A Brief Synopsis: Arizona farmer Walter Colby and his wife, Birch, have a problem on their hands: One of their cows was just killed by a creature, but they have no idea what the beast could have been. So they consult local vet Dr. Robert Hansen, who becomes puzzled and calls in scientist Diane Ashley. Eventually, the duo discovers that oversize spiders are invading the small town, putting the entire population in danger as a county fair begins.
Some of the topics discussed and highlights of this episode include:
