"Choirs of Angels" is the twelfth episode of season 1 of War of the Worlds. It premiered on January 16, 1989.
In syndication and on streaming, "Choirs of Angels" is sometimes listed as the thirteenth episode of the season. This happens when the series premiere episode, "The Resurrection", is split into two episodes.
Plot[]
The aliens plant subliminal messages in a musician's recordings to brainwash a brilliant scientist into creating a cure for them against the bacteria on Earth.
Synopsis[]
The aliens use taped music with an addictive implant to hypnotize biologist Dr. Eric von Deer into developing a serum against Earth's bacteria. Suzanne arrives to study cell phase-matching with von Deer. Harrison, given a copy of the tape, succumbs to the "embed" and becomes irrational, siding with the aliens.
Meanwhile, Suzanne, suspicious of von Deer's odd behavior, subdues him, discovers his serum and alerts Norton and Ironhorse. Harrison, deprived of the music, recovers. Norton destroys von Deer's computer records. Suzanne poisons the serum with ammonia. The aliens give up the project.
