The criminal Red Sanders is being pursued by the Planeteers through uncharted space. He wishes there was a suitable planet for him to hide on, and, lo, one appears. Much to his surprise, when wishing for a town that appears also. When Tommy and Brent land on that same planet, they too discover the power of mind over matter. Following a thrust and parry game of mental dangers, Tommy finally wishes that the world would disappear. With no air or spacesuit, Sanders is easily captured.
