Description

The Jupiter 2 lands on a planet whose population appears to be entirely teenagers, and whose activity seems to be one neverending party. Their leader, Bartholomew, explains that they are in age stasis: they are all physically stuck at their current age and need someone (they have in mind Will) to give them his ability to age. At the episode end, the Robinsons leave with Will safely with them. It is then revealed that the aliens are not in age stasis -- they are regressing at the same rate as humans age, and if they don't find someone to give them the ability to grow older they will regress to their origins and cease to exist.
