Doctor James Hamilton develops a device that allows him to experience the thoughts and feelings of another person.
Opening narration
Plot
At an outpost in Greenland, an officer (Guardino) begins losing his grip on reality after losing one of his soldiers in an icy crevice. Haunted by a spectre of the dead man, the officer decides he must detonate an atomic device at the outpost to obliterate the crevice - and the outpost as well. The outpost doctor (Merrill) uses a revolutionary mind probe in an attempt to understand what is driving the officer mad. When an unexpected earthquake causes the probe to malfunction, the minds of the doctor and the officer are switched. This new identity enables the insane officer to set about his plan for destruction in the guise of the doctor, while the "real" doctor is confined to a padded cell.
