"The Children of Spider County" is an episode of the original "The Outer Limits" television show. It first aired on 17 February, 1964, during the first season.
Opening narration
"In light of today's growing anxieties, it has become more absolute that the wealth of a nation consists in the number of superior men that it harbors. It is therefore a matter of deep concern, and deeper consequence, when four of the most magnificent and promising young minds in the country suddenly disappear off the face of the Earth..."
Plot
A group of young prodigies have vanished, and it is noted that they all hailed from the same remote area. An government agent sent to investigate finds that one young prodigy is still there - and his alien patriarch is planning a family reunion somewhere other than Earth.
Closing narration
"The wealth of a nation, of a world, consists in the number of superior men that it harbors, and often it seems that these men are too different, too dreaming. And often, because they are driven by powers and dreams strange to us, they are driven away by us. But are they really so different? Are they not, after all, held by the same things that hold us-by strong love, and soft hands?"
