"The Hunt" is an episode of "The Outer Limits" television show. It was first broadcast on 23 January, 1998 during the fourth season.

Introduction

The hunting of animals has been banned and black market hunting of obsolete androids takes its place.

Opening narration

:"Humankind has proven to be unique among lifeforms, distinguished not only by it’s lofty intelligence, morality and self awareness, but also by a baser side... it is the only creature that kills for sport."

Plot

A group of obsolete androids (a doctor, a miner, and two others) attempt to escape from the hunters during the beginning of the hunt. They find a way to remove their inhibitors (chips that keep them from confronting and/or attacking the humans), allowing them to set traps instead of merely running away. One of their traps kills the son of the lead hunter. However, none but the miner android survives to reach the end of the hunting area. A police officer tells him he is free because he has survived the hunt. In the next scene, another group of androids are unloaded for another hunt. The hunter that informs them what they are about to endure is the android who survived the first hunt.

Closing narration

:"As machines grow more human, we must be wary that we do not become... less so."
