The Six Million Dollar Man is a classic science fiction television show about astronaut Steve Austin who was severely injured in a crash and rebuilt with bionic body parts that give him superhuman strength and abilities. In season 4 episode 24, titled The Ghostly Teletype, Steve is called upon to investigate a bizarre and deadly situation involving a haunted teletype machine.

The episode opens with Steve meeting his old friend and colleague, Dr. Randolph, as he arrives at his lab. Dr. Randolph informs Steve that his teletype machine has been sending him messages that no one can explain. At first, he thought it was a malfunction in the device but as the messages continue to come through, he becomes convinced that it's something or someone else trying to communicate with him.

Steve is skeptical and tries to dismiss it as a simple technical problem, but his mind is changed when they witness the teletype machine seemingly operating on its own, typing a message that reads "I AM HERE." Dr. Randolph and Steve decide to investigate and try to communicate with whatever is responsible.

Upon further investigation, they discover that the teletype is communicating with a computer at a military base and after some research, they learn that the computer is actually programmed to communicate with the afterlife. Skeptical as he is, Steve embarks on a mission to find out what's going on and where the messages could be coming from.

As Steve digs deeper into the situation, he uncovers a string of disappearances that all have one thing in common – they all worked with teletype machines. Steve believes that they may have all been victims of some sort of ghostly encounter. Steve, along with Dr. Randolph, meets with one of the engineers who disappeared, and they discover that he was working on a project involving communication with the afterlife before he disappeared. Steve comes to believe that the victims of the ghostly encounters were all selected because they had a knowledge of the teletype machine and its ability to communicate with the other side.

As the investigation progresses, Steve uncovers a plan by a group of scientists at the military base to use the teletype machine to communicate with a deceased scientist. The group believes that by tapping into the afterlife, they can gain knowledge that will help them win the Cold War. However, it turns out that the "dead scientist" they're communicating with is actually a hostile alien who is using the teletype machine to communicate with Earth.

The situation escalates quickly and Steve, armed with his bionic abilities, fights to ensure that the alien doesn't take over the planet. In the final moments of the episode, Steve faces off against the alien in a tense showdown that ends with a surprising twist.

In The Ghostly Teletype, The Six Million Dollar Man delivers an entertaining and suspenseful episode that explores the boundaries of science and the supernatural. With an engaging storyline, great performances, and some thrilling action sequences, this episode is sure to keep viewers on the edge of their seats.
