Most Trekkies would be able to tell you that the original series "Star Trek" episode "Assignment: Earth" was meant to be a backdoor pilot. "Assignment: Earth" heavily featured a then-new character named Gary Seven (Robert Lansing) a time-traveler from the 24th century. Gary Seven was discovered by the crew of the U.S.S. Enterprise after it had traveled back to the 20th century for research purposes.
Kirk (William Shatner) and Spock (Leonard Nimoy) briefly interact with Gary, but the bulk of the episode focuses on his adventures and the sci-fi widgets he has at his disposal. Gary carries around a futuristic, screwdriver-like device he calls a Servo and can teleport around Earth through a high-tech portal built into a vault in his office. He's accompanied by Isis -- a cat who, in a mysterious turn of events, transforms into...

In the "Star Trek" episode "Assignment: Earth", the Enterprise travels back in time to the year 1968 -- something, it seems, the Enterprise can just do -- for historical research purposes. While in hiding out in orbit, however, Captain Kirk (William Shatner) and Spock (Leonard Nimoy) detect that someone else nearby is using super-advanced transporter technology, meaning they aren't the only time travelers in the vicinity. Interrupting a transporter signal, the Enterprise beams aboard a handsome and mysterious stranger holding a black cat. This is Gary Seven (Robert Lansing), a time traveler from the 24th century, which is a century beyond from where Kirk came from.
Gary Seven announces that he is on a mission of his own, and that it is of the utmost importance. It involved taking over control of a nuclear missile, however, so Gary doesn't seem very trustworthy.
