"Full Moon on the Highway" - Jack and Lissa Russell are on the Ventura Freeway rushing home to chain him before the moon rises and he becomes the Werewolf. Unfortunately, a jackknifed truck has caused a traffic jam as dusk approaches. The truck is carrying lab animals, including five rabid wolves which escaped in the accident. Jack can wait no longer and runs from his car. As the Werewolf, he comes upon the wolves menacing two women, and when the pack leaders senses him, it turns to attack him instead. They struggle as the women run to safety. Finally, the Werewolf breaks his foe's neck. The police manage to net the other wolves, nearly capturing the Werewolf in the process. He rips through the mesh and reaches the forest.
