Van Johnson forgot to bring his acting shoes for this role. He is as boring a super criminal as any in the series. He is presented as sort of a electronic hacking type of guy whose main thing is messing with the stock market back in the days when circuits and bugs were high tech. Even Johnson's singing is second rate. He needs the Archer's (Art Carney's) Applause machine to liven him up.
What is really fun here is the use of the Bat Drone. For those who have not realized in recent times, drones actually date back a long ways and the one that is used here is really high tech for the 1960's. Alfred the butler even gets to operate it.
The Drone is used to help find the Minstrels hideout. When the dynamic duo arrives, the Minstrel puts them on a rotisserie for a little barbecue he is planning. In part 2 we find out if his singing gets better, the duo gets well done, and does he add A-1 sauce.
Stay tuned for the next one, same bad acting, same cooking channel.
