I call "A Spool There Was" a low budget episode of the series because it inexplicably only has a couple agents in the show. While you hear Daniel Briggs' voice and see him at the beginning, he, Barney and Willy are all absent. Instead, Cinnamon and Rollin handle this case all by themselves.
It seems that an American agent was recently captured in an enemy country. While they got the agent, the repressive regime did not get the important secrets he was carrying--which are recorded on a wire. However, they know that a recording probably does exist and they have been looking for it. So, how would Cinnamon and Rollin possibly come up with the wire when it's been right under the enemy's nose the whole time?
While this episode has a bit less action than normal, the story is solid. Plus I really enjoyed the rather funny prerecorded sexy banter between the two that they used to convince local authorities that Rollin was in Cinnamon's room. The dialog is pretty cute. Overall, while I wouldn't have wanted a lot of missions like this, it worked well here and is well worth seeing.
