Lynda gets to shine in this outing
shakspryn12 February 2020
Good, exciting episode, with an intricate plot that pays off very nicely. Lynda is really key to the story and has some good scenes, which MI fans will appreciate, since she makes such a fine MI team member. As longtime fans will know, a big challenge in Seasons 6 and 7 is the focus on organized crime in the USA, and keeping the series interesting when we are dealing with the same sort of bad guys so often. Part of the merit of this episode is that we get three stand-out bad guys: James Gregory, a veteran of many TV roles, here an Irish guy; Brad Dexter, very effective as a high-up villain, whom many will recognize from The Magnificent Seven movie; and Charles Dierkop, who is very recognizable, at that time, as a 1970's style sleazy hood. I think I must have seen him in similar roles. The plot is a clever one, and I especially like that the episode ends in classic MI style. Fans will like that! Watch it and see what I mean.
