A deadly trio

Although they never left Warner Brothers back lot this episode takes us to several places all over the world ranging from Honolulu, to Los Angeles, to Paris in search of a deadly trio of con artists who set people up and shoot them with some kind of nerve agent that paralyzes them. The effects if not permanent are long lasting.

Efrem Zimbalist, Jr. retained by the bonding company to investigate and recover the proceeds from a robbery of one of their messengers is the one who notices a pattern that only Interpol might have spotted. He gets a bit of aid and assistance from fellow Warner Brother PI Robert Conrad from Hawaiian Eye and later the French Surete.

The trio is Cloris Leachman, Dayton Lummis, and Sherwood Price. Lummis and Leachman are married and like to live well. Price is more the muscle end. These people are not fools and have absolutely no conscience at all with what they do.

Besides Robert Conrad and Poncie Ponce from Hawaiian Eye, Peter, Paul and Mary make a musical guest appearance during a nightclub sequence.

Reason enough to watch this outstanding episode from the series.
