I give this story and 8.5. One of the episodes I still remember from when it was originally broadcast. I was 14 years old then. This episode has lots of style with one fine babe, who was integral to the plot. High rollers and more cold war intrigue. I thought this episode had some of the best acting by guest stars in the series to date. There was little room for the usual campyness and all played it quite seriously. Roddy McDowll plays his character role very well. Drama and tension all roll of the little screen. Alexander Mundy is under the gun with a time constraint not of his own making. I find this episode to be so good because Alexander Mundy was beaten by an SIA device. Yet, as a true con artist, he found a way to even the score in the end.
