5.0 out of 5 stars One of UNCLE's 2nd Season BEST!!, September 1, 2001

By 

Priscilla Stafford (Yokohama, Japan) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Man from U.N.C.L.E., Volume 9: The Foxes and Hounds Affair / The Discotheque Affair (UNCLE) [VHS] (VHS Tape)

"The Foxes and Hounds Affair" and "The Discotheque Affair" are what I think are UNCLE's 2nd season best, besides "The Deadly Toys Affair", "The Dippy Blonde Affair", and "The Minus X Affair".

Episode 33 "The Foxes and Hounds Affair": Illya Kuryakin (David McCallum) tries to obtain a thought-reading device from a magician but when they do, he and his companion are separated while Victor Marton (Vincent Price) and his THRUSH thugs are chasing them in Europe. Illya gets back to New York safely but his companion, who has the device tries to come back to New York through another route. Alexander Waverly (Leo G. Carroll) sends Napoleon Solo (Robert Vaughn) out as a decoy for Marton and his THRUSH rival Lucia Belmont (Patricia Medina), without Napoleon having a clue of what's going on! Mimi Doolittle (Julie Sommars), the magician's assistand is drawn into the wild goose chase. While Illya chooses a destination in which the agent carrying the device can land in New York, Napoleon and Mimi are captured. Soon Illya is also captured. Can THRUSH get information out of Illya to find the device? * A definite five-star episode!! Illya and Napoleon are terrific, getting great lines and get to do a lot. One of my favorite scenese is the fight at the funeral house where Illya accidentally punches Napoleon!

Episode 34 "The Discotheque Affair": While UNCLE is trying to find a load of THRUSH records hidden under a discotheque, The Bealer's, THRUSH plants a listening device in the apartment next to Alexander Waverly's office. Because Napoleon's arm is broken, Illya is put in charge of the section two's involvement in infiltrating the discotheque and Napoleon is assigned to take care of a rent dispute with a tenant, Sandy Wyler (Judi West). In her apartment, he finds the device. As UNCLE feeds out false information to the planted listening device, Illya infiltrates the discotheque, run by THRUSH agent Vincent Carver (Ray Danton), posing as a musician. Carver tells Tiger Ed (Harvey Lembeck) to kill Carver's girlfriends, Farina (Evelyn Ward), but Napoleon rescues her and she helps him, only to switch sides again. * Another great episode!! I always enjoy hearing Illya and Napoleon banter. Illya looks pretty cool in this episode when he poses as a musician, wearing a white turtleneck, a reddish suit, and dark sunglasses. Well, actually, he looks cool whenever he appears!! I also like all the dancing they do at the discotheque.

UNCLE rules!! If you love "Man from UNCLE", don't forget to watch these episodes!!
