Fairly good episode of Thriller which, unfortunately, falls apart due to the unbelievable disguise taken by one of the villains.
Defector says he will only turn himself over to one person he trusts who happens to be Charles Gray with that unmistakable voice, mannerisms and physical presence. Basically the villains (Russian agents we presume) kill him and one of them assumes his identity. I am all for suspending some disbelief but to replicate Charles Gray (or anyone really) is just too much. Mission Impossible used this routine too much and basically ended up losing my interest. Decent episode until then!
