Storyline
| Plot Summary |
Pilot for sci-fi detective series "Search." Hugh O'Brian as Lockwood, a high-tech private eye, was outfitted with two electronic implants (one to hear what was said at HQ and a dental contact he could bite to communicate with HQ--one bite for yes and two bites for no) and a button-sized "scanner" that combined a micro-miniaturized television camera that could also see in infrared spectrum, microphone, medical sensors, and transmitter, putting him in constant contact with a room full of experts monitoring his actions and vital signs and supplying him with encyclopedic information. Burgess Meredith as Cameron, Lockwood's "head kibitzer." Story involves missing diamonds. Series plots tended to be "missing object(s) or person(s)"-type detective stories, rather than murder "whodunits" or "howcatchems."

| Trivia | Bilingual pun: When Lockwood offers his hand to Ulli at the restaurant table, he asks, "May I?" She responds, "Mais oui!" In French, that means "But of course!" However, the same two syllables in English are "May we!", suggesting a more intimate invitation. See more » |
| Goofs | When the diamond cutter asks at the hotel desk for the room number of Harold Streeter, he is given, in German, the number 371. Later, when Hugh Lockwood calls the room of Harold Streeter, he asks for room number 397. See more » |

[Cameron is discouraging Lockwood's romantic distraction after his dinner with Uli]
Heideline 'Uli' Ullman: It's later... V.C.R. Cameron: Miss Ullman's right. Listen to her! Heideline 'Uli' Ullman: ...and time to go to bed. V.C.R. Cameron: Hold the remarks, everybody! Now Lockwood, you have a long flight ahead of you tomorrow. It's time to assist the young lady to the elevator. [Lockwood offers Uli his hand] Hugh Lockwood: May I? Heideline 'Uli' Ullman: Mais oui! [or "May we!"] Dr. Griffin: If she's speaking French, the lady says "yes". See more » |
