Storyline
The KGB is looking for one of their people, a man named Dalchimsky because he has stolen something important but, unfortunately, he manages to get through the border. Later in the U.S. some seemingly ordinary people after receiving a phone call go out and destroy key American military installations. Back in the U.S.S.R. General Strelsky and Colonel Malchenko send for Grigori Borzov, a KGB agent who has been to the U.S. on missions before. They inform him that after the U-2 incident in fear of the possibility that a war with the U.S. will occur; they were part of an operation called TELEFON that involved recruiting young agents and then brainwashing them into believing that they are Americans. They would assume the identity of an American who died a long time ago and who would be their age now. They would be situated in a city that is near or where a key U.S. military installation is located... Written by <rcs0411@yahoo.com>

Harley Sandburg: Alright, what is it?
Barbara: Stay out of it. Leave us alone. Just forget the whole thing. Cause, if you don't, if you try to move in on us, the telephones are going to start ringing again and this time the bells are going to be heard all over the world. That's the message.
Harley Sandburg: Clarify, Barbara. I don't understand what that means.
Barbara: I suggest you check it out with the KGB in Moscow, we've just sent them the same message.
[Hangs up the phone, then to Borzov]
Barbara: Now where do we go?

Factual errors: When Hassler's (Ed Bakey) helicopter is approaching the Appalachicola Naval Communications Station, the station's "radar" display shows the blip representing the helicopter move before, and after the the rotational scan; not when it is hit by the beam, as in reality.
