Great, early "Mission: Impossible" episode with a clever POV., 26 January 2006
Author: S.C. Skafte from Nova Scotia, Canada

Though only the third episode of "Mission: Impossible", this one is quite clever in it's scripting and point-of-view. With nearly the entire first half told through the eyes of terrorist-for-hire Imry Rogosh (Fritz Weaver), a different sort of tone is set. Director Leonard J. Horn and writer Jerome Ross (both veterans of "The Untouchables") did a fine job with this episode, sustaining suspense quite well.

Steven Hill gets into a fight, Barbara Bain tips the scales of justice (and beauty), and Peter Lupus does his stuff. One of the best season one episodes.
