This was not an easy episode to sit through, simply because two of the characters were loud and continually abrasive, I wanted to hit the "mute" button. They were guest actor Jules Munshin, playing Russian Commissar Malonov, and my pal Joe E. Ross as "Officer Toody." Normally, I love Ross but when he was paired with Munshin, the two of them would drive anyone nuts. "Abrasive" doesn't begin to cover it, especially with Munshin's over-acting.
There is a female Russian in here, too. While Toody escorts "General Raskonokov" (Mara Lynn) around town, "Francis Muldoon" (Fred Gwynne) escorts her. Lynn provided the only laughs for me in this story as she changes from the normal anti-capitalist, bombastic communist to a wild woman who does a complete makeover and winds up doing a striptease!! She's pretty funny the most the show is not.
