    Storyline

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      Like the later script THE SCENT OF ROSES, this episode was to begin with some light-hearted banter between Michael and K.I.T.T. to contrast the dramatic scenes later on. Michael suggests K.I.T.T. has a custom paint-job with lettering and pin-striping; K.I.T.T. is humorless at the prospect, and reminds us he doesn't have a paint job - he has a Molecular Bonded Shell.
    • Goofs
      Obvious Trans Am model as KITT is sinking into the acid pit.
    • Quotes

      Michael Knight: I thought you were one of those old type heroes, you know. The kind who just drove off into the sunset, secure in the knowledge that you could handle any situation that might arise.

      K.I.T.T.: I don't know if those old time heroes were so much. I mean they always drank sarsaparilla and never kissed the girl. Well what was all that about? Michael? Michael?

      [Michael is busy kissing the girl]

    From the ashes
    A well developed storyline and some cool shots of Kitt. The acting was fairly decent also, even from supporting staff. Loved Michael and Bonnie's chemistry.
