Steve Austin teams up with a KGB agent, Andrea Mastrova, to track down stolen U.S. smart missiles developed by the OSI and a stolen Russian missile launching tank both taken by a man named Santos. Unbeknownst to Steve, his life may be in additional danger if Mastova finds out that he is responsible for her father's death. Written by D. Nagle
The final TV episode of the series. Plot is somewhat similar to the highly successful 1977's James Bond classic, 'The Spy Who Loved Me'.
Season 5 is a definite mixed bag for the highly popular series from the 70's, unfortunately. This episode, is entertaining and cashes in on the 'Cold War' era of the time. The 5th season tried something different, from the previous seasons and in some cases in did fairly well, while others, simply seemed tired and contrived. Less Bionics and more plot in many of the episodes, which may have also turned viewers off in the 77-78 season, where the series fell completely out of the top 30!! The previous two seasons, the series had finished in the top 10.
This episode is simply decent, but fails to conclude the series with a proper, well deserved finale it should have had. We had to wait 10 years for the return of Lee Majors as Steve Austin!
