It's silliness on the high seas as two sneaky sailors race across the South Pacific in this fast-paced and campy comedy. The fun begins when one bets the other $20,000 that he, with an all girl crew, be the first to Tahiti in a sailboat race. The other, not to be outdone, has a few monkeyshines up his sleeve and actually wins the race. The beaten bettor then makes the claim, that he can beat the victor to the mainland using a crew comprised of baboons. That is too much to resist for the other and the race is on. ~ Sandra Brennan, All Movie Guide

Again behind enemy lines, Hanley (Rick Jason) and Caje (Pierre Jalbert) assume the task of rescuing a headstrong French nun named Sister Therese (Jeanette Nolan) and the three convent girls in her care. Thing of it is, the ladies don't want to be rescued: The girls insist upon returning to their ailing Mother Superior, while Sister Therese is determined to retrieve a precious religious icon called The Infant of Prague--which happens to be in the hands of the Nazis! Filmed earlier in Season Two, this episode was held back from telecast until Easter Week of 1964. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
