The Germans capture Saunders (Vic Morrow) and place him in a makeshift prison compound along with three other newly acquired American prisoners: Sgt. Mike Martin (Claude Akins) and privates Coker (Ed Peck) and Murray (Carl Reindel). What Saunders doesn't know is that one of his three fellow POWs is a Nazi spy posing as an American. It is the spy's assignment to befriend his fellow prisoners and worm vital information out of them. Though Saunders knows enough not to reveal any secrets in front of anyone no matter what the circumstances, at least one of his "comrades" isn't quite so careful. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

In this episode, we learn that Sgt. Saunders (Vic Morrow) has a kid brother back home. We also learn that, much against the sergeant's wishes, his brother has joined the Army. Almost simultaneously, youthful private Jim Hummel (Randy Boone) is assigned to King Company. Profoundly affected by the fact that Hummel bears a striking resemblance to his brother, Saunders uncharacteristically lets his heart rule his head ,and goes out of his way to protect the rookie private from harm. This results in a great deal of resentment from the other men--and from Hummel himself. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

Heavy on slapstick and light on the more subtle forms of humor, this standard comedy by Frank Tashlin is still an amusing junket with Danny Kaye at the forefront as Ernie Klenk, a bumbling employee of the Diner's Club credit card company. Ernie has his hands full trying to manage the new computers (maybe they were all new at this point in time) and a bullying boss. His job is to okay the credit line of new customers and after he does just that with Foots Pulardos (Telly Savalas) he may have made his last serious mistake. Foots is facing trial for tax evasion and when he discovers that he and Ernie have an odd physical trait in common, he hits upon a scheme to fake his own death by immolating most of the hapless employees and then escaping the country disguised as Ernie. ~ Eleanor Mannikka, All Movie Guide
