Featured review
The return of Burkhalter's sister makes for a top-notch comedy
After the previous episode that was less than expected, this episode returns the series to a favorable effort. With the return of General Burkhalter's sister, Gertrude Linkmyer (Kathleen Freeman), this story hits all the right button from entertainment to the funny-bone. Gertrude will resume her affections for Klink as her brother visits the Stalag. And as always Klink is trying to avoid the female at any cost.
The episode begins when the Gestapo arrest a young girl that is working for the underground. Since the girl knows much about the underground operations, Hogan must think of a way to free the young teenager. If they only had someone that they could trade for the girl. Insert Gertrude Linkmyer.
Hogan's men kidnap the General's sister and hold her pending the release of the girl. But before that happens we get some hilarious scenes that involve most of the cast.
From Klink, Hochstetter and Burkhalter to Sgt Schultz having a rendezvous with a mysterious woman-- this show was filled with entertainment. But it is Kathleen Freeman that seems to make this show work. One of the better episode in the collection
