Warning: Spoilers
Spoiler Alert !

A Rare 'One Off' Guest Lead feature for Cliff Potts (Potter) as Andrew Hill ,with the episode credited as: 'Starring Cliff Potter' but put under The 'Gene Barry' Segment.

Andrew Hill (Cliff Potts, credited as 'Potter') is Assistant to Millionaire publisher Glenn Howard (Gene Barry), but for once Andy takes on the Lead role in the search following the mistaken identity kidnapping of Peggy Maxwell (Susan Saint James)- who has been researching a story on teenage idol Lincoln Bridges (Don Stroud).

When Peggy, on leaving a Bridges pop concert, is abducted by a gang of young people who thought they had grabbed his wife Cherley (played by the similar looking to Peggy actress Susan Strasberg)

Series Note: Gene Barry actually only makes a few brief cameo appearances 'as Glenn Howard' in this episode, however the story is put under the 'Gene Barry' segment of the show and Barry's face and name credit on the (originally) rotating opening graphic is put up first, plus his face is depicted for the closing theme credits.
