The series co-starred Dan O'Herlihy as The Director, a government agent who often gave Sloane assignments. The series was cancelled after twelve episodes due to low ratings and poor reviews.
The Seduction Squad (Episode 2)[edit | edit source]
Sloane investigates when several men sabotage key U.S. defense projects. He discovers that Edward Denton (Robert Culp) uses a mind-controlling chemical to program the men. The drug is spread via the lipstick worn by Denton's henchwomen.
