Steed suspects that there's more than meets the eye when a scientist's lab is broken into but not robbed -- at least, not obviously robbed. Investigating, Steed and Cathy follow the trail of evidence to the "golden eggs" of the title, each of which contains a deadly viral microbe. Racing against time, Cathy (who knows more about biochemistry than Steed) tries to prevent a wholesale epidemic. Written by Martin Woodhouse, "The Golden Eggs" was originally telecast in England on February 2, 1963, then was shown on American cable TV on February 21st. . .28 years later.
