Synopsis by Hal Erickson
To foil a new German plan to distribute counterfeit money, Hogan must steal the counterfeit plates -- which rest in a briefcase handcuffed to the wrist of an enemy courier. The only solution is to create a diversion by convincing the Germans that an Allied agent has parachuted into Stalag 13. Frequent Hogan's Heroes supporting player Parley Baer shows up in the role of Julius Schlager. Written by Phil Sharp, "The Empty Parachute" first aired on December 5, 1969.
