Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Series regular Ivan Dixon appears in a dual role as POW Kinchloe and the visiting Prince Makabana from Africa. Kidnapping the prince, Hogan has Kinchloe pose as the potentate during a meeting with the German top brass, who hope to open a submarine base in Makabana's country. Hogan's plans threaten to come apart at the seams when the Prince's wife, Princess Yawanda (Isabelle Cooley), unexpectedly shows up. Written by Richard M. Powell, "The Prince From the Phone Company" first aired on March 18, 1966.
