AllMovie

Sue Randall, who played Miss Landers on the classic sitcom Leave It to Beaver, appears in this I Spy episode as Louise Richards, the wife of an American pilot captured by Communists. Louise exhorts agents Kelly and Scott to agree to the captors' demands and turn over double agent Eric Thorsten (Kurt Krueger) in exchange for her husband. But Thorsten is nowhere to be found -- and that's only one of the surprise twists in the story. First telecast on November 10, 1965, "No Exchange on Damaged Merchandise" was written by the celebrated team of Garry Marshall and Jerry Belson, normally specialists in situation comedy.
