Synopsis by Hal Erickson

The fact that Peter Brocco plays a Scandinavian scientist named A.C. Nillson (a punning play on the powerful TV-ratings service A.C. Neilsen) is indication enough that nobody -- least of all scriptwriters Stanley Ralph Ross and Peter Bourne -- was taking this Man From U.N.C.L.E. episode seriously. The inventor of a suspended-animation device, Prof. Nillson is kidnapped by THRUSH kingpin Heinrich Beckman (Robert Emhardt). Future movie-studio executive Lynn Loring is cast as Nillson's daughter, Leila, who helps U.N.C.L.E. agents expedite her father's rescue, while Pamela Curran appears as duplicitous lab assistant Inga Anderson. "The Deadly Smorgasbord Affair" first aired on January 13, 1967.
