Synopsis by Hal Erickson

Solo and Illya are assigned to guard Lillian Stemmler (Eve Arden), the inventor of the mind-altering drugs Plus X (which sharpens the senses) and Minus X (which dulls them). Unbeknownst to the two UNCLE agents, Dr. Stemmler is in cahoots with THRUSH operative Rollo (Theo Marcuse). By the time Stemmler has had a change of heart, Rollo has abducted her daughter Leslie (Sharon Farrell) as the first step in a scheme to steal a deadly plutonium bomb. King Moody, best known for his lengthy TV-commercial stint as Ronald McDonald, is here cast as Whittaker. Written by Peter Allan Fields, "The Minus X Affair" originally aired on April 8, 1966.
