Synopsis by Hal Erickson

This Untouchables episode is the second pilot film for an unsold spinoff series titled White Knights. Dane Clark and John Gabriel repeat their roles from the earlier episode "Bird in the Hand" as Doctors Garr and Gifford of the U.S. Public Health Service. Investigating an outbreak of paralysis in the Midwest, Garr and Gifford determine that the source of the epidemic is a huge supply of bad bootleg whiskey. Worried that a hijacked shipment of alcohol-based hair tonic will be used to manufacture even more of the lethal booze, Elliot Ness (Robert Stack) releases the hijacker from prison, hoping he will lead the Feds to the bootleggers' secret headquarters. Featured in the role of Mary Kay Spencer is Sondra Kerr, later billed as Sondra Blake.
