  1. CAESAR’S WIFE
    Original Airdate: Jan. 26, 1969

Synopsis. Claudine Longet stars as Danielle Chabrol, a Parisian ballet dancer whom the Bureau suspects is a Communist spy. Erskine suspects that Chabrol is working with an Eastern European power to extract information about code-green intelligence from Eric Reeverson (played by Michael Rennie), a retired U.S. diplomat now living in Honolulu. Posing as a magazine journalist, Erskine flies to Hawaii, where he enlists the aid of Reeverson’s son, Glen (played by Harrison Ford), to gather evidence against Chabrol. Though Glen himself once romanced Chabrol, he is unaware of her espionage background. Nor does he know that the leader of the spy ring is his father’s neighbor, Jim Kellogg (Russell Johnson)—a ruthless man who would commit murder to protect his operation.
