A sappy, unbelievable, love story

Warning: Spoilers
There are 82 episodes of I Spy, spend time watching the other 81 unless you like an overly-done romance. Skip this one.

We're supposed to believe that an experienced espionage agent falls in love with a girl and within a few days forgets all his training, loses his instincts, fights his partner, and repeatedly risks his own murder to prove she's not the enemy she appears to be.

There is a fight scene when Scott is fed up with Robinson and the friends fight one another out of anger. It's the only real action in the episode and it was sad to watch instead of exciting.

They do a great job of making Robinson appear as is he's under a spell. The music, the clothes, the scenery, the camera shots, the dialog, and Culp's acting is all very strange. The love story is sickening. It's too extreme and lasts for far too long. It's just unbelievable to see either of the agents act this stupid. I kept hoping that he had been drugged, but the writers didn't even give us that. I fell like I wasted time by watching this episode, surely there can't be an episode worse than this one?

This could have been an awesome 20 minute spy story, but it was turned into a 51 minute episode with nauseating lovy-dovy sap. I'm giving this a episode a rating of 5 stars, only because the ending scene with the girl is worth almost 10 stars.
