Episode Overview
Miklos Klaar, a filmmaker from behind the Iron Curtain, possesses footage of American soldiers that he intends to edit into a propaganda piece aimed at tarnishing the U.S. image. He has built a jungle set based on the sole print of his film. Disguised as a Ministry of Propaganda officer, Rollin sabotages the print while Barney floods the negative vault, forcing Klaar to reshoot his American scenes. Cameraman David Day is secretly brought in to capture Klaar recreating the footage. On press day, David and Willy evade Klaar's guards and broadcast the footage of Klaar rehearsing with his cast, celebrating their fictitious massacre.
