Mission: Impossible (1966)
S03E01 The Heir Apparent
Episode Overview
The Archbishop of Povia faces the challenge of selecting a regent to take the place of the late king, who had no heirs. General Qaisette is poised to launch a coup if he isn’t appointed. Meanwhile, rumors circulate from the IMF that Princess Celine, who vanished during her childhood, is set to return. Cinnamon delves into Celine's history. Barney and Willey lead Qaisette to Phelps, where they find an elderly, blind Celine, also known as Cinnamon. Rollin poses as a doctor familiar with the "real" Celine’s disabled arm, convincing Qaisette he can use the "imposter" to undermine the Archbishop. However, with Barney's assistance, Cinnamon passes all challenges, and Rollin cleverly escapes before Qaisette can summon him. Ultimately, Cinnamon, disguised as Celine, has Qaisette arrested and then steps down from the throne, vanishing again.
