As many of you know, vault break-ins were one of the stock plots used on "M:I". What are some of your favorite vault break-ins? Why are they some of your...

I have posted a piece about 'The Mind of Stefan Miklos' in the Favourite Episodes album. If anyone has a problem opening the file, let me know. Jimmy...
In an earlier post, I mentioned my favorite vault break-in episodes, and failed to mention one of my all-time favorites: "Kidnap" from season six or seven....
Yes, I remember this episode. This is the only Mission episode directed by Peter Graves - Jim does not feature much in the episode. I must write a piece on...
"Recovery" is also a good break-in (and out) episode where they also have to kidnap a defected scientist to boot! tsb_artist <tsb_artist@...> wrote: As...
I forgot the episode names but there was one with William Shatner as an aged mobster convinced he was back in time, a UFO episode, and a post- WWIII episode...
Don't know about the other two episodes, but the Shatner one is called "Encore" and is featured in the sites favorite eps folder. It is a terrific episode,...

YES!! I used to fantasize about being Jim Phelps when I grew up. I wanted to lead and mastermind an IMF team that would travel around the world overthrowing ...
I agree that "Recovery" is not a vault break-in as such. I feel it's an interesting variation on the show's vault break-in formula. I love the way the IMF ...
I emphatically agree. I mentioned the emergency room sequence in an earlier post. I think the added challenge of having to get an unwilling scientist out ...
Jimmy, thanks for the reminder about Lynda Day George in "Reprisal." It's one of the few episodes from the new series I really like. I enjoyed the climax...
