Featured review
A broad departure from the rest of the series...
This is one of my top ten AGS episodes. Susan Oliver is fantastic as the sultry nameless, overnight prisoner, who brings out Andy's vulnerability. At times it's hard to tell if Susan is being sincere or just a con artist. I suspect it is a bit of both. She appears to be somewhat taken aback by Andy's kind, unselfish nature. In this broad departure from the rest of the series, the sexual tension between Andy and Susan is thick enough to cut with a knife. It also has its hilarious moments too, with Barney falling all over himself to impress Susan. Highly recommended viewing!
