The second episode of the evening was “The Project Strigas Affair.” Taking a page out of the Impossible Missions Force playbook, the plot this time had Solo and Illya seeking to completely destroy an Eastern European politician’s political future without killing him. The guest cast included Werner Klemperer as the politician. What truly makes this episode stand out, though, is that it’s the first onscreen pairing of Leonard Nimoy and William Shatner.
