The Five Daughters Affair is a two-part story spanning the twenty-eighth and twenty-ninth episodes of the Third Season of 'The Man from U.N.C.L.E.' and star Robert Vaughn as chief enforcement agent Napoleon Solo and David McCallum as his partner, agent Illya Kuryakin. This two-parter was later re-cut and released in cinemas as a feature-length film titled The Karate Killers.
Synopsis[]
Solo and Illya track down the daughters of a murdered scientist who has discovered how to extract gold from seawater (and hidden the secret among his daughters), but THRUSH agent Randolph, who murdered the scientist, is after the secret as well.[1]
Trivia[]
- A previous title for these episodes was 'The Five Women Affair.'[2]
- While the title refers to five daughters (technically one biological daughter and four stepdaughters) only four daughters actually appear onscreen; The fifth daughter is only referred to in a newspaper article Waverly shows to Solo and Illya.
