Split into two episodes for syndication, this episode is both a pilot for a spinoff show about young investigator Richie Brockelman, and an issue episode tackling the growing use of private data by unscrupulous private entities (in this instance, a technophile villain played to great effect by Jackie Cooper). Still relevant today, we found this episode to be a well-told story that blended all of its agendas well into an entertaining and memorable whole. Highly recommended! 2:04:50 no Nathan and Eppy finally tackle a long-anticipated long episode, S4E21 The House on Willis Avenue.

We mention the Privacy Act of 1974 in our ending summary. Here's the Department of Justice page (https://www.justice.gov/opcl/privacy-act-1974) on the act itself, and here's the text of the report of the Privacy Protection Study Commission (the text on which we think the final screen is based): Personal Privacy in an Information Society (https://epic.org/privacy/ppsc1977report/).
