Cat Out of the Bag Alert! This review contains spoilers for this episode!
Synopsis: Jason King (Peter Wyngarde) is in Paris when he finds out that there has been a bounty put out for his death.
Kitty Cameo: While investigating the person behind the hit order, Jason hides himself in a crate and has it delivered to the warehouse of Jean Cazette (Cyril Shaps). While trying to get out of the crate, Jason makes some noise which Jean hears. Jean investigates as a black cat walks nearby.
The cat then accidentally knocks a hammer off a crate and Jean assumes that was the noise he heard.
If you look closely, you can see the string tied to the hammer to pull it off the box when the cat jumps down, assuring it will fall.
Final Mewsings: Cats usually don’t need help knocking things over.
Many thanks to Ted Davis for letting us know about the cat in this episode!
