yeah, Napoleon, stop dragging poor Illya into your whirling mess of plots and schemes

More Five Things about The Man From U.N.C.L.E.! I've decided to stop LJ-cutting them (the better to pimp you with, my dear...) until someone complains. :)

1.07 "The Giuoco Piano Affair"

1. Napoleon: "They know me; if I were to show up in the area, they'd try and kill me. Would that help anything?" Waverly: "Only Mr. Kuryakin. Who's next in line for promotion."

2. Illya's idea of a gift to a pretty woman? Half a burned life preserver from an enemy's exploded yacht. (And the man just can't help kibitzing on someone else's chess game. Or reading someone else's typing over their shoulder. I love him.)

3. Gun in a lighter! Spy gadgets are the best. :D

4. Did Napoleon really just a) deftly employ a complex chess metaphor (*swoon*) and b) call Illya his "white knight"?

5. You don't see helicopters that can land on water much anymore. Why is that?
