This week's episode was, "Code Name: Stranded." In this installment some of the Team boat off to an "uninhabited" Mexican island for a picnic and R&R. Of course, they forget to anchor the boat so they get stranded. To make matters worse, their is a loony Viet Nam vet (is there any other kind?) on the island who still things he's in 'Nam. Well, it goes pretty much as you would expect: gunfire, snake attack, poisonous spider attack, exploding hut and bikinis. There is *only* one crypto tie-in (and it's a stretch). They communicated an SOS to the remaining Team members by juryrigging an old field radio without a microphone, so that they could send Morse code. No Fabio, plenty of exposed Alison Armitage.
