A manipulative femme fatale delights in courting men and seeing just how far they will go to keep her affection.

Seemed that each act had very different focus, and that there were many elements to the entire story that were only loosely strung together. What I did notice was that the dialogue was extremely tight - a lot of information packed into each sentence. For that reason, this episode required more 'brain power' than most episodes. Lithgow's delivery is amazingly sharp and finished even then as it is today.

The whole dagger business seemed irrelevant - would have been better if it were an ancient lip balm, or cosmetic.

I was cringing at the horrifying attempt at a Pakistani accent!!
