    This episode of "The F.B.I." is about a fanatic who is bent on doing the seemingly impossible...to destroy a missile! He (Robert Duvall) plans on using a grenade launcher to attack a truck carrying the missile to a testing ground...and Inspector Erskine and his team have on a short amount to time to catch the guy before he can strike. So, they need to connect the dots to figure out who the maniac is and where he plans to strike.

    This is a pretty good and tense episode. My only disappointment was Duvall's character...he seemed like a cipher and didn't talk much. I am sure he played it as the director instructed...but a more fleshed out character would have proven to be more interesting. Still well worth seeing.
