Proof Through the NightEpisode Number: 5 Season Num: 1 First Aired: Saturday February 11, 1984 Prod Code: 58207 |
Archangel asks Hawke to fly Airwolf into Russia to bring out a double agent who once saved his life, who is now in possession of a deadly toxin developed by Russian scientists. The already risky mission is complicated further by the fact that Hawke and Santini must not only bring back the double agent, but his family, which will total five passengers on-board Airwolf – and the only way to compensate for the extra weight is to strip The Lady of her armament, leaving Hawke and Santini flying into Russian territory unarmed...

(String to Tanya)
String: I like your spunk, but if you don't start speaking English, I'm gonna spank your butt! (edit) Marella: Rostoff is no ordinary agent. On his first assignment he was decorated for saving the life of a fellow agent when the mission went sour
Archangel: Marella
Marella: That agent's name is Michael Coldsmith-Briggs the third, codenamed...
Hawke(guessing): ...Archangel
Archangel: That has nothing to do with it
Hawke(half laughing): Of course not
Archangel: Will you take the mission?
Hawke(laughing): The third', huh
(Marella laughs with him)
Archangel: I wouldn't throw stones, STRINGFELLOW (edit)

In the shot where we see Dominic, from behind, break the window with the rifle butt, it is quite clearly a stunt double – the wig doesn't even look semi-convincing!
(edit)
In the sequence supposedly looking from the front of Airwolf as it flies low over the trees and brush to avoid the Russian jets, at the very end of the shot in the bottom left corner either part of a camera mount, or the front of the landing skid on the filming helicopter, can be seen.

Episode Title: "Proof Through the Night"
The title is a reference to T-Bone Burnett album from 1983 with the same title. (edit)
