"Perfect"

By marvelfan89, Jun 03, 2007

I rated this higher than the other episodes because this definitely had a bigger storyline. There was an essence here of a big budget movie made into a tv episode.

In other words, this episode felt a lot bigger in terms of story and there were a lot of things going on here that were interesting.

We see a couple of limo's pull up to Santini's place. They look like government agents and put their mittens where they please. Dominic and Hawke don't know what the hell is going on. Then suddenly a beautiful woman shows up and explains the whole situation. They want to hire the facility and the men for services. Hawke doesn't like the whole deal but really his whole beef in my opinion is about being bought so easily by the all mighty dollar almost like a paid escort.

Then there is the sidestory about a sadistic killer (excellently played by Gregg Henry) whose bugging the whole place and is planning to kill the employer who hired Dominic for their services. Henry is a veteran tv and movie actor and he is great as the cold blooded killer here (including one scene where he kills his girlfriend with a silencer right after kissing her.).

I'am not going to spoil the rest but this was definitely one of the better episodes of Season 2.moreless

TRIVIA (2)
ADD TRIVIA
- During the aerial dog-fight at the climax, several very noticeable reversed shots of Hawke, as well Dom (and the computer bank beside him), and Airwolf herself, are reversed.
  EDIT SHARE
- The photos that Robert develops includes a familiar stock photo of Jan-Michael Vincent – his hair is noticeably longer (1st season style) than it is in this episode! There's no way Robert could have taken this picture.

- (Airwolf's chain gun ammo is depleted while battling the Corsair) String: It's empty. Dominic: It was enough.

NOTES (3)
ADD NOTES
- The version of the theme tune used during the aerial dog-fight at the climax of the story, would go on to be the standard closing theme tune for the series (with an opening credits equivalent version used from 'Fallen Angel'). Here is the only time that this version is played right through in it's entirety, and is the longest rendition of the theme ever heard anywhere in the series.
  EDIT SHARE
- This is the only episode where we get to see Caitlin's apartment.
