Effie - The E.F.I. 3000 multi-function computer (aka
"Effie") was the main computer used by a top-secret organization known as
UNIT on the espionage adventure A MAN CALLED SLOANE/NBC/1979-80.
| Effie: |
And thank you, Effie. Maybe when this
thing is all wrapped up we can, ah, have a little dinner. |
| DiGeorgio: |
Dinner? Mr. DiGeorgio |
| Director: |
I'm afraid not, Jimmy. Effie, why don't
we tell Mr. DiGeorgio here, a little about your qualifications. |
| Effie: |
I am a E.F.I. Series 3000 multi-function
computer, Mr. DiGeorgio. I occupy 27 square feet and weigh 6 and
one-half tons. It would be difficult to join you for dinner. But thank
you , Mr. DiGeorgio |
| DeGeorgio: |
It's a computer. |
| Director: |
The voice, of course, is Thomas Sloane's
doing. |
| DiGeorgio: |
Ah, we don't have anything like that in
Washington |
| Director: |
But then, of course, you don't have TR
Sloane. |

-- from episode "Death Ray 2000" |
Effie was
programmed with a sexy, husky female voice (Michele Carey) and readily gave
advice to secret agents Thomas Remington Sloane III (Robert Conrad), his
partner Torgue (Ji-Tu Cumbuka) and the Director of UNIT (Dan O'Herlihy).
E.F.I. has a romantic crush on Thomas Sloane.
