Agent 86 accesses the entry to CONTROL |
Entry to CONTROL (a spoof on the tailor shop
entrance seen on the spy adventure THE MAN FROM U.N.C.L.E.) was accessed by
walking down a corridor filled with a series of automated steel doors which
swung open or slid horizontally and vertically.
At the end of the long hallway, a lone phone booth provided access to the
entrance to CONTROL headquarters. The agent stepped into the booth, inserted a
coin, and dialed the phone and then dropped out of sight through a trapdoor.
At conclusion of each episode as Agent Maxwell Smart exited CONTROL, he
noticed that the final door did not close properly. Stepping up to investigate,
the door shuts on his nose. Ouch, that Smarts!
