Torque - Black secret agent on the espionage adventure A MAN CALLED SLOANE/NBC/1979-80.  Torque (Ji-Tu Cumbuka) is a 6-foot 5-inch spy with a bone-crushing stainless steel (in reality aluminum) bionic hand equipped with drills, saws, lock pick, laser beam and even a radio transmitter whose antenna doubled as a spear. Torque worked for UNIT, a counter-intelligence agency located behind "The Toy Boutique." Its chief operatives were Robert Conrad as Thomas Remington Sloane, III; and Ji-Tu Cumbuku, as his partner Torque. EFFIE, the organization's main computer (short for the E.F.I. Model 3000), supplied information to its agents via a sexy female voice (Michele Carey). The agents of UNIT fought the criminals of KARTEL, a sinister organization.
