The entire story can be summed up as follows: an American spy goes to Russia to get info on their newest intercontinental missile. He teams up with a defecting female government worker. They try to sabotage the missile, but they screw up the job and both get shot. Russia retaliates by launching a missile and nuking New York.

That'll teach us, eh?

Directed by Larry Mahon. Starring John MacKay, Monica Davis, Dan Kern, and Edward Czerniuk.

The last time I saw this was on MST3K, and the only thing I remember was Joel explaining about the Charlie McCarthy hearings in the 50s.

One day Charlie McCarthy looked at Howdy Doody's hair and saw red. Laughing I wish I could get the audio of that segment.
