This week's Sainturdy Night Special is brought to you in part by the law firm of Dewey, Cheatham, & Howe, where you're sure to get a fair shake whether you're innocent or not. For all services unlawful or illegal, they're the guys to turn to!
Roger Moore is the angelic Simon Templar, and Simon Templar is "The Saint."
So what the Hell is a Sibao you ask? Well, besides being the name of this Episode 21 from the third season of "The Saint," it's also the name of a beautiful woman!
For some reason. stories about voodoo in the country of Haiti seem to be a lot more believable that say, something about some white guy swinging through the trees in Africa.
"Sibao" opens in a bar in Haiti, with voodoo drums, and this guy doing his voodoo dance.
He wears a simple skull face masque, but it's pretty effective in the Creepy Department!
Then, POOF! He disappears into thin air right in front of everybody. Pretty cool trick, but is it really a trick, or is it voodoo?
The patrons of the club are pretty impressed.
Simon Templar, who just happens to be sitting at one of the tables is pretty impressed himself.
This is the lovely Sibao as played by Jeanne Roland. Jeanne might only have 15 credits to her name, but most of them are good ones, besides "The Saint," she appeared in four other crucial 60's TV shows where they needed an exotic looking woman that included "Secret Agent," "The Avengers," "The Baron," and "Man With A Camera." On the big screen, she was in "The Curse Of The Mummy's Tomb," "Casino Royale," and "You Only Live Twice."
Simon Templar's pals are Nicholas (The Night My Number Came Up) Stuart as Atherton Lee, and Jerry (Lolita) Stovin as Tony Kreiger.
Atherton is cool, but Tony is a real dick. It's hard to imagine that Simon Templar would have much to do with a guy like him.
Tony even turns into a bigger jerk the more he drinks, and he drinks a lot!
Tony is being such an ass, he's really starting to attract the attention of some of the local guys! He was even annoying me!
John Carson is some weird cat named Theron Netlord. Theron thinks he's a big shot, and he's forcing Sibao into marrying him. With a name like Netlord, I can see how a person could get pretty full of himself, especially these days!
John had a long and varied career, that ranged from "Blood Beast From Outer Space" to "Poirot." When I said varied, I meant it.
Jerkface Tony pushed too many people's buttons, including Netlord's, and when leaving the bar, his brakes fail miserably. Not only does he die when he hits this tree, but on the way here, he uncontrollably hit Sibao and her brother. Sibao gets a big cut on her leg, and is okay, but her brother dies, and now there's going to be a need to have a big voodoo ceremony!
Turns out Tony wasn't really Tony, but instead was this guy named David Grant, and he wasn't really drunk, but was in Haiti doing some investigating. It was all a show.
Netlord decides to serve up some free lunch at the wedding with himself on the menu.
