Episode synopsis
Story of one of the GI turncoats who pauses in Hong Kong on his way back from China. His arrival is complicated by two pieces of excess baggage he carries with him—a beautiful Communist Chinese newspaper woman and a vest that conceals a shipment of narcotics. He has some wild idea of buying safety by turning the narcotics over to the police, reckoning without the justifiable wrath of the dealers expecting the dope.
