Honey and Sam are hired by an art museum to test their security. To prove how inefficient it is, they steal a rare Chinese jade owl. Honey and Sam agree to beef-up the museum's system, only to have the same jade owl immediately stolen - and this time, it's been stolen for real.
The Owl and the Eye is a solid, but not spectacular episode of Honey West. The problem with the episode is its predictability. The thief's identity is telegraphed the minute the cast is introduced. If you can't spot the thief, you haven't seen enough television from the 60s and 70s. The highlights of this episode have to be Honey's date and the final "fight" scene on the boat. The latter is particularly enjoyable with Honey cleverly fighting off a pack of guard dogs.
In the episode's edition of Name That Character Actor, we have Lloyd Bochner. Again, the name may not be familiar, but with 202 acting credits listed on IMDb (and most in television), you'd know him if you saw him.
