She also appeared in two separate episodes of ''[[Mission Impossible]]'', again playing different characters. In 1969, in season 4, episode 91 ''Amnesiac'', she played Monique, an [[Impossible Missions Force]] operative. That was the season when the show had no permanent female operative because [[Barbara Bain]], who played [[Cinnamon Carter]] in seasons 1-3, had resigned and [[Lesley Ann Warren]], who played Dana Lambert in season 5, had not yet signed on. Then in 1970 in season 5, she played Anna Kerkoska, a premier's daughter who needed rescuing, in episode no. 112, ''Decoy''. Anna fell in love with [[Jim Phelps]], who did indeed rescue her by driving her across the border in a specially outfitted, low to the ground, automobile that could drive under the border gate. |
