Ep 7. Wheels

In Mission: Impossible season 1 episode 7, titled "Wheels," the IMF team is tasked with stopping a drug lord who is using a shipping company as a front for his illicit operations. The team must go undercover at the company and infiltrate the drug lord's inner circle in order to gather evidence and bring him down.

The episode starts with a briefing where we learn that the target is a man named Rolf Heiden (played by John van Dreelen), a notorious drug smuggler who has managed to stay one step ahead of the law for years. Heiden uses a legitimate shipping company called Atlantic Overseas to transport his drugs without arousing suspicion. The IMF team's job is to expose Heiden's criminal activities and bring him to justice.

Jim Phelps (Peter Graves), the leader of the IMF team, comes up with a plan to infiltrate Atlantic Overseas. He recruits two new members to the team: Rollin Hand (Martin Landau) and Barney Collier (Greg Morris). Rollin will pose as a computer expert who has been hired to install a new computer system at Atlantic Overseas, while Barney will pose as a truck driver who is delivering a shipment of chemicals to the company. The rest of the team will provide support from outside.

Once the team is in place, they begin to gather information about Heiden and his associates. Rollin discovers that Heiden has a secret room in his office where he keeps all his drugs and cash. Barney manages to plant a bug in Heiden's car, allowing the team to listen in on his conversations.

Over the course of several days, the team manages to gain Heiden's trust and get invited to his inner circle. They attend a party at his mansion where they are introduced to his henchmen and other criminal associates. Rollin manages to hack into Heiden's computer system and copy all the incriminating data. The team also learns that Heiden is planning to make a big drug deal with a group of mobsters from Chicago.

With the clock ticking, the team must now figure out how to get the evidence out of Heiden's office and escape before they are caught. They come up with a daring plan: Rollin will create a distraction by setting off the fire alarm, while Barney will drive a truck through the front gate of the building. Jim and the rest of the team will rush in and grab the evidence, while the others create chaos.

The plan goes off without a hitch, and the team manages to escape with the incriminating evidence. They then use the information to set a trap for Heiden and his associates. In a tense confrontation, the team manages to capture Heiden and all his henchmen without anyone getting hurt.

In the final scene, the team meets with their contact in law enforcement and hands over the evidence. They know that Heiden and his associates will be put away for a long time. Jim smiles and says, "Congratulations, team. Another mission accomplished."

Overall, "Wheels" is a thrilling episode of Mission: Impossible that showcases the team's ingenuity and resourcefulness. The stakes are high, and the tension is palpable as the team races against time to gather evidence and take down a dangerous criminal. Fans of the show will not be disappointed by this exciting and action-packed episode.
