It transpires that Brisco's (Bruce Campbell) and sometimes lover Dixie (Kelly Rutherford) carries a wax pressing of a conversation between a presidential hopeful and super-criminal Bly - and that's enough for the politician in question to send hitman Winston Smiles (David Warner) after him. Now Brisco is tasked with guarding her life, and so is his main competition Lord Bowler (Julius Carry), if by a different agency. They all soon run into Smiles and make narrow escape after narrow escape, and manage to stay just out of his reach until they reach the monastery where Dixie has hidden the wax cylinder, a hiding place only few know about. The monastery is attacked by Smiles and his gang, but again, Brisco, Dixie and Bowler manage to make a narrow escape, and finally deliver Dixie and the cylinder safely into the hands of Brisco's superior Socrates Poole (Christian Clemenson) - where it's found out that Poole's new secretary Rita (Andrea Parker), whom he has hopelessly fallen for, is actually an agent of Smiles', and she has already let Smiles into the building to blow up the place. It all ends happily in the end, even if the place still gets blown up ...

It's entertaining enough, and David Warner sure makes a great villain, but at the same time it's not one of the more special episodes of the series, as despite all the chases and excitement, it feels the thing is mostly going through the motions without any real spark to it. And the subplot about Brisco and Dixie thinking about taking the next step and settle down really doesn't do much to add excitement. It's still fun mind you, just not one of the better episodes.
