It Takes a Thief

Alexander Mundy

Noah Bain

"The last line of dialogue in the series' last episode is spoken directly to the camera. Wally Powers (facing & continuing to talk to the other actors, not the camera): "You know that and I know it, and you can be very sure the government knows it." (turning his face to the camera) "So what are you trying to do, scare everybody?"

In the first season, Alexander Mundy was a cat burglar hired by American spy agency: The SIA. In the second season, he became a freelance operative.

Several episodes in season 1 use stock footage of the undercarriage of an aircraft landing. This aircraft has 4 sets of landing gear. No commercial aircraft uses this configuration. The only aircraft to use this configuration is the USAF B-52 bomber.

Noah Bain: Oh, uh, look, Al, I'm not asking you to spy. I'm just asking you to steal.

Alistair Mundy: [part of opening title narration] I've heard of stealing *from* the government, but *for* the government?
