Steele Away with Me: Part 1
23 April 2018
It is season 2 and Remington Steele has been retooled somewhat. The opening titles and theme music has been rejigged. Out goes Murphy Michaels who has started his own investigation firm and Bernice Foxe has ran off with a saxophone player.

In comes Mildred Krebs (Doris Roberts) a tax investigator who shows up at the office looking for Remington Steele's tax return and sticks around. It almost mirrors an episode from the previous season when an older character is almost enchanted by the dangers that Remington and Laura get into.

This two parter is about stolen diamonds, with multinational destinations and a riff on the James Bond theme. Laura encounters a dying man on her doorstep and heads to Acapulco to investigate. Her life is immediately put in danger and there is a shady man hanging about pretending to be attending an insurance convention. Steele later joins her while the dogged Mildred Krebs follows determined to uncover his tax status.
