According to Andrew Sandoval's The Monkees: The Day-by-Day Story of the 60s TV Pop Sensation, "The Spy Who Came in from the Cool" - the fifth episode of The Monkees series - was broadcast fifty years ago to-day (10 October 1966). It was written by Gerald Gardner and Dee Caruso, directed by Robert Rafelson, and featured the songs "The Kind of Girl I Could Love," "(I'm Not Your) Steppin' Stone," "All the King's Horses," and "Saturday's Child." Sandoval describes the plot as: "The Monkees are cast into the Cold War after Davy purchases a pair of 'red' maracas at a pawnshop."
