Sharron and Richard are inside Tremayne's office, they are testing each other's ESP by picking out the matching playing cards from a deck.
"A game of cards, but for Richard Barrett and Sharron Macready, even this becomes a test; a test of Extra Sensory Perception. Just another one of the super human qualities endowed to the Champions when they crashed in the snows of Tibet and encountered the fabulous people of a lost civilisation. Now as operators of the international agency of Nemesis, they are able to use these powers to their best advantage as the Champions of law and order and justice."

Sharron poses as an addict to help trace tainted drugs which are being sold in London. One addict, Jane Purcell, leads Sharron to a pusher, who in turn leads her to a dubious peanut vendor. Craig and Richard trace the peanut vendor to an Eastern embassy, where they are taken prisoner.

A good strong episode. An interesting plot which doesn't involve a world-wide "situation", this episode takes place entirely in London and around a subject that is still quite relevant today, drugs. This is one of the better examples of seeing how the three agents work closely together, and as a team.
Though the episode has no real moments of suspense or thrills, it is nevertheless a good solid story.
