Mission: Impossible

S03E16 The Glass Cage

Anton Reisner, a leader of the resistance in a repressive regime, finds himself locked away in the high-tech Trast Prison, where Major Zelinko is brutally interrogating him for the identities of his fellow leaders. The IMF devises a plan to rescue him. Reisner is trapped in a glass cell under constant surveillance. To infiltrate the prison, Barney and Willy willingly get themselves captured during an inspection led by Cinnamon, who oversees the prison system. She manages to divert Zelinko's attention, allowing the duo to escape, sabotage the surveillance system, and reach Reisner. However, they instruct him to act differently and remain in his cell, leading to their recapture. Zelinko notices inconsistencies between the door counter and the logbook, mistakenly suspecting Reisner is an imposter. As Zelinko and his aide Gulka conspire to keep the switch hidden, Cinnamon ensures that Zelinko's subordinate, Vasney, overhears their plans. This leads to Zelinko's arrest
