The box in question is the cube that Evie and her dad use to communicate, although Evie and Donna react as if Troy himself has been kidnapped. The mystery is pretty predictable of course, but I would've gone with a B-, due to the exploration of space powers, if not for some unfunny slapstick. (This is the 400th C+.)
Fred Willard plays Milton Wyler of the Marlowe Vice, that is, he's a Miami-Vice-influenced cop for the town of Marlowe where this is set. John Roarke, who was in the "diet clinic" episode, makes his last appearance in the series as Phil the handyman. (And it's sort of a D.C. Follies reunion, since he did voices on there, as did Alaskey.) April Kelly, who was one of the better Mork & Mindy writers (she did twenty-three episodes) co-wrote this with someone who didn't work on any of my other shows.
