Inspector Sparrow: "Getting information out of these devils is like pulling teeth." Max: "I wish Harold Feinberg were here." Sparrow: "Who's Harold Feinberg?" Max: "My dentist."
Note: This is the first episode of a two-part story. However, as Season 5 is the only one with onscreen episode titles, that title is used here, eschewing the practice of numbered parts adopted for previous seasons.
Uncharacteristically for the series, when Chief Inspector Sparrow expressed his disbelief on meeting Max, the chief inspector says to Max not to tell him that he is Maxwell Smart before Max confirms that he was. The chief inspector however did not say to Max that he (Sparrow) asked not to tell him (Sparrow) that!
Reality Check[]
The title refers to the 1953 film House of Wax starring earlier Get Smart guest star Vincent Price. This is Max and 99's second encounter with a wax museum, the first being in Episode #80: "The Wax Max".
