    "The Rogues" was a cool series.  It was EXACTLY an early version of TVs "Mission: Impossible", at least in premise.  A team of people, who happened to be relatives to each other, traveled the world to fight injustices using incredible means and schemes.  In this episode, the Fleming family busted up a woman slavery ring headed by Arabs.

    Quinn played Donagh (pronounced "Donna") Cunningham.  The end credits say her character name is Donagh O'Patrick, but this is false.  There's a funny story about that.  Quinn was given the script, saw the name O'Patrick, and flipped.  She was born in Scotland and frequented all of the UK, and was positive that there was no such name as O'Patrick.  So she wanted it changed.  In the show, the character was called Donagh Cunningham, but in the end credits, it was still left as O'Patrick!  This was the only annoyance for Quinn concerning this show.  She absolutely LOVED filming this episode, and why not?  It was a well-done story with a great cast, most of them Hollywood screen legends!  This series starred Charles Boyer, whom Quinn worked with most closely of anyone in the cast, David Niven, Gig Young, and a host of others.  Even Alvy Moore, later of "Green Acres" fame as Hank Kimball, had a bit part in this episode playing George.

    In this episode, Charles Boyer and Quinn O'Hara ARE the major characters.  David Niven is given third importance, and Gig Young fourth.  Quinn is most capable of handling leading lady parts.  She plays an Irish girl who was kidnapped by the Arabs, ran away, and helped the Flemings bust up the slavery ring.  Boyer and Quinn have a lot of great one-on-one moments.  Plus, you get to see Quinn do a really excellent Irish accent.
