Maxwell Smart, Agent 86 for CONTROL, is back in action in season 3 of the classic television spy comedy Get Smart. In episode 6, titled "Supersonic Boom," Max is tasked with stopping a villainous plot to disrupt a crucial scientific conference being held at a luxury hotel.
The episode begins with Max and his partner Agent 99 investigating a mysterious explosion at a nearby factory. They soon discover that the explosion was caused by a sonic device developed by the evil organization KAOS to disrupt the hotel where the conference is being held. The device emits a high-frequency sound that causes glass to shatter and panic to ensue.
Max and 99 are joined in their mission by Agent 8, a bumbling agent who is prone to accidentally activating his gadgets at the wrong time. Together, the trio attempts to thwart KAOS's plan and keep the conference attendees safe.

Max also has to contend with a persistent room service waiter who seems determined to foil his plans.
Meanwhile, Agent 8 attempts to capture KAOS agent Siegfried, who has been spotted in the area. But his efforts are complicated by his own incompetence and Siegfried's clever disguises.
As the conference gets underway, KAOS makes their move, using the sonic boom device to cause chaos and destruction. Max and his team scramble to locate the device and shut it down before it's too late. Along the way, they encounter dangerous traps and cunning KAOS agents, testing their skills and resourcefulness.
With humor and wit, "Supersonic Boom" showcases the absurdity of spy tropes while still delivering an engaging and entertaining storyline. The classic formula of Max's gadgets and Agent 99's quick thinking is on full display, along with the show's trademark absurdity and tongue-in-cheek humor.
