He turns into a different colour black and white with a yellow light in front of the hood for a disguise and then KARR manipulates his finder to help him continue his crime spree by destroying Michael and Kitt with a new laser stolen from the Foundation.

Episode Review:

This episode isn't quite as exciting as the first season show Trust Doesn't Rust where KARR made his debut. Still, KARR is arguably Knight Rider's greatest villian, and it's good to see him on the prowl again. The final showdown has KITT and KARR turbo boosting towards each other and exploding on impact 50 feet in the air. It made for a great "coming next week" preview.

Episode Review:

KITT was "destroyed" 4 times during the series' regular run. Goliath, Knight of the Drones, Knight of the Juggernaut, and this episode. This is the only non-season-premiere episode where KITT is rebuilt, so it comes as a bit of a surprise. We can see KITT in various stages of his reconstruction including a cool pre-painted all white KITT. You know that everything will be back to the way things were by the time the episode ends, but it's fun watching KITT develop along the way.

It's a bit of a stretch to think Michael could pass as a rocket scientist, but Knight Rider is all about escapism anyway, right?
