Stockwell is contacted by Ivan Trigorin, aka "Brown Fox", his former partner at the CIA for nearly ten years. The Russian is looking for a top secret stealth bomber the Americans have stolen from the Soviets ans starts torturing the General for information. Carla informs the A-Team they have 36 hours to find Stockwell, or the entire operation will cease to be and they will become fugitives once more. Using Frankie's cousin's mobile home as a base, all signs lead to a psychiatric hospital in L.A. So, Murdock has to act insane once more, this time impersonating Frank Sinatra. - IMDB

Murdock: It's so nice to be back in L.A. The freeways, the shallow people, the superficial relationships. How can you live anywhere else?
Frankie: Don't forget the smog.
Murdock: Ah, the smog. The sunset when the light hits the inversion layer just right it turns a beautiful shade of orange.
Hannibal: Brings a tear to the eye.
Murdock: My sentiments exactly, Colonel.
Murdock: The ole scam man back in action, huh?
Face: The scam man is never out of action.
Frankie: We're gonna be fugitives. We're gonna be out there all alone.
B.A.: Oh man, you're making me nostalgic.
Murdock: Captain Murdock reporting, sir. The Chinese Consulate is in a state of military preparedness. Troops are billeted on the second floor, armed and lethal. I myself was struck repeatedly with mooshu pork and egg fuyung.

In the Chinese consulate, the dial on the safe changes. When we first see it, it is black with white numbers on the face of the dial (a wall safe). The close-up shot shows it as one with a silver dial with black numbers. Also, the numbers are on the edge of the dial, indicating that it's probably a floor safe. - IMDB
When Stockwell shoots the car, he is not wearing his glasses, but when they show him immediately after the car flips, he is wearing them.
