> The only USSS agent who specifically used _ju jitsu_ (mentioned by name) in the original series was Bosley Cranston (Pat Paulsen) in “The Night of the Camera.”

Looking at the “Quotes” section on IMDb, it says “Karate,” but I’d swear I heard “_ju jitsu_” instead. If anyone has this episode on DVD or tape, please either confirm or deny. ☹
