Yeah, that scream was hilarious.

I got a kick out of that fight for another reason though. The actor playing Collins, George Lewis, had previously played a henchman in the 1943 Batman series and would later go on to play Zorro's father in the 1957 series from Disney. He'd also end up fighting Zorro in two episodes of the series.

So, Lewis has fought Batman, Zorro, and the Lone Ranger. He's gone toe to toe with all of the important masked men of the era.

I don't know the name of the episode, it was on TV within the last week or so, but it's the one where the Lone Ranger dresses up as this old man who sweeps the floor of a tavern. Later when he's discovered the owner, she pulls a gone on him while he's dressed up as the Lone Ranger. He says to her that they already know each other, and then totally out of character for the Lone Ranger, he acts like the old man and shaking his hand in the air talking to her. It was such a surprise and funny.
