  • The Fourth Protocol (1987) [Valeri Petrofsky a.k.a. James Edward Ross]: Shot repeatedly by an SAS agent while Pierce is struggling with Michael Caine; his body is shown again afterwards as Michael checks on him while arguing with Sean Chapman (since they were supposed bring Brosnan in alive).

It's memory's deactivated when Homer (voice of Dan Castellaneta) removes the memory banks (a play on HAL 9000's deactivation in 2001: A Space Odyssey). It's memory's later activated again to look after Patty and Selma (both voiced by Julie Kavner). (note: Pierce also provides the voice of himself at the very end of the episode).
