With a strip-queen figure even a uniform cannot hide, Colt serves as Captain's secretary, reporter, bookkeeper – and with surprising efficiency. She undoubtedly dreams of serving Robert April with equal efficiency in personal departments."

The note about Colt's title not being Yeo-woman was included in the second revised final draft script of "The Cage", which goes on to say of the character, "About twenty, she's pert and shapely, but carries herself with trained precision."
