Background

Torgovitch is a sailor on the Soviet oceanographic research vessel Maxim Gorgi.


During the events of Airwolf: Season 2 Episode 12 Condemned played by George C. Grant

Lt. Cmdr. Leoni Zirukov and his troops arrive on the beach where the secret lab is located. Torgovitch and his patrol hear a commotion and after Stringfellow Hawke and Caitlin O'Shannessy escape, Sailor 1 tells Torgovitch two Americans are on the island. Torgovitch reports to Zirukov that there are two Americans on the island. Lt. Elena Loupani tells Torgovitch to send every available man to find Hawke and Caitlin, but Zirukov cancels her order and says their priority is to find the antidote. Hawke and Caitlin are captured by the Soviets. They agree to work together, which Loupani doesn't like. Sailor 2 tells the others he has triangulated the source, shortly after Hawke and Caitlin triangulate it. Hawke sees Zirukov and his group trying to beat them to the lab and fires a missile at a bridge, causing Zirukov and his group to have to walk to the lab. The lab door is blown open and the two groups enter the lab. Inside the lab are a series of containers with dead rabbits named after the Marx brothers and a different antidote formula written down. Hawke finds "Harpo" who was given Formula B, still alive and he also finds the source of the signal. The antidote is located and Zirukov takes the first injection. Torgovitch quietly speaks with Loupani, who agrees with what he says. Torgovitch and three other troops locate Airwolf. Hawke, Caitlin and Loupani walk to Airwolf and Loupani orders Torgovitch and his men to throw down their weapons. Torgovitch starts to become paranoid and Loupani shoots him in the leg. Torgovitch and the others eventually make their way back to their submarine.
