One of my favorite episodes because the bad guy listened to his wife and returned the money he stole. He even stood up to the other bad guy, which took a lot of courage since the other man had a gun and was threatening the woman.

What a great show, back when common sense ruled our society even in Hollywood. I notice they use about 3 cars for the non-police car roles and just rotate them around episode to episode. These days they would destroy 3 cars per episode in stunts.

Car companies LOVED this show and it became a 'go to' for new car placement by season 3. After 1958 the villains, the regulars, EVERYONE all drove BRAND NEW CARS! The '58 Buick patrol car was an idea that didn't fly with the police agencies- Forty pounds of Chrome Xylophone side trim on each side was a bit too much. Lots of Melrose Bl. and Ventura Bl. (Los Angeles) locations. Cool show even with its crudeness and budget limitations. William Boyette went on to portray the supervisor in ADAM 12 a few years later.

For the wife of a jailbird ex-con, she sure wears a LOT of gold on her ears! Must weigh a ton.

The gas station that appears in a couple of scenes near the beginning of the show was featured in the episode that by coincidence I saw right before this one entitled “Suspected Cop”. The convict’s attractive wife reminds me of a B movie version of beautiful Debbie Reynolds. She was a damn fool to get mixed up with someone of the likes of Ray Summers. If it wasn’t for her however, those two crooks would have gotten all of the loot that he has stashed but probably got busted later if in fact it was traceable as she had claimed; but how would she know as it was just payroll money, and why bother take it in the first place if it actually was. There are a lot of logistical mistakes in this episode that are too numerous to mention here. But notice how Dan Matthews after leaving his office immediately picks up Summers driving his snazzy “Big M” Mercury Montclair hardtop and then starts tailing him even though it appears from what he explains to the officer at 12:45 using the HWP wall map that he is around two hundred miles from where Summers lives. I would imagine that the cabin area where the filming took place was somewhere up in the Griffith Park area, but I could be wrong.10-4

Somehow, this episode is on twice, as 101 and 102. I like the ones where a guy turns a new leaf. This man’s wife was a true angel. I know of a couple like that. Man’s wife waited for him during his prison term. He now runs a ministry for others.

It's a rainy day; everyone is wearing a trench coat and windshield wipers are going. No reason to roll up the windows on the cars, though; it's fun to ride around on wet cloth seats. Then, when Dan decides to tail Summers, he pulls out of the side road right behind the crook's Pontiac. For some reason, that Pontiac is waiting for him to catch up, parked in the middle of the right lane. Finally, Dan does what no other police officer ever does, he fires a warning shot in the air with his trusty .38. Good thing there aren't a lot of houses about the area because that bullet's coming down somewhere.
