When Bailey&Spencer fail in their mission to keep a mob lawyer turned informant from being killed, Efrem Zimbalist takes it upon himself to see the killers are brought to justice.

The only lead they have is the finger man Elisha Cook, Jr. who is a most suspicious individual.

It's Kookie, now a full fledged member of the firm who finds an old ham actor played by Jay Novello who spends most nights stewed to the gills at various Sunset Boulevard lounges. Edd Byrnes and Novello have a great scene at one of said bars. He's a key to Stu Bailey's plan.

Novello, Cook, and hit man Ted DeCorsia perform well. But Novello really gets to ham it up in a part that calls for it.

**SPOILERS** I know just what you're thinking'. Oh, yes I do. You're thinking' He gave it a 10??? See, I was right. Why?? you ask? Several reasons One: the washed up, drunken, has-been actor they got to play the part of the ghost of the cape clad victim that they used to terrify Elisha Cook; the washed up, has-been jockey turned enforcer for a cheap, low-rent hood that the victim had the bad luck to recognize. (pretty long sentence, huh?). He was great in the way he soddenly and courageously took on the role that eventually gave him a second chance. See it yourself; Jay Novello great bit player.

Next. Elisha Cook. That should be enough, right there. One of the top actors in his class (of all time). I don't know if there could be an actor who characterizes what it takes to be in this field without whom NONE of these dramas could exist. I mention him and I include the whole community of these superbly talented individuals who just don't get enough recognition. (R.I.P., Mr Cook).

I liked the way Jeff's shoot first and don't bother with questions later chills the main creep's karma, scaring Pony into telling where they were holding Connie; it was A GOOD ending. When I saw who all was going to be in this episode, Thanks to IMDb for the invaluable website; I made sure I could watch it all. This episode didn't disappoint.
