Kate Jackson literally phones in her part for this show (the explanation is that Amanda King is laid up with a bad cold, sitting on her living room couch and watching the tennis tournament on television). Thus Francine, who's had the hots for Lee, gets to work with him for most of the hour -- although one of Amanda's phone calls provides a crucial clue for Lee.
