This episode was not rerun
Inspector Lewis Erskine uses a young boy to track an embezzler. Some humor is involved here. Jack Klugman looks an awful lot like Groucho Marx did in 1965! Reference is made to Korea, where Mr. Erskine had served. The exteriors do not quite look like El Paso, Texas.
- Jack Klugman and Canadian-born Brett Somers were married from 1953 to 1974. The Internet Movie Database listed them as separated, not as divorced. They also played played husband and (ex-) wife in The Odd Couple. Here, they play brother and sister. Mr. Klugman plays a widower with an adopted son.
- Brett Somers was also a popular panelist in the CBS game show Match Game ’73 (1973-82).
