Richard A. Billings: Interstate Transportation of Stolen Property
Original air date: 7 March 1971
Inspector Lew Erskine apprehends the lone survivor of an amored car robbery and recovers $500,000 in stolen money.
- Inspector Erskine nabs Mr. Billings in Buffalo, NY. However, judging from the Epilog, the cityscape looks just like Los Angeles. Sheesh!
- Warren Oates (1928-1982) was a notable character actor who remained in demand up to the time he died. This was his one and only appearance on the series.
- Joyce Van Patten is the sister of actor Dick Van Patten, and the former wife of Martin Balsam. Ms. Van Patten is also the mother of Talia Balsam (and mother-in-law to actor John Slattery). She remains a busy actress even in 2019!
