- GoofsEven though the police received an anonymous $500 to bury the Jane Doe girl, the burial plot in front of the fountain would easily cost more. It is also unlikely that flowers would have been purchased or that either the clergy or the police would attend the interment.
- Quotes
Joe Mannix: Elizabeth Farrell?
Liz Farrell: You went to some trouble finding me.
Joe Mannix: Is it Miss Farrell?
Liz Farrell: Missus.
Joe Mannix: My name is Joe Mannix, Mrs. Farrell, and it was no trouble at all. A friend of mine at the DMV checked out your car license, and the auto rental agency gave me your address.
Liz Farrell: Come in, Mr. Mannix.
Joe Mannix: Thank you.
Liz Farrell: I suppose you want to know why I was at the cemetery?
Joe Mannix: If you don't mind telling me.
Liz Farrell: I read about the little girl in the paper.
Joe Mannix: And you donated $500?
Liz Farrell: Yes.
Joe Mannix: So that the little girl wouldn't be quite alone?
Liz Farrell: I had a daughter. She would've been the same age. Four years ago, her father was driving her to San Francisco. They were going to the circus.
Joe Mannix: Mm.
Liz Farrell: I was down with the flu. I couldn't be with them. Just outside of Merced, a trailer jumped the center divider and hit the car. They were both...
[pauses]
Liz Farrell: Mr. Mannix, what's your interest in all this?
Joe Mannix: About the same as yours, Mrs. Farrell. I felt the little girl... well, deserved someone. Thanks for seeing me.
Liz Farrell: Not at all.
This episode, if you think about it, makes little sense. If the lady had nothing to do with Mannix instead of later hiring him, he would have gone about his merry way. Not exactly logical. But...entertaining like any episode of "Mannix". And, if was entertaining to see Mannix dispatch the guy who took his car keys...that alone makes it worth seeing!
