Brilliant, Excellent, Sensitive

The Mod Squad, is one of my top five favorites, with Five O; Room 222; Streets; and others.

This episode, is one of the best in the whole era, of Golden Age of Television.

Meticulously well - written, crafted to show sensitivity and love.

Role of a lifetime, for Kaplan, and just to hear that wonderful voice of Choo Choo, from Top Cat, is enough to draw anyone to this episode.

Anyway, the entire episode is based on Jewish beliefs, extremely rare for 1969, and a daring move.

For about ten minutes, I thought it was either a PSA to laud Judaism, or to trumpet the concerns regarding slum lords, but it developed into a moving, gripping, saga of love, mercy, and forgiveness.

Must see
