This episode begins at the Danceland Ballroom where a regular drunk named Albert Sanders is being thrown out. This was a small scene but will prove to be significant as the story progresses.
In a rather complex set of facts we find out that Mr Fredrick Archer, Ms Martha Rayburn along with a rough named Joe Gibbs- are running this International Model Agency that sends young women across the globe for work. Unbeknownst to the young girls, they are actually being used to smuggle drugs into the country through a secret compartment in a purse that is given to them by the agency.
It just so happens that one of the girls named Kim Lane has found out about the little scheme and decides to blackmail the agency. Knowing that she could put them out of business, the three people running the agency decided to rid themselves of Ms Lane. So they set up a patsy in the name of Albert Sander, our local drunk, to take the fall.
Perry gets involved as a court-appointed-attorney for the Sanders when his client gets charged with robbery and then murder. It is not long before Perry knows something in amiss in the dealings with the ballroom and the agency. He will have to drag out the courtroom proceedings and introduce some unsavory evidence before the scheme comes falling down.
Unlike most of the shows from the first season, this is one that the viewer really has to pay attention during the witness stand testimony. There was a lot of great stuff in this episode and then there was some slow moments where even the Judge seemed bored. There are some good moments as when Della goes in for a meeting at the modeling agency and gets looked over- plus we also get to see someone pull a gun on Perry and force him against the wall. It was an episode with two faces, at times full of action and at other times slow as molasses. Overall still a nice watch.
