synopsis
Once again, Friday (Jack Webb) and Smith (Ben Alexander) leave the confines of their downtown police station to venture into the wilds of Hollywood. 16-year-old movie starlet Joan Hamblin (Norma Eberhardt) has reported that a forged check has somehow shown up in her bank account. Can it be that someone within the girl's "trusted" entourage is taking advantage of her celebrity? (Coincidentally, some of the best lines in this episode go to Ben Alexander--who had once been a child movie star himself).
