In an episode clearly inspired by the "Hurricane" Carter saga, ex-prizefighter Typhoon Thompson (Isaac Hayes) gets out of prison after serving several years for the murder of his manager. Now all Typhoon lives for is to get even with the person whom he claims is the real murderer--and to exact vengeance against Hunter (Fred Dryer), the police detective who sent him up. As dead bodies pile up all over LA, it looks as if Typhoon has embarked upon a killing spree...but Hunter begins to suspect that someone else is responsible for the carnage.
