Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Having previously played a homicidal kidnapper during The F.B.I.'s inaugural season, Wayne Rogers upholds his villainous tradition in this episode as a bigoted extortionist. Harboring a pathological hatred for all Latinos, Tyler Cray (Rogers) devises a nasty method of extorting $200,000 from a Mexican-American rancher (Ray Avila). Can this be the same Wayne Rogers who appeared as an upright federal agent in the 1975 TV movie Attack on Terror: The FBI vs. the Ku Klux Klan? Stephen Brooks makes his final series appearance as Special Agent Jim Rhodes in this, the last episode of The F. B.I.'s second season.
