Synopsis by Hal Erickson

In Women From Headquarters, female rookie cop Joyce (Virginia Huston decides to take on a narcotics ring single-handed. Amazingly, she doesn't seem to need much help from her male colleagues. She does, however, find time for an intramural romance with officer Gates (Robert Rockwell). She also works overtime to reform a good-girl-gone-bad (Barbara Fuller). Featured in the cast are real-life policewoman Frances Charles, stalwart supporting actor Jack Kruschen, and, at the bottom of the cast list, Leonard Penn, the father of 1990s film faves Sean and Christopher Penn. Made with the full cooperation of the Los Angeles Police Department, Woman From Headquarters paints a fairly realistic picture of crime-fighting in the Big City.
