This Kojak episode is the first of two pilots for a projected spinoff series starring Rosey Grier) as hard-nosed California bounty hunter Salathiel Harris. Arriving in New York, Harris begins his search for a bail-jumping racketeer, while home-grown police lieutenant Kojak (Telly Savalas) embarks upon the same quest. To flush out his quarry, Harris sets himself up as the target for a hired assassin--and goes to great lengths to prevent Kojak from "rescuing" him.
