Synopsis by Hal Erickson
The O.J. Simpson case is the clear inspiration for this episode,which was evidently filmed so quickly that the producers didn't barely had time to write a "TV Guide" synopsis. The focus is on beloved ex-astronaut Danger Duke Robinson, who is implicated in the murder of his brother. When Danger Duke goes on the lam, Murphy (Candice Bergen) is assigned to cover the story--much to her dismay, in that Robinson was one of her personal heroes. (Note: though Danger Duke does not appear on-screen, viewers will instantly recognize his voice).
