Synopsis by Hal Erickson
While visiting his Native American foster son Chester (Eddie Garcia) at an Arizona Indian reservation, Quincy (Jack Klugman) notices that the boy is showing symptoms of bubonic plague, a devastating illness that has already taken the life of his best friend. Quickly, Quincy alerts the local authorities in hopes of staving off a statewide epidemic. Unfortunately, those authorities are more concerned with an upcoming golf tournament at an expensive new country club called Paradise Palms--and they're willing to go to any lengths to avoid sacrificing the tourist trade to a medical emergency.
