Baretta

- Season 4

(1977)

Baretta is in a blue funk because of a string of failed relationships with women; in fact, the opening finds him nursing a massive hangover and crawling to the phone after going on a bender after another breakup. So who does he get as a new partner? A real bitch --literally. Kelly, a female dog, is brought in to work with Baretta as both sniff out (him figuratively, her literally) a dangerous psychedelic mushroom.

Two thugs knock over a manufacturing plant and make off with a $200,000 payroll. They know the money is hot and make arrangements with a man named Trudgeon to launder it, passing it through channels and returning $50,000 in clean cash to them. Meanwhile, back at Baretta's apartment, he and Billy are busy making stew when their pimp buddy Rooster turns up -- in a business suit? The reason comes very quickly with a trilled "Oh Quen-tinnn! Where are youuuuu?" Rooster is posing as a legitimate businessman to impress his cousin and her friend, both of whom have come to Los...
