Sally Kellerman overacts. Whit Bissell is largely wasted. The crime is a bit too complicated to believe. Sally plays an old girlfriend of Joe's who gets into trouble when she might have killed his current boyfriend. Joe investigates and also gets re-involved with her. Not a very smart move considering she might be a murderer. She drinks too much and tries to commit suicide but Joe is there to save her.
He figures out what happens and goes to the bad guy's house to confront him. (Why not the police? Joe has friends there.) Sure enough, Joe gets taken in a fight and the bad guys try to make his upcoming death look like he was hit while changing a tire. Joe recovers consciousness at a very convenient moment and takes out the two bad people. Why they didn't just shoot Joe and bury him is beyond me. The end is Sally admitting she can't catch Joe but will keep trying. They kiss and we never see Sally again. I guess she didn't try that hard but then nobody else in this episode did either.
