The biggest reason to possibly watch this routine episode of "Barnaby Jones" is to get a brief look at Lisa Loring (Wednesday from "The Addams Family" television show). Otherwise, it's pretty typical of a late episode of this series.
When the episode begins, two guys are getting violent with a young woman in their hotel room. The manager, Brad (Dabney Coleman), interrupts them and tells them to keep it down...but doesn't call the police. Why? See the show.
What follows is a show about prostitution, though they keep referring to it as 'White Slavery'...meaning they are kidnapping white women and turning them into prostitutes against their will. To investigate, betty takes a job at the hotel...and you can pretty much guess what's next.
It's another 'Betty in peril' episodes...which is a strike against it and an indication that Buddy Edsen will barely be in the show. 'Nuff said.
