The Rockford Files: A Portrait of Elizabeth (1976)
Season 2, Episode 16
8/10
A Fool for a client
2 October 2012
This episode of The Rockford Files gives Jim Rockford's personal attorney Gretchen Corbett a chance to shine as her personal attachment to Rockford is revealed.

One of the constants of the Rockford Files until she left the show and passed James Garner on as a client to Bo Hopkins in the last season was attorney Beth Davenport constantly coming to the aid of Rockford and I mean 24/7. Garner needs an attorney like that and for some reason he just takes Corbett for granted. In just about every episode, a lot of the time because he shows the cops up, other than Joe Santos, they really have it for him. Corbett is that rarity a lawyer who makes house calls. Taking her for granted like that makes Garner a fool.

So when of his played by John Saxon starts putting some moves on Corbett, the green eyed monster takes over. And then he's got a real jackpot when a pair of stiffs show up in the famous Rockford Trailer.

This was a well done episode where some hidden feelings on behalf of Garner and Corbett finally get aired.

James Rockford you are a fool not to realize what you have.
