Typically solid entry. It's a great hook. A guy's perched on a skyscraper ledge, apparently looking to leap, while a big urban crowd gathers below. Then, out of nowhere, another guy with a scoped rifle appears on a rooftop and ka-boom. So what's going on since you can't kill a guy twice.
Apparently producers liked actor Lanphier well enough that he was promoted from one-time killer to permanent greeter Leslie at Mother's. For a moment his role here takes some getting used to. And catch Jeannie Carson as the dolled up Pearl, her voice fairly shouting 'Ain't I cheap'. Too bad Hope Emerson died early into the series. She was such a formidable Mother, lending real color to the show and unlike anyone else on series TV. But, why oh why, is Pete always abandoning luscious Edie at romantic moments to go out on a case. He's really got his priorities backward. Here, my only gripe is Pete's swift fistic dispatch of muscular Sam. It's like the production was running out of film. Otherwise, it's a solid series entry.
