Should be title "Love boat Angels Accomplices to Theft"

Warning: Spoilers
I started out liking Charlie's Angels but this episode is morally wrong. Apparently if the angels think that when someone steals something from you for a noble cause and you hire them to recover it, they help the thief steal it if it's for a moral cause. Chris falls in love with the head thief and even though he tries to kill her she stays with him at the end of the episode because he couldn't kill her because he loves her. If it was a normal person he would have killed him or her but that's Okay with Chris. Worthless episode and condones stealing money from people and also staying with a batterer. I'm assuming trying to kill you is battering.

What's really bad is that Charles Townsend agency is hire to find stolen art. When the thief is caught, he agrees to return stolen art to owner for 1 million dollars. The owner of the art switches suitcases giving the thief and empty suitcase so the thief gets nothing and Chris secretly switches it back for her boyfriend. Their is nothing crooked or bad about the owner. The angels then wave to Chris and her new beau (Bert Convy) riding off into the sunset and commend her for her actions. The angels themselves have pulled more cons and worse to get money back in some cases having people beaten up. I Would write a part 3 to this episode entitled Charlie Townsend gets sued and three angels get put in jail for fraud. Bear in mind that the Angels were hired to get the art back. The thief deserved nothing but jail but was never put in jail.
