I really liked this fourth season Valentine's Day episode. For one thing, it was nice to get away from the trite images of the fake holiday. Yes, they opened with a silly montage of V'day images, but that quickly acquiesced to a nice episode. Jonathan tries to buy the perfume company that he's commissioned to create a "Jennifer" signature scent. BLOOPER ALERT --> The "Jennifer" bottle clearly has her name written in gold paint pen. Then we have the great Diana Muldaur from Star Trek and Next Gen playing a nice, meaty guest role with kissing and everything! RJ turns out a good, natural performance that has become a regular occurrence. Freeway gets more screen time and another visit to the vet, Dr. Barrett. Special guest dog, the Doberman, Huey. Now, the stunt work in this was some of the worst as far as believability. No one had good wigs. Yikes! Overall, a nicely popcorn episode with good acting, a fun story, and dogs.

Greed and an ongoing affair lead a woman (Diana Muldar) to murder her wealthy husband using "perfume". It has an effect on dogs, turning them into a "cujo" - that's how the husband dies, mauled by his Alsatian. The Harts stumble upon this case when Freeway attacks Jonathan, biting into his jacket sleeve. Previously Jonathan had accidentally splashed a perfume in the lab. From there, they let their nose lead the way and soon they find themselves up to their noses in danger. This is a solid episode, well-paced and has a grand idea.
