Jessica travels to Idaho, to offer comfort and support to her friend Linda, who's husband Jim recently died at the wheel of his car. His death was deemed accidental, but the obstinate Sheriff Orville Yates refuses the family access to the vehicle. Jim's father Harry breaks in to the pound where Jim's car is and attempts to check it over, he's set upon by Deputy Wayne Beeler. A body is later found.
It's very much a middle of the road episode, it's far from bad, but there's nothing instantly memorable here. It's a solid plot, with solid performances, coupled with the usual strong production values. It's always apparent when different people were behind the scenes, as the show ranges from light hearted to serious, this is very much a serious episode, with no jokes or cheer.
I would praise Ed Lauter for making Yates such an unlikable character, I'd say his performance stands out from the rest.
Pretty good, 7/10
