The episode begins when an East German gentleman named Stefan Riker arrives looking for a woman. The woman that Riker is looking for is now named Lisa Bannister who has married divorced Edward Bannister. Edward is crippled and has to walk using two walking canes. The married couple lives near LA with Edward's daughter Doris.
We learn that Lisa Bannister is the daughter of an East German Communist Party official and is in the United States with a forged passport and could be sent back to East Germany, a place she does not wish to return.
For some reason the step daughter, Doris, starts a relationship with the much older Stefan Riker in what appears to be a scheme to help Lisa's problem. The next thing we know is that Doris appears in Perry's office claiming amnesia. And when they find Stefan Riker dead all the evidence points to the amnesia victim, Doris Bannister.
Perry will defend Doris in court on the charge of murder but it will not be the easiest task. Perry's client hides valuable information and even yells out, in open court, that Perry is lying about information that was given. But Perry, with help from the prosecution's exhibit, will show that the person responsible for the murder is someone else in the cast.
The show just did not have the usual flare of the first season episodes. The circumstance surrounding the plot was somewhat odd which lead to the writer's having to provide a lot of information to get the episode complete in the hour format. Even with the interesting ending of the show, it just seemed too long in building up any suspense for the viewer.
