Spoilers ahead. Coverage follows the scope labeled below.

Plot summary

A woman ( Stefanie Powers ) hires Rockford to look into a supposed suicide, but she’s really a P.I. with no connection to the dead person, trying to misdirect the police away from her case. It’s a relatively innocent ruse, except it gets them in trouble with Lieutenant Diehl ( Tom Atkins ), and Rockford’s investigation reveals the death was actually murder. With Sherry Jackson, Bruce Kirby, George Wyner, Lawrence Cook and Wayne Grace.
