From CHiPs Online:
Ponch and Jon stop to take care of two hitch-hikers when they spot an out-of-control sail-racer rolling past them down the hill. They let the hitch-hikers go and take off after the sail-racer. After the commercial break, Jon catches up with the guy and gives him a ticket. Shortly after, Jon spots the hitch-hikers and informs them that he's taking them to the station.
Back at Central, Ponch and Jon find Sarge having his picture taken because he's "Sergeant of the Month" in the CHP magazine. As they leave, Jon checks in on the hitch-hikers. Outside, Ponch and Jon discuss the situation. As Ponch puts on his helmet, he comes up with the idea of making Getraer's head seem smaller by making Getraer's helmet a couple sizes larger.
Out on patrol, Ponch and Jon find a house that's going to be moved. A woman's father is still inside and refuses to come out. Ponch and Jon go in and bargain with the man. The woman agrees to her father's terms and everyone is (relatively) happy with the outcome...including the dog Leroy.
Meanwhile, on a nearby hill, a sports car swerves in front of a truck causing the truck to lose its brakes. Ponch and Jon come to the rescue as the truck speeds down the hill. Ponch clears the way while Jon radios ahead to Baricza. Baricza pulls his cruiser in front of the truck and uses his brakes to stop the truck.
That night, Ponch has a date with Mary Kate, the older sister of one of the hitch-hikers, and talks about the situation the girls are in.
The next morning, Getraer finds that Ponch has shrunken his head. It starts to rain and Ponch and Jon head in to lunch. As they eat, a large man moves a VW Beetle out of its parking spot and lifts Ponch and Jon's motors onto the sidewalk. Then he parks his van in the empty spaces. Seconds later, Getraer drives up and orders Ponch and Jon outside to blame them for parking on the sidewalk. As they get confused, they spot the large man. Getraer faces him and makes him move everything back while he writes a ticket.
After the weather clears, Ponch and Jon spot one of the hitch-hikers. She says her friend was taken in a van. Ponch chases after the van. Jon meets up with the chase shortly before the van drives up onto a sidewalk. The two men in the van are arrested.
After the next day's morning briefing, Ponch and Jon are called into Getraer's office for photos. As they put on their helmets and their pictures are taken, they find they're a few sizes too big.
