Photo Finish

Episode Number: 75    Season Num: 4    First Aired: Tuesday October 10, 1978    Prod Code: 71
Starsky and Hutch brush shoulders with high-society, at an exclusive party that photographer friend Marcie has invited them to, but the event grinds to a halt when an artist is shot dead by an unknown assassin. Marcie has caught the shooting on camera, and the Detective duo confiscate the pictures for Police evidence as they begin some black-tie sleuthing on the champagne circuit.
But Marcie is determined to use the valuable photos to break into big-time journalism, and quietly holds on to one to sell to the highest bidder – only for her life to now be endangered by the killer, who is determined to get their hands on the incriminating film...

Notes

add »
The exterior of the mansion used in this story is a set commonly seen in many such series, and would most notably go on to be used as the exterior of the Foundation for Law And Government (F.L.A.G.) headquarters in 'Knight Rider' (1982-1986). (edit)
Series Assistant Director Eldon Burke has a small cameo as a Patrolman in this story. He had previously made another small appearance in the third season episode 'The Action'. (edit)
Although the fourth shown, this episode was actually the first to be filmed for the season. (edit)
