SnowstormEpisode Number: 5 Season Num: 1 First Aired: Wednesday October 1, 1975 Prod Code: SH1-05 |
Starsky and Hutch, along with three Narco detectives, make a large drug bust, nabbing a $3,000,000 cocaine shipment. Following the successful raid, the pair comes under suspicion by both the department and an unhappy drug lord who claims a million dollars worth of the drugs have disappeared. They're given 48 hours to clear their names and their fellow detectives, and nail the drug lord behind the operation–the same man who was responsible for the murder of Captain Dobey's former partner years before. And Hutch wants to know why he keeps spotting a Dalmatian dog that seems to appear whenever danger lurks nearby...

Hutch: (to Stryker) Never pick on a man's partner .
(edit)
Huggy: You know I don't eat my own food!
(edit)
Starsky: (on the 'squeak' in Hutch's car) It's driving me nuts and you don't hear it?!
Hutch How 'bout I put you on roller skates and tow you along in back? Would you like that? (edit) Hutch: (on questioning a suspect) Push and shove?
Starsky: You play the bad guy for a change...I'm tired. (edit)

Hutch refers to Starsky's red-and-white Gran Torino as the "striped tomato" for the first time in this episode. A nick-name that often comes to be associated with the vehicle, especially by fans
(edit)
During the shoot-out with the bad-guys at the beginning of this episode, a shot is fired at Starsky, with the rear of the Gran Torino directly behind him. As Starsky dives out of the bullet's trajectory, it should have squarly hit the Torino, but there was no 'bullet hit' or other mark on the car.
(edit)
There is a shot of Starsky and Hutch on their way to Huggy's, then a shot of Huggy's which has no cars in front. The next shot is Starsky and Hutch pulling up to Huggy's and parking behind a car. This is probably because the first shot of Huggy's is stock footage.
(edit)
As Burke, Corman and Kalowitz in thier brown Torino force Hutch's Galaxie 500 to the side of the road, the two cars stop with the front doors only inches away from each other, making it impossible to open either of the opposing doors.
In a very quick edit, the cars are now several feet apart from each other, making it possible for the antagonists and our heroes to exit thier vehicles and confront each other. (edit) At the bust, the bad guys are being handcuffed, Hutch answers a question from Kalowitz as he holds his prisoner. He then grabs Starsky's handcuffed prisoner and begins to walk away. In the next shot, Starsky is still cuffing his prisoner and he is no where near Hutch. He then shoves his prisoner over to Hutch. (edit)
