    A criminal who uses a teen to commit act of crime, turns his hatred toward HUtch. hide show

    This is one of my favorite episodes. It isn't perfect but it is dark and suspensful. I wish they would have expanded the scene in which Hutch's trunk explodes. The shocked look on both Starsky and Hutches faces at the explosion were very realistic; it often takes the brain a second or two to process a tramatic event. I would have liked to see what happened immediately after. I also like the end. Even Hutch can't be mad at the teen who was his tormentor, he is simply too pitiful to hate.
