The man From U.N.C.L.E., Oscar-nominated Robert Vaughn (The Young Philadelphians) appears in this episode as a man with a big grudge against Adam Schiff (Steven Hill), who is fighting for his political life.
His Executive A.D.A (Sam Waterston) is facing ethics charges, and Jaime Ross (Carey Lowell) is testifying as she leaves the department. What will she say? Lt. Van Buren (S. Epatha Merkerson) gets the news in no uncertain terms that the brass wants her resignation for filing a lawsuit, and Lenny (Jerry Orbach) is debating on whether or not to make a deal with a con to kill the man who killed his daughter.
Among all this, there is a 10-year-old girl that is barely alive after being raped and everyone wants this case closed pronto.
