Joe goes back home again, to the grape farm he grew up on in Fresno, California. His dad (played by Victor Jory) is a widower and is still not too keen about his son leaving the farm for LA. His detective work does comes in handy, though, when a local Armenian defense attorney (played by Booth Colman) asks him to investigate the murder case against labor leader Juan Esparza, well played by Colombian actor Frank Ramirez.
Tag this another one of those small town mysteries where all the locals look suspicious, but you can't turn down a father and son reunion in the middle of it all. Right? And not to forget that Mike Connors was of Armenian descent, and occasionally will mention some wise, old Armenian sayings or cliches.
There's an excellent cast here; veteran heavy Anthony Caruso as Charlie and film and tv actress Francine York (as Helen). Also look for Marion Ross, playing Jean, who appeared in many dramatic roles, long before HAPPY DAYS. Best of the best is Victor Jory, one of the original cast members from GONE WITH THE WIND. Jory was born and raised in Canada, generally playing bad guys, such as in the HOPALONG CASSIDY westerns. His terrific voice was put to good use through the years as a narrator for films and documentaries.
Some very nice scenery here between punches.
