Plot summary

Kimble comes to the aid of Jimmy, a Hispanic teen, who is being bullied by other teens in part because of his ethnic background, and in part because he is returning from violin lessons with his instrument. Jimmy's father, played by actor Gilbert Roland, thanks Kimble for his help, and wrongly blames Jimmy for being in the fight.

When Kimble's identity becomes known, police close in, and Kimble gets away under the nose of Jimmy's uncle, a police officer, who falls under suspicion of being in sympathy with Kimble. Kimble calls upon Jimmy to help hide him, which he does. However, Jimmy's conservative father senses Kimble's involvement with his son as a danger to his family and determines that he must capture Kimble to protect them. Kimble must change the attitudes of many people before he can make his escape.
