Decent series entry. Ignore the nay-sayers!

I've seen the negative reviews that many have given for this episode and frankly they don't make sense to me this is a series that consists of pretty short episodes and you have to use a fair amount of skill to work out a plot in that time and they do a decent job with this episode. Everything hangs together. It has the usual jazz club atmosphere and scene, the repartee between Peter and his girlfriend. The new bad guy isn't well fleshed out, but the people he hires to do his dirty work are given adequate motivations. One is a bit of a surprise, but perfectly plausible.

There's a good sequence where the lieutenant runs some mobile surveillance.
