Sabrina is the focus of the storyline. This episode features beautiful California meadows and mountains, in a resort setting. It appears Kate Jackson was really enjoying herself in this episode unlike any other; The scenes on horseback and by the brook are of particular note. Why couldn't she have smiled more often in the series? A degree of romance combined with nice outdoor scenery makes for a treat. They probably should have written more "love story" episodes. But, it is nice to see Kate step out of her "detective" role for a change and show us a romantic side. Good acting by Peter Haskell rounds out the show. Does anybody know where Utopia West really is?

Angels version of the DB Cooper story.

Warning: Spoilers
A murder at a remote new age resort puts the Angels into action, Kris as a yoga instructor, Sabrina as a (what else) magazine reporter, and Kelly just looking her hot self. This one falls into the category of 'if only the suspect did what they'd come to accomplish the episode would have been over in no time'.
The crime is a DB Cooper style hijacking, the money hidden somewhere in the resort. The man who knew where the cash was stashed was killed leaving his partner in the dark as to where to find his two million dollars. Coincidently, the money just happens to be hidden in the cabin that Kris and Kelly are staying in, leading to an attack by a man trying to find the loot.
Meanwhile Sabrina falls in like with a man staying at the resort who just happens to be the hijacker. Now if only he had spent his time searching for the money instead of romancing one of the Angels he might have gotten away. As it is, there ends being two suspects, the murderer and the hijacker, and in the end they both get nabbed and we see Sabrina a little sad at the end. Well, I guess she could have chosen the money, but then she would no longer would have been one of Charlie's Angels, would she?

The show is a 9. The person adding trivia to this and every other episode is a -5

My review really isn't about this particular episode but more of a commentary on some the general trivia/goofs that a person keeps leaving that have NOTHING to do with the show, plot or otherwise. My example is the ridiculous delineation included about.....wait for it.....the colors peach and apricot. So unnecessary just like the constant comments about them never wearing seat belts. It was the 70's. No one on any cop show did. EVER. Not even in real life. This is not trivia. You also seem bothered by the fact that the cars that are parked in front of the agency don't always dictate who in the next scene. Those are called "bumper shots" (no, not car bumpers) that simply lead us into the next scene. Nothing germane to the storyline. I hope this helps in explaining why it seems frustrating to a long time fan. Now back to our regularly scheduled program. Good Morning, Charlie.
