"D.H.Q.: The Victims" is the final episode of "Dragnet" and it's most unusual because it doesn't involve any one case but several robberies as well as murders. As such, it's a tough night for the detectives. The first is at a cheap hotel, where an elderly man is murdered for just a few dollars. The second, an real crazy robbery...just $.76! The third, an old woman is severely beaten, kicked and mugged. The fourth, two are shot at a grocery store...the first guy is shot three times for no reason, as he'd already given the robber the money!
As you watch the cases, you can't help but have your heart pulled into them. It's a story that's tied together because the focus is on the victims....and it's tough to watch at times. Be sure to have some Kleenex handy! Overall, very well written...and the speech Friday makes to the cocky young police officer is a classic.
