The episode begins with a crook stealing a car and killing a man in the process. However, the episode isn't just about this guy named Porter (Earl Holliman) but about an organization that helps wanted criminals like him get out of the United States and into South America.
Inspector Erskine poses as a scum-bag criminal on the run. He is able to eventually get the attention of this organization and they eventually take him, Porter and Porter's girlfriend (Barbara Luna) on a cross-country trip...and eventually to freedom. However, there are several problems. Porter's been shot and needs medical help, the whole process is shakedown and they keep demanding more and more money AND Erskine is on his own with no backup! Can he successfully make it out alive and bring down this criminal organization?
This is a pretty good episode. It's also interesting that Erskine seems to have some empathy towards Porter's girl. Overall, not a great installment but one worth seeing.
