Enredo
Você sabia?
- CuriosidadesThere were rumors that Garner and Lauren Bacall were romantically linked around the time of this episode's filming in 1979. Garner had separated from his wife, and Bacall guest starred on this episode of The Rockford Files. Garner denied the rumor and said it was the pressures of the show which led to the months-long separation from his longtime spouse. He soon got back together with his wife and remained with her permanently, though he did work with Bacall a year or two later in two movies. Ironically perhaps, in the second of those movies, O Fã: Obsessão Cega (1981) they played ex spouses.
- Erros de gravaçãoAs Jim visits the princess for the first time, the large shadow of the moving boom mic is very apparent on the wall behind them.
- Citações
Evelyn 'Angel' Martin: Sucker bets! Would I bring you sucker bets?
Jim Rockford: You'd bring me a dead rat in your teeth if you thought there was twenty bucks in it for you!
- Cenas durante ou pós-créditosThe title is introduced in a staggered fashion. As patrons drive up to a restaurant's valet station, the word "Lions" appears when an elderly couple in a Rolls Royce drive up; then "Tigers" when a couple drive up in a Ferrari 308; then "Monkeys" when a wild costumed couple arrive in a modified Duesenberg convertible; and finally, "Dogs" when Rockford and his date appear in his gold Pontiac.
- Versões alternativasThis special double-length episode (2 hours with commercials) was split in 2 parts for syndication. That version adds a "next on" sequence and closing credits both at the end of "part 1", and a "coming up" preview, opening credits, and a "previously on" sequence all at the beginning of "part 2".

Fast tracked to a case
Poor Jim Rockford. As this two part episode begins James Garner has a dinner date and a reservation at a really snooty place. But he's left in line as a bunch of elegant snobs that include movie queens Dana Wynter and Lauren Bacall get fast tracked to a table. But during the course of conversation with the maitre'd it is dropped that Rockford is a well known private detective.
He gets hired by Dana Wynter the next day and for once doesn't have to dog a client about a bill. Garner's mission is to protect Lauren Bacall because someone is trying to kill her.
Someone does, something Garner successfully prevents and then spends the rest of the episode trying to track him down. That only leads to questions answered in the second part.
Wynter and Bacall are an interesting pair. Wynter is a princess, she's got money oozing from every pore and influence that makes even James Luisi cower when dealing with Garner.
As for Bacall she and Garner get sufficiently friendly to let it drop that she's quite the fraud. She's a woman who is schooled in the arts of societal behavior and protocol and as such she's a valuable hanger on with the beautiful people. Lauren is a lot like Florence Bates in Saratoga trunk, broke but with connections that keep her in the societal mix.
As we know two years after this episode Bacall and Garner co-starred in The Fan. A lot of that chemistry is found here and in the second part.
