Storyline

Allison finds herself working with FBI Agent Edward Cooper with whom she had previously worked (see Episode 3.6) and who didn't hesitate to execute a suspect when the criminal justice system failed to convict him. He's now looking for a serial killer and when Allison tells him she's seen the killer in her dreams, he insists that she work with him. Joe meanwhile is still trying to find investors for his solar energy project. He's been turned down pretty well everywhere but when someone finally comes forward, it's on the condition that they get 51% ownership of the new undertaking.

Trivia

Kurtwood Smith's character uses a string on his office door and hotel door to see if someone has been in his office or room; his character Red Forman in That '70s Show: Eric's Corvette Caper (2002) uses a hair strand in the ignition of his Corvette to see if Eric borrowed the car when he wasn't supposed to.

User Reviews

The "Killer of Killers" Returns...

HOO-RAY!!! Kurtwood Smith, freed from the strait-jacket of THAT '70's SHOW gets to play REALLY nasty characters again, and this time he's reprising his guest shot as FBI agent/moonlighting killer-of-serial-killers Edward Cooper. You remember him, right? Good agent with a really, really bad hobby. And although Alison is still bumping heads with him over his VERY elastic concept of justice being served, they team up again to catch another killer. Well, maybe "catch" is not quite the right word, but they do stop him. The circumstances regarding HOW they do it is what makes for one really interesting episode.

Oh, yeah, and meanwhile Joe's new invention and his efforts to find backers for it, has attracted the attention of a very attractive financier, played by no less than Mrs. John Travolta herself, Kelly Preston. I smell a story arc here, and it might not be a good one for Joe and Alison somewhere down the road...stay tuned.

Anyway, Kurtwood Smith delivers as always, and makes me hope that Agent Cooper will be back in future episodes. Hey, here's an idea! What about him and Arliss Howard's character in the same episode? Or would that be too much?
