Although he's mostly forgotten today, this show features Canadian rock and roll singer Andy Kim as Rick Michaels, a rock star (naturally). However, early in the episode he dies...accidentally. But when Sue (Arlene Galonka) and Phil (Jackie Coogan) find the body, Sue comes up with a horrible plan...to hide the body and then write up a fake ransom note in order to get a big payoff. What they don't know is that there was a witness to his fatal fall...and Barnaby Jones has been hired to find this woman.
One thing I loved about this episode is how heartless and evil the character is who is played by Arlene Galonka. I appreciate this since she usually played sickeningly sweet characters (such as when she was a regular on "Mayberry RFD")....and playing such a terrible person must have been fun for her! She really put her heart into it...and is fun to watch.
Overall, an unusual episode and a must for Andy Kim fans. The plot is unique and the story worth your time.
