    King Jack

    Michael and Kitt get into the betting scene to solve help out a hapless friend who seems to have no idea of the nefarious people she has surrounded herself with. Acting was mediocre and the storyline decent.

    No horsing around

    An acquaintance from a previous case, Maxine Flemming, loses her race horse King Jack after an accident. However, Michael soon surmises that the horse hasn't been shot as Maxine was led to believe, but being put is up for sale by her partner Tommy Lee to pay of his gambling debts.

    A really good episode that has twists, hoodlums, a crooked horse partner and Michael helping out a friend to get to truth about her horse. The Hoff might not be an Oscar winner contender but as Michael Knight he shows warmth and sympathy to a heartbroken friend, shelling out sage advice, but can get tough with the bad guys.

      Michael Knight: K.I.T.T...

      Bonnie Barstow: Did you bet a horse?

      Devon Miles: With Foundation money?

      K.I.T.T.: Michael, I was just trying to bail out your auto currency statement. Statistically, I couldn't lose.

      Devon Miles: That's what they all say.

      K.I.T.T.: Michael, can I ask you a favor?

      Michael Knight: [leans closer] Yeah partner, what is it?

      K.I.T.T.: Lend me 20 dollars?
