Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThis was an extended show, and served as a sort of "backdoor pilot" for Jerry Orbach's spin-off series, The Law and Harry McGraw (1987).
- GoofsWhile listening to a TV report about an upcoming bout involving a fighter she is managing (reluctantly), Jessica hears the TV anchor/reporter note that the opponent (Sean Shaleen) grew up in a small Wisconsin town "a few miles east of Sheboygan." Since Sheboygan is on the western edge of Lake Michigan, that would mean be he lived in the middle of the lake.
- Quotes
[last lines]
Harry McGraw: I know. But I sold them something even better. The inside story of a tough, resourceful private eye, who single-handedly broke open one of the largest murder cases of the decade.
Jessica Fletcher: Single-handedly?
Harry McGraw: So I exaggerated a little. What's a little white lie between friends?

Death takes a dive
Thanks to her latest run-in with Harry McGraw, Jessica discovers that she now is the manager of a down-on-his-luck prize fighter who is looking to retire following his next fight. And while getting a crash course on her new endeavor, she has her hands full trying to clear Harry in the murder of a shady fight promoter ( Adam West)
Chemistry and team work between Harry and Jessica is great as usual. Jessica's facial expression at Harry's schemes is hilarious. However, it's just an ok episode which overstays its welcome with its longer than normal . My favourite Batman - Adam West - guest stars and his character gets iced midway.
