Summary
0565 - The Smoking Pistol (12/14/1976) Written by Sam Dann. Directed by Himan Brown. Cast: Howard DaSilva; Ann Pitoniak; Rosemary Rice; Bob Kaliban. A cop's son (an undercover detective) is murdered and a suspect is found with the weapon; the cop thinks it's an open-and-shut case, but doubts enter his mind when the suspect's mother (who claims her son didn't pull the trigger) begs him to investigate further.
