Cut to the station, with the over-used but familiar establishing shot
of the Torino parked right in front. I don't know who Starsky sucked
up to for four years to make sure he got the best spot in the station,
but he did good. He'll need all that charm to deal with Dobey because
the Captain is not very happy. They screwed up, again, and Dobey's
gonna lay into them. But look at them! The poor boys are wet to the
core, huddled in blankets to try to get warm. Starsky's bare feet are
propped up on Dobey's desk and you can almost see the boy's pruned
skin. But Dobey will not be emotionally manipulated, they weren't
supposed to do anything but stayed buried in the beauty salon.
Arresting the perp was dumb, but if you had to work in that salon day
after day, wouldn't you want a little excitement, too? Starsky does
not do bored very well. He tends to get in trouble, which by extension
means Hutch tends to get in trouble. They were supposed to wait for a
jewelry heist that may or may not go down in the hotel and with no
action so far, Starsky made his own. Starsky also tries to say that
the whole arrest was just an instinctive gesture and Hutch has to
chime in that they're sometimes impetuous. Yeah, those boys are
impulsive and passionate, I'll give them that.



Hutch wants to know about "The Baron" and honestly, so do I. Word came
down from Scotland Yard that "The Baron" might be paying a visit to
Bay City. Oooh, he's an international thief if they've got word from
Scotland Yard. Nobody knows what "The Baron" looks like, but the crime
will likely go down within the next 48 hours. The Belvedere Diamonds
are at stake and it's the boys' job to protect them. But they do have
one clue to go on. Scotland Yard knows what kind of cigars the guy
smokes. Dobey tells them to get to know the cigars. "Smoke them, eat
them, chew them, stick them in your pocket, I don't care what you do
with them." They are identified by Hutch, of course, as Corona
Superbas. Hutch is smart, he uses big words and knows his cigars.
He's also a very, very gay hairdresser. It all evens out in the end.


Establishing shot of the outside of the hospital, just so you know
Buddy got hurt bad. Inside the hospital room, Buddy's gun and holster
and hanging from the traction rod and Bernie Hamilton makes the best
in-canon blooper ever. He leans on the table and it collapses. David
has to aid his line and he does it beautifully. Mr. Tyrone is
unavailable at the moment because he short-circuited one of the hair
dryers and Ms. Zuckerman was not amused. Hutch is more concerned with
beating on an already-injured Buddy. Payback's bad ain't it? Hutch is
busy playing with Buddy's gun while Dobey states point of fact, if the
goons wanted Buddy dead, he'd be dead. Buddy has an appointment with
the courier tomorrow, along with the two buyers. Hutch is too busy
yawning to care. Does this bore you? Dobey gives him a look as Buddy
continues talking. Now Hutch is picking at Buddy's hair like an ape.
Hutch would rather play gay than play cop, as witnessed by his
slipping right back into character for no apparent reason in the
middle of the scene. Normal voice, normal voice, welcome back Marlene.
The appointment is set, the buyers are on their way, case is going
forward whether Buddy is laid up or not. In the hospital hallway, "The
Baron" is playing doctor.
