    Not the best but not the worst

    At least Jeanne Cooper got to play a sympathetic character for a change. She was usually stuck playing creepy women, but here she is an old friend of Victoria's (Ms. Cooper also got stuck playing women older than she was, too - she was not Stanwyck's contemporary - she was actually younger than Richard Long).

    Here she's the unsuspecting victim of her own husband, who turns out to be a former outlaw not so reformed. The plot is an often used one - bad guys take over a store to tunnel into the bank next door.

    Not all that exciting and pretty predictable.

    • Trivia
      First episode in which Victoria actually sports the shorter hair cut shown in series intro.
    • Goofs
      When the basement window is kicked in, the sound of smashing glass is heard before the boot touches the glass panes: out of sync.
