Lots of interesting bits and pieces to enjoy in this episode. Marg Helgenberger plays the victim, ironically, about 10 years ahead of her starring role in the Las Vegas-based CSI. Vincent Schiavelli, a ubiquitous character actor has a strong bit part. Was there a TV show in the 1980s that Ken Kercheval did not appear in? Dick Gautier shows he's no Hymie the Robot. And what fun to see Sheldon Leonard play the Tout, a role he perfected on the Jack Benny Program thirty years before on radio. (How odd that Leonard's IMDb bio does not even mention his extensive Old time Radio work.)

Luck be a lawyer tonight
MaisieFleckum15 June 2022
Ben defends Atlanta police Lieutenant James Manning, who is accused of killing his girlfriend Victoria Rawlings. Rawlins is a sales representative for a line of sporting goods, or so it seems. Manning allegedly killed her in Las Vegas by strangling her with a bathrobe belt after learning that she was leading a double life. Her other identity was that of Ms. Laura Norwood, who was laundering money for the Mob. The glitz of Las Vegas is represented by tuxedo-clad singer Bobby Fremont, who is repeatedly shown singing Frank Loesser's "Luck Be a Lady Tonight" while showgirls dance around him.
Judge David Spinner presides over the courtroom.
