- Quotes
Beth Davenport: I hope Angel won't say anything that's gonna get Rocky into trouble.
Jim Rockford: Hey, Angel has been in stir, he knows better than to talk without his lawyer present and you're his lawyer. Angel knows better - he'll keep his mouth shut.
Evelyn 'Angel' Martin: [Scene changes to Angel being interrogated by Federal Agents]
[Excitedly]
Evelyn 'Angel' Martin: See, you want to be talking to Jim Rockford and his father, Joseph. Let me spell that for ya: That's Rockford, R-O-C-K-F-O-R-D.
Rocky has won a trip to Hawaii (something they forgot about in season six's Hawaii episode) and so Jim is getting his mail forwarded to him. He surprised to say the least when an envelope full of hundred dollar bills arrives for a total of $11,000 one day (a few bills of which Angel sneaks away!) Day after day the money keeps coming in with no clue as to why. Jim can't reach Rocky and the next thing you know, the Feds (including one agent who's a dead ringer for former California governor Grey Davis!) , the cops and the bad guys are all after Rockford.
The script is tight and full of humor. It makes good use of Angel, the fetching Gretchen Corbett as Beth and "Magnum" regular Roger E. Mosely as loan shark Electric Larry.
