Episode Quotes

Jolene Hyland: You're not mad at me - are you?
Jim Rockford: No - why?
Jolene Hyland: Because of what I thought back there.

Jolene Hyland: I had no right!
Jim Rockford: You had every right.
Jolene Hyland: Well, I really feel awful about it. Will you forgive me?
Jim Rockford: Jolene, do you know what you do?
Jolene Hyland: What?
Jim Rockford: You apologize - all the time!
Jolene Hyland: I do?
Jim Rockford: Yeah.
Jolene Hyland: I'm sorry.
Jim Rockford: This is Jim Rockford. At the tone leave your name and message, I'll get back to you.
Caller: It's Doc Jones. What did you do to the hand, son - three fractured knuckles! You hit somebody?

Mistakes/Goofs

  • Goof (continuity error): When Jim drives past the car hauler pursued by the bad guys in the Chrysler, the way is blocked by a car being unloaded, a Cadillac. When the bad guys pass the hauler immediately after, the car in the street is a Chevy Vega.
  • Goof (continuity error): After Jim drives up the car hauler his pursuers drive right by & turn left but, when Jim drives off the car carrier to awaiting police. The bad guys he just eluded have their 1967 Chrysler parked right behind the same trailer just past the driveway.
