In this one, Joe goes undercover in the syndicate to try to extract an informer.
This is a great episode with an engaging plot that has several nice twists. It takes place in New Orleans and is the second straight one that takes place outside of Los Angeles.
The performances from the entire cast are superb. Nancy Kovack, John Colicos, Robert Mandan and Lloyd Battista all make return appearances. This is the first appearance for Barry Russo, who is no stranger to crime dramas as he appeared on many of them throughout the '70s.
Robert Reed has a substantial role and comes through with one of his best performances. His clandestine scenes with Joe are well-done.
It's interesting that at the beginning Hayes was identified by Lytell as one of the three men who could be the informer but was never seen again as the entire focus was only on Coden and Page, the other two Lytell identified.
Joe doesn't get slugged in the head but does get shot at but not hit, which is the only cliché.
This is a very entertaining episode and is the best one of the season so far.
