"Did you get a good look at them?" "Well, let me finish." "They said next time they'd do me like your girl." "Who?" "Well, I wasn't supposed to know, stocking mask and all, but I'm sure one of them was Crazy George Prudholm." "CAPTAIN:" "George Prudholm." "His right thumbprint matched the one from the robbery last night." "We just put an APB out on him 10 minutes ago." "I don't believe it." "George Prudholm was supposed to be at Caballo Point."

"[]" "HUTCH:" "Three years ago, Starsky busted a kid by the name of Gary Prudholm for selling heroin at a junior high school campus." "And two days later, the kid was knifed to death in a prison fight." "And the father always blamed Starsky for the death." "Oh, Prudholm." "You've told me about him before." "We put him away." "He killed two cops trying to get at me." "We put him away." "They let him loose..." "Hey, uh, I really appreciate your super cautious driving, but it is a constant reminder of my situation, okay?"
