The sound of heavy machinery awakens Jim at six o’clock one morning. Police and a man in an expensive suit supervise excavation of the beach near Jim’s trailer. The man in the suit is psychic Roman Clementi, here to assist the police in their search for Rick Richards and Allison Curry. The psychic claims they’re dead, and lying near a body of water. On top of that, Rocky arrives with a new tiller – he’s going ahead with his plans for a new truck garden, and he wants help from Jim with the heavy lifting. Jim’s day starts off badly, and then Clementi decides Jim has information relevant to the case, earning him unwanted attention from drug peddlers and the police, both of whom very much want to find $80,000 in missing drug money.

Episode Notes |

Robert Walden was about a year from his role as liberal crusader Joe Rossi on Lou Grant, quite a different character from sleezy record executive Barry Silverstein.

Episode Quotes |

(Jim lives in a trailer on the beach.)
Answering Machine Message: Teddy’s Treehouse! You’ve won free landscaping services for one full year!! We’ll mow your lawn, top your trees, mulch, seed, fertilize and feed. Isn’t that wonderful?!?
| Jim: I would like to discuss the party favors that told you about the cocaine while I was getting bounced around my living room!
Roman Clementi: Party favors?
Jim: Yeah... Bugs! Little listening devices?!?
| Jim: You show up at my beachfront and you use me as a sounding board... “Rockford knows something he isn’t telling.” Now, when that hits the media. there are certain people who start worrying about me – like the killers, for example!
| (Rockford confronts Roman Clementi. Clementi has published a book using Rockford’s name, without permission. Irritated because Clementi’s tactics nearly cost him his life, Rockford seizes a chance for revenge by obtaining an injunction to halt publication.)
Roman Clementi: Are you insane?!? Do you know what this injunction will do to me? Do you have any conception of what it entails to take all references to you out of the book?!? Look, there are 250,000 copies already published!! I have personal appearances, autographs...
Jim: (smugly) You’re the psychic! You know, I would have thought that you’d have seen this coming, swami!
