  Episode Quotes  
Stanwood: Are you going straight, Darden?
Darden: Like a arrow.
 
Kulak: Tomorow night. Do I make myself clear?
Barrigan: You're not too subtle, Kulak.
 
Ness: (to Barrigan) Kulak's deals are pretty one-sided.
 
Joker: A friend wants to see you.
Barrigan; You wouldn't know any of my friends, Joker.
 
Kulak: It's beginning to rain, Mr. Barrigan. Surely you know enough to come in out of it.
 
Ness: (to Barrigan) You get in a hole with Kulak you can yell your head off. Nobody will be listening.
 
  Analysis  
Here we have a change of pace for Robert Stack. In an undercover role he gets the chance to dress and act like a hoodlum and pulls it off nicely.
