  Episode Notes  
The ruse in this episode by which the Untouchables deliberately allow one of their prisoners to escape was also used in Season One's The Doreen Maney Story.
 
Sondra Blake is billed as Sondra Kerr, her maiden name, in the ending credits. She was married at one time to actor Robert Blake.
 
This episode serves as a companion episode of sorts to Season Two's Jamaica Ginger Story in that they both describe the battle against the distribution of rotgut Jamaica Ginger alcohol.
 
Locations: Chicago, Wichita
 
  Episode Quotes  
Hobson: (to Dr. Gifford) The longer you stay in this job, the madder you get. Don't use it up all at once. There's a lot more of these cockroaches.
 
Ness: (to Gifford and Garr) Meet Nicholas Contine. He sells poison for a living.
 
Garr: (to Gifford) What are you doing? The roof's falling in on these people.
 
Ness: (about the stolen hair tonic) Doesn't sound like anybody'd wanna drink it.
Contine: Not unless they have a cast iron stomach.
 
Frohlich: You two had some sort of trouble in Wichita?
Gifford: Just some sort of intramural collision.
 
Garr: (about the stolen hair tonic) Maybe we better start looking for 23,000 hospital beds.
 
  Analysis  
Drs. Gifford and Garr return for Round Two and this one is slightly better than their previous appearance although it's still one of the lesser episode of Season Four. Should be marked for die-hards only.
