"Just look at that; lipstick all over it"
Friday and Smith investigate a couple who have been breaking into vacationers houses and selling off the furniture. Really a public service announcement as much as a detective story, viewers are warned to not "keep their vacation a secret" but tell their neighbors, stop newspaper and milk (!) delivery and not close their blinds.
The comic relief, a newly married fellow officer and the bird shop owner, are nicely worked in and don't seem heavy handed or botched.
