    Storyline

    Did you know

    • Trivia
      The episode begins and ends at the Los Angeles Memorial Sports Arena. This ultra modern arena was located next to the venerable LA Memorial Coliseum. The Sports Arena was only a couple of years old at the time of this filming, but had already hosted the 1960 Democratic Convention and served as the home of USC and UCLA basketball, the LA Lakers of the NBA, and the LA Blades of the Western Hockey League. Its ultra modern exterior is clearly shown late in the episode. However, the boxing ring shown is nothing like that of the Sports Arena.
    • Quotes
      • Joe Smith: Murder?
      • Dr. Richard Kimble: Arrested. Tried. Convicted. Innocent.
      • Joe Smith: I believe you.
