Hot Shot

The officers pull over a car on a traffic violation and find the driver is Reno West, a cat burglar Malloy sent to prison four years previous, and Malloy is suspicious that West will resume his career, as he is found later at the library looking up likely articles to steal while investigating stolen books. Other cases include removal of an abandoned car, a robbery which turns to murder as the shopowner is killed, the suspect is chased into a tunnel where Reed is forced to kill him after a standoff, and a hostage situation involving a distraught man and his daughter; the officers are able to end the situation peaceably despite the man having a bead on Reed with his gun.
