When Dimin provides Kojak some mouth, Kojak picks up Dimin’s chair and dumps him on the floor, convincing him and the other two men to be more respectful in the future. Kojak is suspicious a few current encounter he had with money launderer Ken Dimin (Alan Dexter) and when he finds Dimin at a neighborhood restaurant, he’s in the corporate of two Las Vegas “money males,” Mesche (John Goddard) and Tony Curcio (Alex Rocco). He finds a photo in her jacket which exhibits her and one Mickey Reason (Paul Savior). Gomez (Victor Campos) quizzes her and finds out that at the very least 50 sandbags were stolen from her neighborhood park where youngsters had been building a clubhouse. There isn’t any suggestion that this girl lives in Scylar-on-the-Hudson, but when Kojak and Crocker go there, Kojak makes a connection between a park close to the crooks’ house and a neighborhood park just like the place the place Contreras said sandbags had been stolen.
At one point in the present, Mrs. Contreras (Alma Beltran), a hysterical woman who solely speaks Spanish, and who seems like she just lives down the road in Manhattan South, involves the station. Kojak goes to Scylar-on-the-Hudson, a bogus excessive-finish community which looks like it isn’t too close to Manhattan, as a result of there’s a stock shot of Kojak’s car merging on to the freeway when he begins travelling there. Kojak and Crocker are close behind, and they power Tomasso’s Lincoln Continental off the highway and right into a bar. The only thing that bothers me is during the road occasion there are seemingly only two black guys there, DuBois and the other shooter, Slade (Ji Tu Cumbuka), yet no one including Kojak can remember anything about them until later when Kojak connects a picture of DuBois from the party with another that was taken of DuBois meeting Tomasso’s number one man Serafin (Anthony Charnota) in a “soul meals” cafe. Due to this, Kojak and Crocker return there the place they figure out (a bit too easily — see beneath) that Bradbury and his buddies are the identical gang who pulled off the Coopers Point robbery and are pulling the identical number on a neighborhood bank.
A group Owner is a member that has initiated the creation of a gaggle to connect with other members to share their journey by way of the identical pregnancy & baby phases. Together with the placement of the pay cellphone as per the quantity on Curcio’s $a hundred invoice, the latest appearance of the Vegas money males, the amount of money Curcio was carrying, and the fact that Scylar-on-the-Hudson is a wealthy neighborhood, Kojak one way or the other deduces that the identical thieves are at work pulling off the same robbery right now — all of which is way too intelligent. Crocker can discover the placement of the phone quantity on Curcio’s $a hundred bill for the place on Moreland shortly which means that Scylar-on-the-Hudson is in the new York City area, particularly contemplating there is no area code (the brand new York City 212 space code began in 1947 and was not expanded till 1984, a number of years after the show went off the air).
