The Sunday Torch

The Sunday Torch. Episode # 125, Season Six. Originally aired
October 9 1973.

Somebody's setting fires every Sunday in Honolulu. As the fire investigator suggests it's a sexually frustrated pyro doing the job, McGarrett sees a shrink and contemptuously asks to see the files of all she's treated for fire-lovin'. The shrink is axiomatically athiestic and McGarrett angrily tears into her: "Doctor, I've got a job to do. There's a psycho trying to burn down this city. McGarrett's contempt proves utterly well founded as the shrink and a local pharmaceutical dealer were cooking up a scheme to frame a local match-sniffing patsy to a murder.

Highlight: the pyro's sad staring at a little sterno flame.
