One Born Every Minute

One Born Every Minute. Episdoe # 137, Season 6. Originally Aired January 8 1974.

"You've been taken by a high class bunco operation" McGarrett snappily tells a couple of idiotic tourists who taken by a scam by legendary con artist Joe Connors (St. Elsewhere's Ed Flanders). Lots of driving around Oahu in a red convertible as the sexy moll-wife lays the bait for the next stooge (Recognizable to me as one of the Star Trek lonely planet madmen) who wants to stray from his battleaxe-wife. Five-0 methodically (as always) find out the scammers who are praying on rich married men "with their bellies and funny shirts." I particularly liked McGarrett's advice to Dan-o and Chin about this being like "Hunting quail--tip toe all the way."

Highlight: McGarrett's almost mad scientist laugh when he asks "How does it feel to be conned by a dumb cop?"
