Hit Lady

Stone and Keller are investigating the killing of a mobster's son and Steve finds romance with a new neighbor.

A good episode, the neighbor Sydney, is played by Brenda Vaccaro, her second and last appearance on the show. What Steve doesn't know is Sydney is a hit woman hired by the mobster. Barry Sullivan plays the mobster though his character disappears halfway through the show. Vaccaro makes for a cool, calculating killer.
