Premiering once again on You Tube in (HD 1080p) taken from a decent 16mm print Police Woman: "Bait" Season 3, Episode 9. Air Date - December 7, 1976. Storyline - Case of rape. As you can guess with the title, it is a question of a rape case where the suspect can't be nailed because there are not enough evidence against him. So, as you can also guess, the police force will have to use a bait to actually nail the rapist. The foreseeable scheme, as we have seen so many times in crime flicks, for big screen or TV series. No real surprise here but it remains attractive, a rather good quality episode, pulled by convincing performances, poignant and worth seeing. You can't avoid such stories, rape tales, in a cop TV show. It is also destined to female audiences, so it remains useful, although a little too much didactic from time to time.
