Dragnet: The Big Search (1956)
Friday (Jack Webb) and Smith (Ben Alexander) are summoned to the home of wealthy Mr. and Mrs. Moran (Tom Brown, Virginia Carroll), whose 13-year-old daughter Bunny (Frances Karath) has disappeared. All evidence suggests that the girl has been kidnapped, especially since her dog has been found beaten to death in her room--and most especially when a suspect (Robert Jordan) makes several pointed comments suggesting that he knows Bunny's whereabouts. When the girl turns up safe and sound, she insists that she was indeed kidnapped; trouble is, she changes her story every time she is questioned, leading Friday to suspect that she's holding something back. This episode is based on the Dragnet radio broadcast of July 6, 1954. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
