Dragnet: The Big Handcuffs (1956)
A truly kinky holdup man is the target of police detectives Friday (Jack Webb) and Smith (Ben Alexander). The perpetrator follows the same MO on each occasion: after committing a robbery, he handcuffs his victim to the nearest lampost, car bumper, drainpipe, barber pole, or what have you. Inasmuch as they're the only ones legally permitted to use handcuffs, the two detectives are determined to bring the lock-happy felon to justice. This episode was later adapted as short story in a 1957 paperback "Dragnet" anthology aimed at the school book-club trade. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
