This episode of Diagnosis Murder takes a very serious and dark turn with the revelation of child abuse. All credit to Alanna Ubach for her role as the victim Melissa Ridgeway, whose mother (played by Catherine Hicks) takes extreme measures to protect her from the predator stepfather, who was the Mayor presumably of LA - not Colorado because the show has without explanation moved from Colorado to LA. Mark refers to "LA cabs" during a discussion with Norman at a reception for the mayor (played by Eric "Alien Nation" Pierpoint").
Timothy "Psych" Omundson played Strand, who was set up for the murder of the mayor. I chuckled when Dr Sloan cracked a joke about the rock star Meatloaf...is Meatloaf his first name, or last name, is his wife Mrs Meatloaf??!!
