This episode of McMillan&Wife finds Rock Hudson and Susan St.James at a tennis club where a pregnant St.James is looking to improve her backhand from tennis pro Robert Wolders. So is their host Stefanie Powers, trophy wife to the wealthy Andrew Duggan. It's Duggan whose death they wind up investigating and all signs point to Wolders who has disappeared.
Naturally Hudson isn't buying it and he's never happy except when he's taking leave of his administrative duties and doing actual police work with the assistance of his wife and trusty housekeeper Nancy Walker. There's one scene in which Hudson who was about 6'4" had to almost bend in half to give Nancy Walker peck on the cheek. Walker was barely over 5 feet tall. They did look a bit silly.
Other suspects include Duggan's son George Maharis who was always playing surly characters and this is no exception. The will leaves him the bulk of the estate. There's also William Windom who is Wolders manager and he gets a hefty insurance policy settlement if something happens to him.
I had this one half figured out, there were two perpetrators and I only guessed one of them.
As the Nick&Nora Charles of the 70s Rock and Susan were always stylish, no exception here.
