A man has been writing bum checks and his routine is consistent. He visits a woman with a room to rent and he pays for the room using a check....and gets the lady to agree to make it for a bit more, as he 'needs a few dollars'. So, in each case, you have a phoney check and all the man really cheats the women out of is $20-25....a small amount but a crime nevertheless. Friday and Smith investigate and soon discover the man is using an alias, as the name he's given belongs to a dead small-time actor.
This is a modestly entertaining episode. Well done but not especially memorable...but like nearly all "Dragnet" episodes, one worth seeing.
