This episode is one of the creepiest Mod Squad shows! The trio is planted in an acting community to find out who is killing the young starlet wannabes.

Norman has a habit of walking into the starlets rooms and sniffing their stockings and other unmentionables! The TV Host who is a perv and cant keep his clammy paws off of the starlets, and the abusive actor wannabe Timmy who thinks he is a Brando/Dean all are suspect, but dont count out the other characters.
