Plot: Jon responds to an accident involving Pat, a friend of Getraer's son Timmy. Meanwhile, a black car that sped away from an accident is seen in a garage while the occupants seem to be plotting something illegal. Getraer is seen visiting Pat in the hospital. Later on, we can figure out that a complex bank robbery is being planned. At the Getraer home, it's decided that Pat can stay there. The hit and run car is finally found and the driver arrested. Pat's dad, Bill McGuire, is tracked down and comes in from Las Vegas...but Pat has run away. Steve finds Pat on his way to the hospital to see his mom and arrests him for "Grand Theft Moped" and instructs to walk to the hospital where he meets his dad. The bank robbers get deeper into their plans and the CHP is on the move. As the bank alarm goes off, there's a major traffic accident nearby. While the LAPD takes care of the accident, Jon and Steve chase the robbers car. In a classic truck-backing-into-an-alley scene, they crash into the truck and are arrested. Back at Getraer's house, Sarge knocks over a rock collecting case and everyone laughs.
