Plot Overview

Gunn and Jacoby are hard-pressed to figure out a motive when a Korean war hero goes on a killing spree. At first, they figure he's out for revenge against some of his fellow servicemen who bullied him, as both men who were killed served with him, but they can't figure out why he also stole $12,000 from one of the victims, a gangster.
