The Line Up -- The Cornered Cop Killer Case
Scott Burke has just been promoted from patrol officer to detective. Ben is assigned to work with him on his first case which involves a series of hold-ups of cocktail lounges.
It seems the suspect always does the same thing: He sits at the bar, has a couple of drinks, and plays Poor Butterfly over and over again on the juke box before pulling a gun and demanding money.
The detectives track the suspect to an apartment building where they believe he lives. It is there that things quickly get out of hand.
