Plot Overview

While working the Juvenile Division, Friday and Gannon are summoned to a local park to investigate a teenage boy attempting to chew the bark off a tree. His face is painted half-blue, and he appears to be under the influence of a narcotic. Joe discovers that the boy is using LSD and tries to have him brought up on charges, but runs into a snag with the boy's parents, who insists that their son's behavior is typical of kids. Suspecting that he might be selling acid as well as using it, the two detectives set out to find the boy.

Behind the Scenes

John Randolph was the name Jack Webb used whenever he wrote a script...his full name was John Randolph Webb. He obviously didn't know of the actor named John Randolph (real name Ethan John Coen), but the actor Randolph did appear once in a Webb series later on, an episode of O'Hara, U.S. Treasury.
