"The Two Faces of Betsy Morgan"
AIRDATE: 10.20.84

WHAT SAID:

A teen-age prostitute (Jill Whitlow) is targeted by a pair of psychotic killers who know she can identify them in the murder of another girl.

SYNOPSIS:

While cruising the boulevard, Joseph Rask and Les Fyker pick up teenage prostitutes Betsy and Lori. When Fyker approaches Lori with a rope and gun, Rask grabs for Betty, but loses control of the van and it flips on its side. Witnessing the accident, Hooker and Romano arrive in enough time to pull Betsy free. When they pull Lori free she is dead, not from the accident, but from strangulation. The "Boulevard Strangler" has hit again. All of the Strangler's victims are young runaways, so Corrigan goes to the bus station to post notices. There he meets depot supervisor Les Fyker. Meanwhile, Betsy fails to show up at the police station as she promised. Hooker and Romano go to Lincoln High to meet with Edie, a friend of Betsy's. Edie tells them Betsy has gone to the bus station. When Hooker and Romano arrive, they see Fyker and Rask chasing her. Rask runs into the street and is hit and killed by a car but Fyker manages to escape without being identified. Later Fyker visits Corrigan at the precinct. As he departs, he sees Stacy and Betsy and follows them to Stacy's home. Through a series of tips, Hooker and Corrigan realize Fyker is the Strangler and hurry to Stacy's apartment when Corrigan remembers that Fyker was at the station when Stacy and Betsy were leaving. They arrive to find Stacy tied up in a chair and Betsy down at the boat docks fleeing from Fyker. Hooker finally overpowers Fyker and arrests him.
