Synopsis

A New York Private Investigator, Jerry Banning, is found shot to death in his hotel room. The only evidence the two Sams have to work with is the six telephone calls Banning made while in Palm Beach--five of which were to the Hamilton residence. So Chris and Rita decide to call Meridian Security and ask Banning's boss, "Champagne" Tony Morella, what Banning was doing in Palm Beach. Tony had not known where Banning had disappeared to, so he comes to Palm Beach--where he discovers that his old friend Harry Lipschitz is now working for the Palm Beach Police Department. Meanwhile Morella uses his friendship with Lipschitz to get info on the case, and then uses this knowledge for his own personal gain. Also: Keisha brings her daughter's exotic flu to the office; and Chris' long-planned Caribbean Fantasy Vacation with Jillian is ruined when he catches it.
