Don't miss this chance a great rare script from this episode!

Storyline: Malloy and Reed deal with a suspicious-looking elderly man carrying two paper bags full of items they suspect don't belong to him, then a couple of street racers. But most of their shift is preoccupied with a case at Amalgamated Products. Their first visit is to investigate a reported theft. The owner, Phil Watters, has accused one of his employees, Elmo Constant, of stealing one of the products they manufacture, which has since been returned. There are a couple of problems with the accusation; First, the product in question is top-secret so Watters refuses to hand it over for evidence, and without material evidence, Constant cannot be charged. Second, Amalgamated's head of security is Ed Bowler, an ex-LAPD officer who was fired from the force for inappropriate conduct, with Malloy being one of the material witnesses of the misconduct that led to his firing, so there is lingering antagonism between the two. Later, Bowler calls in to report a suspicious package that may be a bomb in the store room. He believes this implicates Constant once again, as he is one of the few employees who has access to the restricted room. After calling in the bomb squad to determine if it really is a bomb, Malloy and Reed have to determine if Constant, or someone else, is the culprit.

This original Adam 12 Script was used during filming and meticulously curated and owned by the wonderfully great Adam 12 Producer, Tom Williams who used them daily while producing these amazing episodes on set. 

Many of the scripts have Tom's handwritten notes with changes and ad libs or "wild lines" as Tom put it.

INCREDIBLE! Just awesome that it still survives today, amazing episode!

During the formative phases of my research for the upcoming Adam 12 book, Tom and I had the opportunity to spend a significant amount of time together. This collaborative period allowed us to delve deeply into the subject matter, exchange ideas, and gather crucial insights that would later contribute to the book's content. What adds an extra layer of significance to this collaboration is that Tom graciously extended an offer that remains quite special to me.
