T. J. Hooker (1982)

Episode Overview

During a casual baseball game hosted by the LCPD, chaos erupts when a passing man out for a stroll with his daughter is shot in what appears to be a targeted hit. The victim is revealed to be Russ Paterno, a former mobster turned informant who has been cooperating with the F.B.I. As Paterno provides crucial intelligence, the agency is determined to protect him, enlisting Hooker to ensure his safety. The attack is linked to a radical right-wing paramilitary group known as P.F.A.D.W. - "People For A Decent World," led by a fanatical leader hell-bent on eliminating anyone he blames for society's ills.
