He and a girl are in a park and either witness a crime or find a body or something. Can’t remember exactly, and can’t remember which episode. Tried the IMDb and Google and found nothing to back this up. Hey, the reruns showed in the middle of the night. Maybe I dreamed it. But darn if I don’t remember the couple running and hearing Pacino’s early-career voice, not the deeper raspier one he’s got now.

That is how I got to see many of the episodes. The show was also filmed on the streets of New York, and featured a lot of young actors of the early 1960s including Al Pacino and Dustin Hoffman.
