Bill enlists Ralph's help to protect a chorus girl as he transports her to testify against her drug-dealing ex-boyfriend.

Ralph's plans to spend time with in-laws are thwarted when he must retrieve a secret gunsight stolen by mercenaries.

Bill, in trouble with the FBI, asks Ralph to help him look good by finding an Italian heiress pursued by Soviet spies.

Rhonda turns to Ralph when her too-curious mother is abducted by a Soviet spy stealing a weapons manufacturer's secrets.

Bill calls on disillusioned Ralph when he learns his Korean War idol plans to finance retirement with a gem heist.
