Throwback Tuesday takes us back to the tale of three beautiful former police officers turned private detectives working for a faceless boss known as Charlie. Murder on a bus on the way to the Sunwest Dude Rach leads the Angels and Bosley (David Doyle) undercover as separate guests at the ranch with Kelly (Jaclyn Smith) playing up the big city girl getting over failed marriage, Sabrina (Kate Jackson) playing up her knowledge of horses as a rodeo rider, and Kris (Cheryl Ladd) who quickly abandons her role as the buttoned up accountant from Iowa.
