Episode Overview
Title: Strangle Hold Plot: After reaching out to her friend Mark for assistance, wrestler Kate Murphy tragically dies in the ring. Convinced her death was no mere accident, Mark sets out to investigate her claims about wrestling promoter Marty Torrance's involvement in the mysterious vanishings of several young women. He enlists friends Lucy and Denise to go undercover as wrestlers. Under the guise of a promoter, Hardcastle has Denise, alias "White Lightning," challenge one of Marty's wrestlers, Nancy Mack. Impressed, Marty permits their training at his gym and even asks Lucy out, unaware of her true intentions. However, as Marty plots to sell Lucy to a trafficking ring, Hardcastle seeks Nancy's help, who reveals Marty's sinister plans. In a race against time, Hardcastle and McCormick locate the slavers’ meeting, and with Mark's driving skills, they arrive just in time to rescue Lucy and thwart the operation.
