Goofs
Half an hour in, Mannix has yet another fist fight with a couple of guys. The first one turns away from the camera and the back of his blue jacket is all dusty white. Mannix then punches him and he falls onto the white dirt. This reveals that they filmed him being punched and falling down (getting his jacket dirty) before filming the beginning part of the fight scene.

Morgan Carpenter: Mannix. Yeah. Insurance business, right, huh?
Joe Mannix: Hey, that's great. How'd you know?

Morgan Carpenter: Besides, a lady named Cindy Gier called. Said I should keep an eye out for you. Pretty wild, huh?
Joe Mannix: Oh, yeah. She's great. Yeah great.
[pointing to a lady dancing behind Carpenter]
Joe Mannix: She's not bad either.

Buffalo Springfield!

At first, while watching this episode, I thought it was weird that Mannix would have a cover band playing, "Bluebird." But then I realized it really was Buffalo Springfield! They are in the background of the scene in the hippie bar, but so fun to see them. It makes this such a classic. The story is kind of run-of-the-mill a la Dragnet: hippies and sitar music, drug trips, blissed out teenagers, Mod Squad hair styles, but the music is great. It is also one of the early ones, where Joe works for Intertech. Those are fun too, even though there is no Peggy, there are a lot of scenes with old IBM punch cards running through a computer, and some old, huge printouts with the perforations--- which had to be top of the line at the time.
