Okay, seriously, I have had this cold for THREE weeks now, including a horrible hacking cough for the last week. Please tell me I have not woken up with a sore throat now, PLEASE. Damn you, awesome immune system. When you fail it's like you have to fail extra hard too. :(
So. I ran out of Perry Mason and switched back to Starsky and Hutch season 4, which is the one with the bad Hutch moustache but where they went and injected about 50 times more gay just because they could. So I decided to picspam you with some images from "Targets Without A Badge".
In the last episode, Hutch nearly exploded, which led to Starsky concern and lots of face-cradling, a favourite of mine.
In the exploding process, Hutch also lost his old car, which he loved but which was loathed and despised by Starsky, mostly because it was beige and couldn't go fast. (Starsky doesn't like cars that can't go fast. And apparently only red cars can.) It was unreliable, and oh did I mention very very beige?
So in the next episode, Hutch buys himself a convertible. He doesn't seem to realise that the point of a convertible is that you don't need to drive along holding an umbrella if it rains, dear.
It's beige.
Hutch is proud of it. Starsky hates it on sight.
"You don't seriously expect me to get in that thing, like, ever, do you?"
"What's wrong with it!?"
"Mark my words, you'll regret the cruel things you said about my car when yours blows up too."
I'm not even going to mention that the reason
Starsky is wearing a suit (and Hutch is displaying even more bizarre fashion than is usual for this season) is because they also quit the police force and were thus heading to a job interview. It didn't occur to either one of them that turning up together and both expecting to get jobs in the same place might be a bit strange. Hutch tried to make them get jobs in porn. I AM NOT JOKING. But it wasn't gay porn so they turned it down.
