Charlie uses the Angels plus his own priceless collection of jade as bait to trip up an acrobatic jewel thief and a killer in “THE JADE TRAP.” Gigolo Denny Railsback murders wealthy Julie Redmond when she becomes disenchanted. As Denny is doing away with Julie in the living room, cat burglar Ted Machlin is in the bedroom stealing jewels. When Denny spots Ted, he makes it appear that the jewel thief is the murderer. The setting is a posh residential hotel into which Kelly checks as a lonely heiress, Kris as a Swedish movie star and Bosley as a flamboyant auctioneer. Sabrina does her sleuthing as a hotel employee. Kate Jackson, Jaclyn Smith and Cheryl Ladd star as the Angels, Sabrina Duncan, Kelly Garrett and Kris Munroe, respectively, who work for Charlie; an unseen and very sophisticated boss who phones in their instructions. David-Doyle stars as Bosley, Charlie’s harried assistant.
