Revealing mistake: Halfway through the show, the officers get a flat. As Malloy is getting ready to jack up the car, Reed starts using the lug nut wrench to loosen up the nuts. He repeatedly turns the wrench clockwise, which would tighten the nuts.

Question: In what season/episode did the officers show a store owner how to hang clothes with coat hangers so they are difficult to steal? They alternated the coat hangers so each one pointed in the opposite direction. The would-be thief couldn't just garb the garments and run. Thank you.
Answer: That was a Dragnet when Friday and Bill educate store owners how to avoid crime. No empty milk crates that can be tossed through a window, nightlights left on inside etc. The clothing rack was outside a store.
