TRIVIA:
K.I.T.T.'s picks at the races: Taylor's Goose, in the 4th; Baltimore Ned and Flying Fenwick in the Daily Double and Cassie's Gold in the fourth at Pimlico. His lucky streak runs out with Foster's Folly.
Michael states he originally met Maxine Fleming on the "Grimaldi case" the previous year -- an in-joke reference to producer Gino Grimaldi (just as the aforementioned horse 'Foster's Folly' is a reference to executive producer Robert Foster).
Michael and K.I.T.T. have a mission waiting in Seattle.
Don Gordon previously appeared in the first season episode THE FINAL VERDICT, while Dave Cass appeared in NOT A DROP TO DRINK. Rene Assa guest starred as the villainous Miller in DIAMONDS AREN'T A GIRL'S BEST FRIEND the previous season.
SCRIPT TO SCREEN:
In the original William Elliott script, Maxine's horse King Jack was named Knightrider. He's a three-year-old colt with a reddish blaze on his forehead.
The first draft features a young girl named Bobbi Gabriel, who tends to Knightrider/King Jack after he bolts away from Tommy Lee and Doc Thorpe. She would unwittingly return the horse to Doc Thorpe herself, and also lead Michael to the villains.
