The extortionist is demanding money to set the matter right. Matt discovers that the baby had not been legally adopted when the Grahams went outside regular channels to adopt the baby. With the help of Sergeant Johnny Russo (Mark Goddard) Matt learns that the baby's birth mother is teenager Ann Martin (Jena Engstrom). Ann lives her grandmother (Anne Seymour), a woman who runs a business empire left her by her late husband. Mrs. Martin was in Europe when Ann became pregnant and does not know about the child. Now that she does, she demands that Ann be given custody of the baby.
