In "Outside the Ritz Hotel," Toody and Muldoon are on duty outside the Ritz, guarding the peace for a Maharaja with 100 wives—until a fender bender strands them without backup. With the city’s most notorious thief, Slippery Fingers, sneaking around to bury stolen diamonds near a sandlot baseball game, Toody finds himself umpiring the game while trying to stay off the clock. The story’s charm lies in the chaos of misdirected duty and the quiet heroics of a cop who’s just trying to do right—without breaking the rules.
