Throwback Tuesday takes us back to a Hardy Boys mystery from the late 70s series The Hardy Boys/Nancy Drew Mysteries. In an opening straight out of Scooby-Doo, Frank (Parker Stevenson), Joe (Shaun Cassidy), Callie (Lisa Eilbacher), and Chet (Gary Springer) drive around some dark and stormy woods in a van while discussing the mysterious legends about a local witch. On their way to visit Callie’s uncle, they find the man missing and the local sheriff (Brad Trumbull) not all that concerned even after finding the missing man’s bloody sleeve in the woods, someone breaks into the house, and an escaped puma on the loose.

As Frank (Rohan Campbell) goes down a wrong turn snooping into a town recluse who he mistakes for the man responsible for Dennis’ (Leonidas Castrounis) disappearance, Callie (Keana Lyn) makes a trip to see Gloria (Linda Thorson) who offers an opportunity to help with her scholarship problems (and what is she offering Fenton?), and Phil (Cristian Perri) helps Biff (Riley O’Donnell) look into finding her birth mother. The main takeaway for the Hardy Boys is that Frank’s extra-sight turns out to be far less reliable than he was hoping, leaving the young detectives back at square one.

The Hardy Boys - In Plain Sight television review

As Frank (Rohan Campbell) and Callie (Keana Lyn) take part in the unorthodox testing for Rosegrave Preparatory School, Joe (Alexander Elliot) and Biff (Riley O’Donnell) attempt to learn something from the piece of fabric left behind at the brick factory. Only the final test of the day is notable, both for earning the pair acceptance to the school and in what Joe stumbles upon in their search. Each of the Hardy Boys learns something important as Frank discovers a hidden door in his Gloria‘s (Linda Thorson) house during the testing with ties to the symbol his mother was investigating, and Joe discovers the fabric left behind likely came from the coat of a police officer. Frank also meets his mother’s high school sweetheart who may be able to provide some information about when his mother’s search began.
