* CharacterDevelopment: Harris started out as a JiveTurkey character but his evolution to pompous intellectual really begins in this episode. When he and Yemana are writing up their report on the porn movie, Harris gives it a Creator/RogerEbert-style review where he criticizes the story and the acting and such. All Yemana writes on his report is "''A Man and a Woman and Another Woman'' is a dirty movie."

Episode: Season 1, Episode 5\\
Title: The Courtesans\\
Directed by: Noam Pitlik\\
Written by: Sandy Krinksi and Jerry Davis(story), Jerry David, Chris Hayward, Danny Arnold, and Sybil Adelma (teleplay)\\
Air Date: February 13, 1975\\
Previous: Graft\\
Next: Stakeout\\
Guest Starring: Nancy Dussault, Rosanna De Soto, Audrey Christie, Anne Wyndham]
"The Courtesans" is the fifth episode of the first season of ''Series/BarneyMiller''.
Wojo busts a whorehouse, and five hookers are brought into the 12th precinct for processing. Wojo, it turns out, really hates prostitution. He's extremely rude to the woman he's interviewing, a hooker named Linda, and Barney is forced to tell him to knock it off. It eventually becomes clear that Wojo is attracted to Linda.
Meanwhile, Barney's daughter Rachel wants her own apartment (despite only being 17!), and Liz brings Rachel into the squad room so the whole family can talk about it. Also, Harris and Yemana have busted a porn theater that is letting underage people in.
----
!!Tropes:
* CurseCutShort: Linda says that when she gets really mad, she either starts cursing, or throws up. She gets mad at Wojo, says "You dirty son of a--", and runs off to the restroom to barf.
* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: The second of only three appearances of Barney's daughter Linda. (The last was in 1981 episode "Rachel".)
* HypocriticalHumor: Wojo finally, awkwardly tells Linda that he'd like to see her socially. She spits back that if he wants to see her he can make an appointment and pay $50 in advance. After she leaves, Wojo, who's been ranting the whole episode about how Linda's a cheap tramp and no woman should sell herself and no man should pay for it, asks Barney if he can borrow $50 until pay day.
* LethalChef: Bernice, apparently. Fish brings in a cake. Everyone gets excited, until he tells them that Bernice baked it, which is when the other detectives beg off.
* MissKitty: Rose, the veteran hooker who owns the dancing club that's really a brothel.
* OnePhoneCall: Played straight on ''Barney Miller'' many many times. In this episode Wojo gets mad when Linda uses her one phone call to check her messages (for clients).
* ParallelPornTitles: Harris says that they caught the movie theater showing a film called ''A Man and a Woman''. Chano says "That's not a dirty movie" ([[Film/AManAndAWoman it isn't!]]), only for Harris to finish with ''...and Another Woman''.
