| 1 | 1 | "The Killing Ground" | Harry Falk | Rick Husky | February 24, 1975 (1975-02-24) |
| Officers Jim Street and Robert Duran of the WCPD's Olympic Precinct, dispatched to a fake emergency call, are ambushed by a trio of cop killers; the newly-established Olympic SWAT team arrives, led by Lt. Dan "Hondo" Harrelson, but the gunmen escape, leaving Duran dead and Street devastated. The shooting is just one more casualty in a series of ambushes by the trio to avenge the death of gunman Dallas's uncle, allegedly in police custody. Street opts to attend SWAT training in the hopes of avenging Duran, and Hondo selects Street for the team alongside natural marksman Travis Joseph "T.J." McCabe. The attacks continue as the gang prepares one final ambush before fleeing the city, but SWAT catches on and moves to disrupt them; in the ensuing operation, two of the gunmen are apprehended and Street kills the last, but he realizes revenge is meaningless and can never satisfy him. As the gunmen are booked, Hondo reveals their revenge was based on a misunderstanding—Dallas's uncle had killed himself to avoid arrest—and muses on the pointlessness of killing before returning to duty with his team. Guest stars: Kenneth Tobey, Jesse Vint, Geoffrey Lewis, Annette O'Toole, and William Lucking. ||||||

As Olympic SWAT joins the citywide manhunt for the Hopper family, Hondo finds himself targeted by Joey for having apprehended him earlier, while an underground newspaper editor at odds with the WCPD turns to Hondo for help when his daughter is drawn into the Hopper family. Tracking them down to a remote farmhouse, SWAT besieges the Hopper family and uses tear gas to smoke them out, while Joey is killed when he takes the editor's daughter as a human shield.

| Frank Thomas is shot and killed by a sniper on the freeway, the third in a string of calculated yet seemingly random sniper attacks. As Olympic SWAT investigates, they learn two of the men dated the same woman, fashion model Janet Warren. Hondo devises a plan to draw out the sniper: having a SWAT officer go undercover as her new boyfriend. Street is selected for the role, and gradually falls in love with Janet, but becomes targeted by the sniper, Eric, a dressmaker working in Janet's company seeking to make her fall in love with him. When Eric kidnaps Janet, Street catches on and trails him to the coast, where SWAT battles him while Hondo scales a cliff to flank him, eventually reaching Eric and Janet in time to kill Eric before he can kill Janet in a murder–suicide. Though she is no longer under threat, Janet, shaken by the losses she endured, decides to leave the city, and visits Street and the team one last time to bid farewell. Guest stars: Ronne Troup, John Bleifer, David Sheiner, and Joanna Barnes. ||||||

Purcell, a rough commander from Riverside Precinct who is often at odds with the team. However, Hondo decides he is dissatisfied with desk work and opts to undergo a risky surgery to undo the damage.
