Helen (Betty Field) is attracted to Harry (Walter Matthau), though you have no idea why. It isn't like he seems all that interested in this middle-aged woman...in fact although they date, he couldn't seem any more indifferent towards her. Yet, oddly, Helen is in love with Harry and seems to think they have a deeper relationship than they really do. So, when Harry's business is sinking and he needs money to keep it going, Helen offers him the $8000...and he promises to pay her back within two days. The trouble is, he soon finds out he can't pay her back like he promised. And, this is particularly problematic because some of he money she loaned Harry is actually her brother's! So what's next?
This is an interesting episode of "Alfred Hitchcock Presents" with one problem...there really is no twist or irony here...none. It felt like the lead up was great and then....nothing. A real shame as the acting was very good...the resolution, however, just leaves you flat.
