Paul (Richard Long) is an unhappily married man. His wife is rich and insists she won't grant him a divorce....despite him asking her again and again. She doesn't want to split her money with him....and he, naturally, wants all he can get from her. So, when a shoplifter is caught at the department store where he works, he uses this desperate woman to stage a robbery of his home. His plan is to ransack the safe and blame it all on a robber. How can this plan backfire?
This is a creepy episode and the end, well deserved. My only complaint, and it's common in many of the shows involving murder, is that Hitchcock's epilogue essentially tells us the killer was caught and punished. Since this is never seen in the show and the murder seems like a perfect murder, it's quite irritating...and probably something the network and/or sponsors demanded.
