After firing his wife's valued companion-helper, a tyrannical husband turns up dead. So what's going on.
There's little of the usual suspense or dark mood in this Hitch entry. Despite a couple of interesting twists, we know from the near outset who killed Raydon (Lyons), and that's the story's key event. Also the narrative is filmed in conventional high-key lighting. Perhaps the one real oddity is the same event being dramatized from several different subjective points of view. That's unusual and tricky for TV of the time. But the technique shows how personal likes and dislikes can color perceptions and conflict with those of others in meaningful ways. I suspect the producers realized they had a tame episode, so they took a chance to spice it up.
Most of the narrative is taken up with courtroom proceedings, certainly not a staple of the series. There's not much suspense here, and smacks of lesser grade Perry Mason. (And catch that last shot— I'm not sure what to make of it.) Of course, for guys, there's the eye candy of blonde Francis and brunette Roman, an interesting contrast story-wise. All in all, however, it's lesser Hitchcock.
