Paula Frayne's husband Norman is a chronic worrier who pays little attention to her. When his old friend shows up and displays a keen interest in Paula, Norman becomes difficult to live with, so Paula moves out and trouble ensues.

Katharine Bard, James Best, and Steve Brodie in Alfred Hitchcock Presents (1955)

Pretty good episode but confusing ending?

Norman&#39;s a man that has a lot on his mind. His mind is pretty much his own worst enemy. He worries a lot and he&#39;s got very low self esteem. And his troubles don&#39;t get any better once somebody from his past shows up and blackmails him and worms his way into the house. I thought James Best did a great job with his role and overall I didn&#39;t have an issue with Steve Brodie and the lady playing Norman&#39;s wife. There&#39;s two tidbits I want to point out. One makes me laugh and the other confuses me. I&#39;ll start with the funny item and I&#39;m not really sure who to put the blame on for this one. Bit of backstory: Norman&#39;s character has his back against the wall and he feels like death is the only way out of this mess. He buys explosives and blows himself up in his car. Paula (Norman&#39;s wife) is on the phone when the car explodes. I don&#39;t know about y&#39;all but I think that phone would drop out of my hands and I&#39;d scream if I heard an explosion. Take notice of the length of time it takes Paula to react. The thing that confuses me is if Paula did have an affair going on with Steve Brodie&#39;s character (Al). Another character warned Norman that Al goes home to eat lunch while Paula&#39;s at home. Paula was planning on taking a trip and Norman accused her of going off with Al. Paula denies it and she sounded believable as she tells who is going on this trip. It&#39;s the ending that throws everything for a loop for me. Norman&#39;s already dead and Al&#39;s being taken back in for breaking parole. Paula asks to see Al one last time and she breaks down over Norman&#39;s death. The scene of her breaking down was a bit over the top (as if she had to go overboard crying over her dead husband that she was cheating on). So that ending is kinda confusing for me. Other than that, it was a very entertaining episode.

Death Sentence

This episode is tremendously well acted by James Best and the lady Katherine Bard as his wife. But suicide is no solution ever especially when there are beautiful ladies worth living for. The lead character should not had been written to kill himself and lose his beautiful and wonderful wife. A very tough and ultimately wrongheaded ep to get through . Women are more than worth staying alive for, fellas.
