      Routine subject for this series.

      You have here the classical topic if you are already used to this TV show which I have already told it is a kind of poor man's ALFRED HITCHCOCK PRESENTS TV series. But maybe not so poor, only less known. Unfortunately. Watch out for BACKFIRE, Lon Chaney Jr. So, back to this very episode, you find Arthur Franz again - Franz who seemed to have subscribed to this show - and the suspense grabs you from the beginning to the end; maybe less than other stories, but far good enough to remain a pretty good stuff. What more could we ask for?
