- Quotes
[introduction]
Alfred Hitchcock: [sitting on a giant scale as two foreign gentlemen in turbans fill the other scale with bags of money to weigh him] Good evening and welcome to "Alfred Hitchcock Presents."
[gets off the scale and thanks the men who salute him by touching their hands to their foreheads]
Alfred Hitchcock: Thank you. See you next year.
[to the audience]
Alfred Hitchcock: We thought you'd like to see this. So many of you have expressed an interest in knowing how I was paid. Now I can afford to go back to my diet. Tonight's play is about a body. Not mine. However, the title is "John Brown's Body."

Traditional
This is an okay episode of "Alfred Hitchcock Presents". The ending is good...but could have been a bit better. Not bad at all...just that the ending seemed a bit too ordinary.
By the way, I noticed that the reviewer Hitchcoc (interesting name) thought that the modern furniture Hugh preferred was really ugly...and I'm inclined to agree.
