Again, I adore Robert Horton's appearances on Alfred. I'm not sure if it's on purpose or just strokes of luck that a couple of Robert's episodes have his character living off a woman. I sometimes watch Wagon Train...especially if the episodes center on Flint (Robert's character on the series) and it kinda confuses me when Robert Horton passed away a few years ago that you didn't have media publications like TV Guide at least writing something in their magazine about him. He was a good actor and deserved the appreciation/spotlight imo.
Anyway, our episode features on three characters. Brad and Leslie aren't the best people in the world and you can see that by the plans they have for each other. Our third character is Janice.
Brad has been in a relationship with Leslie and been living off her. Brad's ready to move on. He's found a new love in Janice. But Leslie's not happy about that at all. Leslie goes into attack mode when it concerns Janice and she also goes into attack mode when it concerns how Leslie's willing to live a smaller/less expensive lifestyle so Brad's the one getting the perks out of the relationship. Janice wouldn't do that for you.
But this doesn't stop Brad. He sees only one way to get rid of somebody like Leslie and it's of course what you'd expect on this series. He kills her. But Leslie has done something that Brad's gonna end up on the hook for. Leslie has killed Janice and she's done it with Brad's knife!
Brad's really into it now. Detectives are at his place and he's completely in the dark about Janice's death. He thinks they're talking about Leslie! They clear that up and reveal they're talking about Janice. Brad's in shock by all of this as the episode ends. The ending is pretty interesting as you see just how trapped Brad is. Brad's about to confess that he was on the beach and he cuts himself off as he realizes Leslie's corpse will be at that beach. So Brad's truly gonna go down, whether it's a set up murder or the murder he truly committed.
I'd highly recommend this one as well, terrific writing and acting!
