Perry Mason: The Case of the Bigamous Spouse (1963) Reviews

Since her husband Felton (Michael Conrad) always seems to be out of town on business, nervous Nell Grimes (Jackie Loughery) asks her best friend, door-to-door salesperson Gwynn Ellison (Pippa Scott), to temporarily move in with her--which Gwynn does, despite the fact that she hates Felton with a passion. Not long afterward, Gwynn accidentally discovers that Felton is leading a double life as "Frank Gillette", complete with a second wife!. In a rage, she concocts a scheme to bump off Felton, but someone else kills him first. In his efforts to clear Gwynn of a murder charge, Perry Mason (Raymond Burr) comes upon several other "respectable" gentlemen who are carrying on double lives as well. This episode is based on a 1961 novel by Perry Mason creator Erle Stanley Gardner. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
