Perry Mason: The Case of the Sulky Girl (1957)

Synopsis of Perry Mason: The Case of the Sulky Girl

Frances Celane (Olive Sturgess) will lose her father's $1,000,000 trust fund unless she waits eighteen months after her 25th birthday to get married. Unfortunately, Frances is already secretly wed to Rod Gleason (Brian Hutton)--and there's a baby on the way. Ultimately, Frances' uncle Edward Norton (Raymond Greenleaf), executor of her father's estate, is found murdered, and Rod is charged with the crime. In his efforts to save Rod from the gas chamber, Perry (Raymond Burr) and Paul Drake (William Hopper) scrutinize the comings and goings of the late Mr. Norton, his attorney Arthur Crinston (Robert Griffin), and his secretary Donald Graves (William Schallert). This episode is based on a 1933 novel by Perry Mason creator Erle Stanley Gardner. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
