Reba Burgess (Audrey Totter) has managed to keep her late husband's mining company alive by securing big bank loans, using a shoebox full of uncut diamonds as collateral. All this may come to an end when Carl Bascom (Jeff Corey) appears out of nowhere, claiming to have a written agreement that gives him half of the mine. Perry Mason (Raymond Burr) enters the scene when Bascom is killed with a weapon owned by Reba. This episode is topheavy with familiar character actors in the supporting cast, including Elisha Cook Jr. (The Maltese Falcon), Bruce Bennett (Treasure of the Sierra Madre), Ben Johnson (The Last Picture Show) and Roy Barcroft (who showed up in virtually every Republic serial and western ever made!) ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

Middle-aged Nellie Dubois (Jeanette Nolan) became a widow when her husband died during their vacation in Europe. Upon her return to the States, Nellie's family is shocked to find her in the company of a new spouse--a much younger Frenchman named Pierre (Michael Forrest). Convinced that Pierre is only after Nellie's money, the family hires sexy French maid Marie Claudel (Anne Farge) to seduce Pierre and prove to Nellie that he is unfaithful. By an astonishing coincidence, Marie happens to be Pierre's jilted first wife--and when he turns up dead, she is charged with murder. Can Perry Mason (Raymond Burr) solve this one without causing any further domestic strife? ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
