Sebastian Cabot is on the cast list here as he gets murdered after firing one of his employees at the beginning of the show but then he plays his own double & returns to the fired clerks consternation.
The plot has to do with a clerk taking exception to being fired. Then he fires a gun & kills his boss. Then he goes home very late expecting to have the police show up at his door. Instead, he awakens with a late phone call on Monday Morning asking him to come in to work. He is puzzled as it appears he hasn't killed anyone at all. Then the plot thickens as there are circumstances beyond his control.
It seems that this first season of Hitchcock has a lot of twisting plots which is good as the entertainment value of this series is definitely better than the average show from this early era of television. I have to credit the folks running this show with finding lots of good scripts & this is yet another one.
