Warning: Spoilers
This episode had one beautiful actress: Barbara. It had some cool Edsels, and Mercurys - styling from the space age; even if they were four-door models. Also, a beautiful button (either dark brown or black), tufted armchair in Doc's study. It had the normal, doomed dirtbag, who, in this case was really happy about it; a creep who knew he had something he could turn the screws with. He turned up (of course) delightfully dead.

All the other stuff was good. Della has a little more meat in her role, and a very funny last line. What I thought was cool was the fact that I thought it was gonna be the beatnik photographer; sweet trickery, as always. By the way, the beatnik photographer (Beaton) also played the beatnik writer in another Perry Mason "The Green Eyed Sister". I KNEW he looked familiar. Terrific actor; plays great dirtbags.

Also, as always, the acting was superb. It is a real pleasure to watch actors and actresses who are total professionals show us what acting is all about.
