James Coburn guest stars as a magazine editor(?) who wants to change the format of his magazine into a Playboy type of tabloid. As the established magazine is not traditionally this format, there is resistance by the other folks involved in ownership of the publication. This creates a group of people who are mad at Coburn, right from the start of the episode as he is trying to steamroller everybody to get the changes he wants.
Coburn gets the proxy of one co-owners wife to support a proxy fight to get the changes he is after. Then, he gets murdered, by the wife?
Mason's client gets framed by the actual murderer who kills off Coburn about halfway through the episode in the usual Mason format. Coburn hardly gets any chance to enjoy the women doing the provocative poses for the magazine. Mason, & Drake et all. have to work quite hard to find out who framed the co-owners wife.
