Desacrating a dead piano player's grave to get the cast of his dead rival's oversized hands, piano player Guy Rolfe finds out that the cost is not only his life, but his soul. He's able to repeat the magnificence of the dead man's most well remembered concerto, but his vanity and vengeance set him up for a great fall, just like the blackmailer he murdered.
Co-starring in this episode are Hazel Court as Rolfe's wife and Linda Watkins who shows up as a scandal seeking music journalist who wants to see Rolfe fail. Charles Aidman is an admirer of his wife's who figures out the truth. Watkins is unforgettable in a showy performance, complete with a hat that looks like lettuce. Appropriately eerie, this ends abruptly, perhaps its only real flaw.
