While this was playing out, I thought it was a thought provoking episode making you wonder if Carl Adams (Gary Merrill) was going to jump or not. I figured out the twist the second time Officer Barrett (Peter Mark Richman) went out on the ledge to talk to Adams, as there had to be a reason the officer's first name was never used in the story up till then. However when it's over, one has to question the credibility of the script in as much as how could Adams count on the very same officer showing up that was having an affair with his wife. Especially in New York City, with a police force of thousands, the probability was astronomical. This had one of those endings that you knew would end badly for the main character since there were dozens of witnesses to the murder of Steve Barrett. So you didn't need Hitchcock to mention it in his epilogue, something he did too many times, often with the effect of spoiling the twist.
