Featured review
When his brother kills himself because his life was destroyed by Richard Stuart (Robert Culp), David Benson (John Posey) packs of his daughter Melanie (Jenny Lewis) to stay with her mother whilst he heads to Las Vegas to kill Stuart for what he did. But things don't go to plan as David can't bring himself to do it, a woman meets with him and says for the right money she can help and then Stuart ends up murdered with David's gun leading to the father's arrest. Having sneaked to Vegas Melanie knows her dad didn't do it, fortunately for her Perry Mason (Raymond Burr) happens to be in Vegas with Ken Malansky (William R. Moses) and takes on David's case, discovering that others had just as much of a motive to kill Richard Stuart.
An above average episode which finds Perry Mason help a teen girl defend her father accused of killing a blackmailing creep. Robert Culp plays the creep and is very good. Its got a good cast which includes Robert Vaughn, Ken Kercheval, Kevin Tighe, who play poker buddies of Culp - they all have a motive for the murder. It's a standard, yet enjoyable episode, mainly due to the light moments with Mason interacting with the teen, and having to deal with her while as she stays with him and Della in their suite.
