The Inverness Cape Caper

When Bailey&Spencer fail in their mission to keep a mob lawyer turned informant from being killed, Efrem Zimbalist takes it upon himself to see the killers are brought to justice.

The only lead they have is the finger man Elisha Cook, Jr. who is a most suspicious individual.

It's Kookie, now a full fledged member of the firm who finds an old ham actor played by Jay Novello who spends most nights stewed to the gills at various Sunset Boulevard lounges. Edd Byrnes and Novello have a great scene at one of said bars. He's a key to Stu Bailey's plan.

Novello, Cook, and hit man Ted DeCorsia perform well. But Novello really gets to ham it up in a part that calls for it.
