- [introduction]
- Alfred Hitchcock: [Hitchcock is standing locked in a stockade] Good evening. Methinks I should never have come to the colonies.
- [opens hands briefly]
- Alfred Hitchcock: Here I am, the producer's dream, a captive audience.
- [camera moves in to a tighter shot of Hitchcock]
- Alfred Hitchcock: Unfortunately, knowing the producer, I have already seen tonight's story several times. It is called, "One for the Road." They say there are two sides to every question, but tonight's little problem has three sides. For it is that age old bit of marital geometry, the eternal triangle.
- [afterword]
- Alfred Hitchcock: [Hitchcock is free from the stockade and rubbing his wrists] It's good to be free again, which is more than Beryl Abbott is. You see, she was arrested and paid for her crime. Next time we shall be back with another story.
- [bows slightly]
- Alfred Hitchcock: Good night.
- [first lines]
- Charles Hendricks: Marsha?
- Marsha Hendricks: I'm coming, darling.
- Charles Hendricks: Where are my cigarettes?
