At least actress Hillary Brooke has one decent quality, slipping stage money in replacement of actual cash into Boyer's hand after a card game. While out on the street, Boyer comes across the suicidal Marcia Henderson and arranges to pay for a hotel for her for the night and when she disappears, he believes that she may have committed suicide, especially after he learns the truth about the money that he gave to the hotel staff. But now, Boyer feels responsible for Henderson, and the jealous Brooke gains some conscience when she learns what her actions might have led to.
A decent story and a nice moral lesson are aided by the presence of some veteran character actors, among them Florence Bates, Cecil Cunningham and Percy Helton. This episode of the Four Star Playhouse has some good moments, but the main storyline is over far too soon and develops into another one that there really isn't time to deal with considering the half hour running time. Still, it's nice to see some humanity in the theater although the storyline involving Henderson has a bit too much of Eve Harrington insinuated with plot twists.
