Hubert (George Grizzard) is a pampered mama's boy who, despite his age, still lives at home with his widowed mother. However well she treats him, however, Hubert is NOT a good son...and he can't wait for her to kick the bucket. So, after she casually talks about possible taking an overdose to join her husband, he decides to help her along. Hubert has a secret girlfriend who is an actress...and he convinces her to pretend to be a medium. The plan is that during a séance, she'll pretend to be the dead husband...and he's lonely and wants her to join him. And, the plan ends up working well and she's more than eager to take her own life....and then, there's the twist!
Although I clearly saw the twist coming, despite this it is still a very good and enjoyable episode...mostly because Hubert really ends up getting his. Well written, well acted.
