Plot Overview
A stranger in town creates quite a stir--after being dropped off by a woman he insulted, he visits a grocery store and robs and kills the elderly owner, then visits a nearby teen club and provokes some of the locals into riotous behavior. He's then arrested for suspicion of murder in the store owner's death. Glen is certain the woman who gave him a ride--a woman who happens to be his own wife--is the witness who can place the young man at the store at the time of the murder. Trouble is, she's an alcoholic and can hardly be considered a reliable witness.

The Show
This is the infamous episode that the FCC cited for 'excessive violence' and probably led to the show being canceled a few months later. Seen fifty years later, it's hardly a blip on the radar screen.
