Future TV producer Aaron Spelling appears in this episode as Bruce Marcus, a nerdish young man who walks into Police headquarters and confesses to a murder. Marcus tells Friday (Joe Friday) and Smith (Ben Alexander) that the victim was a young girl he'd met the night before, and whom he had killed after finding out she had been lying to him about her unhappy home life. The plot thickens when the "dead" girl shows up very much alive--and with an entirely different story about her relationship with the hapless Mr. Marcus. This episode is based on the Dragnet radio broadcast of March 20, 1954. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
