A gang of thieves has been prowling around local bars and stealing payroll checks from inebriated employees, then forging the endorsements. Searching for the outlaws, Friday (Jack Webb) and Smith (Ben Alexander) get a rather grim break when an automobile accident kills one of the suspects. Unnerved by this tragedy, the dead man's partner is suddenly willing to rat on the gang's higher-ups. This episode was originally scheduled to air on March 13, 1958. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
