S2 E1

Guest in the Night

Duke and Rita visit a remote mountain cabin for a romantic getaway. During a fierce snowstorm, a young boy with pneumonia shows up at their door. Duke won't call for help because he is wanted for robbery, but Rita uses a ham radio to ask for medical help.

S2 E2

Dr. Juliet

A doctor unravels the mysterious circumstances and suspects surrounding the near-death of a young heiress.

S2 E3

Double Trouble

Granite jawed Hugh O'Brien, clearly enjoying a change of pace from his usual rugged roles, plays a shy cartoonist whose heroism is awakened by a fraud scandal involving a woman and a his exact double.

S2 E4

The Lamp

What seems to be Aladdin's Lamp also seems to be fulfilling the fondest wishes of a young couple.

S2 E5

You're Driving Me Crazy

A couple finds themselves terrorized by a disturbed man who rear ends their car. There is some genuine suspense in this episode and warrants attention in that it comes years before Alfred Hitchcock Presents and other such anthologies.

S2 E6

Beyond a Reasonable Doubt

This familiar plot of a lone holdout juror benefits from extreme unusual close-ups, montages and double-exposures to "open up" the drama beyond the single room setting.

S2 E7

For Father Darling

Clever "amateur sleuth" tale with a sharp Catholic priest who helps a family escape from a smooth con man. Very "Columbo"-like.

S2 E8

On Your Honor, Your Honor

An idealistic widow, whose last name is that same to that of a candidate, allows two slick politicians to add her name to a small town mayoral ballot.

S2 E9

The Girl Scout Story

A girl scout is left alone with an escaped convict.

S2 E10

No Help Wanted

Former stuntman and TV's "Range Rider" and "Yancy Derringer," Jock Mahoney, returns to this series, this time playing the owner of a small diner who is taken with a lost soul seemingly left alone in the rain.

S2 E11

It's a Man's Game

Pushy history teacher nags her math teacher-coach boyfriend to have more ambition and winds up coaching the football team in his place.

S2 E12

Something About Love

A dancer's resolution to go on with her life as a singer inspires an architect who had become embittered after his hands were injured in the Korean war. Sally Field's mother Margaret (wife of Loretta Young show favorite Jock Mahoney) co-stars as Gene Barry's fiancée.

S2 E13

Our Sacred Honor

Like Spielberg's "Lincoln," which celebrated the little-known people who made a difference as well as high-profile leaders, this episode focuses on one of the lesser-known signers of the Declaration of Independence, John Hart.

S2 E14

Big Jim

A young man attempts to reform his delinquent mother when she stops in town to see him.

S2 E15

Evil for Evil

An embittered man takes revenge on a beloved doctor who lost his wife on the operating table, leading to vigilantism. Among the cast is Oscar-winner Jane Darwell ("The Grapes of Wrath," "Mary Poppins"). The theme of friendly neighbors transformed into a hideous mob would be echoed in Twilight Zone episodes "The Shelter" and "The Monsters Are Due on Maple Street."

Time and Yuletide

At a hospital and nursing home, everyone wants to stage Christmas parties for the sick children, but the event coordinator connives to get a party for the elderly residents.

S2 E17

Three Minutes Too Late

A financially strapped New York cab driver becomes desperate for cash when his wife goes into labor.

S2 E18

The Girl Who Knew

Familiar TV faces abound in this fanciful dramedy about a woman's ability to know the time without a watch challenged by a watch company's efforts to use a conceited employee's charms to discredit her.

S2 E19

The Flood

A man whose experience as a prisoner of war has caused him to be alcoholic and homeless stumbles into a situation in which he must use his army medical training and receives advice and support from a nurse and a doctor to change his life.
