What's interesting about Percy Granger's writing is that his work was histrionic. Episode #0778-DR. HEIDEGGER'S EXPERIMENT is a perfect example. But as for this CBSRMT episode, it's a Who-Done-It-Histrionic-Mystery. You've read the plot, now here's the rest. SPOILER ALERT: Rod Talbert the recluse (played by Ralph Bell) hypnotizes his wife Olivia (played by Roberta Maxwell) in her sleep to commit murder. Turns out, Professor Leo Hertel (played by Gordon Heath) hypnotized Rod to hypnotize Olivia to commit those crimes. Rod was the Middleman, Olivia was the killer, and the Professor was "The Dominant Personality". There was a climax, but no resolution. There were characters with idiosyncrasies, but not enough character development. Don't get me wrong; the talented acting of Roberta Maxwell, Ralph Bell, Gordon Heath, and Charles Irving were terrific, just not for this type of story. Himan Brown was the Host and his voice is suitable for episodes that are comical, eccentric, perplexing, etc. But this one should've gone to E.G. Marshall. What I enjoyed the most was sound effects of the howling wind, the dog barking, the burning fire, the automobiles screeching, and the gun shots. Also, there was the music that makes you feel like you're there in the rural woods. The cryptic melody at the 26-minute 14-second mark, the heartless tunes at the 27-minute 28-second mark, the chills at the 29-minute 25-second mark, and the iciness tune at the 41-minute 21-second mark. SPECIAL NOTE: There's a loud BEEP noise that interrupts the episode at the 18-minute 6-second mark. The story & host were adequate, but the acting & music were splendid
