This show is another one of my favorites. (Following my formula - interesting idea and thought provoking, not supernatural, but quite unlikely to occur. I did see sort of a twist).

I believed the character. He cheated on his wife (in his words by coercion). Every one makes mistakes, even good people. This was just a big one and he was sorry. Everyone thinks he should have come clean to her in the first place. I kind of see why he didn\'t - because when he did she almost seemed more angry that he told her and upset her when she would not have known. \"Why did you have to tell me? I never would have found out.\" She acted like it was a selfish move on his part. Telling her to make himself feel better at the expense of her feeling hurt. Maybe she felt what she didn\'t know wouldn\'t hurt her.

Also, I believe her character. I know that many households have a primary wage-earner that handles the money. This was probably more true in the 70\'s. I know my mother left it all to my father to handle and she would not notice $40 a month. (We were very traditional...she was no Gloria Steinem.)

I did find myself comparing this one to The Chinaman Button. They are both written by Henry Slesar, both morality subjects, and each had someone trying to \"inch\" the other toward committing an evil. In the Chinaman Button, he asked Walter if he cared if any of the people in the obituaries were dead...In Choice of Witnesses Bliss asked him if he would have been upset if the blackmailer was killed in a true accident, or if he would have been happy. In the Chinaman Button Walter finally caved, but in this story Bailey never could accept murder. He was about to turn the others in.

At the end, I noticed Bliss was one of the witnesses to Bailey\'s shooting. I felt this was a bit risky since he had just been cleared in the \'accident\'. I thought they would use all different witnesses to prevent any connection.<br>
