Herbert Marshall, who'd previously starred in Alfred Hitchcock's theatrical features Murder and Foreign Correspondent, is here cast as Harley Condon, an esteemed judge who is saddled with a faithless wife named Gracie (Jarma Lewis). To prove to Gracie that her current lover Wallace Donaldson (Robert Horton) is unworthy of her, Judge Condon concocts a little scheme, involving a supposedly poisoned bottle of wine. Needless to say, the scheme backfires -- on both husband and lover.
