Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Housewife Mabel McKay (Judith Evelyn) obsesses over her favorite movie star Marsha Mason, even insisting that she and Marsha look exactly alike. Fed up with her delusional behavior, Mabel's husband Henry (Robert Emhardt) tells her that she's crazy. The outraged Mabel kills Henry and tries to cover up the crime -- until she arrives at the conclusion that the best way to "become" Marsha Mason is to act upon the principle that any publicity is good publicity.
