synopsis
Elderly Oskar Hovejg (Fay Roope) walks into police headquarters to tell Friday (Jack Webb) and Smith (Ben Alexander) that he has found a box full of stolen silverware in his garage. Somewhat reluctantly, Hovejg further asserts that the items were stolen by his new son-in-law. Meanwhile, an eccentric self-proclaimed journalist named Alma Face (Amzie Strickland), who owns the silverware in question, insists that Hovejg give her the exclusive story on the "big" robbery. As it turns out, Alma is in for quite a surprise (even if the detectives aren't).
