Friday (Jack Webb) and Smith (Ben Alexander) investigate when Rose Baker, a no-good, slovenly "party girl", disappears. The last person to see Rose was her sister Bernice (Irene Tedrow), who has been taking care of Rose's four children. Several other people come forth with contradictory stories, indicating that Rose was either going to return to her kids, move to another apartment, or leave the city on vacation. There is no question, however, of how Rose Baker ends up--and that's dead. This episode is based on the Dragnet radio broadcast of March 27, 1952.
