With his clientele diminishing, Floyd goes into partnership with semi-retired barber Bill Medwin (Herb Vigran), who sweetens the deal by promising to provide an extra chair and his own retinue of customers. Before long, business is booming at Floyd and Bill's tonsorial parlor. What Floyd doesn't know is that this upsurge in activity has been brought about by the bookie joint which Bill is running in the back room. Originally shown on April 16, 1962, "The Bookie Barber" was written by Ray Allen Saffian and Harvey Bullock.
