ALFRED HITCHCOCK PRESENTS: WET SATURDAY (TV)

Summary

One in this dramatic anthology series hosted by Alfred Hitchcock. In this drama, Mr. Princey, the head of an aristocratic British family, concocts a scheme to cover-up a murder his daughter, Millicent, has committed. He decides to frame a family friend, Captain Smollet, who has overheard talk of the crime. It seems, however, that the motivation behind Mr. Princey's scheme is the preservation of his standing in the community rather than his daughter's protection. Commercials deleted.
