Lloyd Nolan returns to Suspense as an unattractive man who finds a woman who will marry him. Then he balks at every attempt she makes to lead a normal life... and he is driven to murder. This broadcast was a new presentation of a George Lloyd script that was originally broadcast on Columbia Workshop 1941-11-30.

The recording is complete with some crackling in the opening minutes. In the past, the only available recording was missing the entire opening. A collector patched the opening of a different Suspense broadcast onto that recording. It was incorrect as it was of a different format and content than what Suspense was using at this time. This is a full and complete recording and has a four-second pause to network ID (“4s”).

The cast: LLOYD NOLAN (Matthew Everman, the narrator), June Havoc (Sally Mason / Taunting song / Matthew’s mother), Sandra Gould (Hazel), Joe Kearns (Signature Voice / Host of Masked Ball), Wally Maher (“Handsome” / Lefty), Jerry Hausner (Plant worker), Frank Albertson (Reporter), unknown (Teenage girl), unknown (Dog)
