Mabel Wagner (Alfred Hitchcock Presents)

Mabel Wagner (Bethel Leslie; 1929-1999) is the hidden villainess from Alfred Hitchcock Presents episode 6.11: "The Man With Two Faces" (air date December 13, 1960). She was the wife of William Draves, and the daughter of Alice Wagner. Mabel and William committed several acts of grand larceny for years in California, and when they were close to getting caught, the couple made their way east to move in with Alice, with William using the alias of "Leo."
Mabel's villainous reveal came after Alice, the victim of a violent purse-snatching, spotted a photo of Leo while looking through numerous mugshot books for a photo of the actual thief (whom she does not find). The episode ends with the evil Mabel being arrested by the police at the family apartment, much to Alice's shock. Alice was told that had her attacker been a woman and not man, she might very well have seen her own daughter Mabel's mugshot!
