This is more like it! Sidney Blackmer gets feature billing. Who? He played Teddy Roosevelt in seven movies and was later the old man in Rosemary’s Baby.
He's the husband half of an aging couple and he's struggling to find a new job. They can't pay the bills or rent (“we should’ve bought a home”) so they come up with a long term insurance fraud scheme.
Robert Emhardt (below) is the boldly suspicious insurance investigator. He's used a lot in this series and is always great.
Some nice period touches: the suits, the hats, the cigarettes, two-cent library book fines, a fox stole.
