This nice little vignette moves along fairly smoothly to the twist at the end, within a program of less than half an hour, character development is tricky, but we do discover some details and undercurrents; three big players - a newspaper magnate, a judge and a politician - are being blackmailed by a woman they'd previously dallied with (she was obviously quite busy).
The chauffeur of the newspaper man discovers her strangled when he goes to pay his employers' $2,000 monthly payment to keep her quiet - a little strange he's able to get into her apartment to see her lying dead: who opened the door?
His partner, a servant in the same house, is keen to retire to a ranch in the Rockies (aren't we all - although it might be a little too quiet for some of us and some distance from the nearest McDonalds).
The acting and staging is somewhat theatrical, but it's an entertaining piece. Don't allow it to make you cynical about judges, politicians or newspaper magnates. If anything, it should make you suspicious of chauffeurs....
