Alfred Hitchcock Presents1955

[afterword]

Alfred Hitchcock:
And so, just like many a Hollywood movie star, Irene Rankin was immortalized in concrete. But Professor Rankin was not so fortunate. He remarried. His crime was later discovered and he paid the supreme penalty. I have asked one of the actors to come out after the show, for I want to congratulate him on a splendid performance, and I'm sure you do, too. He played the most ferocious of the rats, a characterization that was quite a departure for him. Offstage, he's entirely different, as you can see. He's a family man, never seen in the nightclubs. He's just like the fellow who lives next door to you.

Alfred Hitchcock:
Thank you. We have another story. Oh, here it is. But, um, I'm afraid there isn't time enough to present it. We'll have to do it next time. Until then, good night.
