About this deal

Enid (Meadows) has two lovers, Eliot Gray (Marlowe) and Cyril Hardeen (Matheson). The two men meet, and the older and more sophisticated Cyril frames Eliot for beating Cyril up. Enid refuses to believe the truth and leaves Eliot for Cyril. Albert Birch (Harris) is excited to be reunited with his sweetheart, Edwina (Tandy) after 20 years. Although the reunion is joyful, Edwina has mood swings and refuses to let anyone see her baby nephew, Toby, whom she has brought with her. Eventually it is revealed that Edwina has escaped from a mental asylum, and that Toby is a cat. Supporting Cast: Charles Meredith as Judge, Paul Bradley as Defense Attorney, Tom Begley as Prison Guard Marvin Foley is trying to arrange a burial for his late partner. He approaches a mortician, Amos Duff, and asks for advice. Since Amos's business is in need of money, he recommends the costly Class A service. Marvin, however, rejects the idea preferring a cremation without the Class A treatment. Later Amos discovers signs of foul play in the death of Marvin's partner. He approaches Marvin who agrees to buy a Class A funeral if Amos keeps his mouth shut. After the cremation, Marvin refuses to pay and tells Amos that nothing can be done since all the evidence was just destroyed. Amos, however, has kept one crucial piece of evidence: the fire-proof hunting bullet Marvin used to commit murder. Supporting Cast: Arthur Gould-Porter (credited as A.E. Gould-Porter) as Major Parslow, Danielle De Metz as Malvira, Richard Longman as Mr. Chiringirian, David Janti as Paul the Assistant, Fred Catania as Brother Damianos, Robert Richards (credited as Robert P. Richards) as Brother Constantin, Willliam Greene as Brother Theodorus

Reporter and practical joker Bradley (Salmi) pulls a prank on easily-confused morgue attendant Pop Henderson (Ates) by pretending to be a corpse and "coming alive". When Bradley is later brought to the morgue presumed dead (but only actually paralyzed), Pop refuses to believe that Bradley's moaning is real and puts him inside the freezer. New York, 1916. Meyer Fine (Falk) is a casino owner with a crippling fear of death. When he makes a mistake that threatens his business, his former partners put a hit out on him. Meyer is terrified of waiting for them to act, so he begs his loyal valet, John (Hartman) to help kill him first. Supporting cast: Robert Simon as Sergeant Halloran, Ed Kemmer as Ben Verber, Grazia Narciso as Mrs. Santini, Laiola Wendorff as Mrs. Glavetsky Ray Clements (Damon) travels to a monastery to get revenge on a crook who is taking sanctuary there. Father Vincente (Sloane) advises him to choose forgiveness, and Clements is forced to leave. Clements later kills the crook's partner in self-defense and takes sanctuary at the same monastery. He tells Father Vincente that he no longer wants revenge, but the crook has already died. Inspector Davidson (Williams) and his assistant Detective Raines investigate the murder of Count Victor Mattoni in his London flat. They find a great deal of evidence in the flat, and the investigation uncovers Mattoni's links to Lord Sorrington and American businessman Bernard K. Froy. However, both men separately confess to the murder, confusing Davidson.

A stewardess, however, tells Miles to put his suitcase in a rear storage compartment. Though the suitcase contains the money from the office, Miles reluctantly agrees.
