TONIGHT ON MURDER, SHE WROTE, we try to solve a variation on the classic murder made behind a door, locked from the inside!
The Worst Person Ever this week comes in the form of theme park owner and total maniac "Horrible" Horatio (James Coco), who tries to strongarm Jessica (Angela Lansbury) into... writing a story for his next attraction? We don't know; it's not important. What's important is now he's dead! And we're not hurting for suspects.
There's the dreamy but unseemly engineer (Kristoffer Tabori), the gruff Swede (Gene Evans), the former showgirl widow (Christine Belford), the mousey and somewhat alarmist secretary (Kim Darby), the nebbish accountant (Richard Sanders), and the mad man's hired muscle (George DiCenzo). Surely one of them is responsible... but how?! Our useless detective is John Schuck, while Jessica's family connection, Lieutenant James Stephens, is also on the case.
Things are quickly complicated by a second murder featuring the best visual effects a dummy hurled off a balcony can accomplish. Further horrors await us with a ghoulish oversized James Coco head, mysterious cat noises, a hangman execution gone wrong kind-of-sort-of, and dreadfully inconsistent office decor.
Grab a snack and a sensible turtleneck because WE'RE OFF TO KILL THE WIZARD!
