November 4, 1961 [131] "The
Case of the Traveling Treasure"
Director Arthur Marks
Teleplay Robb White
Perry is all set to go deep-sea fishing
with Paul aboard the Viajero II, a fishing boat
out of San Diego owned by Perry's friend Scot Cahill. But
when Cahill's regular customer has the boat for the
weekend, Perry has to charter another boat. Later, Perry
gets a ship-to-shore phone call from Scot. The Coast
Guard, acting on a tip, boarded the Viajero II looking
for gold stolen from the Alchemy Mine. They found some
bullion-and a dead man, Karl Magovern. Later, the autopsy
reveals the stiff was killed with a fatal dose of
digitalis. Worse, the police charge Scot with the murder,
thinking he and the murdered man were partners in
stealing the gold bullion.
In order to get Scot acquitted, Perry
(who again mentions his World War II minesweeper days)
takes Burger on a sea voyage aboard a Coast Guard cutter.
