May 7, 1964 [209] "The Case of
the Drifting Dropout"
Director Arthur Marks
Teleplay Jackson Gillis
Producer Arthur Marks and Art Seid
Barry Davis, a
college-dropout-turned-drifter, has problems keeping
steady employment. Mayoral candidate/junk dealer Mort
Lynch, once a friend of Barry's uncle, feels he owes the
kid a favor and gives him a job.
Barry is still negative on meaningful
labor, however. He quits his new job but quickly gets
another, working as a reporter for a newspaper publisher
who has a grudge against Mort Lynch. But when in the
course of his reporting Barry learns that his uncle was a
crook, he grows despondent. Things get worse when someone
crushes Mort's skull with a monkey wrench, which is found
in Barry's car.
