Summary[]

Nick Cullhane, a former cop turned writer, sends his latest manuscript to Jessica Fletcher, who finds herself hounded by representatives of brewery heir Ogden Schmesser, since the manuscript too closely resembles his kidnapping.

Trivia[]

  • This was originally intended as the series finale, hence Harry's "well, that's all she wrote" line, and Jessica, Harry and Mort appear to glance at the camera, breaking the fourth wall in the last shot. However, Angela Lansbury decided to continue doing the show, and it ran for five more seasons.
  • This is the only episode in which Harry and Mort interact.
  • This was Jerry Orbach's final appearance as Harry McGraw.
