I'm a big fan of The Alfred Hitchcock hour but this episode was just bad. It starts out with a woman (Isabel) accusing a man of rape. He claims he is innocent but gets convicted. There is a cringe worthy scene where the man says Isabel was too unattractive to rape.
When he is released the plot starts to get really odd. Isabel actually falls in love with the man (the rapist!) and they get married. There are a couple more twists but the ending is a real disappointment. The character of Isabel is written as a pathetic. lonely woman who is so desperate for love she would actually marry her own rapst. This is one episode feminists should avoid.
