Detective Krovitch investigates the murder of juggler Luke Ockham in a theatre. His suspicions fall on John Fabian, a ventriloquist with a fixation on his female dummy, Riabouchinska. Riabouchinska, seemingly acting independent of Fabian's control, insists on telling Krovitch the truth, but, can Fabian handle it.
Just two episodes later we get another more well known Ray Bradberry story. This one holds more weight then the last and is really executed quite well. The story starts out with our murder then slowly progresses to a slow burn conclusion, made great by the interactions of a very young Charles Bronson who was hardly known at the time, but, holds very good weight with his performance, and the veteran Claude Rains, who puts in what maybe one of the finest acting performances from this series yet, The final is really moving and is were Rains puts forth some really powerful acting, which leads to my only real complaint with the episode. the last scene could have been really strong if they hadn't thrown in some extremely stupid zingy goody carnival style music which almost kills the mood of the whole episode. Other then that the whole multiple personalities thing is a nice change of pace for the series, and the overall episode a really great one.
