Episode number 5 of Series “Alfred Hitchcock presents”.
Another two macabre tales hosted by the master. “The Big score”: A deceitful baby-sitter sets up her delinquent friends for a heist of her trusting employer’s money. The evening ends in murder, but who is who in this twisted nightmare? “Malice domestic”: A writer who loves his wife’s cooking is incredulous when his doctor tries to tell him that his wife is trying to kill him.
