Della has a run in her hose, which she notices as she picks up E.B.

The judge doesn't want any shenanigans with Emily's case.

Perry and Pete take Virgil to Perry's farm to show him George's body. Poor guy thinks he's there for a good time.

Virg is ready to run, but the guys are keeping him here. Virg is freaked out, but Perry tries to get him to be the hero that makes it right.

E.B. is giving an interview. Chattering about Justice Holmes and the disgrace of Los Angeles.

Sister Alice has epilepsy. It will be several weeks before she should return to work, but Birdy doesn't listen to the doctor. The men are all over the place, hoping to tell the ladies how to do what they do.

Baggerly is offended every time Sister Alice speaks on Emily's behalf.

They're very unhappy about Alice's proclamation that she would return the baby from the dead. They want her reined in or the spigot will be turned off.

E.B. has three mortgages on his house, and he cannot get $25k from the bank. He doesn't take it well.

Della is upset he didn't tell her the office was underwater.

A woman is getting the Forest Lawn speech when Della gets home. It seems to be a boarding house run by a woman named June.

A couple of guys are playing golf. They find a body in the sandpit.

Virgil is hungover, getting the hair of the dog when someone rolls in George's body.

E.B. is working pro bono.

He needs more to work with than what Perry and Pete have. Once he gets a better handle on it, he visits Maynard who threatens to get him for grand larceny for misappropriation of funds from his clients. Maynard has disbarment papers ready.

It's blackmail.

People are singing outside Sister Alice's window. Birdy is trying to feed her daughter. Sister Alice is certain she heard God right. She is meant to resurrect Charlie Dodson.

Maynard has Ennis and Holmes in the bathroom. Who killed Charlie Dodson? E.B. has Maynard running scared.

Perry is on the phone with his ex hoping to talk with his son, Teddy. His Christmas present to him was late. No one ever plays trucks anymore, though, and what he really wanted was a ball glove.

Fat Guy Carmichael assaults him over the penis pics.

E.B. is frantically running through boxes in his office when Della arrives. A huge fight ensues. She's the associates and does everything for him, but he can drive himself home.

Perry and Lupe are getting it on again. He's covered in bruises.

She's trying to get his house from him. Perry was born there. He and his brother shared the room they're in. It's his history, and he doesn't want to lose it even if he never even liked it that much.

Perry looks at the case he's got plastered on the wall.

The girl is Della's girlfriend. Della's taking the next day off so that E.B. can see what it's like without her.

E.B. slept at the office. He's known Perry since he was a boy because Perry's dad took him there to see what a man in a suit looked like at work.

Sister Alice is outside the house making a statement.

Someone dashes forward with a blanket for Charlie because he'll be cold when he comes back. That's all Sister Alice needed to move forward.

Sister Alice makes a proclamation that on Easter Sunday, Charlie Dodson will rise again.

The lead Elder starts screaming about blasphemy.

Perry and Pete are at the rail car thing trying to imagine who might be the fourth man.

E.B. is with Emily. He's got bad news. She lied and also dated the man who masterminded the kidnapping and killing of her son.

E.B. is crying. He is trying to let Emily down easy by accepting a reduced sentence that will be 20 years tops. Emily can't believe her ears.

He talks about the women's prison in Chino. The power of the state wants to crush her, and it's not something he can fight.

She looks at him dolefully, and he changes his tune.

He promises her he'll do what's best.

Perry and Pete are still working out the case. They are trying to find how the fourth man made his escape unseen. They wind up at the Elk's Club.

The club is sponsoring a talent show for the poor kids so people will donate.

Ennis is there. His daughter is on stage. Perry finds it hard to believe that Ennis is there, just one building over from where George was found.

E.B. wakes up and makes himself a concoction with hot tap water and sugar. Maybe it's a bird feeder. He gets dressed

He pulls a comfy chair until the kitchen and bars the door with a cloth so the gas can't escape and kills himself while watching the hummingbirds outside his window.

Perry Mason Season 1 Episode 4 Quotes

Perry: So, Virg. There's something I want to show ya.
Virgil: Is it, um, pornography?
Perry: No.
Virgil: It's just, you guys tell me all these stories about clandestine meetings, and tailing dames, and cheating wives.
Pete: I could go get some if you want, Virg.
Virgil: Pale formaldehyde, dead, putrid bodies and the monotony of existence does a number on a man's virility.

This church can no longer afford to teeter on the whims of hysterical women.
