Richard Widmark -- who could always be counted on for a playing a great smarmy character (as in The Colorblind Formula) -- portrays a young man who learns his girlfriend's father has invented a formula which grants eternal life to the one who uses it. But really, the formula is merely a MacGuffin to get the plot rolling -- really the story is about Widmark's growing interest in the formula, plot to murder the professor and then how his scheme comes undone.
This episode was hosted by Paul McGrath and starred Richard Widmark. This marks the last episode of Inner Sanctum Mystery I'll be featuring in this series which includes Lipton commercials with Mary Bennett. "Good riddance," say most listeners.
