The return of the disinherited
19 October 2009
Warning: Spoilers
Kim Stanger, a young composer, just returned from Europe, where he had lived in Rome and Paris. A curios thing about this episode is that on the intro, daddy Hitchcock informs us that the main character is named Kim Stanger; then, we are often reminded that this guy is named Kim Stanger, his dad was Gregory Stanger, his brother is Perry Stanger …. Kim Stanger comes back to his native town; here, at home, he finds his brother Perry with Sue, Perry's wife and Kim's ex—girlfriend. Kim is told that his father, Greg, has died. They never went along very well; but Kim is shocked. The circumstances of Greg's death are murky. Did he die on a tennis lawn? Or did he go to a hunt? Kim Stanger becomes convinced that Greg was assassinated; Perry appears as the main beneficiary of Greg's death.

PREMONITION, with John Forsythe, Warren Stevens and Cloris Leachman, a Teleplay by Harold Swanton, was directed by Robert Stevens.
