I enjoyed this one. I really liked the character of the wife and found her manner of speaking pretty adorable (about that potato salad: "Ohhh, isn't it awful?") The cab driver was also a very sympathetic character. So, listen to it yourself to find out what is the mystery going on at the Audley Company on Oliphant Avenue!

For Want of a Nail is one of the best episodes of CBSRMT. Often, I can guess the denouement of these episodes, but this one was a complete surprise. Sam Dann did a great job of working in an intriguing plot along with a couple of subplots, while still maintaining suspense until the end.
The voice acting was masterful and the story line was plausible. I won't give any spoilers, just a high recommendation for this episode.
