Here is another one of those, protagonist gets into a heated argument with their (spouse, lover, boss, school chum) and is overheard shouting "I'll kill you", in a fit of anger. Then in the middle of the night the police come to the door to arrest them because the person is actually murdered. The protagonist then with difficulty convinces the police Sargent to allow her to set up the real killer by tricking them into having to kill the protagonist as well to keep her quiet, and out from behind the curtain jumps the police, STOP we have you covered! I should have kept count of how many there were. This however wasn't one of the better ones. The climax was pretty lame.

>"protagonist gets into a heated argument with their (spouse, lover, boss, school chum) and is overheard shouting "I'll kill you", in a fit of anger..." If memory serves, that was also a plot device in the 1950's classic, "Twelve Angry Men," written by Reginald Rose and also produced by CBS. I'm curious now whether RMT ever did an adaptation of that story.

A Good simple thriller-whodunit story. I would have liked a bit more substance in the conclusion. Good voice acting with easy to distinguish characters.
