Transcript

Good evening, Creeps. Tonight's mystery playhouse story is entitled Mathematics of Murder. You know, it reminds me of a conversation I had recently with a friend of mine who's a detective. He said that some of those mystery writers and their perfect crimes handed him a laugh.

He said the only reason those crimes are perfect is because the detectives in the story are such fools and he claimed that 95% of those crimes could be solved by any detective with just a little routine legwork.
