What happens
Scientist Leonard Fulton, a key figure in a secret government defense project, has been passing information to foreign agents. When fellow scientist Chauncey Gardner comes to his home to confront him about a dead colleague's letter, Fulton holds Gardner at gunpoint. Gardner is later shot in the federal building, and publisher Britt Reid, with his valet Kato and Commissioner Higgins, begins to suspect the Fultons. This episode of The Green Hornet, first broadcast on October 3, 1952, follows the investigation as Reid makes his way to the Fulton home.
A suburban home and the federal building in a city, during the early 1950s.

Listen for: The sequence in which Britt Reid, disguised as the Green Hornet, overpowers Sarah Fulton through the French windows while the others are away.
Written from the episode itself; it never gives away the ending. Every recording is remastered for the stream: cleaned of rumble, hiss and mains hum (and the old TV whine where we found it), then levelled in two passes to steady broadcast loudness, so one show is never quieter than the next.
