Listen for: The tension between Billy's claims of innocence and his obvious attraction to Mrs. Arbuthnot; Paladin's skillful interview technique as he gathers information from multiple sides of the dispute.

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.
