What happens

George travels to the beach to confront LeVire, and shortly after arriving at the Tarbell house, a flower box nearly kills George on the balcony, leading Lydia to accuse Cliff of attempted murder.

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.
