What happens
Anthony Mason, a man whose wife Caroline has a habit of falling in love with other men, faces another romantic episode when she is away on vacation in Miami. Caroline has become enamoured with sculptor Paul Martindale, and Anthony must decide how to respond when she plans to leave with him. The story is presented as a comedy on the Screen Guild Theater, broadcast on October 8, 1945, with Mary Astor as Caroline, Brian Ahern as Anthony and Alan Jocelyn as Paul. The episode is adapted from the RKO Radio Pictures film of the same name.

Listen for: Anthony's dry, teasing exchanges with Caroline and Paul, and the scene in which he calmly arranges for Paul to be driven to the train
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.
