What happens
Marty Evans and his wife Claire join the Warrens on a fishing cruise out of San Pedro, bound for the island of Catalina aboard the Pelican. Marty is short of money and resents the Warrens' wealth, and Claire has tense moments with him throughout the trip. The boat's captain, Moran, takes charge while the deckhand Ignacio helps run the engine. As the fog thickens and the engine fails, Marty becomes uneasy about what the captain and Claire are planning. Based on the Suspense series, first broadcast June 21, 1955, with Tony Barrett starring.

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.
