Nice mystery away from the confines of LA
16 July 2012
Even though this episode had some good moments and was a good watch- I did not get all excited and have goo-goo eyes with all the guest cast. But I did enjoy the mystery and change-from-normal court proceedings that lead to a different touch from the regular 'Perry Mason' episode.

At the Vandenberg Air Force Base, the Morgan Missile Company is testing their new rockets. However it seems that someone is sabotaging the tests which may lead to canceling of contracts with the company.

Capt Jerry Reynolds is the Air Force officer in charge of the testing. News is that Capt Reynolds will be leaving the Air Force and getting a job at Huxley Missile Company which is the rival of Morgan's Company. When the Inspector General finds out about this move, plus the fact that he has proof that sabotage is at work, he wants to meet with officials. Before this happens the Inspector is found dead on the test range. And all the evidence points to Capt Reynolds as the murderer and the person wanting the missile test to fail.

But thank goodness that Capt Reynolds and Perry were old WW2 buddies. Perry will defend Reynolds at the court hearing as we get testimony from nearly everyone involved in the case. With some help from a cashed check, Perry will have enough pressure to take large chucks out of someone's testimony and hopefully get his client release from the On-Base Jail.

Even though there is nothing that is remarkable about this episode, it was a nice watch. A nice mystery with a change of scenery.
