This is one of those full plate episodes. From beginning to end the viewer has to follow along in order to trace the trail of the gem and to keep everyone separated in this interesting tale.
It begins when a cad of a gentleman named Hans Breel is late on paying some money to some bookies. They give him 48 hours to come up with the scratch. The first thing he does is go to his sweetheart and advises that he will sale her diamond. But as usual he is trying to swindle her out of the money.
Next we learn that Hans is also known as Hugo Werner, a married person that has left his wife and small child. His wife, Sarah, has looked up with Perry in order to find her husband and make him pay back the money he swindled from their child's trust fund. So this guy is an all out bad guy when money is concerned.
The story then goes to the diamond that he is going to cut himself and then try to sell both parts for even more money. But the diamond shatters in front of several witnesses and he is left with small inexpensive pieces.
So when he is found dead in his apartment there is a host of suspects that are not sad about his passing. When the diamond that was supposedly shattered is found in the possession of Sarah Werner, then Perry has more work than just finding a husband. He will defend Ms Werner on charges of murder.
There are a lot of characters in this episode and at times it maybe hard to follow. But when we get to the courtroom scenes the entire story comes together. When a person confesses to the crime, Perry has doubts. And with the approval of the court and Hamilton Burger, Perry will examine one more witness to find the true murderer of Mr Breel/Werner. Good watch.
