- Jessica narrates her newest novel about a bumbling private eye and his girlfriend inadvertently solving a murder by trying to cash in on a dead relative's will.
- Jessica tells her newest book plot, in which a private investigator, who is so unsuccessful he and his girl fiend are about to be evicted, learn his missing uncle Charles Kenneth Anderson, a bum who sponged on them for a few years and then took off, has inherited a fortune from an old flame, but it can't be paid until he's declared legally dead in five more years. They decide to fake his demise by claiming a John Doe and go for one in Huckabee, Nevada. Alas, Sheriff Ed Ten Eyck is most suspicious as the same body is claimed by two other parties and murder seems a definite possibility. After painstakingly getting out of jail and rid of the competition, they get another surprise.—KGF Vissers
- Frank Albertson is a less than successful private investigator who, with his wife Sunny, tries to claim a John Doe as their long lost relative, Uncle Charlie. If they can get the man declared as their uncle, they will be able to collect an inheritance left to him. By the time they get to Nevada to claim the body, they learn that they are, in fact, the third to have claimed John Doe's remains as being their relative. The sheriff is stuck in the middle of it all. After Frank salts the accident site with some of his uncle's possessions, he is caught out and soon finds himself behind bars. Gradually, the other claimants are eliminated with Frank and Sunny triumphant - or so they think.—garykmcd
