Themed on killing a stranger, this keeps an eye on Willy Griff, 27, and his resolve to kill John Seaton so that he can marry Seaton's widow. When he realizes that Charlie Hayes has a victim in mind, there is a switch of corpses-to-be, a run-through to see if they can kill, and Willy completes his mission on Charlie's target. But Charlie's killing Seaton goes off the beam. Cool calculation here.
