This episode is based on the 1936 novel of the same name by Agatha Christie. Her novel featured famous detective Hercule Poirot, but he is nowhere to be found in this adaptation. Instead, the story is told in first-person-narrative, the style that would make Suspense so unique. The narrative is supplied by Charles Laughton, who portrays a traveling salesman who suffers from blackouts. He worries that he might be the one committing the murders during his blackouts, and has no memory of them.
