Dana and Tom with the help of returning guest, Christine Duncan, visit one of Alfred Hitchcock's most beloved movies for week two of Hitchcock month with Dial M for Murder starring Ray Milland, Grace Kelly, Robert Cummings, and John Williams.

Plot Summary: Tony Wendice (Ray Milland), an English retired tennis player, is married to wealthy socialite Margot (Grace Kelly), who is having a long term affair with American crime fiction writer Mark Halliday (Robert Cummings). Unbeknownst to them, Tony knows about the affair, and is planning to have Margot killed so he can inherit her fortune. Tony hires an old acquaintance Charles Swann (Anthony Dawson), and sets in motion a murder that is to happen while Tony and Mark are out giving Tony an alibi. However, the plan goes terribly wrong, and Tony returns before the police to rearrange the crime scene to frame Margot. With Chief Inspector Hubbard (John Williams) investigating, Margot is convicted and sentenced to death. Did Tony really plan the perfect crime?
