Loquacious Liar

Summary Edit

From The Perry Mason TV Show Book
Trouble breaks out when a man breaks into Lester Martin's apartment and forces Lester at gun-point to drink half a bottle of scotch and then drives him to the country. Thus begins a nightmarish journey for Lester, as he becomes involved in a kidnapping (his own), stock takeovers, and murder.

Trivia Edit

Some of the exact same music from the fight scene in the quarry can be heard in North By Northwest. The connection is probably the film's original music composer, Bernard Herrmann, who also did music for Perry Mason. Submitted by Adam Kamil, 11/26/04.

Comments Edit

Here's another title where the alliteration proves better than the relevance. None of the liars in the episode is especially loquacious! Ed Zoerner 4/27/10
