...Peppard kill the waitress? One clue is the knavery of his wife's cousin (Roddy McDowall), who schemes to take over and sell the family's china factory. Though Peppard was once a ne'er-do-well, amnesia has instantly transformed him into a decent chap who knows he is incapable of murder and irresponsible profiteering. He finds a kindred soul in his father-in-law (Herbert Marshall), a tycoon smitten with aphasia and therefore exempted from many a dull speech.
