What a sap?
5 April 2021
The Professor (Macdonald Carey) is a real sap. He is driving cross country and comes upon a lady who bums a ride off of him. Soon, she tells the Professor to stop, as she sees her father by the side of the road (Edgar Buchanan). Without really even asking, he gets in the car. Soon the Professor finds that the father, in particular, is a real thief....and you wonder how long this will continue until the Professor either tosses them out OR the pair kill him and take the car! They are truly awful....and you wonder where is this going next. And, since it's "Alfred Hitchcock Presents", what happens next could be almost anything!

I have to say, this episode really had me guessing. I had no idea WHAT was going to happen next...but it certainly turned out to be very funny. I appreciate this, as the episode truly is most original and silly...and quite enjoyable. Well worth your time...and quite a few laughs at the end.
