Episode Discussion

original film apparently lost and a kinescope copy is used in syndication. It is a copy of a copy, perhaps from a military distribution to troops on active duty around the world. Episode also has first (only?) lie told by Jim to Bud without confessing the lie. Shows in the 50s always (almost) followed censorship rules on morality so this situation is normally confessed or in other dramas, the 'liar' is caught in the lie and punished. Very unusual.
