| Synopsis | Selbert kidnaps Myrna, Mrs. DePool's granddaughter, and imprisons her in the basement cistern. Mrs. DePool then shoots Selbert, though not fatally, and rigs a poisoned doorbell to get Tracy. Unfortunately, Myrna's fiancé is the one who rings the bell and gets the poison. Selbert clubs Tracy when he comes to investigate and he is tossed in the cistern. Mrs. DePool and Selbert prepare to leave, but Selbert presses Mrs. DePool's hand on the poisoned doorbell, grabs a chest of cash, and flees after setting the house on fire. Selbert tries to escape by hiding in the top of a parade float, but is killed when the drivers of the float intentionally drive it under a viaduct that is too low for the float. |
