The Alfred Hitchcock Hour (1962)

Episode Overview

After Ray Roscoe saves their son Tony’s life, John and Sally Mitchell invite him to stay with them. However, they soon realize he’s nothing but a womanizing mooch, leading them to regret their decision. One evening, after Roscoe crashes their car and makes advances toward a fellow camper's wife, John loses his temper and knocks him out with a punch. To John's horror, the camper examines Roscoe and pronounces him dead. The camper proposes they bury the body in the woods and move on. John reluctantly agrees, but later finds out the area is slated for highway construction. In a panic, he contacts the camper to relocate the body, only to be met with a demand for $20,000, threatening to go to the authorities if John refuses.
