STORY (Not for Publication) Police put a stakeout detail, led by Detective Paul Sheridan (Fred MacMurray) and his partner Rick McAllister (Phil Carey), on the apartment of beautiful blonde Lona McLane (Kim Novak), girl friend of a man wanted for a $200,000 bank robbery and murder. Sheridan meets and is attracted to Lona; Rick becomes fascinated by an attractive nurse (Dorothy Malone), living next door to Lona. Sheridan kills the suspect when he shows up, planning to win both Lona and the loot, but Ann, the nurse, is a witness to Sheridan’s activities. Using her as a shield, he tries to escape and is shot down by police guns. (Running Time: 88 Minutes)
