Perry Mason: The Case of the Wednesday Woman (1964)
Season 7, Episode 13
8/10
Bizarre Denouement
11 June 2020
Warning: Spoilers
Perry thoroughly explained in court his deduction of how the murder actually took place. But the show ended with him taking Phillip and Katherine onto the elevator for a practical demonstration.

Then the doors open on the 9th floor and THERE STANDS MRS. REED who we had just seen confess to the murder. Were we hallucinating? Was that a TV trick to represent what Mallory would've seen as the doors opened? Was this scene intended to be shown just prior to the courtroom confession?

I was good with this episode up to that point, but this denouement just left me puzzled. I guess they had 2 minutes to fill.
