The mystery in "Murder on the Thirtieth Floor" is not a brilliant script in that it's pretty easy to figure out what happened to the murder victim. However, the way the man was murdered was so cool that it more than makes up for shortcomings in the script.
Jessica goes to see her editor and after a very amicable meeting, she later witnesses him behaving unhinged as well as berating the same manuscript he praised at the beginning of the show! Obviously, the man is losing his grip...but WHY?? Of course, Jessica gets to the bottom of all this and finds a conspiracy...one involving several murderers!
The notion of an evil psychiatrist makes for an interesting show. But despite this being pretty obvious, there are some nice twists here and there as well. One problem with the script, however, they didn't deal with was the suicide...as suicides invalidate insurance policies and this is a MAJOR plot hole. Enjoyable but flawed.
