Perry Mason: The Case of the Careless Kidnapper (1964)
worth the ending
This truly is a poorly plotted episode as described in other reviews; however the payoff is the last exchange between Perry and Della.
In the last scene, Perry and Della have arrived at the client's home in the evening. Della asks Perry if they are going to go into the party they are watching through a window, and Perry asks her about the last time she stayed out "all night drinking champagne".
Despite Della's somewhat turgid and melodramatic response regarding how long it's been, it is one of the most clearly romantic (rather than one of Della's vaguely flirtatious) exchanges between them in the entire series.
After Perry invites Della to continue into the party to experience a night of fun, Della replies "you're the boss".
It is truly a rare glimpse into their relationship which has been the subject of endless conjecture.
