Latest / Yours Truly, Johnny Dollar — John Lund Era (1952–1954)
The Blackmail Matter
Aired: May 5th, 1953. A day at Dale Martin's downtown gym turns deadly when club regular Frederick Royal is found with a broken neck in the rubdown room. Johnny Dollar teams up with Lieutenant Nathan to sort truth from denial among a gallery of muscle-bound suspects — a songwriter, a car salesman, a jeweler, and Martin's own staff of trainers — all of whom had a shot at getting close enough to do the job. As the itemized expenses stack up, so do the motives, hinting at a blackmail scheme lurking behind the barbells.
