John Doe: Interstate Transportation of Stolen Property.

Original air date: 5 December 1965

$500,000 that nobody would claim, and a man who has lost his memory are Inspector Erskine´s and Agent Jim Rhodes’ only lead to a crime within a crime.

• The 1957 Ford Ranchero is in the used car lot of “Jovial Jason.” Another car on the lot was traded in by the bad guy and this provides the clue that breaks the case—the preset stations on a AM radio. The good inspector, of course, solves the case but we never find out who gets to keep the $500,000!
