About this episode
In this episode of The Adventures of Philip Marlowe, the detective is pulled into a frantic hunt for a missing groom whose perfect life is suddenly shattered by a ghost from the past. Hours before his wedding, young doctor Ben Reynolds vanishes after recognizing a name he believed long dead—Gregory Toledo. Marlowe digs into the mystery and uncovers a trail of murder, blackmail, and a $40,000 payoff tied to a long-buried drug racket. As he follows the clues, Marlowe crosses paths with a fortune-telling femme fatale, a shady flower shop killing, and a chilling twist involving twins—one virtuous, one ruthless. The case spirals into a deadly showdown beneath an amusement pier, where Marlowe exposes the truth behind the murders and gives Reynolds a chance at redemption. A tense, twisting tale of identity, guilt, and the high cost of secrets that refuse to stay buried.
