Dial 1119 Page #6
Synopsis: A young mentally-ill killer, Gunther Wyckoff, escapes from a mental institution, murders a bus driver and, then, takes six hostages in a bar. The gun in Wyckoff's hand kills without emotion or pity, wielded by a man bare of emotion. It begins as a moral question whether an insane killer should or should not be sent to the electric chair, but goes elsewhere before it ends.

Break the tension?
Skip.

- Ready? Well, listen carefully.
Sudden lightning last night...
...blasting from the guns
of Terminal City's police...
...wrote an epitaph to Gunther Wyckoff,
the mad killer...
...who held six hostages terrified
in a bar...
...for over three-quarters of an hour.
Wyckoff, who escaped
from the state asylum had overrun...
All right, on your way. Break it up.
Party's over.
Come on, break it up, come on.
