Eugene Deckers is very entertaining as the over-the-top Harry Crocker (escape-artist extraordinaire) in this episode.
He played quite a different character as Vickers in the previous episode ('Blind Man's Bluff').
Just goes to show the great diversity and talent that these actors had back then. Nowadays, with but a few exceptions, most of the 'actors' are hired more on looks and celebrity status as opposed to their ability to actually act.
I loved this episode, not so much for the mystery (which is kinda light in this one) but more for just watching these great actors do what they do on such small stages. I'm glad that Hulu's showing these lost treasures.
