An engineer's misgivings about signing off on a potentially unsafe cable car turn to panic when he has a series of seemingly prophetic dreams about its collapse. Russell Horton makes the first of his many appearances on the show and quickly demonstrates why he became the go-to actor for playing earnest and principled young men. The role of Daphne isn't as well-cast (though Clarice Blackburn sounds younger than her 53(!) years in the part of a young librarian), and the script makes a few missteps. Nevertheless, a fun and somewhat offbeat entry in the series.

A tourist village high in the mountains relies on a cable car for all access in and out. When the county engineer refuses to sign the safety certificate because of concerns over the state of the mountain, he incurs the wrath of his sister and brother in law, who own one of the largest chalets in the village. In the end, he agrees to sign but is troubled by a dream in which he meets a charming woman with whom he falls in love and promptly dies as she gets on the cable car when the mountain collapses. How seriously should he take this dream?
