Reminded me of the proverb "Even the wicked get less than they deserve." No one gets a happy ending here. Crime drama, no supernatural elements.

Crime drama, and a good one. This is a standout episode.

Does paying a blackmailer ever work?

NO PLACE TO HIDE:
The CBS-RMT was one of the most depressing, disheartening stories I've ever heard in a fiction show. A man who was convicted for a murder he didn't commit escapes from prison, gets some good fortune when he's declared dead, builds a new identity and is engaged to be married to a rich girl. He's about to move up in her father's firm when one of his former prison inmates comes along and blackmails him, threatening to expose him. Long story short, his fiance stands behind him and they decide that rather than spend the rest of their lives feeding the guy money he needs to be dead. Her plan to kill him in a car accident works, but not before the bad guy kills her. Ex-con gets exposed anyway (for reasons I don't think were explained), is accused of her murder, and simply says he didn't do it, and "please make it as quickly as possible for me to join her."
