The considerable charms of Roger Moore are put to the test in this Maverick
story. I can hardly believe that a Maverick would fall for the scheme that Dan
Tobin and Anna Lee get him involved in.
They sell him on the idea that the lovely Roxanne Berard, daughter of traveling Creole gentleman Carl Esmond has a diamond necklace of paste that they need a most discreet type to pull a switch.
But it's Beau Maverick holding the paste when it's all over and in the hands of law enforcement. Of course he comes out all right, but no Maverick should have bought this scheme in the first place.
Best thing in this episode is Sig Ruman as the diamond cutter.
