This Untouchables episode is based on the premise that brandy drinkers are a discerning lot and can tell the real deal from the swill that is floating around during Prohibition. Steve Cochran who owns a burlesque theater manufactures such swill and he'd like to drive the real stuff out of existence.
The best real imported brandy is from Steven Geray who on a visit to Chicago is killed by Cochran and his hoods. But Geray a titled Frenchman bequeathed his title on his wife Joanna Barnes. She may be a marquise now but back in the day she was a dancer in Cochran's burlesque house.
Robert Stack comes to her for help when her husband is killed, but Barnes is working on her own plan to get even.
Cochran is his usual silky and cruel villain. And Barnes is quite the lady scorned. This one Untouchables fans will like.
