590.  Hawaii Five-0:  "By the Numbers" (12 Dec 1968)  A G.I. on leave from 'Nam gets stabbed by a numbers runner, and his buddy (The Rifleman's Johnny Crawford) gets framed for the murder of the head of the racket.
591.  The Wild Wild West:  "The Night of the Running Death" (15 Dec 1967)  Jim and Artie are searching for a disguised European assassin before he completes his contract.  Better than usual episode for this season.
592.  Danger Man:  "A Date with Doris" (29 Dec 1964)  Drake has to smuggle a wounded agent out a country (which we're suppose to think is Cuba.)  Very suspenseful.

599.  Alfred Hitchcock Presents:  "Never Again" (22 Apr 1956)  A harrowing tale of alcoholism.  Strong stuff for the '50s, and Hitch takes this one very seriously.
