Bunny Blake is a Hollywood movie star who is about to fly to Rome to star in a new picture.\u00a0 She receives a box in the mail and finds that her fan club in her home town of Howardville have sent her a ring with some kind of large stone.\u00a0 But when she looks into it, she sees her sister Hildy begging her to come home.<\/p>\n

In the next scene we are in Hildy Powell\u2019s home where we also meet her son Bud.\u00a0 Suddenly Bunny shows up in her fur coat and movie star persona.\u00a0 Hildy is thrilled by the surprise visit but when Bunny sees another Howardville inhabitant in her ring begging for help and she passes out Hildy is panicked and calls the family doctor.<\/p>\n

Dr. Floyd examines Bunny and although she seems better, he tells her to rest.\u00a0 Bunny asks the doctor who is the chairman of the Founder\u2019s Day Picnic to postpone it to another day so she can visit her friends in peace.\u00a0 He tells her that she has let Hollywood go to her head and refuses.<\/p>\n

Bunny decides to go downtown with Bud to get her own prescription and while there she stops in at the High School to ask if townspeople can come to the auditorium to see a cabaret show she wants to put on that day.\u00a0 Then she goes to the radio station and invites the town to see her show instead of the picnic.\u00a0 All this seeming selfish behavior angers Hildy but she relents and decides to see Bunny perform.<\/p>\n

Now a heavy thunderstorm begins and Bunny sees visions in her ring of herself on an airliner during a storm.\u00a0 Next she walks out the door into the rainstorm and disappears.\u00a0 Hildy receives a phone call from the police and is told that an airliner has crashed on the picnic grounds.\u00a0 Luckily most people were at the high school auditorium waiting for the show.\u00a0 Then the officer tells Hildy that Bunny was a passenger on the jet liner and is dead.\u00a0 Hildy is confused because many people have seen Bunny throughout the day.\u00a0 When she looks around, she sees Bunny\u2019s ring on the floor but the ring is scorched and broken.<\/p>\n

This is a ghost story but the twist is that the ghost appears before the woman is dead.\u00a0 It\u2019s an interesting switch.\u00a0 Even though I\u2019m not particularly sympathetic to the actress character (she seems a typical Hollywood narcissist) I\u2019ll give this episode a solid B.<\/p>\n
