During a party in a rich English castle while talking to a mystery writer, Phil claims that an intelligent man without scruples could commit the perfect crime. Later, Jennifer claims she loves him, but she is a married woman. He agrees to kill her husband so they can be together. He invites an old friend who works at Scotland Yard to a conference where the husband is speaking. When the husband dies of a fast-acting poison after drinking water from the same pitcher he has been using for hours, the inspector suspects his old friend immediately but must figure out how he did it.
