The electrician has heard requiem music coming from the dark, apparently unoccupied penthouse. Tarrant peeks through the skylight to see a dead woman's body. The police come and force the door. The dead woman is alone in the penthouse - and all openings sealed from the inside - so where is the killer?The Episode of the "Torment IV" : Tarrant hears a story about a cursed boat, the Torment IV. This brings them to discuss the [true life] episode of the Mary Celeste, a brigantine found abandoned and adrift with no crew in 1872.

Tarrant takes the "cursed" boat out himself and discovers the cause.The Episode of the Headless Horrors : Jerry and Tarrant decide to investigate the appearance of several headless bodies, left by the roadside. They have occurred near an all-night gas station. Police set up surveillance on either side and find a body gets deposited yet no cars passing through have stopped. Not only that, but none of the bodies can be identified.The Episode of the Vanishing Harp: In this locked-room puzzle, a historic harp, kept in a glass case, vanishes from a secure library. The owner is worried, as there is an ominous historical family poem which predicts misfortune if the harp disappears three times. The harp reappears, then vanishes again. Tarrant decides to spend the night in the library to see if it happens a third time.The Episode of the Man with Three Eyes : Jerry, Valerie, and Tarrant are dining out. Suddenly there is a commotion. One of the diners, Olga Markova, is found stabbed to death. A mysterious man, Monsieur Hor, slips Tarrant a sealed envelope with a clue inside. He claims to have a third inner eye, with powerful powers of observation.The Episode of the Final Bargain: Tarrant has always had a crush on Valerie's sister, Mary.
