After a quarrel with his wife, Scott Henderson goes out for a drink and, on returning, finds three detectives at his home: his wife has been strangled with one of his ties and all the evidence points to him. He claims he spent the night with a woman from the bar, but no one saw her; to prove his innocence, he decides to search for that missing witness.
