Description by OLDIES.com:

Crime reporter Scoop Conner's (George Meeker) suspicions are raised when he witnesses high society shyster Bill Burgen (Douglas Wood) promising condemned killer Dapper Dan Malloy (Tod Andrews) a reprieve from the governor after Dapper Dan threatens to name names. After Scoop helps Dan get wise, he takes a swan dive into a bottle, leaving news gal Gladys Wayne (Faye Emerson) to grab new guy Bert Bell (Van Johnson) and head to the pen to cover Dapper Dan's execution. But a lightning strike on death row saves the state the trouble, and all three reporters smell something rotten at work in the Big House.
