Cold Fire: A Mother's Betrayal
Description
Originally Aired: February 3, 1957
In Gunsmoke #252, “Cold Fire,” Marshal Matt Dillon investigates a baffling case of embezzlement and death when $20,000 in gold vanishes from the Dodge City bank vault. All clues point to Marvin Gross, a mild-mannered teller living under the strict eye of his mother. When Marvin dies resisting arrest, it seems like a tragic open-and-shut case—until a last-minute realization sends Dillon racing to the train depot, uncovering a truth more chilling than the crime itself. A poignant and haunting tale of manipulation, guilt, and maternal obsession.
Cast: William Conrad, Parley Baer, Georgia Ellis, Howard McNear
