Rare EUF from the 1960s - The Square Peg
Thought I'd share an obscure EUF from the 1960s. This is The Square Peg, a 1964 episode of Bob Hope Presents the Chrysler Theater.
Joanna Moore plays an uncover IRS agent trying to get the goods on Stanley Adams' gangster Gonzo. She thinks she's found the evidence during a visit to his apartment when she discovers a ledger documenting all his criminal activities. But before she can exit with it, Gonzo discovers the book is missing and demands she take her clothes off until he finds it. She gets as far as removing her skirt before she can distract him and toss the ledger on the floor.
Tame by today's standard, but Moore gives some good reactions to having to undress in front of a stranger. And its a fun find considering it's been hiding for almost 60 years. I actually saw it when it first aired and it stuck with me, so it was a kick to see it recently surfaced on Youtube:
