The Alfred Hitchcock Hour : "The Paragon" (Episode 1.20) Originally broadcast February 8, 1963.

In this grim story Susan Gordon played Betty, the adoring niece of Alice Pemberton (played by Joan Fontaine). Alice's husband, John Pembreton (played by Gary Merrill), discovers a means to stop Alice from perpetually finding ways to "rub salt into the wounds" of her family members and friends. This cautionary tale should make any crass gossip think twice before "dishing dirt" and sampling old-style cocoa before bed. While Susan Gordon's appearance in this hour-long episode was relatively brief, she played the role with extreme verve and enthusiasm. Her performance is pivotal to the plot as her adoration of Alice leads to chilling and ghastly behavior.

The storyline is driven by an amusing subplot in which Chip's dad and Marcia's mom become involved in a flirtatious relationship with one another. The story is then given an extra twist as two separate theme dances are held at the junior high school -- the first at which the teens pay homage to their parents' music & fashions, and a second dance, at which the parents repay the favor by agreeing to dance to a mop-top rock band (cleverly named, "The Greefs") led by young Robbie Douglas.
