Notes
- ^ No available source gives any of the characters names. David Carradine described it as a live telecast in which: "My part was one fairly long speech, and that was it. No standing around in the background. In and out."
- ^ The closing titles of the episode name Edward Mallory as “The Thief,” but there is no other speaking “thief” in the scene but Donnelly Rhodes and David Carradine.
- ^ The second segment, "Silent Snow, Secret Snow," based on the short story by Conrad Aiken, was narrated by Orson Welles and starred by Radames Pera.

The director, while moving the mystery plot forward with speed and elliptical precision, added layers of wit around Mr. Gould's performance. Altman favorites like David Carradine, as a talkative cellmate of Marlowe's; Henry Gibson, as the frighteningly avaricious proprietor of a rehab clinic; and Jack Riley (of the original "Bob Newhart Show") as a lounge pianist, provide piquant cameos.
