Perry Mason: Season 1, Episode 1 - ProjectFreeTV

1 - 1: Chapter One

Los Angeles, 1931. On the heels of an unsavory investigation involving a famous comedian, Perry Mason—a PI struggling to make ends meet—and his right-hand man Pete Strickland are hired by attorney E.B. Jonathan, Perry's mentor, to solve a perplexing case: the brutal kidnapping of one-year-old Charlie Dodson, whose parents Matthew and Emily were targeted for a $100,000 ransom. After meeting with Herman Baggerly, a millionaire elder at the Dodsons' church, Perry, E.B., and E.B.'s legal secretary Della Street ponder why a family of unmistakably modest means would be extorted for such a steep price.
