"Raymond" presents a story with no given title about the killing of a man who created a medicine to fix people who cannot see colors properly. Though the story has no announced name, people often call it "Elixir Number Four" or "The Color Blind Formula." The tale has a shocking twist at the end that will make you angry! The AFRS program is called "Mystery Playhouse." When the story ends, Peter Lorre shows a preview of "The Whistler" episode called "Death Sees Double." This story has parts like the one listed as number 5585, but it is clearly different.
