The story

Law student David Clark kills best friend Art Bradley in self-defense after an argument. He flees but later confesses to his father Howard, who is a lawyer. The next morning, Howard expects his son provide an explanation to Redman, the district attorney, but instead David merely asks whether he can be of any help after another man, Joe Elsner, is arrested.
