Storm Warning

Marsha Mitchell (Ginger Rogers), a traveling dress model, stops in the town of Rock Point to see her newlywed sister, Lucy Rice (Doris Day). Within minutes of entering the town she notices unusual behavior by the townsfolk, such as dozens of people closing up shop and getting out of sight. As she walks down the almost-pitch-black main street, she hears loud noises coming from the police station. She hides and witnesses a drunken KKK mob, lynching a man whom they had just broken out of jail. The man untangles himself from their clutches and only manages to run two or three yards before getting cut down by shotgun blasts, striking him in the torso and the head. The mob, slightly apprehensive, approaches the fallen man, arguing among themselves. Marsha gets a good look at two of the men, who have removed their hoods during the violence.
