Title: The World's Oldest Motive Plot: Alex Marrow desires to eliminate his wife Angela to pursue a relationship with the stunning model Fiona McNiece. However, he is reluctant to seek a divorce, fearing that Angela will claim his prized stamp collection. To solve his dilemma, Alex hires a hitman named Richard Schustak to orchestrate an accident for Angela. As the plan unfolds, Alex has a change of heart and instructs Richard to abort the mission. Richard, demanding more money for the cancellation, takes the cash and disappears with Fiona, who is actually his girlfriend. In the end, Alex finds himself the unwitting victim of a scheme.
