The Last Laurel tells the story of a crippled man, Marius Davis (Jack Cassidy), who is forced to do nothing but lay in bed all day. His lack of abililty to do anything makes him believe that his doctor (Martin E. Brooks) is having an affair with his wife (Martine Beswick). However, his abilities at night change. He is able to rise from his body and pick things up. He decides that this is the chance to kill the doctor. He gets up, and to test his strength, picks up a large trophy in his room. As he exits his room, he finds a metal bar he decides to use to kill the man. He goes into the room and immediately strikes the man in bed, but cries in horror when he sees the trophy on the floor. We turn to see Davis' now dead body as he shrieks "Oh GOD! I ENTERED THE WRONG ROOM!"
