Prioritize:
A whodunit that relies on a B-plot and emphasizes it beautifully. Yet it's not at all B-grade; it's excellently crafted and shows how great the author was, and how, just like her cinematic followers, she could play with the genre. This episode also immensely entertained me, and its tangled plot disarmed me.
