I had that happen, one time. Couple friends of mine, who
lived in a raised ranch. One socket was intermittent. I
suggested to check the wires at the other sockets. But they
couldn't see how that could affect anything. Ultimately, the
problem turned out to be that the builder had backstabbed
instead of twist and screw the wires on. The backstab at the
next outlet along the wall was bad. So, the last outlet
wasn't getting power. The next to the last outlet was fine.
