This was the final episode in Night Gallery's season 2 DVD, and I finally viewed it the other night to complete the entire season's run. William Windom shines as the father of a little girl named Ginny who was killed in a hit and run car accident, along with his wife. There's an interesting twist, as he's having tremendous difficulty letting go of Ginny, while working with the government on something very important for the welfare of the United States. While the government is aware of the delusional scientist/physicist, they know keeping him happy is of the utmost importance and they decide to play along with him regarding his deceased little girl, whom we never get to see, but only in a photograph. I was especially touched how Burke was sympathetic towards the man's plight and tried to ease him along, and this is where the episode took a different turn than what I expected, and this worked for me. I thought perhaps the little girl would appear only to Burke for some reason as an apparition, but she never did. It turns out the father is suicidal and he has unexpected plans for the government, who is hoping for something else than what they'll bargain for.
