Quotes
Narrator: [Closing Narration] Major Robert Gaines, a latter-day voyager just returned from an adventure. Submitted to you without any recommendation as to belief or disbelief. You can accept or reject; you pays your money and you takes your choice. But credulous or incredulous, don't bother to ask anyone for proof that it could happen. The obligation is a reverse challenge: prove that it couldn't. This happens to be... the Twilight Zone.See more »
This is a typical episode, somewhat interesting, with the men acting really stiff and trying to look smart.
The part I found interesting was the reference to JFK. I checked the date and the episode (March 1963) was released about six months before the fateful day in Dallas (Nov 1963).
I suppose the significant part about that is the lack of recognition to JFK in other episodes of the same period.
I have noticed in television shows of the era a hesitancy to talk about current politicians. Often there will be a fictitious congressman or local official, but the president is usually a vague figure, not identified.
This episode is worth watching just for the historical references.
