Musician Joey Crown is down on his luck. An alcoholic, he can't find work because no one trusts him. Broke, he hocks his trumpet but then steps in front of truck which knocks him onto the sidewalk. He awakens in a strange world where no one can see him and he presumes that he has died. He eventually bumps into someone who can in fact see him, a fellow horn player who tells him that it's still within Joey's power to decide on life or death. Written by garykmcd

Jack Klugman plays down on his luck musician Joey Crown, who is a recovering alcoholic now going broke because he can't find a job, forcing him to sell his beloved trumpet to a pawn dealer. Despondent, Joey impulsively steps in front of a moving truck, and seems to be killed, but a mysterious man named Gabriel(played by John Anderson) offers him a second chance at life, and away from his new shadow existence, if only he sees the error of his ways, and seizes the day... Superb performances by both Klugman and Anderson boost this otherwise familiar premise, making it both poignant and believable, and result is fondly remembered by fans.
