Thoughts

Is this episode suspenseful? Yes, but the sound and picture quality of this episode, which I watched on YouTube, were not very good.

This episode was written by Cornell Woolrich. It is the first of six episodes of this show that he wrote.

Ray Walston has a small uncredited part in this episode.

Robert Stevens has directed a number of episodes of television that I have watched. Some of them have been really good like Alfred Hitchcock Presents (1955) 1.08 Our Cook's a Treasure and The Twilight Zone (1959) 1.05 Walking Distance. This, unfortunately, was not a really good episode.
