You're traveling
through another dimension

a dimension not only
of sight and sound, but of mind

a journey into a wondrous land

whose boundaries
are that of imagination.

That's the signpost up ahead.

Your next stop,
the twilight zone.

All right, lance, move away
from the bar.

I've had all i can take of you.

Whatever you say, father.

When you were a boy,
you hated your brother...

your move, professor.

How's that?

It's your move.

Oh, yes, of course.

You are filled
with hatred, lance...

that's my piece,
you're black.

Rebellion of youth...

oh, yes, yes.

You're a man.

You're going to have
to face up to...

very good, very good job.

Green, green cool grass.

The touch, the smell
of green, cool grass.

Now, brought to you
for the first time

in green,
the new chlorophyll cigarette.

The smoke that doesn't smell
like tobacco

but smells good-
green, cool

like grass.

Yes, green is brought
to you...

what's the matter
with you, professor?

What's the matter
with all you people?

Are you hypnotized
or something?

Going out of your
blessed minds?

If you don't care
for our program, mr. Lindsay

you can request
a different channel.

What difference does that make,
what channel you got?

The new chlorophyll cigarette
can make that statement.

And it's 54, termite jones...

termite jones,
my hero...

termite jones.

He makes it, you...

the prettiest song
in the world.

Isn't that wonderful?

Just ruining it, completely
ruining a beautiful song...

♪ ho, ho, ho, you and me♪

♪ little brown jug,
how i love thee♪

♪ ho, ho, ho, you and me...♪

If you act now, you can get
your acreage in splendor flats

for the fantastically
unbelievable price

of 25 cents an acre a week.

Just look
at this land, folks.

It's flat, it's gray,
it's undeveloped, but...

it's undeveloped, but...

it will be
a veritable oasis...

a verit...

an oasis, yes.

Only green, the new green...

oh, yes, let's all roll
in the grass

the green, cool hills of grass.

25 operators just waiting
to take your call, folks.

Hey, mr. Lindsay,
what's that?

That's a radio, boy.

Yeah, what's it do?

Don't you know
what a radio is, boy?

Well, sure, but i've never seen
one like that before.

No one ever saw one quite
like that.

Because that's a very special
sort of radio.

In its day, circa 1935

its type was one of the most
elegant consoles on the market.

Now, with
its fabric-covered speakers

its peculiar yellow dial,
its serrated knobs

it looks
quaint and a little strange.

Mr. Ed lindsay is going to
find out how strange very soon

when he tunes in
to the twilight zone.

Careful of that door.
That's it.

We're going to take it up
these steps here, boy.

Well, what do you
got there, ed?

What's it look like?

A radio.

Now let's put it down here.

Put it down, boy.

I remember that.

I thought you'd thrown it out
years ago.

I never throw anything away
that's worth keeping.

Need any help, ed?

Oh, no, no, no.

I wouldn't, i wouldn't want
to disturb you, professor.

Pick it up by
the legs, boy.

That's it.
Now, careful.

Take it right. That's
it. That's it, boy.

Right up here.
That's it, boy.

Got to plug it in here.

Think it
still works?

Sure. Course it works.

They made things
to last in those days.

That's pretty wonderful,
all right.

Go buy yourself a switchblade.

And so, ladies and gentlemen

with the strains of
"getting sentimental over you"

tommy dorsey and his orchestra

bid you all
a very pleasant good night

direct from the princeton campus

in a broadcast
of the summer swing festival

and listen to that applause.

But before we sign off,
we invite you to stay tuned

for major bowes
and his famous amateur hour.

This is station wpda
in cedarburg, new jersey

returning you to...

good evening, friends.

Once again, the wheel of chance

or faith, as you please,
is about to revolve.

And as the barker standing
at the wheel of fortune

says, "around, around she goes

"and where she stops,
nobody knows."

Now, does anybody know
what will happen

when these young people...

well, what do you want?

I just thought you'd like
to know that dinner's ready.

I ain't hungry.

You know how mrs. Nielson feels about...

oh, all right,
all right, all right.

Ever since i can remember,
women have been running my life.

Now do this, do that,

come to dinner,
don't come to dinner...

frankly, mr. Lindsay, i don't
care whether you starve to death.

I just want to make sure
that it's on purpose

and not because you'd forgotten
that food is available.

I'm not that old yet.

Mr. Lindsay.

What?

You're humming
at table.

What was that, anyway?

What?

That melody, it went, um...

it's called "i'm getting
sentimental over you."

I heard it on the radio
this afternoon.

That's an old tune,
isn't it?

Yeah, tommy dorsey,
they-

playing it
direct from the...

direct?

Tommy dorsey's dead.

You don't say.

Yeah, he died
a few years ago.

What about major bowes?

Who?

Major bowes.

Never heard of him.

No, you wouldn't.

Well, he's dead, too.

I heard both major bowes
and tommy dorsey this afternoon

on the radio.

Couldn't be.

Couldn't be?

How is it a man
with such a tiny brain

could have such a big mouth?

Now, wait just a minute...

now, please,
mr. Bragg

i think what
mr. Lindsay means

or what he's
trying to say

is that a local radio station
was broadcasting recordings

of some of the old programs.

They didn't have tape back
in those days.

No, but they did have wire,
and before that, disks.

I'll tell you
what else they had-

good music,
hmm, professor?

Plays that meant something,
magic, real magic...

i doubt it.

You doubt it.

Mr. Bragg doubts it.

Mr. Bragg,
who watches television

until his brain
turns into oatmeal

and his eyes roll down his face
into his beer-

mr. Bragg, the modern man,
doubts it.

Well, i'll show you,
i'll show you.

Where's that portable radio?

Really, mr. Lindsay...

where is that portable
radio? In the kitchen.

Now, that guy's nuts,
that's all. He's nuts.

Oh, miss brown,

you can thank your lucky stars
you never married that man.

Now, mr. Bragg,
we'll show you.

We'll just prove it, right here,
right in here.

Well, it was right in here.

I'm sorry,
i can't wait.

Gunfireis on
in exactly four minutes.

Gunfire,
we can't miss that.

Ed, remember
what station it was?

The station?
No, i, i...

yes, yes, you know,
the announcer said something

about... station wpda,
that it...

what can you expect on a dinky
little radio like this, hmm?

Why don't you come up
to my room?

Listen to it on a real radio.

Come on.

Come on, professor.

Let's go up,
vinnie.

I'd like to hear
that program.

Well, it certainly
is a handsome thing.

Can't seem to get it.

Maybe they're having
transmitting trouble.

Why don't we phone
the station?

That's
a good idea.

That's an excellent idea.

Let's get hold of
information and find out...

here, ed.

Thank you, professor.

Information, would you please
give me the number of wpda?

That's a radio station.

Wpda, yes, yes.

Heard major bowes.

You remember major bowes, hmm?

"Round and round
she goes, and...

and where she stops..."

uh, uh, yes... yes.

Oh?

Oh.

Well, what'd
she say?

Oh, the operator said
according to her supervisor

that wpda had been out
of business for 13 years.

Well, maybe you had
some other state

or even another country.

This thing has shortwave,
doesn't it?

Uh, but the announcer said,
uh, cedarburg, cedarburg...

maybe it's...

it isn't listed
in the radio section.

I heard it.

I heard it, i know i did.

Professor, is it so impossible?

Impossible?

Well, that's
a dangerous sort of a word

to use nowadays, vinnie.

We take things for granted today

that we called impossible
just a few years ago.

Let's call it highly unlikely.

Then what did i hear?

I don't know, ed.

Ed...

professor...

do you really think
he heard those programs?

Well, vinnie

i believe
he thinks he did.

Now, we take you directly
to the white house

in washington, dc, for an
address by the president

of the united states,
franklin delano roosevelt.

Since my annual message to
the congress on january 4 last

i have not addressed the general
public over the air.

In the many weeks
since that time,

the congress has devoted its...

professor!
Professor!

Vinnie! Vinnie!
I've got it.

I've really got it.
Come quick. Quick.

Why bother? You won't hear
nothing but static.

Oh, professor, don't encourage
that poor man.

Yeah, but...

oh, he's gone completely
psychological.

Oh, my.

Well, i'm sorry, i've lost it.

It was tommy dorsey.

He was playing "i'm getting
sentimental over you."

It was soft and slow,
real pretty.

But i've lost it.

Why do i lose it every time
somebody else comes around?

Why, professor?

Well, you just
keep on trying, ed.

We're bound
to hear it eventually.

Sure, sure...

we're, we're bound to...

bound to hear it.

What do you want?

Oh, nothing, ed.

I just thought
we might talk.

Do you mind?

No, talk away,
just don't come too close.

I might start
climbing the walls

barking like a dog.

That's what you all think.

"Poor old ed,
he's gone ding-dong."

No, that's not
what i think.

If you'll sit down
and be quiet

i'll tell you
what i think.

Sure, i'll... i'll sit.

Right now,
ed lindsay

you're just about
the meanest, sourest

most cantankerous old man
on the face of the earth.

Thanks.

And i'm not
much better.

We've been living
like two hermits

under the same roof
for the last 20 years.

Staring at each other
every morning

day in, day out

20 long years,
wondering what went wrong.

I don't know what
you're talking about...

oh, yes, you do.

You know exactly
what i'm talking about

but you won't admit it.

We were going
to be married...

oh, for heaven's sake...

don't get
your back up.

I'm not trying
to change anything.

I'm just talking.

We met
in this boarding house in 1940.

And it was here
that you proposed.

I wanted
to set the date

but your mother was ill,
you remember

and so you
decided to wait.

And that's just
what we did.

We waited and waited

until, by the time
your mother died...

it was too late.

Vinnie, i'm not
going to listen to...

don't interrupt me.

I've got to get this thing said.

Oh, i know you don't care
anything about me now.

I'm just a silly woman
who watches television

dyes her hair, grows old.

You don't even...
like me anymore.

And i don't
blame you.

You're a bachelor
set in your ways.

You can't change what you are

and neither can i.

We had our chance
and missed it, ed.

But i'll tell you
one thing that's true

and i know it's true.

You did love me

as much as a man
ever loved a woman.

Didn't you?

Yes, vinnie.

That's true. I did, yes.

And now you love what we were

what we might
have become together.

So just about this time
every year-

it would have been
our anniversary-

you start getting unhappy.

You want to go
back to 1940

and start
all over again.

Why do you think
you keep hearing

"getting sentimental over you"
on the radio?

That was our song, ed.

And those programs-

we used to listen
to them together...

in the dark.

I'd forgotten.

When you hear
those programs

you're like
a young man again

with all of your life
ahead of you

but it isn't so, ed.

It's all over between us.

We missed our chance.

We can't go back.

You think it's all
in my mind, don't you?

You think i'm just imagining...

ed.

...that i hear the radio.

That's not true at all.

Get out of here, vinnie.

Get out of here.

And let me alone.

Just let me alone.

Well, portland, here we are
back in allen's alley.

Say, the senator's home tonight.

His hound dog is curled up
there under the porch, see it?

Somebody, i say,
somebody knocked.

Drag-on's the name,
senator drag-on...

i know, you're from dixie.

When eat i crackers in bed,
i only eat georgia crackers.

When i leave new york harbor,
i take the south ferry.

Now, wait a minute...

♪ way down upon
the swanee river.♪

I'm singing swanee song!

Well, i know
what you're singing.

Delivery boy.

How about a game
of checkers, ed?

Oh, no, no, no.

"Let's pretend" is on in
five minutes, then there's...

would you like some lemonade?

Lemonade? Nope.
No, no, no.

Say, what's that funny
looking thing, huh?

You know, when i first started
listening to radio again

i kept wondering whatever
happened to the picture tube.

The picture tube is right here.

Radio. I tell you,
radio is a world

that has to be believed
to be seen, hmm?

Where's my radio?

What happened
to my radio?

Ed, be reasonable.

Do you know
anything about it?

Ed, calm down!

Ed, i'll tell you.

Oh, you'll tell me?
I might have known.

Take away the one thing that...

well, where is it?

At the junk dealer's.

The junk dealer?

You gave my radio
to the junk dealer?!

Hey, wait a second.

What do you think
you're doing?

This is
private property.

Well, this belongs to me.

Oh, no, it don't.

We picked this
up this morning.

Now, if you want
to buy it...

well, how much, how much?

Oh, uh,
take a look at it.

That's a beautiful
piece of furniture.

How much?

Ten dollars.

It better still work,
i can tell you that.

Because if it don't,
it's going to cost you.

It's going to cost
a lot of people

if this don't still work.

Now, direct from
the aragon ballroom in chicago

tommy dorsey and his band.

Thank god.

Thank god it works.

Oh, vinnie, vinnie,
come up here, quick.

Ed, what's...?

Vinnie, tommy dorsey
from the aragon ballroom.

I know, dear, it's on
this time every thursday.

And then there's ed wynn,
and fred allen, and...

ed, what is the matter
with you?

Oh, vinnie...

vinnie, vinnie, vinnie.

Dear, dear, vinnie.

Around and around she goes

and where she stops,
nobody knows.

All ed lindsay knows

is that he desperately wanted
a second chance

and he finally got it

through a strange and wonderful
time machine called a radio

in the twilight zone.
