One way to judge a story is by how little wasted time (or few wasted words) it has. The ten-minute TWILIGHT ZONE stories measure up well on this yardstick. This one had a good idea, and reasonably good execution. (It would have been stronger if the lead character was portrayed as a little more careful. She *was* shrewd, which helped a lot.) The ending was both familiar and inconsistant, but not too much of a letdown. -- -Paul S. R.
