A excerpt from a cautionary tale written by a true visionary named Rod Serling about the possible results of becoming too complacent with a dictatorship.

Valerie: I've been thinking about what you said. I mean about what your father said. Well, I don't see why you're so concerned about him. He's dead. I mean, surely you've had other fathers. My mother's been married eleven times, and personally, I've liked the stepfathers better anyway.

Marilyn Cuberle: Valerie, please don't.

Valerie: Look, I know you've had nine fathers since the first one. Everybody marries everybody these days.

Marilyn Cuberle: Valerie, stop.

Valerie: I just don't see how anybody can stay married to the same husband for a hundred years. And besides, I've heard that your father was pretty dull.

Marilyn Cuberle: Valerie, stop it! Stop talking about my father! Can't any of you understand? I loved him. I cared about him. He was good, and he was kind, and he cared about me, not what I wore, not the way I looked, but what I thought, what I felt. And what's more important, he cared about himself and his dignity as a human being. Valerie, he didn't die in the Ganymede Incident. My father killed himself. Because when they took away his identity, he had no reason to go on living.

Valerie: [shocked] I just don't understand you, Marilyn.

Marilyn Cuberle: Valerie... Can't you feel *anything*?

Valerie: Well, of course, silly. I feel - I feel good. I always feel good. Life is pretty, life is fun. I am all, and all is one.

Marilyn Cuberle: [half-laughing, half-crying] You can't understand, can you?

Valerie: What?

Marilyn Cuberle: [sobbing] They can't understand! They can't understand! They can't understand!

Yes! Night Gallery.......early seventies. Wonder why they don't have reruns of it anywhere?
I don't know. I can remember watching in....I guess in the late 70's maybe? I remember one of them where this picture on a staircase kept changing every time the guy looked at or something like that, very creepy.
