  Episode Quotes  
Opening Narration
Narrator: Miss Elva Keene lives alone on the outskirts of London Flats, a tiny rural community in Maine. Up until now, the pattern of Miss Keen's existence has been that of lying in her bed or sitting in her wheelchair reading books, listening to a radio, eating, napping, taking medication- and waiting for something different to happen. Miss Keene doesn't know it yet, but her period of waiting has just ended, for something different is about to happen to her, has in fact begun to happen, via two unaccountable telephone calls in the middle of a stormy night, telephone calls directed through--- the Twilight Zone.
 
Closing Narration
Narrator: According to the Bible, God created the heavens and the Earth. It is man's prerogative - and woman's, to create their own particular and private Hell. Case in point, Miss Elva Keene who in every sense made her own bed and now must lie in it, sadder but wiser, by dint of a rather painful lesson in responsibility, transmitted from the Twilight Zone.
