    • ALLUSIONS (1)

      • Episode Title: Requiem for a Heavyweight

        The title is taken from Rod Serling's celebrated television play of the same name presented on "Playhouse 90" in 1956. The original play is about a heavyweight boxer at the end of his career, while this episode marks the end of Elliot Axelrod.
