(Closing Narration)
Narrator: Now he is John, no longer Jackie. Perhaps not Brother John, brother to all men, but a least fit to walk among men who care. Because caring is part of the secret, the secret we all learn. That the heart cannot heal what the eye cannot see. Not even in the Twilight Zone. edit »
(Opening Narration)
Narrator: Ah, Jackie, Jackie. You're a small-timer, a roof-crawler, a poke pincher, a nickel-and-dime grifter with salt in your dreams and ashes in your pockets. Don't cut that wire, Jackie! Don't open that window! You won't be able to jimmy yourself out as easy as you got in. That's not the big score in there. It's the Twilight Zone. edit »
