    Related in a way to the episode "Found and Lost".... hide show

    In "Found and Lost" a successful businessman gives up his fortune to reunite with his 1st love and his family. This episode is sort of the yin to the other episodes yang. In this episode a lower middle class working man who hates his job and apparently his wife has an opportunity to trade his life for what seems like a better one. This better life includes a Mercedes, beautiful beach view house, a hot wife and a 7-figure salary as a CEO. But there is a catch. Someone must want to trade their life of luxury for his life of squallier. Why would anyone want to trade a life of luxury for a life of squallier? We find out of course that some deals are too good to be true!

  • The protagonist's last name, Donner, is an in-joke reference to director Richard Donner, who directed several episodes of the original TZ series. []
  • Host: (opening narration) Martin Donnor doesn't realize it yet, but he's just been offered the deal of a lifetime. All he has to do is walk through a door and into The Twilight Zone. []
  • Host: (closing narration) Next time somebody offers you a deal too good to be true, make sure you read the fine print. Especially when that deal is brokered in The Twilight Zone. []
