The Twilight Zone · Season 1, Episode 15

Narrator in “Unfinished Business”

As certain as death and taxes, we are told that the meek will definitely inherit the Earth. Perhaps, but not always. Consider if you will Mr. Arky Lochner, a well-known petty crook, sidebar six-for-five or shylock, registered coward, and owner of a yellow streak so vivid it could be slathered on a hot dog. Mr. Lochner was written out of the will when the meek were guaranteed their inheritance, and just now he's trying to avoid another kind of payoff, a soulful payoff, in that off-track betting parlor we call...the Twilight Zone.
