1. What you Need First Aired: 25 December 1959

2. There is a fifth dimension. Beyond that which is known to man.

3. It is a dimension as vast as space.

4. And as timeless as infinity.

5. It is the middle ground between light and shadow...

6. between science and superstition.

7. And it lies between the pit of man's fears...

8. and the summit of his knowledge.

9. This is the dimension of imagination.

10. It is an area which we call: The Twilight Zone.

11. You ready for another? - I'm fine.

12. You been fine for an hour.

13. We sell booze here, mister. We don't just rent space.

14. Is that a fact? - That's a fact, buddy.

15. How would you like to take a flying jump at the moon?

16. All kinds. We get all kinds.

17. You're looking at Mr Fred Renard.

18. Who carries on his shoulder a chip the size of the national debt.

19. This is a sour man, a friendless man.

20. A lonely, grasping and nervous man.

21. This is a man who has lived 36 meaningless, failure-laden years.

22. And who at this moment looks for an escape, any escape.

23. Any way, anything, anybody, to get out of the rut.

24. And this little old man is just what Mr Renard is waiting for.

25. Something for you, miss?

26. I guess I need some matches.

27. You don't need matches, miss. I'll tell you what you need.

28. Yes, I know what it is you need.

29. What is it? - Very good cleaning fluid.

30. Guaranteed to remove spots of any and all kinds.

31. It's what you need.

32. That'll be 80 cents, Lefty.

33. What do you got, pop?

34. Many things. Many odds and ends. Things you need.

35. What do you think I need, pop? - Shoelaces perhaps. Or matches.

36. No, I'm afraid not, pop. They wouldn't help me.

37. No, what I need you haven't got. - Tell him what you need, Lefty.

38. The old coot comes every night telling, he's got what one needs.

39. Tell him what you really need.

40. What do you need?

41. A new left arm. - A new left arm?

42. Lefty was a couple of years quite a pitcher for the Cubs.

43. Then his arm went sour. Didn't it, Lefty?

44. I ought to know. I dropped a bundle on him on a sunday.

45. What do you do now? - He comes in here every night.

46. Looking for a baseball career at the bottom of a bottle.

47. Of course, there are alternatives. There are things instead.

48. Instead of pitching?

49. Instead of baseball?

50. Let's go back to shoelaces, pop.

51. I think I know what it is you need.

52. Go ahead, take it.

53. A bus ticket. - That's right.

54. That's what it is, a bus ticket.

55. A bus ticket to Scranton, Pennsylvania.

56. What's in Scranton, Pennsylvania, old man?

57. One never knows.

58. Coal mines, that's what's there. Nice, lovely, beautiful coal mines.

59. You can't pitch with that arm anymore. Maybe you can dig with it.

60. Telephone.

61. What? Dead rich uncle? - No, crazy, real crazy.

62. My old manager. Been looking for me for weeks. Got me a coaching job.

63. Minor league club in...

64. Scranton, Pennsylvania.

65. He wants me to take a bus there. How about that?

66. How'd you know, pop? - Coincidence maybe? Or good fortune?

67. But why question it? It's there for you. You just take it.

68. I don't get it.

69. I wish I could get that thing out.

70. I'd like to look halfway decent when I meet the general manager.

71. That's who I'm gonna meet.

72. I'd hate to look like a tramp. I can get a shave.

73. It's the only coat I got.

74. Excuse me. I couldn't help but overhear.

75. Why don't you try this? It's supposed to be very good.

76. I don't want to bother you, miss. - Oh, no, let me try.

77. When this dries, you won't even know you had a spot there.

78. Thank you, miss. I was lucky you were around.

79. Not really lucky. The old gentleman over there...

80. Something for you, sir?

81. Shoelaces, maybe? - Is that what I need?

82. That's for you to say, sir.

83. If not shoelaces, some nice matches.

84. I have several different designs. - Now, come on.

85. What do I need? - You tell me, old man.

86. One needs many different things.

87. But what do I need now?

88. What do I need tonight? - It's late.

89. What do I need?

90. Scissors? Is this some kind of gag?

91. I want you to level with me. I'll spread you all over the street.

92. They're what need. They really are.

93. Take them.

94. Gimme my Hey. Hey.

95. Hey.

96. Help.

97. What I needed.

98. Yeah, that's just what I needed.

99. What's this? Something else I need?

100. No. I've already given you everything that you needed.

101. Why do you come around here bothering me?

102. That was a nice pair of scissors I got from you tonight.

103. They saved my hide.

104. What do you got in there? Some kind of machine? Crystal ball?

105. You can see ahead, can't you? You can look into the future.

106. You poor dummy.

107. You got a million dollar talent and you dribble it away on pennies.

108. Wanna know something?

109. You got a partner now.

110. I don't need a partner. I don't need anything.

111. I'm content.

112. I have this talent, but I use it sparingly.

113. I must use it sparingly.

114. On cleaning fluid and bus tickets.

115. You got cheap taste, but not your partner.

116. Your partner don't satisfy so easy.

117. What satisfies him?

118. What satisfies him comes long and low and drives on four wheels.

119. Drapes nice and smooth around the shoulders, fits easy.

120. Comes from expensive shops. Looks uptown. Luxury, papa.

121. Now, come on, concentrate. And tell me what I need for tomorrow.

122. What's for the next day? What's for Wednesday?

123. Come on, old man, concentrate. What do I need?

124. A pen? Is this a gag or something?

125. A leaky pen. I'm supposed to need a leaky pen, is that it?

126. A pen that drips all over the...

127. Wait a minute. Hey, this is really wild.

128. Look, it dropped right alongside of a horse's name.

129. 'Staunch soldier runs in the first race tomorrow.'

130. Hey, old man, you're all right.

131. That's what I needed all right a leaky fountain pen. See you later.

132. 240 bucks.

133. Yeah, it could've been a million, two million.

134. Yeah, and it's gonna be.

135. Got it? You got tomorrow morning's paper?

136. That's what she is. - Tomorrow's races in it?

137. It usually does. - Here it is.

138. Did you ever hear of a tip? - A tip?

139. Yeah, here's a tip. Don't play with matches.

140. Jerk.

141. This could be with football games, baseball, basketball...

142. What is this?

143. Why, that old crum bum.

144. I'll fix him. I'll take it out of his lousy old hide.

145. He is a little crum bum, to try this on me.

146. Thank you.

147. Hey, partner.

148. You, whatever your name is. - Pedott, that's my name.

149. Well, Pedott, you came a cropper tonight.

150. How is that, Mr Renard? - That pen, no ink comes out.

151. I can't pick any winners.

152. You want a great deal. The things you need, you only need once.

153. Just once. That's all they're ever needed.

154. Okay. What's next, then? - Nothing is next.

155. I'd rather not sell you anything more.

156. Is that a fact?

157. I'll you something about me. I was born under a lousy zodiac.

158. I've been getting the dirty end, ever since I was four years old.

159. I feel sorry for you, I really do.

160. I don't want you to go to that kind of trouble.

161. I just want you to keep supplying me with what I need.

162. I don't care what it is, as long as I can pick winners.

163. Whatever it is, I want it to keep coming.

164. I don't want it to stop.

165. That's a pity. Because it must stop.

166. It must stop now.

167. Who? Why? Why does it have to stop?

168. Because the things you need most, I can't supply.

169. What are they? - Serenity...

170. peace of mind, humor...

171. the ability to laugh at oneself.

172. Those are the things you need most.

173. But it's beyond my power to give them to you.

174. Look, look deep.

175. Look deep and tell me what's for tomorrow.

176. You can see ahead, I know you can. Now, look deep.

177. What do you see?

178. Please, please, don't.

179. Shoes?

180. These shoes are too tight.

181. These shoes are too tight.

182. And they got leather soles. I hate leather soles, they're slippery.

183. But they're what I need, aren't they?

184. Yeah, I put 'em on, then I walk someplace.

185. I walk someplace where I find what I need.

186. What's with it, old man? What happens? I'm waiting.

187. Patience, that's another thing that you need, Mr Renard. Patience.

188. Is that what you're doing, giving me the business?

189. I can come over there and take you apart bone by bone.

190. Come on, tell me. Are these what I need?

191. I didn't say they were. But I'll tell you something...

192. They happen to be what I need.

193. Mr Renard, what I saw in your eyes at that bar...

194. was death.

195. My death. You were going to kill me.

196. So what was needed for Mr Renard...

197. was slippery shoes.

198. That's what was needed. Slippery shoes.

199. What happened? Did anybody see it?

200. Hit and run. That's what it was.

201. Could I sell you something, sir? Shoelaces, matches. Anything?

202. Are you kidding, old timer? What would I need?

203. I'll tell you what you need. This is what you need.

204. It's yours. No charge tonight.

205. Loony, that's what he is.

206. Yes. At this hour he gives me a comb. Says it's what I need.

207. Will you please hold it, folks? I'd like to take your picture.

208. Make yourself presentable. We're gonna be in the paper. The comb.

209. Thanks, folks.
