Recommended star: one star

Key words: decency; transformation; preaching

The story told in this episode belongs to the West. It has a strong religious meaning and is not very touching. The most interesting is probably the Hitch minute at the beginning. "Thank you for letting me into your living room, but you should be decent, it's a double-sided TV now."

From a certain book, we can see that the biggest spiritual transformation that Christianity has brought to mankind is the concept of love. The love here is not the kind of male and female, but the kind of love that does not distinguish between objects, love yourself, and love others. The change in perception is miraculous.

Human wars originate from revenge and revenge. Under this cycle, the struggle is endless. Only by loving your enemy and forgiving your enemy can you solve the problem. In theory, this idea is naive and straightforward. It's hard to do, but someone does, and a miracle happens.

Learning to forgive, learn to forgive, some things can come back, some can't, whether you can get out of your mistakes if you do something wrong is also a very important proposition in life. These kinds of stories are often too didactic, and current audiences will not love it.

I haven't found the McGuffin in this episode yet, forgive me.

Alfred Hitchcock Presents quotes

  • Alfred Hitchcock - Host: [introducing commercials at the end of the show] I hope you have enjoyed our program. Seeing a murder on television can help to work off one's antagonisms. And if you haven't any antagonisms, these commercials will give you some.

  • Alfred Hitchcock - Host: [signing off] I hope you'll join us again next week, when we will present you with another story of gripping, spine-tingling suspense, and three boring commercials to take the edge off of it.
