Trivia
Gregory West's method of working, by using a recorder which would later be transcribed by a secretary, was how Rod Serling produced all of his scripts, although he preferred to do his dictating while lounging beside his pool.

Goofs
Gregory eliminates people by cutting the tape. But, unless the tape is spliced and continues to spool, he would not be able to create new characters on a tape that cannot turn.

Quotes

Gregory West: Rod, you shouldn't!
[Gregory interrupts Rod Serling. He walks over to his safe and pulls out a tape marked Rod Serling]
Gregory West: I mean, you shouldn't say such things as "nonsense" and "ridiculous!"
[Gregory continues as he throws the tape into the fire]
Rod Serling: Well, that's the way it goes.
[in a resigned tone as he fades away]
Narrator: [Closing Narration] Leaving Mr. Gregory West, still shy, quiet, very happy - and apparently in complete control of the Twilight Zone.
