This is one of my favorite episodes because it zeroes in on two classic "Twilight Zone" themes: identity and reality. Who are we, really? And what reality do we really occupy? Watching this again (for perhaps the fourth or fifth time) I was reminded of the Pixar "Toy Story" films, where inanimate toys become living, breathing entities when humans are not observing them. It's the same as this episode! Do man-made creations become "real" when not observed, if only because they are created by people? Does the David statue in Florence become real "after hours" when nobody is observing him? Wonderful food for thought!
