The Twilight Zone Episode: "Back There"

This episode of the Twilight Zone was a very interesting one and seemed to support the same idea of time travel I have noticed in all of the selections. The idea is that changing one little thing in time can make a big difference. At the beginning, there is a man sitting in a room with a bunch of other friends at a table. When he gets up to leave, he runs into a man working there whose name is William. The man, whose name is Corrigan, then realizes that he has the ability of time travel when he finds himself in a year way before his own time. He realizes this when he goes to his house and finds a group of people whom he does not know, living there.They mention that they are leaving to go see a play, he recognizes as the one seen on the day of Abraham Lincoln's assasination. He rushes to Ford Theatre to warn everyone, and ends up getting arrested after everyone but one policeman belives him. John Wilkes Booth then comes to the rescue and releases him out of jail. He poses as a Mr. Wellington, takes the main guy, and drugs him to prevent him from telling anyone and ruin Booth's plan. At some point during this, Booth gives Corrigan (the main guy) a handkerchief with the initials J.W.B on it. When Corrigan comes back to normal, he realizes that he is too late and returns back to the future. When he gets there, does'nt find the same man, William, there working. When he gets to the table he apparentally was just at, he notices a different man sitting there. The man tells him that his name is William and Corrigan finds out that he is rich. Corrigan asks how, and William tells him that his great-grandfather, a policeman, became rich by being the one trying to stop the assasination and somehow knowing it was going to happen. Corrigan then looks down and finds the handkerchief with Booth's intials on it that was taken from the past. This episode shows that doing one little thing, in this case telling somebody something you know, can change the future lives of others. In this situation, it was a good change, like going from rich to poor, but who knows what it could be like in other situations.
