Well done, sir. Brilliant analysis. I would agree that it's not until after reading the story and thinking about it does one start to question Ted's sanity. I was struck by the fact (and this has been pointed out numerous times) that Ted makes a point of giving her race.
Methinks I need more Ellison. It just sucks that he isn't credited enough, since he basically created many science fiction tropes (even though he might be quite an asshole in real life) . Excellent analysis. You are one intelligent man.
I loved the story when I first read it and I loved you're summary/review. Very insightful. I hope you read this and realize how grateful I am to hear another persons perspective on this.
a great analysis and plot summary.

I think there's another side of horror behind Ted's (in)sanity that isolates him from the others.
In relationship to Ellen, she could probably be just another...hm, "device" for torture?

The video game has a "happy" ending... sorta. You can avoid the "no mouth" ending.
