  • An I got ONE more silver dollar.. but I'm not gonna let em get me no not gonna let them catch the midnight rider...

  • all the windows in twilight zone break so easily xD lololllll

  • This is how I imagine pretty much any trip to Las Vegas ending.

  • hahaha franklinnnnnnnnn

  • sorry fell.

  • Not suprised he jumped out the window after the talking slot machine was chasing him.

  • i get the twighlight zone part!!! he "thinks" that the machine is there calling his name and following him, but the slot machine isn't! uh...... sorry for the wasted comment.... that was kind of a dur....

  • Slot Machine: 1 Franklin:0

  • How could he have even FIT his entire savings, in change mind you, into a single slot machine? He never left it, so presumably the managers couldn't ever have a chance to empty it. Wouldn't it at least be too heavy to just tip over like that?

  • Bad ending. They should have had the coin mysteriously appear in his hand when the paramedics checked him. They shouldn't have ACTUALLY showed the machine roll his last coin out to him, it should have been implied.

  • It's funny that they gave the slot machine a little grin here.

  • The slot machine's voice sounds like Burgess Meredith.

  • Fixed odds betting terminal fever is the latest entity.

  • That's what I feel like whenever I play windows solitaire.

  • Comment removed

  • This has to be Nevada right? They are going downhill also..

  • Ah, that machine wasn't so bad. Just wanted to give him his dollar back.

  • Now the poor bastard has gone MAD!!!!lol :b

  • I've never understood the appeal of a slot machine.

    Poker or Blackjack or Craps I can understand, a game with an interactive element you can change and be skilled at...you can be a good poker player and increase your odds, count cards (and not get caught) at Blackjack, throw the dice well and know how to bet in Craps...

    At least it's skill vs. skill, and person vs. person.

    Where's the fun in battling a machine, and one you have next to zero chance at besting at that?

  • FUCKIN' FRANKLIN CAN'T KEEEP IT TOGETHER!11

  • scary episode...the voice calling Franklin's name sounds scary...its paranoid schitzophrania

  • Comment removed

  • nature devised a multitude of weaknesses, foibles, genetic predisposition, whatever you want to call it, in order to "thin the herd". whatever your poison...it's just waiting to come out!

  • i love that slot machines voice. i need one of those machines

  • that machine is a dick

  • Cop: Show's over.

    And everybody left the old man there.

    And a machine rolls up and nobody notices, and it throws a quarter at Franklin.

  • what is with these old shows and movies where glass just shatters when you touch it :P

  • the machine sounds a bit congested, instead of nickels maybe it just wanted an alka seltzer.

  • Man, some people just can't handle Vegas

  • Thats why you schut never buy windows for ikea!

  • I saw the window and I was like yup that's a window.

  • I may never go to las vegas ever again...

  • Casinos are not the same anyomore. Once the took away the coins from the Slot Machine it has never been the same. I use love to hear the sound of coins falling when you won.

  • Poor Franklin. If they'd built those window frames a little stronger he might have had a chance.

  • Have seen many people like Franklin at the casino cranking every penny they have into slot machines. 'If I stick with it long enough it has to payoff" I love this episode.

  • that machine is creepy

    

  • One of my favorite episodes. Franklin's original objection to gambling was not because he was practical, it was his emotional attitude at the time. When he won and his attitude was compromised he easily crossed over to the dark side. Or the machine really was evil. Either way this scared the b'jeezus out of me as a kid.

  • slot machines are so stupid, why would anyone gamble with one?

  • @naddogg89 They're addicting.

  • Franklin !!! Franklin !!

  • Talk about "Gambler's Luck" ; )

  • I like how he called it the one eyed monster, in other words "big brother" himself! ¤_¤

  • This would be a great episode to show gambling addicts.

  • gay

    this just shows common gambling addiction

  • The guy gave him a dollar to start, so when he loses that last dollar, they are even.

    Great episode.

  • Happy to give thousands of dollars of living money, but take one dollar of his gambling money...

  • @ExplorerDS6789 It may look like you have a better chance with diagonal lines, but it's just the illusion they want you to see. All machines are run by a computer which is precisely programmed to only pay out exactly as much as the casino wants per day. There is no luck involved whatsoever in playing a single machine all day, no matter how the rollers seem to roll. The luck is in finding the right machine at the right time.

  • Give me back my dollar, You Miserable!!! I Want My Dollarrrrrrrr!!!!

  • -- they made some real strong windows back then :"

  • If you hit the jackpot.....LEAVE AND DON'T COMEBACK LOL

  • I love how the casino employees do absolutely nothing and let the guy crack up. Sure now adays people are cautioned to gamble responsibly, and I guess this is why.

  • @ExplorerDS6789

    sorry dude, but I really dont believe that today is much better than about 40 or 50 years ago...

    Just look how many people loose entire fortunes to the cassinos!

  • @dudu1245 Now adays it seems the slot machines have a tad more advantage to them. It used to only go straight horizontally, now the lines go diagonally too. Like, if you get a BAR at the bottom of one slot, in the middle of the center one and the top of the other, you can win.

  • @ExplorerDS6789

    I didn't realize that.

    Thanks alot :)

  • @dudu1245 Good day

    That was Mr. Serlings "moral" in this teleplay.

    Gambling was DESIGNED to cause addiction in the player!

    I'm $500.00 in!! I need it back to pay to go home....I must win next pull...no the next!! ARRRGHH somebody loan me $10 please...

    It was Rod Serlings "Anti-Gambling ad".

    He could see the built in addiction factor & was warning his viewers!

  • @dudu1245 Because they don't play Take The money and Run because they go there thinking that they are gonna break the bank.

  • So how much do you think he lost?

  • fraaaaanklin

  • that FRANKLIN is creepy as hell
