Russell Johnson plays Pete Corrigan, who is debating the possibility of time travel at his Men's Club in Washington D.C., who leaves the club only to inexplicably find himself back in time in the year 1865, April 14 to be precise, the night that U.S. President Abraham Lincoln was assassinated by actor John Wilkes Booth. Pete tries to convince everyone that the President is in danger, but nobody listens until it is too late, though when Corrigan returns to his present, will discover that someone he hadn't anticipated did listen... While thin and contrived, this is still a marvelous episode, with a fine score, performances, and direction, giving an authentic feel for its period.
