If you put aside the strangeness of this episode, the depressing aspects of a marriage under fearful consequences, you must the proceed to the box. Why is it there? I guess it's an integral part of a kind of doomsday thing that the creature in it is trying to bring about. He is a key component, I guess. Beyond that, we have a wacko set of events, beginning with a man, who, on his wedding night, looks in the box and is trapped inside of it with a lump of raw hamburger with a single eye. Now we proceed to another wedding. A couple of underage people are married by a spooky justice of-the-peace and his wheel- chair ridden wife. They are then referred for their wedding night to the house of Mrs. Kry where they are given a rented room. The room contains the wedding gifts from the former night. The old lady was the bride from that night and has been doing the Miss Havisham thing ever since. Things unfurl as the brides father, a rich man who get his way, hunt down the young couple who had run off against his wishes. It's one really odd episode that seems to lack enough information to make it work toward a reasonable conclusion.
