Synopsis by Hal Erickson

Mousy clerk Ronald Grimes (E.G. Marshall) begins receiving written predictions from a mail-order prophet named Christiani. Impulsively acting upon these predictions, Grimes discovers to his amazement that they all become true, and he ends up accumulating a great deal of wealth. Alas, the price that Grimes must pay for this streak of luck proves to be a daunting one indeed. This episode marks a reunion of sorts for E.G. Marshall and Jack Klugman, both of whom had previously co-starred in the 1957 film Twelve Angry Men.
