Our episode starts when a man Mike Ferris finds himself alone on a dirt road dressed in a U.S. Air Force flight suit, having no memory of who he is or how he got there. He finds a diner and walks in to find a jukebox playing loudly and a hot pot of coffee on the stove, but there are no other people besides himself. He accidentally knocks over and breaks a clock, upon which the jukebox stops playing. Ferris leaves the diner and walks toward a nearby town; he sees a parked truck with a driver, but both turn out to be mannequins. Like the diner, the rest of the town seems deserted, but the he seems to find evidence of someone being there recently. He grows unsettled as he wanders through the empty town, needing someone to talk to but at the same time feeling that he is being watched. In a soda shop, he notices an entire spinning rack of paperback books titled The Last Man on Earth, he grows upset and leaves. As night falls, the lights in the park turn on, leading him to a movie theater, the marquee of which is illuminated. He remembers he is an Air Force airman from the advertised film, Battle Hymn. When the film suddenly begins onscreen, he runs to the projection booth and finds nobody there, then becomes even more paranoid that he is being watched? As another reviewer on here stated Serling seemed to have a fascination with people stuck in situations they couldn't get out of or couldn't find the answers to. This is one of many and plays out really good with a nice performance by Earl Holliman who is great at slowly losing it threw out the episode. The final twist is fun and executed well, and overall we have a great start to a great series.
