I'm not surprised to see that most of the other reviewers made the obvious connection between this episode and "The Dummy." It's the same unlikeable dummy from the Cliff Robertson episode, only with Jackie Cooper as the pitiful loser. If Cooper also did the voice of the dummy here, it wasn't a very effective performance. The story doesn't have much substance to it. It's unclear whether the dummy is really supposed to be talking to Cooper, or it's Cooper's imagination at work. In any case, the dummy simply talks Cooper into turning to crime. There's no revelation beyond that. Jackie Cooper did the best he could with this underwhelming story. More interesting was Morgan Brittany as little brat, Susan. Here, she is credited with her real name, Suzanne Cupito. Suzanne should have kept her real name. Morgan is not a name for a pretty young girl, or pretty young woman! "Pretty" was the basic problem with her character here. She was too cute to be believable as the little brat she was playing. Suzanne also appeared in a Season One episode, Nightmare as a Child." In that episode, she was the nice little girl who appeared near the end. As for this episode, it's OK. Nothing more.
