I altered the line, "where they live happily ever after, with Jenny eventually growing up to become Old Ben’s queen," because I don't remember anything about her becoming the queen. Maybe it's covered in a line of dialogue and I just don't remember it. Can anybody substantiate it? Multiverse 10:58, 29 July 2006 (UTC)

In Serling's closing lines of the episode, he says that Aunt Agnes lacks the imagination to realize that the 8x10 glossy photograph is Old Ben's true form, and that she also could not imagine that her niece Jenny would grow up to eventually become Ben's queen. (This is a little bizarre, considering the original nature of their relationship, but I guess on other worlds, other standards apply.) Mherdeg 10:40, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

I just watched this episode, and is true in the closing lines Serling does say that Jenny grows up to be Ben's queen, a bit strange but it suits the mood of this fairy tale like episode.

"An honest-to-goodness queen". Serling didn't say Ben's queen, but he did say queen. --Johnny (Cuervo) 22:30, 26 November 2007 (UTC)

Something to clarify, Ben is not from Mars (as it used to say in the article); Jenny ask him if he's from Mars and Ben clearly denies it, claiming that he comes from a planet Jenny has never heard before.

It looks like a picture of a young Serling. --70.181.54.73 06:23, 25 May 2007 (UTC)

The "twin" scene where Jenny makes it impossible to separate her from the king who's disguised to look identical to her reminds me of the scene in The Parent Trap (1961 film) where the twins stop a separation in the same manner. Since this episode came out in 1962 (the year after The Parent Trap), and was copyrighted 1961, is it possible it was inspired by the film? Was it written before or after the film came out? *Dan T.* 19:37, 11 October 2007 (UTC)
