* DisproportionateRetribution: The best part is Caswell's impassioned speech about ethics to the reckless Professor Marion, who has threatened Caswell with going back in time and accept the justice sentenced upon him. Johnson is ironically described as the victim after all intent and purposes putting Caswell out of his misery in cold blood. But by the end of the day, or night, the death penalty was not justice. Justice is predictable and what the necktie party saw was not what they expected.

* DisproportionateRetribution: The best part is Caswell's impassioned speech about ethics to the reckless Professor Marion who has threatened Caswell with going back in time and accept the justice sentenced upon him. I also like how Johnson is ironically described as the victim after all intent and purposes putting Caswell out of his misery in cold blood. But by the end of the day, or night, the death penalty was not justice. Justice is predictable and what the necktie party saw was not what they expected.

->'''Creator/RodSerling''': Commonplace—if somewhat grim—unsocial event known as a necktie party, the guest of dishonor: a cowboy named Joe Caswell, just a moment away from a rope, a short dance several feet off the ground, and then the dark eternity of all evil men. Mr. Joe Caswell, who, when the good Lord passed out a conscience, a heart, a feeling for fellow men, must have been out for a beer and missed out. Mr. Joe Caswell, in the last, quiet moment of a violent life.
