* WhatCouldHaveBeen: There is actually an alternate ending written to this episode where Jesse loses but shockingly finds himself still alive. Fats predicts that Jesse will die "as all second-raters die: you'll be buried and forgotten without me touching you. If you'd beaten me, you'd have lived forever." Fats vanishes, and Jesse vows to keep practicing until he is good enough to face Fats once more. This ending was used in a remake of the episode for [[Series/TheTwilightZone1985 the 1980s series]], ''without'' anyone informing George Clayton Johnson (the writer of the original story) about it.
