Redirect to:

List of The Twilight Zone (1985 TV series) episodes#ep9

This page is a redirect. The following categories are used to track and monitor this redirect:

From a television episode: This is a redirect from a television or radio episode title to a related work or lists of episodes. The destination may be an article about a related episode, a subsection or a standalone list of episodes.

To an embedded anchor: This is a redirect from a topic that does not have its own page to an embedded anchor on the redirect's target page.
- An {{anchor|(anchor name)}} or {{visible anchor}} template, a HTML element with id="(anchor name)", or an |id=(anchor name) parameter might be installed at the beginning of a paragraph, in or near a section header or within a table. The anchor might also be an old section header that has been edited and is anchored within or near the new header to prevent broken internal and external links.
- Even though section headers of the general form ==(Header name)== are themselves a type of anchor, use {{R to section}} instead.

From a cross-project redirect: This is a redirect from a title linked to an item on Wikidata. The Wikidata item linked to this page is Dead Woman's Shoes (Q5245441).
- Use this template only on hard redirects – for soft redirects use {{Soft redirect with Wikidata item}}.

With possibilities: This is a redirect from a title that potentially could be expanded into a new article or other type of associated page such as a new template. The topic described by this title may be more detailed than is currently provided on the target page or in a section of that page.
- When the target page becomes too large, or for any reason a new page would be an improvement, this redirect may be replaced with an article, template or other project page that is carved out of the target page. See also {{R to section}} and use together with this rcat when appropriate.
- If the topic of the redirect is not susceptible to expansion, then use other rcats such as {{R to section}} or {{R to list entry}} when appropriate.
- Since a new page may be created, links to this redirect should not be replaced with a direct link to the target page. To make redirects to this page, use {{R avoided double redirect}}.
- {{R printworthy}} should be used together with this template when applied to a redirect in mainspace.
- When used on a template redirect, it will automatically populate Category:Template redirects with possibilities.

From a printworthy page title: This is a redirect from a title that would be helpful in a printed or CD/DVD version of Wikipedia. See Wikipedia:Printability and Version 1.0 Editorial Team for more information.

When appropriate, protection levels are automatically sensed, described and categorized.

-==Plot==
-Maddie Duncan ([[Helen Mirren]]) is a timid thrift store employee. One day at work, she finds a pair of expensive looking high heeled shoes in a box of donations. Upon fitting them on, her personality completely changes to become confident and assertive. She storms out of the store and catches a cab to a mansion, where she is strangely comfortable. When the maid asks who she is, she claims that she is Susan Montgomery, the wife of Kyle Montgomery, a wealthy big city lawyer and the owner of the house.  She then shares tales of the maid's life which a stranger could not know.  She tells the maid she is having a bath and runs up to change.  When Maddie takes the shoes off, she turns back to the timid girl she was at the start. The maid proceeds to run her off, but once the shoes return to her feet Maddie regains the confidence and knowledge she had when she first entered the house.  Maddie had acquired the shoes shortly after the death of Susan Montgomery, when Kyle ordered the maid to dispose of Susan's remaining clothing at the thrift store where Maddie works.
-When Kyle returns home, he finds Maddie sitting on his couch dressed in his dead wife's clothes.  Maddie, as Susan, retells the events of her death, revealing how Kyle killed her. She then picks up a gun and begins shooting at him.  After a bit of a chase, Maddie's feet begin to hurt.  She takes off the shoes and returns to her usual personality.  Afraid when she sees the gun in her hand, she suddenly drops the gun, dumps the shoes in a garbage can and runs off.
-Another maid from a different house where the garbage can is, preparing to move belongings from the house, sees the shoes and puts them on.  As soon as she does she picks up the gun and walks back into Kyle's house.  A single gunshot is heard.
-==Closing narration==
-{{cquote|As we walk through life, if we learn nothing else, we learn the only sure things are death and taxes. Well, one out of two isn't bad. And haven't we all said "You can't take it with you"? Another comforting adage without exceptions in the real world, that somehow goes all wonky when considering exit lines, delivered...in the Twilight Zone.}}
