Twilight Zone: Time Enough at Last

Rules for Time Enough At Last Homeboy can’t get what he wants, EVER Everyone is a jerk to him… probably because of the reading Okay, everyone can’t get what they want Women are assertive, but also depicted like jerks?

Creates a reaction for the reader NO LEGAL CONSEQUECE for murder Timeless? Why? (happens yearly) Person with a black dot gets stoned Only because tradition– they do it because they always do it Power structure: older you are, the more power you have Husbands above wifes> children (They only care about the dudes!) 1948 (we see the oppression echoed from our own world) Kids have stones? Kids are brutal Mandatory participation?
