It was an astounding story just as many of the episodes were. Rod Serling was an incredible and talented man. If you're not familiar with his show, you really need to check out many of the episodes. You won't be sorry you did. They are available on the internet.

When President Brookfield's sudden heart attack puts his vice president into the presidency, the rules of engagement change-for the worst. The new president attempts to appease the radical Islamic element and temper the reign of terrorism. His peace at any cost diplomacy, however, results in a series of catastrophic events-the emersion of the Palestinian National Alliance, a nuclear-armed Iraq, an isolated Israel and a rein of violence that begins with a gas attack on the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. After the wife of wealthy philanthropist Jonathon Gates is killed in the attack on NYC, he and members of his humanitarian foundation, do what the government will not do-take on the terrorists on their own turf and in their own way. To obtain their objective, the Foundation turns to a team of loyal, military misfits who quickly begin turning plow shafts into swords. Added to the team, is Russian immigrant Stanko Shirski. Stanko uses his ties to the Russian Mafia to assist in a more domestic chore-removing the new president from office-one way or another. While the eye for an eye biblical edict lashes out at the terrorists, unintended consequences push the conflict to a critical point. Ultimately, Gates and the Foundation are forced to consider the ultimate retaliation. Revenge is a harsh taskmaster.

Months after retiring from his long career as a murderer-for-hire, Carlton Westerfield faces the most baffling situation of his life: murders in and around San Antonio are being committed by someone who uses a combination of techniques he employed in the past, including the intentional maiming wounds he inflicted on the killer of his friend, Tino Perez. The FBI, commonly the investigator of serial killings, has formed a joint task force with the local DEA office to investigate the similar murders and, unfortunately for Carlton, certain members from the force are bent on hanging the mysterious killings on him. Despite the absence of motive or any hard evidence, two of the agents continue their crusade against Carlton because of his unfortunate proximity to each murder scene, plus his past methods, especially in the shooting of Tino's killer. Flimsy as their tunnel-vision reasoning is, Carlton is unable to shake their relentless pursuit, so he calls on his well-connected friend Reynaldo Gomez for help in unraveling the mystery. Reynaldo's new assistant, an attractive computer whiz, sets forth to uncover the reasons for the unjustified focus on the retired hitman. But her efforts are fruitless, and as the bodies stack up, the heat on Carlton intensifies. It seems no amount of digital sleuthing can solve the problem, and the noose is tightening around his neck. Once again, Carlton Westerfield finds himself wishing he'd pursued a different career path, but it's too late now. As usual, Carlton feels the resolution for any dilemma can be found by looking in the mirror, so he sets out to save himself from indictment for crimes he didn't commit-or a retirement on the run.
