This is one of those weird comedic-horror short skits that Night Gallery is famous or not so famous for, starring Robert Morse and Rudy Vallee as a photographer and doctor, respectively. The setting is rather campy at best, but I still enjoyed the scenery and atmosphere which resembled Mr. Grinch's lair in the sky, as we find out that this is where the doctor has retired to. To make a long story short, they both meet near this residence of the doctor's and it seems the photographer has a natural talent for predicting the future, and the doctor serves him marmalade wine and believes his talent so much that he starts to follow up on the predictions, and they all come true. This makes the eccentric doc very happy, and eventually makes Mr. Blacker very drunk; soon after, he falls asleep and the doctor informs him of a special procedure he rendered to the recently awoken friend. I won't spoil the money play at the end, but it's fairly memorable.
