Talk:The Forms of Things Unknown

"Detailed synopsis"

I think this is not needed. It is too lengthy and what is the point of it? Interestingly, it omits that when the women first meet Tome, he soliloquizes from "A Midsummer's Night Dream":

   "Such tricks hath strong imagination,
   That if it would but apprehend some joy,
   It comprehends some bringer of that joy;
   Or in the night, imagining some fear,
   How easy is a bush supposed a bear!"

This is an introduction to his apology for frightening them in the woods. He is the "bear." "This kind of story element became known as "the bear". -- The_Outer_Limits_(1963_TV_series) . The title of the episode comes from "A Midsummer's Night Dream" as well. Edit: I'd like to add that the episode takes place on a summer night (presumably, because of the bathing scene in the beginning), and that the characters talk about their dreams.
