Loving Father
10 October 2023
In Vietnam, Private Pip is seriously wounded by fragments of a grenade. Meanwhile, his father, the bookmaker and conman Max Phillips, learns that his son is near-death. He has an argument with his partner and his bodyguard, kills them both and is also wounded. He goes to an amusement park where he meets Pip when he was ten years old, spending a long period with him.

"In Praise of Pip" is a sentimental episode of "The Twilight Zone". The plot is beautiful, and Billy Mumy has excellent participation. This is the first episode of the Fifth Season of "The Twilight Zone", again with twenty-five minutes running time. My vote is six.

Title (Brazil): "Tributo à Pip" ("Tribute to Pip")
