"There is nothing wrong with your television set. Do not attempt to adjust the picture. We are controlling transmission. If we wish to make it louder, we will bring up the volume. If we wish to make it softer, we will tune it to a whisper.

Control Voice Opening 2 (170 K - 15,7 sec)

Control Voice Opening 3 (222 K - 20,5 sec)
"We now return control of your television set to you, until next week, at the same time when the Control Voice will take you to... THE OUTER LIMITS."
