Synopsis for "The Other Side!"
Lost travelers pull up to a farmer who warns them about staying in the nearby motel's room 4-A because anyone who does is sucked up by a "horrible device" never to be seen again. The couple check into the motel and sure enough, given room 4-A. The woman is apprehensive but the man figures the farmer was just trying to scare them. The woman turns on the tv and eventually drifts off to sleep. She is woken by the man lying next to her in the desert. They see a mirror-like surface next to them and inside is their motel room. They can't break through to get back. Cain, sitting in room 4-A, watches the two of them for awhile and then turns off the tv set.
