Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
When Happy Jack in "The Gift" learns that Sandy Crisp was behind the killing of his pal Jackson, a married man and father of three, he hunts him down. Feeling fear for the first time, Crisp is struck by the physical similarity between Happy Jack and Johnny Neilan, the son of his nearest neighbors. Although Johnny had died in a log jam twelve years ago, his bitter and rich parents still believe he is alive and await his return. Crisp proposes Happy Jack pose as the Neilans' son, rob their safe, and give his share of the money to Jackson's widow. Reluctantly, Happy Jack agrees, but he is not prepared for what he encounters on this Christmas Eve.
