When a commercial break interrupted him, he called his 6-year-old granddaughter Jill in to watch with him, and prepared cookies and lemonade for her while imagining all the many uses that commercial breaks could have in one's life. He filled her in on the movie up to that point, and when the commercials were over, she sat on his lap and they watched it together. While she was initially frightened of [[King Kong/1933|Kong]], she was rooting for him by the end, and cried when he fell off of the Empire State Building. Howller recalled that when he had taken her mother to see the same movie, at around the same age that Jill was now, she had cried at the end as well. After the film, a [[wikipedia:Wile E. Coyote and the Road Runner|Wile E. Coyote and the Road Runner]] cartoon came on, and she began to feel better. However, on seeing Wile. E. Coyote fall from a great height, she wondered why Kong did not recover from his comparatively smaller fall to the coyote's. Jill, being quite young, had difficulty distinguishing between live TV and pre-recorded programs, and didn't consider the difference between animated and live action programming. This concerned her grandfather more than he was willing to admit, and he secretly worried whether or not exposure to the TV had made her permanently unable to distinguish fiction from reality. All the same, he then explained to her that Wile E. Coyote was animated, which led her to the conclusion that Kong had not been real, due to the film's having been taped, and not a live performance, which she believed was the only kind of program in which people could undergo real harm. Howller then explained that while the movie had not shown real harm befall Kong, it was based on true events that he had witnessed as a 13-year-old in 1931.

When a commercial break interrupted him, he called his 6-year-old granddaughter Jill in to watch with him, and prepared cookies and lemonade for her while imagining all the many uses that commercial breaks could have in one's life. He filled her in on the movie up to that point, and when the commercials were over, she sat on his lap and they watched it together. While she was initially frightened of [[King Kong/1933|Kong]], she was rooting for him by the end, and cried when he fell off of the <ins style="font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;">[[</ins>Empire State Building<ins style="font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;">]]</ins>. Howller recalled that when he had taken her mother to see the same movie, at around the same age that Jill was now, she had cried at the end as well. After the film, a [[wikipedia:Wile E. Coyote and the Road Runner|Wile E. Coyote and the Road Runner]] cartoon came on, and she began to feel better. However, on seeing Wile. E. Coyote fall from a great height, she wondered why Kong did not recover from his comparatively smaller fall to the coyote's. Jill, being quite young, had difficulty distinguishing between live TV and pre-recorded programs, and didn't consider the difference between animated and live action programming. This concerned her grandfather more than he was willing to admit, and he secretly worried whether or not exposure to the TV had made her permanently unable to distinguish fiction from reality. All the same, he then explained to her that Wile E. Coyote was animated, which led her to the conclusion that Kong had not been real, due to the film's having been taped, and not a live performance, which she believed was the only kind of program in which people could undergo real harm. Howller then explained that while the movie had not shown real harm befall Kong, it was based on true events that he had witnessed as a 13-year-old in 1931. He revealed that he had gone to see the real Kong the night he had broken out, and gathered in the crowd around his body after the fall.</div></td></tr>

It was nominated for Best Short Story at the 1974 Nebula Awards. It is set in Farmer's "[[wikipedia:Wold Newton family|Wold Newton Universe]]," a series of stories which link together scores of fictional characters through a genealogy that explains their near-superhuman powers. The story treats the [[King Kong (1933 film)|original ''King Kong'' film]] and its [[King Kong (1932 novelization)|1932 novelization]] as works inspired by the real Kong's capture and rampage through New York City in 1931.</div></td></tr>

When a commercial break interrupted him, he called his 6-year-old granddaughter Jill in to watch with him, and prepared cookies and lemonade for her while imagining all the many uses commercial breaks could have in one's life. He filled her in on the movie up to that point, and when the commercials were over, she sat on his lap and they watched it together. While she was initially frightened of [[King Kong/1933|Kong]], she was rooting for him by the end, and cried when he fell off of the Empire State Building. Howller recalled that when he had taken her mother to see the same movie, at around the same age that Jill was now, she had cried at the end as well. After the film, a [[wikipedia:Wile E. Coyote and the Road Runner|Wile E. Coyote and the Road Runner]] cartoon came on, and she began to feel better. However, on seeing Wile. E. Coyote fall from a great height, she wondered why Kong did not recover from his comparatively smaller fall to the coyote's. Jill, being quite young, had difficulty distinguishing between live TV and pre-recorded programs, and didn't consider the difference between animated and live action programming. This concerned her grandfather more than he was willing to admit, and he secretly worried whether or not exposure to the TV had made her permanently unable to distinguish fiction from reality. All the same, he explained to her that Wile E. Coyote was animated, which led her to the conclusion that Kong had not been real, due to the film's having been taped, and not a live performance, which she believed was the only kind of program in which people could undergo real harm. Howller then explained that while the movie had not shown real harm befall Kong, it was based on true events that he had witnessed as a 13-year-old in 1931. He revealed that he had gone to see the real Kong the night he had broken out, and gathered in the crowd around his body after the fall.</div></td><td class="diff-marker" data-marker="+"></td><td style="color: #202122; font-size: 88%; border-style: solid; border-width: 1px 1px 1px 4px; border-radius: 0.33em; border-color: #a3d3ff; vertical-align: top; white-space: pre-wrap;"><div>In 1973, the 55-year-old Tim Howller sat watching the film ''[[King Kong (1933 film)|King Kong]]'' on television.
