Unknown Broadcast returns with old-time radio horror stories and classic OTR suspense—a winter-loaded anthology where snowstorms swallow roads, ice keeps secrets, and the cold feels alive. If you love radio suspense, ghost story anthologies, and classic mystery-thriller drama, this one is built for headphones on a dark night.
  • 🧊 “The Ice Palace” — A glittering winter miracle with a rotten core… and something inside it that shouldn’t ever thaw.
  • 🥶 “Death Has a Cold Breath” — A stranger’s journey turns fatal when the night air itself seems to exhale wrong.
  • 🛣️ “Snow on 66” — A lonely highway, a whiteout wall, and a ride you’ll wish you never offered.
  • ❄️ “The Time of the Big Snow” — A town disappears under drifts, and what’s buried doesn’t stay buried forever.

These are winter horror stories, snowstorm thrillers, and ice-cold radio nightmares—the kind that make your heater sound like footsteps.

The snow will stop eventually… but what followed your tracks won’t.

00:00:09.720 --> 00:00:15.039
Ah, my dear, If I'm honest, I wouldn't expect you

2
00:00:15.119 --> 00:00:20.640
to make it, what with thee inclement weather we're experiencing.

3
00:00:21.679 --> 00:00:27.679
Oh what's that? Well, I do appreciate that you're willing

4
00:00:27.760 --> 00:00:32.000
to risk a little bit of life and limb to

5
00:00:32.159 --> 00:00:37.640
visit with little old me. Well, I'll be sure to

6
00:00:37.719 --> 00:00:43.359
put an extra log on the fire as your tea steeps,

7
00:00:43.359 --> 00:00:49.200
something warm to drink, A comfortable chair, and a chilly

8
00:00:50.000 --> 00:00:56.560
listen all make for a much more bearable winter time.

9
00:00:57.960 --> 00:01:03.840
Don't consider this bad weather. Consider this in many ways,

10
00:01:04.560 --> 00:01:06.239
your ice palace.

11
00:01:07.840 --> 00:01:38.319
That CBS Radio, mystre theater presents.

12
00:01:27.560 --> 00:01:28.040
Come in.

13
00:01:30.439 --> 00:01:30.959
Welcome.

14
00:01:31.719 --> 00:01:32.280
I'm e. G.

15
00:01:32.560 --> 00:01:37.319
Marshall, what a fragile species mankind really is.

16
00:01:38.200 --> 00:01:39.920
We're not nearly so twift.

17
00:01:39.920 --> 00:01:43.680
Or agile as many of our lesser cousins. And consider

18
00:01:43.719 --> 00:01:47.959
our vulnerability to shift in the temperature on a spectrum

19
00:01:48.000 --> 00:01:52.120
that ranges from twelve thousand degrees the temperature of the

20
00:01:52.200 --> 00:01:56.920
Sun to the bitter, chilling void of outer space. We

21
00:01:57.000 --> 00:02:03.040
can survive unaided only in a microscopic span of less

22
00:02:03.040 --> 00:02:04.599
than seventy degrees.

23
00:02:05.159 --> 00:02:09.879
There, ghost sun, surely enough? Who was free? Students? We

24
00:02:10.319 --> 00:02:13.240
can't get back to our radio our escape has been

25
00:02:13.280 --> 00:02:13.680
cut off.

26
00:02:13.960 --> 00:02:16.439
The only person who knows we are here on this

27
00:02:16.599 --> 00:02:29.280
glacier who would rather see us dead than alive. Our

28
00:02:29.319 --> 00:02:33.199
mystery drama, The Ice Palace, was written especially for the

29
00:02:33.280 --> 00:02:38.800
Mystery Theater by Percy Grainger and stars Tony Roberts. It

30
00:02:38.879 --> 00:02:42.319
is sponsored in part by a Newick motor division. I'll

31
00:02:42.360 --> 00:02:55.560
be that shortly with that one. The Arctic regions are

32
00:02:55.599 --> 00:02:58.800
a permanent reminder of one of the most dramatic periods

33
00:02:58.840 --> 00:03:04.000
in the Earth's history, the Ice Age. Some scientists claim

34
00:03:04.080 --> 00:03:07.479
the Earth is cooling down and another ice age is

35
00:03:07.520 --> 00:03:10.759
on the way. Others say the Earth is still.

36
00:03:10.599 --> 00:03:13.599
Warming up and if the trend continues.

37
00:03:13.680 --> 00:03:17.599
The vast ice caps will begin to melt. Either way,

38
00:03:18.120 --> 00:03:22.840
the polar regions are under constant and careful scooping were

39
00:03:22.879 --> 00:03:26.639
lots deep within their massive glaciers, all could be the

40
00:03:26.719 --> 00:03:30.879
key to the future of the world. We're board a

41
00:03:30.960 --> 00:03:34.479
Canadian naval ice crutters north to be not sup circles,

42
00:03:34.919 --> 00:03:37.759
but the time when as here nine hundred Jack, we're

43
00:03:37.800 --> 00:03:39.360
ran on schedule a SMA.

44
00:03:39.639 --> 00:03:42.439
Around that point of it, there's only ten more miles

45
00:03:42.479 --> 00:03:44.719
of ice between us ok or curve.

46
00:03:46.000 --> 00:03:47.039
All the boring jut.

47
00:03:47.240 --> 00:03:49.759
Cutting channel to ice has got to be the worst.

48
00:03:50.039 --> 00:03:51.319
They'll be glad to get back to base.

49
00:03:51.360 --> 00:03:54.080
And you bet we use the running with ice and snow,

50
00:03:54.199 --> 00:03:56.800
the stiff of the forty below prom But I belong

51
00:03:56.879 --> 00:03:58.159
up in the air, you know that.

52
00:03:58.319 --> 00:04:01.840
So I just don't know why the crowne send.

53
00:04:01.639 --> 00:04:02.879
Me on the shoe mission.

54
00:04:03.400 --> 00:04:05.879
My eyes are better now, I should be lying there.

55
00:04:06.199 --> 00:04:08.800
Well, we're gonna tend more miles of ice and then

56
00:04:08.840 --> 00:04:12.000
we're gonna have I shouldn't know. The pilots start bringing

57
00:04:12.000 --> 00:04:12.919
here about we're.

58
00:04:12.759 --> 00:04:14.439
All my eye get.

59
00:04:24.519 --> 00:04:30.560
Ye, hey, yeah, come up here? What is it? My

60
00:04:30.680 --> 00:04:33.720
eyes is supposed to be sealed now, right, I didn't

61
00:04:33.920 --> 00:04:35.600
have set it just before we left Bate.

62
00:04:36.000 --> 00:04:38.839
Yeah, and so what's the problem. You tell me?

63
00:04:39.759 --> 00:04:44.199
Look the channel, it's already clear.

64
00:04:44.600 --> 00:04:47.040
There is no sign of ice anywhere.

65
00:04:47.600 --> 00:04:49.920
We are in open water this time of Yeah, the

66
00:04:49.959 --> 00:04:53.040
channel is always under a layer of ice. And if

67
00:04:53.040 --> 00:04:55.680
we're on course, the immens an iceberg should be off

68
00:04:55.680 --> 00:04:58.920
our stop a file, But there's nothing there but open water.

69
00:05:00.199 --> 00:05:04.279
When tell a pilet to ten or about we better

70
00:05:04.319 --> 00:05:16.480
report this back to the base at once, I.

71
00:05:07.240 --> 00:05:12.199
Know, And that's it.

72
00:05:12.360 --> 00:05:15.519
Kanel We round his Victoria Point and there was nothing

73
00:05:15.560 --> 00:05:18.279
but open water as far as the eye could see. Joe,

74
00:05:18.360 --> 00:05:21.160
you know, the ice flows up there never break up.

75
00:05:21.120 --> 00:05:24.920
Not even during the summer month. Sure you didn't see anything,

76
00:05:24.959 --> 00:05:26.920
not even chunks of free floating ice.

77
00:05:27.079 --> 00:05:28.199
No, not things.

78
00:05:28.240 --> 00:05:30.160
You know, Well, it doesn't make sense.

79
00:05:30.800 --> 00:05:32.560
We had a spot a plane over that area not

80
00:05:32.639 --> 00:05:34.759
two days ago, and they reported everything was normal.

81
00:05:35.360 --> 00:05:37.319
They saw the Mondson iceberg too.

82
00:05:38.600 --> 00:05:41.439
So something caused those waters they heat up to the

83
00:05:41.480 --> 00:05:44.839
point where it broke up a massive icefield. What kind

84
00:05:44.879 --> 00:05:47.879
of a fort could melt that much ice. We don't

85
00:05:47.879 --> 00:05:50.120
know for sure that it did. What do you mean

86
00:05:51.160 --> 00:05:53.879
or the ice in the channel? Perhaps, but the Mondson

87
00:05:53.879 --> 00:05:58.079
iceberg was twenty miles long channel. Nothing could cause something

88
00:05:58.160 --> 00:06:00.959
that big to completely disappear. I think it may only

89
00:06:01.000 --> 00:06:01.879
have broken up.

90
00:06:01.879 --> 00:06:05.000
Or shifted, And I think we have to consider that

91
00:06:05.120 --> 00:06:05.879
of possibility.

92
00:06:06.000 --> 00:06:10.399
And the current and the Victoria Channel flows southwest right

93
00:06:10.399 --> 00:06:11.920
into the main shipping lane to the.

94
00:06:11.879 --> 00:06:14.319
North slopes of Alaska Sudio.

95
00:06:14.879 --> 00:06:18.639
Super Tankers and supplieships moving through that area constantly at

96
00:06:18.680 --> 00:06:21.360
this very minute. There could be ice floating directly towards them.

97
00:06:21.519 --> 00:06:23.160
We've got to get a scout sign up at one

98
00:06:23.240 --> 00:06:27.360
alcohol air wing and have them burn. Please, with your permission,

99
00:06:27.879 --> 00:06:31.519
I'd like to go up you and you haven't blown

100
00:06:31.600 --> 00:06:34.160
them over a year of My sight's back to normal now,

101
00:06:34.279 --> 00:06:35.920
and the doc gave me a clean fleet.

102
00:06:36.319 --> 00:06:37.000
But I don't know.

103
00:06:37.360 --> 00:06:39.800
It's not that I don't get along with Captain Gates.

104
00:06:39.839 --> 00:06:44.279
I do, but I'm a pilot channel. I don't belong

105
00:06:44.360 --> 00:06:53.000
on the ship. Okay, when help you, sir? I hope

106
00:06:53.000 --> 00:06:54.800
I made the right decision to them. I think you

107
00:06:54.879 --> 00:06:57.079
did before.

108
00:06:56.720 --> 00:06:59.079
That car accident. There wasn't a better pilot than the wing,

109
00:06:59.240 --> 00:07:02.160
that's right, or the actions. They'll be fine, He'll be fine.

110
00:07:02.199 --> 00:07:04.279
You just need to get his confidence back. Well.

111
00:07:04.319 --> 00:07:09.319
I hope you're right. Yeah, when it's up, I wish

112
00:07:09.399 --> 00:07:15.920
to speak to our corobat. It is important, all right,

113
00:07:16.000 --> 00:07:20.360
come in, come in. You're his courbacks. They had them

114
00:07:20.360 --> 00:07:23.040
and they have him over its down the peninsula and

115
00:07:23.360 --> 00:07:26.560
afraid I have a serious problem, which belows that your

116
00:07:26.600 --> 00:07:27.240
feet cup too.

117
00:07:27.879 --> 00:07:30.199
If you will please look out the window.

118
00:07:30.600 --> 00:07:36.199
Oh well, hell congratulate, and that's fact. You and your

119
00:07:36.199 --> 00:07:37.720
people have had a record feel.

120
00:07:37.560 --> 00:07:38.199
The overs here.

121
00:07:38.319 --> 00:07:40.399
You know we have not brought these things to your

122
00:07:40.480 --> 00:07:42.079
Gates for your admiration.

123
00:07:41.759 --> 00:07:46.279
To we did not kill them? For then who did? That?

124
00:07:46.639 --> 00:07:49.920
Is what I must find out from you, this wondering.

125
00:07:50.639 --> 00:07:53.040
They were found to wash up and they before. I

126
00:07:53.160 --> 00:07:56.079
can't they just stow them like you always do, or

127
00:07:56.160 --> 00:07:57.360
that would not be safe?

128
00:07:57.399 --> 00:07:57.519
Oh?

129
00:07:57.480 --> 00:07:57.800
Why not?

130
00:07:58.519 --> 00:08:02.439
Because we cannot be said them how they died? Excuse me,

131
00:08:02.480 --> 00:08:05.680
Connel the cooler back. Did you say these seals that

132
00:08:05.720 --> 00:08:07.480
they've walked the shore? Yes?

133
00:08:08.399 --> 00:08:09.120
But how can you be.

134
00:08:09.040 --> 00:08:11.360
Sure they died at seed? How do you know they

135
00:08:11.360 --> 00:08:14.600
weren't already on the beach because we have seen other

136
00:08:14.800 --> 00:08:20.519
ceilings in the water floating with their very tunnel. With

137
00:08:20.680 --> 00:08:22.920
your permission, I'd like to go out with Kolback and

138
00:08:23.000 --> 00:08:23.920
examine those animals.

139
00:08:24.079 --> 00:08:26.439
Joe, we've got a farm or a serious situation.

140
00:08:26.560 --> 00:08:29.720
But it repossible, sir, that there may be a connection

141
00:08:29.839 --> 00:08:32.360
between the disappearance of that glacier and the fate of

142
00:08:32.360 --> 00:08:33.399
those seals.

143
00:08:34.000 --> 00:08:36.360
I think we'd better find out how they died.

144
00:08:45.440 --> 00:08:48.679
They haven't even kept them. They did not want this

145
00:08:48.960 --> 00:08:52.559
minitary they hear. There's still no proof that we are responsible.

146
00:08:54.399 --> 00:08:58.600
There are any visible wounds on the animals. Look more closely, escape,

147
00:08:58.720 --> 00:09:05.159
look's discolored and shriveled, almost like it's been charred.

148
00:09:06.279 --> 00:09:07.240
Is not deep?

149
00:09:07.320 --> 00:09:11.519
What happens so skating which has been exposed to nuclear radiation?

150
00:09:13.799 --> 00:09:14.919
Yes, actually it is.

151
00:09:16.320 --> 00:09:18.720
But there's no nuclear testing going on in the Arctic

152
00:09:18.840 --> 00:09:21.559
by either the rest or the ease. How can your

153
00:09:21.720 --> 00:09:27.120
state is for testing? Well, any nuclear explosions would have

154
00:09:27.159 --> 00:09:30.840
registered on our monstering equipment bodies. Not the whole point

155
00:09:30.960 --> 00:09:34.720
for each side could try to think up weapons which

156
00:09:34.759 --> 00:09:40.440
would escape detection. But we'll run tests on one of

157
00:09:40.440 --> 00:09:43.679
the fields is if our government is in any way responsible,

158
00:09:44.039 --> 00:09:53.559
believe me, we'll make it up to you. Nuclear radiation,

159
00:09:53.840 --> 00:09:58.080
that's impossible, perhaps, but those animals exhibited all the signs

160
00:09:58.080 --> 00:10:01.480
of having died from a massive rate gioactive shock. Captain,

161
00:10:01.519 --> 00:10:03.960
do you understand the implications of what you were saying?

162
00:10:04.000 --> 00:10:06.600
If some nation is using the Arctic of a testing.

163
00:10:06.360 --> 00:10:09.120
Ground and they developed a weapon that can eliminate a

164
00:10:09.200 --> 00:10:12.440
twenty mile long iceberg without registering so much as a

165
00:10:12.519 --> 00:10:15.080
tit on our seize mona. We still don't know the

166
00:10:15.120 --> 00:10:18.759
Amonton iceberg is vanished entirely. Wind hasn't radioed in yet.

167
00:10:19.480 --> 00:10:26.279
Oh tyl kamswiki, Yeah, be sure of that.

168
00:10:29.039 --> 00:10:29.720
Thanks very much.

169
00:10:31.679 --> 00:10:32.559
Now that was a lab.

170
00:10:32.639 --> 00:10:36.440
They completed the autopsy in one of those seals. There

171
00:10:36.519 --> 00:10:40.960
was no sign of radiation sickness, not at all. Well,

172
00:10:41.000 --> 00:10:44.840
what if they tire look simple heat frustrations.

173
00:10:45.279 --> 00:10:49.840
Heat postation at the north pole. Not only that, Joe.

174
00:10:49.879 --> 00:10:52.240
While you were out with quarterback, I was getting reports

175
00:10:52.279 --> 00:10:56.240
from Halifax, rack of it, to cities from ice under Alaska,

176
00:10:56.320 --> 00:11:01.480
and they're all reporting the same thing. Arise in the

177
00:11:01.559 --> 00:11:02.519
level of the ocean.

178
00:11:03.799 --> 00:11:06.399
Why how much?

179
00:11:06.600 --> 00:11:09.000
It's still very slight, but it's enough to be measured

180
00:11:11.320 --> 00:11:13.679
in our joy of the conclusion seems inescapable.

181
00:11:15.120 --> 00:11:18.840
Somehow, some way, something.

182
00:11:18.519 --> 00:11:21.919
Is causing the polar ice cap to warm up. But

183
00:11:22.080 --> 00:11:27.240
this rapidly that goes. He gets so scientific predictions And

184
00:11:27.360 --> 00:11:30.840
how can it be selective? I mean, why the Aminson iceberg?

185
00:11:30.919 --> 00:11:32.200
But not all outpost here.

186
00:11:33.919 --> 00:11:37.600
Dottal Champaking, Oh yeah good, I'll pick him on in

187
00:11:37.639 --> 00:11:39.639
here Win is on a on.

188
00:11:39.879 --> 00:11:41.120
Maybe now we'll find out something.

189
00:11:43.600 --> 00:11:47.039
Well, when there's a cold chap, do you read me?

190
00:11:50.200 --> 00:11:51.559
What can you see from up there?

191
00:11:52.440 --> 00:11:54.279
Nothing at all?

192
00:11:53.879 --> 00:11:56.240
The Amazon player anywhere?

193
00:11:57.080 --> 00:11:59.200
What are you positive.

194
00:12:00.519 --> 00:12:00.759
Area?

195
00:12:01.519 --> 00:12:02.879
What attitude of you applying at.

196
00:12:05.919 --> 00:12:07.000
I can't find so much.

197
00:12:08.600 --> 00:12:12.360
That's not possible. Yes, when what is it?

198
00:12:12.639 --> 00:12:13.000
Spotted?

199
00:12:13.080 --> 00:12:14.000
Night spotted?

200
00:12:14.639 --> 00:12:15.679
You're gonna believe it?

201
00:12:17.720 --> 00:12:18.200
What?

202
00:12:18.200 --> 00:12:18.279
What?

203
00:12:18.440 --> 00:12:22.600
Believe? What? Hell? Win? Win? The radio? Come Dad? I

204
00:12:22.679 --> 00:12:23.320
lost contact?

205
00:12:23.320 --> 00:12:28.840
He hello, Win, Yes, yes, I know the radio is

206
00:12:28.879 --> 00:12:30.960
Dad put me through to the radar room.

207
00:12:31.279 --> 00:12:32.559
So it happened to win.

208
00:12:32.639 --> 00:12:36.399
I hello the radar that's the playing we send out.

209
00:12:36.399 --> 00:12:47.360
What's its location? Were you sure it isn't malfunctional? Yeah, okay, okay.

210
00:12:47.399 --> 00:12:48.279
If anything happens with.

211
00:12:48.360 --> 00:12:53.720
Me know they lost him on the radar screen as well.

212
00:12:54.320 --> 00:13:01.600
At the same time the radio went dead. He's vanished, vanished,

213
00:13:08.000 --> 00:13:09.440
all the stout things back Jill.

214
00:13:10.080 --> 00:13:15.320
Yes, nothing, no trace of Wind or his play.

215
00:13:17.279 --> 00:13:19.000
I never should have let him go up.

216
00:13:19.039 --> 00:13:21.639
He wasn't ready to go. I don't think he crashed.

217
00:13:22.639 --> 00:13:27.600
Why not? You remember what he said just before losing contact.

218
00:13:28.000 --> 00:13:31.360
I double checked on the black boxes the exact words

219
00:13:31.399 --> 00:13:36.320
where I've spotted ice, I've spotted ice ah h.

220
00:13:37.320 --> 00:13:39.279
According to the radar room these were his.

221
00:13:39.320 --> 00:13:47.759
Coordinates at that precise moment three h h. So obviously

222
00:13:47.799 --> 00:13:52.519
what he was seeing was that the Lancaster I field.

223
00:13:52.919 --> 00:13:56.879
You know, right, Except for one thing, Colonel, It isn't

224
00:13:56.879 --> 00:14:02.240
fair anymore. Why Scout plans reported no sign of the

225
00:14:02.320 --> 00:14:07.960
Lancaster ice field. It's gone twenty five square miles of

226
00:14:08.039 --> 00:14:16.519
solid ice. Whatever got that ice field got wind, Joe,

227
00:14:16.919 --> 00:14:21.759
I'm calling Ottawa. I think Qutterback is right. There is

228
00:14:21.799 --> 00:14:24.399
some kind of nuclear activity going on up here, and

229
00:14:24.440 --> 00:14:28.759
it isn't on our side, Joe. Some strange force is

230
00:14:28.759 --> 00:14:32.879
causing the polar ice captive milk, and if we can't

231
00:14:32.879 --> 00:14:44.600
stop it, the results will be catastrophic. We might say

232
00:14:45.000 --> 00:14:50.559
it's an extreme form of water and extreme Aristotle telegraph

233
00:14:50.960 --> 00:14:52.840
how to be avoided on principles?

234
00:14:53.480 --> 00:14:55.440
What would happen should.

235
00:14:55.240 --> 00:14:58.360
All the ice on Earth vanish?

236
00:14:58.840 --> 00:15:02.559
Well, we know that's not top Nothing just vanishes, And

237
00:15:02.639 --> 00:15:05.720
in the case of ice, it would change into water,

238
00:15:06.919 --> 00:15:11.399
a great deal of water. But she'll return shortly with

239
00:15:11.559 --> 00:15:22.440
that too. All around us there are reminders of the

240
00:15:22.559 --> 00:15:27.240
awesome forces of the glaciers. They gouged out valleys and

241
00:15:27.720 --> 00:15:31.360
two up mountains. But when we consider the fact that

242
00:15:31.480 --> 00:15:34.720
the amount of water contained in the ice sheets at

243
00:15:34.720 --> 00:15:36.000
either end of the Earth.

244
00:15:36.440 --> 00:15:39.519
Is enough to flood most of the world's.

245
00:15:39.159 --> 00:15:44.679
Landmasks, perhaps the most awesome thing ice can do is

246
00:15:44.879 --> 00:15:49.000
melt all. My orders from Ottawa are very clear We're

247
00:15:49.080 --> 00:15:50.879
the only military posts in this area.

248
00:15:51.759 --> 00:15:53.519
It's up to us to find out what's going on.

249
00:15:53.919 --> 00:15:55.399
I want to know what happened to Wind.

250
00:15:56.200 --> 00:15:57.720
I know he was your friend, Joe.

251
00:15:57.759 --> 00:16:01.799
But the radar rooms that they lost contact instantaneously. If

252
00:16:01.799 --> 00:16:05.240
he was obliterated, If there's only one thing that can

253
00:16:05.279 --> 00:16:08.600
do that, some kind of missile. The radar room picked

254
00:16:08.679 --> 00:16:11.120
up no other signals. How could a missile destroy a

255
00:16:11.159 --> 00:16:19.879
plane and escape all detection? Little speaking, Yeah, I see

256
00:16:21.320 --> 00:16:26.679
you now, please keep me in pum thank you. Well,

257
00:16:26.759 --> 00:16:31.399
that was the post base. They just reported another rise

258
00:16:31.519 --> 00:16:32.639
in the level of the ocean.

259
00:16:33.799 --> 00:16:36.279
It just keeps up. The entire Earth will be flooded.

260
00:16:36.960 --> 00:16:41.000
Peaces just don't fit. If some natural phenomenon is causing

261
00:16:41.039 --> 00:16:43.919
the Earth to heat up, how does that explain winds disappearance,

262
00:16:44.600 --> 00:16:47.320
Or if it's some kind of nuclear activity, why isn't

263
00:16:47.320 --> 00:16:50.360
it registering on our monitors that They's.

264
00:16:50.200 --> 00:16:55.720
Only two possibilities. Either someone has developed an incredibly sophisticated

265
00:16:55.799 --> 00:16:59.639
weapon which our equipment can't detect, or.

266
00:17:01.519 --> 00:17:03.440
Or we are face to face with some force we

267
00:17:03.559 --> 00:17:04.240
know nothing.

268
00:17:04.039 --> 00:17:12.519
About, you mean, supernatural that or some force.

269
00:17:12.319 --> 00:17:13.480
From me on the planet.

270
00:17:15.119 --> 00:17:15.319
Huh.

271
00:17:16.160 --> 00:17:17.200
How come.

272
00:17:18.799 --> 00:17:21.160
If he give by coming to you twice with the

273
00:17:21.240 --> 00:17:24.839
same problem. But my people wish to know what you

274
00:17:24.920 --> 00:17:27.519
will do to replace the seals that have been killed.

275
00:17:27.720 --> 00:17:30.200
Don't you have any food store awhere you can draw on?

276
00:17:31.359 --> 00:17:35.759
Ordinarily? Yeah, we are very provident in these matters, but

277
00:17:35.920 --> 00:17:39.000
the cases have been vandalized.

278
00:17:38.519 --> 00:17:40.160
Or you're not going to blame up for that too?

279
00:17:40.319 --> 00:17:40.559
Are you?

280
00:17:40.839 --> 00:17:40.880
No?

281
00:17:41.880 --> 00:17:44.599
Know who the guilty party is, and at the right

282
00:17:44.720 --> 00:17:46.240
moment I will explose him.

283
00:17:47.079 --> 00:17:48.480
Is it someone from our days?

284
00:17:48.839 --> 00:17:53.519
No, his name is Stomach. You do not need to interfere.

285
00:17:54.160 --> 00:17:56.519
We will take care of this in that own way.

286
00:17:56.880 --> 00:17:59.440
I know, right, Quarterback, I'll speak to the quartermaster about

287
00:17:59.480 --> 00:18:00.920
issuing the village.

288
00:18:01.319 --> 00:18:01.720
Thank you.

289
00:18:02.200 --> 00:18:04.279
Just a minute, Just a minute, quarter back.

290
00:18:05.079 --> 00:18:08.200
Why is one man robbing the meat deposits of the

291
00:18:08.400 --> 00:18:12.559
entire village because he's lazy and good for nothing from

292
00:18:12.599 --> 00:18:13.440
what happened to him.

293
00:18:13.720 --> 00:18:15.160
And he can't eat it all himself?

294
00:18:15.720 --> 00:18:20.559
He said it to whom I have been watching him.

295
00:18:21.319 --> 00:18:23.599
I have seen him load up the meat and go

296
00:18:23.839 --> 00:18:28.359
off up the Northern Channel. In my younger days, I

297
00:18:28.440 --> 00:18:31.880
could have followed him in my kayak, but now a

298
00:18:32.000 --> 00:18:35.480
motor is too much for me. And when he returns

299
00:18:35.799 --> 00:18:37.839
his boat is lighter than before, and.

300
00:18:37.920 --> 00:18:40.759
Joe, we have an urgent situation favoring as ronold.

301
00:18:40.839 --> 00:18:45.000
There are no settlements up the Northern Channel. It's frozen

302
00:18:45.039 --> 00:18:48.200
wilderness all the way to the Pole. I'd be very

303
00:18:48.279 --> 00:18:56.759
interested to know just who Sami's customers are. What do

304
00:18:56.920 --> 00:18:57.519
you want with me?

305
00:18:58.119 --> 00:19:01.200
I'd only take my boat out to hum Like the mc.

306
00:19:01.559 --> 00:19:04.960
Chulback here says, you go up the northern channels the

307
00:19:05.079 --> 00:19:05.960
hunting is better.

308
00:19:06.759 --> 00:19:08.599
I have found by a lot to do as the

309
00:19:08.680 --> 00:19:12.279
others do, said, I advise you to cooperate with the

310
00:19:12.359 --> 00:19:13.079
captain game.

311
00:19:13.480 --> 00:19:16.559
You have no power over the old man and unhealthy.

312
00:19:16.880 --> 00:19:20.319
Who you take the meat too, I do not know.

313
00:19:21.759 --> 00:19:24.279
I have never seen the man that I can swear

314
00:19:24.400 --> 00:19:27.079
to you. I do not know even if it is

315
00:19:27.200 --> 00:19:28.480
one man or many.

316
00:19:29.319 --> 00:19:30.359
Tell us what you do now.

317
00:19:31.519 --> 00:19:35.039
Several months ago I was in tools. Someone approached me.

318
00:19:35.880 --> 00:19:38.160
He said he knew I was from this village. He

319
00:19:38.279 --> 00:19:41.200
had the bargain to make the man he worked for

320
00:19:41.359 --> 00:19:43.839
would see me very well. All I had to do

321
00:19:44.039 --> 00:19:46.759
was hunt for him and once each week take what

322
00:19:47.000 --> 00:19:50.160
I had killed to a certain spot at the far

323
00:19:50.279 --> 00:19:51.480
end of the Northern Channel.

324
00:19:51.720 --> 00:19:56.200
But you found it easier to rob our stores on sam.

325
00:19:56.920 --> 00:19:57.880
That is all I know.

326
00:19:58.839 --> 00:20:01.759
I need the food, take the money which is there for.

327
00:20:01.880 --> 00:20:02.319
Me, and go.

328
00:20:02.480 --> 00:20:04.960
I see no one, no signs of life at all,

329
00:20:05.079 --> 00:20:06.160
no no building.

330
00:20:06.279 --> 00:20:07.440
He's easy wilderness.

331
00:20:07.960 --> 00:20:11.160
I do not even know how a person can survive this,

332
00:20:12.240 --> 00:20:13.759
And it's never struck you as odd.

333
00:20:14.759 --> 00:20:19.400
I'm well paid. I have no question. Is that where

334
00:20:19.400 --> 00:20:23.359
you're going now? Yes, I'm coming along.

335
00:20:23.559 --> 00:20:24.079
You cannot.

336
00:20:24.839 --> 00:20:27.599
The man was very clear, no one else not come

337
00:20:27.680 --> 00:20:27.920
with me.

338
00:20:28.279 --> 00:20:29.359
Don't worry. Don't worry.

339
00:20:30.000 --> 00:20:33.240
Whoever's out there isn't gonna see me until I want to.

340
00:20:41.839 --> 00:20:44.559
How can he survive such a bleak wilderness as this?

341
00:20:45.599 --> 00:20:47.160
There's nothing but snow? Nice?

342
00:20:47.680 --> 00:20:49.759
Please where I'm about to these the food?

343
00:20:50.119 --> 00:20:54.519
He's just around the next tin, all right, I try

344
00:20:54.599 --> 00:21:01.200
to question. I will get out here and shut up

345
00:21:01.279 --> 00:21:03.799
camp at the top of the glacier, overlooking the drop point.

346
00:21:04.480 --> 00:21:07.759
You we'd be safe. Do you think that would establish

347
00:21:07.839 --> 00:21:10.519
radio compact with the base? And it's just a matter

348
00:21:10.599 --> 00:21:12.720
of watching and waiting.

349
00:21:17.720 --> 00:21:19.599
He's a good baggage.

350
00:21:19.240 --> 00:21:22.039
Place, and the land is flat for miles in all

351
00:21:22.079 --> 00:21:26.079
directions down there. Whoever comes from those supplies can't help

352
00:21:26.119 --> 00:21:26.680
but be seen.

353
00:21:28.440 --> 00:21:30.640
And he's gonna like the look of the sky.

354
00:21:31.920 --> 00:21:35.119
He said, blizzard should come, our view will be blinded.

355
00:21:37.240 --> 00:21:40.839
Something is leaving. How look he's waiting to us.

356
00:21:41.960 --> 00:21:45.400
I have an uneasy feeling about him. He's the only

357
00:21:45.440 --> 00:21:48.519
one who knows where we are. I think we can

358
00:21:48.559 --> 00:21:49.000
trust him.

359
00:21:49.559 --> 00:21:51.119
It is strange.

360
00:21:51.200 --> 00:21:53.079
I did not what do you means?

361
00:21:53.119 --> 00:21:57.359
Only this morning? You and die now here we are

362
00:21:57.519 --> 00:22:01.720
alone and not knowing what it is we say sometimes

363
00:22:01.920 --> 00:22:05.480
trut is I'm nevable if you're right?

364
00:22:08.240 --> 00:22:09.759
His songs like it's week.

365
00:22:10.480 --> 00:22:12.039
He's coming through me in bad direction.

366
00:22:12.799 --> 00:22:14.720
We must get the tent up at once.

367
00:22:16.119 --> 00:22:20.359
But snowstorm is bucking on you. I can't see. The

368
00:22:20.400 --> 00:22:20.960
supplies to.

369
00:22:29.960 --> 00:22:33.279
My eyes are getting too old. What can you see?

370
00:22:34.440 --> 00:22:38.000
Supplies are gone. I'm almost gonna come during the storm

371
00:22:38.039 --> 00:22:41.480
and take him. Come on, let's get down there.

372
00:22:41.720 --> 00:22:44.160
I'm not sure that is a wise idea.

373
00:22:44.640 --> 00:22:44.920
Why not?

374
00:22:45.440 --> 00:22:47.720
And maybe maybe they let the crew which way they went.

375
00:22:47.880 --> 00:22:50.799
I am beginning to think we are dealing with extra

376
00:22:51.079 --> 00:22:54.599
ordinary people. No one should be able to find his

377
00:22:54.720 --> 00:22:58.000
way in the storm such as just passed, even the

378
00:22:58.119 --> 00:23:01.960
most experienced hunter. We have to stop or run the

379
00:23:02.079 --> 00:23:04.880
most certain risk of becoming lost.

380
00:23:05.240 --> 00:23:06.519
I don't worry about a cullback.

381
00:23:06.519 --> 00:23:09.359
I've got a gun, but what if arms.

382
00:23:09.440 --> 00:23:13.440
Will not work against such people as we are after?

383
00:23:20.039 --> 00:23:24.359
There's nothing here, no trace of the supply samic left.

384
00:23:24.680 --> 00:23:27.200
This doorm has covered all the tracks.

385
00:23:28.440 --> 00:23:32.000
Snow and ice as far as we can see. What's

386
00:23:32.079 --> 00:23:32.519
their job?

387
00:23:33.200 --> 00:23:34.920
What? What is happening.

388
00:23:36.279 --> 00:23:37.160
Around? Giving ready?

389
00:23:37.519 --> 00:23:38.920
He couliback stuff?

390
00:23:39.559 --> 00:23:40.359
What doing.

391
00:23:51.960 --> 00:23:58.279
Clovet? No, You're still alive. That's the metaphorical beauty of snow.

392
00:23:59.359 --> 00:24:06.559
It breaks once fall? Hoy who my name is Raven?

393
00:24:08.279 --> 00:24:08.640
Raven.

394
00:24:09.200 --> 00:24:12.000
In the mythology of the Northern peoples, the raven is

395
00:24:12.119 --> 00:24:15.279
considered a bird which can survive anywhere.

396
00:24:16.319 --> 00:24:21.200
It's also credited with the creation of the world. Where

397
00:24:21.279 --> 00:24:21.480
am I?

398
00:24:22.519 --> 00:24:29.079
You are in my fortress, the ice palace. Last thing

399
00:24:29.200 --> 00:24:31.759
I remember was falling.

400
00:24:32.920 --> 00:24:33.640
Of course.

401
00:24:34.880 --> 00:24:40.599
Underground. That's how you escape detection. Stand up and I

402
00:24:40.680 --> 00:24:48.200
will show you around. A children dream of building snowcastles

403
00:24:48.759 --> 00:24:52.880
and of defending them against the world. I have made

404
00:24:52.960 --> 00:24:54.039
that dream of reality.

405
00:24:55.240 --> 00:25:01.720
But I've added, as you will see, voluntarily, certain refinements,

406
00:25:03.279 --> 00:25:09.440
passages everywhere, Yes, like amaze, and everything is so wide

407
00:25:10.279 --> 00:25:13.960
finding the entire palace is simply hollowed out of the

408
00:25:14.119 --> 00:25:15.119
snow and ice.

409
00:25:15.720 --> 00:25:18.920
Small holes and the feelings allow for ventilation and carry

410
00:25:18.960 --> 00:25:22.960
off the excess heat to prevent the palace from melting,

411
00:25:24.200 --> 00:25:27.319
the same principle as the igloo actually accepts.

412
00:25:28.119 --> 00:25:33.000
As you can see, my palace is somewhat larger. And

413
00:25:34.720 --> 00:25:37.319
is it you who's responsible for everything that's been happening?

414
00:25:38.039 --> 00:25:42.640
If you are referring to the abrupt disappearance of one

415
00:25:42.799 --> 00:25:44.920
or two other large bodies.

416
00:25:44.559 --> 00:25:50.440
Of ice, yes, how how did you do it?

417
00:25:51.640 --> 00:25:51.839
Come?

418
00:25:53.359 --> 00:25:54.119
I will show you.

419
00:26:00.599 --> 00:26:04.640
You see before you the work of a lifetime that

420
00:26:04.839 --> 00:26:07.920
just looks like a telescope. How could this melt an

421
00:26:07.960 --> 00:26:09.519
iceberg twenty miles long?

422
00:26:09.759 --> 00:26:14.039
It cannot? And what you are looking at is a

423
00:26:14.160 --> 00:26:15.799
machine which, working on.

424
00:26:15.880 --> 00:26:19.799
A laser principle, has the capacity to do nothing less

425
00:26:19.960 --> 00:26:23.720
than neutralize the Earth's protective magnetic field.

426
00:26:25.559 --> 00:26:28.960
Do you follow me? I'm not sure.

427
00:26:29.160 --> 00:26:32.519
The sun bombards are stately with ultra violet rays of

428
00:26:32.640 --> 00:26:36.880
such intensity they would burn our planet to a crisp

429
00:26:37.599 --> 00:26:41.079
were it not for the ozone in the stratosphere. On

430
00:26:41.200 --> 00:26:44.839
the normal conditions, ozone is produced continuously by the action

431
00:26:45.000 --> 00:26:50.400
of solar ultraviolet radiation on the oxygen in the air.

432
00:26:51.720 --> 00:26:55.359
This machine arrests that process.

433
00:26:56.519 --> 00:26:59.759
You mean, it just opens holes in the atmosphere, and

434
00:27:00.839 --> 00:27:05.599
deadly alta viata radiation passed through one dilutic precisely are

435
00:27:05.680 --> 00:27:11.160
raised strike the Earth at temperatures of several thousand degrees.

436
00:27:12.880 --> 00:27:16.079
So that's what happened to the almonds and iceberg.

437
00:27:16.160 --> 00:27:18.720
Yes, yes, I was testing the width of the hole.

438
00:27:18.839 --> 00:27:22.640
I could open twenty miles, but I can.

439
00:27:22.559 --> 00:27:25.039
Also adjust it down to a point with a diameter

440
00:27:25.200 --> 00:27:28.000
of no more than two inches.

441
00:27:28.799 --> 00:27:31.920
And that's what happened to Wind. It flew right into

442
00:27:31.960 --> 00:27:35.880
the line of ultrava radiation and was burned to a

443
00:27:36.079 --> 00:27:43.599
crisp So it was you who killed the h Wow.

444
00:27:44.519 --> 00:27:49.079
One of my minor inventions. This small gun. It freezes

445
00:27:49.279 --> 00:27:53.480
snow into ice. You tried to hit me. I simply

446
00:27:53.599 --> 00:27:54.119
fired it.

447
00:27:54.240 --> 00:27:57.680
At your feet and you lost your balance.

448
00:27:58.480 --> 00:28:05.680
Quiet, gods who control this man on Tempra, I am

449
00:28:05.759 --> 00:28:09.160
not entirely alone, but the purpose.

450
00:28:08.839 --> 00:28:11.440
Of as what you have witnessed for the final tests

451
00:28:11.480 --> 00:28:14.559
of my machine, I've merely been waiting for the sun

452
00:28:14.640 --> 00:28:17.920
to move up into the northern hemisphere. Tomorrow I shall

453
00:28:17.960 --> 00:28:22.839
begin to systematically melt the polar ice cap.

454
00:28:23.480 --> 00:28:28.799
If you're mad, we are all mad. But why why?

455
00:28:30.160 --> 00:28:33.480
Because it's a challenge, because I don't want others to

456
00:28:33.640 --> 00:28:38.680
control my destiny. Because the world needs a good cleansing periodically.

457
00:28:40.119 --> 00:28:46.519
Take your pick. Reasons are cheap. I don't deal in reasons.

458
00:28:47.799 --> 00:28:51.640
But what is it you want? I make no demands.

459
00:28:52.680 --> 00:28:57.279
This is not a petty case of international terrorist extortion.

460
00:28:58.839 --> 00:29:02.480
I will not be bought. As soon as a person.

461
00:29:02.319 --> 00:29:06.839
Makes demands, he makes himself vulnerable, and I intend to

462
00:29:06.960 --> 00:29:11.400
remain absolutely invincible.

463
00:29:12.240 --> 00:29:17.839
You're trying to flood the entire world? Yes, Why does

464
00:29:17.920 --> 00:29:18.839
that surprise you?

465
00:29:23.839 --> 00:29:28.880
Consider the seam trillions of tons of water released from

466
00:29:29.039 --> 00:29:36.440
frozen bondage in an tidal wave sweeping southward, Whole buildings

467
00:29:36.519 --> 00:29:41.839
toppled by their force, Entire cities drowned without warning. And

468
00:29:41.960 --> 00:29:45.839
when it is all only those few living in the

469
00:29:45.960 --> 00:29:50.519
highest mountains are still alive. And we can draw only

470
00:29:50.599 --> 00:29:55.680
one conclusion, literally and figuratively. At this moment, the madman

471
00:29:55.920 --> 00:29:59.519
Raven is sitting on top of the world. I shall

472
00:29:59.599 --> 00:30:07.960
return shortly with our final act. The Bible tells of

473
00:30:08.039 --> 00:30:12.400
a great flood, and the flood was forty days upon

474
00:30:12.480 --> 00:30:17.079
the earth, and the water's increased, and the waters prevailed

475
00:30:18.160 --> 00:30:21.920
all in whose nostrils was the breath of life died.

476
00:30:23.279 --> 00:30:27.200
This cataclysmic event was intended as a lesson and a warning,

477
00:30:27.920 --> 00:30:32.599
But today we tell ourselves it was only a parable. However,

478
00:30:32.759 --> 00:30:36.960
ancient texts from the Orient also record an inundation of

479
00:30:37.079 --> 00:30:42.640
the earth by water. So then, how improbable is our tale?

480
00:30:43.640 --> 00:30:46.920
Have we taken heed of the one? Do we lead

481
00:30:47.039 --> 00:30:49.720
better lives today than we once did?

482
00:30:50.119 --> 00:30:53.400
Braven? You can't be mad enough to think you will

483
00:30:53.440 --> 00:30:56.880
actually succeed? Can you? Of the contrary? Captain Gates?

484
00:30:57.519 --> 00:31:01.960
That is precisely why I shall succeed. When the sun

485
00:31:02.079 --> 00:31:03.839
rises tomorrow, I will turn on.

486
00:31:04.000 --> 00:31:07.920
My machine and I will feel what no man since

487
00:31:08.039 --> 00:31:11.319
the great conquerors of the past has felt, the total

488
00:31:11.440 --> 00:31:18.319
satisfaction of complete triumph. And you will be right beside

489
00:31:18.400 --> 00:31:22.240
me to witness the whole terrible scene.

490
00:31:30.240 --> 00:31:36.720
Oh Kidain Gates, Ah, can Gates? Are you all right?

491
00:31:37.680 --> 00:31:39.640
Core back? You're alive?

492
00:31:40.200 --> 00:31:43.440
Yes, he was the first to regain consciousness from our

493
00:31:43.599 --> 00:31:44.400
mutual fault.

494
00:31:45.559 --> 00:31:49.400
Did you meet that guy, Raven? Oh? Yes, he's crazy,

495
00:31:49.799 --> 00:31:53.480
he's stark, raving mad. Did you see that machine?

496
00:31:53.799 --> 00:31:55.839
Yes? Yes, And then he brought me here.

497
00:31:58.160 --> 00:32:01.799
I see the water now, the ice and the floors

498
00:32:02.079 --> 00:32:02.799
packed snow.

499
00:32:03.000 --> 00:32:06.240
I have already examined the room with great care.

500
00:32:07.599 --> 00:32:08.640
What about the door?

501
00:32:09.160 --> 00:32:13.480
Could we could possibly be got away out? Yes? Well,

502
00:32:14.000 --> 00:32:16.960
but there is no chance of affecting such an escape

503
00:32:17.079 --> 00:32:18.799
in the short time left to us.

504
00:32:19.319 --> 00:32:21.920
And the only one who knows this location is Samak,

505
00:32:22.039 --> 00:32:25.240
and he has every reason to leave us near or

506
00:32:25.319 --> 00:32:26.759
die through through.

507
00:32:27.200 --> 00:32:31.559
He knows I can expose him to ridicule, and his

508
00:32:31.720 --> 00:32:36.559
business with this mad man is too profitable. Even if

509
00:32:36.599 --> 00:32:38.119
we could get out of this room, we wouldn't know

510
00:32:38.119 --> 00:32:41.640
how to escape. Is ice palaces like a labyrinth? Would

511
00:32:41.720 --> 00:32:47.000
you like some fish? Since there is nothing we can do,

512
00:32:48.200 --> 00:32:49.240
you might as well eat?

513
00:32:50.400 --> 00:32:51.079
Where did you get that?

514
00:32:51.759 --> 00:32:54.319
One of the guards brought it to me. He will

515
00:32:54.440 --> 00:32:57.559
probably bring you one do in time. But I had

516
00:32:57.640 --> 00:33:00.960
my faate, so eat the rest of my And if you're.

517
00:33:00.880 --> 00:33:08.400
Honely, no thanks, that's well, it's not even forget it.

518
00:33:10.240 --> 00:33:13.920
See how the orders from this fish collects on the plate.

519
00:33:15.720 --> 00:33:17.480
And I think of what that man did to win

520
00:33:18.319 --> 00:33:20.240
from here we are helpless.

521
00:33:20.440 --> 00:33:25.400
I wonder ifs to live. Yes, good, I did not

522
00:33:25.559 --> 00:33:29.839
lose it when we fell one else piece it up blamed.

523
00:33:30.640 --> 00:33:34.160
Give me some of the fridge from your PoCA quickly.

524
00:33:34.839 --> 00:33:37.359
The guard will be coming any minute with your food.

525
00:33:37.720 --> 00:33:38.960
It would be our last chance.

526
00:33:39.920 --> 00:33:42.480
Okay, okay, here what we want us for?

527
00:33:42.759 --> 00:33:45.519
You listen at the door for his footsteps. While I

528
00:33:45.759 --> 00:33:46.599
tried to start the.

529
00:33:46.680 --> 00:33:56.519
Fire fire, Hey, you're getting sposhed a pile of bread.

530
00:33:56.559 --> 00:33:57.400
That's beginning smooth.

531
00:33:57.559 --> 00:34:01.920
Yes, now we let it build. Wish some more threads here?

532
00:34:02.440 --> 00:34:05.559
And what can you do with the fire like that?

533
00:34:05.680 --> 00:34:07.759
I mean it's it's not to mount the walls?

534
00:34:08.239 --> 00:34:08.599
Is now?

535
00:34:08.719 --> 00:34:12.000
He takes the oil and spread it very carefully under

536
00:34:12.000 --> 00:34:17.239
the floor by the door, and now transferred the fire there.

537
00:34:18.480 --> 00:34:22.239
Oh now, now we let the fire burn itself out?

538
00:34:23.880 --> 00:34:24.639
What good does that do?

539
00:34:25.480 --> 00:34:25.679
Yeah?

540
00:34:25.719 --> 00:34:29.599
You see the American snow around the door, and so

541
00:34:30.199 --> 00:34:31.039
which will.

542
00:34:31.000 --> 00:34:34.000
Now if the guard does not come right away?

543
00:34:34.719 --> 00:34:36.000
Freeze to ice.

544
00:34:41.599 --> 00:34:45.519
Here comes the guard now five away from the door.

545
00:34:46.199 --> 00:34:53.360
I have food, but I have arm. Gets back. Here

546
00:34:53.519 --> 00:34:54.639
is some food water.

547
00:34:55.280 --> 00:34:59.800
Now I've gotta come back. Give me the gun back.

548
00:35:00.639 --> 00:35:01.519
Will you come.

549
00:35:03.599 --> 00:35:04.800
Anyone else in the passageway?

550
00:35:04.920 --> 00:35:04.960
No?

551
00:35:05.800 --> 00:35:07.599
All right. The next question is how to get at us?

552
00:35:07.960 --> 00:35:11.639
Without this man to guide us, we will have to

553
00:35:11.719 --> 00:35:12.639
find our own way.

554
00:35:18.320 --> 00:35:21.559
All these passages look the same, and we're.

555
00:35:21.480 --> 00:35:24.599
Just going around in circles that God's gonna come to

556
00:35:24.719 --> 00:35:25.400
and give you alarm.

557
00:35:25.719 --> 00:35:29.599
Look here the gods fresh snow in the grooves of

558
00:35:29.719 --> 00:35:34.159
these bootprints. Hey, if we follow them, perhaps they will

559
00:35:34.239 --> 00:35:34.800
lead us to.

560
00:35:34.880 --> 00:35:36.599
The way out there.

561
00:35:38.440 --> 00:35:39.199
There's a stairway.

562
00:35:40.960 --> 00:35:41.719
We've made us.

563
00:35:47.239 --> 00:35:50.199
Chrisp Fresh forty below zero are and never felt so good.

564
00:35:50.480 --> 00:35:53.280
Quickly, let us get back to the radio and contact

565
00:35:53.360 --> 00:35:54.519
the base to the.

566
00:35:54.559 --> 00:35:57.679
Pre's one thing, you know. They won't be able to

567
00:35:57.719 --> 00:36:00.840
rescue us. And Raven was trying a plane, will Chris?

568
00:36:01.000 --> 00:36:03.639
They try to send in all colonels have to be

569
00:36:03.679 --> 00:36:05.320
able to do it in order down every missile we

570
00:36:05.400 --> 00:36:07.000
got and obliterate this entire area.

571
00:36:07.000 --> 00:36:10.239
And I understand it means we must die.

572
00:36:11.559 --> 00:36:12.599
So what are we waiting for?

573
00:36:13.480 --> 00:36:17.000
This man must be stopped. Let's skip to the radio.

574
00:36:23.880 --> 00:36:28.159
No, no, you know there's snow in front of like nothing.

575
00:36:29.480 --> 00:36:32.079
Da must have discovered our escape and turned on a machine.

576
00:36:32.400 --> 00:36:33.440
He's coming toward us.

577
00:36:33.679 --> 00:36:36.559
Good quickly got the conductions.

578
00:36:37.159 --> 00:36:37.679
We cannot.

579
00:36:38.960 --> 00:36:43.159
I cool, he's getting us. I cannot.

580
00:36:44.119 --> 00:36:45.159
There's only one thing to do.

581
00:36:46.239 --> 00:36:47.719
If we can make it to the ground over the

582
00:36:47.800 --> 00:36:52.800
ice palace, we'll be saying, come on, tell us we're there.

583
00:36:54.480 --> 00:36:56.960
Oh we made.

584
00:36:58.519 --> 00:37:02.480
The melting, stopped up raven camping the alphable raise any

585
00:37:02.559 --> 00:37:04.639
closely without destroying himself too.

586
00:37:05.039 --> 00:37:08.559
Very clever, Captain Gates might congratulations.

587
00:37:09.840 --> 00:37:12.519
I know you've taken my God's weapons, so I will

588
00:37:12.599 --> 00:37:15.159
not risk sending anyone up after you.

589
00:37:16.639 --> 00:37:20.800
But I don't think that will be necessary. H Well,

590
00:37:20.880 --> 00:37:23.280
I mean your retreat has been.

591
00:37:23.320 --> 00:37:27.000
Cut off, and now I show you melt the ice

592
00:37:27.159 --> 00:37:31.519
over all the waters connecting us to the land top

593
00:37:31.639 --> 00:37:35.719
of here. And then, Captain Gates, I'm going to forget

594
00:37:35.760 --> 00:37:39.719
about you and get a decent night's rest.

595
00:37:40.000 --> 00:37:53.280
I have a busy day tomorrow. It's getting cold.

596
00:37:54.440 --> 00:37:55.760
Think there would be another.

597
00:37:57.159 --> 00:37:59.480
Worry losing the feeling in my legs.

598
00:38:00.280 --> 00:38:03.360
He says that it's the very peaceful the way to go.

599
00:38:04.239 --> 00:38:06.440
The numbness creep towards the heart.

600
00:38:06.800 --> 00:38:11.199
And used to be off the sleep, you know, least

601
00:38:11.920 --> 00:38:15.880
even they might evening today, you see the northern lights

602
00:38:16.039 --> 00:38:17.480
they come out to done for us.

603
00:38:18.079 --> 00:38:19.119
Now that's the.

604
00:38:19.199 --> 00:38:22.679
Norman light, and you know it's just the hairst time

605
00:38:22.760 --> 00:38:23.599
I've ever seen them.

606
00:38:24.920 --> 00:38:29.440
You say it is the ghost done. They depart in

607
00:38:29.519 --> 00:38:33.199
the worthiness the way a minute that can't be the

608
00:38:33.280 --> 00:38:37.880
norm of light? Why not? Because but fay think south?

609
00:38:39.239 --> 00:38:39.440
Yeah?

610
00:38:40.360 --> 00:38:44.559
My eyes what they used to be? But then what

611
00:38:44.880 --> 00:38:45.079
is it?

612
00:38:45.760 --> 00:38:50.159
It's it's a flashing light and someone sending a signal.

613
00:38:50.679 --> 00:38:52.079
Can you see? You know?

614
00:38:54.159 --> 00:38:57.920
Not too dark and they're too far away. It's only

615
00:38:57.920 --> 00:38:59.119
there was some way to get there.

616
00:38:59.599 --> 00:39:02.760
Maybe can you rise guy?

617
00:39:03.760 --> 00:39:07.679
I think so? But how can we get their ice?

618
00:39:08.000 --> 00:39:11.599
Wos very quickly up here? It is just what he says,

619
00:39:11.599 --> 00:39:15.199
A already begun to reform over the waters. Who were

620
00:39:15.400 --> 00:39:17.000
raving melted it.

621
00:39:25.000 --> 00:39:28.639
Who will have to cross it? I not? I don't

622
00:39:28.760 --> 00:39:31.800
know if I'm gonna make it come back? My hand's

623
00:39:31.880 --> 00:39:36.519
gone on how to let's keep bothing. He's careful, kept

624
00:39:36.559 --> 00:39:37.199
us careful.

625
00:39:37.239 --> 00:39:41.480
Stretch out. It's getting can and halfway across the water.

626
00:39:42.559 --> 00:39:46.599
Is the light still flashing? Yes, but less and less?

627
00:39:47.760 --> 00:39:49.800
Whoever it is getting discouraged.

628
00:39:50.840 --> 00:39:56.280
We must try to miss that holiday. The ice is broken.

629
00:39:56.559 --> 00:39:59.920
Both stay flat on the stomach. We get all the

630
00:40:00.039 --> 00:40:03.440
you open it stick enough to stay afloat and damn,

631
00:40:04.840 --> 00:40:08.760
but the corner is coming over the top. It's freezing.

632
00:40:10.320 --> 00:40:11.639
What that it?

633
00:40:11.960 --> 00:40:14.320
It's a hortpoon? Can you reach it?

634
00:40:15.639 --> 00:40:16.119
I think so?

635
00:40:17.480 --> 00:40:18.719
Yes, got it.

636
00:40:18.920 --> 00:40:19.519
Hold fast.

637
00:40:19.760 --> 00:40:23.239
Whoever who was flushed in that light must have seen us. Hey,

638
00:40:23.960 --> 00:40:27.239
I can feel it toughing, the pulling us in. Hold

639
00:40:27.360 --> 00:40:28.760
on it starts, let's go.

640
00:40:29.960 --> 00:40:31.840
My hands are about thet the wall.

641
00:40:32.840 --> 00:40:35.360
What could this person bee?

642
00:40:35.519 --> 00:40:40.840
It's one of Raven's men, cutting captain case.

643
00:40:41.239 --> 00:40:43.760
It is stomach shover.

644
00:40:45.320 --> 00:40:46.199
You've gotta.

645
00:40:47.480 --> 00:40:58.199
Keep pulay. As I was heading back to the visits, I.

646
00:40:58.280 --> 00:41:01.320
Began to think, who that steal the food of my

647
00:41:01.400 --> 00:41:03.480
neighbors to sell to a man.

648
00:41:03.639 --> 00:41:04.760
I have never seen.

649
00:41:05.679 --> 00:41:09.239
He began to ask questions yes, and suddenly the.

650
00:41:09.239 --> 00:41:12.119
Money he was paying me did not seem next so much.

651
00:41:12.639 --> 00:41:15.760
You know, USh would have to tell the others that

652
00:41:15.920 --> 00:41:18.119
it was you who read it theer cushion.

653
00:41:18.679 --> 00:41:21.719
It was a temptation to leave you there quuraback and

654
00:41:21.920 --> 00:41:25.039
try to keep the truth hidden, that you are a

655
00:41:25.239 --> 00:41:28.280
tough old crow, and I knew you would manage to

656
00:41:28.360 --> 00:41:31.880
return somehow, So it might as well be in my book,

657
00:41:32.320 --> 00:41:35.159
And that too, I will tell the others.

658
00:41:36.599 --> 00:41:39.639
Almost Sean saanich hal.

659
00:41:39.599 --> 00:41:43.239
Close our way to the base. Look you can see

660
00:41:43.280 --> 00:41:44.320
the vice now.

661
00:41:54.800 --> 00:41:58.400
Joe, it's got to see you and Klabac alive. His

662
00:41:58.719 --> 00:42:01.119
right clothes feel great, what's happening?

663
00:42:01.719 --> 00:42:04.239
Do you know that you two were responsible for a

664
00:42:04.360 --> 00:42:05.199
military first?

665
00:42:06.199 --> 00:42:08.800
Russia and the United States have joined together and are

666
00:42:08.800 --> 00:42:11.840
sending in little from all directions simultaneously.

667
00:42:12.519 --> 00:42:13.880
This Raven fellow.

668
00:42:13.639 --> 00:42:14.440
Will never be able to.

669
00:42:14.519 --> 00:42:16.719
Fend them all off, even with that machine of his.

670
00:42:18.880 --> 00:42:21.360
Joe, What are you thinking.

671
00:42:22.639 --> 00:42:23.239
And thinking of?

672
00:42:23.400 --> 00:42:26.920
When Colonel in a terrible way in which he died

673
00:42:28.440 --> 00:42:34.079
as I know, you're a good man and a good officer. Gentlemen,

674
00:42:34.840 --> 00:42:37.119
look here out of the window.

675
00:42:39.239 --> 00:42:39.800
Sunrise.

676
00:42:40.599 --> 00:42:44.239
A few hours ago we thought we would never live

677
00:42:44.519 --> 00:42:48.159
to see it. And I think I speak for all

678
00:42:48.239 --> 00:42:51.440
of us when I say that that is the most

679
00:42:51.559 --> 00:43:00.480
beautiful sunrise I've ever seen. There's a story worry about

680
00:43:00.519 --> 00:43:03.159
a certain confident candidate for the presidency.

681
00:43:03.960 --> 00:43:07.360
He retired early on election. He sure that he won.

682
00:43:08.320 --> 00:43:10.840
In the morning, a gentleman called, only to be told

683
00:43:10.880 --> 00:43:15.079
by the candidate equally arrogant. Son, I'm sorry the president

684
00:43:15.159 --> 00:43:19.840
can't see he's still asleep, well, replied the caller. When

685
00:43:19.880 --> 00:43:23.599
he wakes up, you can tell him he isn't president anymore.

686
00:43:24.920 --> 00:43:29.280
Raven too made the mistake of retiring too early. I

687
00:43:29.360 --> 00:43:30.559
shall return shortly.

688
00:43:33.400 --> 00:43:36.760
A Queen of Sheba put a riddle to the wise Solomon,

689
00:43:37.719 --> 00:43:42.119
what land has seen the sun but once since the

690
00:43:42.199 --> 00:43:47.320
creation of the world. Solomon answered, the land beneath the

691
00:43:47.440 --> 00:43:51.159
red Sea, for it saw the sun only on the

692
00:43:51.320 --> 00:43:53.000
day God parted.

693
00:43:52.679 --> 00:43:55.119
The waters for the children of Israel.

694
00:43:56.559 --> 00:43:59.800
A great deal of land almost saw the sun for

695
00:43:59.880 --> 00:44:02.239
the last time in our story.

696
00:44:02.320 --> 00:44:02.639
Today.

697
00:44:03.920 --> 00:44:07.199
Our cast included Tony Roberts, Earl Hammond, Arnold Moss, and

698
00:44:07.280 --> 00:44:11.039
Ian Martin. The entire production was under the direction of

699
00:44:11.159 --> 00:44:11.920
Hymond Brown.

700
00:44:13.159 --> 00:45:03.559
Until next time, pleasant, Well.

701
00:45:03.519 --> 00:45:07.400
My dear, if that hasn't chilled you all the way

702
00:45:07.519 --> 00:45:14.119
to your core, well just wait. The wind is gusting

703
00:45:14.360 --> 00:45:19.000
harder by the second, and yes, it is getting later

704
00:45:19.719 --> 00:45:23.800
and later, but I feel the peak has yet to

705
00:45:23.920 --> 00:45:28.119
be reached. Give it a little more time, I suppose,

706
00:45:28.920 --> 00:45:36.480
and perhaps you'll see something really surprising, maybe even shocking,

707
00:45:38.199 --> 00:45:43.880
Because as we all know, death has a cold breath.

708
00:46:00.119 --> 00:46:00.360
Yeah.

709
00:46:05.440 --> 00:46:10.599
A Mutual Broadcasting System presents the Mysterious Traveler, written produced

710
00:46:10.639 --> 00:46:14.360
and directed by Robert A. Arthur and David Cogan, and

711
00:46:14.639 --> 00:46:19.079
starring tonight two of radio's outstanding personalities, Frank Reddick and

712
00:46:19.400 --> 00:46:24.039
Jan Miner, in an original play titled Death as a Cold.

713
00:46:23.840 --> 00:46:31.760
Breath This is the mysterious Traveler inviting you to join

714
00:46:31.880 --> 00:46:35.199
me on another journey into the realm of the strange

715
00:46:35.320 --> 00:46:38.719
and the terrifying. I hope you will enjoy the trip,

716
00:46:39.280 --> 00:46:41.719
and it will thrill you a little and chill you

717
00:46:41.840 --> 00:46:46.760
a little as we discover that death has a cold breath.

718
00:46:53.000 --> 00:46:56.199
Your name is Andy Marlowe. Once you are a very

719
00:46:56.320 --> 00:47:00.440
successful publicity agent. But this morning, as you sloud behind

720
00:47:00.519 --> 00:47:05.239
your big mahogany desk, you feel terrible. You're nursing a hangover,

721
00:47:06.079 --> 00:47:09.199
You're worrying about the io ewes you've been passing out

722
00:47:09.239 --> 00:47:13.239
the last few months to certain rather tough individuals who

723
00:47:13.840 --> 00:47:20.519
run gambling houses. You're slipping, slipping fast. Your bank roll

724
00:47:20.639 --> 00:47:24.079
is gone. Your girl Julie, who's just as hard and

725
00:47:24.199 --> 00:47:28.119
beautiful as the diamond she loves to wear, is looking

726
00:47:28.159 --> 00:47:32.519
for greener pastures, and you're on the skids unless you

727
00:47:32.599 --> 00:47:35.920
come up with a smart idea. You stare at your

728
00:47:35.960 --> 00:47:40.360
appointment pad with bleary eyes. The first name on it

729
00:47:40.559 --> 00:47:46.480
is Harold Farrington. Harold Farrington, the matinee idol of twenty

730
00:47:46.599 --> 00:47:51.000
years back. Now as a has been ham you almost

731
00:47:51.039 --> 00:47:54.519
tell your assistant to send him away, but you change

732
00:47:54.599 --> 00:47:56.400
your mind and have him send.

733
00:47:56.280 --> 00:48:00.199
In Andy and your boy.

734
00:48:00.280 --> 00:48:03.079
You're looking splendid and I just got back from Florida.

735
00:48:03.559 --> 00:48:06.519
Could I drop in and say hello? Sit down, Harold,

736
00:48:06.599 --> 00:48:09.000
cut out the hot air. You haven't the price of

737
00:48:09.039 --> 00:48:11.280
a trip to South Jersey much less Florida than.

738
00:48:11.239 --> 00:48:15.639
I know it. You're always bluff and direct. Andy. Let's

739
00:48:15.679 --> 00:48:16.920
say what I like about you.

740
00:48:17.800 --> 00:48:22.599
Yes, it's embarrassing to admit it, but I am financially substandard.

741
00:48:21.920 --> 00:48:24.800
At the moment. If it's a touch Harold, the answer

742
00:48:25.000 --> 00:48:25.239
is no.

743
00:48:25.639 --> 00:48:28.119
I wouldn't dream of asking you for a loan. Andy.

744
00:48:28.239 --> 00:48:31.440
I want to retain you, to enlist your services to

745
00:48:31.480 --> 00:48:33.519
put me once again on the front pages.

746
00:48:34.199 --> 00:48:35.960
Remember six months ago you.

747
00:48:36.119 --> 00:48:38.559
Dreamed up that idea of a national theater that I

748
00:48:38.639 --> 00:48:41.239
hoped to found that got me nice headlines.

749
00:48:41.320 --> 00:48:43.440
Andy, Yes, he didn't get a job out of it.

750
00:48:44.760 --> 00:48:46.400
I'm going to be frank with you, Harold.

751
00:48:46.639 --> 00:48:49.920
Of course, old man, of course, the only way you'll

752
00:48:49.960 --> 00:48:52.800
ever work on Broadway again is to get a job

753
00:48:52.880 --> 00:48:58.519
in the street cleaning department. Andy, But I know you're

754
00:48:58.559 --> 00:49:02.239
only joking. Just remaind the publica of me, and the

755
00:49:02.280 --> 00:49:05.480
women will clamor to see me again. Ever always had

756
00:49:05.519 --> 00:49:06.440
success with the women.

757
00:49:06.480 --> 00:49:06.679
You know.

758
00:49:06.840 --> 00:49:07.679
The answer is no.

759
00:49:07.960 --> 00:49:09.800
I like to get paid for my services, but.

760
00:49:09.880 --> 00:49:13.800
You will end six months ago for your last campaign

761
00:49:13.880 --> 00:49:17.440
I made you sold beneficiary in my will you'll collect

762
00:49:17.519 --> 00:49:18.480
when I died.

763
00:49:18.400 --> 00:49:21.119
Sold Bene Fisher and you're well, what a laugh?

764
00:49:21.880 --> 00:49:24.199
I think I felt for your line about having trust

765
00:49:24.320 --> 00:49:27.800
funds that would pay off when you died. Checked up later.

766
00:49:28.559 --> 00:49:30.639
You don't even own a spare suit of clothes. Hey,

767
00:49:30.760 --> 00:49:35.199
admit a exaggerated a confessional. That's mighty white of you. However,

768
00:49:35.639 --> 00:49:39.039
this might interest you. A letter that was forwarded to

769
00:49:39.159 --> 00:49:43.639
me last week. Read what it says, six pages and

770
00:49:43.719 --> 00:49:48.920
a woman's handwriting, wreeking with guarding your perfume, poie. It's

771
00:49:49.000 --> 00:49:52.400
from a wealthy widow in Boston. It's twenty five years ago.

772
00:49:52.559 --> 00:49:55.960
She was an admirer of mine. Her name is Ebbie Winson,

773
00:49:56.199 --> 00:49:59.039
missus Ebbie Winston, and she's worth half a million dollars.

774
00:49:59.239 --> 00:50:02.480
Harold you me, So does missus Abbe Wilson. Now get

775
00:50:02.519 --> 00:50:03.280
to the point, will you.

776
00:50:03.440 --> 00:50:05.519
I am Andy, she's.

777
00:50:05.400 --> 00:50:09.480
Ill, slowly dying, and having read about my plan to

778
00:50:09.599 --> 00:50:12.280
start a theater which I would run in the interests

779
00:50:12.320 --> 00:50:15.360
of a free on Trammel stage. She decided to make

780
00:50:15.400 --> 00:50:18.280
the dream possible by leaving me all her money when

781
00:50:18.360 --> 00:50:18.960
she dies.

782
00:50:19.840 --> 00:50:22.960
Don't you see, Andy, the will of mine is now worth.

783
00:50:22.840 --> 00:50:26.519
Something When missus Abbie Wilson dies, I'm a rich man,

784
00:50:26.719 --> 00:50:29.480
pipe dreams Harold. She's probably a crackpot and an old

785
00:50:29.519 --> 00:50:32.519
ladies home. And to show you what I think of

786
00:50:32.599 --> 00:50:35.079
your will in which I'm sole beneficiary.

787
00:50:35.679 --> 00:50:37.920
And let's see, you know have been this drawer?

788
00:50:38.039 --> 00:50:38.199
Here?

789
00:50:39.719 --> 00:50:39.920
Yeah?

790
00:50:40.440 --> 00:50:47.039
He here it is now watch Harold. There there's your

791
00:50:47.159 --> 00:50:50.840
precious well where belongs in the wastebasket. Now get out

792
00:50:50.880 --> 00:50:56.719
of here, your husband, I'm busy. Your exasperation finally has

793
00:50:56.719 --> 00:50:57.599
gotten the better of you.

794
00:50:57.719 --> 00:51:03.519
Andy. You kick her out then, feeling worse than ever,

795
00:51:03.880 --> 00:51:07.800
you slump in your chair again. You're still slouched there.

796
00:51:07.840 --> 00:51:17.280
Half an hour later when the telephone rings. Hello, Hello Darling, Oh,

797
00:51:18.079 --> 00:51:18.880
hell hello Julie.

798
00:51:19.000 --> 00:51:21.719
My wonder boy sounds as if he had a hangover

799
00:51:21.800 --> 00:51:22.320
this morning.

800
00:51:22.519 --> 00:51:24.719
Oh I'm all right, just catching a little coll that's on.

801
00:51:25.320 --> 00:51:27.840
Oh then you'll probably be glad to have me break

802
00:51:27.920 --> 00:51:29.000
our date for the night.

803
00:51:29.400 --> 00:51:30.039
Break our date.

804
00:51:30.480 --> 00:51:32.960
Yes, I won't be able to make it tonight, Andy,

805
00:51:33.599 --> 00:51:34.760
So sorry.

806
00:51:34.639 --> 00:51:36.760
Why won't you be able to make it. I've had

807
00:51:36.800 --> 00:51:37.679
those tickets for weeks.

808
00:51:37.880 --> 00:51:40.559
I'm flying out to the coast at midnight, Sweetheart.

809
00:51:41.119 --> 00:51:44.320
Bill Wentworth is throwing a really big house party and

810
00:51:44.400 --> 00:51:46.119
then a cruise on his yacht afterwards.

811
00:51:46.159 --> 00:51:49.920
One He phoned last night to invite me, and I accepted.

812
00:51:50.159 --> 00:51:53.280
Julie, you can't walk out of me like this just

813
00:51:53.360 --> 00:51:55.599
because Wentworth has money and you have charm.

814
00:51:55.719 --> 00:51:59.079
Andy, But the charm's been wearing a little thin lately,

815
00:51:59.800 --> 00:52:03.280
and so has your bank roll. So goodbye, Darling.

816
00:52:04.320 --> 00:52:05.400
Do you wrong, Julie?

817
00:52:05.440 --> 00:52:12.599
Wait, I boy, little gold diggers. I'll get another bank

818
00:52:12.719 --> 00:52:15.079
roller somehow. And she'd come running back.

819
00:52:15.440 --> 00:52:16.400
And I know, Julie.

820
00:52:18.639 --> 00:52:21.840
For a moment, Andy, you daydream about being rich again.

821
00:52:22.719 --> 00:52:25.079
But you're rudely interrupted by the sound of an argument

822
00:52:25.159 --> 00:52:27.039
outside and your office door opened.

823
00:52:27.559 --> 00:52:30.880
Hello Mallow, Your office boy didn't want to let me in,

824
00:52:31.039 --> 00:52:32.960
but I was sweating to my head business with you.

825
00:52:33.960 --> 00:52:38.039
Hello Rocky, I'm glad you dropped in. I've been planning

826
00:52:38.079 --> 00:52:39.679
to get in touch with you. I've got a big

827
00:52:39.760 --> 00:52:42.039
deal in the fire. Yeah, you're gonna get a big

828
00:52:42.119 --> 00:52:42.599
fee out of it.

829
00:52:42.920 --> 00:52:45.199
I hope you're doing Andy for your sake, So.

830
00:52:46.039 --> 00:52:48.400
Rocky, I just wanted to ask you I could just

831
00:52:48.800 --> 00:52:51.199
wait a few days, and as I are yours, I'll

832
00:52:51.239 --> 00:52:51.960
really be flesh.

833
00:52:52.559 --> 00:52:57.039
Nobody ever said Rocky Smith wasn't a reasonable man? That's

834
00:52:57.119 --> 00:52:58.400
your idea of a few days?

835
00:52:59.199 --> 00:53:02.400
Well, naturally, I don't get my fee until my client

836
00:53:02.480 --> 00:53:06.480
begins to see himself in the headlines. Well, how about

837
00:53:07.320 --> 00:53:08.559
sixty days, Rocky.

838
00:53:09.639 --> 00:53:13.360
Because I never got past the eighth grade, marlow But

839
00:53:13.559 --> 00:53:15.840
sixty seems to me considerably more than a few.

840
00:53:17.000 --> 00:53:23.599
I'll let you have three days and that's all. When

841
00:53:23.639 --> 00:53:28.159
he's gone, you hastily pour yourself a drink. Andy. Just

842
00:53:28.239 --> 00:53:31.920
then your telephone rings. You let it drn What can

843
00:53:31.960 --> 00:53:36.880
it be but more bad news? Finally, that ringing gets

844
00:53:36.920 --> 00:53:37.599
on your nerves.

845
00:53:38.000 --> 00:53:38.599
You answer it.

846
00:53:39.440 --> 00:53:43.400
Hello. Hello, is this mister Andrew Marlowe. Yes, this is

847
00:53:43.480 --> 00:53:46.800
marlow speaking. Well, my name is Phelps, mister Marlowe, I'm

848
00:53:46.880 --> 00:53:51.320
calling from Boston. Yes, yes, mister Phelps. Well, mister Marlowe,

849
00:53:51.400 --> 00:53:55.480
I'm very anxious to contact mister Harold Farrington. I believe

850
00:53:55.519 --> 00:53:58.679
he's a client of yours. Well, you could call it that. Yeah,

851
00:53:58.719 --> 00:54:01.920
he was here about half an hour ago. Well, can

852
00:54:02.000 --> 00:54:05.480
you possibly locate him for me, mister Marlow. It's rather important.

853
00:54:06.000 --> 00:54:08.719
You see, I represent the estate of the late missus

854
00:54:08.800 --> 00:54:09.519
Abby Wilson.

855
00:54:09.559 --> 00:54:14.360
I mag wait a minute, did you say the estate

856
00:54:14.840 --> 00:54:16.599
of the late missus Abbey Wilson.

857
00:54:16.679 --> 00:54:20.159
Well, yes, mister Marlow. Missus Wilson died day before yesterday,

858
00:54:20.880 --> 00:54:23.719
and it appears that her new will leaves everything she

859
00:54:23.880 --> 00:54:26.960
owns to mister Farrington. I believe she was once an

860
00:54:26.960 --> 00:54:27.599
admirer of his.

861
00:54:27.800 --> 00:54:30.880
Oh, yes, yes, I know all about that, mister Phelps.

862
00:54:31.320 --> 00:54:33.519
I'll tell you. I'll locate Harold for you. You just

863
00:54:33.840 --> 00:54:36.719
leave it to me. Well, I certainly appreciated mister Marlow.

864
00:54:36.800 --> 00:54:39.280
I'd like him here for the probating of the will.

865
00:54:39.880 --> 00:54:42.039
Of course, as soon as the news gets out, he.

866
00:54:42.079 --> 00:54:45.239
Goes on talking. You're not listening, Andy, Your mind is

867
00:54:45.280 --> 00:54:48.440
working like lightning. Now saw that crazy story of Harold's

868
00:54:48.440 --> 00:54:51.400
about a rich widow leaving him everything was true?

869
00:54:51.480 --> 00:54:54.199
That like a few you tore up Harold's will, making

870
00:54:54.280 --> 00:54:54.920
you his head.

871
00:54:55.599 --> 00:54:57.360
That must be some way.

872
00:54:59.119 --> 00:55:03.880
About them. He has a whole plan oneiration.

873
00:55:05.800 --> 00:55:07.320
Oh, mister Phelps, excuse me.

874
00:55:07.400 --> 00:55:11.360
Plays Yes, if you let me handle all the publicity,

875
00:55:11.480 --> 00:55:13.840
I can keep it dignified and still make it a

876
00:55:14.000 --> 00:55:16.159
valuable asset to mister Farrington's plan.

877
00:55:16.280 --> 00:55:19.119
Well, yes, I can understand that if if you see

878
00:55:19.159 --> 00:55:19.400
to it.

879
00:55:19.440 --> 00:55:22.360
That nobody else hears about this until you and me

880
00:55:22.639 --> 00:55:24.840
and mister Farrington can get together, I.

881
00:55:25.079 --> 00:55:27.920
Think that can be managed. Mister Morlow. Good good.

882
00:55:27.960 --> 00:55:30.440
Then I'm going to hang up now and find Farrington,

883
00:55:30.679 --> 00:55:33.719
and when I do, i'll phone you. So goodbye for now,

884
00:55:33.920 --> 00:55:37.920
mister Phelps, You hang up and snatch that torn up

885
00:55:37.960 --> 00:55:41.199
will from the waste basket. Carefully, you paste the torn

886
00:55:41.239 --> 00:55:44.239
will together with scotch tape. Then you set out to

887
00:55:44.320 --> 00:55:47.119
find Harrow Farrington. You try his rooming house first.

888
00:55:48.519 --> 00:55:49.679
Now, missus Faranken ain't in.

889
00:55:50.239 --> 00:55:51.679
I don't know where he is, and I don't care

890
00:55:52.119 --> 00:55:54.360
unless he comes back with a thirty five thousand dollars

891
00:55:54.480 --> 00:55:55.039
Randy oes me.

892
00:55:55.840 --> 00:55:58.400
You might try tim O'Sullivan's saloon around the corner.

893
00:55:58.800 --> 00:55:59.719
That's where it usually.

894
00:56:03.639 --> 00:56:06.280
You hurry to the corner saloon, but the actor is

895
00:56:06.320 --> 00:56:10.559
not there. Desperately perspiring in your anxiety, you try all

896
00:56:10.599 --> 00:56:14.880
the other local saloons. At last, you find him in

897
00:56:15.000 --> 00:56:17.639
a corner table in the cheapest bar of them all.

898
00:56:18.599 --> 00:56:21.880
You can see he's almost fined.

899
00:56:22.480 --> 00:56:27.360
Merely reritten my good old friend, Andy herold Ring. It's

900
00:56:27.880 --> 00:56:32.679
not good liquor, but it's cheap. This his great recommendations.

901
00:56:33.440 --> 00:56:36.920
I'm sorry, Harold, I can't right now. I've hunted you

902
00:56:37.039 --> 00:56:40.800
up to apologize. I was only joking this morning. I

903
00:56:41.000 --> 00:56:43.440
am going to put on a campaign for you. I'm

904
00:56:43.519 --> 00:56:46.320
going to get your name in all the papers. Well

905
00:56:46.639 --> 00:56:51.960
that's righty fin, and he calls for celebration. Waiter two more.

906
00:56:53.119 --> 00:56:56.760
You sit down, Andy, controlling your impatience, You bring out

907
00:56:56.800 --> 00:57:00.880
the damaged will and get Harold to initially eat horn section.

908
00:57:02.119 --> 00:57:04.800
Then you tell him about your publicity scheme for him.

909
00:57:06.199 --> 00:57:11.039
He is to disappear, you explain, after threatening to kill himself,

910
00:57:11.639 --> 00:57:13.360
threatened to kill myself.

911
00:57:13.440 --> 00:57:20.559
When to die to sleep? A chance to dream? Ay,

912
00:57:21.360 --> 00:57:25.280
there's the rub. We're in that sleep of death. What

913
00:57:25.599 --> 00:57:28.079
dreams may come when we.

914
00:57:28.159 --> 00:57:32.480
Have shuffled off this mortal coil must give us?

915
00:57:32.960 --> 00:57:35.400
Cause he shakes me.

916
00:57:35.559 --> 00:57:40.880
Andy, all right, sounds like a good scheme, Elie Kaprid.

917
00:57:42.960 --> 00:57:47.599
Your plan is working, Andy, working beautifully. You get Harold

918
00:57:47.639 --> 00:57:50.800
Farrington into the phone boat. You phone Ross of the

919
00:57:50.920 --> 00:57:53.760
Daily Ledger, and Farrington talks to him.

920
00:57:54.639 --> 00:58:00.239
Helloey Ross, this is Harold Parrington just wanted to tell

921
00:58:00.280 --> 00:58:03.599
you I'm going to play a big role soon in

922
00:58:03.840 --> 00:58:07.920
the tragedy of man. I'm going to play the corpse.

923
00:58:10.320 --> 00:58:13.280
When am I talking about? I'm just trying to tell you,

924
00:58:13.400 --> 00:58:17.239
old boy, your time has come purring down, the curtain

925
00:58:17.920 --> 00:58:21.679
going to end the little drama of Harold Ferrying.

926
00:58:23.039 --> 00:58:24.760
Hello, hey.

927
00:58:26.199 --> 00:58:29.280
Andy, how do you like that? He said I was

928
00:58:29.400 --> 00:58:30.800
drunk and he hung up?

929
00:58:32.280 --> 00:58:36.599
Yes, your scheme is working beautifully. You have Harold Farrington

930
00:58:36.719 --> 00:58:38.920
phone all the critics and tell him he's going to

931
00:58:39.039 --> 00:58:44.599
kill himself. But then Farrington collapses desperately. You realize you

932
00:58:44.719 --> 00:58:47.960
have to have help. You telephone Julie. You persuaded to

933
00:58:48.000 --> 00:58:51.559
bring her car and meet you. You show the will,

934
00:58:51.840 --> 00:58:53.519
tell her about missus Abby Wilson.

935
00:58:55.760 --> 00:58:58.920
Sureley, Julie, you understand if this well is legal, I'll

936
00:58:58.960 --> 00:58:59.960
come at a half a million dollar.

937
00:59:00.199 --> 00:59:01.679
So you understand that dolling?

938
00:59:02.639 --> 00:59:04.320
But just how are you going to collect?

939
00:59:05.039 --> 00:59:08.280
I mean, suppose dear Harold decides to stay alive and

940
00:59:08.400 --> 00:59:09.559
then changes his will.

941
00:59:09.679 --> 00:59:12.639
Yeah, he won't. I mean how long can he live

942
00:59:12.719 --> 00:59:13.440
drinking as he does?

943
00:59:14.000 --> 00:59:15.239
He's on his last legs.

944
00:59:16.159 --> 00:59:18.639
You mean you'll keep him supplied with free liquor until

945
00:59:18.679 --> 00:59:20.719
he obligingly drinks himself to death.

946
00:59:20.840 --> 00:59:22.519
Sandy Deer, Yeah, something like that.

947
00:59:23.239 --> 00:59:24.920
I haven't time to tell you the details now, but

948
00:59:25.559 --> 00:59:27.400
somebody has to get Harold and my cabin up in

949
00:59:27.400 --> 00:59:28.679
the woods and keep him hidden there.

950
00:59:29.079 --> 00:59:30.079
That's your job, Julie.

951
00:59:30.360 --> 00:59:32.840
Get him there, keep him there, and don't let anybody

952
00:59:32.920 --> 00:59:35.800
know he is there. Darling, for both our sakes, say

953
00:59:35.840 --> 00:59:36.239
you'll do it.

954
00:59:37.480 --> 00:59:42.400
Well means missing Bill Wentworth's party, But all right, I'll

955
00:59:42.440 --> 00:59:44.760
do it only Andy Dolling.

956
00:59:45.960 --> 00:59:48.559
This scheme of yours had better pay off.

957
00:59:50.840 --> 00:59:54.119
So that's taken care of him. Julie starts off for

958
00:59:54.199 --> 00:59:58.199
your secluded cabin in the mountains with Harold Farrington. You

959
00:59:58.320 --> 01:00:01.840
promised to join her the following night. Right the next morning,

960
01:00:02.280 --> 01:00:06.280
you get busy on the phone, ostensibly trying to trace Farrington,

961
01:00:07.320 --> 01:00:10.400
among others. You call your old friend, the theatrical critic

962
01:00:10.639 --> 01:00:14.880
Paul Milton. Yes, Paul, I am worried about Harold Farrington.

963
01:00:14.920 --> 01:00:17.920
It's no gag. I know he called you yesterday and

964
01:00:18.000 --> 01:00:20.159
trying to commit suicide, and I think he meant it.

965
01:00:21.119 --> 01:00:25.519
I'm really worried about him. Okay, I'll keep looking. See

966
01:00:25.559 --> 01:00:29.880
you soon, Paul, we'll have a drink together. Paul Milton's

967
01:00:29.880 --> 01:00:34.840
skepticism is typical and it's just what you want. Last

968
01:00:34.880 --> 01:00:37.840
of all, you call another old friend, Captain Harry Banning

969
01:00:38.320 --> 01:00:40.000
in the Bureau of Missing Persons.

970
01:00:40.679 --> 01:00:43.280
On Harry, I'm not trying to drum up a story.

971
01:00:43.880 --> 01:00:46.320
Farrington really is missing. I want you to put out

972
01:00:46.320 --> 01:00:49.639
a missing person's notice on Well, if that's the way

973
01:00:49.679 --> 01:00:51.199
you feel about it, I'll have to find him without

974
01:00:51.199 --> 01:00:52.119
any help from the police.

975
01:00:53.159 --> 01:00:59.280
You hang up, and you're pleased, Andy, very pleased. That evening,

976
01:00:59.360 --> 01:01:01.880
you catch the t for the little town of Ridge Gap,

977
01:01:02.039 --> 01:01:05.440
where your cabin is located. At the Ridge Gap Station.

978
01:01:05.800 --> 01:01:09.559
You slip away into the darkness without being noticed. It's

979
01:01:09.599 --> 01:01:12.920
bitterly cold, but you walk the two miles to your cabin.

980
01:01:13.599 --> 01:01:16.519
There you find Julie and Harold Farrington having a drink

981
01:01:16.559 --> 01:01:20.719
in the living room. After the necessary greetings, you waste

982
01:01:20.800 --> 01:01:22.639
no time in getting down the business.

983
01:01:23.000 --> 01:01:26.320
Well, kids, we're rolling. The editors are beginning to believe

984
01:01:26.360 --> 01:01:29.519
in your suicide, Harold, and and too sure that the

985
01:01:29.639 --> 01:01:33.440
suis said it's a good publicity angle. The more I think, Corse,

986
01:01:33.480 --> 01:01:35.840
it's a good angle in the jury, Why, of course

987
01:01:35.920 --> 01:01:38.599
it is Harold, why it'll get the critics to writing

988
01:01:38.719 --> 01:01:40.599
long appreciative articles about you.

989
01:01:41.159 --> 01:01:43.519
The kinds of thing the produces all noticed.

990
01:01:43.639 --> 01:01:47.239
Will maybe, but I still see, Harold, Harold, you hired

991
01:01:47.320 --> 01:01:50.119
me to do the thinking a listen, you write me

992
01:01:50.199 --> 01:01:51.719
a long letter of farewell.

993
01:01:52.000 --> 01:01:54.039
I understand literally farewell?

994
01:01:54.760 --> 01:01:57.599
Will I could do that with the quotations from my

995
01:01:57.760 --> 01:02:02.199
great Pleas Macbeth and not it, Harold. Yes, yes, I'll

996
01:02:02.239 --> 01:02:04.039
take the letter back to New York with me. I'll

997
01:02:04.119 --> 01:02:06.159
call all the critics. I'll get a couple of them

998
01:02:06.239 --> 01:02:08.760
to rush up here with me. Just before we get here,

999
01:02:09.119 --> 01:02:12.599
you take one sleeping tabn then pretend to be unable

1000
01:02:12.639 --> 01:02:15.000
to wake until we've worked over you for at least

1001
01:02:15.159 --> 01:02:15.679
half an hour.

1002
01:02:16.239 --> 01:02:19.239
You got it, year, Yes, of course I could do

1003
01:02:19.400 --> 01:02:22.480
that and look absolutely on the level. Tomorrow evening your

1004
01:02:22.559 --> 01:02:26.320
name will be headlines from coast to coast. Believe you're sure.

1005
01:02:26.840 --> 01:02:27.719
I'm positive.

1006
01:02:28.119 --> 01:02:29.840
Now sit out at my desk and start writing that

1007
01:02:29.920 --> 01:02:32.559
suicide note, and be sure to apologize to me for

1008
01:02:32.719 --> 01:02:33.480
using my cabin.

1009
01:02:33.840 --> 01:02:34.719
You understand, Harold.

1010
01:02:36.800 --> 01:02:40.159
You leave Harold Farrington busy writing the suicide letter, you

1011
01:02:40.239 --> 01:02:42.440
take Julie into the next room to tell her.

1012
01:02:42.400 --> 01:02:46.199
The rest of your plan, and as soon as he

1013
01:02:46.280 --> 01:02:51.800
finishes that letter, Harold's going to die. You understand that,

1014
01:02:51.920 --> 01:02:52.960
don't you, Julie die.

1015
01:02:53.840 --> 01:02:54.119
Andy.

1016
01:02:54.159 --> 01:02:55.719
You didn't say anything about that when you sent me

1017
01:02:55.840 --> 01:02:57.559
up here with him. I'm not going to have anything

1018
01:02:57.639 --> 01:02:58.360
to do with murder.

1019
01:02:58.440 --> 01:03:00.840
Carol will drink himself to death and another six months.

1020
01:03:01.280 --> 01:03:04.119
What difference does it make if he goes? Now means

1021
01:03:04.159 --> 01:03:06.519
half a million dollars to us, me and you. It's

1022
01:03:06.559 --> 01:03:09.719
perfectly safe by now. Half low York knows Harold was

1023
01:03:09.760 --> 01:03:12.119
threatening to kill himself. You go on to a marriage

1024
01:03:12.199 --> 01:03:14.880
persuading rich and when you want to be you can

1025
01:03:14.960 --> 01:03:19.000
be very very A few hours at last, Julie gives

1026
01:03:19.039 --> 01:03:19.719
into your scheme.

1027
01:03:20.079 --> 01:03:22.320
All right, Andy, I'll do it, but let's get it

1028
01:03:22.400 --> 01:03:23.360
over with quickly.

1029
01:03:26.880 --> 01:03:30.679
You go back into the living room. Harold has finished

1030
01:03:30.719 --> 01:03:33.880
writing his farewell to you in the world, and he's

1031
01:03:33.920 --> 01:03:36.960
reading it aloud with great self appreciation.

1032
01:03:37.519 --> 01:03:40.280
Out out brief candle.

1033
01:03:41.079 --> 01:03:45.639
Life's put a walking shadow, a poor player that struts

1034
01:03:45.719 --> 01:03:49.639
and frets his hour upon the stage and then is

1035
01:03:49.800 --> 01:03:51.119
heard no more.

1036
01:03:52.559 --> 01:03:55.840
Oh there you are, Andy, listen, I think this is

1037
01:03:55.960 --> 01:03:56.519
rather good.

1038
01:03:58.920 --> 01:04:01.400
He begins at the beginning and reads the whole letter

1039
01:04:01.480 --> 01:04:05.719
to you. It's what you want exactly as he reads,

1040
01:04:06.800 --> 01:04:09.719
You busy yourself, fixing him a drink, and into the

1041
01:04:09.760 --> 01:04:13.920
drink you pour the contents of a small bottle. Harold

1042
01:04:13.920 --> 01:04:17.519
Farrington finishes his letter and waits for your applause.

1043
01:04:18.360 --> 01:04:21.960
That splendid, Harold, simply terrific.

1044
01:04:22.800 --> 01:04:25.119
It nearly made me cry just listening to it.

1045
01:04:25.440 --> 01:04:28.840
I think without your modesty, one could say it's good theater.

1046
01:04:29.719 --> 01:04:31.199
Ooh is there to drink from me?

1047
01:04:31.360 --> 01:04:31.639
Andy?

1048
01:04:32.519 --> 01:04:34.800
Well, it isn't for anybody else, Harold.

1049
01:04:34.679 --> 01:04:36.840
Change you. I've earned this drink.

1050
01:04:37.360 --> 01:04:46.079
Well, he bottoms up, he drinks, and in five minutes

1051
01:04:46.400 --> 01:04:50.400
it's all over. For one last instant he stares at

1052
01:04:50.480 --> 01:04:54.280
you accusingly, then his eyes closed and he falls forward

1053
01:04:54.360 --> 01:04:55.159
on the desk.

1054
01:04:56.639 --> 01:04:57.119
Instead.

1055
01:04:58.159 --> 01:04:58.679
Perfectly.

1056
01:04:59.280 --> 01:05:02.280
Couldn't have worked out better an hour now, what Andy,

1057
01:05:03.039 --> 01:05:06.159
back to New York and come find him tomorrow or.

1058
01:05:06.159 --> 01:05:06.639
The next day.

1059
01:05:07.440 --> 01:05:08.760
It's all going to be settled tonight.

1060
01:05:09.000 --> 01:05:09.320
Tonight.

1061
01:05:09.440 --> 01:05:13.360
Yes, it's a very special reason why I owe some money.

1062
01:05:13.800 --> 01:05:15.360
But tomorrow I've got to be able to prove I

1063
01:05:15.400 --> 01:05:18.000
can pay for the inheritance. Now we're going to drive

1064
01:05:18.039 --> 01:05:20.639
to Ridgecap, have dinner and pretend we're on our way

1065
01:05:20.719 --> 01:05:23.519
up here from New York. Then we arrive here, find

1066
01:05:23.599 --> 01:05:26.079
Harold dead, and pull in the sheriff. That's all there

1067
01:05:26.159 --> 01:05:27.960
is to it. Andy, Now, wait a minute.

1068
01:05:27.719 --> 01:05:27.960
What is it?

1069
01:05:28.880 --> 01:05:30.760
What time is Harold supposed to have died?

1070
01:05:31.559 --> 01:05:34.079
Well, sometime last night when I was in New York,

1071
01:05:34.119 --> 01:05:34.960
it seemed possible.

1072
01:05:35.559 --> 01:05:37.840
In his body it'll still be warm when the sheriff

1073
01:05:37.880 --> 01:05:40.639
gets here. The sheriff will know that Harold must have

1074
01:05:40.719 --> 01:05:41.480
died this evening.

1075
01:05:42.360 --> 01:05:46.320
Yeah, if it's ride, I forgot that. I can't wait

1076
01:05:46.400 --> 01:05:49.440
until tomorrow, just can't. I got it.

1077
01:05:49.679 --> 01:05:49.719
What.

1078
01:05:50.159 --> 01:05:53.079
It's cold out, only about fifteen above zero. We put

1079
01:05:53.119 --> 01:05:55.000
Harold out on the terraced chair and all for half

1080
01:05:55.039 --> 01:05:57.639
an hour, and then he'll be cold, plenty cold, it

1081
01:05:57.719 --> 01:05:59.119
seems if he died hours ago.

1082
01:06:00.400 --> 01:06:02.760
Swiftly you and Julie lift the chair in which Harold

1083
01:06:02.800 --> 01:06:05.480
Harrington sits. You carry it out on the terrace in

1084
01:06:05.559 --> 01:06:09.519
the bitterly cold wind. There, you leave Harold to cool

1085
01:06:09.559 --> 01:06:12.599
a bit. Back in the house, you set everything straight,

1086
01:06:13.039 --> 01:06:16.719
remove all evidence of Julie's having been there. You wait

1087
01:06:16.800 --> 01:06:21.519
half an hour forty five minutes. Then you carry Harold

1088
01:06:21.639 --> 01:06:24.679
back in chair and all, and pose him properly in

1089
01:06:24.760 --> 01:06:27.480
front of the desk where he his touching suicide.

1090
01:06:27.559 --> 01:06:28.159
Note waits.

1091
01:06:28.840 --> 01:06:35.480
The picture is perfect, cold enough now feels Ford. It's

1092
01:06:35.599 --> 01:06:36.239
like I sare.

1093
01:06:37.199 --> 01:06:40.840
That's because he died last night, My dear, aw let's go.

1094
01:06:41.559 --> 01:06:44.519
I've dinner at the village. Make sure we're seen. Then

1095
01:06:44.599 --> 01:06:50.119
come up here and discover Harold. Your program goes off

1096
01:06:50.159 --> 01:06:52.840
without a hitch. Andy in the village of Bridge Gap.

1097
01:06:52.920 --> 01:06:55.880
You make sure witnesses see you eating. You tell the

1098
01:06:55.920 --> 01:06:58.519
wakess you're just on your way to the cabin. Then

1099
01:06:58.559 --> 01:07:02.679
you drive up and poor Harold's body In half an

1100
01:07:02.719 --> 01:07:06.039
hour the sheriff is there with the coroner. The sheriff

1101
01:07:06.159 --> 01:07:09.599
looks around, listens to your story, reads the letter. Harold's

1102
01:07:09.639 --> 01:07:15.199
so obliging he wrote, and dods Yep, certainly it's plain

1103
01:07:15.280 --> 01:07:19.000
enough story, mister Marlow, porfella down on his luck decided

1104
01:07:19.039 --> 01:07:21.320
to end it. Or you say you gave him a

1105
01:07:21.400 --> 01:07:24.840
key to this cabin six months ago. Yes, that's right, sheriff.

1106
01:07:25.559 --> 01:07:28.079
Six months ago. I did a publicity campaign for him,

1107
01:07:28.079 --> 01:07:29.760
and he used to come up here to work out

1108
01:07:29.760 --> 01:07:30.280
our plans.

1109
01:07:31.079 --> 01:07:33.079
I gave him key then and he kept it.

1110
01:07:33.840 --> 01:07:36.360
Poor Harold crept here to die and hiding.

1111
01:07:36.320 --> 01:07:39.719
And Shard goes, well, I guess there's new user hanging

1112
01:07:39.719 --> 01:07:43.440
around any longer, go fellow? Stone cold means he died

1113
01:07:43.519 --> 01:07:47.719
last night or this morning? Angish, Well, doctor's phone Williams

1114
01:07:47.760 --> 01:07:48.840
the Undertaker and get the show.

1115
01:07:48.840 --> 01:07:50.679
Will I guess we'd better wait.

1116
01:07:50.559 --> 01:07:54.840
A mite before we call the Undertaker. Sheriff, Wait, what for?

1117
01:07:55.960 --> 01:08:01.119
There's something a bit peculiar here. Peculiar he mean pheeless?

1118
01:08:01.159 --> 01:08:04.480
Fellow's finn ninety cold, isn't it?

1119
01:08:04.800 --> 01:08:05.320
It's right?

1120
01:08:05.519 --> 01:08:08.000
Cold? Is any shows he's been dead? Great chimp time.

1121
01:08:08.119 --> 01:08:11.079
Yes, everybody knows that it's an every detective story. His

1122
01:08:11.239 --> 01:08:13.800
forehead was as cold as ice, which had a dollar

1123
01:08:13.880 --> 01:08:15.920
for each time I read it. Yes, but I'm afraid

1124
01:08:15.960 --> 01:08:18.760
you don't get my punt. See, a dead body can

1125
01:08:18.840 --> 01:08:21.439
only cool off to the temperature of the room it's in.

1126
01:08:22.000 --> 01:08:23.720
Oh, well, what are you getting at?

1127
01:08:23.920 --> 01:08:24.119
Just this?

1128
01:08:25.159 --> 01:08:27.039
I took the temperature the suicide.

1129
01:08:27.880 --> 01:08:30.680
His body temperature is only forty five degrees.

1130
01:08:31.680 --> 01:08:33.119
Forty five degrees?

1131
01:08:33.279 --> 01:08:36.439
Where hell could that be? Dog? This room is semny degrees?

1132
01:08:36.880 --> 01:08:38.800
Seemed possible and corad.

1133
01:08:38.880 --> 01:08:43.640
All right, Sheriff, it isn't possible unless this suicide walked

1134
01:08:43.640 --> 01:08:47.000
outdoors and practically froze himself. He came back in, sat

1135
01:08:47.039 --> 01:08:50.439
down and waited for us, And I don't think he

1136
01:08:50.600 --> 01:08:55.479
did what you're saying, Dock is germ. It's not sewish shade.

1137
01:08:56.039 --> 01:08:59.760
It's murder, and I reckon, we got the murderers right

1138
01:08:59.800 --> 01:09:04.720
here in this room with this. Well, folks, how about.

1139
01:09:04.479 --> 01:09:26.560
It visit of mysterious traveler again. Dear me, it's a

1140
01:09:26.760 --> 01:09:31.359
cold wind that blows nobody good, isn't it. Yes, Andy

1141
01:09:31.399 --> 01:09:35.359
and Julie were persuaded to confess. It wasn't hard to

1142
01:09:35.399 --> 01:09:39.079
get a confession, since each rushed in to blame the other.

1143
01:09:40.119 --> 01:09:43.479
Such a clever scheme, too, not a flori in it.

1144
01:09:44.199 --> 01:09:44.520
Fly.

1145
01:09:44.600 --> 01:09:47.239
Andy hadn't been in such a hurry to cool the

1146
01:09:47.359 --> 01:09:51.800
corpse or the moral is never rush a corpse, so

1147
01:09:52.039 --> 01:09:56.279
let it take its own time, even if it kills you. Oh,

1148
01:09:56.399 --> 01:09:59.680
that reminds me of next week's story, The hot Seat.

1149
01:10:00.680 --> 01:10:04.000
It's about a tim witted fellow with but one thing

1150
01:10:04.079 --> 01:10:09.079
in mind, revenge. However, his weapon was not the knife,

1151
01:10:09.399 --> 01:10:13.119
gun or poison that well. Oh, you have to get

1152
01:10:13.199 --> 01:10:16.640
off here. I'm sorry, but I'm sure we'll meet again.

1153
01:10:17.319 --> 01:10:19.800
I take this same train every week.

1154
01:10:19.960 --> 01:10:34.000
At this same time, you have just heard The Mysterious Traveler,

1155
01:10:34.479 --> 01:10:37.479
a series of dramas are the Strange and Terrifying the

1156
01:10:37.600 --> 01:10:40.239
role of the Mysterious Traveler is played by Maurice Tarplin.

1157
01:10:41.079 --> 01:10:46.840
This is Jack Farron speaking. This is the Mutual Broadcasting System.

1158
01:11:06.880 --> 01:11:11.119
Well, my dear, the wind certainly has picked up quite

1159
01:11:11.159 --> 01:11:16.880
a bit, but don't worry. What's that? Well, yes, yes,

1160
01:11:17.039 --> 01:11:23.000
the walls are at least four feet thick, pure concrete.

1161
01:11:24.520 --> 01:11:33.159
The idea is nothing comes in, nothing gets out. But

1162
01:11:33.359 --> 01:11:38.960
I'm getting way too head of myself. I try to

1163
01:11:39.079 --> 01:11:46.680
remember the idea of flurries and blizzards, but sometimes whatever

1164
01:11:46.880 --> 01:11:52.720
my memory is gets lost. But I do recall one

1165
01:11:52.960 --> 01:11:57.479
incident snow on sixty six.

1166
01:11:58.079 --> 01:12:01.920
And now a tale well calculated to keep you in.

1167
01:12:04.000 --> 01:12:04.800
Suspense.

1168
01:12:20.199 --> 01:12:23.119
Nearly ready, honey, it takes time to put on with

1169
01:12:23.199 --> 01:12:24.039
the stick properly.

1170
01:12:24.199 --> 01:12:26.199
Well, I'm sure the natives will love you as you are.

1171
01:12:26.520 --> 01:12:27.279
What natives?

1172
01:12:27.640 --> 01:12:28.640
Where are we, Charlie?

1173
01:12:29.000 --> 01:12:32.159
You mean to sit there making up that utterly provocative

1174
01:12:32.239 --> 01:12:34.920
lower lift that we arrive at the biggest motel in

1175
01:12:35.000 --> 01:12:37.439
the only town on one hundred and fifty miles of

1176
01:12:37.520 --> 01:12:39.319
desert highway and not know where we are.

1177
01:12:39.760 --> 01:12:42.319
I suppose I could find some postcards or envelopes in

1178
01:12:42.359 --> 01:12:43.239
one of these drawers.

1179
01:12:43.560 --> 01:12:46.439
Nah, you just stick with the decorating. I'll billion from

1180
01:12:46.479 --> 01:12:51.159
this folder. See this is the beat tetekin. Thet Tetecan

1181
01:12:51.239 --> 01:12:54.840
Motel is located on the outskirts of Red Mountain, Arizona.

1182
01:12:55.039 --> 01:12:56.359
So that's where we are.

1183
01:12:56.600 --> 01:12:57.279
That's where we are.

1184
01:12:57.479 --> 01:13:00.560
Red Mountain, Arizona is four hundred and eighty five miles

1185
01:13:00.760 --> 01:13:03.079
east of Los Angeles. What's more, of the temperature is

1186
01:13:03.119 --> 01:13:06.279
now twenty degrees. It's expected to drop the five below

1187
01:13:06.319 --> 01:13:08.119
to night with snow before morning.

1188
01:13:08.479 --> 01:13:10.000
Now it doesn't say that I'm a folder.

1189
01:13:10.279 --> 01:13:12.159
Oh, the manager told me that when we registered.

1190
01:13:12.560 --> 01:13:16.000
I've below. I've never been where it got that cold.

1191
01:13:16.399 --> 01:13:18.640
You California gals, all you've got going for you there

1192
01:13:18.760 --> 01:13:20.399
is climate. You never have weather.

1193
01:13:20.680 --> 01:13:23.399
I'm sorry I failed you so early in our marriage.

1194
01:13:23.640 --> 01:13:25.159
Better to know the worst right away.

1195
01:13:25.560 --> 01:13:26.760
But come on, let's let's eat.

1196
01:13:27.000 --> 01:13:28.760
I'm ready. How do I look?

1197
01:13:29.359 --> 01:13:32.239
You look fine to me? But the Indians may think

1198
01:13:32.319 --> 01:13:36.520
white men? Go on warpath again, white wall where heat

1199
01:13:36.640 --> 01:13:37.319
much war paint?

1200
01:13:37.600 --> 01:13:40.119
Funny got the key, I got it.

1201
01:13:40.199 --> 01:13:40.520
Let's go.

1202
01:13:48.560 --> 01:13:53.399
Ooh it's cold, twenty degrees and dropping. Hey, be careful,

1203
01:13:53.439 --> 01:13:55.920
that's the ice there. Oh here, Hang on to me.

1204
01:13:57.520 --> 01:13:59.560
What's It's a train, That's what it is.

1205
01:14:00.079 --> 01:14:01.439
Look over across the road.

1206
01:14:01.800 --> 01:14:03.960
Train out here in the middle of nowhere.

1207
01:14:05.000 --> 01:14:08.560
Sure, this mainline from LA to Chicago runs alongside the

1208
01:14:08.600 --> 01:14:10.359
highway out here for hundreds of miles.

1209
01:14:11.399 --> 01:14:13.479
You look at them eating dinner in that dining car.

1210
01:14:14.039 --> 01:14:15.079
I'll bet they're nice.

1211
01:14:14.920 --> 01:14:16.880
And wool want to change places?

1212
01:14:18.159 --> 01:14:20.760
They look so safe. I don't want to be safe.

1213
01:14:21.159 --> 01:14:22.279
I want adventure.

1214
01:14:23.720 --> 01:14:25.039
You picked a great place for it.

1215
01:14:26.039 --> 01:14:29.960
Red mout the hot spot of northern Arizona. Just look

1216
01:14:30.000 --> 01:14:30.199
at it.

1217
01:14:31.000 --> 01:14:35.399
One main street and fifty two hotels, eighty seven gas station.

1218
01:14:35.319 --> 01:14:38.960
And six restaurants featuring chill mac and canned soup.

1219
01:14:39.439 --> 01:14:42.840
And the manager shills for the Kachina Doll down towards

1220
01:14:42.880 --> 01:14:43.439
center town.

1221
01:14:43.840 --> 01:14:45.479
Will watch out for that little truck, Charlie.

1222
01:14:45.840 --> 01:14:46.359
I see him.

1223
01:14:46.880 --> 01:14:50.680
He's far enough away. I think, Oh, that's so and so.

1224
01:14:52.319 --> 01:14:52.680
I don't know.

1225
01:14:52.760 --> 01:14:54.520
He waited till I pulled out in front of him,

1226
01:14:54.520 --> 01:14:57.159
and then he'd let me have his bright lights blinded

1227
01:14:57.239 --> 01:14:57.479
me in the.

1228
01:14:57.520 --> 01:14:58.319
Rear vision mirror.

1229
01:14:58.439 --> 01:15:00.000
Oh maybe he's singling. He wants to pass.

1230
01:15:00.560 --> 01:15:00.960
Let him.

1231
01:15:05.399 --> 01:15:06.039
Oh, that's it.

1232
01:15:06.199 --> 01:15:07.359
And he's blowing his horn.

1233
01:15:10.880 --> 01:15:11.399
Very good.

1234
01:15:11.760 --> 01:15:12.880
He's been in an awful hurry.

1235
01:15:14.239 --> 01:15:15.600
Oh my god, he's putting on his brakes.

1236
01:15:15.760 --> 01:15:17.439
He piled into him.

1237
01:15:17.560 --> 01:15:18.600
He's drunk, that's what.

1238
01:15:19.000 --> 01:15:22.880
Oh crazy, And now I slowed down to twenty. You

1239
01:15:23.079 --> 01:15:24.000
won't have to pass him.

1240
01:15:26.199 --> 01:15:27.000
He won't let you.

1241
01:15:27.520 --> 01:15:29.920
Is this I speed up? He speeds up.

1242
01:15:30.239 --> 01:15:32.920
Let him go, then, Charlie, it's a good thing.

1243
01:15:33.000 --> 01:15:34.199
Nobody was coming toward us.

1244
01:15:34.880 --> 01:15:36.359
We'll watch out. He's slowing down again.

1245
01:15:38.239 --> 01:15:38.760
Fifteen.

1246
01:15:39.399 --> 01:15:41.239
Do you suppose he's doing that on purpose?

1247
01:15:41.399 --> 01:15:41.760
I don't know.

1248
01:15:44.000 --> 01:15:47.079
Come on, I'm going to try it again.

1249
01:15:52.600 --> 01:15:55.359
He won't let me buy he is doing it on purpose. Well,

1250
01:15:55.479 --> 01:15:58.399
there's the restaurant, the Kachina dollars over there there on

1251
01:15:58.479 --> 01:15:58.800
the left.

1252
01:15:59.159 --> 01:16:01.680
Well, there's one way of losing our comedian. I'll just

1253
01:16:01.800 --> 01:16:03.880
beal off to the left and let him have a

1254
01:16:03.920 --> 01:16:04.840
highway to himself.

1255
01:16:10.119 --> 01:16:13.880
He doesn't seem to want the highway, Charlie. Look up

1256
01:16:13.920 --> 01:16:16.880
the road. He's turning into the gas station. He's coming back.

1257
01:16:17.279 --> 01:16:17.840
I'll let him.

1258
01:16:17.880 --> 01:16:19.600
Come on, let's see, Charlie.

1259
01:16:20.119 --> 01:16:21.039
You better lock the car.

1260
01:16:21.479 --> 01:16:24.880
Why him, there's nothing for anybody to take.

1261
01:16:24.880 --> 01:16:28.439
I'd feel better if you locked it all right. Look,

1262
01:16:29.199 --> 01:16:31.439
Look he's cruising by looking us over like he was

1263
01:16:31.439 --> 01:16:32.640
a cop and we did something.

1264
01:16:33.000 --> 01:16:35.760
Maybe he is, heccurred to me when he first swung

1265
01:16:35.800 --> 01:16:36.399
in front of us.

1266
01:16:36.800 --> 01:16:37.960
Well he isn't in uniform.

1267
01:16:39.960 --> 01:16:41.199
There, the car is all locked.

1268
01:16:41.720 --> 01:16:45.239
Let's go, Charlie down the road. He's turning around again.

1269
01:16:45.520 --> 01:16:46.640
What's the matter with him?

1270
01:16:46.960 --> 01:16:49.319
Whatever it is, it's his problem. Let's see.

1271
01:16:57.359 --> 01:16:57.920
Don't know where you.

1272
01:16:57.920 --> 01:16:58.319
Want to sit?

1273
01:17:01.359 --> 01:17:01.640
Read?

1274
01:17:02.119 --> 01:17:03.239
How are you folks tonight?

1275
01:17:03.920 --> 01:17:04.119
Old?

1276
01:17:04.239 --> 01:17:05.479
We're not too late for dinner, are we?

1277
01:17:05.720 --> 01:17:05.840
Oh?

1278
01:17:06.079 --> 01:17:07.359
No, we can take care of him.

1279
01:17:08.119 --> 01:17:08.840
Just wait, leave.

1280
01:17:10.960 --> 01:17:13.000
Well, here's a nice booth for two.

1281
01:17:13.239 --> 01:17:15.359
Good here for a drink?

1282
01:17:20.000 --> 01:17:23.119
No, I don't think we do. I'm pretty hungry. Let's

1283
01:17:23.159 --> 01:17:26.520
just have some food because we're starved. I'll see the menu.

1284
01:17:26.880 --> 01:17:29.600
Okay, coming right up, Charlie.

1285
01:17:29.880 --> 01:17:31.880
Why the driver of that pickup.

1286
01:17:31.600 --> 01:17:34.720
Truck he just came in so it's a public place.

1287
01:17:34.880 --> 01:17:35.800
But he's coming over here.

1288
01:17:36.319 --> 01:17:36.720
Let him.

1289
01:17:37.199 --> 01:17:38.479
Hey, you don't pay any.

1290
01:17:38.359 --> 01:17:39.319
Attention to him here?

1291
01:17:39.359 --> 01:17:41.239
You were you speaking to me?

1292
01:17:41.640 --> 01:17:44.720
And that blue sixty one Chevy outside that belong to you?

1293
01:17:45.319 --> 01:17:45.720
It does?

1294
01:17:46.159 --> 01:17:48.720
But I want to talk to you. What's on your mind?

1295
01:17:48.960 --> 01:17:50.439
Outside, Charlie, don't go.

1296
01:17:51.199 --> 01:17:53.760
I said, what's on your mind? Look, but I don't

1297
01:17:53.880 --> 01:17:56.760
like people cutting in front of me when I drove

1298
01:17:56.800 --> 01:17:57.479
out of the motel.

1299
01:17:57.760 --> 01:17:59.000
Yeah, that's what I mean.

1300
01:17:59.760 --> 01:18:02.279
I'm sorry about that. I didn't realize you were coming

1301
01:18:02.319 --> 01:18:02.920
on so fast.

1302
01:18:03.000 --> 01:18:04.199
Yeah, well, I could have killed you.

1303
01:18:04.640 --> 01:18:07.079
I could have run you down and killed.

1304
01:18:06.840 --> 01:18:10.560
You as you could. Stupid of me not to realize

1305
01:18:10.560 --> 01:18:11.239
the dangers.

1306
01:18:11.399 --> 01:18:13.600
Well, I don't like people doing things like that.

1307
01:18:13.640 --> 01:18:15.880
I don't blame you, and believe me, it won't happen again.

1308
01:18:16.159 --> 01:18:19.159
Better not, because the next time, brother, I'll kill you.

1309
01:18:19.520 --> 01:18:20.319
I'm sure you will.

1310
01:18:20.800 --> 01:18:21.960
Yeah, I'll kill you next time.

1311
01:18:22.000 --> 01:18:22.720
I'll remember that.

1312
01:18:22.920 --> 01:18:23.520
Yeah, you do that.

1313
01:18:24.720 --> 01:18:25.359
I don't.

1314
01:18:25.359 --> 01:18:26.640
I don't like that kind of jazz.

1315
01:18:26.880 --> 01:18:27.800
And I don't blame you.

1316
01:18:30.000 --> 01:18:30.199
Yeah.

1317
01:18:30.239 --> 01:18:33.720
Well, well I accept your apology, and.

1318
01:18:36.000 --> 01:18:37.600
You remember the next time.

1319
01:18:38.199 --> 01:18:40.239
I remember next time.

1320
01:18:40.279 --> 01:18:41.119
You'll kill me.

1321
01:18:42.399 --> 01:18:46.880
Yeah, and then don't you forget it.

1322
01:18:47.279 --> 01:18:52.000
Believe me, I won't, he Charlie.

1323
01:18:52.479 --> 01:18:55.039
At least I could smell it all the way across

1324
01:18:55.079 --> 01:18:55.920
the table, and.

1325
01:18:56.079 --> 01:18:57.279
That's why I agreed with him.

1326
01:18:57.680 --> 01:18:58.520
You were wonderful.

1327
01:19:00.079 --> 01:19:01.000
Do you think I was chicken?

1328
01:19:01.079 --> 01:19:01.119
No?

1329
01:19:01.319 --> 01:19:05.760
No point arguing when they're that fire gone. No, wonder

1330
01:19:05.840 --> 01:19:07.880
he drove the way he did. I'm proud of you.

1331
01:19:08.319 --> 01:19:11.159
You left him with nowhere to go. But did he

1332
01:19:11.279 --> 01:19:14.680
give you any troubles? No, not really, but he might have.

1333
01:19:15.119 --> 01:19:17.520
He might have killed us out there on the road. Lee,

1334
01:19:17.600 --> 01:19:20.760
Roy don't mean no harm, you know him? Hush, Sure

1335
01:19:21.239 --> 01:19:25.359
everybody knows Leroy. He talks rough, but she don't mean

1336
01:19:25.439 --> 01:19:25.960
no harm.

1337
01:19:26.880 --> 01:19:28.359
Well, your folks decided.

1338
01:19:29.000 --> 01:19:30.279
I'm not very hungry now.

1339
01:19:30.399 --> 01:19:34.600
But you must need something you order for me, gracious,

1340
01:19:34.800 --> 01:19:36.520
I'm afraid i've lost my appetite too.

1341
01:19:37.000 --> 01:19:40.359
Frye work chops, A nice night with flour, gravy, No,

1342
01:19:40.680 --> 01:19:41.319
I think not.

1343
01:19:42.319 --> 01:19:43.039
Have you any shoes?

1344
01:19:43.159 --> 01:19:43.319
Oh?

1345
01:19:43.439 --> 01:19:48.159
Yes, nan, vegetable tomato, green tea and cans?

1346
01:19:48.920 --> 01:19:49.159
Well?

1347
01:19:50.000 --> 01:19:52.880
As a matter of fact, yes, good good, I prefer

1348
01:19:53.000 --> 01:19:56.560
it that way you do. Then the cook can't get

1349
01:19:56.640 --> 01:19:59.800
at it. We'll have vegetable soup.

1350
01:20:00.359 --> 01:20:05.560
Well, okay, two vegetable soup and what else? That's all, yes, ma'am.

1351
01:20:06.239 --> 01:20:08.640
And listen, don't let me Roy upset you.

1352
01:20:09.039 --> 01:20:11.079
He's just a big kid, that's all.

1353
01:20:13.680 --> 01:20:14.760
Oh who puts that on?

1354
01:20:15.079 --> 01:20:16.159
Another folk song?

1355
01:20:17.479 --> 01:20:20.119
Charlie? And you sure you lock the car?

1356
01:20:21.439 --> 01:20:21.880
I'm sure?

1357
01:20:22.640 --> 01:20:28.359
Maybe better? Look why I don't know, maybe he's done something,

1358
01:20:29.000 --> 01:20:31.279
broke in a window with a tire. I don't know.

1359
01:20:32.239 --> 01:20:36.000
I was thinking the same thing. Okay, I'll go look it.

1360
01:20:36.119 --> 01:21:26.119
We'll be careful. Everything, Okay, everything's okay.

1361
01:21:28.039 --> 01:21:30.800
I've been thinking, hunhy, I think we ought to report

1362
01:21:30.880 --> 01:21:34.640
him of the police. Maybe we could have been killed.

1363
01:21:34.720 --> 01:21:37.479
You know, if anybody had been coming the other way

1364
01:21:37.960 --> 01:21:40.279
when he wouldn't let us pass him, we'd have been killed.

1365
01:21:40.479 --> 01:21:43.159
I know if he tried the same thing on somebody

1366
01:21:43.199 --> 01:21:46.079
else and they were hurt or worse, I'd never forgive myself.

1367
01:21:46.239 --> 01:21:47.159
Well here we are.

1368
01:21:47.279 --> 01:21:52.039
Folks too, vegetables too there, say are you sure you

1369
01:21:52.039 --> 01:21:53.800
don't want to try the fried pork shops?

1370
01:21:53.960 --> 01:21:55.399
Or quite sure? Thank you?

1371
01:21:56.680 --> 01:21:59.079
Miss? And you call the police for me?

1372
01:21:59.439 --> 01:22:03.560
The police for I'm asking? Now, can you call him

1373
01:22:03.600 --> 01:22:03.800
for me?

1374
01:22:04.960 --> 01:22:08.760
Look if it's on account of Leroy, Well, I wouldn't

1375
01:22:08.760 --> 01:22:09.359
do that if.

1376
01:22:09.239 --> 01:22:09.640
I was you.

1377
01:22:10.479 --> 01:22:11.560
You're not me, are you?

1378
01:22:12.640 --> 01:22:12.680
No?

1379
01:22:14.079 --> 01:22:14.279
Well?

1380
01:22:14.760 --> 01:22:16.000
How call if you say so?

1381
01:22:16.199 --> 01:22:19.760
But you know, I'm kind of glad I'm not you.

1382
01:22:20.520 --> 01:22:22.960
Kind of a crack as that Leroy.

1383
01:22:24.520 --> 01:22:34.279
You don't bother me, Yes, officer, I wrote down the

1384
01:22:34.359 --> 01:22:35.319
license number.

1385
01:22:35.159 --> 01:22:38.159
Eight eight oh oh eight, Yeah, that's right.

1386
01:22:38.199 --> 01:22:38.520
Officer.

1387
01:22:38.560 --> 01:22:42.600
It was an International Harvester pickup painted red and shining.

1388
01:22:42.680 --> 01:22:49.399
That's Leroy, all right, that's his horn.

1389
01:22:49.640 --> 01:22:51.000
No, lady, that ain't Leroy.

1390
01:22:51.079 --> 01:22:53.600
That's the Orange Empire Express goes through here every night

1391
01:22:53.680 --> 01:22:54.680
at nine forty two.

1392
01:22:55.239 --> 01:22:59.920
Oh well, anyway, this Leroy was drunk morning.

1393
01:23:00.760 --> 01:23:02.840
He's driving in a fog, and you want me to

1394
01:23:02.960 --> 01:23:05.720
arrest him. I don't think you should before he causes

1395
01:23:05.760 --> 01:23:08.560
an accident or hurts or kills somebody.

1396
01:23:08.840 --> 01:23:09.880
Oh, that ain't likely.

1397
01:23:10.640 --> 01:23:11.159
How do you know?

1398
01:23:11.560 --> 01:23:12.520
I know Leroy.

1399
01:23:13.199 --> 01:23:16.399
Look, I know my rights. I hope you know your duty.

1400
01:23:17.159 --> 01:23:18.720
I want you to swear out of Warren for the

1401
01:23:18.800 --> 01:23:19.960
arrest of this Leroy.

1402
01:23:20.399 --> 01:23:22.000
I want you to go out and pick him up

1403
01:23:22.000 --> 01:23:22.520
and put him.

1404
01:23:22.439 --> 01:23:23.680
In jail to lee sobers up.

1405
01:23:23.800 --> 01:23:26.399
Oh, Leroy is the same, drunk or sober. It makes

1406
01:23:26.439 --> 01:23:27.039
no difference.

1407
01:23:27.159 --> 01:23:29.439
And maybe he should go to another kind of institution.

1408
01:23:30.119 --> 01:23:32.319
You sure you want to make a formal complaint.

1409
01:23:32.439 --> 01:23:35.239
What's going on here? Is this Leroy the son of

1410
01:23:35.319 --> 01:23:37.199
the mayor or the nephew of the governor or something.

1411
01:23:37.640 --> 01:23:40.720
What kind of a conspiracy is is your boy Leroy

1412
01:23:40.840 --> 01:23:42.479
could have killed me and my wife?

1413
01:23:42.560 --> 01:23:45.279
And yes, I do want to make a formal complaint.

1414
01:23:45.840 --> 01:23:47.119
That's what I thought I was doing.

1415
01:23:47.560 --> 01:23:48.560
Look at it this way.

1416
01:23:48.720 --> 01:23:52.439
You're just passing through town. Chances are you won't be

1417
01:23:52.600 --> 01:23:56.199
back this way for months, years, maybe never. But me,

1418
01:23:57.119 --> 01:23:58.239
I gotta live here.

1419
01:23:58.239 --> 01:24:00.520
With Leroy and all the other Leroy in town.

1420
01:24:01.359 --> 01:24:02.439
We get quite a few of them.

1421
01:24:03.000 --> 01:24:03.960
They're just big kids.

1422
01:24:04.000 --> 01:24:06.840
They don't really need no harm, but they get restless.

1423
01:24:07.640 --> 01:24:09.279
There ain't enough to do in this burg.

1424
01:24:09.439 --> 01:24:12.520
Only one movie show the TV don't come through good.

1425
01:24:13.520 --> 01:24:16.239
That leaves the bars, so they get their kicks on

1426
01:24:16.479 --> 01:24:19.600
sixty six. Scaring the pants off of tourists as they

1427
01:24:19.680 --> 01:24:20.199
passed through.

1428
01:24:20.960 --> 01:24:22.840
Sounds kind of silly when you put it that way,

1429
01:24:22.920 --> 01:24:24.680
but that's about the size of it.

1430
01:24:25.439 --> 01:24:26.119
Tell you what I'll do.

1431
01:24:26.760 --> 01:24:28.880
I'll have a dog with Leroy next time I see him.

1432
01:24:29.800 --> 01:24:31.680
Well, I want you to put him behind bars now

1433
01:24:32.439 --> 01:24:34.199
tonight before he kills someone.

1434
01:24:34.680 --> 01:24:37.119
He mister, she would like to oblige her that I

1435
01:24:37.159 --> 01:24:38.960
wouldn't know where to begin looking for him at this

1436
01:24:39.079 --> 01:24:42.760
our night, for the weather kicking up a blizzard, I

1437
01:24:42.920 --> 01:24:44.319
just wouldn't know where to begin.

1438
01:24:44.439 --> 01:24:45.319
That's a fact.

1439
01:24:54.960 --> 01:24:58.560
We invade your privacy on. But she already filed the

1440
01:24:58.640 --> 01:25:01.000
nails on that hand, Oh.

1441
01:25:01.159 --> 01:25:04.760
Yes, Charlie. I'm so nervous. I don't know what I'm doing,

1442
01:25:05.039 --> 01:25:07.560
and I keep hearing noises outside.

1443
01:25:07.760 --> 01:25:09.359
Your imaginations playing tricks.

1444
01:25:09.640 --> 01:25:12.239
I suppose so, but just a minute ago I thought

1445
01:25:12.239 --> 01:25:12.960
I heard them again.

1446
01:25:13.479 --> 01:25:17.199
Oh Charlie, I know it's silly, but would you please

1447
01:25:17.319 --> 01:25:19.079
check the car again for me?

1448
01:25:20.199 --> 01:25:21.600
Come on, please?

1449
01:25:22.560 --> 01:25:25.840
Then, I promise I'll get ready for bed all right?

1450
01:25:31.880 --> 01:25:32.279
What is it?

1451
01:25:33.760 --> 01:25:33.920
Left?

1452
01:25:34.000 --> 01:25:35.760
The hair out of the backfire?

1453
01:25:38.640 --> 01:25:39.239
Lee Roy?

1454
01:25:49.840 --> 01:25:51.680
Come on, come on answer the phone.

1455
01:25:51.800 --> 01:25:53.199
Hurry, Charlie, hurry.

1456
01:25:53.680 --> 01:25:59.560
You don't answer, no wonder that's his card here. It

1457
01:25:59.640 --> 01:26:04.479
says the motel switchboard is closed after ten pm.

1458
01:26:05.039 --> 01:26:07.199
But we've got to get air in those tires.

1459
01:26:07.640 --> 01:26:09.039
We couldn't wait a morning, No.

1460
01:26:09.359 --> 01:26:12.760
Charlie, I will not stay in this place a minute

1461
01:26:12.840 --> 01:26:16.159
longer with that crazy man out there beeping his horn

1462
01:26:16.199 --> 01:26:18.640
at us, and I don't know what all next, they'll

1463
01:26:18.760 --> 01:26:19.760
murderers at our beds.

1464
01:26:20.159 --> 01:26:22.199
I can't get anybody to answer the phone, so.

1465
01:26:22.279 --> 01:26:23.680
We'll just have to wake up the manager.

1466
01:26:24.319 --> 01:26:25.039
I don't like it.

1467
01:26:25.239 --> 01:26:26.560
I couldn't care less.

1468
01:26:35.880 --> 01:26:40.239
I can do for you, man, I'm on, can't you

1469
01:26:40.319 --> 01:26:42.640
come out and then call in the morning.

1470
01:26:43.000 --> 01:26:44.399
Somebody will take care of you them.

1471
01:26:45.960 --> 01:26:48.279
Same thing, same thing.

1472
01:26:48.680 --> 01:26:49.479
I could have told you.

1473
01:26:49.800 --> 01:26:52.119
Nobody's coming out in this weather to fix a time.

1474
01:26:52.640 --> 01:26:53.680
How do you get the police?

1475
01:26:54.159 --> 01:26:54.279
Are?

1476
01:26:54.359 --> 01:26:55.600
They ain't coming out either?

1477
01:26:57.399 --> 01:26:57.680
Pretty?

1478
01:26:58.319 --> 01:26:59.520
Will you give me the police?

1479
01:27:00.079 --> 01:27:01.640
Look, you folks are cheaping me up.

1480
01:27:02.239 --> 01:27:04.520
I'm sorry, it's only take a minute.

1481
01:27:07.000 --> 01:27:10.880
Read Mount boyees. Uh listen, did you pick up Leroy?

1482
01:27:11.439 --> 01:27:11.600
Oh?

1483
01:27:12.800 --> 01:27:13.359
Yeah, it's me.

1484
01:27:14.479 --> 01:27:15.720
You got Leroy in jail.

1485
01:27:16.079 --> 01:27:17.600
No, I ain't run into him.

1486
01:27:18.000 --> 01:27:21.239
I didn't think so well. He's just let the air

1487
01:27:21.359 --> 01:27:22.279
out of my tires.

1488
01:27:23.039 --> 01:27:23.800
Sure was him?

1489
01:27:24.239 --> 01:27:24.880
See him do it?

1490
01:27:25.640 --> 01:27:26.920
Of course I didn't see.

1491
01:27:26.760 --> 01:27:27.159
Him do it.

1492
01:27:27.399 --> 01:27:29.119
But my rear tires are flat.

1493
01:27:29.159 --> 01:27:31.119
And what's more, I can't get anybody to come out

1494
01:27:31.159 --> 01:27:31.960
here and pump them.

1495
01:27:31.920 --> 01:27:32.279
Up for me.

1496
01:27:32.680 --> 01:27:34.079
Sorry, I ain't a police matter.

1497
01:27:35.000 --> 01:27:36.800
You can get somebody in the morning, no doubt.

1498
01:27:37.119 --> 01:27:38.439
I don't want to wait till morning.

1499
01:27:38.960 --> 01:27:40.159
I don't want to spend another.

1500
01:27:40.000 --> 01:27:42.479
Minute in your coming town. I want to get out

1501
01:27:42.520 --> 01:27:43.239
of here right now.

1502
01:27:43.720 --> 01:27:45.520
And you're gonna have to pump up your tires your

1503
01:27:45.520 --> 01:27:46.079
own self.

1504
01:27:46.399 --> 01:27:47.359
It's a good idea.

1505
01:27:48.079 --> 01:27:48.960
I just might do that.

1506
01:27:49.319 --> 01:27:50.920
That's about all I could suggest.

1507
01:27:51.159 --> 01:27:53.119
And don't you friend, I'll.

1508
01:27:52.920 --> 01:27:57.880
Speak to Leroy so to say thanks, thanks, a lot.

1509
01:28:01.079 --> 01:28:03.119
Let's get out of here in just a minute. You

1510
01:28:03.279 --> 01:28:04.720
owe me for those home calls.

1511
01:28:05.159 --> 01:28:08.920
Yeah here, keep the change by a trip to the moon.

1512
01:28:18.560 --> 01:28:19.520
How's it going, honey?

1513
01:28:20.600 --> 01:28:21.920
And the last one's nearly up.

1514
01:28:23.359 --> 01:28:29.520
He's the car package, everything's ready to go. Listen, that's him,

1515
01:28:30.000 --> 01:28:32.159
that's his horn. Hurry, Charlie, turn.

1516
01:28:32.039 --> 01:28:33.520
Off, don't let panic.

1517
01:28:33.680 --> 01:28:34.840
So what can he do?

1518
01:28:35.199 --> 01:28:35.239
No?

1519
01:28:35.439 --> 01:28:39.000
I don't know. I don't know what's he done? Really, Charlie,

1520
01:28:39.560 --> 01:28:42.279
just don't try to reason with me. Get that tire

1521
01:28:42.359 --> 01:28:49.000
pumped up and take me away from here, please, please, please, please?

1522
01:29:02.279 --> 01:29:03.520
What's the idea of parking?

1523
01:29:03.560 --> 01:29:06.520
I was from the police station bowing that horn. You'll

1524
01:29:06.520 --> 01:29:08.800
give me this town of bad names? Can them terrasts?

1525
01:29:11.039 --> 01:29:13.840
They wanted me to arrest you or you wouldn't do that?

1526
01:29:14.000 --> 01:29:14.880
They're old friend.

1527
01:29:15.199 --> 01:29:15.920
I didn't want to.

1528
01:29:16.039 --> 01:29:18.000
But then you had to go and let the out

1529
01:29:18.079 --> 01:29:18.560
left down.

1530
01:29:20.359 --> 01:29:23.199
You know, I do the darnedest thing sometimes. I know

1531
01:29:23.279 --> 01:29:23.960
you're going home.

1532
01:29:24.399 --> 01:29:25.600
H lock yuh for Ben Hornery.

1533
01:29:26.640 --> 01:29:30.159
You better do that, Pete, because I never make it.

1534
01:29:30.920 --> 01:29:34.199
You know, I can't see the drive home.

1535
01:29:35.479 --> 01:29:37.039
All right, climb out there.

1536
01:29:37.359 --> 01:29:42.680
I'll give yourself to sleep it off there, Yeah, I said,

1537
01:29:42.840 --> 01:29:43.760
knock off that horn.

1538
01:29:44.880 --> 01:29:51.199
Any town so pretty, Pete, you know you're you're a

1539
01:29:51.319 --> 01:29:53.279
real pal, just a real.

1540
01:29:53.239 --> 01:29:56.359
Pal putting up a pal for the night.

1541
01:29:58.079 --> 01:29:59.239
In the jail house.

1542
01:30:09.159 --> 01:30:14.359
See that sign on city limits Red Mountain. Come back soon,

1543
01:30:14.800 --> 01:30:15.680
I'm sure.

1544
01:30:15.600 --> 01:30:16.159
We will.

1545
01:30:17.960 --> 01:30:18.319
Trying.

1546
01:30:18.880 --> 01:30:20.720
I never was so glad to get.

1547
01:30:20.600 --> 01:30:22.960
Out of any place in my whole life.

1548
01:30:23.760 --> 01:30:26.560
I didn't exactly enjoy it too much myself.

1549
01:30:26.840 --> 01:30:27.479
On the radio.

1550
01:30:27.640 --> 01:30:31.000
Huh, It's funny how a little thing like that can

1551
01:30:31.159 --> 01:30:35.800
work on grow and grow to on the edge of panic.

1552
01:30:35.960 --> 01:30:36.119
You know.

1553
01:30:38.039 --> 01:30:41.439
Oh, those snowflakes are so big and it comes straight out.

1554
01:30:42.279 --> 01:30:44.680
What a duck because they seem to be coming through

1555
01:30:44.800 --> 01:30:45.119
the wind.

1556
01:30:45.199 --> 01:30:48.560
Shoot the best driving conditions, I can tell you that

1557
01:30:49.479 --> 01:30:51.760
can do much better in twenty oh. I don't care

1558
01:30:51.880 --> 01:30:52.680
to have to curl.

1559
01:30:53.279 --> 01:30:57.079
We're getting further away from that dreadful town every minute.

1560
01:30:58.439 --> 01:31:01.920
That's all I need. Some idiot behind me with his

1561
01:31:02.039 --> 01:31:07.479
high bamb only one headlight. It's murdered, Charlie.

1562
01:31:07.880 --> 01:31:12.239
Don't suppose, Charlie, it's Lee.

1563
01:31:12.319 --> 01:31:14.039
Why he's overtaking us fast.

1564
01:31:14.840 --> 01:31:18.000
You can't let him past, You can't let him boxes

1565
01:31:18.039 --> 01:31:21.720
out here in this lizard, I can't drive much faster

1566
01:31:21.920 --> 01:31:23.920
you've got to, Charlie, Charlie, You've got to.

1567
01:31:24.239 --> 01:31:27.199
But I can't see this wholes just a white wall.

1568
01:31:27.399 --> 01:31:29.640
Faster, Charlie, Charlie. He's gaining on it with.

1569
01:31:29.680 --> 01:31:33.000
The one headlights in the mirrors binding his fall.

1570
01:31:33.119 --> 01:31:37.640
He's on his Charlie fast, so I can't see. I

1571
01:31:37.760 --> 01:31:59.560
can't see a thing, but Moto, that is pain.

1572
01:32:00.119 --> 01:32:00.960
At the police station.

1573
01:32:01.800 --> 01:32:02.560
You woke me up.

1574
01:32:03.159 --> 01:32:07.000
I'm sorry, Sam that Durser was beaten by Leroy.

1575
01:32:06.880 --> 01:32:09.680
And he's still are Yeah, I wouldn't know. I was

1576
01:32:09.760 --> 01:32:10.840
trying to get some sleep.

1577
01:32:11.119 --> 01:32:11.319
Yeah.

1578
01:32:11.399 --> 01:32:13.960
Well, well if you see him, tell him. I picked

1579
01:32:14.039 --> 01:32:16.880
up Leroy telling Leroy sleeping.

1580
01:32:16.560 --> 01:32:18.399
It all in the jail.

1581
01:32:25.520 --> 01:32:26.359
Saft Spence.

1582
01:32:28.479 --> 01:32:31.920
You've been listening to snow On sixty six, written especially

1583
01:32:32.079 --> 01:32:36.039
for suspense by William N. Robson and starring Grayson Hall

1584
01:32:36.279 --> 01:32:37.239
and Jimmy Blaine.

1585
01:32:38.640 --> 01:32:39.399
I have a nice tamp.

1586
01:32:39.479 --> 01:32:40.720
Don't forget your fun.

1587
01:32:42.279 --> 01:32:46.680
Lanning your vacation or a weekend trip well, long distance

1588
01:32:46.880 --> 01:32:49.800
can be a big help you decide where you want

1589
01:32:49.840 --> 01:32:52.319
to go, then just pick up your phone and call

1590
01:32:52.399 --> 01:32:55.600
ahead for reservations, make sure of a good place to stay,

1591
01:32:56.800 --> 01:32:59.239
and while you're away, it's so easy to keep in

1592
01:32:59.319 --> 01:33:03.000
touch with home by telephone. Well, have a good trip,

1593
01:33:03.359 --> 01:33:04.720
and don't forget the phone.

1594
01:33:13.439 --> 01:33:17.239
Suspense is produced and directed by Fred Hendrickson, music supervision

1595
01:33:17.239 --> 01:33:20.680
by Etha Huber. Heard in Tonight's Story where Gwen Davis,

1596
01:33:21.199 --> 01:33:26.439
James Dimitri, Bill Mason, and Sam Radskin sound patterns by

1597
01:33:26.520 --> 01:33:27.079
Walter Otto.

1598
01:33:27.680 --> 01:33:32.520
This is Stewart Mett speaking Shaft spense.

1599
01:33:42.039 --> 01:33:47.399
I don't often keep up with the ways outside. I

1600
01:33:47.520 --> 01:33:52.880
suppose it's not in my purview, but I've heard a

1601
01:33:53.000 --> 01:33:59.760
lot about this weather of yours, this cold, wet, icy.

1602
01:34:01.439 --> 01:34:09.159
It seems deliciously dangerous, or almost delightful in its stillness,

1603
01:34:09.239 --> 01:34:14.720
because the cold is what comes after the war is gone.

1604
01:34:16.279 --> 01:34:22.079
We truly live in the Time of the Big Snow.

1605
01:34:31.319 --> 01:34:36.319
The American Broadcasting Company presents Quiet Please, which is written

1606
01:34:36.359 --> 01:34:40.319
and directed by Willis Cooper, which features Ernest Chaplin.

1607
01:34:41.319 --> 01:34:45.319
Quiet Please for Today is called the Time of the

1608
01:34:45.439 --> 01:34:55.439
Big Snow. We were so small and it was such

1609
01:34:55.479 --> 01:34:57.640
a big snow, wasn't.

1610
01:34:57.439 --> 01:35:03.000
It, dere My, I remember remembered it. It was the

1611
01:35:03.079 --> 01:35:05.600
day after New Year's New Year's Night.

1612
01:35:05.800 --> 01:35:09.319
I remember we hadn't had much snow that year, only

1613
01:35:09.359 --> 01:35:10.800
a little Thanksgiving Day.

1614
01:35:11.399 --> 01:35:13.479
No, the day before Thanksgiving.

1615
01:35:13.039 --> 01:35:16.279
When you were Miles standings in the exercises and I

1616
01:35:16.479 --> 01:35:18.760
was Priscilla, and Irving Bauer was wrought a warm at

1617
01:35:18.800 --> 01:35:19.479
the Indian Bar.

1618
01:35:19.720 --> 01:35:22.359
I'll never forget that he was the fattest Indian I

1619
01:35:22.439 --> 01:35:25.960
ever saw. I can still hear him now. What a

1620
01:35:26.039 --> 01:35:28.640
woman can see by the fiery eyes of the captain.

1621
01:35:29.239 --> 01:35:30.199
Angry is he.

1622
01:35:30.279 --> 01:35:30.800
In his heart?

1623
01:35:31.239 --> 01:35:32.560
But the heart of the brave.

1624
01:35:32.800 --> 01:35:34.960
What a woman is not afraid of the scond.

1625
01:35:34.960 --> 01:35:36.920
And then you handed him a bag full of bullets

1626
01:35:36.920 --> 01:35:40.720
and he dropped them and yelled arms and his Indian

1627
01:35:40.800 --> 01:35:42.000
headdress fell.

1628
01:35:41.840 --> 01:35:44.039
Off, and Missus Mavedy was so mad.

1629
01:35:44.920 --> 01:35:46.760
And then we went out and it was snowy.

1630
01:35:47.319 --> 01:35:48.920
Oh, but that was a little bit of a snow,

1631
01:35:49.119 --> 01:35:51.239
not like the big one, not a bit like.

1632
01:35:51.279 --> 01:35:51.800
The big one.

1633
01:35:52.319 --> 01:35:55.760
I remember MoMA was just lighting the lamps and I

1634
01:35:55.880 --> 01:35:59.000
looked out the window and I saw the first flakes

1635
01:35:59.079 --> 01:36:04.760
coming down, and I said, oh, Mama, the old woman's.

1636
01:36:04.399 --> 01:36:05.159
Picking your gee.

1637
01:36:07.359 --> 01:36:08.960
My Grandma always used to say just that.

1638
01:36:09.279 --> 01:36:13.159
Everybody did when it started to snow. And I remember

1639
01:36:13.239 --> 01:36:15.079
how I wanted to go out with my new sled

1640
01:36:15.199 --> 01:36:18.520
that I got for Christmas, and my dad wouldn't let.

1641
01:36:18.560 --> 01:36:20.640
Me, and there wasn't snow enough.

1642
01:36:20.880 --> 01:36:26.520
I knew it, but I was so disappointed, and I

1643
01:36:26.560 --> 01:36:30.520
sat for the window and looked out bald and bald.

1644
01:36:30.960 --> 01:36:32.319
So my dad spanked me.

1645
01:36:33.239 --> 01:36:34.560
I had to carry in the cold.

1646
01:36:35.359 --> 01:36:37.600
That was one time I didn't mind it because it

1647
01:36:37.720 --> 01:36:40.840
was snowing and it got dark so quick. We sat

1648
01:36:40.880 --> 01:36:42.720
by the snow after supper and Mama read us, what

1649
01:36:42.800 --> 01:36:43.800
are your snowbomba?

1650
01:36:44.439 --> 01:36:45.239
I remember you too.

1651
01:36:45.560 --> 01:36:47.399
It the next day of the day after New Year's and.

1652
01:36:47.520 --> 01:36:49.479
We finally got off see you.

1653
01:36:49.800 --> 01:36:52.600
It was so high, almost at the top of the fence.

1654
01:36:53.640 --> 01:36:55.760
Mama said not to go far because it was snowing

1655
01:36:55.840 --> 01:36:56.279
so hard.

1656
01:36:57.760 --> 01:36:59.760
Remember they didn't want me to go out at all,

1657
01:37:00.039 --> 01:37:04.199
that i'd get lost, but I said I was going

1658
01:37:04.279 --> 01:37:04.800
to be with you.

1659
01:37:05.760 --> 01:37:10.359
With Ted and Keed's a big boy. He got lost.

1660
01:37:11.359 --> 01:37:13.239
We lived on South Fifth Street, then, didn't we.

1661
01:37:15.159 --> 01:37:18.000
The houses were trying to far apart and trying to

1662
01:37:18.399 --> 01:37:21.239
back from the street. There were big trees on each

1663
01:37:21.279 --> 01:37:23.119
side of the streets that almost met in the middle,

1664
01:37:23.159 --> 01:37:25.560
and it kept the snow from getting too deep out

1665
01:37:25.600 --> 01:37:28.600
in the street. I dragged you along on your sled,

1666
01:37:29.920 --> 01:37:32.560
me with my new twenty two rifle I got for Christmas.

1667
01:37:33.600 --> 01:37:35.000
There was hardly anybody on the street.

1668
01:37:35.880 --> 01:37:38.279
Everything was so white, so quiet.

1669
01:37:40.199 --> 01:37:43.720
We heard sleigh bells. Remember it was mister the male

1670
01:37:43.760 --> 01:37:46.840
man in this cutter. Yeah, it wasn't a pretty kate.

1671
01:37:46.880 --> 01:37:47.960
How that old horse a hit?

1672
01:37:48.079 --> 01:37:49.680
Who her name was?

1673
01:37:49.880 --> 01:37:50.720
It's right, queen?

1674
01:37:51.600 --> 01:37:54.600
Oh, Queen's boots made the snow fly without making any

1675
01:37:54.600 --> 01:37:55.159
noise at all.

1676
01:37:55.960 --> 01:37:57.359
Why were the sound of the sleigh bells?

1677
01:37:57.520 --> 01:37:59.800
We got out of his road with a different dad down.

1678
01:38:00.039 --> 01:38:04.399
I just kind of all just bundled up. Yeah, it

1679
01:38:04.520 --> 01:38:07.600
was cold too, wasn't it. We were bundled up too.

1680
01:38:08.159 --> 01:38:09.600
I had on my red tassel cap.

1681
01:38:09.680 --> 01:38:12.640
I remember you had on that little squirrel skin muff

1682
01:38:12.680 --> 01:38:17.600
and red bittons. We were seven years old, so happy.

1683
01:38:19.479 --> 01:38:22.399
It was a long time ago. Don't mind how the

1684
01:38:22.479 --> 01:38:24.640
snow was coming down. You could almost see it getting

1685
01:38:24.720 --> 01:38:27.640
deeper and deeper. We could hardly tell where we were.

1686
01:38:28.520 --> 01:38:31.319
Was that Mars this house there on the right, or

1687
01:38:31.399 --> 01:38:32.199
was it walf Myers?

1688
01:38:34.600 --> 01:38:35.600
Just fun, wasn't a cake?

1689
01:38:37.239 --> 01:38:40.279
Just the two of us alone together in the great,

1690
01:38:40.520 --> 01:38:48.479
big white world. And then I began to get a

1691
01:38:48.479 --> 01:38:49.000
little worried.

1692
01:38:49.760 --> 01:38:51.399
The wind was starting to blow pretty hard.

1693
01:38:51.840 --> 01:38:52.760
I couldn't see a thing.

1694
01:38:54.039 --> 01:38:55.800
I turned around cold to you, I said, Katie, we

1695
01:38:55.920 --> 01:38:56.880
better turn around.

1696
01:38:56.640 --> 01:38:58.000
And get back.

1697
01:39:00.039 --> 01:39:02.640
And turning around and go back. I can't see where

1698
01:39:02.640 --> 01:39:03.119
I'm gone.

1699
01:39:03.560 --> 01:39:04.319
Yeah he can.

1700
01:39:05.039 --> 01:39:08.119
No, I'm not scared. I mean we might get lost,

1701
01:39:08.159 --> 01:39:11.520
and you know what where I don't want to get

1702
01:39:11.600 --> 01:39:16.079
no spanking. Uh ye might be wrong staff here, Yes

1703
01:39:16.279 --> 01:39:20.000

01:39:35.840 --> 01:39:37.199
Holy, I don't know where I am.

1711
01:39:37.920 --> 01:39:38.680
I don't even laugh.

1712
01:39:39.479 --> 01:39:43.079
No, we ain't lost here, but I want to know

1713

01:41:47.319 --> 01:41:48.479
Oh did you fall down?

1747
01:41:48.800 --> 01:41:49.279
It's not.

1748
01:41:52.119 --> 01:41:54.159
Very taty pash.

1749
01:41:54.800 --> 01:42:00.760
You're scared, you know, my hom the sidewalks here, No

1750
01:42:01.079 --> 01:42:05.520
it is, it's the other way, all right, let's see

1751
01:42:05.680 --> 01:42:07.119
it's right over there.

1752
01:42:08.359 --> 01:42:11.399
She's the snow wrong right up and then we really

1753
01:42:11.560 --> 01:42:16.039
could see. Oh, I'm just coming up perriage and need

1754
01:42:16.159 --> 01:42:16.760
to see.

1755
01:42:17.159 --> 01:42:18.680
She's all in the snow.

1756
01:42:20.039 --> 01:42:21.560
So you need a fight.

1757
01:42:23.159 --> 01:42:24.399
I can't see anything.

1758
01:42:25.439 --> 01:42:27.000
I'm getting awful.

1759
01:42:27.239 --> 01:42:31.239
Page, put your arms around me. I don't think I

1760
01:42:31.319 --> 01:42:36.000
could look another step. You want to stop and rest

1761
01:42:36.520 --> 01:42:38.279
snow wellness.

1762
01:42:38.600 --> 01:42:43.039
When me get to the sidewalk, fies hay on me.

1763
01:42:43.159 --> 01:42:46.319
Then it's this way you you're.

1764
01:42:46.199 --> 01:42:48.199
Going out, It's this way.

1765
01:42:50.319 --> 01:42:51.920
And then the wind came up stronger.

1766
01:42:52.560 --> 01:42:56.680
The snow was a solid white wall before, because it's true,

1767
01:42:56.680 --> 01:42:59.520
we were both very small, but nevertheless it was a

1768
01:42:59.600 --> 01:43:02.880
deep so oh, I'm going deeper by the second. I

1769
01:43:02.960 --> 01:43:05.319
don't know how long we wandered, but my legs were

1770
01:43:05.319 --> 01:43:06.239
getting off retired.

1771
01:43:07.039 --> 01:43:08.119
I was staggering a little.

1772
01:43:08.680 --> 01:43:11.119
The lede seemed to be dragging us backward as we

1773
01:43:11.199 --> 01:43:17.079
struggle along. And I admit that I hid the intrepid explorer.

1774
01:43:17.760 --> 01:43:19.319
And I was very close to tears.

1775
01:43:20.520 --> 01:43:22.920
Only the thought of Kate's reaction to my tears kept

1776
01:43:22.960 --> 01:43:24.399
me from busting out bawling.

1777
01:43:26.079 --> 01:43:27.600
And then I smacked full force.

1778
01:43:27.640 --> 01:43:29.159
And there's something colid and I saw on.

1779
01:43:29.279 --> 01:43:32.279
Me in sid Oh, who's tone?

1780
01:43:32.600 --> 01:43:36.359
I've rubbed in my head? Now I've bumped into a tree.

1781
01:43:36.960 --> 01:43:39.600
I see last I here?

1782
01:43:40.560 --> 01:43:46.439
Oh, well, anyway, that's on the sidewalk. Now we'll see

1783
01:43:46.479 --> 01:43:49.239
what we all lady, is we nest on somebody you do?

1784
01:43:49.840 --> 01:43:50.199
Somebody?

1785
01:43:50.199 --> 01:43:54.800
You'll take us home? I rose her, I'll get some

1786
01:43:55.159 --> 01:43:58.439
arnic or something. People in the house. Yes, let's play.

1787
01:43:58.560 --> 01:43:59.319
The half.

1788
01:44:00.640 --> 01:44:03.560
Light up here has to be right up here.

1789
01:44:03.840 --> 01:44:05.439
Maybe it's graduation and high.

1790
01:44:05.680 --> 01:44:06.760
Yeah, that's still.

1791
01:44:10.479 --> 01:44:11.079
How do you know.

1792
01:44:12.640 --> 01:44:13.319
How well?

1793
01:44:13.439 --> 01:44:14.239
Whoever it is?

1794
01:44:14.479 --> 01:44:18.760
Hi, now listen, did you hear something?

1795
01:44:19.520 --> 01:44:28.880
Oh God, maybe I'm play a girl. I never had

1796
01:44:28.920 --> 01:44:30.840
such a welcome sound in all my life.

1797
01:44:31.760 --> 01:44:32.399
Did you okay?

1798
01:44:32.960 --> 01:44:33.720
I should say not.

1799
01:44:35.000 --> 01:44:36.000
I know what I thought.

1800
01:44:37.199 --> 01:44:39.119
A nice, great, big red.

1801
01:44:39.039 --> 01:44:41.359
Hot stove and me sitting just as close to.

1802
01:44:41.439 --> 01:44:45.039
It as I could without bursting into flames and steam

1803
01:44:45.279 --> 01:44:48.680
rising up from our wet clothes, and a good smell

1804
01:44:48.760 --> 01:44:52.640
of coffee and fresh baked bread coming from the kitchen.

1805
01:44:52.760 --> 01:44:52.960
Yeah.

1806
01:44:53.039 --> 01:44:55.560
I thought about coffee too, even though my mother had

1807
01:44:55.600 --> 01:44:59.000
never let me taste it. And I thought, Hi, maybe

1808
01:44:59.039 --> 01:45:02.520
they'll have something oyster stew. Only it's kind of earlier

1809
01:45:02.520 --> 01:45:05.199
in the day for people to have oyster stew. That's

1810
01:45:05.279 --> 01:45:05.920
birre tonight.

1811
01:45:07.039 --> 01:45:10.960
But maybe a cup of cocoas they'll probably the Albert

1812
01:45:11.079 --> 01:45:14.720
Morris or Willie Jnson eat a bowlander to help drink

1813
01:45:14.760 --> 01:45:17.319
the cocoa, eat the oyster stew if they have any,

1814
01:45:18.319 --> 01:45:18.880
can I tell you?

1815
01:45:18.960 --> 01:45:20.920
I just crashed my way through the snow toward the

1816
01:45:20.960 --> 01:45:22.359
sound of that voice we heard calling.

1817
01:45:23.319 --> 01:45:25.159
Then suddenly Katie yelled, I see the hole.

1818
01:45:26.960 --> 01:45:30.079
Hi, Hi, I see.

1819
01:45:31.840 --> 01:45:34.359
Who's I can't tell.

1820
01:45:35.079 --> 01:45:43.359
Oh, you're the steps, Hollo, there is anybody? They went inside,

1821
01:45:43.479 --> 01:45:45.479
so I seem they're going to stand out here in

1822
01:45:45.520 --> 01:45:46.319
the snow and they.

1823
01:45:46.239 --> 01:45:50.520
Don't have food, so well not get.

1824
01:45:54.680 --> 01:45:54.840
Hum.

1825
01:45:58.319 --> 01:45:59.960
Maybe they went into the other.

1826
01:46:02.119 --> 01:46:02.680
Very often.

1827
01:46:03.479 --> 01:46:08.079
Come on, come on, I can't see you all there.

1828
01:46:15.279 --> 01:46:16.600
There wasn't any nice.

1829
01:46:16.439 --> 01:46:17.640
Big red hot story.

1830
01:46:17.960 --> 01:46:23.279
There wasn't any oyster stewl either of coffee col cold.

1831
01:46:24.039 --> 01:46:26.520
There wasn't anything. The house was empty.

1832
01:46:28.560 --> 01:46:30.760
Katie and I walked into the big, bare, empty room,

1833
01:46:31.640 --> 01:46:33.359
and it was almost as cold in air as there

1834
01:46:33.399 --> 01:46:38.680
wasn't outside, only of course it wasn't snowing. But now

1835
01:46:38.720 --> 01:46:40.359
we could hear the sound of the snow on the

1836
01:46:40.399 --> 01:46:43.560
windows and its soft, little padding sound, the.

1837
01:46:43.600 --> 01:46:47.319
Sounds you wouldn't hear ordinarily. There was a loud in

1838
01:46:47.439 --> 01:46:48.359
the beating of our.

1839
01:46:48.279 --> 01:46:51.279
Hearts, and we just stood there.

1840
01:46:53.520 --> 01:46:56.439
Katie was still sniffing, and I admit I didn't feel

1841
01:46:56.520 --> 01:47:01.199
much like Commodore Perry because the house was empty, you see,

1842
01:47:02.039 --> 01:47:07.079
And there wasn't an empty house anywhere on South fifth Street. Mars's,

1843
01:47:07.640 --> 01:47:11.199
Bob Myers, Reverend Bowman's, Ball Andrews.

1844
01:47:10.920 --> 01:47:12.960
And Willie Jensen's and Judge Curns.

1845
01:47:14.479 --> 01:47:15.600
But no empty house.

1846
01:47:16.439 --> 01:47:17.079
Where are we?

1847
01:47:18.000 --> 01:47:21.279
And I couldn't think where we are at all? I

1848
01:47:21.399 --> 01:47:24.319
knew we were on South fifth Street, but I didn't

1849
01:47:24.359 --> 01:47:24.720
know where.

1850
01:47:25.680 --> 01:47:27.800
Explorer is always wandering through.

1851
01:47:28.319 --> 01:47:31.159
And I looked around. There wasn't a thing in the room,

1852
01:47:31.399 --> 01:47:35.840
not a chair or a table, not anything, but the.

1853
01:47:35.920 --> 01:47:39.399
Room seemed somehow to look as if somebody lived there anyway,

1854
01:47:41.199 --> 01:47:43.720
And I said to Katie, I don't know where we are.

1855
01:47:44.000 --> 01:47:49.039
Maybe we better get out of here. Throng to stay

1856
01:47:49.079 --> 01:47:50.359
a minute and try to get warm.

1857
01:47:51.159 --> 01:47:52.439
We better not stay your room.

1858
01:47:52.960 --> 01:47:56.439
I'm cold, woll let's.

1859
01:47:56.359 --> 01:47:58.600
Sit down in the corner and try to get warm.

1860
01:48:00.119 --> 01:48:04.079
Lease through than any wind, no wonder go no, but yes,

1861
01:48:04.720 --> 01:48:07.319
my goodness, will have to take with us to go home.

1862
01:48:07.439 --> 01:48:11.840
Maybe I come looking for it here anyway? How could

1863
01:48:11.840 --> 01:48:14.720
we find our way home again? I could find it.

1864
01:48:15.239 --> 01:48:18.319
I found this house, didn't I you'll hit yourself on

1865
01:48:18.439 --> 01:48:18.920
a tree.

1866
01:48:19.239 --> 01:48:24.159
Then I found it though, okay, put your arms around me.

1867
01:48:25.079 --> 01:48:30.800
Why hold well, put your arms around me. I'm cold, fool.

1868
01:48:31.439 --> 01:48:34.159
Let's let's put our arms around to each other.

1869
01:48:35.039 --> 01:48:39.479
Oh all right, I'm hungry.

1870
01:48:40.359 --> 01:48:43.800
Oh my mama was making sure.

1871
01:48:44.560 --> 01:48:46.600
I'll stop at your house when we go back.

1872
01:48:47.239 --> 01:48:48.279
Maybe your mother will.

1873
01:48:48.159 --> 01:48:48.600
Give me some.

1874
01:48:49.199 --> 01:48:52.560
I sure wish we had some now, so stop thinking

1875
01:48:52.600 --> 01:48:54.800
about it. I surely shake cold.

1876
01:48:56.600 --> 01:48:57.720
I want to go home.

1877
01:48:58.199 --> 01:49:01.000
Oh shut up, I want shut up? I want and

1878
01:49:01.119 --> 01:49:04.439
go home. Katie lives, and who can't go home while

1879
01:49:04.439 --> 01:49:08.119
it's snowing? So hold lord, stuff snowing? I don't know

1880
01:49:09.079 --> 01:49:11.680
when the old woman finishes picking her geese as folly?

1881
01:49:13.199 --> 01:49:15.159
Who canting?

1882
01:49:15.279 --> 01:49:15.920
Somebody come and.

1883
01:49:15.960 --> 01:49:16.600
Looking for us?

1884
01:49:16.840 --> 01:49:19.159
You see Katy still as a braid?

1885
01:49:19.239 --> 01:49:19.960
Is that you're dead?

1886
01:49:20.159 --> 01:49:20.920
I'm based?

1887
01:49:21.439 --> 01:49:23.319
Who who is this house?

1888
01:49:23.439 --> 01:49:24.000
You? It is?

1889
01:49:25.640 --> 01:49:25.960
Hello?

1890
01:49:29.479 --> 01:49:34.800
Oh I find or somebody calling for the few children?

1891
01:49:35.239 --> 01:49:37.000
Yes, ma'am, yes, ma'am.

1892
01:49:37.640 --> 01:49:40.279
Well you're all right now, so stop squalling.

1893
01:49:40.520 --> 01:49:42.840
I'm not squalling. I'm just cold.

1894
01:49:43.520 --> 01:49:48.760
Huh, Well go down, we're cold, are you so?

1895
01:49:48.920 --> 01:49:49.039
Am?

1896
01:49:49.079 --> 01:49:52.920
I excuse me, ma'am. We got lost and we'd go

1897
01:49:53.239 --> 01:49:53.800
where we are?

1898
01:49:54.119 --> 01:49:55.359
Who are you in my house?

1899
01:49:55.640 --> 01:49:56.239
Yes, ma'am?

1900
01:49:56.960 --> 01:50:00.560
But we go long. I mean, is this so the street?

1901
01:50:01.119 --> 01:50:01.840
No, it isn't.

1902
01:50:02.159 --> 01:50:09.239
Slowly, you'd be surprised. Children, how I can go home? Well,

1903
01:50:09.359 --> 01:50:12.520
you can't go home right now, Katie, So you and

1904
01:50:12.640 --> 01:50:14.319
Teddy might as well come along and help me with

1905
01:50:14.399 --> 01:50:16.880
my work. Well, don't you want to?

1906
01:50:17.840 --> 01:50:20.279
Well what kind of world means?

1907
01:50:20.840 --> 01:50:22.840
Why I'm picking the feathers off my geese?

1908
01:50:25.720 --> 01:50:26.880
Well, sir, you know what.

1909
01:50:28.119 --> 01:50:31.640
There was another room, and there were well, it seemed

1910
01:50:31.680 --> 01:50:34.760
like a million white geese stacked up out there, and

1911
01:50:34.920 --> 01:50:37.720
she put us to work without another word. Did you

1912
01:50:37.800 --> 01:50:40.920
ever put geese or pluck him or whatever you call

1913
01:50:40.960 --> 01:50:43.319
it when you're part of the country geese almost as

1914
01:50:43.359 --> 01:50:44.600
big as yourself, geese that.

1915
01:50:44.640 --> 01:50:49.119
Didn't especially want to be plucked, I guess not. But

1916
01:50:49.319 --> 01:50:52.720
we did, kt and me, didn't you, Kate?

1917
01:50:53.760 --> 01:50:54.560
We certainly did.

1918
01:50:55.520 --> 01:50:59.760
And it was so cold. She was a nice old

1919
01:51:01.119 --> 01:51:01.439
wasn't she.

1920
01:51:01.520 --> 01:51:04.119
Teddy called, my name's ted.

1921
01:51:05.520 --> 01:51:07.920
And it got darks and there wasn't much night, and

1922
01:51:08.039 --> 01:51:10.439
we just sat there on the floor kicking the geese,

1923
01:51:10.880 --> 01:51:13.920
and the old woman talked to us so nice, My,

1924
01:51:14.119 --> 01:51:15.039
how nice she was.

1925
01:51:15.159 --> 01:51:15.199
You.

1926
01:51:15.239 --> 01:51:18.319
You see, if you're keep working like that, you won't

1927
01:51:18.359 --> 01:51:21.840
feel the cold so much. Kitty, I do feel it though. Well,

1928
01:51:21.920 --> 01:51:24.680
if you stayed home like your mother wanted you too,

1929
01:51:24.720 --> 01:51:25.840
you wouldn't have to be doing.

1930
01:51:25.920 --> 01:51:28.359
All this work, and you wouldn't be so cold.

1931
01:51:28.520 --> 01:51:31.680
But I wanted to go out and play. I was

1932
01:51:31.840 --> 01:51:32.119
with her.

1933
01:51:32.199 --> 01:51:34.880
I wouldn't let anything happened to her, but you did.

1934
01:51:35.520 --> 01:51:36.279
You got lost.

1935
01:51:36.560 --> 01:51:39.039
Well, I wanted a fade with Teddy.

1936
01:51:39.640 --> 01:51:42.680
Ted You like Teddy, don't you, Kitty?

1937
01:51:43.039 --> 01:51:43.239
Yes?

1938
01:51:43.399 --> 01:51:44.840
Now you like her?

1939
01:51:44.960 --> 01:51:45.159
Tim?

1940
01:51:45.680 --> 01:51:45.920
Wow?

1941
01:51:46.920 --> 01:51:47.319
You too?

1942
01:51:47.840 --> 01:51:49.000
Going to get married when you grew up?

1943
01:51:49.399 --> 01:51:49.600
Whoa?

1944
01:51:50.479 --> 01:51:54.319
Well, ru, I was gonna be a fireman and firemen

1945
01:51:54.359 --> 01:51:55.640
aren't usually home much.

1946
01:51:56.039 --> 01:51:59.279
I guess I don't think you want to be a fireman, Teddy.

1947
01:51:59.720 --> 01:52:03.399
I one wouldn't want to be one. Why too warm?

1948
01:52:04.079 --> 01:52:05.079
You like cold?

1949
01:52:05.479 --> 01:52:05.520
You?

1950
01:52:05.680 --> 01:52:05.880
Bet?

1951
01:52:06.520 --> 01:52:06.640
Hi?

1952
01:52:06.840 --> 01:52:10.760
John Kay? Aren't you pretty many when you grow up?

1953
01:52:11.119 --> 01:52:16.039
I haven't decided, Well you are, Teddy? I can promise

1954
01:52:16.119 --> 01:52:16.800
to that, Katie.

1955
01:52:17.399 --> 01:52:21.520
I know unless unless why unless you freeze to death?

1956
01:52:23.079 --> 01:52:27.600
Oh well, I'll try not to let you freeze to death.

1957
01:52:27.800 --> 01:52:30.760
Oh agree, and less grand free.

1958
01:52:30.680 --> 01:52:33.239
Cold now and you'll keep right on working. There's lots

1959
01:52:33.359 --> 01:52:34.560
more geese to be picked.

1960
01:52:35.039 --> 01:52:36.960
This is going to be known for years as the

1961
01:52:37.079 --> 01:52:39.159
time of the Big snow, and I need all the

1962
01:52:39.199 --> 01:52:39.520
help I.

1963
01:52:39.520 --> 01:52:39.920
Can get it.

1964
01:52:40.399 --> 01:52:42.520
Do you always pick your geese on it snows?

1965
01:52:42.680 --> 01:52:45.600
Of course, that's why it snows. You must have a

1966
01:52:45.760 --> 01:52:51.079
lot of geese, hundreds thousands all over the world. Keeps

1967
01:52:51.119 --> 01:52:51.800
me pretty busy.

1968
01:52:52.239 --> 01:52:53.800
You don't have any GeSe in Africa?

1969
01:52:54.039 --> 01:52:54.840
That ware hot.

1970
01:52:54.960 --> 01:52:57.880
Oh, I have them there, Teddy, But they're way up

1971
01:52:58.000 --> 01:52:59.920
high up on top of the mountains.

1972
01:53:00.119 --> 01:53:01.439
There's always snow up there.

1973
01:53:02.279 --> 01:53:03.640
Do you have lots of helpers?

1974
01:53:03.880 --> 01:53:08.159
No, you're the first I ever had my head.

1975
01:53:08.199 --> 01:53:10.279
He's enough to light here.

1976
01:53:10.600 --> 01:53:11.600
We need him, Katie.

1977
01:53:12.159 --> 01:53:13.920
I'll tell you though, I think we might as well

1978
01:53:13.960 --> 01:53:14.479
get rid.

1979
01:53:14.359 --> 01:53:14.960
Of this bunch.

1980
01:53:15.680 --> 01:53:17.720
Open the window and the window blow them out?

1981
01:53:17.800 --> 01:53:18.800
Can I open the window?

1982
01:53:18.960 --> 01:53:19.199
Sure?

1983
01:53:20.920 --> 01:53:20.960
No?

1984
01:53:21.079 --> 01:53:24.159
No, no, not that one. This one the whims from

1985
01:53:24.199 --> 01:53:32.720
the north, and the wing.

1986
01:53:32.720 --> 01:53:35.239
Came reaching right in, and the white feathers threw out

1987
01:53:35.319 --> 01:53:37.800
the open window with it. Katie and I gathered up

1988
01:53:37.840 --> 01:53:40.359
great armloads of the feathers and tossed them out the window,

1989
01:53:40.399 --> 01:53:42.560
and the laugh and laughed. If the rings briled them

1990
01:53:42.600 --> 01:53:46.039
high in the area, they seem to murtherfly. The air

1991
01:53:46.119 --> 01:53:48.199
was full of white flurries. With him in the dust

1992
01:53:48.239 --> 01:53:48.760
house side.

1993
01:53:48.840 --> 01:53:51.479
I think the left, some more on the left.

1994
01:53:52.880 --> 01:53:55.760
Gracious, we did that just in time, didn't we.

1995
01:53:56.039 --> 01:53:59.720
It's pretty near show you know what I've got a

1996
01:54:00.000 --> 01:54:01.640
there's people that ever helped us to know.

1997
01:54:02.960 --> 01:54:06.000
You certainly are children, and you're doing a very.

1998
01:54:05.920 --> 01:54:06.600
Good job of it.

1999
01:54:07.359 --> 01:54:08.680
I don't know but what I'll have to call on

2000
01:54:08.760 --> 01:54:09.720
you again to help me.

2001
01:54:10.119 --> 01:54:11.680
Until we get warm though.

2002
01:54:12.319 --> 01:54:14.079
Well, I've hand.

2003
01:54:13.960 --> 01:54:16.600
Lived pretty well all by myself all these years.

2004
01:54:16.840 --> 01:54:20.640
So have you been doing it a long time?

2005
01:54:20.800 --> 01:54:20.960
Now?

2006
01:54:21.720 --> 01:54:21.920
Ever?

2007
01:54:22.239 --> 01:54:23.760
So long? Two?

2008
01:54:23.880 --> 01:54:25.239
Yea longer than that?

2009
01:54:26.119 --> 01:54:26.319
Ten?

2010
01:54:26.439 --> 01:54:27.640
Yeah, twenty?

2011
01:54:28.039 --> 01:54:29.960
Why I've been doing it ever since?

2012
01:54:31.239 --> 01:54:33.399
Well, just ever since?

2013
01:54:34.920 --> 01:54:35.840
Have you got a name?

2014
01:54:36.159 --> 01:54:36.359
Oh?

2015
01:54:36.520 --> 01:54:36.720
Yes?

2016
01:54:37.000 --> 01:54:37.640
Would you talk?

2017
01:54:38.640 --> 01:54:38.840
Well?

2018
01:54:39.399 --> 01:54:41.880
When I lived on that mountain in Greece, they used

2019
01:54:41.880 --> 01:54:44.359
to call me the met Her. I was pretty important.

2020
01:54:44.399 --> 01:54:49.520
Then many Indians they called me the comas Comas.

2021
01:54:50.239 --> 01:54:51.720
Wait, your high life is good?

2022
01:54:52.319 --> 01:54:52.800
Of course?

2023
01:54:53.159 --> 01:54:56.000
Suppose I get all these Geese Hia, Walter's a fine hunter.

2024
01:54:56.399 --> 01:54:58.640
Why do you have any more names?

2025
01:54:58.840 --> 01:54:59.439
Oh? Yes?

2026
01:55:00.159 --> 01:55:03.319
Up in the Northland they called me free, and the

2027
01:55:03.439 --> 01:55:04.640
Japanese people call me.

2028
01:55:05.039 --> 01:55:05.760
I'm a rutsall.

2029
01:55:07.720 --> 01:55:10.119

2032
01:55:15.439 --> 01:55:15.560
Oh?

2033
01:55:15.760 --> 01:55:16.000
Sure?

2034
01:55:19.039 --> 01:55:21.199
Don't you ever gets coldness?

2035
01:55:22.199 --> 01:55:22.399
Miss?

2036
01:55:23.199 --> 01:55:27.399
I'd rather be called nicoleness. No, I never get cold gee,

2037
01:55:27.880 --> 01:55:30.439
I do well. You should have stayed home.

2038
01:55:31.399 --> 01:55:33.479
Do you think I get spangy.

2039
01:55:33.159 --> 01:55:33.960
When I get hurt?

2040
01:55:34.359 --> 01:55:34.399
No?

2041
01:55:34.720 --> 01:55:37.800
I don't think so, Katie. I think I could promise

2042
01:55:37.880 --> 01:55:38.479
you you won't.

2043
01:55:38.800 --> 01:55:42.399
Well, then I'm glad we did get lost and founders.

2044
01:55:42.000 --> 01:55:45.720
Prices all mine. I don't get a looking geez. It's

01:55:45.840 --> 01:55:46.880

01:55:47.159 --> 01:55:49.600
Yes, and I'm as go outside and get small geese.

2047
01:55:49.640 --> 01:55:51.279
I have to keep working children, you.

2048
01:55:51.359 --> 01:55:53.760
Know, yes, but I like to go home please.

2049
01:55:53.840 --> 01:55:56.560
Oh plenty of times for that, Teddy. We've got work

2050
01:55:56.640 --> 01:55:56.800
to do.

2051
01:55:57.920 --> 01:55:59.920
My mamaway gives me and Nicholas.

2052
01:56:00.079 --> 01:56:03.079
I work hard. Do you earn as many nickels?

2053
01:56:03.239 --> 01:56:03.560
Teddy?

2054
01:56:03.960 --> 01:56:04.199
Wow?

2055
01:56:05.279 --> 01:56:06.239
Not very many?

2056
01:56:06.399 --> 01:56:10.720
Really, I haven't got any nickels, yes, ma'am. And you

2057
01:56:10.960 --> 01:56:12.000
mustn't you know?

2058
01:56:12.439 --> 01:56:14.800
No, ma'am. But I'll give you something, Teddy for all

2059
01:56:14.840 --> 01:56:15.359
the work you did.

2060
01:56:15.439 --> 01:56:18.760
It you too, kitty, your ty, I'll be right fast.

2061
01:56:23.079 --> 01:56:26.720
I am kind of scared, Teddy, I am too, Katie.

2062
01:56:27.119 --> 01:56:27.680
How do we do?

2063
01:56:28.560 --> 01:56:29.000
I don't know.

2064
01:56:29.800 --> 01:56:30.840
I'm tired too.

2065
01:56:31.960 --> 01:56:35.319
Should I put my arms around your Katy. Yes, please,

2066
01:56:36.479 --> 01:56:40.520
I'm getting so sweety, so cold, said you don't go

2067
01:56:40.720 --> 01:56:44.079
to sleep, you'll please. I can't help, but I have

2068
01:56:44.359 --> 01:56:45.239
to go and sleep.

2069
01:56:45.439 --> 01:56:45.800
Teddy.

2070
01:56:46.079 --> 01:56:47.760
You don't please, Katie.

2071
01:56:48.720 --> 01:56:51.119
Whoa, you're tired.

2072
01:56:51.199 --> 01:56:53.560
I'm so sleepy.

2073
01:56:54.439 --> 01:57:00.439
You too, Teddy, I'm not very sleepy. Why you poor kids?

2074
01:57:01.239 --> 01:57:02.640
You work so hard?

2075
01:57:03.720 --> 01:57:05.199
You just go to sleep.

2076
01:57:06.680 --> 01:57:07.239
We're free.

2077
01:57:07.479 --> 01:57:08.640
You know you won't.

2078
01:57:09.840 --> 01:57:14.119
I'll cover you up with feathers less so calm.

2079
01:57:14.760 --> 01:57:23.640
They'll be nice, warm, soft, downy warm things. Here, put

2080
01:57:23.720 --> 01:57:31.279
your head on Teddy's arm, Katie ossip, Now these nice

2081
01:57:31.720 --> 01:57:38.720
fat geese with lots and lots of nice salt feathers,

2082
01:57:40.600 --> 01:57:46.439
lots and lots of nice white feathers.

2083
01:57:48.960 --> 01:57:52.279
Go to sleep, Teddy.

2084
01:57:53.800 --> 01:57:54.920
And Katy.

2085
01:57:57.039 --> 01:58:00.760
You said maybe you'd give us something to all the work.

2086
01:58:01.399 --> 01:58:01.680
Why?

2087
01:58:03.560 --> 01:58:05.000
Why, of course.

2088
01:58:06.680 --> 01:58:16.279
I gave my little grandson gifts. Here, Teddy, here's Katie.

2089
01:58:18.239 --> 01:58:21.840
Now, go to.

2090
01:58:23.800 --> 01:58:24.159
Sleep.

2091
01:58:27.000 --> 01:58:37.439
Thank you, thank you and your comas. Kiss me the night, Teddy, whoa,

2092
01:58:38.800 --> 01:58:39.680
Wipe your nose.

2093
01:58:46.359 --> 01:58:49.680
And the very last thing I remember was the feathers.

2094
01:58:50.960 --> 01:58:53.199
How they were all star shaped and crystal was not

2095
01:58:53.279 --> 01:58:53.720
at all like.

2096
01:58:53.760 --> 01:58:54.920
The feathers I've ever seen.

2097
01:58:57.399 --> 01:59:01.119
It was almost midnight on they founders Katy's father and mine,

2098
01:59:01.159 --> 01:59:02.720
and the blacksmith was to write.

2099
01:59:02.479 --> 01:59:04.159
In Arthur Donahue and his brother Harry.

2100
01:59:05.960 --> 01:59:09.319
And there wasn't any house there at all. There wasn't anything.

2101
01:59:10.800 --> 01:59:13.640
We were buried under a huge snowdrift and a vacant lot,

2102
01:59:14.680 --> 01:59:16.399
not one hundred feet from our backyard.

2103
01:59:18.520 --> 01:59:22.279
There wasn't any old woman either, just two kids.

2104
01:59:23.600 --> 01:59:25.560
We sleep in the snow in each other's arms.

2105
01:59:27.159 --> 01:59:29.000
I'm not frozen to death after all.

2106
01:59:30.079 --> 01:59:33.720
And they took us home, and we had our oyster

2107
01:59:33.920 --> 01:59:37.479
stew and our coke cone, and we sat at a

2108
01:59:37.520 --> 01:59:41.720
big stove, and then we slept.

2109
01:59:43.319 --> 01:59:50.199
We slept and slept, and.

2110
01:59:50.319 --> 01:59:53.039
Neither one of us ever did this about our Paris again,

2111
01:59:53.920 --> 01:59:55.199
goodly kid, well.

2112
01:59:55.199 --> 01:59:56.039
Hardly ever done.

2113
01:59:56.760 --> 01:59:59.680
But we never did tell anybody before because they wouldn't

2114
01:59:59.680 --> 02:00:01.680
have believed this. They have said it was a dream.

2115
02:00:02.680 --> 02:00:05.760
But how could we both dream the same dream?

2116
02:00:06.520 --> 02:00:09.720
And we we could get married, just as she's everywhere boom,

2117
02:00:10.159 --> 02:00:12.920
and we still have got that little red clay priestpipe,

2118
02:00:13.119 --> 02:00:14.000
just like Hiawatson.

2119
02:00:14.119 --> 02:00:15.399
I'm a little bull in all.

2120
02:00:16.600 --> 02:00:19.000
Besides it, wait a.

2121
02:00:19.000 --> 02:00:31.079

More snow.

2128

All right, Kitty and Katy, come on, we've got teeth

2129
02:00:56.279 --> 02:00:56.680
to pick.

2130
02:01:02.640 --> 02:01:08.119
M M.

2131
02:01:20.560 --> 02:01:24.039
The title of today's Quiet Please story is The Time

2132
02:01:24.279 --> 02:01:26.800
of the Big Snow, which was written and directed by

2133
02:01:26.880 --> 02:01:27.600
Willis Cooper.

2134
02:01:28.079 --> 02:01:30.520
The man who spoke to you was Ernest chap.

2135
02:01:30.720 --> 02:01:32.800
And Kate was Abby Lewis.

2136
02:01:34.119 --> 02:01:36.600
Jeddy was Sarah fussele.

2137
02:01:37.479 --> 02:01:41.039
Katie was played by Cecil Roy, and the old woman

2138
02:01:41.960 --> 02:01:45.960
was Vicky Buller. As usual, music for Choie Please is

2139
02:01:45.960 --> 02:01:49.039
played by Albert Berman. I'll for a word about next week.

2140
02:01:49.399 --> 02:01:51.079
I'll run a director Willis Cooper.

2141
02:01:51.560 --> 02:01:53.239
Thank you for listening to Quiet Please.

2142
02:01:54.199 --> 02:01:56.119
Next week I have a story for that I call

2143
02:01:56.720 --> 02:01:58.359
the biography of a character.

2144
02:02:02.800 --> 02:02:03.840
And so until next week.

2145
02:02:03.880 --> 02:02:08.680
At the same time, I am quietly yours, Ernest Chapel.

2146
02:02:14.680 --> 02:02:16.000
Now a listening reminder.

2152
02:02:38.399 --> 02:02:44.159
Well, my dear, I appreciate you spending this inclement time

2153
02:02:44.960 --> 02:02:48.640
with yours, truly, but now I think it's time for

2154
02:02:48.760 --> 02:02:54.239
you to return to your humble abode. Hopefully the pipes

2155
02:02:54.279 --> 02:02:59.520
are still piping and the heat is still bellowing. I'm

2156
02:02:59.560 --> 02:03:02.359
sure you'll be fine. But as you make your way

2157
02:03:02.439 --> 02:03:07.079
home in the cold, dark, icy reality all around us,

2158
02:03:07.800 --> 02:03:11.479
I do hope i'll see you again very soon. I'll

2159
02:03:11.560 --> 02:03:17.319
be here, same time, same place, and I do hope

2160
02:03:17.359 --> 02:03:22.119
you'll join me. But now make your way home, skate

2161
02:03:22.239 --> 02:03:25.640
if you have to. Soon you'll be in your cozy,

2162
02:03:25.800 --> 02:03:32.199
comfy bed, warmth, embracing, fending off the cold. But if

2163
02:03:32.239 --> 02:03:36.000
I may ask one last favor, as you close your

2164
02:03:36.079 --> 02:03:40.560
eyes and head away, be thankful for what you have.

2165
02:03:41.800 --> 02:03:42.880
I'll be seeing you

2166
02:04:00.199 --> 02:04:03.079
Lay call you your death
