My dear, the dead may rest easy—but the living rarely do.

Tonight, we unearth three chilling tales where suspicion creeps like a fog, justice arrives cloaked in night, and innocence proves no protection at all. Each story drips with dread, pulling you deeper into the shadows until the truth becomes just another grave waiting to be filled.

⚰️ Under Grave Suspicion
A small town funeral home. A body with secrets. A family that won’t stop asking questions… until it’s far too late.

🌒 Night Man
When the sun sets, he rises. A silent protector—or a silent predator? In a city rotting with fear, one man keeps score in blood.

🕊️ The Good Die Young
Youth doesn’t guarantee mercy. When the world turns on its most innocent, what’s left but vengeance?

So lean in, my dear.And if you feel someone watching… don’t turn around too quickly.They only move when you look away.

00:00:09.320 --> 00:00:13.039
Ah, so good of you to join me again, My dear,

2
00:00:14.320 --> 00:00:14.679
what's that?

3
00:00:15.439 --> 00:00:15.720
Oh?

4
00:00:15.759 --> 00:00:24.120
Well, I'm positively jovial. How are you good? Good?

5
00:00:24.879 --> 00:00:25.160
Well?

6
00:00:25.239 --> 00:00:28.160
Regardless, we're going to have a fine time to night

7
00:00:28.280 --> 00:00:31.239
as we get a little bit of a chill going

8
00:00:32.200 --> 00:00:36.039
during the hot summer months. I hear the sun is

9
00:00:36.479 --> 00:00:40.719
absolutely blazing as of late. Of course I wouldn't know,

10
00:00:40.840 --> 00:00:43.520
but that's not here nor there.

11
00:01:08.239 --> 00:01:32.959
Street Theater Presents come in. Welcome, I'm e. G. Marshall.

12
00:01:33.959 --> 00:01:37.879
Welcome to another hour of mystery and suspense, to a

13
00:01:38.000 --> 00:01:43.560
terrifying battle of wits. Our play poses a dilemma you

14
00:01:43.640 --> 00:01:48.120
have never faced or are likely to face in your lifetime,

15
00:01:49.719 --> 00:01:53.079
whether to commit the murder in your heart when your

16
00:01:53.120 --> 00:01:57.359
mind tells you to restrain yourself. Listen to what happened

17
00:01:57.359 --> 00:02:01.560
to one man, Thomas Drake, who did face that dilemma,

18
00:02:02.280 --> 00:02:08.479
and what he did about it. Professor Bowery, if you're

19
00:02:08.479 --> 00:02:11.120
a pand of memories, you've got to tell him to

20
00:02:11.240 --> 00:02:16.120
stay away from my wife. Really now, Drake, I don't

21
00:02:16.199 --> 00:02:18.719
like to interfere in the personal life of faculty. You

22
00:02:18.840 --> 00:02:22.120
must you must tell him, or I won't be responsible.

23
00:02:23.000 --> 00:02:27.319
I don't want to kill him, but I don't trust myself.

24
00:02:27.360 --> 00:02:31.159
Come now, Drake, Sensible people don't solve their marital problems

25
00:02:31.240 --> 00:02:45.840
like that with murder. Our mystery drama Under Grave Suspicion

26
00:02:46.599 --> 00:02:49.879
was written especially for the Mystery theater by Hank Warner

27
00:02:50.560 --> 00:02:54.639
and stars Ralph Bell. It is sponsored in part by

28
00:02:54.639 --> 00:02:59.039
the Kellogg Company, makers of Kellogg's Special Case cereal, and

29
00:02:59.120 --> 00:03:03.719
by Anheuser Busch Incorporated brewers. A Budweiser I'll be back

30
00:03:03.759 --> 00:03:05.439
shortly with that one.

31
00:03:09.560 --> 00:03:12.400
You've seen the Budweiser commercials on television, and maybe you've

32
00:03:12.439 --> 00:03:15.439
wondered how long people have been putting that famous Bud

33
00:03:15.479 --> 00:03:18.479
label on things. Well, not as long as the brewers

34
00:03:18.520 --> 00:03:21.719
of Bud have been putting things on the label, things

35
00:03:21.759 --> 00:03:25.840
like a list of Bud's most important ingredients quote brewed

36
00:03:25.879 --> 00:03:28.879
by our original process from the choicest hops, rice and

37
00:03:29.000 --> 00:03:33.240
best barley mob and things like the following statement, this

38
00:03:33.319 --> 00:03:33.599
is the.

39
00:03:33.560 --> 00:03:34.919
Famous Budweiser beer.

40
00:03:35.280 --> 00:03:37.800
We know of no brand produced by any other brewer

41
00:03:38.039 --> 00:03:41.639
which costs so much to brew and age. Our exclusive

42
00:03:41.639 --> 00:03:45.439
beechwood aging produces a taste of smoothness and a drinkability

43
00:03:45.719 --> 00:03:48.719
you will find in no other beer at any price.

44
00:03:49.599 --> 00:03:54.520
Unquote Yes, brewing beer right does make a difference. Read

45
00:03:54.599 --> 00:03:58.280
the bud label, taste the King of Beers and you'll

46
00:03:58.280 --> 00:04:00.879
agree when you say Budweiser.

47
00:04:01.400 --> 00:04:05.960
You said it all. And Isaac Bush Saint Louis.

48
00:04:09.599 --> 00:04:14.360

And we could go on all day.

Oh, here's what volunteers are reading right away.

The don't crawl over the rock, get into action.

62
00:05:03.040 --> 00:05:07.639
Oh this is the public service of this station and

63
00:05:07.759 --> 00:05:08.839
the Advertising Council.

64
00:05:20.600 --> 00:05:21.480
Have you ever.

65
00:05:21.279 --> 00:05:27.240
Returned home late one night and listened in the still darkness,

66
00:05:27.279 --> 00:05:31.879
tense and trembling, hoping and praying that you would not

67
00:05:32.079 --> 00:05:37.519
hear the whispered passions of your wife and the stranger,

68
00:05:38.639 --> 00:05:43.160
fearful that you could not would not control a blinding

69
00:05:43.439 --> 00:05:49.360
fury to kill that man getting out of the car

70
00:05:49.639 --> 00:05:53.439
on that dark, dead end road on the windswept bluff,

71
00:05:54.079 --> 00:05:58.680
overlooking the desolate Long Island Sound Beach. Hurrying by cloud

72
00:05:58.800 --> 00:06:02.279
veiled moonlight down the winding footpath through the scrub pines

73
00:06:02.319 --> 00:06:09.399
that brushed to his isolated cottage is Thomas Drake, despondent, depressed.

74
00:06:10.240 --> 00:06:14.199
I should have telephoned, given her some warning that i'd

75
00:06:14.199 --> 00:06:17.759
be home a night earlier, But deep down I had

76
00:06:17.759 --> 00:06:20.839
the feeling that I still couldn't trust her, and I

77
00:06:20.879 --> 00:06:25.000
had to find out. I hurried towards the cottage one

78
00:06:25.079 --> 00:06:28.160
rig whire there were no lights on, wondering whether she

79
00:06:28.240 --> 00:06:31.519
was asleep alone.

80
00:06:31.480 --> 00:06:31.759
Or with.

81
00:06:33.439 --> 00:06:36.279
I walked around from the back of the house across.

82
00:06:35.879 --> 00:06:41.680
The gravel mound toward the waterside portsteps, not caring whether

83
00:06:41.720 --> 00:06:45.439
the crunch of my footsteps could be heard inside. The

84
00:06:45.480 --> 00:06:48.959
only other sound was my pounding heart and the surf

85
00:06:49.160 --> 00:06:53.720
washing the loose gravel off the burns. The half moon

86
00:06:54.199 --> 00:06:58.639
slipped behind the bank of black clouds, and in the darkness,

87
00:06:58.839 --> 00:07:01.800
I shut over the shovel, lept lying on the gravel.

88
00:07:02.600 --> 00:07:07.279
I kicked it away. I went up the point steps

89
00:07:08.160 --> 00:07:11.879
to the front door. I trotted it was not locked,

90
00:07:13.839 --> 00:07:16.399
and I stepped inside and listened.

91
00:07:17.959 --> 00:07:25.879
I called out Marianne. The bedroom door was closed. I

92
00:07:25.959 --> 00:07:26.560
opened the door.

93
00:07:27.720 --> 00:07:33.920
I stared at the walls, which the ceilings flooded, an empty,

94
00:07:33.920 --> 00:07:34.519
made up bed.

95
00:07:36.000 --> 00:07:41.720
I went to the kitchen, turned on. The knife was

96
00:07:41.759 --> 00:07:43.160
swept and tidy.

97
00:07:43.759 --> 00:07:47.399
The count of the sink, the stowtop bare and dry,

98
00:07:48.639 --> 00:07:53.000
not a trace of food particles, no lingering, cooking odors,

99
00:07:53.800 --> 00:07:59.439
the dishmak dish, tongue bone dry. I needed to drink.

100
00:08:00.040 --> 00:08:03.279
Calmed down, and I reached for the bottle of bourbon

101
00:08:03.319 --> 00:08:10.160
in the kitchen. Cabiny poured myself a stiff one, wondering

102
00:08:10.959 --> 00:08:16.439
where she was. The drink only added fuel to my

103
00:08:16.519 --> 00:08:21.600
slow burn. I flushed with waves of anger. I had

104
00:08:21.600 --> 00:08:25.279
to get out in the air to think. I put

105
00:08:25.279 --> 00:08:27.800
out the house lights, carry the bottle in the grass

106
00:08:27.800 --> 00:08:35.440
of the porch, and settled down to wait. The cool

107
00:08:35.840 --> 00:08:40.240
onshore wind on my face, the moon playing hide and

108
00:08:40.240 --> 00:08:44.240
seek with the dark clouds, the lights of Connecticut blinking

109
00:08:44.279 --> 00:08:48.279
across ten miles of black water, the old field light,

110
00:08:48.360 --> 00:08:53.919
alternating beams of green and red. It was RESTful, but

111
00:08:54.000 --> 00:08:58.080
as I nursed the bourbon, I couldn't altogether get her

112
00:08:58.159 --> 00:09:02.480
out of my mind, my thoughts wandering back in time,

113
00:09:04.200 --> 00:09:08.559
wondering if she'd left me or would once.

114
00:09:08.320 --> 00:09:11.159
Again like the first time before we were married.

115
00:09:12.320 --> 00:09:17.360
We're living together in my apartment on Manhattan's swinging east Side.

116
00:09:17.960 --> 00:09:21.799
Two modern sensible singles, willing to give it a try.

117
00:09:26.960 --> 00:09:30.840
I had a job, and good job. I was a

118
00:09:30.919 --> 00:09:35.919
vice president with Electronics Engineering. I got home at night.

119
00:09:36.960 --> 00:09:40.279
It was Friday night, about eight o'clock as I let

120
00:09:40.320 --> 00:09:40.879
myself in.

121
00:09:41.480 --> 00:09:44.080
Yes, yes, I heard her talking on the phone.

122
00:09:44.200 --> 00:09:47.399
Come on after, Oh, ask the doorman to hold a cat.

123
00:09:49.279 --> 00:09:50.159
He just got home?

124
00:09:52.120 --> 00:09:53.559
Or who was that Jack Harrison?

125
00:09:54.519 --> 00:09:55.039
Of course?

126
00:09:55.840 --> 00:09:57.279
What else you know?

127
00:09:57.440 --> 00:10:00.320
I'm getting tired of his hanging around. Why did you

128
00:10:00.360 --> 00:10:01.519
tell him to stop calling you?

129
00:10:02.440 --> 00:10:02.960
He didn't.

130
00:10:03.799 --> 00:10:07.879
I called him. You look so surprised, Thomas.

131
00:10:08.600 --> 00:10:10.600
You don't have the time anymore for anything but dear

132
00:10:10.639 --> 00:10:12.320
old Electronics Engineering.

133
00:10:13.000 --> 00:10:14.799
We didn't phone me. You wouldn't be home for dinner,

134
00:10:14.879 --> 00:10:18.159
so I called him. There's a movie I want.

135
00:10:18.399 --> 00:10:20.240
That's the third time this week.

136
00:10:20.639 --> 00:10:23.480
Oh, I didn't know you were counting, Darling.

137
00:10:29.440 --> 00:10:35.159
I waited that night watching television, dozing fitfully.

138
00:10:36.080 --> 00:10:39.399
My mind going back to the smiles and looks they

139
00:10:39.399 --> 00:10:43.159
had exchanges they left. I could see them after the

140
00:10:43.159 --> 00:10:47.360
movies going to the Purple Comedy for nightcaps and the

141
00:10:47.360 --> 00:10:51.600
wild rock of the patting cougars, and then sense of

142
00:10:51.720 --> 00:10:57.240
stimulated bodies pulsating with savage beats to spend the night

143
00:10:57.960 --> 00:11:06.039
with him. I was awakened from my sleep in the

144
00:11:06.120 --> 00:11:09.000
chair by the buzzing TV set.

145
00:11:12.279 --> 00:11:13.240
It was four o'clock.

146
00:11:14.679 --> 00:11:17.399
I fought off the idea of phoning her at Harrison's apartment.

147
00:11:18.759 --> 00:11:23.039
I had no one but myself to blame. We had agreed,

148
00:11:23.279 --> 00:11:26.840
like two sensible moderns, if there'd be no strings, that

149
00:11:26.960 --> 00:11:30.399
we'd be free to live our own lives, and for

150
00:11:30.440 --> 00:11:34.159
the first time, I admitted to myself I didn't want

151
00:11:34.159 --> 00:11:41.240
that freedom. By ten o'clock that morning, I couldn't stand it.

152
00:11:42.200 --> 00:11:47.159
I phoned Harrison's apartment. There was no answer. I went

153
00:11:47.200 --> 00:11:49.240
down to the lobby reception desk to get the mail.

154
00:11:49.759 --> 00:11:52.279
It hadn't arrived yet, but the clerk handed me an

155
00:11:52.360 --> 00:11:55.879
unstamped envelope my name an apartment number on it in

156
00:11:55.960 --> 00:11:57.080
Mary Anne's handwriting.

157
00:11:57.799 --> 00:11:58.559
I tore it open.

158
00:12:00.039 --> 00:12:02.639
Dear, I'm sorry.

159
00:12:02.919 --> 00:12:04.519
I think it would be best for both of.

160
00:12:04.480 --> 00:12:05.960
Us to cod quits.

161
00:12:06.360 --> 00:12:07.200
I'm going away.

162
00:12:07.840 --> 00:12:11.399
There was no date on the plain white notepaper, no

163
00:12:11.480 --> 00:12:15.320
imprint of name and address, no forwarding address, just signed

164
00:12:15.840 --> 00:12:20.519
Mary Anne. I refuse to believe in. I hurried right

165
00:12:20.559 --> 00:12:24.279
back up to the apartment to have bedroom closets. Her

166
00:12:24.320 --> 00:12:30.000
clothes were gone. I got through the day somehow in

167
00:12:30.080 --> 00:12:33.519
a daze. But the next day, when I went out

168
00:12:33.559 --> 00:12:36.039
to get the sunlit paper and returned to the apartment,

169
00:12:38.399 --> 00:12:40.480
there she was unpacking.

170
00:12:41.720 --> 00:12:43.360
I changed my mind.

171
00:12:46.519 --> 00:12:50.600
Let's have a drink. Want to tell me?

172
00:12:52.279 --> 00:12:55.159
There's not much to tell. He told me, as a

173
00:12:55.200 --> 00:12:58.960
wife three children in Connecticut that she won't let him go.

174
00:13:00.080 --> 00:13:01.000
We couldn't marry me.

175
00:13:02.960 --> 00:13:06.399
Marry you?

176
00:13:04.679 --> 00:13:15.480
You want to get married? Is that all you want

177
00:13:15.559 --> 00:13:16.440
to get married?

178
00:13:20.559 --> 00:13:21.360
Will you marry me?

179
00:13:22.840 --> 00:13:23.080
Yes?

180
00:13:25.039 --> 00:13:40.840
Yeah, now here I am waiting once again, like two

181
00:13:41.039 --> 00:13:42.320
sensible moderns.

182
00:13:42.919 --> 00:13:44.320
We adjusted the marriage.

183
00:13:45.559 --> 00:13:48.759
We seem to be making a go of it until

184
00:13:48.759 --> 00:13:53.440
I lost my job and the cutbacks and government contracts.

185
00:13:54.480 --> 00:13:58.159
We subleased the apartment, moved to the cottage to make

186
00:13:58.200 --> 00:14:03.080
the rounds of electronic firms on more. And I sat

187
00:14:03.159 --> 00:14:08.639
there on the porch waiting, once again, looking up and

188
00:14:08.679 --> 00:14:12.159
down the beach, and suddenly I saw a flashlight about

189
00:14:12.200 --> 00:14:15.519
one hundred yards down. The beach had moved around, but

190
00:14:15.559 --> 00:14:18.679
it did not advance, and then it went out.

191
00:14:20.000 --> 00:14:20.600
I listened.

192
00:14:21.559 --> 00:14:24.240
The crunch of footsteps on gravel carried by the wind

193
00:14:24.279 --> 00:14:27.720
grew louder. I could make out the silhouettes of a

194
00:14:27.799 --> 00:14:32.559
man and a fishing rod on his shoulder. He was alone,

195
00:14:33.000 --> 00:14:36.759
hugging the waterline. As he came abreast, I called out

196
00:14:37.480 --> 00:14:41.679
a lock. Was Professor Mawory of the State University Marine

197
00:14:41.720 --> 00:14:43.720
Laboratory at nearby flags Pond.

198
00:14:44.200 --> 00:14:47.000
Oh, not a thing. I was hoping to pick up

199
00:14:47.000 --> 00:14:50.399
a striper. The line got snarled in the reel, too

200
00:14:50.600 --> 00:14:53.720
tangled to bother with. Tonight, I'm just having a nightcap.

201
00:14:54.440 --> 00:14:58.279
It's you, Johnny, professor. Yeah, I could stand one short

202
00:14:58.279 --> 00:15:07.600
one getting a bit nippy. We talked. He sipt this whiskey.

203
00:15:07.960 --> 00:15:09.240
I don't know how many I had.

204
00:15:10.559 --> 00:15:13.519
He talked about projects at the Marine lab, the need

205
00:15:13.559 --> 00:15:17.639
for more state funds for research on wetlands water pollution, erosion.

206
00:15:19.000 --> 00:15:21.720
He knew I was trying to get relocated. Had given

207
00:15:21.759 --> 00:15:23.960
me a letter to an executive at the Grumming Planet.

208
00:15:24.600 --> 00:15:29.519
Hear anything from Grumming, No another thing. I'm about exhausted

209
00:15:29.600 --> 00:15:32.480
the job possibilities on Long Island. I spent yesterday and

210
00:15:32.480 --> 00:15:37.799
today in New England. Well, thanks for the drink. I'm

211
00:15:37.840 --> 00:15:39.639
sure the job market will open up.

212
00:15:40.000 --> 00:15:40.240
Guys.

213
00:15:40.360 --> 00:15:46.360
Say hello to missus Drake. Thanks Dr Mawory. Yes, would

214
00:15:46.360 --> 00:15:50.960
you do me a favor? Favor be you're a friend

215
00:15:50.960 --> 00:15:55.600
of Emory Richard Emery. I know you know him, but

216
00:15:55.679 --> 00:15:59.600
are you a friend of his? Well, he's one of

217
00:15:59.679 --> 00:16:02.399
several new young chaps doing post doctor at work at

218
00:16:02.399 --> 00:16:03.200
the Marine Lab.

219
00:16:04.279 --> 00:16:07.320
It's a small group and we're all more or less friendly.

220
00:16:07.360 --> 00:16:11.240
I mean, will he listen to you as a friend?

221
00:16:11.919 --> 00:16:12.240
Listen?

222
00:16:12.360 --> 00:16:12.559
Yes?

223
00:16:14.279 --> 00:16:19.000
Tell him to stay away from my wife? Well, Emory,

224
00:16:19.320 --> 00:16:22.279
your wife, that's right. Don't ask me how I know

225
00:16:23.919 --> 00:16:24.480
little things.

226
00:16:24.519 --> 00:16:24.759
I know.

227
00:16:24.919 --> 00:16:31.039
I come home tonight, she's not home. I know. Well

228
00:16:31.200 --> 00:16:34.360
it's rather personal matter. I don't feel I have the

229
00:16:34.440 --> 00:16:38.120
right to meddle in the personal affairs of a faculty member.

230
00:16:38.279 --> 00:16:42.440
He doesn't, I'll kill him now, Drake, don't talk like that.

231
00:16:42.759 --> 00:16:46.120
Sensible people don't solve such problems like that. That's what

232
00:16:46.159 --> 00:16:50.679
I always thought. But now look, Greg, if you don't

233
00:16:50.679 --> 00:16:55.240
mind my giving you some advice, why don't you just

234
00:16:55.279 --> 00:16:59.080
get a divorce or separation? You just tell Emory to

235
00:16:59.080 --> 00:17:03.720
stay away from her. You must tell him Mary, you

236
00:17:03.840 --> 00:17:09.440
must I don't want to kill him, but I'm afraid.

237
00:17:10.640 --> 00:17:15.759
But they're breaking point. You tell him, Mary, tell him.

238
00:17:15.880 --> 00:17:21.640
If you don't, you'll share the responsibility. Tom, you're overwrought.

239
00:17:21.960 --> 00:17:26.400
You feel better in the morning, all right, I'll talk

240
00:17:26.519 --> 00:17:38.960
to him, Marie. Thanks, good night. Tom.

241
00:17:39.000 --> 00:17:42.279
I picked at the bottle. It still had about one

242
00:17:42.359 --> 00:17:47.400
drink in it. I walked down to the waterline. I

243
00:17:47.440 --> 00:17:51.599
swallowed what was left in the bottle, and with swelling anger,

244
00:17:51.720 --> 00:17:55.559
I flung it into the waves. I turned back towards

245
00:17:55.599 --> 00:18:00.440
some cottage who stopped. I saw a flash light down

246
00:18:00.519 --> 00:18:05.759
the beach. I can make out two persons walking towards me,

247
00:18:07.240 --> 00:18:11.200
and then the light was outs and silhouetted against the

248
00:18:11.279 --> 00:18:18.240
night sky, two forms embraced as one, and then carried

249
00:18:18.319 --> 00:18:20.920
by the wind rising out of the northeast. I heard

250
00:18:21.440 --> 00:18:26.880
the teasing laughter of Mary Anne.

251
00:18:30.799 --> 00:18:34.960
Well, there may be laughter in the wind, but for

252
00:18:35.079 --> 00:18:40.000
poor Tom, this is no time for levity. Wonder whether

253
00:18:40.079 --> 00:18:43.599
he knows that it's an ill wind and will blow

254
00:18:43.720 --> 00:18:48.720
him no good. I'll be back shortly with that too.

255
00:18:49.279 --> 00:18:53.799
Making the lords and jealous jealous and on the lan.

256
00:18:57.160 --> 00:19:00.279
This is Jerry Coffer for Killogg's Special k you know,

257
00:19:00.319 --> 00:19:02.799
for years we've been talking about the Special K Breakfast,

258
00:19:02.920 --> 00:19:04.440
a great way to start the day if you have

259
00:19:04.480 --> 00:19:06.680
a weight problem. You may have seen or heard our

260
00:19:06.720 --> 00:19:09.640
latest commercials which symbolize the problem of being a few

261
00:19:09.680 --> 00:19:12.480
pounds overweight by using this ball and chain.

262
00:19:13.079 --> 00:19:14.079
That's the sound effect.

263
00:19:14.519 --> 00:19:16.359
But so many people have come to know the Special

264
00:19:16.400 --> 00:19:19.480
Care breakfast that can help solve weight problems. They sometimes

265
00:19:19.519 --> 00:19:22.599
forget that Special K is America's favorite high protein cereal.

266
00:19:22.880 --> 00:19:25.960
It has eight essential vitamins and iron and so delicious

267
00:19:25.960 --> 00:19:28.400
that lots of folks, kids as well as adults, eat

268
00:19:28.440 --> 00:19:30.559
Special K just for the sheer, good taste of it.

269
00:19:30.960 --> 00:19:32.359
So we don't want you to think that you have

270
00:19:32.400 --> 00:19:34.759
to wear a ball and chain to eat Special K.

271
00:19:35.119 --> 00:19:37.400
All you need is an appreciation for the finer things

272
00:19:37.400 --> 00:19:39.920
of life, a one ounce bowl of Special K, four

273
00:19:39.960 --> 00:19:42.720
ounces of skim milk, tomato juice, coffee, and maybe a

274
00:19:42.720 --> 00:19:45.440
little sugar. The Special Care Breakfast can help you lose

275
00:19:45.480 --> 00:19:48.039
weight all by itself, but it really is a good start.

276
00:19:51.599 --> 00:19:54.279
Who knows you going to help you solve your shopping

277
00:19:54.400 --> 00:19:58.839
top loves not better business your owns.

278
00:20:00.200 --> 00:20:03.680
Wednesday, ten o'clock, I'm back at the office. Working on

279
00:20:03.720 --> 00:20:07.400
the case. When my secretary brings me the mail, Thanks kid,

280
00:20:08.559 --> 00:20:13.920
the usual stuff. Then I see it. It's addressed to

281
00:20:13.960 --> 00:20:18.440
me resident inside a fake rabbit's foot, A pitch a

282
00:20:18.480 --> 00:20:21.119
two dollars donation or send back the rabbit's foot.

283
00:20:22.119 --> 00:20:24.200
My problem, what to do about it?

284
00:20:28.960 --> 00:20:32.200
I'll help you with good advice from the Better Business Bureau.

285
00:20:32.480 --> 00:20:34.240
Oh yeah, spill it.

286
00:20:34.799 --> 00:20:38.599
If you receive unordered merchandise in the mail, you are

287
00:20:38.680 --> 00:20:42.359
under no obligation to return it or pay for it.

288
00:20:42.920 --> 00:20:45.079
Thanks Perl, You're okay.

289
00:20:45.960 --> 00:20:49.640
Just another consumer tip from your Better Business Bureau.

290
00:21:03.240 --> 00:21:06.960
Now what's a fella to do? Poor Tom Drake is

291
00:21:06.960 --> 00:21:11.039
in the dark and all at sea, wondering where he

292
00:21:11.119 --> 00:21:15.200
ought to be or not to be. But let's not

293
00:21:15.279 --> 00:21:19.720
blow the man down. Just lend me your ears and

294
00:21:19.839 --> 00:21:20.519
we'll listen.

295
00:21:25.480 --> 00:21:29.279
Their embrace in the dark was brief, and they started

296
00:21:29.319 --> 00:21:33.960
walking towards the cottage without using the flash light first

297
00:21:33.960 --> 00:21:36.880
foot second. I thought of walking towards them for a showdown,

298
00:21:37.880 --> 00:21:40.640
but Maloris promised to talk to Emory made me put

299
00:21:40.640 --> 00:21:44.039
aside the impulse. A duck behind the line of boulders

300
00:21:44.079 --> 00:21:47.799
had formed a breakwater above a high water line. They

301
00:21:47.839 --> 00:21:51.359
stopped in front of the cottage from behind the boulders.

302
00:21:51.400 --> 00:21:52.920
I watched and listened.

303
00:21:53.920 --> 00:21:56.079
Ah, that was a good hike.

304
00:21:57.000 --> 00:21:57.799
Let's go inside.

305
00:21:58.519 --> 00:22:01.480
Let's sit out here for a while. It's such a

306
00:22:01.640 --> 00:22:05.480
beautiful night. I'd like a cigarette.

307
00:22:06.720 --> 00:22:10.960
He sat down beside her, struck a match, cupped it

308
00:22:10.960 --> 00:22:12.799
in his hands, and held it to the cigarette in

309
00:22:12.839 --> 00:22:17.319
her lips. In the glow from the match flame, her

310
00:22:17.319 --> 00:22:20.920
face flushed, her eyes dreamy with desire.

311
00:22:22.400 --> 00:22:25.240
I knew I would never give her a I'm going

312
00:22:25.240 --> 00:22:28.599
out to Montalk next week. It's a long Monday holiday weekend.

313
00:22:29.599 --> 00:22:32.519
How about coming with me. I'd love to, but.

314
00:22:34.000 --> 00:22:36.200
I have to figure out some excuse to be away.

315
00:22:36.559 --> 00:22:42.400
Figure that should be any problem. Pretty clever about such things,

316
00:22:43.160 --> 00:22:46.640
I'll think of something. I couldn't help thinking.

317
00:22:46.799 --> 00:22:50.680
She was pretty clever about such things, Like the night

318
00:22:50.759 --> 00:22:59.039
she went with that very clever Harrison leading around. I'll

319
00:22:59.079 --> 00:23:05.160
never forget that Friday night, and now another Friday nights.

320
00:23:05.279 --> 00:23:07.960
Come on, let's go inside. You said he won't be

321
00:23:08.000 --> 00:23:08.640
back tonight.

322
00:23:08.960 --> 00:23:12.079
Oh relax, Richie, you mean to tell me.

323
00:23:12.079 --> 00:23:16.559
You prefer this cold gravel to a nice comfortable couch.

324
00:23:16.720 --> 00:23:18.839
Come on, very and oh.

325
00:23:19.640 --> 00:23:23.480
What's wrong with staying out? Here, oh Mark, I was

326
00:23:23.559 --> 00:23:27.319
content with a hat, jack wine and loaded for the

327
00:23:27.400 --> 00:23:28.519
bread beneath the ball.

328
00:23:29.400 --> 00:23:32.279
Not bad off.

329
00:23:32.279 --> 00:23:34.079
The laughter broke off suddenly.

330
00:23:35.240 --> 00:23:38.440
I saw the glowing tips of two flipped cigarettes and

331
00:23:38.480 --> 00:23:41.640
then kiss me Richie, crazy about it?

332
00:23:42.599 --> 00:23:46.680
Stop it, Stop it, cam you.

333
00:23:46.319 --> 00:23:47.240
Marian, and go inside.

334
00:23:47.599 --> 00:23:48.039
Go inside.

335
00:23:48.720 --> 00:23:50.920
Why if you have anything to say, you can say

336
00:23:50.960 --> 00:23:52.000
it here in front of Richard.

337
00:23:52.119 --> 00:23:58.160
Go inside alone. He broke my grip on a arm

338
00:23:58.359 --> 00:24:01.680
and pushed me away. The sharp made me slip to

339
00:24:01.720 --> 00:24:02.319
my knee.

340
00:24:02.599 --> 00:24:05.799
I came up, swinging at first and missed it in

341
00:24:05.920 --> 00:24:07.000
my arms from behind her.

342
00:24:07.119 --> 00:24:11.119
Listen, what's the matter with you? Are you crazy? I

343
00:24:11.200 --> 00:24:14.319
broke out of his whip, stepped back from him, and

344
00:24:14.440 --> 00:24:18.359
fell across the shovel. I grabbed the handle, jumped up no,

345
00:24:19.480 --> 00:24:22.319
and swung at Emory, too late for me to stop

346
00:24:22.400 --> 00:24:25.319
the swing. As she rushed in between us, the sharp

347
00:24:25.440 --> 00:24:27.279
edge of the shovel hit her in the back of

348
00:24:27.279 --> 00:24:27.680
the head.

349
00:24:28.079 --> 00:24:30.880
Oh my god.

350
00:24:32.559 --> 00:24:39.079
I stood there holding the shovel, unable to move, my

351
00:24:39.200 --> 00:24:43.519
eyes fixed on her face. As Emory knelt down over

352
00:24:43.559 --> 00:24:44.720
her with a flashlight.

353
00:24:46.200 --> 00:24:52.160
I watched her face and prayed, prayed she wouldn't die.

354
00:24:53.240 --> 00:24:56.240
I trembled with fear and anguish, telling myself this couldn't be.

355
00:24:56.400 --> 00:24:59.920
It was a nightmare. Hemory turned the flashlight on me.

356
00:25:00.000 --> 00:25:04.559
I studied my trembling lips, my glazed eyes fixed on

357
00:25:04.640 --> 00:25:12.440
Mary Anne. She's she's dead. I heard him, but didn't answer.

358
00:25:13.839 --> 00:25:17.079
I couldn't take my eyes off Drake, because you knew

359
00:25:17.160 --> 00:25:22.200
what I said. She's dead. You killed her. You better

360
00:25:22.240 --> 00:25:23.759
go in the house and call the police.

361
00:25:24.599 --> 00:25:29.519
I looked at him, puzzled, my mind, my eyes, my

362
00:25:29.680 --> 00:25:32.759
memory playing tricks on me, wondering.

363
00:25:33.000 --> 00:25:33.759
Who he was.

364
00:25:35.279 --> 00:25:42.000
Harrison, Jack Harrison, mocking me the night he took her

365
00:25:42.039 --> 00:25:45.400
to the movie, telling me we'll be back. What's the

366
00:25:45.480 --> 00:25:48.240
matter with you, Drake, don't you hear me? Call the police.

367
00:25:49.599 --> 00:25:51.759
I'll tell them. I'll say it was an accident.

368
00:25:51.839 --> 00:25:55.200
She tried to stick. I don't think you've heard of

369
00:25:55.240 --> 00:25:55.799
what I said.

370
00:25:57.599 --> 00:26:01.039
I'll call the police myself, worry drawing Harrison.

371
00:26:01.160 --> 00:26:07.400
Call up, who's Harrison, I'm Memory, Richard Emory, Drake.

372
00:26:09.359 --> 00:26:12.079
I'll be right back. Don't turn your back on me.

373
00:26:14.160 --> 00:26:17.200
Look back. As I swung the shovel, his mouth open,

374
00:26:17.359 --> 00:26:23.279
his eyes unbeleeving, he went down. I hit him again.

375
00:26:25.519 --> 00:26:28.039
He was still lying on his face.

376
00:26:29.279 --> 00:26:34.039
I staggered, gasping for air, my head pounding, thousands of

377
00:26:34.079 --> 00:26:38.759
pinpoints of light exploding inside my head. I sank down

378
00:26:38.759 --> 00:26:41.279
on the steps of the porch, holding my head in

379
00:26:41.359 --> 00:26:45.400
my hands, trying to clear my head, groping to recall

380
00:26:46.119 --> 00:26:52.599
understand what had happened to me, to them. Slowly the

381
00:26:52.759 --> 00:26:58.480
horror of it all returned. Mary Anne was dead. I

382
00:26:58.559 --> 00:27:02.480
turned the other body face up. It was not Harrison,

383
00:27:04.279 --> 00:27:14.279
it was Emory. I don't know how long I sat

384
00:27:14.319 --> 00:27:19.599
there on the porch steps. Finally I faced it. I

385
00:27:19.680 --> 00:27:22.960
decided to try to get rid of the bodies, bury

386
00:27:23.000 --> 00:27:27.680
them temporarily, and the gravel burn. I'd have to get

387
00:27:27.720 --> 00:27:32.319
a small boat, that rowboat in the woods just above

388
00:27:32.319 --> 00:27:35.559
the flock waterline, stored by one of these summer residents.

389
00:27:36.759 --> 00:27:40.200
I'd drow the bodies out to the channel, wait them

390
00:27:41.079 --> 00:27:42.079
drop them overboard.

391
00:27:42.119 --> 00:27:45.880
On an outgoing tide, the strong current on the bottom

392
00:27:45.920 --> 00:27:48.759
of the channel would move them out to the sea.

393
00:27:49.480 --> 00:27:53.480
The loose scravel was only about three feet deep. It

394
00:27:53.519 --> 00:27:57.519
would be deep enough to hide them. I dragged the

395
00:27:57.559 --> 00:28:04.640
bodies over, laid them in, and then covered them, building

396
00:28:04.680 --> 00:28:06.839
up the gravel mound the same height as the burn

397
00:28:06.880 --> 00:28:13.279
that ran parallel to the water level. I inspected the shovel.

398
00:28:14.359 --> 00:28:18.319
The metal glistened clean, no sign of blood or hair.

399
00:28:19.440 --> 00:28:24.279
I studded against the porch rail went inside. I sprawled

400
00:28:24.319 --> 00:28:28.279
out on the bed, exhausted and fell into a heavy,

401
00:28:28.519 --> 00:28:40.799
dreamless sleep. I woke up the next morning about an

402
00:28:40.799 --> 00:28:46.279
hour after sunrise, my mind clear, instantly aware of what

403
00:28:46.359 --> 00:28:50.000
had happened, what I had done. I jumped off the bed,

404
00:28:50.160 --> 00:28:53.640
went to the porch door, looked at the gravel graves

405
00:28:54.079 --> 00:29:00.160
on the burn. It looked natural, peaceful, like a cemetery.

406
00:29:01.160 --> 00:29:04.599
I knew what I had to do. I put on

407
00:29:04.640 --> 00:29:08.880
the coffee, showered, changed my clothes, became aware that her

408
00:29:08.920 --> 00:29:12.000
clothes were still hanging in the closet. I got the

409
00:29:12.000 --> 00:29:13.839
old note she had left me on that weekend, but

410
00:29:13.920 --> 00:29:17.240
Harrison read it over and over. As I had my

411
00:29:17.279 --> 00:29:20.160
coffee on the kitchen counter, I turned on the radio

412
00:29:20.200 --> 00:29:20.640
for the weather.

413
00:29:20.799 --> 00:29:24.799
The Bureau report Hurricane Gilda moving past Cape Patters, leaving

414
00:29:24.839 --> 00:29:25.440
a devastation.

415
00:29:25.559 --> 00:29:29.200
I placed the note on the counter, carefully spilled a

416
00:29:29.240 --> 00:29:32.400
spoonful of coffee on the counter, wetting a large corner

417
00:29:32.400 --> 00:29:35.400
of the paper, and then blotted it with a paper towel.

418
00:29:36.559 --> 00:29:39.200
I knew I'd have to keep checking the weather, but

419
00:29:39.279 --> 00:29:42.240
first get rid of her clothes. I put them in

420
00:29:42.279 --> 00:29:45.119
a large plastic garbage bag. I knew i'd have to

421
00:29:45.119 --> 00:29:46.960
stay close to the cottage until I got rid of

422
00:29:47.000 --> 00:29:50.319
the bodies, lay in a supply of food, so I

423
00:29:50.400 --> 00:29:53.400
drove to the supermarket. Put the clothes into the collection

424
00:29:53.519 --> 00:29:56.319
bin of the Salvation Army on the parking lot. I

425
00:29:56.359 --> 00:29:59.240
did my shopping, was back in less than an hour.

426
00:30:02.440 --> 00:30:04.160
I went up to where the rowboat was on the

427
00:30:04.279 --> 00:30:08.680
bank of trees. It looked all right. Aluminum light enough

428
00:30:08.680 --> 00:30:12.559
to drag the oars were in it, and burlap fishbags

429
00:30:13.119 --> 00:30:15.319
strong enough to hold the rocks i'd use for weights.

430
00:30:16.160 --> 00:30:18.799
I'd have to wait until dark to move the bodies.

431
00:30:19.480 --> 00:30:23.400
In the meantime, I could move the boat. It was

432
00:30:23.720 --> 00:30:30.400
a couple of hundred yards. I placed the boat on top.

433
00:30:30.200 --> 00:30:31.359
Of the grave.

434
00:30:36.400 --> 00:30:39.759
By nightfall, the coast Guard was sending out small craft warnings,

435
00:30:39.799 --> 00:30:42.559
and all through the nights I was moved to the

436
00:30:42.640 --> 00:30:48.599
radio for weather hicks. Feeling trapped, helpless to do what

437
00:30:48.640 --> 00:30:52.119
I had planned, I finally fell asleep on the couch.

438
00:30:57.200 --> 00:31:00.880
I was awakened by the Sunday morning, church music and

439
00:31:00.960 --> 00:31:05.119
a loud knocking on the porch door. Okay you No,

440
00:31:06.400 --> 00:31:10.160
I didn't recognize the voice, and I hesitated me. The

441
00:31:10.240 --> 00:31:14.160
knocking stops. I heard him walk down the porch steps.

442
00:31:14.799 --> 00:31:18.039
I put on my shoes, went to the door. He

443
00:31:18.160 --> 00:31:19.799
was sitting on the edge of the transfer of the

444
00:31:19.799 --> 00:31:23.880
boat and his back to me, smoking a cigarette, fishing

445
00:31:23.880 --> 00:31:24.920
pole across his knees.

446
00:31:25.960 --> 00:31:26.680
It was malory.

447
00:31:27.559 --> 00:31:28.079
He turned.

448
00:31:28.519 --> 00:31:29.079
Didn't wake you?

449
00:31:29.160 --> 00:31:32.119
Did I? I heard the radio and I thought i'd

450
00:31:32.119 --> 00:31:37.200
stop by and if you're all right? Okay now, but

451
00:31:38.519 --> 00:31:43.680
yesterday went ahead? Oh Dave, how about some coffee?

452
00:31:43.759 --> 00:31:44.000
Oh?

453
00:31:44.079 --> 00:31:46.160
Thanks, But I've got to get back to the lab.

454
00:31:47.440 --> 00:31:51.160
I didn't know you had a boat, but it's not mine.

455
00:31:51.799 --> 00:31:54.319
Along as the Johnson's. I saw a couple of kids

456
00:31:54.359 --> 00:31:57.039
dragging it out of the patch of trees up there.

457
00:31:57.079 --> 00:32:00.319
They ran When I started towards him, thought I'd keep

458
00:32:00.359 --> 00:32:03.720
it here for them. Yes, it's safe enough here unless

459
00:32:03.720 --> 00:32:07.519
we get that hurricane. I pull it up on higher ground.

460
00:32:07.519 --> 00:32:10.839
If the weather gets worse and Guilder doesn't move out sea.

461
00:32:12.119 --> 00:32:17.200
Well glad to see. Feeling bad, doctor Murray, did did

462
00:32:17.200 --> 00:32:22.759
you get a chance to talk to Emery no matter

463
00:32:22.799 --> 00:32:25.880
of fact. I haven't seen him and I stopped by

464
00:32:25.880 --> 00:32:29.279
his room Friday night after I left you. It wasn't in.

465
00:32:30.599 --> 00:32:33.559
I left a note to call me. I didn't hear

466
00:32:33.599 --> 00:32:38.240
from him all day Saturday. Wasn't in Saturday night, not

467
00:32:38.359 --> 00:32:42.039
in his room this morning either. It's not like him

468
00:32:42.079 --> 00:32:49.000
to go off without a word. I've been thinking over

469
00:32:49.039 --> 00:32:52.880
doctor Mury. It's it's not yours talking memory. I can't

470
00:32:52.960 --> 00:32:57.079
keep it tired to me. She's left me? Oh did she?

471
00:32:58.200 --> 00:33:01.880
I'm sorry? Perhaps the best? Well, she didn't get home

472
00:33:02.079 --> 00:33:06.240
Friday night. Let me know the suddenly kitchen saturdy morny.

473
00:33:06.920 --> 00:33:13.279
Is she leaving you for memory? She didn't say, I

474
00:33:13.359 --> 00:33:24.799
see m h. Well, I'm sorry, Drake, I really am.

475
00:33:24.799 --> 00:33:28.599
Sunday nights, I was still trapped by the weather got

476
00:33:28.599 --> 00:33:31.119
worse through the night, but the weather report said that

477
00:33:31.319 --> 00:33:33.599
still was a fifty to fifty chance of the hurricane

478
00:33:33.599 --> 00:33:44.680
would bypass Long Island. About noon the next day, the

479
00:33:44.720 --> 00:33:49.079
wind died down, and I stood there by the rowboat,

480
00:33:49.440 --> 00:33:51.880
wondering whether I should take the chance. In broad daylight,

481
00:33:53.039 --> 00:33:57.720
long Avan Sand was still calm as a lake. I

482
00:33:57.759 --> 00:34:03.480
heard a helicopter coming across crane neck routine patrol of

483
00:34:03.519 --> 00:34:09.800
the shore. I could read the suffer police and then

484
00:34:11.800 --> 00:34:15.719
Dr Maury coming on the beach towards me. I stood

485
00:34:15.719 --> 00:34:16.639
there waiting for him.

486
00:34:17.360 --> 00:34:20.880
I'm glad I find you home, Drake. Oh, I've just

487
00:34:21.280 --> 00:34:24.599
been answering more job ads. Have you heard from missus

488
00:34:24.679 --> 00:34:26.719
Drake and let her perhaps phone call?

489
00:34:27.199 --> 00:34:27.480
Why?

490
00:34:27.679 --> 00:34:31.679
No, I haven't. Well, I'm getting really concerned about Emory.

491
00:34:32.840 --> 00:34:34.880
No one at the lab has seen him or heard

492
00:34:34.920 --> 00:34:39.480
from him for three days. This morning I looked through

493
00:34:39.480 --> 00:34:45.400
his room, his clothes, his suitcases were there. I can't understand.

494
00:34:45.440 --> 00:34:48.800
I I was hoping if you'd heard from missus Drake,

495
00:34:49.000 --> 00:34:51.199
knew where she was, I'd ask her if she had

496
00:34:51.239 --> 00:34:53.480
any idea about where Emory might be.

497
00:34:53.559 --> 00:34:56.639
Well, I do have her mother's phone number in Ohio

498
00:34:56.679 --> 00:34:59.159
and her sister's in Connecticut.

499
00:35:00.119 --> 00:35:04.079
You don't mind, do you want to call him here? Thanks?

500
00:35:04.079 --> 00:35:05.960
But I'm on my way to the village hall to

501
00:35:06.000 --> 00:35:07.800
see police Chief Raymond.

502
00:35:12.360 --> 00:35:14.920
I stood there watching him make his way along the

503
00:35:14.960 --> 00:35:17.639
beach to the village Hall at the Old Field Lighthouse,

504
00:35:18.360 --> 00:35:26.639
wondering just what he'd tell Chief Raymond.

505
00:35:27.079 --> 00:35:31.679
Well, you know what they say, the path of gory

506
00:35:31.800 --> 00:35:36.760
murder leads but to the grave. What do you suppose

507
00:35:36.760 --> 00:35:39.440
will happen to Tom Drake? Will he be like that

508
00:35:39.559 --> 00:35:43.719
comedian who murdered people with stolen jokes and was hanged

509
00:35:43.760 --> 00:35:49.000
by his wits end. I'll be back shortly with a three.

510
00:35:48.840 --> 00:35:51.440
Hi goldilocks here.

511
00:35:51.840 --> 00:35:56.159
Professionally, taste testing diet drinks can be very difficult, but

512
00:35:56.239 --> 00:35:59.440
I've just had to bear with it. Then I found

513
00:35:59.480 --> 00:36:04.039
sugar Diet seven up. It doesn't taste like other diet drinks.

514
00:36:04.280 --> 00:36:09.239
It's fresh, light, natural, delicious. Sugar free Diet seven up

515
00:36:09.320 --> 00:36:12.840
tastes so good that I've taste tested one hundreds of times,

516
00:36:13.000 --> 00:36:16.039
and each time I've given it my seal of approval.

517
00:36:16.599 --> 00:36:19.280
Yes, this one's just right.

518
00:36:21.760 --> 00:36:25.000
You finally made your gift list. Your neighbour's child is too,

519
00:36:25.480 --> 00:36:28.880
your niece is six and nephew is seven. But before

520
00:36:29.000 --> 00:36:31.320
you go to the toy store, there's something else you

521
00:36:31.320 --> 00:36:35.079
should do. Right Toys Washington d C two O two

522
00:36:35.159 --> 00:36:38.599
o seven for a free booklet on toy safety. That's

523
00:36:38.760 --> 00:36:43.000
Toys Washington, d C two O two o seven. This

524
00:36:43.119 --> 00:36:45.800
message is brought to you by the US Consumer Product

Safety Commissions.

526
00:36:55.599 --> 00:36:59.639
Sometimes a gentle rain in one place adds up to

527
00:36:59.679 --> 00:37:07.639
aging torrent in another a torrent that can uproot lives

528
00:37:08.000 --> 00:37:11.840
as well as trees to remedy the things that can

529
00:37:11.880 --> 00:37:16.559
be remedied in a disaster. America has a unique emergency force,

530
00:37:17.360 --> 00:37:22.800
The American Red Cross, America's good neighbor. Red Cross is

531
00:37:22.800 --> 00:37:26.039
on call twenty four hours a day, every day to

532
00:37:26.159 --> 00:37:29.719
cope with emergencies, whether they're on the next block or

533
00:37:29.760 --> 00:37:33.000
a continent away. Most of the help that's given is

534
00:37:33.119 --> 00:37:38.199
from volunteers. The money's from volunteers too, Volunteers like you.

535
00:37:39.639 --> 00:37:42.880
If you need help, join us. If you can give help,

536
00:37:43.519 --> 00:37:46.239
join us the American Red Cross.

537
00:37:47.239 --> 00:38:03.480
Help us help people just like you. In the lot

538
00:38:03.559 --> 00:38:07.800
of most policemen is not a happy one. Wonder how

539
00:38:07.840 --> 00:38:13.000
Police Chief Raymond will receive Professor Mallory. Will he use

540
00:38:13.079 --> 00:38:16.760
the right bait and make a haul or lose hook

541
00:38:16.840 --> 00:38:21.559
line and singer, Let's follow our troubled professor and find

542
00:38:21.599 --> 00:38:24.519
out what's it all about? Emma said to tell me

543
00:38:25.360 --> 00:38:27.960
it was urgent. Well, I mean, it's not a matter

544
00:38:28.000 --> 00:38:28.519
of life.

545
00:38:28.440 --> 00:38:29.119
Or death, is it?

546
00:38:29.920 --> 00:38:34.599
And I hope not? Wo Will you sound like you're

547
00:38:34.599 --> 00:38:38.599
not so sure? I'm not, but I am getting worried.

548
00:38:39.199 --> 00:38:43.559
Somebody been stealing typewriters and lab equipment. Again no, no, no, Chief.

549
00:38:43.599 --> 00:38:48.400
I Well this may sound odd, but a member of

550
00:38:48.440 --> 00:38:55.039
the lab faculty is seems to be missing. Oh that's so.

551
00:38:55.159 --> 00:38:59.639
What do you mean missing? No one's seen him since

552
00:38:59.679 --> 00:39:03.239
Friday day afternoon? Wow, this is only Monday. Yes, yes,

553
00:39:04.280 --> 00:39:06.960
he was not in his room Friday night, Saturday night,

554
00:39:07.320 --> 00:39:10.360
Sunday night. He didn't show up in the lab today.

555
00:39:10.599 --> 00:39:12.639
What about his weekends? Did he have them free?

556
00:39:12.840 --> 00:39:13.000
Well?

557
00:39:13.079 --> 00:39:17.199
Sometimes when scheduled. He was not scheduled to be off

558
00:39:17.320 --> 00:39:22.320
this weekend. Chape rooms with Garrison says he saw Emory

559
00:39:22.400 --> 00:39:26.440
Friday noon. Garrison was off this past weekend. He got

560
00:39:26.440 --> 00:39:31.280
back Sunday night. I saw Garrison this morning. He wasn't

561
00:39:31.320 --> 00:39:34.840
surprised or upset over the fact that Emory hadn't spent

562
00:39:34.880 --> 00:39:38.920
the night in his room. It wasn't the first time.

563
00:39:39.639 --> 00:39:43.079
Do you know that cottage the Drake's rented, Yes, I do,

564
00:39:43.159 --> 00:39:47.239
Blongza Howards, that was the one. What about it? Last

565
00:39:47.519 --> 00:39:51.519
Friday night, I was out casting along the beach.

566
00:39:53.039 --> 00:39:54.320
On my way back to the lab.

567
00:39:54.800 --> 00:39:58.639
Drake invited me to stop for a nightcap on the porch.

568
00:40:00.320 --> 00:40:04.199
He'd already had quite a few. I had one drink

569
00:40:04.199 --> 00:40:07.679
with him, and he asked me. Was I a friend

570
00:40:07.760 --> 00:40:12.480
of Emory's? And he asked me the way he put it,

571
00:40:13.599 --> 00:40:16.599
would I do him a favor? Mm hmm, gone, go on.

572
00:40:17.960 --> 00:40:20.199
What he wanted me to do was for me to

573
00:40:20.239 --> 00:40:24.480
tell Emory to stay away from his wife.

574
00:40:24.719 --> 00:40:24.920
Ah.

575
00:40:26.719 --> 00:40:29.599
Now did he explain that. Did he mean Emory was

576
00:40:29.679 --> 00:40:32.719
annoying his wife or did he mean they were having

577
00:40:32.760 --> 00:40:35.679
an affair? Well, my first impression was that it was

578
00:40:36.320 --> 00:40:41.000
more or less a dalliance. Well, that's kind of par

579
00:40:41.119 --> 00:40:44.199
for the course in this university town, you know, Yes, perhaps,

580
00:40:44.280 --> 00:40:48.239
But I told him I prefer not to get involved

581
00:40:48.360 --> 00:40:51.079
in personal affairs of faculty members. What do you say?

582
00:40:51.639 --> 00:40:57.679
He said, if Emory didn't stay away, he'd kill him

583
00:40:58.039 --> 00:41:01.880
his exact words. Of course, he was very drunk when

584
00:41:01.920 --> 00:41:05.800
he said it. I told Drake to calm him down,

585
00:41:05.880 --> 00:41:07.960
that I had talked to Ambry. Yes to see. Well, now,

586
00:41:08.000 --> 00:41:10.639
what about missus Drake? Was there anything said to indicate

587
00:41:10.679 --> 00:41:14.679
whether she was inside the cottage while Drake was blowing

588
00:41:14.719 --> 00:41:17.079
his top this way to youton. No, no, there were

589
00:41:17.119 --> 00:41:19.599
no lights on inside. Matter of fact, Drake made it

590
00:41:19.679 --> 00:41:24.000
clear that she was not home, He implied, without mentioning

591
00:41:24.039 --> 00:41:28.239
Hemory my name, that she was out somewhere with him. Well,

592
00:41:28.280 --> 00:41:30.880
in that case she could have some idea about where

593
00:41:30.960 --> 00:41:35.639
he might be. That occurred to me. I went back

594
00:41:35.679 --> 00:41:40.079
there yesterday morning with that in mind, and did she

595
00:41:40.079 --> 00:41:45.079
She wasn't there. Drake told me she left him. He

596
00:41:45.119 --> 00:41:48.960
said she didn't come home at all Friday night. He

597
00:41:49.000 --> 00:41:51.079
said he found a note from her in the kitchen

598
00:41:51.760 --> 00:41:55.119
Saturday morning. Well, it's quite a coincidence to say, at

599
00:41:55.199 --> 00:41:58.880
least did the note say she'd going away with Emory? Well,

600
00:41:58.920 --> 00:42:01.599
Drake didn't show me the note, but as much as said,

601
00:42:01.719 --> 00:42:04.000
there was no mention in the memory. Have you been

602
00:42:04.039 --> 00:42:06.960
to the cottage since yesterday? And I stopped there on

603
00:42:07.000 --> 00:42:10.360
my way here. Drake says he hasn't heard a word

604
00:42:10.400 --> 00:42:14.920
from a no mail, no phone call. But I asked him,

605
00:42:15.320 --> 00:42:18.840
would she perhaps have gone to her parents' home, to

606
00:42:18.880 --> 00:42:28.000
a relative. He gave me these phone numbers, Ohio in Connecticut.

607
00:42:28.199 --> 00:42:32.800
Do you think we ought to call him? No? No,

608
00:42:34.000 --> 00:42:36.320
I'll drop in on Drake. Rather he made the call.

609
00:42:36.519 --> 00:42:39.320
Is he We can't locate missus, Drake, and you don't

610
00:42:39.320 --> 00:42:42.159
hear from memory? That leaves us with two missing persons.

611
00:42:42.599 --> 00:42:45.559
We'll put out on all points teletype, alarmful descriptions and

612
00:42:45.559 --> 00:42:57.039
the photos. I'll keep you posted. Mallory, I'll come to

613
00:42:57.079 --> 00:43:01.119
the point, Drake Mallory. Professor Mallory up at the Marine Lab,

614
00:43:01.199 --> 00:43:03.800
you know, came to see me and he's a bit

615
00:43:03.880 --> 00:43:07.360
worried about the absence of a faculty member, one Richard Emory.

616
00:43:08.000 --> 00:43:10.400
The no use being delicate about this, Drake. From what

617
00:43:10.480 --> 00:43:13.400
he told me, it does look like Emory and your

618
00:43:13.440 --> 00:43:19.320
wife ran off together, doesn't it. Yes, sure looks like it.

619
00:43:19.760 --> 00:43:22.280
Do you mind if I see that note she left you?

620
00:43:23.239 --> 00:43:25.639
Oh no, not at all. It's on the kitchen condo

621
00:43:25.880 --> 00:43:30.159
where I found it. We went into the kitchen. He

622
00:43:30.239 --> 00:43:33.480
picked up the note, studied it carefully, but to the

623
00:43:33.480 --> 00:43:36.360
back of the paper felt the coffee.

624
00:43:35.960 --> 00:43:43.039
Staindh, When did you discover this note Saturday morning?

625
00:43:43.840 --> 00:43:44.000
Well?

626
00:43:44.039 --> 00:43:44.559
That stained?

627
00:43:44.679 --> 00:43:47.480
Some coffee spilled from my cup as I was reading it. Oh,

628
00:43:47.519 --> 00:43:50.360
I see, I see you You might if I look around.

629
00:43:51.039 --> 00:43:51.679
Oh, go right.

630
00:43:53.480 --> 00:43:56.719
I followed him into the bedroom. He looked through her dresser,

631
00:43:57.000 --> 00:43:58.880
in the closet, the night table.

632
00:43:58.920 --> 00:44:01.840
Well, her clothes are going all right. I was looking

633
00:44:01.880 --> 00:44:04.239
for a letter she might have received from a friend

634
00:44:04.360 --> 00:44:06.440
or relative, you know, inviting her for a visit for

635
00:44:06.480 --> 00:44:09.239
a few days or a week. I mean, did she

636
00:44:09.360 --> 00:44:12.199
mention such an invitation to you?

637
00:44:12.239 --> 00:44:12.440
No?

638
00:44:12.880 --> 00:44:15.119
Well, if she did get such a letter, she could

639
00:44:15.119 --> 00:44:17.559
have taken it with her. I mean, have you called

640
00:44:17.559 --> 00:44:19.400
her parents or her sister?

641
00:44:20.239 --> 00:44:23.800
Well, frankly no, I was hoping I wouldn't have to

642
00:44:23.800 --> 00:44:27.599
do that when she come back, or write her phone.

643
00:44:27.880 --> 00:44:30.360
Well, if they don't turn up in a week or two,

644
00:44:30.400 --> 00:44:33.159
we might perhaps go on the assumption that they're dead,

645
00:44:34.000 --> 00:44:40.519
you see, and start a search for their bodies. You

646
00:44:40.599 --> 00:44:44.400
don't think, well, look, if I was drunk when I

647
00:44:44.719 --> 00:44:48.519
don't know, No, I don't think you killed them, of

648
00:44:48.559 --> 00:44:51.880
course not. What would you do with the bodies? Bury

649
00:44:51.920 --> 00:44:54.360
them out there? Let's not get morbid about this. You

650
00:44:54.400 --> 00:44:58.599
don't think I'm going to call out the tractors to

651
00:44:58.639 --> 00:44:59.760
scrape down the gravel.

652
00:45:00.079 --> 00:45:00.280
Yeah.

653
00:45:01.320 --> 00:45:04.639
Oh, by the way, how long are you planning to

654
00:45:04.679 --> 00:45:08.199
stay on here? A couple of weeks before? Well, I'll

655
00:45:08.280 --> 00:45:11.480
keep in touch. I'll call you if anything develops. Phone

656
00:45:11.599 --> 00:45:15.760
me if you get a letter or a call from

657
00:45:15.800 --> 00:45:20.679
your wife. I followed him out. He looked at the rowboat,

658
00:45:21.679 --> 00:45:24.320
studied the sky, you know, I'd pull my little boot

659
00:45:24.400 --> 00:45:26.880
up higher beyond that low ground back of the house.

660
00:45:26.880 --> 00:45:28.519
I wouldn't be surprised if we get some of the

661
00:45:28.639 --> 00:45:30.360
hurricane gilded before night's over.

662
00:45:31.320 --> 00:45:34.159
Better keep the radio set on, the coast Guard reports.

663
00:45:34.920 --> 00:45:37.639
I watched him down the footpath across the low ground

664
00:45:37.639 --> 00:45:40.320
behind the cottage, and then uphill to where his car

665
00:45:40.440 --> 00:45:42.800
was parked on the top of the bluff. It was

666
00:45:42.840 --> 00:45:45.559
not until he was out of sight that I stopped

667
00:45:45.559 --> 00:45:55.760
sweating anywhere. It stayed calm, windless, an oppressive silence hanging

668
00:45:55.800 --> 00:45:56.360
over the water.

669
00:45:56.440 --> 00:46:00.719
In the land. The sky was sunless, gray, not a

670
00:46:00.800 --> 00:46:04.679
cloud in sight. I'd heard of the calm before the storm,

671
00:46:04.719 --> 00:46:08.039
but I had never seen it. I filled the kerosene

672
00:46:08.079 --> 00:46:10.239
lanterns that candles.

673
00:46:09.880 --> 00:46:14.400
Ready gale warning cave made to block island. I tied

674
00:46:14.480 --> 00:46:17.239
through to four feet above normal. Was flooding along.

675
00:46:17.039 --> 00:46:22.920
Lowlands by late afternoon, brought up and down the sound.

676
00:46:22.960 --> 00:46:25.440
White caps galloped should from as far as the eye

677
00:46:25.440 --> 00:46:29.960
could see. Treetops swayed and twisted in the whistling wind.

678
00:46:31.719 --> 00:46:35.559
The waves crashed higher on the shore and started to

679
00:46:35.639 --> 00:46:39.159
rain hard, and windswept sheets of water lashed the roof

680
00:46:39.880 --> 00:46:40.719
shingled side of.

681
00:46:43.079 --> 00:46:47.039
The lights went off. I lit the lanterns and candles.

682
00:46:47.719 --> 00:46:51.800
Winds fifteen to sixteen Knox residents alerted to evacuate the

683
00:46:51.880 --> 00:46:53.440
low lying shore areas.

684
00:46:53.960 --> 00:46:57.119
The door banged open and the wind picked up the

685
00:46:57.199 --> 00:47:00.760
rowboat scented rolling side over side of the little ground

686
00:47:00.800 --> 00:47:03.559
behind the house. I stood with the lantern on the

687
00:47:03.599 --> 00:47:08.920
gravel burn, watching the waves inching crosser lapping the foot

688
00:47:08.920 --> 00:47:13.239
of the gravel mound, loosening gravel in the backwash.

689
00:47:13.719 --> 00:47:15.000
And then I heard the phone ring.

690
00:47:16.239 --> 00:47:19.280
I went to it, picked it up, still watching through

691
00:47:19.320 --> 00:47:21.360
the open door the waves breaking over the gravel.

692
00:47:23.000 --> 00:47:25.800
Hello, Hello, I'll break this police jee Raymond? What the

693
00:47:25.840 --> 00:47:27.480
hell are you're still doing out there? Didn't you hear

694
00:47:27.480 --> 00:47:29.159
the evacuation alert? Or the.

695
00:47:31.119 --> 00:47:34.320
Phone fell out of my hand? I saw waves crashing

696
00:47:34.320 --> 00:47:37.199
over the grave and ran out, draculous to be carefully.

697
00:47:37.679 --> 00:47:39.760
There's been a breach in the shore about a quarter

698
00:47:39.840 --> 00:47:40.840
mile down the beach.

699
00:47:40.920 --> 00:47:42.559
Get the hell out of there. You'll be cut off,

700
00:47:42.599 --> 00:47:53.760
you hear me be there? Hello? Hello, Well bet you

701
00:47:53.760 --> 00:47:54.440
get going with the water.

702
00:48:03.280 --> 00:48:03.559
I know.

703
00:48:03.800 --> 00:48:06.679
I had to keep shoveling on the gravel and sand

704
00:48:07.559 --> 00:48:09.559
as fast as the waves washed it off.

705
00:48:10.480 --> 00:48:10.880
He put.

706
00:48:11.000 --> 00:48:13.960
For every shovelful I throw in the grave, the waves

707
00:48:14.119 --> 00:48:17.880
washed off to a last track of time. I know

708
00:48:18.039 --> 00:48:20.559
I had to keep at it to keep the grave covered.

709
00:48:28.400 --> 00:48:34.840
Heading coast to the house gallery. Now, kay, ray, all right,

710
00:48:34.920 --> 00:48:37.400
let's go ashore. Notes it into the bank. You better

711
00:48:37.440 --> 00:48:47.159
bring your player. What what the hell is he doing?

712
00:48:50.079 --> 00:48:51.280
You can't come back?

713
00:48:52.280 --> 00:49:00.719
Never mercan savery? Better get him over there? Riverhead present

714
00:49:00.760 --> 00:49:02.239
hospital title.

715
00:49:02.079 --> 00:49:03.119
Be going out in a little while.

716
00:49:03.760 --> 00:49:06.599
Let's put this ropeer on the aidles and secure to

717
00:49:06.639 --> 00:49:07.000
the porch.

718
00:49:07.840 --> 00:49:12.719
Holor you stay here, you'll work the police. I'm the carrier.

719
00:49:12.840 --> 00:49:23.800
Get here, chief, I'm at the morgue at Riverhead.

720
00:49:24.239 --> 00:49:24.360
Uh.

721
00:49:24.960 --> 00:49:27.840
Doctor Henderson of the police slab gave me an envelope

722
00:49:27.840 --> 00:49:31.599
to get to you. He said you wanted an analysis.

723
00:49:31.079 --> 00:49:31.920
Report and hurry.

724
00:49:31.960 --> 00:49:32.360
That's right.

725
00:49:32.400 --> 00:49:32.880
What's you say?

726
00:49:32.960 --> 00:49:33.400
Read it to me.

727
00:49:34.360 --> 00:49:39.400
It says the coffee steam is less than a week old,

728
00:49:40.800 --> 00:49:41.639
the ink.

729
00:49:42.599 --> 00:49:44.039
Is at least a year old.

730
00:49:48.039 --> 00:49:48.960
But thanks Mallory.

731
00:49:50.159 --> 00:49:52.039
By the way, do me a favor. Will you leave

732
00:49:52.079 --> 00:49:56.400
a note to Highway Superintendent Murphy in a state office building.

733
00:49:57.679 --> 00:50:07.519
Tell him I said I won't be needing those tractors. Well,

734
00:50:08.519 --> 00:50:13.400
imagine what do you think of that police chief? Isn't

735
00:50:13.400 --> 00:50:20.440
he the fishy character? Anyhow, we didn't have to scrape bottom.

736
00:50:21.800 --> 00:50:22.719
I'll be back shortly.

737
00:50:23.039 --> 00:50:25.039
Hello, this is Goldilocks.

738
00:50:25.480 --> 00:50:28.159
It seems like only yesterday that I was a little

739
00:50:28.280 --> 00:50:32.639
girl tasting porridge. You know, this one's too hot, this

740
00:50:32.840 --> 00:50:36.400
one's too cold. And now I conduct taste tests on

741
00:50:36.599 --> 00:50:39.599
diet drinks. And there's one I must tell you about.

742
00:50:39.960 --> 00:50:43.599
Sugar free diet seven up. It has a fresh, natural,

743
00:50:43.800 --> 00:50:47.880
delicious taste. It drives my taste to meter crazy. Sugar

744
00:50:48.000 --> 00:50:49.960
free diet seven up hot.

745
00:50:50.360 --> 00:50:52.039
This one's just right.

746
00:50:54.440 --> 00:50:56.920
Answer on. I'm building a kite out of tissue paper

747
00:50:56.960 --> 00:50:57.960
and it's beginning to rain.

748
00:50:58.159 --> 00:51:00.679
What do I need or plastic kites?

749
00:51:02.679 --> 00:51:03.320
Answeram?

750
00:51:03.519 --> 00:51:05.840
How many children are born with birth defects two.

751
00:51:05.840 --> 00:51:08.079
Undred fifty down in a year in the United States?

752
00:51:08.280 --> 00:51:09.159
What's being done?

753
00:51:09.440 --> 00:51:12.920
The March of Dimes supports research, medical service and public

754
00:51:13.079 --> 00:51:14.000
education programs.

755
00:51:14.119 --> 00:51:16.400
How can I help? Answeram?

756
00:51:18.360 --> 00:51:18.599
Like me?

757
00:51:18.960 --> 00:51:21.119
The March of Dimes needs money for answers.

758
00:51:21.360 --> 00:51:22.639
Give to the March of Dimes.

759
00:51:33.079 --> 00:51:38.039
Still in a dilemma, we hope you never have to

760
00:51:38.119 --> 00:51:42.840
face it. We can offer some advice, though, when you

761
00:51:42.960 --> 00:51:47.360
are uptight about any matter. Nothing like settling down at

762
00:51:47.400 --> 00:51:50.679
your radio and letting the cares of the days slip

763
00:51:50.719 --> 00:51:55.000
away as your mind and ears carry you off on

764
00:51:55.119 --> 00:52:01.039
a relaxing journey of mystery adventure. Our casting included Ralph Bell,

765
00:52:01.480 --> 00:52:07.079
Patricia Wheel, Robert Dryden and William Redfield. The entire production

766
00:52:07.280 --> 00:52:09.000
was under the direction of Hymond Brown.

767
00:52:12.280 --> 00:52:12.519
Well.

768
00:52:14.320 --> 00:52:18.639
I think we're starting the evening off quite well. Watch

769
00:52:18.719 --> 00:52:25.320
that well. It's hard to explain exactly how I ended

770
00:52:25.400 --> 00:52:31.960
up so focused on the nocturnal, but perhaps another time

771
00:52:33.000 --> 00:52:38.920
I can go into that more in depth. It's always

772
00:52:39.039 --> 00:52:41.639
been a part of me. I think it's always been

773
00:52:41.760 --> 00:52:46.280
a part of everyone. My dear to be a little

774
00:52:46.320 --> 00:52:51.440
bit light and a little bit dark. I suppose in

775
00:52:51.519 --> 00:52:55.559
a way, I've always felt like I was kind of

776
00:52:55.679 --> 00:52:57.159
a well.

777
00:52:57.320 --> 00:53:04.519
A Nightmam starring Miss Marcia Hunt, a tale well calculated

778
00:53:04.639 --> 00:53:07.280
to keep you in suspense.

779
00:53:18.599 --> 00:53:22.480
But Miss Rhodes, it's impossible. This is a maximum security prison.

780
00:53:22.519 --> 00:53:24.920
We haven't had an escape in years. No, you have one, now,

781
00:53:25.000 --> 00:53:27.320
Warden Tom Nixon, how can you be sure?

782
00:53:27.519 --> 00:53:29.760
I saw him in New York City two days ago.

783
00:53:30.039 --> 00:53:32.079
Did you know him well well enough?

784
00:53:32.639 --> 00:53:35.119
He was my mother's star boarder for years.

785
00:53:35.599 --> 00:53:36.440
Why I sat.

786
00:53:36.199 --> 00:53:38.199
Opposite him at the dinner table from the time I

787
00:53:38.360 --> 00:53:41.159
was a girl of fifteen until he murdered her.

788
00:53:41.760 --> 00:53:44.480
And now somehow he's escaped from here.

789
00:53:44.320 --> 00:53:45.840
And he's after me this roads.

790
00:53:45.880 --> 00:53:47.559
It's impossible, I say.

791
00:53:47.480 --> 00:53:48.320
Wooden Graves.

792
00:53:48.440 --> 00:53:51.400
Ten years ago, when mother was found murdered, I knew

793
00:53:51.440 --> 00:53:54.679
it couldn't have been anyone but Tom. I testified against him.

794
00:53:55.119 --> 00:53:57.920
I was the chief, were practically the only witness.

795
00:53:57.599 --> 00:53:58.119
At the trial.

796
00:53:58.599 --> 00:54:01.519
And when they sentenced him here for life, he swore.

797
00:54:01.400 --> 00:54:01.880
To kill me.

798
00:54:02.519 --> 00:54:04.760
He swore in the open court to get even with me.

799
00:54:05.280 --> 00:54:07.480
For ten years, I've lived in deadly fear of him,

800
00:54:08.119 --> 00:54:09.199
and now he's free.

801
00:54:10.119 --> 00:54:13.639
And where exactly did you see the prison on this road?

802
00:54:13.840 --> 00:54:16.320
That's just the point. That's why I know he's after me.

803
00:54:16.880 --> 00:54:18.800
I saw him in the building.

804
00:54:18.440 --> 00:54:19.119
Where I live.

805
00:54:19.360 --> 00:54:21.519
Well, I don't he has a job there.

806
00:54:21.480 --> 00:54:24.239
Running the elevator at night. I live all alone in

807
00:54:24.360 --> 00:54:27.000
a small three room penthouse on the eighteenth floor of

808
00:54:27.039 --> 00:54:30.719
an office building. The other night, about a week ago,

809
00:54:31.480 --> 00:54:34.119
I came home alone from the movies after midnight.

810
00:54:34.920 --> 00:54:37.039
I was already in the elevator before I noticed that

811
00:54:37.159 --> 00:54:39.880
there was a new nightmare it was Tom.

812
00:54:40.719 --> 00:54:42.719
His hair had turned white, and there was a stoop

813
00:54:42.760 --> 00:54:45.000
to his shoulders, but everything about him, the crook of

814
00:54:45.039 --> 00:54:48.920
his head, his high, thin nose, hollowed cheek bones that

815
00:54:49.039 --> 00:54:52.159
were all the same. And then he turned and stared

816
00:54:52.199 --> 00:54:55.719
at me. I could see those deadly, pale, cold eyes,

817
00:54:55.840 --> 00:54:59.960
those heavy eyebrows, and that familiar, quiet, sarcastic mind.

818
00:55:01.239 --> 00:55:02.159
What flaw miss?

819
00:55:03.800 --> 00:55:03.920
Oh?

820
00:55:04.159 --> 00:55:04.280
Uh?

821
00:55:04.639 --> 00:55:07.800
My floor? Yes, the penthouse, please, the penthouse.

822
00:55:09.079 --> 00:55:10.239
Where is that on the roof?

823
00:55:10.559 --> 00:55:12.519
Yes, on the roof, please, eighteenth floor.

824
00:55:13.039 --> 00:55:13.440
Okay.

825
00:55:15.079 --> 00:55:17.519
It was like being in a cage with a wild beast.

826
00:55:18.079 --> 00:55:20.960
He kept watching me, tearing at me furtively. As the

827
00:55:21.000 --> 00:55:25.480
elevator moved upward with agonizing slowness, I shrank back to

828
00:55:25.559 --> 00:55:28.039
hide my face. The light in the car was dim.

829
00:55:28.480 --> 00:55:30.480
My only hope was that he didn't recognize me.

830
00:55:31.480 --> 00:55:32.480
Is your floor, miss?

831
00:55:35.119 --> 00:55:35.440
Thank you?

832
00:55:36.199 --> 00:55:36.599
Good night?

833
00:55:36.960 --> 00:55:42.199
Good night, good night.

834
00:55:42.760 --> 00:55:43.559
You can go back down.

835
00:55:44.920 --> 00:55:46.280
I don't need anything, thank you.

836
00:55:47.159 --> 00:55:48.199
Forget your dark key?

837
00:55:48.360 --> 00:55:51.760
No, no, no, it's just it's right here in my bag.

838
00:55:52.079 --> 00:55:52.559
I find it.

839
00:55:55.280 --> 00:55:57.960
Oh no, no, I got past keys to all the doors.

840
00:55:58.039 --> 00:55:59.519
It's no trouble, no.

841
00:55:59.719 --> 00:56:03.400
Thank you, but I no, oh here, I have it

842
00:56:03.519 --> 00:56:03.840
right here.

843
00:56:04.119 --> 00:56:08.599
Good night, and that was the first time you saw him.

844
00:56:08.840 --> 00:56:10.719
Yes, wouldn't and that.

845
00:56:10.880 --> 00:56:11.639
Was all he did?

846
00:56:12.039 --> 00:56:15.320
Her said, well, yes, but it wasn't so much what

847
00:56:15.480 --> 00:56:18.400
he said is the awful feeling that he was only

848
00:56:18.559 --> 00:56:21.559
playing with me, the torturing me until he was ready

849
00:56:21.639 --> 00:56:25.039
to kill me, wouldn't, Grace. I don't even have a phone.

850
00:56:25.519 --> 00:56:27.679
I've always been afraid to be listed in the phone book.

851
00:56:28.039 --> 00:56:29.920
The only way up to that tenth house was by.

852
00:56:29.880 --> 00:56:33.199
That one elevator. I was tracked up there at his mercy.

853
00:56:33.519 --> 00:56:34.039
What did you do?

854
00:56:35.119 --> 00:56:37.400
I spent the night crouched against the wall with a

855
00:56:37.519 --> 00:56:40.599
flat iron in my hand, just waiting for that key

856
00:56:40.679 --> 00:56:41.679
to click in my lock.

857
00:56:42.000 --> 00:56:42.679
But it didn't.

858
00:56:43.639 --> 00:56:45.039
No, it didn't.

859
00:56:46.360 --> 00:56:48.840
The next day I began to wonder if I wasn't

860
00:56:48.880 --> 00:56:53.159
imagining the whole thing. Then that night, just as I

861
00:56:53.280 --> 00:56:59.920
was going to bed, who is it?

862
00:57:02.679 --> 00:57:03.199
Who's there?

863
00:57:07.840 --> 00:57:08.000
Oh?

864
00:57:08.119 --> 00:57:10.800
Excuse me, miss Rhodes, There wasn't any answer.

865
00:57:10.599 --> 00:57:11.119
To my ring.

866
00:57:11.679 --> 00:57:12.239
What do you want?

867
00:57:12.639 --> 00:57:13.440
What are you doing here?

868
00:57:14.559 --> 00:57:15.440
Just your laundry?

869
00:57:16.000 --> 00:57:17.800
It told me to put it inside in case you

870
00:57:17.840 --> 00:57:18.320
weren't home.

871
00:57:20.119 --> 00:57:22.000
You might have given me time to answer the door.

872
00:57:22.559 --> 00:57:24.880
I'm sorry, miss Rose, I'm very sorry.

873
00:57:25.880 --> 00:57:27.639
Don't let it happen again. Good night.

874
00:57:28.800 --> 00:57:32.519
I'm just thinking you got no way to get up here,

875
00:57:33.119 --> 00:57:35.960
or to get down accepting my elevator.

876
00:57:37.239 --> 00:57:40.599
No, even the service elevator doesn't get up this far,

877
00:57:40.719 --> 00:57:41.000
does it.

878
00:57:41.800 --> 00:57:41.840
No?

879
00:57:43.199 --> 00:57:45.159
You're really alone up here, aren't you?

880
00:57:46.960 --> 00:57:51.440
Yes, Tom, Tom, have you come any closer?

881
00:57:51.519 --> 00:57:52.119
I'll kill you?

882
00:57:52.320 --> 00:57:52.800
Do you hear it?

883
00:57:53.320 --> 00:57:53.840
I'll kill you.

884
00:57:54.320 --> 00:57:56.320
I understand what you're talking about me.

885
00:58:01.679 --> 00:58:03.239
Yes, my pus, I'd.

886
00:58:03.159 --> 00:58:03.880
Better answer it.

887
00:58:19.880 --> 00:58:27.719
I haven't seen him since won.

888
00:58:28.559 --> 00:58:32.559
I barricaded myself in again that night, and next morning

889
00:58:32.880 --> 00:58:35.079
I got down to the public phone and put through

890
00:58:35.159 --> 00:58:35.679
the call to you.

891
00:58:36.480 --> 00:58:37.599
But it wasn't any use.

892
00:58:37.920 --> 00:58:39.599
That was the day I was out of town.

893
00:58:39.800 --> 00:58:42.559
Yes, but I still don't see why they couldn't have

894
00:58:42.639 --> 00:58:45.280
told me. After all, I was giving them information.

895
00:58:45.480 --> 00:58:48.320
It's one of our strictest regulations that us were part

896
00:58:48.320 --> 00:58:49.559
of my state penitentiary en.

897
00:58:49.559 --> 00:58:51.800
They were to discuss any of our prisoners.

898
00:58:51.440 --> 00:58:52.280
Over the telephone.

899
00:58:52.360 --> 00:58:53.199
That's what they said.

900
00:58:53.920 --> 00:58:57.360
So you came all the way out here in person? Yes,

901
00:58:58.559 --> 00:59:02.400
Now you wish me to send someone to apprehend this man.

902
00:59:02.599 --> 00:59:04.960
I want you to bring him back. That's all back,

903
00:59:05.079 --> 00:59:06.440
re belong, Miss Rhodes.

904
00:59:07.320 --> 00:59:11.039
I can't bring Tom Nixon back, he's here.

905
00:59:11.800 --> 00:59:13.599
Oh no, Warden Graves.

906
00:59:13.840 --> 00:59:16.920
Please, I've seen him with my own eyes. I talked

907
00:59:16.960 --> 00:59:19.760
to him face to face. Maybe there's someone here calling

908
00:59:19.880 --> 00:59:23.679
himself Tom Nixon. But he's escaped, he's free, I know it.

909
00:59:23.920 --> 00:59:26.920
Will you just step this way with me, Miss Rhodes.

910
00:59:27.039 --> 00:59:28.400
No, no, I don't want to.

911
00:59:28.719 --> 00:59:31.159
I don't want to see a cellar, talk to anybody

912
00:59:31.320 --> 00:59:31.840
or anything else.

913
00:59:31.920 --> 00:59:36.880
Tom Nixon's dead, Miss Rhodes. He's buried in the prison cemetery.

914
00:59:38.119 --> 00:59:39.639
I'd like you to see his grave.

915
00:59:46.239 --> 00:59:46.440
Now.

916
00:59:46.800 --> 00:59:49.280
This is a photograph taken of him just a week

917
00:59:49.400 --> 00:59:53.599
before he died. See, he wasted away quite a bit.

918
00:59:54.239 --> 00:59:57.320
He was in the infirmary all last year. Came very

919
00:59:57.400 --> 01:00:02.360
religious too, toward the end, a deal of his time praying, praying,

920
01:00:02.599 --> 01:00:05.039
Yes all The fight seemed to go out of him

921
01:00:05.039 --> 01:00:06.760
as soon as he knew he was seriously ill.

922
01:00:07.800 --> 01:00:11.320
But you'd say this was his picture, wouldn't you, Miss.

923
01:00:11.239 --> 01:00:16.239
Rhodes, Yes, he said, Tom, all right, And these.

924
01:00:16.079 --> 01:00:17.679
Little personal belongings.

925
01:00:19.000 --> 01:00:22.559
Ordinarily we turned these over to the family, but Tom's case,

926
01:00:22.639 --> 01:00:25.480
will we couldn't trace any family.

927
01:00:26.480 --> 01:00:28.920
You'd recognize these as his?

928
01:00:30.159 --> 01:00:33.280
Yes, I don't know them all, but with that gold watch.

929
01:00:34.000 --> 01:00:36.239
He used to wear it every Sunday at Mothers.

930
01:00:36.639 --> 01:00:38.800
He wrote a couple of notes before he died to

931
01:00:38.960 --> 01:00:41.639
a fellow prisoner and to the prison chaplain.

932
01:00:42.639 --> 01:00:45.079
You recognize this handwriting.

933
01:00:46.480 --> 01:00:49.039
Yes, it seems to be Tom's.

934
01:00:50.599 --> 01:00:55.880
Well, Miss Rhodes, feel a little better about your elevator operator.

935
01:00:56.000 --> 01:01:00.880
Now you must think me a fool, an awful.

936
01:01:00.559 --> 01:01:01.519
Fool, not at all.

937
01:01:02.320 --> 01:01:06.960
But the lightness was so extraordinary. He was almost like

938
01:01:07.280 --> 01:01:08.480
seeing a ghost.

939
01:01:08.280 --> 01:01:08.760
A ghost.

940
01:01:11.199 --> 01:01:13.159
Oh, come, come, miss Roads.

941
01:01:14.639 --> 01:01:17.119
Now that you've gotten all this off your chest, isn't

942
01:01:17.159 --> 01:01:21.119
it perfectly obvious that poor night man's done nothing or

943
01:01:21.199 --> 01:01:23.239
said nothing to you at all out of the ordinary.

944
01:01:23.880 --> 01:01:27.400
It's only the well. You seem to be the victim

945
01:01:27.480 --> 01:01:30.000
of some kind of guilt complex.

946
01:01:30.119 --> 01:01:32.639
Guilt complex, why not guilty of anything?

947
01:01:33.039 --> 01:01:36.079
What I mean is Tom has been on your mind

948
01:01:36.239 --> 01:01:40.679
now for ten years. You testified against him, he threatened you.

949
01:01:41.440 --> 01:01:44.760
Gradually you came to see him everywhere.

950
01:01:44.960 --> 01:01:48.920
No, no, only this one's only these last few nights.

951
01:01:49.039 --> 01:01:52.679
All right, But now you know the truth that should

952
01:01:52.760 --> 01:01:57.519
clear your fears forever. Tom's dead and buried. Go back

953
01:01:57.559 --> 01:02:00.719
and take a look at this nightmn again. Now that

954
01:02:00.840 --> 01:02:04.760
you know Tom's dead, I'll lay out of the whole resemblance.

955
01:02:04.239 --> 01:02:05.719
Will vanish I hope.

956
01:02:05.800 --> 01:02:08.960
So my advice to you, Miss Rhodes, would be to

957
01:02:09.039 --> 01:02:12.519
go straight home, use that elevator as much as possible,

958
01:02:13.239 --> 01:02:16.239
get acquainted with his knife man for your own sake,

959
01:02:17.079 --> 01:02:19.760
try to get the better of these hallucinations.

960
01:02:20.320 --> 01:02:23.079
Well that's all they are, just hallucinations.

961
01:02:53.039 --> 01:02:54.559
Oh, good evening, miss.

962
01:02:55.280 --> 01:02:57.280
Could you help me with these bags please?

963
01:02:58.000 --> 01:02:58.360
Okay?

964
01:03:02.000 --> 01:03:02.239
Yeah?

965
01:03:03.400 --> 01:03:03.880
Oh miss?

966
01:03:04.400 --> 01:03:05.000
Yes, thank you?

967
01:03:05.760 --> 01:03:07.280
Oh this is for you.

968
01:03:07.519 --> 01:03:08.599
No, thank you, Miss.

969
01:03:09.039 --> 01:03:13.639
I never take tips, it's all right, but i'd like

970
01:03:13.719 --> 01:03:16.039
you to have it. I'm sure the superintendent wouldn't mind.

971
01:03:16.159 --> 01:03:17.840
Contenda hasn't got anything to do with it.

972
01:03:18.440 --> 01:03:22.079
Oh well, aren't we going to start?

973
01:03:23.000 --> 01:03:34.119
Yeah all right? Been out of town, Well, yes, yes

974
01:03:34.199 --> 01:03:37.480
I have. I haven't seen you for a couple of nights.

975
01:03:38.079 --> 01:03:46.719
I was in the country visiting a friend. Oh it's

976
01:03:47.039 --> 01:03:48.039
beautiful weather.

977
01:03:48.000 --> 01:03:49.760
Out in the country this time of year.

978
01:03:50.599 --> 01:03:51.159
I wouldn't know.

979
01:03:58.199 --> 01:03:59.760
Well, this is my floor already.

980
01:04:00.519 --> 01:04:01.719
No, no, it's not.

981
01:04:02.800 --> 01:04:05.480
Then why we're stopping elevators?

982
01:04:05.519 --> 01:04:05.800
Stuck?

983
01:04:06.599 --> 01:04:07.719
Powers, cut off.

984
01:04:07.920 --> 01:04:08.559
Cut off?

985
01:04:10.400 --> 01:04:13.760
But how could that happen? Which never happened before as

986
01:04:13.800 --> 01:04:14.679
long as I've lived here.

987
01:04:14.800 --> 01:04:17.199
Well, sooner or later. I guess it had to happen.

988
01:04:18.519 --> 01:04:20.719
Isn't there some way we can get it back on

989
01:04:22.159 --> 01:04:23.840
with some buzzer for the cellar or something?

990
01:04:23.920 --> 01:04:26.840
If the power is off, the buzzer isn't working, so

991
01:04:26.960 --> 01:04:28.079
one of the lights is still on.

992
01:04:28.679 --> 01:04:29.119
The lights.

993
01:04:29.360 --> 01:04:32.880
Yeah, they'll probably go out in a minute, though, and

994
01:04:33.000 --> 01:04:36.239
then it'll be black in here, black.

995
01:04:35.960 --> 01:04:36.639
As the gray.

996
01:04:38.000 --> 01:04:39.880
But let's get out of here.

997
01:04:40.320 --> 01:04:42.719
Open the door, can't won't budge.

998
01:04:43.320 --> 01:04:44.679
But you haven't even tried.

999
01:04:44.679 --> 01:04:45.719
I don't have to try.

1000
01:04:46.000 --> 01:04:49.840
We're stuck between floors, the doors flush with solid wall,

1001
01:04:50.480 --> 01:04:51.239
solid wool.

1002
01:04:51.400 --> 01:04:56.079
Yeah, kind of like being bricked up in a cell.

1003
01:04:56.760 --> 01:04:59.559
But there must be some way out of here.

1004
01:05:00.960 --> 01:05:02.800
Is there a little door in the roof, something you

1005
01:05:02.840 --> 01:05:05.840
can pry open, something you can climb up out of.

1006
01:05:05.960 --> 01:05:07.480
Into the chaf I don't see any.

1007
01:05:08.400 --> 01:05:09.239
But what are we going to do?

1008
01:05:09.800 --> 01:05:10.480
What are we going to do?

1009
01:05:10.760 --> 01:05:10.960
Wait?

1010
01:05:11.880 --> 01:05:17.920
Wait, wait until somebody comes along downstairs and finds the

1011
01:05:17.960 --> 01:05:21.559
elevator stuck and then rings up the superintendent.

1012
01:05:21.840 --> 01:05:25.559
But that might be ours might be.

1013
01:05:26.559 --> 01:05:33.400
No sting your breath.

1014
01:05:34.719 --> 01:05:38.679
Everybody's left the building, I know, because they've all signed out.

1015
01:05:39.920 --> 01:05:42.079
Nobody's down in the basement, and there won't be any

1016
01:05:42.159 --> 01:05:44.519
passengers ringing for an elevator this time of night.

1017
01:05:46.000 --> 01:05:50.199
You you most be sure about that, all that jumpy,

1018
01:05:50.519 --> 01:05:50.840
ain't you?

1019
01:05:51.639 --> 01:05:56.000
No? No, I suppose there's nothing to be afraid of.

1020
01:05:56.960 --> 01:05:58.079
Sooner or later they'll come.

1021
01:05:58.320 --> 01:05:59.679
Oh, sure, sooner.

1022
01:06:01.000 --> 01:06:04.480
It's just that we're being stuck up here between.

1023
01:06:04.519 --> 01:06:06.440
You're not jumpy on accon of me.

1024
01:06:07.280 --> 01:06:11.199
You No, no, because not.

1025
01:06:11.400 --> 01:06:15.079
But you were kind of jumpy with me the other night.

1026
01:06:15.760 --> 01:06:19.639
Weren't you the other night when I brought the laundry

1027
01:06:19.719 --> 01:06:21.840
into your apartment unexpectedly?

1028
01:06:23.480 --> 01:06:25.760
Oh that that was a mistake.

1029
01:06:26.920 --> 01:06:29.719
Yes, I just thought you was someone else, a friend

1030
01:06:29.760 --> 01:06:33.960
of mine, someone i'd always been afraid of. But now

1031
01:06:34.000 --> 01:06:36.440
I've learned it couldn't be you, because this friend's dead,

1032
01:06:36.719 --> 01:06:38.280
dead and buried dead?

1033
01:06:38.360 --> 01:06:44.559
And what was his name? Maybe I know him? The

1034
01:06:44.679 --> 01:06:47.480
lights rout, I know they go sooner or later.

1035
01:06:49.360 --> 01:06:51.199
No, no, they can't.

1036
01:06:52.480 --> 01:06:54.920
I can't stay here alone in the dark with you.

1037
01:06:55.239 --> 01:06:56.639
Oh you are jumpy with me?

1038
01:06:56.920 --> 01:06:56.960
No?

1039
01:06:57.400 --> 01:06:59.800
No, I thought you said this guy was dead and.

1040
01:07:00.760 --> 01:07:02.079
He is hed.

1041
01:07:02.280 --> 01:07:04.039
I like that.

1042
01:07:05.320 --> 01:07:10.079
I'm not screaming. Only it's so dark in here, it's

1043
01:07:10.119 --> 01:07:11.599
so close and creepy.

1044
01:07:11.679 --> 01:07:14.480
What did you do to this friend that makes you

1045
01:07:14.639 --> 01:07:16.719
so jumpy do to.

1046
01:07:16.840 --> 01:07:20.320
Him Nothing, I didn't do a thing. No, it was he.

1047
01:07:20.679 --> 01:07:21.239
He threatened me.

1048
01:07:21.920 --> 01:07:24.880
He was a murderer. He killed my mother in cold

1049
01:07:24.960 --> 01:07:26.239
blood ten years ago.

1050
01:07:27.280 --> 01:07:29.199
He was our border for ten years.

1051
01:07:30.159 --> 01:07:33.440
And then one afternoon I came home and there was

1052
01:07:33.559 --> 01:07:36.400
mother lying on the floor with a truth.

1053
01:07:37.639 --> 01:07:39.960
No where are you gone?

1054
01:07:41.079 --> 01:07:41.119
No?

1055
01:07:42.679 --> 01:07:45.159
No, I can't stand it.

1056
01:07:45.239 --> 01:07:47.519
I can't, Tom.

1057
01:07:49.199 --> 01:07:49.519
It is you.

1058
01:07:50.280 --> 01:07:53.440
I thought you said your friend was dead and buried.

1059
01:07:54.360 --> 01:07:55.360
Stop torturing me.

1060
01:07:56.320 --> 01:07:57.000
Tell me the truth.

1061
01:07:57.480 --> 01:08:00.480
You escaped, didn't you. You didn't die, and it was

1062
01:08:00.559 --> 01:08:03.159
someone else, someone else as grave judge, as I thought

1063
01:08:03.719 --> 01:08:08.119
you escaped to Tom me here, answer me, Tom, where

1064
01:08:08.159 --> 01:08:08.400
are you?

1065
01:08:08.760 --> 01:08:09.519
I can't see you?

1066
01:08:12.880 --> 01:08:16.079
No, Tom, No, Tom, I didn't mean it.

1067
01:08:16.279 --> 01:08:16.720
I didn't.

1068
01:08:17.479 --> 01:08:19.039
I didn't mean to send you there.

1069
01:08:20.159 --> 01:08:23.039
It was only because I loved your job, and I

1070
01:08:23.159 --> 01:08:25.199
hated mother and hated.

1071
01:08:24.920 --> 01:08:25.760
You, but loving her.

1072
01:08:26.880 --> 01:08:28.960
It's only to get revenge on your pull that I

1073
01:08:29.159 --> 01:08:33.760
killed her and framed you. Thought it was so cruel

1074
01:08:33.800 --> 01:08:34.399
to meet Tom.

1075
01:08:35.039 --> 01:08:38.239
She dream me like a slave, and all the time

1076
01:08:39.359 --> 01:08:40.640
thoughting you in my face.

1077
01:08:41.800 --> 01:08:44.079
If you've spoken one kind word to meet.

1078
01:08:43.960 --> 01:08:47.079
Tom at the trial, just one word to let me

1079
01:08:47.199 --> 01:08:54.359
know you love me, You're going to kill me, aren't you?

1080
01:08:54.439 --> 01:08:54.680
Tom?

1081
01:08:57.199 --> 01:08:57.239
No?

1082
01:08:58.640 --> 01:09:00.680
No, Tom, I don't want to die.

1083
01:09:00.920 --> 01:09:01.880
I don't want to die.

1084
01:09:06.119 --> 01:09:07.039
Why are we going down?

1085
01:09:07.560 --> 01:09:09.680
There's a passenger ringing in the lobby.

1086
01:09:12.680 --> 01:09:14.840
Then you're not Tom.

1087
01:09:15.439 --> 01:09:15.960
No, Miss.

1088
01:09:18.079 --> 01:09:20.680
You're not going to kill me, not me.

1089
01:09:22.600 --> 01:09:27.000
It was all just a crazy hallucination, just because the

1090
01:09:27.159 --> 01:09:33.960
power went off, and and look so much like Tom Mixon. Oh, oh,

1091
01:09:34.039 --> 01:09:36.359
forgive me, Please forgive me for.

1092
01:09:36.680 --> 01:09:40.199
Himself up saved has nothing to forgive. And you'll forget

1093
01:09:40.239 --> 01:09:41.960
all about these silly things I said, won't you.

1094
01:09:42.359 --> 01:09:44.560
I didn't mean them. It was just because I was

1095
01:09:44.640 --> 01:09:45.439
beside myself.

1096
01:09:45.640 --> 01:09:46.640
What silly things?

1097
01:09:48.720 --> 01:09:50.960
Silly he thinks about about my mother?

1098
01:09:51.079 --> 01:09:51.720
And Tom?

1099
01:09:52.800 --> 01:09:52.960
Here?

1100
01:09:53.279 --> 01:09:53.960
Yeah, this is for you.

1101
01:09:54.359 --> 01:09:55.640
No, No, I insist this time.

1102
01:09:55.720 --> 01:09:55.960
I am.

1103
01:09:56.439 --> 01:09:57.800
I'm sorry, but I'm afraid.

1104
01:09:57.840 --> 01:10:01.720
I never accept tips, but I want, particularly from a

1105
01:10:01.840 --> 01:10:04.279
dame who framed my twin brother.

1106
01:10:07.800 --> 01:10:10.279
Evening, good evening, Lieutenant Nixon.

1107
01:10:11.119 --> 01:10:13.399
She confessed, I thought she would.

1108
01:10:13.239 --> 01:10:16.119
Lieutenant No no.

1109
01:10:36.840 --> 01:10:40.880
Suspence, in which Miss Marshall Hunts starred in William and

1110
01:10:41.000 --> 01:10:45.680
Robeson's production of Nightmare, written by Lucille Fletcher. Supporting Miss

1111
01:10:45.720 --> 01:10:48.920
Marsha Hunting, Tonight's story were Laurence Stobkin and Charles Seal.

1112
01:10:54.079 --> 01:10:58.279
When it comes to the past, are you good at

1113
01:10:58.399 --> 01:11:04.600
letting it be just that the past inherently behind you?

1114
01:11:04.840 --> 01:11:10.720
As it were? Sometimes I find that I struggle. Sometimes

1115
01:11:10.840 --> 01:11:15.039
I wonder if I'm actually a part of the past,

1116
01:11:16.159 --> 01:11:19.199
not the way that we all are, but in a

1117
01:11:19.319 --> 01:11:24.880
more active way. I yearn for the days when I

1118
01:11:25.000 --> 01:11:30.000
felt I was purposeful and jubilant, when I felt like

1119
01:11:30.239 --> 01:11:34.079
I mattered to the grand scheme of things far better,

1120
01:11:35.439 --> 01:11:40.119
far more. But as I've learned, the truth really is

1121
01:11:41.359 --> 01:11:41.800
the good.

1122
01:11:42.840 --> 01:11:56.399
Die Young, a mysterious traveler.

1123
01:12:09.840 --> 01:12:13.760
This is the mysterious traveler inviting you to join him

1124
01:12:14.239 --> 01:12:17.800
on another journey into the realm of the strange and terrifying.

1125
01:12:18.960 --> 01:12:21.880
I hope you will enjoy the trip, that it will

1126
01:12:22.399 --> 01:12:26.479
trill you a little and chill you a little. So

1127
01:12:26.760 --> 01:12:31.760
settle back, get a good grip on your nerves. I

1128
01:12:31.920 --> 01:12:34.720
hope it's not making you nervous. Being alone with me

1129
01:12:34.800 --> 01:12:39.880
here in the dark. Darkness stirs strange tellors in some minds,

1130
01:12:41.239 --> 01:12:46.000
particularly those of children. But children live in a world

1131
01:12:46.039 --> 01:12:48.159
of their own, a world.

1132
01:12:48.680 --> 01:12:50.800
Far removed from that of adults.

1133
01:12:51.680 --> 01:12:55.479
Among us knows the psychology of the child mind with

1134
01:12:55.640 --> 01:12:56.840
its devious.

1135
01:12:56.760 --> 01:12:58.079
Thoughts and actions.

1136
01:12:58.920 --> 01:12:59.840
As in the Tale of.

1137
01:13:01.800 --> 01:13:02.720
The Good Dye.

1138
01:13:03.000 --> 01:13:13.439
Young years ago, when I was practicing medicine, I brought

1139
01:13:13.439 --> 01:13:17.720
a child into the world, a girl who was named Sandra.

1140
01:13:18.760 --> 01:13:21.720
In the years that followed, she grew into an extremely

1141
01:13:22.119 --> 01:13:27.359
beautiful and the clever child. My story begins the day

1142
01:13:27.439 --> 01:13:31.079
that Martha, the housekeeper, was finishing her duties for the

1143
01:13:31.199 --> 01:13:31.840
last time.

1144
01:13:34.039 --> 01:13:38.079
Sundra, come in here. I want to see you, Sundra.

1145
01:13:38.680 --> 01:13:40.039
Were you calling me, Martha?

1146
01:13:40.880 --> 01:13:43.840
Yes, I told you to come right home after school.

1147
01:13:44.319 --> 01:13:44.960
Where have you been?

1148
01:13:45.159 --> 01:13:45.319
Oh?

1149
01:13:45.439 --> 01:13:46.800
I'm sorry, Martha.

1150
01:13:47.199 --> 01:13:49.000
I didn't hear you tell me to come home night

1151
01:13:49.039 --> 01:13:49.680
after school.

1152
01:13:50.039 --> 01:13:53.159
I'm sorry, truly, I am save. You're acting for your father,

1153
01:13:53.279 --> 01:13:57.479
young lady. It hasn't fooled me for a long time, Saunder,

1154
01:13:57.560 --> 01:13:59.640
since your mother died, to becoming more and more of

1155
01:13:59.720 --> 01:14:03.159
a pro every day. Well, at least after the night,

1156
01:14:03.159 --> 01:14:04.560
I won't have to put up with your lives and

1157
01:14:04.600 --> 01:14:07.560
your thousand and one little tricks. What do you mean, Martha,

1158
01:14:07.920 --> 01:14:10.760
your father won't be meeting a housekeeper any more. I'm

1159
01:14:10.840 --> 01:14:15.479
leaving tonight. But why well, I'm not supposed to tell you.

1160
01:14:16.479 --> 01:14:19.000
You may as well know now as later. Your father

1161
01:14:19.159 --> 01:14:21.520
is bringing home a new mother for you tonight, a

1162
01:14:21.680 --> 01:14:24.359
new mother. Yes, he's just married again.

1163
01:14:24.520 --> 01:14:26.319
But I don't want a new mother. Daddy and I

1164
01:14:26.439 --> 01:14:27.920
don't need anyone else. We're happy the.

1165
01:14:27.920 --> 01:14:29.800
Way we are. Andra, stop screaming.

1166
01:14:29.920 --> 01:14:31.000
I won't have it, do you hear?

1167
01:14:31.079 --> 01:14:31.760
I won't have it.

1168
01:14:32.239 --> 01:14:35.039
Your new mother's a very fine woman. I met her

1169
01:14:35.119 --> 01:14:35.600
last time.

1170
01:14:35.800 --> 01:14:36.399
I hate her.

1171
01:14:36.520 --> 01:14:37.079
I hate her.

1172
01:14:37.399 --> 01:14:39.319
Daddy's mine and no one else that she hasn't any

1173
01:14:39.399 --> 01:14:39.840
right to it.

1174
01:14:39.920 --> 01:14:41.920
If you don't stop that screaming, I'll tell your father

1175
01:14:42.000 --> 01:14:42.880
when he comes home to night.

1176
01:14:43.000 --> 01:14:44.199
Oh no, no, no, don't do that.

1177
01:14:44.680 --> 01:14:48.880
I'll be good, but I hate her and I always will.

1178
01:14:49.159 --> 01:14:49.880
Never stap.

1179
01:14:50.640 --> 01:14:54.279
That's a fine way to talk. Perhaps ought to warn

1180
01:14:54.359 --> 01:14:58.880
the poor woman about Sandra. And it's not of my business. Besides,

1181
01:14:58.960 --> 01:15:14.000
she'll find out about it soon enough. And it's ridiculous

1182
01:15:14.039 --> 01:15:16.079
you're carrying me across the thresholder nodding.

1183
01:15:16.159 --> 01:15:17.960
It's tradition in my family to carry the bride over

1184
01:15:18.039 --> 01:15:18.560
the threshold.

1185
01:15:19.439 --> 01:15:24.800
There you are, Oh, Stephen, what a lovely.

1186
01:15:25.720 --> 01:15:27.960
You haven't seen the best part of it yet, Sandra.

1187
01:15:28.239 --> 01:15:29.640
Do you think she'll like me? Stephen?

1188
01:15:30.000 --> 01:15:32.239
I do so want or too, of course you will.

1189
01:15:32.359 --> 01:15:34.479
Perhaps you should have told her about us instead of

1190
01:15:34.560 --> 01:15:35.359
breaking it to her so.

1191
01:15:35.479 --> 01:15:38.840
Unexpectedly, like, Oh, nonsense, Helen. I know my daughter. She's

1192
01:15:38.880 --> 01:15:41.479
a wonderful child, and she'll fall madly in love with

1193
01:15:41.560 --> 01:15:45.039
you at the first sight. This as her father did. Sandra,

1194
01:15:45.279 --> 01:15:48.439
Where are you, daddy, Yeddy Merily.

1195
01:15:48.439 --> 01:15:49.319
I'm so glad?

1196
01:15:49.760 --> 01:15:54.439
Are you dudding dead? I have a surprise for you,

1197
01:15:54.760 --> 01:15:59.680
A surprise, Sandra. This is Helen, Helen. I want you

1198
01:15:59.720 --> 01:16:05.560
to meet my daughter, Sandra. Hello, Sandra, Hello darling. Yeah, surprise.

1199
01:16:05.680 --> 01:16:09.920
I just mentioned is Helen. We were married this afternoon.

1200
01:16:10.439 --> 01:16:12.039
That means that Helen is now your mother.

1201
01:16:12.239 --> 01:16:15.479
Oh, daddy, that's wonderful. No, I'll have a mother just

1202
01:16:15.600 --> 01:16:16.680
like all the other girls do.

1203
01:16:16.920 --> 01:16:17.039
Oh.

1204
01:16:17.119 --> 01:16:20.600
I'm so glad, so am I Sandra, And I'm sure

1205
01:16:20.680 --> 01:16:22.680
we're all going to be very happy to get that.

1206
01:16:22.800 --> 01:16:23.560
Of course we are.

1207
01:16:33.479 --> 01:16:36.640
That night, after the family had said goodbye to Martha

1208
01:16:36.720 --> 01:16:40.560
and seen her off, Sandra was sent to bed. She

1209
01:16:40.760 --> 01:16:45.880
lay quietly in the darkness, thinking occasionally she would speak

1210
01:16:45.960 --> 01:16:47.640
softly to her door Barbara.

1211
01:16:49.319 --> 01:16:52.640
She hasn't any right being here, Barbara. Daddy and I

1212
01:16:52.760 --> 01:16:56.640
were perfectly happy until she came along tonight. He didn't

1213
01:16:56.640 --> 01:17:00.920
even notice me, just kept looking at her. Well, she

1214
01:17:01.159 --> 01:17:02.119
shan't have him.

1215
01:17:02.560 --> 01:17:05.119
He's always been mine and he always will be.

1216
01:17:20.520 --> 01:17:20.840
Fish.

1217
01:17:21.319 --> 01:17:22.119
That's enough of that.

1218
01:17:23.039 --> 01:17:24.319
Now, let me see.

1219
01:17:36.000 --> 01:17:38.079
This is the second time this afternoon I've lost your

1220
01:17:38.119 --> 01:17:40.479
not to found the keys that way. That's no way

1221
01:17:40.520 --> 01:17:44.279
to play unsigned, mother. It's not only the piano, dear.

1222
01:17:45.159 --> 01:17:47.960
There are many other little things, and you pay no

1223
01:17:48.039 --> 01:17:49.680
attention when I speak to you about them.

1224
01:17:49.840 --> 01:17:52.159
I don't mean to do them, mother, I just forget.

1225
01:17:52.439 --> 01:17:55.279
Well, please try to remember, dear. Now, I want you

1226
01:17:55.359 --> 01:17:57.520
to play the piano which you did last night for Daddy.

1227
01:17:58.039 --> 01:17:59.079
He was very please.

1228
01:17:59.560 --> 01:18:14.720
Yes, yes, mother, I thought I asked you to stop

1229
01:18:14.760 --> 01:18:17.239
pawning the piano like that. But mother, I was just

1230
01:18:17.359 --> 01:18:19.079
composing a new piece for Daddy.

1231
01:18:19.600 --> 01:18:23.560
That wasn't music, Sondra, but just noise. That'll be enough

1232
01:18:23.640 --> 01:18:24.039
for to day.

1233
01:18:36.520 --> 01:18:38.479
Hello, beet phone, how are you darling?

1234
01:18:40.600 --> 01:18:43.720
Well, I wasn't sender the door to meet me. She's

1235
01:18:43.760 --> 01:18:44.399
all right, didn't she?

1236
01:18:44.880 --> 01:18:45.520
Of course? Dear?

1237
01:18:46.439 --> 01:18:48.079
Uh Stephen.

1238
01:18:49.520 --> 01:18:52.680
I was a bit angry with Sondra this afternoon, angry

1239
01:18:52.800 --> 01:18:56.760
with Hi, what do you do? Well? Several times this

1240
01:18:56.880 --> 01:18:59.840
afternoon I had to speak to her about pawning the

1241
01:18:59.880 --> 01:19:01.520
piano being loud and.

1242
01:19:01.560 --> 01:19:05.159
Discordant, and that isn't like Sandra. You know how well

1243
01:19:05.239 --> 01:19:05.680
she plays.

1244
01:19:06.000 --> 01:19:09.079
Yes, of course that wasn't the way she played today.

1245
01:19:10.159 --> 01:19:12.800
Oh, I'll go up and see her all right.

1246
01:19:13.600 --> 01:19:35.279
Supper was through. What's oh daddy, Daddy, what's wrong?

1247
01:19:36.920 --> 01:19:37.880
You'll never cry.

1248
01:19:39.239 --> 01:19:41.800
I was only trying to compose a new piece for

1249
01:19:41.920 --> 01:19:43.560
your birthday next month.

1250
01:19:43.720 --> 01:19:45.000
A new piece for my birthday.

1251
01:19:45.720 --> 01:19:47.960
Yes, I wanted to surprise you.

1252
01:19:51.039 --> 01:19:54.399
You mustn't pay. I'm sure, mother, I understand. You didn't

1253
01:19:54.399 --> 01:19:57.279
mean to be bad. Now here, let me wipe your tears.

1254
01:19:58.279 --> 01:20:02.279
Oh daddy, I love you. So I just wanted to

1255
01:20:02.359 --> 01:20:04.239
compose something wonderful for you.

1256
01:20:04.560 --> 01:20:05.640
I understand, Darlie.

1257
01:20:06.159 --> 01:20:08.800
Oh Eddy, you always understand.

1258
01:20:20.680 --> 01:20:23.600
It's up a right down m for Sondra.

1259
01:20:24.159 --> 01:20:28.720
She'll be down in a minute. Helen, Yes, Stephen, she

1260
01:20:28.880 --> 01:20:30.880
really didn't mean to pound on the piano and get

1261
01:20:30.920 --> 01:20:33.520
on your nerves. It's just she was trying to compose

1262
01:20:33.600 --> 01:20:34.359
a new piece for me.

1263
01:20:34.920 --> 01:20:37.840
But Stephen, it wasn't music. It was just noise.

1264
01:20:38.199 --> 01:20:41.720
Well, it mustn't be harsh. Whether you know what children

1265
01:20:41.800 --> 01:20:44.079
are like in their enthusiasm, They forget what they're told.

1266
01:20:44.199 --> 01:20:48.960
But Stephen, I don't know exactly what to say.

1267
01:20:49.800 --> 01:20:52.479
It's just a question of being patient with her winning

1268
01:20:52.520 --> 01:20:53.880
her love, all.

1269
01:20:53.840 --> 01:20:57.119
Right, Stephen. Perhaps I was a bit impatient with her.

1270
01:20:58.319 --> 01:21:00.439
You know, I want nothing more than for the three

1271
01:21:00.479 --> 01:21:01.640
of us to be happy together.

1272
01:21:01.920 --> 01:21:04.600
I know that Darling and the three of us will

1273
01:21:04.680 --> 01:21:05.439
be happy together.

1274
01:21:11.560 --> 01:21:15.199
In the weeks that followed, Helen tried to overlook Sandra's

1275
01:21:15.359 --> 01:21:18.920
slamming of doors and constant droppings of objects and other

1276
01:21:19.560 --> 01:21:23.960
nerve racking incidents. In time, she felt Sandra would come

1277
01:21:24.000 --> 01:21:26.560
to accept her love and guidance.

1278
01:21:27.159 --> 01:21:29.359
It was just a matter of patience.

1279
01:21:31.039 --> 01:21:33.359
Sondra, is that you yet, mother?

1280
01:21:34.159 --> 01:21:35.760
Please sit down there. I want to talk to you,

1281
01:21:35.920 --> 01:21:36.880
all right, but do her.

1282
01:21:37.079 --> 01:21:39.199
Daddy'll be home soon, Sandra.

1283
01:21:40.039 --> 01:21:42.279
Every day I've been giving you milk money for school.

1284
01:21:43.199 --> 01:21:45.319
Why haven't you been buying milk with that money? But

1285
01:21:45.520 --> 01:21:48.640
I have been, mother, not Please, Sandra, I won't punish you.

1286
01:21:49.319 --> 01:21:50.760
I just want to know what you've been doing with

1287
01:21:50.840 --> 01:21:51.279
that money.

1288
01:21:51.600 --> 01:21:52.920
I've been buying milk with.

1289
01:21:53.039 --> 01:21:56.680
It, please missus. Gordon, your teacher told me you haven't

1290
01:21:56.680 --> 01:21:58.760
bought and looked for almost a month now, but I have.

1291
01:21:58.960 --> 01:22:01.920
She just Gondre, I won't have you lying to me.

1292
01:22:03.119 --> 01:22:05.159
Now that's your father. We'll see what he has to

1293
01:22:05.159 --> 01:22:05.680
say about this.

1294
01:22:08.800 --> 01:22:09.920
You don't understand.

1295
01:22:10.439 --> 01:22:12.880
You just don't understand, Stephen.

1296
01:22:16.840 --> 01:22:17.800
What are you about?

1297
01:22:18.159 --> 01:22:22.680
I'm sorry, Stephen, but I think you better speak to her.

1298
01:22:23.039 --> 01:22:25.119
You just do it, juststand.

1299
01:22:26.640 --> 01:22:29.039
Missus Gordon. Her teacher told me to day that for

1300
01:22:29.159 --> 01:22:31.840
the past month Sonder hasn't been buying milk? What enough money?

1301
01:22:31.880 --> 01:22:33.039
Is that true?

1302
01:22:33.119 --> 01:22:35.920
And what's worse? Stephen? When I asked Sandra about it,

1303
01:22:36.039 --> 01:22:38.199
she lies and said that she had been buying milk.

1304
01:22:40.520 --> 01:22:42.119
Isn't like you to lie about things.

1305
01:22:42.720 --> 01:22:46.039
I didn't mean to lie about it. I just wanted

1306
01:22:46.079 --> 01:22:55.199
to give it a surprise your birthday present. I saved

1307
01:22:55.279 --> 01:22:57.720
my milk money so that I can buy you a pike.

1308
01:22:59.000 --> 01:23:03.079
It's hearing this for you, Sondra. Did you know I'd

1309
01:23:03.079 --> 01:23:05.359
have given you money to buy a birthday present for Daddy.

1310
01:23:05.520 --> 01:23:08.720
It isn't the same thing. I wanted to buy my

1311
01:23:08.800 --> 01:23:10.199
present with my own money.

1312
01:23:11.119 --> 01:23:14.560
I'm sorry so well. You might have told me about

1313
01:23:14.600 --> 01:23:15.680
it when I asked you, and.

1314
01:23:15.760 --> 01:23:18.760
Then it wouldn't have been a real surprise. I didn't

1315
01:23:18.800 --> 01:23:20.079
want a surprise.

1316
01:23:19.760 --> 01:23:23.119
Daddy, so would you have that this is a beautiful pipe.

1317
01:23:23.319 --> 01:23:27.359
No surprise is spoiled. Your brisday isn't till tomorrow.

1318
01:23:29.600 --> 01:23:31.319
It means I'll be able to smoke this pipe tonight.

1319
01:23:32.960 --> 01:23:35.319
Stop trying. You go upstairs and wash your face and

1320
01:23:35.399 --> 01:23:35.720
hair man.

1321
01:23:37.520 --> 01:23:38.600
All right, daddy.

1322
01:23:40.680 --> 01:23:43.800
I'm sorry, Stephen, but I had no idea what she'd

1323
01:23:43.840 --> 01:23:45.720
done with the money, and she did lie when I

1324
01:23:45.760 --> 01:23:46.479
asked her about it.

1325
01:23:47.239 --> 01:23:49.199
If you don't have a little more faith in heaven,

1326
01:23:50.079 --> 01:23:52.920
I know it's difficult to understand her times, but that's

1327
01:23:53.000 --> 01:23:55.520
because as a child she looks at things differently.

1328
01:23:56.319 --> 01:23:59.680
I'm sorry, Stephen if you think I'll fail.

1329
01:23:59.520 --> 01:24:01.840
With her what happened to Helen. I'm sure that in

1330
01:24:01.960 --> 01:24:03.640
times she'll come to love you as much as she

1331
01:24:03.720 --> 01:24:04.079
loves me.

1332
01:24:05.159 --> 01:24:08.760
I don't know, Stephen. I often wonder about that.

1333
01:24:14.640 --> 01:24:18.600
Because the weeks went by, Helen found herself coming no

1334
01:24:18.800 --> 01:24:23.560
closer to winning Sandra's confidence. It wasn't that Sandra was unfriendly,

1335
01:24:24.119 --> 01:24:27.680
but there was an air of reserve about her which

1336
01:24:27.800 --> 01:24:32.800
vanished only in her father's presence. Helen felt Stephen watching

1337
01:24:32.880 --> 01:24:37.119
her anxiously when Sandra was about and start to reassure him.

1338
01:24:38.039 --> 01:24:44.199
Her one thought was to preserve their happiness. Hello Helen, Hello, dear,

1339
01:24:45.079 --> 01:24:46.000
what happened to that phase?

1340
01:24:46.079 --> 01:24:47.720
Dear Sandra broke it?

1341
01:24:49.560 --> 01:24:51.560
No accidents will happen, Stephen.

1342
01:24:51.840 --> 01:24:53.840
This is the fourth piece he's broken in two weeks,

1343
01:24:54.279 --> 01:24:56.119
and each of them were pieces of treasured and had

1344
01:24:56.199 --> 01:24:56.720
for years.

1345
01:24:57.119 --> 01:25:00.560
Hens though Sandra deliberately broken those vases because they were yours.

1346
01:25:00.640 --> 01:25:02.560
Well, why is it the morning my things are broken?

1347
01:25:03.199 --> 01:25:05.319
Surely you don't believe she's deliberately breaking your things?

1348
01:25:05.359 --> 01:25:07.760
I don't want to believe. The first few times I

1349
01:25:07.800 --> 01:25:12.039
thought it was an accident. But no, oh, Priest, that's not.

1350
01:25:12.960 --> 01:25:15.399
Perhaps I'm wrong, I admit I have any proof. It's

1351
01:25:16.119 --> 01:25:18.039
it's just all the little things adding up.

1352
01:25:18.600 --> 01:25:19.800
Allen, what are you talking about?

1353
01:25:20.840 --> 01:25:22.960
Oh, you wouldn't understand even if I told you.

1354
01:25:25.159 --> 01:25:26.279
Sandra in a room.

1355
01:25:26.279 --> 01:25:26.800
I suppose.

1356
01:25:27.199 --> 01:25:29.199
Well I'll go up and see what she's doing. Now,

1357
01:25:29.439 --> 01:25:44.960
all right, Sandra, it's daddy. You in your room. M

1358
01:25:45.560 --> 01:25:51.159
it's funny, shouldn't hear? Well? What's this? Don't interested me?

1359
01:25:52.880 --> 01:25:56.119
Dear Daddy. I'm sorry about the broken vein. Tried my

1360
01:25:56.239 --> 01:25:58.279
best to be a good girl, but everything I do

1361
01:25:58.439 --> 01:26:04.520
seems wrong and make mother very unhappy. So I'm running away.

1362
01:26:05.399 --> 01:26:07.920
I love you very much and always worth your daughter, Sandra.

1363
01:26:16.439 --> 01:26:19.359
After searching vainly for an hour in the dark and cold,

1364
01:26:20.119 --> 01:26:24.520
Stephen returned and notified the police. All through the long

1365
01:26:24.600 --> 01:26:27.680
hours of the night, I and Helen said up, not

1366
01:26:27.880 --> 01:26:31.720
saying a word, each afraid to speak a fear of

1367
01:26:31.800 --> 01:26:35.680
what might be said. As the first rays of dawn showed,

1368
01:26:36.000 --> 01:26:40.800
the doorbell rang, Stephen rushed to answer it.

1369
01:26:42.079 --> 01:26:50.239
Mister Hamilton from the fifty fifth Street station. Mister Hamilton,

1370
01:26:50.479 --> 01:26:51.600
one of the officers on the force.

1371
01:26:51.760 --> 01:26:54.039
Just founder, thank you, thank you very much for bringing

1372
01:26:54.079 --> 01:26:54.399
her home.

1373
01:26:54.680 --> 01:26:56.800
Oh that's all right, mister Hamilton. This is a job.

1374
01:26:57.039 --> 01:27:02.560
Goodbye, goodbye. Head there, dear, don't cry, Oh.

1375
01:27:02.560 --> 01:27:05.640
Daddy, it was so dark out there, and I thought

1376
01:27:05.640 --> 01:27:07.000
I'd never see you again.

1377
01:27:07.479 --> 01:27:08.319
What the thing to say?

1378
01:27:08.479 --> 01:27:11.560
How do you feel so good? You want me to

1379
01:27:11.600 --> 01:27:18.199
take ste I'll do it, Hen, right, Stephen, just as

1380
01:27:18.239 --> 01:27:18.600
you say.

1381
01:27:30.239 --> 01:27:30.760
Is she all right?

1382
01:27:30.840 --> 01:27:31.199
Stephen?

1383
01:27:32.000 --> 01:27:35.880
You just tet asleep. I hope her being out all

1384
01:27:35.960 --> 01:27:38.359
night won't have any after Stephen.

1385
01:27:39.479 --> 01:27:41.479
You'll feel I'm to blame for her running away, don't you.

1386
01:27:42.079 --> 01:27:47.039
Of course not, Helen. It's just that well, you don't

1387
01:27:47.039 --> 01:27:48.720
seem to understand there, Stephen.

1388
01:27:48.760 --> 01:27:52.479
I've tried so hard. Oh, it's no use. She doesn't

1389
01:27:52.520 --> 01:27:54.039
walk me here, never has, Helen.

1390
01:27:54.079 --> 01:27:56.159
How can you talk like that? Why she was delighted

1391
01:27:56.199 --> 01:27:57.640
the day I brought you here as my wife.

1392
01:27:57.760 --> 01:28:00.479
Yes, I thought she was in the beginning, but now

1393
01:28:00.520 --> 01:28:03.720
I know she was just pretending, pretending. Yes, Stephen, from

1394
01:28:03.760 --> 01:28:06.119
the first moment she saw me, she resented me. She

1395
01:28:06.239 --> 01:28:08.760
feels I've come between you, taking her place and your affection.

1396
01:28:09.039 --> 01:28:10.319
Helen, happy you say such a thing?

1397
01:28:10.439 --> 01:28:12.399
True? I tell you she sees me as a.

1398
01:28:12.520 --> 01:28:14.880
Rival for your love. You're just imagining all I know.

1399
01:28:15.000 --> 01:28:15.439
I tell you.

1400
01:28:17.119 --> 01:28:17.800
It's no use.

1401
01:28:18.079 --> 01:28:20.119
We can't go on this way. What do you mean?

1402
01:28:20.880 --> 01:28:23.399
Don't you see we aren't happy anymore.

1403
01:28:24.399 --> 01:28:28.880
Instead of things improving to get worse, Perhaps it would

1404
01:28:28.920 --> 01:28:30.640
be best if we were to separate.

1405
01:28:30.359 --> 01:28:34.039
Helen, Helen, I won't hear of it. I love you, darling.

1406
01:28:35.119 --> 01:28:38.560
I wouldn't want to live without you. Whatever misunderstandings we

1407
01:28:38.640 --> 01:28:41.239
may have about Sandra, I'm sure it can straighten them out.

1408
01:28:41.359 --> 01:28:42.520
I don't know, Stephen.

1409
01:28:42.720 --> 01:28:45.000
If you love me, Helen, you won't give up so easily.

1410
01:28:46.279 --> 01:28:48.319
Please say you won't leave.

1411
01:28:49.800 --> 01:28:54.319
Oh right, Stephen, I won't leave. Perhaps we will be

1412
01:28:54.399 --> 01:28:55.359
able to work this out.

1413
01:28:56.439 --> 01:29:14.119
I hope so, Sandra. Sandra, you wait, darling. Yes, Daddy, Sandra,

1414
01:29:15.560 --> 01:29:17.399
Mother and I were very upset when you ran away

1415
01:29:17.439 --> 01:29:20.479
last night. Mother seems to think you ran away because

1416
01:29:20.520 --> 01:29:24.920
you you couldn't get along with her. She felt so

1417
01:29:25.039 --> 01:29:28.680
badly about it. She wanted to go away. She did, yes,

1418
01:29:30.159 --> 01:29:31.840
but I told her how much we both loved and

1419
01:29:31.960 --> 01:29:39.000
needed her. So she's promised to stay. Oh, I see, Sandra.

1420
01:29:40.159 --> 01:29:42.520
You will try to be a good girl and do

1421
01:29:42.600 --> 01:29:45.960
his mother wants, won't you? It would make Daddy very happy.

1422
01:29:46.239 --> 01:29:48.479
Oh, Daddy, I do anything to make you happy.

1423
01:29:48.600 --> 01:29:52.279
Anything that's a good girl, darling. Now you get up

1424
01:29:52.279 --> 01:29:54.359
and get dressed. I'll wait for you downstairs.

1425
01:29:54.439 --> 01:29:54.760
All right.

1426
01:29:54.920 --> 01:29:59.880
Daddy just doesn't understand he should have let her.

1427
01:30:00.319 --> 01:30:01.279
But she's still here.

1428
01:30:02.159 --> 01:30:03.279
She's going to stay.

1429
01:30:03.920 --> 01:30:04.560
I won't have it.

1430
01:30:05.239 --> 01:30:06.840
I won't have it. I hate her.

1431
01:30:13.439 --> 01:30:17.560
A week past, a week in which Sandra's behavior pleased

1432
01:30:17.640 --> 01:30:20.199
Helen know, and at last it seemed they were going

1433
01:30:20.239 --> 01:30:24.279
to be the happy families she had always dreamed they would.

1434
01:30:24.159 --> 01:30:28.720
Be, Helen. Yes, will you bring my coat with you

1435
01:30:28.760 --> 01:30:30.399
when you come downstairs? Sandra?

1436
01:30:30.439 --> 01:30:35.199
And not going for a walk, Daddy, can we walk

1437
01:30:35.239 --> 01:30:35.880
down to the river.

1438
01:30:36.079 --> 01:30:37.239
Oh, we won't have enough time for that.

1439
01:30:39.399 --> 01:30:41.239
I have your coat, but I have fun to scar.

1440
01:30:41.479 --> 01:30:43.359
Oh the scar's down here. Ellen, just bring the code.

1441
01:30:50.239 --> 01:30:54.720
H Helen, you all right? Don't speak to me, daddy.

1442
01:30:55.159 --> 01:30:56.760
Is she dead?

1443
01:30:57.239 --> 01:31:00.760
No, Sandra, don't talk like that. Quick phone, doctor Smith.

1444
01:31:00.800 --> 01:31:01.319
At once.

1445
01:31:09.039 --> 01:31:12.399
I arrived at the Hamilton home to find Helen suffering

1446
01:31:12.439 --> 01:31:17.840
from shock, but otherwise unhurt. I was somewhat disturbed, however,

1447
01:31:17.960 --> 01:31:20.760
to find her very nervous and run down.

1448
01:31:23.039 --> 01:31:24.279
She'll be all right, won't you? Doctor?

1449
01:31:24.600 --> 01:31:28.279
Yes, of course. I'm going to leave you a prescription,

1450
01:31:28.399 --> 01:31:31.840
missus Hamilton. It's something that will have quiet your nerves.

1451
01:31:32.439 --> 01:31:36.439
Are You're to take it twice a day. Eh, here's

1452
01:31:36.479 --> 01:31:38.880
the prescription, mister Hamilton. Thank you doctor.

1453
01:31:39.399 --> 01:31:42.520
I'll have it. Failed at once, Well, Sandra, how are you?

1454
01:31:42.760 --> 01:31:44.840
You've been so quiet? I hardly knew you were here.

1455
01:31:45.279 --> 01:31:46.279
I'm fine, Thank you.

1456
01:31:47.000 --> 01:31:49.640
You're growing up to be quite a young lady.

1457
01:31:50.600 --> 01:31:53.279
Are you still traveled by nightmares?

1458
01:31:53.760 --> 01:31:53.920
Yes?

1459
01:31:54.000 --> 01:31:55.840
She still has them once in a while. No, it's

1460
01:31:55.960 --> 01:31:59.640
just her nerves. If she continues to have them, you

1461
01:31:59.760 --> 01:32:01.640
might give us some of the medicine. I've prescribed for

1462
01:32:01.720 --> 01:32:02.159
your wife.

1463
01:32:03.279 --> 01:32:03.439
There.

1464
01:32:03.880 --> 01:32:07.800
I must be leaving good bye missus Hamilton, and stay

1465
01:32:07.840 --> 01:32:10.680
in bed a few days. I will doctor goodbye goodbye.

1466
01:32:10.760 --> 01:32:15.960
Like well, darling. It gave us quite a scare.

1467
01:32:16.880 --> 01:32:20.079
Yes, I I slipped on something on the top step.

1468
01:32:21.520 --> 01:32:24.000
I must have slipped on the marble, dear. I found

1469
01:32:24.039 --> 01:32:25.399
seven or eight of them on the top step.

1470
01:32:26.119 --> 01:32:31.640
Marble, Sondra, Were they your marbles? No, Mother, they belonged

1471
01:32:31.680 --> 01:32:34.119
to Margie. She must have left them on the stairs

1472
01:32:34.159 --> 01:32:35.119
when we were playing here.

1473
01:32:35.680 --> 01:32:38.800
Oh, I see it wasn't my fault, truly it was.

1474
01:32:39.000 --> 01:32:42.239
Of course it wasn't. Mother knows you wouldn't be marbles

1475
01:32:42.319 --> 01:32:47.000
lying around where she could slip on them, isn't that so, Ellen, Stephen.

1476
01:32:48.119 --> 01:33:01.399
I'm sure Sondra wouldn't want anything to happen to me. Sondra,

1477
01:33:01.800 --> 01:33:04.479
will you come into mother's room and mamma please? Yes, Mother,

1478
01:33:05.079 --> 01:33:07.119
the medicine that doctor Smith prescribed for me is in

1479
01:33:07.199 --> 01:33:09.399
the bathroom. Will you get it for me? Please? All right, mother,

1480
01:33:09.520 --> 01:33:11.319
you'll find it in the medicine chest. It's in a

1481
01:33:11.359 --> 01:33:11.960
blue bottle.

1482
01:33:12.199 --> 01:33:14.399
Yes, I know what it looks like. Oh, here it is.

1483
01:33:14.520 --> 01:33:17.239
That's fine, Solder, Just bring it to me. Here you are, mother,

1484
01:33:17.439 --> 01:33:20.840
Thank you. Dear, Oh Sondra, This isn't the medicine that

1485
01:33:20.920 --> 01:33:23.479
doctor Smith prescribed for me. Didn't you read the label?

1486
01:33:24.000 --> 01:33:25.199
This bottle has poison in it.

1487
01:33:25.560 --> 01:33:26.000
Poison?

1488
01:33:26.159 --> 01:33:28.600
Why, Yes, it's right here in red letters on the label.

1489
01:33:29.000 --> 01:33:31.800
I'm sorry, but this bottle is blue too. It looks

1490
01:33:31.880 --> 01:33:33.159
just like the one with your medicine.

1491
01:33:33.600 --> 01:33:36.159
Yes, it doesn't that. Now I'll put this bottle of

1492
01:33:36.199 --> 01:33:38.920
poison back and get me my medicine. Yes, mother, I'll

1493
01:33:38.960 --> 01:33:41.199
have to get rid of that poison. It's too dangerous

1494
01:33:41.199 --> 01:33:42.199
to keep in the medicine chest.

1495
01:33:42.399 --> 01:33:45.479
Would have been awful if you took the poison, wouldn't him, Mother, Well,

1496
01:33:45.560 --> 01:33:46.399
you might have died.

1497
01:33:55.159 --> 01:33:56.319
No way, go away.

1498
01:33:56.880 --> 01:33:58.640
I hate to hate you.

1499
01:33:59.199 --> 01:34:00.920
He's mine, you said, Heaven.

1500
01:34:04.399 --> 01:34:07.520
Wake up. You're heaving a nightmare.

1501
01:34:07.960 --> 01:34:11.039
Daddy, don't leave me, don't.

1502
01:34:13.600 --> 01:34:18.800
She's so frightened, Sling.

1503
01:34:19.039 --> 01:34:26.079
There's nothing to cry about now, I frighten, Pasey.

1504
01:34:26.159 --> 01:34:26.680
Don't leave me.

1505
01:34:27.960 --> 01:34:29.640
I'm not trying to leave you. I'm just trying to

1506
01:34:29.640 --> 01:34:30.600
see what mother wants.

1507
01:34:34.239 --> 01:34:38.439
What is it, Stephen? Doctor Smith said she had a nightmare.

1508
01:34:38.600 --> 01:34:40.680
Some of the medicine he prescribed for me would help her.

1509
01:34:41.479 --> 01:34:43.159
Sander doesn't like taking medicine.

1510
01:34:43.239 --> 01:34:45.359
But this medicine is very easy to take, and I'll

1511
01:34:45.399 --> 01:34:46.239
have her asleep.

1512
01:34:45.960 --> 01:34:47.600
In no time if you think it's best.

1513
01:34:47.800 --> 01:34:49.560
Yes, I'm sure it is. Now you go back to

1514
01:34:49.680 --> 01:34:51.560
Sonda while I get the medicine and a glass.

1515
01:34:57.159 --> 01:34:59.119
You must stop here crying. Daddy's here.

1516
01:34:59.640 --> 01:35:02.640
Don't Oh wait, daddy, I want you to stay with me.

1517
01:35:05.880 --> 01:35:07.880
What were you dreaming about dere No.

1518
01:35:08.039 --> 01:35:10.479
No, it was also fixed up.

1519
01:35:11.319 --> 01:35:14.520
Oh daddy, will you always love me more than anybody

1520
01:35:14.600 --> 01:35:15.399
else in the world?

1521
01:35:15.560 --> 01:35:16.039
Of course?

1522
01:35:17.000 --> 01:35:20.159
No, stop your cry, all right, I haven't Now I

1523
01:35:20.239 --> 01:35:21.359
can just have Sandra sit up.

1524
01:35:22.079 --> 01:35:24.439
Come on, that's it.

1525
01:35:26.439 --> 01:35:27.399
What's mother doing.

1526
01:35:27.840 --> 01:35:32.399
She's buying you some medicine. It'll help you sleep downing medicine. Yes,

1527
01:35:33.000 --> 01:35:35.319
it's the same medicine mother takes for her own nurs.

1528
01:35:35.239 --> 01:35:36.479
No, no, I don't want it.

1529
01:35:36.520 --> 01:35:38.720
Not please Sondra. It'll make it feel much better.

1530
01:35:39.039 --> 01:35:40.359
Don't come near me. I don't want it.

1531
01:35:41.239 --> 01:35:42.960
Takes it twice a day, there's nothing to no.

1532
01:35:43.199 --> 01:35:43.920
I won't take it.

1533
01:35:44.039 --> 01:35:44.720
I want.

1534
01:35:46.960 --> 01:35:51.560
None. She'll have us up all night. She doesn't take it. Now, Sandra,

1535
01:35:51.680 --> 01:35:53.760
stop being a baby and take this medicine.

1536
01:35:53.800 --> 01:35:55.439
No, Daddy, do let her make me take it.

1537
01:35:55.560 --> 01:35:58.760
Don't letter, sand Are you gonna let me give you

1538
01:35:58.840 --> 01:36:00.960
this cat? Or you have to make you take?

1539
01:36:01.119 --> 01:36:01.159
No?

1540
01:36:01.399 --> 01:36:04.439
No, it don't kill me, it will me old ja.

1541
01:36:04.439 --> 01:36:10.159
Head that said no, Sandra, stop cleansing your teeth, your path?

1542
01:36:10.319 --> 01:36:10.720
Do you hear?

1543
01:36:14.760 --> 01:36:14.960
Then?

1544
01:36:15.359 --> 01:36:18.039
Is taking its over? Nothing?

1545
01:36:19.319 --> 01:36:29.640
Hello? So you're what's wrong? Tell him called doctor Smith?

1546
01:36:29.640 --> 01:36:31.239
Tell him it's an emergency.

1547
01:36:32.760 --> 01:36:41.319
Stephen Us, Doctor Smith.

1548
01:36:42.439 --> 01:36:44.920
She's been unconscious for ten minutes. Now, doctor, you must

1549
01:36:44.960 --> 01:36:51.840
do something. I'm afraid it's too late, mister Hamilton, she's dead.

1550
01:36:51.960 --> 01:36:54.520
Oh no, she can't be.

1551
01:36:55.239 --> 01:37:00.279
I'm sorry, how can she be? We are the game.

1552
01:37:00.399 --> 01:37:04.359
The medicine you prescribed for Helen, Yes, sure it is, but.

1553
01:37:04.760 --> 01:37:07.039
This medicine wouldn't kill her. It's only a nerve tonic.

1554
01:37:07.159 --> 01:37:10.760
You can see, doctor, What is it?

1555
01:37:11.520 --> 01:37:14.039
Hey? This is the bottle? All right, But the medicine

1556
01:37:14.079 --> 01:37:16.359
in it isn't the medicine I prescribed. It is.

1557
01:37:16.800 --> 01:37:18.079
I took some of it last night.

1558
01:37:18.159 --> 01:37:21.159
I assure you. This isn't the medicine I prescribed. And

1559
01:37:21.279 --> 01:37:25.800
what isn't that bottle? It smells like carbolic acid? Carbolic acid?

1560
01:37:25.880 --> 01:37:26.800
That's impossible.

1561
01:37:27.199 --> 01:37:27.960
Look at the label.

1562
01:37:28.000 --> 01:37:29.319
You can see it's my medicine.

1563
01:37:29.359 --> 01:37:32.680
Yes, the label's right, but someone poured out the medicine

1564
01:37:32.680 --> 01:37:35.319
I prescribed and replaced it with carbonic acid.

1565
01:37:35.720 --> 01:37:38.680
But why, why should anyone want to do such a thing?

1566
01:37:39.359 --> 01:37:41.000
Who could possibly want to kill Sandra?

1567
01:37:41.920 --> 01:37:42.720
Everyone loved her?

1568
01:37:42.800 --> 01:37:48.560
Ask Helen, She'll tell you that, Sandra, Stephen.

1569
01:37:49.640 --> 01:37:52.800
Why are you looking at me like that? Sure you

1570
01:37:52.840 --> 01:37:55.439
don't believe I poisoned her? Stephen?

1571
01:37:56.479 --> 01:38:18.479
No, No, this is the Mysterious Traveler again. Have you

1572
01:38:18.720 --> 01:38:19.960
enjoyed our little trip?

1573
01:38:21.279 --> 01:38:24.399
By the way, do you have a child in your home?

1574
01:38:25.199 --> 01:38:28.039
If so, I do trust it isn't angry with you.

1575
01:38:29.000 --> 01:38:33.159
You can't be too careful with children. I recall another

1576
01:38:33.319 --> 01:38:37.199
child who, after being punished by his parents, took a razor.

1577
01:38:37.319 --> 01:38:41.560
And oh, you're getting off at the next stop. I'm sorry.

1578
01:38:42.600 --> 01:38:46.520
Perhaps you'll join me again soon. I take this same

1579
01:38:46.720 --> 01:38:57.680
train every week at the same time. You've just heard

1580
01:38:57.800 --> 01:39:02.000
chapter thirteen of The Mysterious, a series of dramas of

1581
01:39:02.079 --> 01:39:04.960
the strange and unusual, brought to you each week by

1582
01:39:05.039 --> 01:39:09.399
Station w o R. In tonight's program, The Good Die Young,

1583
01:39:09.960 --> 01:39:14.279
Betty Jane Tyler played Sondra The Mysterious Traveler, written by

1584
01:39:14.399 --> 01:39:17.840
Bob Arthur and David Cogan. Is directed by Jack McGregor.

1585
01:39:18.359 --> 01:39:20.319
Original music was played by Doc Whipple.

1586
01:39:32.479 --> 01:39:38.880
I do apologize. I wasn't really planning on feeling so nostalgic,

1587
01:39:39.079 --> 01:39:44.000
but I am an old fool, and I suppose that's

1588
01:39:44.119 --> 01:39:46.119
my right. Oh what's that?

1589
01:39:46.840 --> 01:39:47.039
Well?

1590
01:39:48.399 --> 01:39:53.239
I can't say exactly how I wish that I could.

1591
01:39:53.319 --> 01:39:58.640
I'm not being coy or hm cryptic. No, no, no,

1592
01:40:00.279 --> 01:40:02.720
don't have the information to share with you, my dear.

1593
01:40:04.960 --> 01:40:10.359
As time goes on, I realize so many things, so

1594
01:40:10.560 --> 01:40:15.520
many things that make me happy and make me sad.

1595
01:40:17.239 --> 01:40:23.560
But most of all, I've realized that men call me mad.

1596
01:40:31.000 --> 01:40:55.199
Dog fantasy, men call me mad Doctor West. Please close

1597
01:40:55.239 --> 01:40:59.880
the door suddenly, doctor Tagoon. Now, gentlemen, I have summoned you,

1598
01:41:00.239 --> 01:41:03.159
my two trusted and loyal friends, to divulge a secret

1599
01:41:03.239 --> 01:41:05.960
that even I myself can hardly comprehend. You made a

1600
01:41:06.079 --> 01:41:13.199
new discovery, Charles discovery. Yes, I have found another world.

1601
01:41:13.600 --> 01:41:18.960
What another world? You say? Exactly? Would you please snap

1602
01:41:19.039 --> 01:41:20.560
off the lights? Docture? Now that switched? There?

1603
01:41:20.720 --> 01:41:20.920
Yeah?

1604
01:41:21.159 --> 01:41:21.640
Certainly.

1605
01:41:23.560 --> 01:41:27.039
Now, by means of this special projection machine, I'm going

1606
01:41:27.119 --> 01:41:29.399
to show you something which will astound you beyond words.

1607
01:41:30.359 --> 01:41:32.920
I must ask you to remain perfectly still throughout this demonstration.

1608
01:41:33.720 --> 01:41:35.640
As the picture I'm about to show you progresses, I

1609
01:41:35.680 --> 01:41:38.720
will explain in detail just what I have done, first

1610
01:41:38.720 --> 01:41:43.680
of all, to start the machine. Now observe this picture

1611
01:41:43.720 --> 01:41:46.800
I have taken on color film a picture of the

1612
01:41:46.920 --> 01:41:51.159
new moon. Now you will notice that the camera has

1613
01:41:51.199 --> 01:41:54.439
picked up a single ray of the moon. It's focused

1614
01:41:54.479 --> 01:42:00.520
upon the wall whereon dances a single tiny moonbeam. The

1615
01:42:00.600 --> 01:42:10.399
camera approaches the moonbeam closer, closer, still closer, and then

1616
01:42:10.560 --> 01:42:13.840
the special film in my camera reaches the lens. The

1617
01:42:13.960 --> 01:42:19.640
scene changes, Doctor Smith, a gentleman, gentleman, please, are.

1618
01:42:19.560 --> 01:42:25.920
You see here my other world? My world within a moonbeam, taken.

1619
01:42:25.720 --> 01:42:29.319
Upon special color film of my own invention, film that

1620
01:42:29.439 --> 01:42:32.560
is constructed to pick up objects within the very atoms,

1621
01:42:33.359 --> 01:42:37.600
objects smaller, that is, than atom themselves. And notice, please,

1622
01:42:37.680 --> 01:42:41.039
the coloring of this outer world within a moonbeam. See

1623
01:42:41.079 --> 01:42:45.399
the hills, the plains with a red grass, their red

1624
01:42:45.479 --> 01:42:50.880
leaved trees. Notice that tiny stream at the left a

1625
01:42:51.079 --> 01:42:52.000
vivid orange.

1626
01:42:53.800 --> 01:42:57.000
Notice the yellow of the tree trunks, the orange colored sky,

1627
01:42:57.159 --> 01:43:00.479
and the deep blue sun creasing the film quickly.

1628
01:43:00.520 --> 01:43:02.800
Now, but first, a rare sight is in store foril.

1629
01:43:03.359 --> 01:43:09.359
How much closely there a man? But what sort of

1630
01:43:09.640 --> 01:43:13.279
creature is that? He's writing? I don't know. You will

1631
01:43:13.359 --> 01:43:17.000
notice the animal approaches the small stream, wades quickly through it,

1632
01:43:17.880 --> 01:43:21.640
and vanishes from the camera's sight. As he vanishes into

1633
01:43:21.680 --> 01:43:29.119
the distance, the film ends amazing, stounding, unbelievable. Are the

1634
01:43:29.199 --> 01:43:32.159
lights of your please? Doctor? Oh? Yes, of course, look here, titoo.

1635
01:43:33.039 --> 01:43:37.479
Is this a camera trick? Absolutely not. I have shown

1636
01:43:37.520 --> 01:43:41.520
you what actually exists within certain or possibly all moonbeams.

1637
01:43:41.680 --> 01:43:45.359
What you are theory a that all creation consists of

1638
01:43:45.520 --> 01:43:49.279
worlds within worlds. Who can say that our world is

1639
01:43:49.359 --> 01:43:53.159
not contained within some still larger one, and that within another,

1640
01:43:53.600 --> 01:43:56.319
and that still within another, and so on, though suddenly

1641
01:43:56.439 --> 01:44:01.880
becomes overwhelmed me. Yes, doesn't it to think that all

1642
01:44:02.039 --> 01:44:06.640
around us, within even such tiny substances as the atoms

1643
01:44:06.680 --> 01:44:14.239
themselves under our feet overhead on all sides, are worlds

1644
01:44:14.319 --> 01:44:17.159
of which we are unaware? Yes, if only there were

1645
01:44:17.279 --> 01:44:20.920
some way to visit those other worlds. Ah, doctor West,

1646
01:44:21.960 --> 01:44:26.640
that is the point we can good heavens man, you

1647
01:44:26.760 --> 01:44:32.520
mean he's just what do you mean, gentlemen? I plan

1648
01:44:32.680 --> 01:44:35.760
to enter that world in the morning. Impossible.

1649
01:44:35.960 --> 01:44:38.800
I don't like to say so, Charles, But aren't you

1650
01:44:38.920 --> 01:44:44.079
overlooking the laws of dimension, the general medium laws of nature?

1651
01:44:44.159 --> 01:44:46.359
There is obvious that, turhume.

1652
01:44:46.479 --> 01:44:50.600
But aren't you appearing a little ridiculous on the face

1653
01:44:50.640 --> 01:44:53.119
of things. I do not expect you to be convinced

1654
01:44:53.199 --> 01:44:54.359
until you have seen we.

1655
01:44:54.479 --> 01:44:57.279
In our opervation, are not inclined to take such things

1656
01:44:57.399 --> 01:44:59.319
as we are speaking of for granted.

1657
01:44:59.399 --> 01:45:02.760
And let's not waste words, my friends, I propose to

1658
01:45:02.880 --> 01:45:07.079
convince you beyond all possible doubt. Well, I have no

1659
01:45:07.239 --> 01:45:11.119
objection to being convinced, nor right, No, I really believe

1660
01:45:11.199 --> 01:45:12.880
to heal is lady's imagination.

1661
01:45:13.359 --> 01:45:14.680
Winding up ahead, we.

1662
01:45:14.680 --> 01:45:18.359
Shall see, I hear, gentlemen, on this table, you see

1663
01:45:18.399 --> 01:45:22.000
what looks like an Eskimaux igloo made of crystal clear glass,

1664
01:45:22.039 --> 01:45:24.560
with an opening at one side of the base, much

1665
01:45:24.680 --> 01:45:26.159
like an entrance to an igloo or tent.

1666
01:45:26.520 --> 01:45:30.840
Yes, it's about ten inches high and about eight inches

1667
01:45:30.920 --> 01:45:31.560
in diameter.

1668
01:45:32.119 --> 01:45:34.520
Now, when we extinguish the lights here in this room,

1669
01:45:35.399 --> 01:45:37.479
when that curtain is drawn from the window over there,

1670
01:45:38.359 --> 01:45:41.239
the moonbeam and question will be centered directly through that

1671
01:45:41.319 --> 01:45:43.880
little glass case. You want us to assist you exactly?

1672
01:45:44.000 --> 01:45:45.159
But what do you intend to do?

1673
01:45:45.600 --> 01:45:47.960
I have here a number of small capsules filled with

1674
01:45:48.000 --> 01:45:50.960
a potion whose base consists mostly of radium. What is

1675
01:45:51.159 --> 01:45:55.439
this preparation? A substance which will cause animal matter to

1676
01:45:55.560 --> 01:45:58.279
decrease itself many billions of times?

1677
01:45:58.359 --> 01:46:02.039
In other words, you think it will make you become small, precisely,

1678
01:46:02.159 --> 01:46:06.920
but small enough to enter the realm of a single atom?

1679
01:46:07.760 --> 01:46:08.319
I hope so.

1680
01:46:08.560 --> 01:46:08.720
Well?

1681
01:46:09.439 --> 01:46:12.000
Have you tried this concoction only on animals?

1682
01:46:12.399 --> 01:46:16.359
First, on rabbits and rats, And just yesterday I sent

1683
01:46:16.439 --> 01:46:19.560
a dog into the world of atoms? But granting such

1684
01:46:19.760 --> 01:46:22.640
a feat is possible. Don't you think your clothes would

1685
01:46:22.680 --> 01:46:25.039
also shrink with you? But I have found that any

1686
01:46:25.119 --> 01:46:27.840
object in contact with the animal matter at the time

1687
01:46:27.920 --> 01:46:30.560
the capsule is consumed would be caused to shrink in

1688
01:46:30.600 --> 01:46:33.640
proportion with the animal matter itself. I found that out

1689
01:46:33.720 --> 01:46:36.039
yesterday when I failed to remove the dog's color. Well,

1690
01:46:36.119 --> 01:46:38.880
suppose you consume too great a quantity of the potion.

1691
01:46:39.119 --> 01:46:42.359
I have an equalizer, another mixture which will counteract the

1692
01:46:42.399 --> 01:46:45.760
first capsule. By taking particular amounts of it, I can

1693
01:46:45.800 --> 01:46:48.640
stop the reaction of the capsule, And then, having stopped it,

1694
01:46:48.760 --> 01:46:52.319
by taking another dose of the stabilizer or equalizer. I

1695
01:46:52.399 --> 01:46:57.000
can increase my size again. This is all very extraordinary.

1696
01:46:57.640 --> 01:47:01.079
I tind to be gone quite some time. I'm asking

1697
01:47:01.159 --> 01:47:03.239
you too to watch over this little glass case for

1698
01:47:03.319 --> 01:47:04.920
a four day period. You can count on me.

1699
01:47:05.479 --> 01:47:05.680
On me.

1700
01:47:07.560 --> 01:47:11.079
Now, I shall take a capsule. I'll begin to grow

1701
01:47:11.159 --> 01:47:15.520
almost immediately. I've reached about two feet in height. I

1702
01:47:15.640 --> 01:47:18.000
want you, doctor Smith, to bend down to the floor

1703
01:47:18.680 --> 01:47:21.600
and pick me up and place me on this table

1704
01:47:21.680 --> 01:47:25.479
here inside this little glass case, putting me directly in

1705
01:47:25.560 --> 01:47:27.560
front of the opening or door of the case. Is

1706
01:47:27.600 --> 01:47:33.319
that clear? Client? Yeah? Good, gentlemen, my hand, good luck?

1707
01:47:33.359 --> 01:47:35.560
Tell me Smith will follow.

1708
01:47:35.600 --> 01:47:37.000
You are struggling the camp.

1709
01:47:38.319 --> 01:47:43.560
Good. I knew I could count on YouTube. Now the capsule.

1710
01:47:51.079 --> 01:48:01.239
My head is worrying, my ears a ring. I growing dim.

1711
01:48:04.199 --> 01:48:06.880
I have a sensation of emptiness in the pit of

1712
01:48:06.960 --> 01:48:12.239
my stomach. You notice, and it changed my appearance. Good hands,

1713
01:48:13.560 --> 01:48:16.000
he's lost a foot in height.

1714
01:48:16.079 --> 01:48:19.720
While you're growing smaller to you, you are man, You're

1715
01:48:19.760 --> 01:48:21.119
actually growing smaller.

1716
01:48:21.279 --> 01:48:26.039
He's two feet small. Allow. I hope I regained my

1717
01:48:26.159 --> 01:48:31.479
eyesight before I become too small. Are my close diminishing too? Yes? Yes, quick,

1718
01:48:33.159 --> 01:48:39.600
I cannot describe my sensations. I feel a strange weakness.

1719
01:48:41.359 --> 01:48:46.000
My senses seem to be deserting me. I find it

1720
01:48:46.760 --> 01:48:48.279
rather difficult to talk.

1721
01:48:48.520 --> 01:48:52.239
Look, he's just about two feet high now too, As.

1722
01:48:52.159 --> 01:48:54.840
He told you, doctor, pick him up, now place him

1723
01:48:54.880 --> 01:49:00.479
on the table. Yes, you're so careful. Now there, Yes,

1724
01:49:01.159 --> 01:49:03.079
putting closer to that door, so you'll have no trouble

1725
01:49:03.119 --> 01:49:06.159
finding it. What your arm, doctor, don't cut off the

1726
01:49:06.319 --> 01:49:09.359
moonbeam there, that's good.

1727
01:49:09.720 --> 01:49:12.119
Say he's only about six inches high. Now there he

1728
01:49:12.199 --> 01:49:19.520
goes into the glass case. See the moonbeam is completely

1729
01:49:19.680 --> 01:49:20.279
covering in me.

1730
01:49:21.399 --> 01:49:23.800
He's so tiny now you can hardly see him, the

1731
01:49:23.880 --> 01:49:26.399
size of a small ant.

1732
01:49:26.720 --> 01:49:30.439
He's faded into the light of the beam. Now, I

1733
01:49:30.600 --> 01:49:32.720
wonder what you'll discover in there.

1734
01:49:33.520 --> 01:49:47.800
I wonder what you'll discover at last. I'm here in

1735
01:49:47.920 --> 01:49:54.199
another world, such a strange place, similar to the place

1736
01:49:54.279 --> 01:50:00.560
I came from. Yet different trees, yet with leaves brilliant

1737
01:50:00.640 --> 01:50:08.279
scarlet and yellow bark, the grass also scarlet. Orange colored

1738
01:50:08.359 --> 01:50:14.800
sky overhead, the sun of dazzling blue, and the water

1739
01:50:14.880 --> 01:50:20.199
in the little stream over there not blue but orange. Yes,

1740
01:50:21.279 --> 01:50:27.079
the colors all different, everything else correspondingly the same.

1741
01:50:27.399 --> 01:50:29.039
Why do you speak so strangely.

1742
01:50:29.239 --> 01:50:32.560
Oh, I beg your pardon. I thought I was alone.

1743
01:50:33.000 --> 01:50:36.119
You must be a foreigner, otherwise you'd know you're in

1744
01:50:36.199 --> 01:50:38.520
the King's gardens, and they are quite private.

1745
01:50:39.159 --> 01:50:42.600
I'm so sorry. Yes, I am a foreigner. If you'll

1746
01:50:42.640 --> 01:50:44.039
forgive me, i'll leave it once I know.

1747
01:50:44.520 --> 01:50:47.920
Please, it is our custom to treat foreigners in a

1748
01:50:48.000 --> 01:50:51.000
friendly manner, and so I bid you welcome.

1749
01:50:52.279 --> 01:50:53.359
I am the Princess.

1750
01:50:53.159 --> 01:51:01.960
Elena, Princess, yes, daughter of Kinglandelier. Sure you heard of me, No.

1751
01:51:02.119 --> 01:51:05.960
Princess, I have not, But surely my father rules the

1752
01:51:06.039 --> 01:51:10.199
world with kindness and justice, and everyone knows him for

1753
01:51:10.319 --> 01:51:10.920
his goodness.

1754
01:51:11.439 --> 01:51:15.600
Princess, will it frighten you if I tell you something

1755
01:51:17.159 --> 01:51:18.520
something most strange?

1756
01:51:18.960 --> 01:51:23.079
I think not, sir by you yourself are most strange.

1757
01:51:24.159 --> 01:51:29.600
Your clothing, the colors not in the least ordinary, and

1758
01:51:29.800 --> 01:51:31.359
your features are so different.

1759
01:51:32.039 --> 01:51:36.800
Princess Elena, my name is Charles de Hume. I'm a

1760
01:51:36.880 --> 01:51:40.640
citizen of the United States of America America.

1761
01:51:42.119 --> 01:51:45.039
I know the world quite well, but never have I

1762
01:51:45.159 --> 01:51:46.119
heard of America.

1763
01:51:46.840 --> 01:51:49.119
That is why I feel I might frighten you, your highness.

1764
01:51:50.399 --> 01:51:57.199
You see, America is not in this world. It is

1765
01:51:57.920 --> 01:52:03.000
in another. You're from another world exactly, you see, I

1766
01:52:03.119 --> 01:52:06.560
am a scientist in my own universe. I discovered your

1767
01:52:06.680 --> 01:52:09.439
world here, so I found a way to come to

1768
01:52:09.520 --> 01:52:14.039
visit you. You don't seemed all surprised.

1769
01:52:14.399 --> 01:52:18.520
No, why should I be surprised. We've expected you for

1770
01:52:18.600 --> 01:52:19.239
a long time.

1771
01:52:20.039 --> 01:52:24.439
Me. Well, not you exactly, but someone.

1772
01:52:24.960 --> 01:52:26.479
But what do you mean?

1773
01:52:27.239 --> 01:52:30.319
Our scientists have known for many years that other worlds

1774
01:52:30.439 --> 01:52:34.520
besides ours exists, but they've never been able to discover

1775
01:52:34.640 --> 01:52:37.880
a method of entering one of them. We've been hoping

1776
01:52:38.039 --> 01:52:40.199
someone from beyond would find.

1777
01:52:40.000 --> 01:52:40.560
A way here.

1778
01:52:41.479 --> 01:52:42.079
Amazing.

1779
01:52:42.840 --> 01:52:44.920
That is why I asked if you were a foreigner.

1780
01:52:46.079 --> 01:52:50.319
Since my father rules the entire world, naturally a foreigner

1781
01:52:50.399 --> 01:52:52.319
could only be from another world.

1782
01:52:52.560 --> 01:52:56.560
This absolutely as times me, Princess. I must speak to

1783
01:52:56.600 --> 01:52:59.359
your scientists, And this is so wonderful that people of

1784
01:52:59.439 --> 01:53:02.279
our worlds be much alike, save in a few minor respects.

1785
01:53:02.359 --> 01:53:03.800
We look alike, talk alike.

1786
01:53:03.960 --> 01:53:06.159
We've often wondered how much we would be like the

1787
01:53:06.239 --> 01:53:07.159
people from beyond.

1788
01:53:07.279 --> 01:53:09.600
Take me to your scientist, Princess, I must see them.

1789
01:53:09.840 --> 01:53:13.880
I'll gladly take you to them, but first I must

1790
01:53:13.960 --> 01:53:17.000
warn you you are in great danger.

1791
01:53:17.680 --> 01:53:20.159
Danger our world is doomed.

1792
01:53:21.439 --> 01:53:24.960
We are falling victims to a strange malady which none

1793
01:53:25.000 --> 01:53:28.560
of our doctors or learned men can overcome. It is

1794
01:53:28.640 --> 01:53:32.920
slaying our people, but the thousands A plague, Yes, a

1795
01:53:33.039 --> 01:53:37.159
mysterious disease, one we've never encountered before in all history.

1796
01:53:38.119 --> 01:53:41.479
You would save yourself, use whatever method you have, and

1797
01:53:42.159 --> 01:53:44.720
return to your own world before it's too late.

1798
01:53:44.920 --> 01:53:48.319
One woman, princess, will you take me to your father?

1799
01:53:48.840 --> 01:53:51.039
I I don't know why I say this, but perhaps

1800
01:53:51.119 --> 01:53:53.920
I can help. Oh no, no, save yourself.

1801
01:53:54.720 --> 01:53:57.560
I beg of you. Do not remain here to pass.

1802
01:53:57.760 --> 01:54:01.079
Please, Princess, at least allow me to try to help you.

1803
01:54:01.199 --> 01:54:03.159
Lead a very brave or very fool.

1804
01:54:03.039 --> 01:54:05.159
Glaborn foolish take me to your father.

1805
01:54:05.680 --> 01:54:09.000
Very well that he will only warn you as I

1806
01:54:09.119 --> 01:54:09.600
have done.

1807
01:54:22.640 --> 01:54:25.199
That, Your Majesty, is how I found your world and

1808
01:54:25.239 --> 01:54:28.680
the way to matter it. It's interesting. At one time

1809
01:54:28.760 --> 01:54:32.239
I would have said amazing, But with our discoveries where

1810
01:54:32.279 --> 01:54:35.359
the world's around us, it's now only interesting.

1811
01:54:35.520 --> 01:54:37.760
I've warned doctor to Human to return to his own

1812
01:54:37.880 --> 01:54:39.880
universe before he falls victim to the plague.

1813
01:54:40.000 --> 01:54:42.600
Yes, miss, but I would like to help. I'm a

1814
01:54:42.680 --> 01:54:45.119
doctor where I came from. Perhaps I could do something.

1815
01:54:45.640 --> 01:54:49.920
I'm very useless. Our most brilliant physicians are powers to

1816
01:54:50.000 --> 01:54:53.520
even make a diagnosis, much less a cure. But I

1817
01:54:53.720 --> 01:54:56.239
have a knowledge from another world, your majesty.

1818
01:54:55.920 --> 01:54:58.920
That's true, Father, he found a way of reaching us.

1819
01:55:00.039 --> 01:55:01.760
You have been unable to reach the other places.

1820
01:55:02.680 --> 01:55:06.840
Yes, yes, daughter, your reason wisely, Please, your majesty, permit

1821
01:55:06.920 --> 01:55:09.600
me to see some of the victims. I can't return

1822
01:55:09.640 --> 01:55:11.720
home until I've at least made an attempt to help you,

1823
01:55:12.359 --> 01:55:17.119
very well as you wish. Come with me. My son

1824
01:55:17.319 --> 01:55:20.319
lies dying in a room above. I will permit you

1825
01:55:20.399 --> 01:55:36.039
to examine him. Well, don't you tell you, your majesty,

1826
01:55:37.000 --> 01:55:40.399
heavens man, this is typhoid. Typhoid, we have it on

1827
01:55:40.520 --> 01:55:43.640
our earth. Tell us do you know the cure? Yes,

1828
01:55:43.720 --> 01:55:46.439
your majesty, I do. Take me to your nearest medical laboratory.

1829
01:55:46.560 --> 01:55:49.119
We must prepare a serum, huge quantities of it. We

1830
01:55:49.239 --> 01:55:51.159
must send it to all parts of the world immediately.

1831
01:55:51.319 --> 01:56:05.880
With a savior people, daughter, these reports more parts of

1832
01:56:05.960 --> 01:56:06.479
the universe.

1833
01:56:07.159 --> 01:56:09.479
The death grow fewer and fewer each day.

1834
01:56:09.560 --> 01:56:13.279
It's a miracle, Father, and Charles has unit saved us all.

1835
01:56:18.600 --> 01:56:21.800
There's been no typhoid death. Now for three days, I know.

1836
01:56:23.680 --> 01:56:24.600
A fight has been one.

1837
01:56:25.079 --> 01:56:28.600
The people are clamoring for your doctor. Humans. They almost

1838
01:56:28.680 --> 01:56:29.560
consider you a god.

1839
01:56:30.680 --> 01:56:34.319
I am no god, Princess, merely a man with a

1840
01:56:34.399 --> 01:56:35.119
little knowledge.

1841
01:56:35.439 --> 01:56:38.000
But you came to us like a miracle man in

1842
01:56:38.119 --> 01:56:40.439
time to work the greatest wonder of all history.

1843
01:56:40.960 --> 01:56:43.399
I'm happy that my journey here has been for a purpose.

1844
01:56:44.000 --> 01:56:46.600
Anything you ever wish in the world will be yours.

1845
01:56:47.279 --> 01:56:53.159
I know, Elena, there is so little I want, yet

1846
01:56:53.960 --> 01:56:54.439
so much.

1847
01:56:55.319 --> 01:56:57.720
Will you remain here with us forever?

1848
01:56:59.319 --> 01:56:59.760
I cannot.

1849
01:57:00.720 --> 01:57:02.279
You called me Elena a moment ago.

1850
01:57:03.119 --> 01:57:06.159
I cannot, Elena. I must return to tell my people

1851
01:57:06.199 --> 01:57:09.800
what I discovered. But if you go now, yes, Elena.

1852
01:57:10.199 --> 01:57:11.039
Oh I must.

1853
01:57:11.079 --> 01:57:12.880
We always be governed by rules.

1854
01:57:12.640 --> 01:57:17.399
Of propriety, Elena. If if you're thinking what I hope

1855
01:57:17.439 --> 01:57:22.399
you are, child, Helena, my darling, Is it wrong to

1856
01:57:22.439 --> 01:57:24.039
say I love you? Child?

1857
01:57:25.079 --> 01:57:28.520
Is it wrong for stars to shine or for flowers

1858
01:57:28.560 --> 01:57:29.039
to bloom?

1859
01:57:29.720 --> 01:57:35.239
Oh, my darling, Princess, I love you, Elena, and I

1860
01:57:35.359 --> 01:57:35.640
love you.

1861
01:57:37.159 --> 01:57:39.960
Please don't believe me, my darling.

1862
01:57:41.159 --> 01:57:44.399
Just for a little while, I will return to Elena,

1863
01:57:45.560 --> 01:57:46.479
I promise.

1864
01:57:46.680 --> 01:57:50.359
And I will wait for you, beloved, and when you return,

1865
01:57:51.439 --> 01:57:54.159
nothing in this world or any other will ever take

1866
01:57:54.279 --> 01:57:54.760
us apart.

1867
01:58:07.680 --> 01:58:12.000
It's passed his time almost four days. Look the moment

1868
01:58:12.079 --> 01:58:16.600
there in the moon means see no, I yes, look

1869
01:58:17.359 --> 01:58:20.800
he is coming back. See there he's out of the

1870
01:58:20.840 --> 01:58:24.079
glass case on the tabletop. He's growing rapidly wet. You

1871
01:58:24.199 --> 01:58:27.560
better place him down on the floor. Look merger and larger.

1872
01:58:27.720 --> 01:58:29.199
This is perfectly astounding.

1873
01:58:29.319 --> 01:58:29.520
Man.

1874
01:58:30.239 --> 01:58:34.640
I wonder what his adventure has been, Doctor Turhune, can

1875
01:58:34.720 --> 01:58:37.399
you hear me? Doctor Turyune is almost four feet tall?

1876
01:58:37.520 --> 01:58:38.880
Now, can you hear me?

1877
01:58:39.159 --> 01:58:42.079
Dtor water water please?

1878
01:58:42.159 --> 01:58:42.399
Water?

1879
01:58:42.520 --> 01:58:45.159
Weikly wrist quickly over there in that corplet.

1880
01:58:45.279 --> 01:58:46.039
Yes, just one moment.

1881
01:58:48.680 --> 01:58:49.119
Here we are.

1882
01:58:49.359 --> 01:58:53.560
He's all right now full size again here tur Yun

1883
01:58:54.199 --> 01:58:54.560
drink this?

1884
01:58:55.359 --> 01:59:02.479
Yes, thanks, that's better. Are you all right? Tell you

1885
01:59:02.760 --> 01:59:07.199
it's quite all I think you, gentlemen. I have had

1886
01:59:07.239 --> 01:59:11.199
the strangest experience imaginable. I have visited a.

1887
01:59:11.279 --> 01:59:14.640
World that's amazing and wonderful.

1888
01:59:14.720 --> 01:59:17.920
Tell us about it as I will. When I became

1889
01:59:18.000 --> 01:59:21.119
small enough to enter the moonbeam, I found myself in

1890
01:59:21.199 --> 01:59:23.279
the exact spot you two saw in the picture I

1891
01:59:23.359 --> 01:59:25.800
displayed for you. I did not know which way to

1892
01:59:25.840 --> 01:59:35.520
go naturally after a moment I heard someone, my friends,

1893
01:59:35.640 --> 01:59:37.760
is precisely what happened to me. And you say, those

1894
01:59:37.880 --> 01:59:41.479
people knew all about the existence of other worlds, but

1895
01:59:42.000 --> 01:59:45.760
were not familiar with such a disease as typhoid exactly.

1896
01:59:45.720 --> 01:59:48.840
Must have been somewhat of a hero, do you, Yes, somewhat.

1897
01:59:49.000 --> 01:59:51.279
You know, if I hadn't seen this demonstration with my

1898
01:59:51.359 --> 01:59:53.039
own eyes, I never have believed it.

1899
01:59:53.520 --> 01:59:56.399
Well, Doctor West, even though I was the one who

1900
01:59:56.520 --> 02:00:00.359
experienced it, I'm still wondering if it actually happened. Appened

1901
02:00:00.399 --> 02:00:00.840
all right?

1902
02:00:01.159 --> 02:00:03.880
Yes, we saw you grow small right before her eyes,

1903
02:00:04.640 --> 02:00:09.039
so small you became almost invisible and disappeared in the moonbean.

1904
02:00:09.439 --> 02:00:11.520
I trust you, too, will confer many statements I like

1905
02:00:11.600 --> 02:00:14.439
make to the public about this. No, absolutely certainly tell you.

1906
02:00:14.680 --> 02:00:18.399
By the way, it's my sister here during my absence. Why, yes,

1907
02:00:18.560 --> 02:00:23.079
she was. She acted very strangely too, but we told

1908
02:00:23.079 --> 02:00:26.800
her nothing. Oh, gentlemen, perhaps I should have told you

1909
02:00:26.880 --> 02:00:30.399
this before. You see, my sister and I jointly own

1910
02:00:30.479 --> 02:00:32.920
several hundred acres of valuable oil land in the South.

1911
02:00:33.720 --> 02:00:37.039
She's a greedy woman. She's tried for years to obtain

1912
02:00:37.119 --> 02:00:40.279
full possession of the property. She's tried many ways, but

1913
02:00:41.159 --> 02:00:44.600
her latest method is by charging that I'm insane. Oh

1914
02:00:44.800 --> 02:00:49.600
less ridiculous, Yes, exactly, but she has preferred the charges. Tomorrow,

1915
02:00:49.680 --> 02:00:53.960
at nine, I must appear before a group of alienists

1916
02:00:54.640 --> 02:00:59.479
who will decide whether or not I'm mentally unbalanced. That

1917
02:00:59.800 --> 02:01:03.000
is why I had to make my experiment before tomorrow.

1918
02:01:19.199 --> 02:01:23.560
Doctor Turtune, You've been carefully examined by this impartial and

1919
02:01:23.800 --> 02:01:29.039
experienced board of alienists at the request of your sister. Yeah,

1920
02:01:29.279 --> 02:01:32.039
it's our decision that you must submit yourself to a

1921
02:01:32.159 --> 02:01:36.359
series of treatments at whatever sanitarium your sister might choose.

1922
02:01:36.479 --> 02:01:40.239
Oh no, stop, this has all been so irregular, so unfair.

1923
02:01:41.039 --> 02:01:41.800
You'll think I'm mad.

1924
02:01:42.720 --> 02:01:43.680
I was told. I have told you.

1925
02:01:43.720 --> 02:01:45.479
It's true. I can prove everything I've said.

1926
02:01:45.600 --> 02:01:46.720
Please, doctor Turtue.

1927
02:01:46.800 --> 02:01:49.479
My two friends, doctor West and doctor Smith. Ask them,

1928
02:01:49.960 --> 02:01:52.319
why haven't you let them testify for me? They saw it.

1929
02:01:52.800 --> 02:01:54.079
They'll tell you everything I've.

1930
02:01:53.920 --> 02:01:54.560
Said is true.

1931
02:01:56.439 --> 02:02:04.840
One moment, yes, oh, yes, he's here with me now

1932
02:02:07.880 --> 02:02:08.560
I see.

1933
02:02:10.279 --> 02:02:17.800
Hmm, yes, all right, out on him. I'm sorry, doctor Turru,

1934
02:02:17.880 --> 02:02:22.159
and I'm afraid I have bad news for you. Doctors

1935
02:02:22.199 --> 02:02:24.720
West and Smith were to have testified in your behalf.

1936
02:02:26.439 --> 02:02:28.840
But I've just received where that they were both killed

1937
02:02:28.840 --> 02:02:43.399
a few moments ago in an automobile accident, and that

1938
02:02:43.640 --> 02:02:44.239
was the verdict.

1939
02:02:46.920 --> 02:02:51.760
Now men call me man, So they've blocked me. Shouldn't

1940
02:02:51.840 --> 02:02:55.560
sell till the time they can remove me to a

1941
02:02:55.600 --> 02:03:00.279
sanitarium any moment. Now they have come for me. Kah

1942
02:03:01.199 --> 02:03:06.520
whisked me off through the night. My discovery will never

1943
02:03:06.640 --> 02:03:13.640
be proved. People will laugh for a while, speak of

1944
02:03:13.720 --> 02:03:20.000
the mad doctor to you, and then I will forget.

1945
02:03:22.359 --> 02:03:22.800
And for me.

1946
02:03:24.840 --> 02:03:29.760
No escape, howld my line?

1947
02:03:33.079 --> 02:03:39.119
No escape, No escape? Oh what a stupid fool. I

1948
02:03:39.239 --> 02:04:11.000
am the Moonbeam, of course, the Moonbeam Fantasy.

1949
02:04:18.439 --> 02:04:21.960
Men call Me Mad, an original tale of dark Fantasy

1950
02:04:22.039 --> 02:04:25.520
by Scott Bishop. Ben Morris was heard as Doctor charles

1951
02:04:25.600 --> 02:04:30.439
terhun eleanor Naylor Corn was Princess Elena. Red Waine was

1952
02:04:30.560 --> 02:04:35.199
King Londelaire Burrello Schofield was Doctor West, your height was

1953
02:04:35.239 --> 02:04:38.439
doctor Smith, and Daryl McAllister was the specialist.

1954
02:04:42.479 --> 02:04:46.720
Well, my dear, I suppose we've had another fine evening.

1955
02:04:47.680 --> 02:04:52.840
I do so appreciate your company, and I do hope

1956
02:04:52.880 --> 02:04:57.920
you'll be back again again very soon. I'll be here

1957
02:04:58.800 --> 02:05:04.039
you know, when you know where. Don't worry. I'm going

1958
02:05:04.199 --> 02:05:09.000
nowhere and fast. But now it's time, as the sun

1959
02:05:09.159 --> 02:05:12.399
prepares to rise, for you to go home and place

1960
02:05:12.479 --> 02:05:16.239
your head on that soft, delicate pillow, rest that soft

1961
02:05:16.560 --> 02:05:21.680
and delicate neck, and drift off into the land of Nod.

1962
02:05:23.439 --> 02:05:25.399
But as you make your way home, as you go

1963
02:05:25.600 --> 02:05:30.199
through the woods, over the river, past grandmother's house, well

1964
02:05:31.159 --> 02:05:33.840
all I ask before you lay that head down and

1965
02:05:34.760 --> 02:05:38.159
send yourself to the land of Nod, is one thing

1966
02:05:39.079 --> 02:05:44.520
aside from it coming back soon. As your eyes get heavy,

1967
02:05:45.680 --> 02:05:49.760
take a moment and be thankful for what you have,

1968
02:05:51.159 --> 02:05:54.199
and I'll be waiting when you need me.

1969
02:06:00.439 --> 02:06:02.720
You being a break it for.

1970
02:06:04.920 --> 02:06:04.960
You.

1971
02:06:05.479 --> 02:06:05.520
You
