00:01:25.480 --> 00:01:34.000
moment. Tired of the every day

15
00:01:34.120 --> 00:01:42.040
life of romantic adventure. I want

half hour of high adventure. You are

18
00:02:08.199 --> 00:02:14.120
stranded with a carnival just the side
of the iron curtains. We're out of

19
00:02:14.159 --> 00:02:19.400
nowhere. A fortune is within your
grass, riding a number on a roulette

20
00:02:19.400 --> 00:02:25.159
wheel hundreds of feet high, while
with your shoulder laughing at you a killer

21

22
00:02:31.280 --> 00:02:54.479
David Freegon and Morton fine story Carnival
in Vienna. In the old days the

23
00:02:54.560 --> 00:02:59.479
Royal of Tenements used to be called
the shutting Off. And there was a

24
00:02:59.520 --> 00:03:02.080
war, and it was called rubbles, and it was cleaned up and it

25
00:03:02.159 --> 00:03:06.919
was just an empty space in the
older part of Vienna. That's where the

26
00:03:06.960 --> 00:03:10.439
carnival set up. Betch and windstands, wheels, the midway act of the

27
00:03:10.520 --> 00:03:15.719
high wire for a valley, rides, pom readers and the biggest Perris wheel

28
00:03:15.800 --> 00:03:20.360
this side of the rhyme, twenty
carriages and a four minuted ride, and

29
00:03:20.439 --> 00:03:30.120
myself front gate Superintendent John Ashcroft Allason, a nice founding name, John Ashcroft

30
00:03:30.199 --> 00:03:35.639
Allison. The help calls me hair, which is mister. That's the way

31
00:03:35.680 --> 00:03:39.360
it is. And there's Lily who
works at gas whenever it's needed. He's

32
00:03:39.360 --> 00:04:04.000

to. Oh, I bet you didn't.

42
00:05:02.160 --> 00:05:06.680
Oh, I did not want to. Hear Joy told me you thought

43
00:05:06.680 --> 00:05:13.199
I stayed. The story was the
carnival of a man who went right.

44
00:05:15.639 --> 00:05:17.439
And once the guy wrote down his
name for me to analyze. My favorite

45
00:05:17.480 --> 00:05:19.920
thinking that you're in four for three
months, all over the place before they

46
00:05:19.920 --> 00:05:26.199
almost caught up with me one day, I would have told you you didn't.

47
00:05:26.399 --> 00:05:30.600
I didn't do anything then. And
he told me, and he told

Why should I do something about him? If in hand, by the

82
00:10:01.960 --> 00:10:05.399

out at me from the aluminum side of

83
00:10:05.440 --> 00:10:09.679
the trailer, and I'm amount of
a ten dollar tie and he winked back

84
00:10:09.679 --> 00:10:15.320
at me, and his lips shaped
the words I was saying, tiny three

85
00:10:15.679 --> 00:10:20.919
thousand dollars letter of credit in mister
Paul Max Wallat, complete with identification card.

86
00:10:22.200 --> 00:10:26.600
So I looked around for the green
short a man with a feather in

87
00:10:26.679 --> 00:10:30.799
his hat with a blonde from maxim
and the way it happened, I bumped

88
00:10:30.799 --> 00:10:35.240
into them coming out of a mirror. I trailed him over to the ferris

89
00:10:35.240 --> 00:10:39.320
wheel, watched mister Max fat down
and changed a couple of tickets. Wait,

90
00:10:39.320 --> 00:10:46.720
didn't they get into a carriage in
a wheel? And I walked over

91
00:10:46.759 --> 00:11:03.399
to get a ex operism A hell
working on qushed his wheel. Don Hey,

93
00:11:09.679 --> 00:11:13.240

94
00:11:13.919 --> 00:11:20.240
Ther boy men comes, why don't
you go over and calculate? Sure,

see money go on treat it got
biggest party on the side of the river,

97
00:11:37.600 --> 00:11:41.320

98
00:11:41.440 --> 00:11:46.519

enjoying to keep him in the carriage like

99
00:11:46.600 --> 00:11:50.600
get it twenty three thousand dollars alf
with a trick twenty to one shot.

100
00:11:52.759 --> 00:11:56.240
Scoop a handful of sand and gravel
off the ground into the oil, intake

101
00:11:58.000 --> 00:12:07.919
another handful another four minutes or fourteen
times around eight times and nothing happened.

102
00:12:09.360 --> 00:12:20.039
Whine and eleven. We could win
the world, find a gap it and

103
00:12:20.120 --> 00:12:24.200
come up bringing up my hand on
the man. Maybe it wouldn't work too,

104
00:12:24.559 --> 00:12:33.000
Maybe I needed another gimmick. Maybe
I ye, parente went why carry

105
00:12:33.600 --> 00:12:46.320
bringing parently wind my maid, all
my water and the carrying out. Then

106
00:12:46.399 --> 00:12:58.480
I closed my eyes. Yeah,
when I opened on the wheel that stopped

107
00:12:58.519 --> 00:13:03.639
spinning. Carriage at the top was
green, and I knew there wasn't a

108
00:13:03.759 --> 00:13:07.320
chance of that wheel coming down for
a long long time, and there wasn't

109
00:13:07.320 --> 00:13:11.600
a ladder that high that could get
them down. Twenty three thousand dollars on

110
00:13:11.720 --> 00:13:28.919
a twenty to one shirt. I
just hit you are listening to Carnival in

111
00:13:28.080 --> 00:13:33.639
Vienna, the night's presentation of Escape. Edgar Bergen fans will be doubly delighted

112
00:13:33.679 --> 00:13:39.200
with the new Edgar Bergan Show with
Charlie McCarthy. Remember Sunday nights on most

113
00:13:39.240 --> 00:13:43.519
of these takens, the New Edgar
Bergan Show with Charlie McCarthy. And now

114
00:13:43.679 --> 00:14:07.759
back to Escape and the second act
of Carnival in Vienna. Carnival and the

115
00:14:07.799 --> 00:14:13.200
big Wheel not spinning anymore against the
Vienna sky, and for a little while

116
00:14:13.279 --> 00:14:18.000
the small riot of Carne wound down, no attraction at it to early afternoon

117
00:14:18.120 --> 00:14:22.639
with a Danube close out of kids
cup to it climbed the girders and hung

118
00:14:22.720 --> 00:14:26.240
from them like skinny rag dolls and
kicked their feet into water's face. It

119
00:14:26.360 --> 00:14:28.960
was going crazy trying to fix the
ferret wheels and a small the tail of

120
00:14:30.039 --> 00:14:33.399
Russian soldier stuff to a tool rnning
up at the merchandise display of black cotton

121
00:14:33.519 --> 00:14:39.960
stockings, boy Indian petticoats, and
at the very very very top, oh

122
00:14:39.279 --> 00:14:43.759
very a gent from Boston, mass
with his arms wrapped around a blonde from

123
00:14:45.240 --> 00:14:48.240
everywhere. I told out of the
handle, it's the best way he could.

124
00:14:48.600 --> 00:14:52.120
I'd round up some refugees to give
my hands, and I walked away

125
00:14:52.159 --> 00:14:58.720
from it down the midway, half
the gaster, past the shooting gallery,

126
00:15:00.159 --> 00:15:07.679
passed him past the flies as where
the Connie started to die and got to

127
00:15:07.720 --> 00:15:11.480
be mud and litter and broken straw, where the trailers were mine bright and

128
00:15:11.559 --> 00:15:16.480
shinier than the red because there was
a displaced fawline, very handy with a

129
00:15:16.600 --> 00:15:33.960
Dutch claws, the needed to work
the job class in penmanship, uh gentle,

130
00:15:33.080 --> 00:15:43.879
the writing hand school, circles and
plant And then Johnny Allison into Paul

131
00:15:43.960 --> 00:16:08.200
mac gents from Boston. Mat oh
Max, Oh mah, what you're doing,

132
00:16:08.320 --> 00:16:17.840
Johnny boy. See what you're doing, Johnny boy. The bottle of

133
00:16:17.919 --> 00:16:21.799
schnaps over the cup of Jewey drink. You're so kid. Huh huh,

134
00:16:22.159 --> 00:16:27.240
no, huh huh. Maybe you
don't understand because you're fuzzed up. You're

135
00:16:27.279 --> 00:16:32.960
not wanted Joey. Oh, now
that hurts, but it's when you said

136
00:16:33.000 --> 00:16:37.279
to an old friend, but you
could buy back my affection. I like

137
00:16:37.399 --> 00:16:41.000
them, Johnny, Honey, I
don't want not to like the lush,

138
00:16:41.679 --> 00:16:45.159
need the lush. Don't talk like
that, Johnny. You made a noise

139
00:16:45.320 --> 00:16:49.039
like twenty three thousand dollars. When
I hear you laugh, I don't know

140
00:16:49.200 --> 00:16:56.000
the angle, but I won't end
half. Johnny impediently dreamed about them further.

141
00:16:56.279 --> 00:17:00.519
That's her picture of money. What
was you doing when I come in?

142
00:17:00.720 --> 00:17:06.039
Johnny? Written a letter practice and
maybe there no feelings digits, just

143
00:17:06.119 --> 00:17:10.880
says you let me see, Johnny. You didn't even let me spee.

144
00:17:11.400 --> 00:17:15.319
But I got something I wanted you
to see, Johnny. I brung it

145
00:17:15.559 --> 00:17:22.039
just to show you. Oh,
Joey, Joey, you're really our fight,

146
00:17:22.160 --> 00:17:27.640
don't you. Uh No, all
this your gun does, Johnny,

147
00:17:29.200 --> 00:17:32.119
all it does in the world is
to make you and me, buddy.

148
00:17:33.000 --> 00:17:36.279
I squeeze it on it just a
little bit, and all it says you.

149
00:17:36.440 --> 00:17:41.880
Hear it, Johnny, All it
says is buddy boy, body like

150
00:17:42.000 --> 00:17:47.440
it was a mama dog. You
say, half me, Johnny, say

151
00:17:47.440 --> 00:17:51.519
half to twenty three grand I don't
sueeze them all. Give it me,

152
00:17:51.640 --> 00:17:53.039
Joey, give me the gun and
then you can go hp the shops.

153
00:17:53.039 --> 00:17:59.640
Final yimke, Joey, you can
squeeze the shop. Just sit right down

154
00:17:59.640 --> 00:18:02.599
on Johnny so he'll go off between
your eyes. Hear me, Joey,

155
00:18:03.400 --> 00:18:18.480
I'll drop it, I'll throw it
away, kim me give me sure nobody

156
00:18:18.799 --> 00:18:22.559
you for a sucking Johnny boy.
You helped me up, and I was

157
00:18:22.079 --> 00:18:41.759
ye, Johnny got to be drink
just like this. He was as dead

158
00:18:41.759 --> 00:18:44.839
as I could make him. I
picked him up, carried him to my

159
00:18:44.920 --> 00:18:48.599
car, prop your body in the
front seat next to me. Whoever may

160
00:18:48.640 --> 00:18:52.359
have seen it figured the only thing
to figure. Joey was sowned again.

161
00:18:52.160 --> 00:18:56.559
Johnny Allison was nice than him,
like he done one thousand and two times.

162
00:18:56.720 --> 00:19:00.319
It took fifteen minutes to drive out
of the edge of the Russian zone,

163
00:19:00.759 --> 00:19:03.200
belong it to a square block of
rubble behind it, to an alley.

164
00:19:04.160 --> 00:19:07.440
I opened a bottle of schnop I'd
remember to bring along benched out my

165
00:19:07.519 --> 00:19:12.119
mouth with it, and boored the
red down Joey's trophy. I shot the

166
00:19:12.119 --> 00:19:15.880
bottle into his coat pocket, eased
him out of the car. What was

167
00:19:15.920 --> 00:19:19.960
in the alley with some garbage cans
scraped clean, some bony dogs who just

168
00:19:21.160 --> 00:19:27.440
stared, and a no name rush
in a trailer might half past one.

169
00:19:27.480 --> 00:19:32.440
I could forge the signature of mister
Paul mac with a pen between my teeth,

170
00:19:33.359 --> 00:19:34.720
eight letters, straight up and down, with a couple of curls in

171
00:19:34.799 --> 00:19:40.359
between. By two, I was
in the Vienna State National Crank and it

172
00:19:40.680 --> 00:19:47.119
strut tut noon, sir, What
can you do for your titter noon?

173
00:19:47.200 --> 00:19:49.799
Your new business with me? To
that my hair? Yeah, my letter

174
00:19:49.880 --> 00:19:56.119
of credit high identification card. I
am Paul Max who boxing the messages?

175
00:19:56.759 --> 00:20:02.240
Of course, well let's give it. Of course, of course, have

176
00:20:02.440 --> 00:20:07.920
none something nothing, nothing but nothing. Everything is in popular. That's only

177
00:20:07.039 --> 00:20:11.759
years. All I want seeing you
telephone yesterday informed because you would not come

178
00:20:11.839 --> 00:20:17.359
here until ten tomorrow morning. Oh
you mean we can't do telephone yesterday because

179
00:20:17.440 --> 00:20:21.880
off noon. Surely you're doing member, surely I do remember my here something

180
00:20:21.960 --> 00:20:25.480
came up between my plans, so
I hear now this afternoon. Did I

181
00:20:25.559 --> 00:20:26.920
make a difference? No, no, no, surely no. I told

182
00:20:26.960 --> 00:20:30.880
you that it gets a short no
to get the money five thousand and fifty

183
00:20:30.920 --> 00:20:37.200
dollars, but not twenty three thousand
thousand. Myn Here that's the notation I

184
00:20:37.400 --> 00:20:44.200
have here. I show you here, that's your telephone yesterday, that you

185
00:20:44.519 --> 00:20:48.480
would come tomorrow. That is a
five thousand, though you do somebody made

186
00:20:48.519 --> 00:20:52.559
a mistake. I look at that
ideal. I need every cent left on

187
00:20:52.599 --> 00:20:56.279
my letter of credit twenty three thousand
cash dollars with or American make a choice

188

Oh sure a wait, whoa what

However, there's the thing if you

in a minute, the very top of

203
00:23:11.400 --> 00:23:18.839
it screaming and timing city at your
home. How is a man to Yeah?

205
00:23:26.640 --> 00:23:30.000
Lily? One of the greens Paris
Rome, London. Dream one over me,

206
00:23:30.119 --> 00:23:34.680
Baby, Johnny Allison makes it come
true and I grab a coat,

207
00:23:34.759 --> 00:23:38.279
Lily in this minute, it's all
you living need. Yeah, it's going.

208
00:23:38.599 --> 00:23:41.720
I told you, whatever ride you
want, whatever bubble to lay against

209
00:23:41.759 --> 00:23:45.440
your neck, to your fingers and
your toes. Is the money you have

210
00:23:45.559 --> 00:23:51.960
saved the front gate superintendent to the
cheap size Peace Cannivent with twenty three thousand

211
00:23:52.079 --> 00:23:57.319
dollars. Jesus, what are you

212
00:23:57.319 --> 00:24:02.440
I would twenty three thousand dollars.
Come on, cover it with a coach?

213
00:24:02.599 --> 00:24:04.839
Will you get such money? John
What difference? It's green? It

214
00:24:04.920 --> 00:24:08.279
makes a funny sound, and rub
together, make it whisper and advise.

215
00:24:08.440 --> 00:24:12.160
Mank for you and soak for me
like I saw once in the shopping room

216
00:24:14.960 --> 00:24:18.079
baby for stuff room. Sir,
Johnny can look good, So Johnny can

217

look swell? So Johnny can you? S I promoted it? Baby?

218
00:24:25.160 --> 00:24:27.960
You start it from the American who
screams from the top of the bell me

00:24:29.279 --> 00:24:33.759
baby me, Johnny Alison, come
on, get out. I want no

220
00:24:33.880 --> 00:24:37.960
part but you. You're talking to
Lily, the man with the promises,

221
00:24:38.000 --> 00:24:42.000
the man with the dreams. So
don't call me dream men, men of

222
00:24:42.160 --> 00:24:49.920
nothing, Lily, not. I
loves a baby. Not with you.

223
00:24:51.480 --> 00:24:55.680
Harmis men, dream men. You've
feed men of angers and gimmick them.

224
00:24:55.759 --> 00:25:08.200
Come morning, true anything else you
need to say, you have joy and

225
00:25:08.480 --> 00:25:15.039
lush. Dunk down with your heads
down, with your stupidity, don with

226
00:25:15.119 --> 00:25:22.359
your tongues. Joe, Joe,
Joe, it's Johnny Ellison. Who is

227
00:25:22.599 --> 00:25:34.680
Joe Joey Joy? No Joy?
Shouldn't call me that Joy. You shouldn't.

228
00:26:00.440 --> 00:26:03.279
I stood over for a long time, all the time that we needed

229
00:26:03.799 --> 00:26:08.039
her, fingers done, clenched and
trail along the floor for the life to

230
00:26:08.160 --> 00:26:11.759
go out of her, and then
get out. Walk, don't run to

231
00:26:11.799 --> 00:26:18.079
the midway crowd in the parish wheel
moving now midway in the Palace of Fun.

232
00:26:18.720 --> 00:26:21.599
I'm back edged to the world through
the hall of mirrors, and I

233
00:26:21.759 --> 00:26:26.039
was on my way Hans the cloudland. At this time I didn't care Johnny

234
00:26:26.039 --> 00:26:30.279
Allison on his way with twenty three
grand to take him wherever he wanted to

235
00:26:30.359 --> 00:26:34.720
go. All a mirror. I
know it like a book, like I

236
00:26:34.759 --> 00:26:44.160
knew the backup, back to my
hands. So turn the corner way.

237
00:26:48.240 --> 00:26:55.079
Sometimes a guy forgets Alison fun hall
of mirrors. They had time to get

238
00:26:55.119 --> 00:26:59.000
in. It's fun trying to get
out. Whoever I went, Johnny Allison

239
00:26:59.079 --> 00:27:03.000
came right back at me. I
wasn't telling ellow be trying to be the

240
00:27:03.079 --> 00:27:12.359
tenent dodge easy. I didn't see
myself. I wouldn't be there when I'm

241
00:27:14.279 --> 00:27:22.119
what. I couldn't get along too
many, too many with me. He

242
00:27:22.160 --> 00:27:26.440
didn't look like her anymore. It
didn't look like anybody. I don't yeah,

243
00:27:27.480 --> 00:27:52.240
like killing me me like you the
way he said said okay, yeah,

244
00:27:52.640 --> 00:27:56.640
I think is there on the floor. Uh to kill a girl,

245
00:27:56.440 --> 00:28:03.640
then to hide in the hall of
mirrors stupid perhaps, Not For here a

246
00:28:03.759 --> 00:28:12.240
man can laugh at death Johnny laughs
ag And here a man can observe himself

247
00:28:12.359 --> 00:28:19.200
in a thousand mirrors agents from every
anger. That is, if a man

248
00:28:19.359 --> 00:28:49.920
can stand looking at himself. H
m hmm. Escape has brought you.

249
00:28:51.039 --> 00:28:55.440
Carnival in Vienna, a story written
and directed by David Freakin and Morton Pine,

250
00:28:56.119 --> 00:28:59.759
featured in the cast with Jack Moyles
Willingham biased, Jack Crusian and a

251
00:29:00.079 --> 00:29:03.839
SONRAI also heard where Barney Phillips,
Robert Boone, and George Baroni. You're

252
00:29:03.839 --> 00:29:08.640
an author, George Walls. The
special music for Escape is spled unconducted by

253
00:29:08.720 --> 00:29:14.680
Leif Stephens. Ah. Oh,
I'm sorry, here's your tea, grown

254
00:29:15.279 --> 00:29:18.079
stone cold. Well, allow me
to freshen that up for you, my

255
00:29:18.240 --> 00:29:26.079
dear. Well, well, that
story had a lot to it. But

256
00:29:26.240 --> 00:29:30.960
this one, this one I find
a little more devious, A little dark

257
00:29:32.240 --> 00:29:41.839
dark, something a little more here
here, simply called Chicken Hawk. I

258
00:29:42.000 --> 00:29:48.240
feel the title will reveal itself to
you as you listen, So relux let

259
00:29:48.319 --> 00:29:51.440
me freshen up your tea. I
know it gets so cold down here so

260
00:29:51.599 --> 00:29:59.400
quickly. These thick concrete walls,
well they give this air as if there's

261
00:29:59.440 --> 00:30:03.880
no escape from me. And perhaps
they're right, But but that's neither here

262
00:30:03.920 --> 00:30:07.000
nor there were there. But what's
that? Oh no, no, no,

263
00:30:07.079 --> 00:30:11.319
no no, I'm sure you'll be
fine now, relaxed, and we'll

264
00:30:11.359 --> 00:30:17.079
start this story that I've dusted off
from my collection in just a moment.

265
00:30:18.519 --> 00:30:25.039
Do you remember, some time ago
in an Eastern scientific institution, they kept

266
00:30:25.039 --> 00:30:29.680
a peace of heart alive for weeks
on end. Well, I got to

267
00:30:29.759 --> 00:30:37.119
thinking, what if the heart began
to grow and grow and grow? Grow?

268
00:30:47.559 --> 00:30:49.079
Hello, go a lot right to
give me, mister Reagan, Fast

269
00:30:51.039 --> 00:30:52.720
love, mister Reagan, this is
Lewis. Listen, get me a rewrite.

270
00:30:52.759 --> 00:30:56.839
Man. The things still grow,
no cheap. I tell you the

271
00:30:56.880 --> 00:31:00.920
truth. That cardor's choked with living, crawling flesh. No, no,

272
00:31:00.200 --> 00:31:03.680
no, I'm not drunk. I'm
telling you the truth. That little piece

273
00:31:03.680 --> 00:31:07.440
of place is brown into us,
jamming that building all inside the space of

274
00:31:07.440 --> 00:31:10.960
an hour. You've got to believe
me. It's the greatest news story of

275
00:31:11.000 --> 00:31:14.039
the generation. And here you argue
with me. I tell you it's the

276
00:31:14.160 --> 00:31:17.079
truth. You've got to believe what
you believe me. I tell you the

277
00:31:17.200 --> 00:31:18.839
only hope is to burn the building
to the ground and run. Now,

278
00:31:18.960 --> 00:31:22.599
wait a minute, do wear take
it? I tell you, burn it

279
00:31:22.720 --> 00:31:26.119
to the ground, burn. I
tell you take it easy. I send

280
00:31:26.200 --> 00:31:30.759
it a call. Oh don't you
understand. For some reason, I cannot

281
00:31:30.759 --> 00:31:34.240
even imagine. This tissue is doubling
in size every hour. So you know

282
00:31:34.319 --> 00:31:37.920
what that means. In another hour, it will be twice the size it

283
00:31:38.039 --> 00:31:41.880
is now, and long before that
it will break open the building with the

284
00:31:41.960 --> 00:31:45.119
force of its pressure. And then
it will be free in the street,

285
00:31:47.599 --> 00:31:52.119
free in the street. And then
those those tentacles of protoplasms stretching out to

286
00:31:52.240 --> 00:32:00.880
feed on anything they can reach.
You get it. See the walls were

287
00:32:00.920 --> 00:32:15.599
wounds, were wounds, you say
to warn them. Now it's just too

288
00:32:15.680 --> 00:32:29.039
next the heart is free. M
m m gottment, come to order,

289
00:32:29.079 --> 00:32:34.119
please, gentlemen, please quiet,
quiet, please please please. Now that's

290
00:32:34.200 --> 00:32:37.559
Mayor. No one realizes more than
I do, the necessity of immediate action

291
00:32:37.680 --> 00:32:40.880
incurring this unspeakable, unbelievable emergency.
When I am showing you the highest speeches.

292
00:32:40.920 --> 00:32:45.440
Matt. That basket thing is spreading
like a forest fire. Calm the

293
00:32:45.519 --> 00:32:52.319
governor say, wait, wait,
wait, please wait here is doctor Albert

294
00:32:52.400 --> 00:33:00.720
to the church is to step up
here, doctor Tuesday. Gentlemen, it

295
00:33:00.920 --> 00:33:05.480
was in my institute this horror began. And if you give me a chance,

296
00:33:06.079 --> 00:33:08.839
perhaps I can stop it. What
is it? Doctor tellispers that monster

297
00:33:08.880 --> 00:33:14.279
really is? Yes, yes,
I will tell you that great, ever

298
00:33:14.400 --> 00:33:20.960
growing mass of flesh it is,
or it was a chicken heart heart?

299
00:33:21.200 --> 00:33:27.759
Are you crazy? Man? I
tell you chicken heart. Listen to me,

300
00:33:27.839 --> 00:33:37.240
you pull. I tell you that
mass of flesh was a chicken heart,

301
00:33:38.000 --> 00:33:43.839
the tissue of which, for some
reason is undergoing constant, rapid accelerating

302
00:33:43.960 --> 00:33:47.480
growth that every passing hour its growth
is doubling. Do you know what that

303
00:33:47.680 --> 00:33:52.240
means? If it is now one
block in size, within thirty hours,

304
00:33:52.359 --> 00:33:57.680
that cannibal flesh will have increased in
size to one square block, to the

305
00:33:57.799 --> 00:34:01.400
thirtieth power. In thirty hours us
every inch of this whole city will be

306
00:34:01.519 --> 00:34:07.319
crushed under that moving flesh. Within
sixty hours, it will uncovered the entire

307
00:34:07.480 --> 00:34:10.519
state, within two weeks, the
entire United States. You asked for the

308
00:34:10.639 --> 00:34:15.880
national God, I say, called
out the entire army, blessing of the

309
00:34:19.239 --> 00:34:22.880
already keiths covers already all holes.
Is trouble. We'll flood that thing with

310
00:34:22.000 --> 00:34:38.239
water from all angles, all right
here up see without the fools, what

311
00:34:38.400 --> 00:34:46.159
good is water? I told them? The only hope is artillery bonds.

312
00:34:46.559 --> 00:34:52.480
All National Guardsmen report to your arm
range. All National Guardsmen report to your

313
00:34:52.599 --> 00:34:59.119
arm range, General momilation batterian positions, sir, that's very well out,

314
00:34:59.320 --> 00:35:19.800
yes here where useless. This has
grown too large, It grows too quickly.

315
00:35:20.599 --> 00:35:31.440
The freshies already in gulfing with guns. They came too late. You

316
00:35:31.480 --> 00:35:36.360
are right now, doctor Robins.
Yes, yes, I'm all right as

317
00:35:36.400 --> 00:35:39.119
to day all well, I sure, I am glad I located you.

318
00:35:39.599 --> 00:35:43.039
I stole as long as I could
another ten minutes, and we couldn't have

319
00:35:43.079 --> 00:35:46.119
taken off That lasted protoplasm or whatever
it is, was sucking at the wheels

320
00:35:46.159 --> 00:35:52.119
at the time we left the ground
ass as I saw. I well,

321
00:35:52.159 --> 00:35:54.320
we'll go was around up here for
a few minutes and then head west.

322
00:35:54.360 --> 00:35:59.480
It will do no good. You
can't mean it. It must stop growing

323
00:35:59.599 --> 00:36:05.960
sometimes, it must look at it, the great blankets of evil covering everything.

324
00:36:07.159 --> 00:36:10.119
See how the roads are black with
men and women and their children running

325
00:36:10.159 --> 00:36:15.679
for their lives. See how the
protoplasmic gray reaches out and engulfs them.

326
00:36:15.960 --> 00:36:22.400
Stop talking like that, we'll get
away. The government will send bombing planes

327
00:36:22.480 --> 00:36:27.960
poison gas. O. Listen to
the Lewis. You remember, only a

328
00:36:28.039 --> 00:36:30.679
handful of days ago you asked me
my prophecy of the end of the earth.

329
00:36:31.440 --> 00:36:36.760
You remember my answer, Oh,
such a scholarly prophecy, sessation of

330
00:36:36.880 --> 00:36:43.119
earth rotation, mighty sounding astronomical theories. But now this is reality, Lewis.

331
00:36:43.480 --> 00:36:46.800
The end has come for humanity.
Not in the red of atomic fusion,

332
00:36:47.159 --> 00:36:52.079
not in the glory of interstellar combustion, not in the peace of white

333
00:36:52.280 --> 00:36:59.480
cold silence, but with that creeping, grasping flesh allow us. It is

334
00:36:59.519 --> 00:37:02.440
a joke, hey, lewis a
great joke, the joke of my husbands,

335
00:37:02.760 --> 00:37:08.800
the end of man cash because of
the chickens. No, no,

336
00:37:09.039 --> 00:37:13.320
we won't die. I can't die. I'll find a sleep, finding somewhere,

337
00:37:13.400 --> 00:37:16.440
I'll find a place cut out.
We're in a spin. I take

338
00:37:16.480 --> 00:37:20.719
it out of it. I told
you doom. No, no, old

339
00:37:20.840 --> 00:37:24.239
mankind, doom. No, we're
falling right into it, into the heart.

340
00:37:42.920 --> 00:37:45.679
Well, I know you may have
been expecting something I don't know.

341
00:37:45.800 --> 00:37:54.679
I don't know that different. But
there's something about the rhythm bum bom bom

342
00:37:54.880 --> 00:38:02.360
bom bom bom bomb, much like
the rhythm to your favorite songs. It

343
00:38:02.480 --> 00:38:10.920
brings you joy, it brings you
life, but also eventually the ceases.

344
00:38:15.079 --> 00:38:17.639
Well look at me going on and
on when it's gotten so late. Soon

345
00:38:17.719 --> 00:38:22.920
the sun will be back up,
and I'll need the return to where I

346
00:38:22.119 --> 00:38:28.119
come from. And you should return
to your beautiful home, your comfortable bed,

347
00:38:29.159 --> 00:38:34.079
your warm pillow, and as you
make your way home, as you

348
00:38:34.239 --> 00:38:39.639
lay your head down for the nice
night snaps. Remember I'll be here waiting

349
00:38:40.679 --> 00:39:04.719
and be thankful for what you have. You remumbling privately, prett
