00:00:12 Why should any phenomenon be assumed impossible?
00:00:17 The universe begins to look more and more like a great thought
00:00:22 than a great machine.

00:01:11 [Music]
00:01:40 [Music]
00:01:54 [Screaming]
00:02:04 Hey, my mother!
00:02:06 [Screaming]
00:02:19 [Screaming]
00:02:27 My mother!
00:02:28 [Screaming]
00:02:37 [Screaming]
00:02:57 Did he hurt?
00:02:58 No, he's okay.
00:02:59 [Screaming]
00:03:02 [Screaming]
00:03:07 This is nothing but a strong sedative.
00:03:09 [Screaming]
00:03:15 [Screaming]
00:03:34 [Screaming]
00:03:43 [Screaming]
00:04:01 There'll be oxygen.
00:04:03 I don't get it.
00:04:05 Just when he seems to be getting so much better, you...
00:04:08 What does he do?
00:04:10 I wish I knew.
00:04:11 I guess tomorrow I'll have him in intensive behavior management.
00:04:14 We'll bust him a garden trying to break out of here.
00:04:17 I don't know. Maybe I brought him along too quickly.
00:04:20 I mean, it's too bad that we've got to put him in there.
00:04:23 Those others...
00:04:25 Oh, yeah. Too bad.
00:04:28 [Crying]
00:04:33 [Crying]
00:04:40 I, uh...
00:04:41 You know, I talked to all the doctors and I tried to stop this, but...
00:04:45 I figure that, uh...
00:04:47 If everything goes well, you should be back in my unit very soon.
00:04:54 Arnold...
00:04:56 I know that you can be helped.
00:04:59 I'm going to keep trying.
00:05:00 I didn't kill anyone.
00:05:02 And if I didn't kill anyone, then I'm not insane.
00:05:05 And I'm not going to confess to something I didn't do.
00:05:11 Arnold...
00:05:16 If you need anything, you get word to me.
00:05:24 I'm sorry about what happened the other night.
00:05:27 And I know that you'd help me if you could.
00:05:29 Take care.

00:06:11 [Indistinct chatter]
00:06:40 [Indistinct chatter]
00:06:43 I'm waiting for a train.
00:06:47 Save a seat for me.
00:06:51 I watch from here every day.
00:06:55 And what is due soon?
00:06:58 That's the nice thing about trains.
00:07:01 They're always going somewhere.
00:07:03 I killed my own daughter.
00:07:08 She had become a whore.
00:07:10 They say maybe I'm crazy.
00:07:13 But they do not understand an act of honor.
00:07:16 I didn't kill anyone.
00:07:19 My mother was sick for a long time.
00:07:21 I stayed with her and I took care of her.
00:07:24 This doctor was treating her.
00:07:26 Determined that she had a tumor.
00:07:29 The operation was expensive.
00:07:32 I couldn't afford to pay him.
00:07:34 We had no insurance.
00:07:35 Oh, there was a house, an old house.
00:07:37 My mother wouldn't sell that no matter what.
00:07:45 The doctor refused to operate.
00:07:52 I argued with him.
00:07:56 I lost my head.
00:07:57 People in the office saw me cursing him.
00:08:00 I ran away.
00:08:02 But I came back.
00:08:03 I was going to beg him to reconsider.
00:08:12 He was on the floor, dead.
00:08:16 I guess...
00:08:19 When I reached for the scalpel, I got some of his blood on me.
00:08:25 I ran to the police and I told them everything.
00:08:28 I guess they knew the fall guy because they took everything I said and they twisted it.
00:08:32 They charged me with murder.
00:08:36 My lawyer sold me out.
00:08:38 The trial was a joke.
00:08:42 That was the difference.
00:08:45 I believe you.
00:08:57 They said they'd have a nurse look after my mother.
00:09:01 But they didn't.
00:09:04 And she died.
00:09:06 Four days.
00:09:08 That nurse hadn't been to see her in all that time.
00:09:12 They didn't tell me about it until six months after it happened.
00:09:16 They didn't tell me.
00:09:17 Because they were afraid the shock would be too much for me.
00:09:28 Your train is late.
00:09:30 Maybe I can help you.
00:09:33 How?
00:09:35 The day before I die, I shall kill the pimp that made my daughter into a whore.
00:09:42 The day after I die, I shall help you find justice for yourself.

00:10:40 Amelia!

00:11:55 [train whistle]
00:12:09 Where have you been?
00:12:10 I went to look for a priest.
00:12:12 I found my man last night.
00:12:14 I carved my name in his chest and slit his throat.
00:12:19 What did the priest say?
00:12:21 He denied me my last rites.
00:12:24 [music]
00:12:34 [screaming]
00:12:38 [music]
00:12:55 The state attorney called this morning.
00:12:57 He opened the letter Amelia had left.
00:12:59 He wanted you to have his stuff.
00:13:01 Thank you.
00:13:02 Thank you very much.
00:13:03 Well, Amelia doesn't have any next of kin, you know.
00:13:08 No, I didn't know that.
00:13:10 Yeah.
00:13:12 Yeah, it's funny.
00:13:13 I got a letter for him just this morning.
00:13:16 No return address, no note.
00:13:18 It's just a newspaper clipping.
00:13:20 I found-- hey, wait a minute.
00:13:25 Waller Johnson Black was found dead in his downtown apartment this afternoon.
00:13:33 Investigators say that the gruesome murder has all the earmarks of a ritual killing.
00:13:40 The victim's throat was cut and his chest severely slashed.
00:13:44 Johnson had a long police record going back--
00:13:47 Hey, what are you--
00:13:48 Nothing. Pardon me. Pardon me.
00:13:50 How do you like that?
00:13:53 Somebody send in something like that to somebody in a place like this.
00:13:58 Terrible.

00:14:43 [scoffs]
00:14:46 You okay, Arnold?
00:14:48 Yeah, I'm all right. Just a little headache.
00:14:51 You want something?
00:14:52 No, no, no. I'll be all right. I'll be all right.
00:14:55 Okay, try to get a little sleep.
00:14:57 Yeah. Yeah.

00:16:03 Object, Arnold Masters, male Caucasian, age 33,
00:16:08 74 1/4 inches, 179 pounds.
00:16:12 Time of death, approximately 12.52 a.m.
00:16:15 Cause of death to be determined.
00:16:18 Preliminary examination prognosis, shock.
00:16:22 [footsteps]
00:16:27 [water running]
00:16:29 Now let's take a look at his heart.
00:16:32 I'm about to make an incision above the fourth rib,
00:16:35 diagonally toward the lower abdomen.
00:16:38 It will bear the area of the heart.
00:16:40 [gun cocks]
00:16:42 [gunshot]
00:16:43 [screams]
00:16:45 That's the goddamnedest thing I ever heard.
00:16:47 You perform a not-copsy on a patient that was still alive?
00:16:50 Dr. Comminger, the man was medically dead
00:16:52 when he was brought into the room.
00:16:53 If the papers get hold of this,
00:16:54 we're gonna look like a bunch of Frankensteins.
00:16:57 Dr. Comminger, may I point out--
00:16:59 Oh, George, just shut up.
00:17:00 You haven't killed anybody yet.
00:17:02 Now, get out of my office and try to keep your mouth shut.
00:17:06 [footsteps]
00:17:09 Now, what about the patient?
00:17:10 What kind of shape is he in?
00:17:12 Well, as near as I can tell,
00:17:13 he was in a deep state of shock over the death of another patient,
00:17:16 which might explain--
00:17:17 Well, never mind that.
00:17:18 What kind of shape is he in today, right now?
00:17:21 He seems controlled, rational.
00:17:24 No outward stress, huh?
00:17:27 Okay.
00:17:28 Send Mr. Masters in here.
00:17:30 Yes, doctor.
00:17:32 Patients jumping over walls,
00:17:34 autopsies performed on patients while they're still alive.
00:17:38 Do you have any idea what would have happened
00:17:40 if we'd killed Masters before that paper came out?
00:17:43 I'm sure Mr. Masters would have been justifiably upset.
00:17:46 Well, Mr. Masters,
00:17:53 how are we feeling today?
00:17:56 [chuckles]
00:17:58 You certainly gave us quite a scare.
00:18:01 Uh, have a chair.
00:18:04 Actually, I sent for you to come up here
00:18:08 because I have some very good news for you.
00:18:11 The official word just came through.
00:18:16 A man came forward last night
00:18:18 and confessed to the crime from which you were committed to this institution.
00:18:25 You are hereby released from this institution
00:18:28 as all charges against you have been dismissed.
00:18:31 I really don't know how a thing like this ever could have happened.
00:18:44 After all, it's not the first time
00:18:46 an innocent man has been unjustly accused.
00:18:48 We certainly hope that you'll take this in the proper spirit
00:18:51 and go on and live a successful and happy life.
00:18:55 Please don't hesitate to ask us to do anything in our power
00:18:58 to help you in your efforts at rehabilitation
00:19:01 from something that must have been a terrible ordeal for you.

00:22:02 Please write. I will always love you.

00:24:19 Come on, darling. Nobody's gonna bite you.
00:24:23 Except me.
00:24:26 [door closes]
00:24:29 Why don't you start the fire while I get us something to drink?
00:24:45 How you doing, darling? Fine.
00:24:49 Paul? Yes?
00:25:01 Do you come here often?
00:25:03 If you're asking do I bring women here often, the answer is no.
00:25:07 No, no, I wasn't asking that.
00:25:11 Well, of course you were, and I expect you to.
00:25:15 That's why I'm such a good doctor and you're such a good patient.
00:25:20 It's because we, uh, we understand each other.
00:25:23 Here, try some of this.
00:25:26 Nature's Tranquilizer.
00:25:29 Let me give you a little free psychiatric advice.
00:25:35 You're cheating on your husband.
00:25:39 For the first time.
00:25:42 It's only natural that you, uh, be a little tense at the beginning.
00:25:54 [laughs]
00:25:56 Please.
00:25:59 I'm not through.
00:26:07 You see, my dear, here you are, the honest.
00:26:12 To whom you've transferred all your incestuous feelings you suppressed for your late father.
00:26:19 Stand up.
00:26:33 [music]
00:26:54 Beautiful. Someone as sensual and beautiful as you shouldn't be wasted.
00:27:00 Oh, I love you.
00:27:05 I love you more than anyone.
00:27:08 I love you more than anyone.
00:27:25 Did you hear that?
00:27:27 No, nothing.
00:27:29 I love you more than anyone.
00:27:32 What is it?
00:27:35 Be quiet.
00:27:37 I love you, my darling.
00:27:39 Hear what?
00:27:40 Beautiful.
00:27:41 Paul.
00:27:42 Come on, darling.
00:27:44 No one's gonna bite you, except me.
00:27:48 What is it, Paul?
00:27:50 [laughs]
00:27:52 I love you, my darling.
00:27:54 What's the matter with you?
00:27:56 You think you can make a fool out of me?
00:27:58 Who is that out there?
00:27:59 Paul, what is it?
00:28:00 You didn't hear anything, I suppose.
00:28:02 No, nothing.
00:28:04 Paul, are you all right?
00:28:06 [laughs]
00:28:08 Whoa!
00:28:10 Paul!
00:28:11 All right, who is it?
00:28:12 Here I am.
00:28:13 Who's out there?
00:28:14 Here I am, darling.
00:28:16 Follow me.
00:28:18 Follow me.
00:28:20 Here I am.
00:28:22 Over here.
00:28:23 Over here.
00:28:25 No one's gonna bite you, except me.
00:28:29 [laughs]
00:28:32 All right, who is it?
00:28:33 Who's out there?
00:28:35 [laughs]
00:28:39 No one's gonna bite you, my darling.
00:28:42 [laughs]
00:28:47 Come on, darling.
00:28:48 Be free.
00:28:49 [laughs]
00:28:52 Come on, darling.
00:28:53 Don't be afraid.
00:28:54 Come on, come on.
00:28:56 Arnold Masters, although abnormally attached to his mother,
00:29:00 and by nature recluse,
00:29:02 and antisocial in behavior,
00:29:04 is in most instances a person who would have...
00:29:06 [explosion]
00:29:12 You did not see anyone.
00:29:14 Is that right, Mrs. Chan?
00:29:17 Could you answer the question, please?
00:29:19 No.
00:29:20 And where were you at this time?
00:29:22 I, um...
00:29:24 I was on the floor.
00:29:25 What were you doing on the floor?
00:29:27 I was, um...
00:29:29 He was kissing me.
00:29:31 Is that when he began to act strangely?
00:29:34 What do you mean, strangely?
00:29:36 Look forward, please.
00:29:40 Well, he was lying on the floor with a naked woman.
00:29:44 You were naked, weren't you?
00:29:48 Could you answer the question, please?
00:29:50 Yes.
00:29:52 Yes, what?
00:29:53 Yes, I was naked.
00:29:55 So you didn't hear anything?
00:29:57 No.
00:29:59 How can you explain that?
00:30:02 I can't.
00:30:07 You don't believe me.
00:30:09 I'd like to believe you, Mrs. Turner, but a man is dead.
00:30:12 You were the last one to see him.
00:30:14 Well, I didn't do anything.
00:30:15 Somebody sure as hell did,
00:30:16 and you were obviously on intimate terms with Dr. Taylor.
00:30:19 Can I go?
00:30:21 What was your husband doing in the office?
00:30:23 I told you everything.
00:30:25 I want to go home.
00:30:30 Did you take Mrs. Turner home?
00:30:35 I don't get it.
00:30:36 He fired that shotgun at somebody,
00:30:38 but there's no trace of blood or no footprints other than his.
00:30:41 And I know damn well she didn't do it
00:30:43 because she's not big enough to break his neck the way we found it.
00:30:46 You sure about it, old man?
00:30:48 I'll tell you what I know.
00:30:49 He's been in Chicago the past six months on a business deal.
00:30:52 He spent a lot of time away from home.

00:31:58 Now, Mr. Schaefer, are you having those bad thoughts again?
00:32:02 [cat meowing]
00:32:04 It's just that these uniforms always shrink.
00:32:09 You don't know how uncomfortable they are.
00:32:12 [breathing heavily]
00:32:16 Now, Mr. Schaefer, don't get any ideas.
00:32:18 It's just that this uniform is strangling me.
00:32:21 [kiss]
00:32:22 [breathing heavily]
00:32:25 You're lucky to have me, Mr. Schaefer,
00:32:28 to massage your legs, to clean up the mess you make in your bed.
00:32:32 I'm on my feet all day, and I don't have anyone to take care of me.
00:32:36 I have to do it all by myself.
00:32:39 Most men don't know how to massage women, you know.
00:32:42 I'll bet you do, though.
00:32:44 I'll bet you are the most gentle man in the world.
00:32:50 And I can usually tell.
00:32:52 Well, let's see.
00:32:54 Now, you're not due for another intermittent 9 o'clock,
00:32:56 so I think I'll relax and take a shower.
00:32:58 [moaning]
00:33:06 [music]
00:33:10 I'll be back in a few minutes.
00:33:13 Why don't you take a little nap?

00:52:06 A man feeding a pussy cat.
00:52:09 [laughs]
00:52:11 This morning he sat in that chair for three hours and didn't make a move.
00:52:15 Maybe he was tired.
00:52:17 [music]
00:52:21 What's the matter?
00:52:23 I think he...
00:52:26 Well, I'm not sure, but I think he's asleep.
00:52:28 Well, let's wake him up so you can talk to him.
00:52:30 [clicking]
00:52:32 Anything to help you with your obsession, Lieutenant?
00:52:35 You know what my real obsession was? You might not be so obliged.
00:52:38 With my luck, it'd be necrophilia.
00:52:40 [laughs]
00:52:43 [phone ringing]
00:52:49 He's not answering.
00:52:51 Frank.
00:52:54 Check the tap on his phone.
00:52:56 [tapping]
00:53:00 It's ringing.
00:53:03 And he's not moving.
00:53:08 What do you want me to do?
00:53:10 Let it ring.
00:53:12 [ringing]
00:53:19 Wrap it up, Ed. We got him cold.
00:53:21 Cold?
00:53:22 The land deal doesn't have to be ratified by the state if we apply sections 2654A, article 43 of the tax code structure.
00:53:29 1937.
00:53:30 Okay.
00:53:31 It's never been changed and challenged only once.
00:53:33 Dover versus Martindale and Dover lost, meaning what's good for him is good for us.
00:53:37 Okay.
00:53:38 That should make your client happy and get a few shekels to cut up between us.
00:53:41 Okay, I like the idea. Bye.
00:53:43 Oh, hey, by the way, it wouldn't do any harm if we can get the contractors to cut us in for 12% of all future dealings in that area.
00:53:51 He should go for that, too.
00:53:53 Bye.
00:53:57 Christ, I've got to call my broker this afternoon.
00:54:02 Sanders here. Get me CF.
00:54:04 CF, Sanders speaking.
00:54:06 What? Where are you?
00:54:07 I'll be there at the doubles match in 15 minutes.
00:54:10 We should be able to beat these guys.
00:54:13 No, but not too badly.
00:54:14 I want to lock up the equity funding proxy sales at the same time.
00:54:18 Bye.
00:54:21 Stopping off at my building to check things out.
00:54:24 If I'm not there every minute, they screw everything up.
00:54:29 [car door opens]
00:54:31 [car engine starts]
00:54:36 [car door closes]
00:54:43 [laughs]
00:54:50 [phone rings]
00:54:55 Shirley, make a note.
00:54:58 Tell the goddamn contractor that I ordered early Roman lettering.
00:55:02 What did I get?
00:55:03 Beverly Hills Imperial.
00:55:05 He'll say I changed my mind, but if he'll re-read the specifications, he'll find out that I can really stick it to him.
00:55:11 But he doesn't know from contracts. He doesn't know from buildings.
00:55:17 Feed this back to me on Monday.
00:55:19 Tell Max to 86 the beige carpeting and swing over into royal blue,
00:55:25 which should go nicely with the prints of the keen paintings that the kid at UCLA is hustling up for me.
00:55:31 Shirley, make a note to call Phil and see if I can make an under-the-table deal with Sam
00:55:37 for those Louis XIV telephones out of the Rothenburg foreclosure.
00:55:42 Shirley, I got it. I got it!
00:55:45 Call the plumber first thing in the morning.
00:55:47 The reception will have an imitation trevy fountain
00:55:51 cascading behind two of the most beautiful receptionists you've ever seen.
00:55:55 Next to you, huh?
00:55:57 [laughs]
00:55:58 [singing]
00:56:06 I love it all. Every stick, every brick, all of it mine.
00:56:11 [singing]
00:56:39 It's mine. Every stick, every brick, all of it is mine.
00:56:44 [singing]
00:56:54 [thunder]
00:56:55 He's waking up.
00:57:00 [phone ringing]
00:57:02 Hello.
00:57:06 Hello. Arnold?
00:57:08 Who is this?
00:57:09 Dr. Scott.
00:57:11 Oh, hello.
00:57:13 I'm in town just for the day. I wondered if I could come by and see you.
00:57:17 Oh, certainly, certainly. Do you have my address?
00:57:20 Yes. Um...
00:57:21 Fifteen minutes, all right?
00:57:23 Uh, yes, yes, yes. Sure.
00:57:27 What's the matter?
00:57:32 I feel a little like a police informer.
00:57:35 I'll put it this way. If he's done nothing wrong, then you'll be helping him.
00:57:39 I suppose so.
00:57:41 Oh, keep him by the window so we can see both of you.
00:57:44 If there's a problem, we'll be there fast.
00:57:46 That's hardly necessary. He isn't dangerous.
00:57:49 Keep him by the window anyway.
00:57:51 Hello, Arnold.
00:57:55 Hello.
00:57:56 Oh, won't you come in, please?
00:58:02 Sure.
00:58:04 Would you like to sit down?
00:58:06 Thanks.
00:58:07 Oh, may I get you something?
00:58:18 Oh, no. No, thank you.
00:58:20 I just wanted to see how you were getting along.
00:58:24 Oh, fine, fine. I'm adjusting, trying to get a job, you know.
00:58:29 How about the nightmares?
00:58:32 Oh, they're all gone.
00:58:34 Good.
00:58:35 Um, could I see that, please?
00:58:40 No.
00:58:42 That was Emilio's, wasn't it?
00:58:44 It's mine now.
00:58:46 What does that mean to you? Why do you wear it?
00:58:49 I like it.
00:58:51 Why do you like it?
00:58:53 I think I'll... I think I'll make some tea.
00:58:56 I make very good tea.
00:58:58 Oh, I don't want any.
00:59:00 Thank you.
00:59:02 I want you to be open with me, the way you used to be.
00:59:10 Arnold, are you in some kind of trouble?
00:59:17 Ashton!
00:59:18 Lieutenant.
00:59:21 Dr. Scott.
00:59:23 What is it?
00:59:24 You better come with me.
00:59:26 Are you working with the police?
00:59:29 Of course not. I came here to see you.
00:59:32 I assume this is a real emergency, Lieutenant.
00:59:34 It is.
00:59:35 Look, Arnold, I came here to see you because...
00:59:39 You don't owe me any explanation.
00:59:41 You'd better go with the Lieutenant. He has a real emergency.
00:59:45 Don't you, Lieutenant?
00:59:47 That's right.
00:59:50 That son of a bitch knows.
00:59:57 What are you talking about?
00:59:58 He knows. You see the smile he just gave me? He knows.
01:00:00 He knows what?
01:00:02 A crane, unattended, mysteriously drops a cornerstone on Harvey B. Sanders.
01:00:26 If that crane was locked up and nobody was there, how could it have killed him?
01:00:31 That's what's driving me crazy.
01:00:33 If you'll pardon the expression.
01:00:35 I know what you mean.
01:00:36 Getting interested, Doc?
01:00:38 Yep, I guess I am.
01:00:40 And it's Laura, Lieutenant.
01:00:43 Then it's Jeff, Doc.
01:00:45 Dinner?
01:00:48 Where?
01:00:49 My place?
01:00:51 Sure.
01:00:54 [Cups clatter]
01:00:56 You're not a bad cook.
01:01:00 Or cop.
01:01:02 Purely self-defense.
01:01:05 And self-taught.
01:01:07 Your wife didn't educate you?
01:01:11 I didn't say anything about being married.
01:01:14 Well, you didn't have to. I, uh...
01:01:16 I looked around your bedroom and I saw her picture.
01:01:20 With a little boy.
01:01:21 Doc, that's invasion of privacy.
01:01:23 Probably.
01:01:25 Where are they now?
01:01:26 Phoenix. She remarried.
01:01:28 She, uh...
01:01:32 She always wanted to be in the same place, you know, have everything organized.
01:01:35 I went away to become an FBI man.
01:01:40 I thought it would be exciting.
01:01:42 It wasn't.
01:01:44 So, when I had enough of that,
01:01:47 I came back here to be with her.
01:01:49 I was just a little too late.
01:01:51 She'd already found somebody else.
01:01:53 [Chuckles]
01:01:56 Doc, I'm beginning to sound like a patient.
01:01:58 I was just curious about you.
01:02:01 Yep.
01:02:02 And I was doing all the talking.
01:02:04 Well, now it's my turn to be curious about you.
01:02:09 Oh, I come from a small town in Arkansas.
01:02:13 You've probably never even heard of it.
01:02:15 Blyville.
01:02:18 Blyville?
01:02:19 [Chuckles]
01:02:20 The only trouble was that everybody always watched everybody else there.
01:02:25 Nobody ever did anything very interesting.
01:02:28 Well, what brings you out here?
01:02:33 I mean, to that hospital?
01:02:35 I took my residency there.
01:02:37 And, uh...
01:02:39 I went into private practice for a while, but...
01:02:42 I suppose what really interests me the most is...
01:02:46 helping people who are...
01:02:48 on the outer fringes.
01:02:51 So, I went back to the hospital.
01:02:54 Everybody's always got his eye on you there, too.
01:02:58 Well...
01:03:04 I'm sure tomorrow's going to be a very long day.
01:03:08 So, rather than waste a whole lot of time fencing around,
01:03:13 why don't we just go to bed?
01:03:16 I'll meet you there...
01:03:18 as soon as you're finished.
01:03:21 I'm finished!
01:03:27 [Door slams]
01:03:28 [Distorted music]
01:03:31 [Distorted music]
01:03:33 [Distorted music]
01:03:59 [Water running]
01:04:01 [Gasps]
01:04:06 I didn't come here to hurt you.
01:04:09 I wanted to see you.
01:04:13 Why?
01:04:14 You were my only friend.
01:04:16 Come out here so I can see you.
01:04:18 I can see you. That's enough.
01:04:21 Should I be afraid of you?
01:04:23 Not you.
01:04:24 Did you kill those people?
01:04:26 [Distorted music]
01:04:28 All the time I was in the hospital,
01:04:32 I thought about you.
01:04:34 About how beautiful you are.
01:04:36 I've been watching you all evening.
01:04:39 How could you do that?
01:04:41 I watched you make love to him.
01:04:44 I wish it had been me.
01:04:47 Laura!
01:04:48 Laura?
01:04:49 What's the matter?
01:04:55 I want to go to where you're watching Arnold's house.
01:04:58 And I want to go right now.
01:05:00 He hasn't moved out of that chair all night.
01:05:04 Was he asleep earlier?
01:05:06 Yeah.
01:05:07 Up until about 15 minutes ago.
01:05:10 Uh-huh. Uh-huh.
01:05:11 What the hell is this all about?
01:05:13 Look, I'm telling you that I saw him.
01:05:15 I saw him as clearly as I see you right now.
01:05:17 That's impossible.
01:05:18 I am a trained psychiatrist.
01:05:20 I spent four years in medical school,
01:05:21 four years in internship,
01:05:22 and I don't care where you work.
01:05:23 I have worked at the state mental hospital
01:05:25 for the last seven years of my life.
01:05:27 I've been psychoanalyzed by the best doctors
01:05:29 in the whole world.
01:05:30 I am not insane.
01:05:31 I was not sleepwalking.
01:05:32 And I know an hallucination when I see one.
01:05:34 And I am telling you that I saw Arnold Masters
01:05:36 in your apartment 35 minutes ago.
01:05:38 That's...
01:05:39 Where are you going?
01:05:40 I am going to see an old professor friend of mine.
01:05:43 He's at Redlands University.
01:05:45 If I leave here right now,
01:05:46 I can be there by 9 o'clock.
01:05:47 What if I drive you there?
01:05:48 We can be there by 8.30.
01:05:52 All right.
01:05:53 Now, what you're seeing is energy.
01:06:02 Energy.
01:06:04 Every object has an energy force,
01:06:09 an aura around it.
01:06:12 Now, this was suspected for many centuries.
01:06:14 As a matter of fact,
01:06:15 many artists claim to have seen this aura
01:06:18 and painted it as a halo around their figures.
01:06:20 But it wasn't until 1939,
01:06:23 when the Russian couple Semyon and Valentina Kurlyan
01:06:26 succeeded in actually photographing this,
01:06:29 that we had any scientific evidence of its existence.
01:06:33 Now, this aura is not static.
01:06:41 It varies, which is very interesting.
01:06:44 And we in this university at this time
01:06:46 are experimenting with certain types
01:06:48 of mental and physical disorders
01:06:51 to see if we can find any practical application
01:06:54 of this principle.
01:06:56 Aha!
01:07:02 Do you recognize this slide?
01:07:04 Huh?
01:07:06 It happens to be the one we took
01:07:08 just a half hour ago of each of your hands.
01:07:11 If I may say so,
01:07:13 by the amount of energy visible on that film,
01:07:17 yours is a relationship definitely worth cultivating.
01:07:22 If we learn nothing more,
01:07:28 we will at least have a lucrative mate-matching
01:07:32 or marriage-counseling business here.
01:07:36 Well, now, doctor, this is all very interesting.
01:07:40 But how does any of this relate to Hono Masters?
01:07:47 I can't say precisely,
01:07:49 but many of us in parapsychology believe
01:07:53 that the energy force in any human can be controlled.
01:07:59 And it's conceivable
01:08:01 that this energy can be projected, propelled,
01:08:06 what we call an out-of-body experience.
01:08:09 Then you're telling me
01:08:11 that that could explain how Hono Masters killed people
01:08:14 while he, or rather as you say, his body was miles away?
01:08:19 It could explain it,
01:08:21 but I don't want to jump to conclusions.
01:08:23 I'm merely suggesting certain avenues
01:08:26 that you might be wise to explore.
01:08:28 You know, in our enlightened days,
01:08:32 we know of only four types of energy,
01:08:35 gravitational, electromagnetic,
01:08:37 and the weak and strong nuclear forces.
01:08:39 But the existence of nuclear forces
01:08:42 was not even suspected before this century.
01:08:46 Now, I'm not prepared to say with any degree of certainty
01:08:49 that we have found every force in nature, are you?
01:08:52 There must be at least one more force
01:08:55 operating on a physical level
01:08:57 which would tend to support psychic phenomena.
01:09:00 There must be.
01:09:01 Could you spell it out, doctor, in layman terms,
01:09:05 just how he killed them?
01:09:08 If he did.
01:09:09 If he did.
01:09:11 It's possible that Mr. Masters
01:09:17 has so learned to control the art of releasing energy
01:09:23 from his living body,
01:09:25 and that this energy, or spirit if you will,
01:09:29 is malevolent, mean, angry,
01:09:32 and this spirit goes out to murder those
01:09:36 whom he thinks have done him harm.
01:09:39 That's what I thought you meant.
01:09:42 Well, it's not that incredible, lieutenant.
01:09:44 I venture to say that even you have at one time or other
01:09:47 experienced some psychic phenomena.
01:09:50 Well, if I have, I sure don't remember it.
01:09:52 Well, all right, let's see.
01:09:54 Have you ever thought of a dear friend
01:09:58 you hadn't seen in years,
01:10:00 and suddenly there's a phone call?
01:10:03 Or did you ever experience doing or saying something
01:10:06 in a certain place once before in precisely the same way?
01:10:11 Have you ever had a stab of anguish for a dear loved one,
01:10:15 and the very next day, a fateful telegram?
01:10:20 Doctor, I'm sorry to be so slow getting into this,
01:10:31 but this is so far off a small town cop.
01:10:35 So are those poor deaths.
01:10:37 You're not alone.
01:10:38 There are many extremely intelligent people
01:10:41 who are simply unwilling to accept this.
01:10:43 I have been teaching and studying psychic phenomena
01:10:46 for 35 years,
01:10:48 but I can understand your reluctance.
01:10:52 Still, if I could observe Mr. Masters firsthand,
01:10:56 perhaps I could tell you more.
01:11:02 Okay, let's go.
01:11:05 He may be in a trance.
01:11:09 I'm sorry, I really can't tell from so far away.
01:11:14 Then let's go get a closer look.
01:11:21 Masters!
01:11:24 Masters!
01:11:27 Lieutenant, I know the law is your department,
01:11:31 but don't we need a search warrant or something?
01:11:33 Look, Doc, we came by here to see him.
01:11:35 When there was no reply, we became concerned.
01:11:37 We found the door open, and we came in.
01:11:41 That's just the way it happened.
01:11:46 [footsteps]
01:11:49 [bells jingling]
01:11:55 No pulse.
01:12:09 No breathing.
01:12:11 [bells jingling]
01:12:16 No heartbeat.
01:12:18 No corneal reflex.
01:12:21 No nothing.
01:12:23 He was in the same state when they found him in his cell at the hospital.
01:12:27 And they pronounced him dead.
01:12:29 In a strict sense, he is medically dead.
01:12:33 [bells jingling]
01:12:38 [bells jingling]
01:12:42 Doctor, did you notice the amulet around his neck?
01:13:02 Yes. I wonder what it might represent.
01:13:05 He got it from another patient.
01:13:07 The man left it for him after he killed himself.
01:13:10 All right, what do we do now?
01:13:13 Wait for him to return.
01:13:15 Wait? Isn't there something you can do to pull him out of this?
01:13:18 No.
01:13:20 You might notify all the potential victims if you wish.
01:13:23 I already have. That'll do any good.
01:13:26 And I'll be.
01:13:28 [bells jingling]
01:13:33 [bells jingling]
01:13:36 Crisis, crisis, crisis. Up and up.
01:13:40 The government tells me how to run my business.
01:13:42 You tell me how to run my business.
01:13:44 What's a man to do?
01:13:45 I'll tell you what to do.
01:13:46 Try living on welfare with food stamps to feed your children.
01:13:50 Well, don't blame me. I didn't vote for him.
01:13:52 Oh, yes, you did. You just don't want to admit it right now.
01:13:55 Well, what's the difference?
01:13:57 We're all a bunch of thieves.
01:13:59 Will you put some meat in this package? That's what I'm paying you for.
01:14:02 Carbohydrates, good for the kids.
01:14:04 I'm going to report you to the food and welfare people.
01:14:07 Do me a favor. Take your business somewhere else.
01:14:09 I will report you to the NAACP.
01:14:12 Report, report.
01:14:14 One of these days, I'm going to give it up and go to Florida.
01:14:17 In the meantime, will you take your hands off the scale?
01:14:21 How much do I owe you?
01:14:23 422.
01:14:24 Jesus!
01:14:26 Jesus lived on bread and water for 40 days and 40 nights.
01:14:30 It was not Jesus. It was Moses.
01:14:33 Food stamps. A man can't pay his bills with food stamps.
01:14:37 You take them damn food stamps or I'll report you.
01:14:40 Report, report.
01:14:42 That's what I'm going to do.
01:14:44 I'm going to report you.
01:14:46 You know better than me, baby.
01:14:50 I don't care to hear that.
01:14:53 I'm not going to worry about that. I'm so sorry.
01:14:56 You come back here.
01:14:58 I won't come back in here.
01:15:02 And give my regards to the kids.
01:15:06 And give my regards to the kids.
01:15:11 [Door opens]
01:15:14 [Bell rings]
01:15:17 [Bell rings]
01:15:20 [Bell rings]
01:15:23 [Bell rings]
01:15:26 [Bell rings]
01:15:29 [Gunshots]
01:15:57 [Screams]
01:15:59 He's coming back.
01:16:24 He's almost back to normal.
01:16:27 What are you doing here?
01:16:29 I'm Dr. Gubner.
01:16:32 We came to make sure that you were all right.
01:16:34 We were very worried about you, Arnold.
01:16:36 That's very thoughtful of you.
01:16:39 Were you very worried?
01:16:41 Not a bit.
01:16:42 Why not?
01:16:44 Because the doctor here tells me that you have some sort of a psychic way of getting out of your body and committing murders.
01:16:50 That's a very interesting theory you have there, doctor.
01:16:54 But you'd best keep it to yourself or else these good people just might have you committed.
01:16:58 Hey.
01:16:59 And you can stop pretending.
01:17:01 Because I know you're doing it. Somehow.
01:17:03 Well, what do you think you can do about it?
01:17:05 Well, I can put you back in that hospital.
01:17:07 Well, maybe I'll put you where you belong.
01:17:09 Do you really think you can challenge me?
01:17:11 Yeah.
01:17:12 Because I'm not afraid of freaks like you.
01:17:15 You're all hung up on Mom, aren't you, Arnold?
01:17:17 That's your big problem.
01:17:19 You can't provoke me, lieutenant.
01:17:21 And I'm not stupid enough to give you an excuse to shoot me.
01:17:24 But we'll meet again sometime.
01:17:26 When you're alone.
01:17:27 All alone except for me.
01:17:29 Mr. Masters, I'm not a detective. I'm a parapsychologist.
01:17:32 You are not capable of dealing with what's happening to you.
01:17:36 Perhaps Dr. Scott and I could help you.
01:17:39 Arnold, let us help you. Please.
01:17:42 Get out.
01:17:45 [Footsteps]
01:17:47 Oh, lieutenant.
01:17:56 I think you'll find some real bargains tonight at Lemonoski's butcher shop.
01:18:01 I understand he has some choice cuts available.
01:18:04 Fresh.
01:18:06 [Tires screeching]
01:18:10 [Tires screeching]
01:18:12 Lemonoski!
01:18:22 Lemonoski!
01:18:24 Stay. Stay.
01:18:27 Come on.
01:18:39 Lemonoski!
01:18:41 Lemonoski!
01:18:43 Hey, Lemonoski!
01:18:47 Lemonoski!
01:19:15 Dr. Horan, pathology.
01:19:17 Oh, my God. My God.
01:19:27 Well, doctors, what do we do now?
01:19:32 Wait for him to kill somebody else?
01:19:35 We could try having him committed, and we might be able to work with him,
01:19:39 but that would take weeks, months.
01:19:41 I hate to disagree, doctor, but it'll take more than weeks and months, more likely years.
01:19:45 And even then, lieutenant, there's no guarantee that we will know more than we know now.
01:19:50 But I've got five dead people on my hands right now,
01:19:53 and I don't know when the hell this thing is gonna end.
01:19:55 The end will be a major breakthrough for science and mankind if we succeed.
01:20:00 What about the next poor guy who gets his throat cut?
01:20:02 Or maybe hacked up in some butcher shop?
01:20:04 He's not gonna give a damn about your theories.
01:20:06 I'm sorry I can't be tied down to your set of values.
01:20:09 You're a police lieutenant, and I'm a practical scientist.
01:20:12 Wait a minute.
01:20:19 Didn't you tell me that when the energy force leaves his body,
01:20:24 he is clinically and medically dead?
01:20:27 Clinically, medically, yes.
01:20:29 Thank you very much, doctor. I won't be needing your services any longer.
01:20:34 What are you thinking, Dr. Scott?
01:20:36 I'm thinking the lieutenant is planning to kill our masters.
01:20:39 Exactly what I'm thinking. We can't let him do that.
01:20:41 How can we stop him?
01:20:42 We must persuade the masters to come under our protection.
01:20:44 We tried that once.
01:20:45 Then we must try again.
01:20:48 (Screams)
01:20:51 (Screams)

01:20:58 (Screams)
01:21:01 (Screams)
01:21:22 (Screams)
01:21:24 He's dead. There's no doubt about it.
01:21:30 Everything seems to be in order.
01:21:36 (Engine starts)
01:21:39 (Engine stops)
01:22:07 What are you doing here?
01:22:08 I think the question might be what are you doing here?
01:22:10 This is none of your business. I don't want you to get involved.
01:22:12 Lieutenant, do you realize what you're doing?
01:22:14 Yes, I'm acting as judge, jury and executioner.
01:22:17 But I don't want you to become involved. Either of you.
01:22:20 Why?
01:22:22 Because it'll make me feel better.
01:22:24 The medallion.
01:22:31 He wasn't wearing the medallion.
01:22:33 Dr. Kovner, what are you doing?
01:22:35 I don't want to be in the house.
01:22:38 (Engine starts)
01:22:41 (Engine stops)
01:22:44 (Engine starts)

01:23:47 Dr. Kovner?
01:23:49 Dr. Kovner?
01:23:55 (Gunshot)
01:23:56 Search the other side.
01:23:58 Don't overlook anything that might have meaning.
01:24:01 (Footsteps)
01:24:04 (Footsteps)
01:24:06 (Squeal)
01:24:28 Oh!
01:24:30 (Panting)
01:24:32 (Gunshots)
01:24:59 (Gunshots)
01:25:01 Dr. Scott, come quickly! I found something!
01:25:05 (Gunshots)
01:25:12 (Squeal)
01:25:21 He shouldn't have come into her room.
01:25:24 (Squeal)
01:25:26 I tried to keep it so nicely.
01:25:33 My mother never hurt anyone.
01:25:38 All I ever tried to do was help her.
01:25:41 But they wouldn't let me.
01:25:43 And now it's late. So very, very late.
01:25:47 What can I do now?
01:25:50 Of course, Arnold.
01:25:52 Everybody knew that you loved her.
01:25:56 Everything I love dies.
