00:00:00A Father's Day Present
00:00:05Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ha, ha, ha, ha!
00:00:09Brains and bones and bats and bones
00:00:12and teenage monsters and hard horns,
00:00:14a ghost on a stair, a vampire's bite.
00:00:17Beware! There's a full moon tonight!
00:00:30Animal spiders creep and crawl, boys and ghouls having a ball, Frankenstein, Dracula and even
00:00:42the mummy are sure to end up in somebody's tummy.
00:01:00Take a fresh rodent, some toadstools and weeds, and add an old owl and the young ones she
00:01:05breeds.
00:01:06Then seven legs from an eight-legged beast and then you're all set for a cannibal feast.
00:01:27Sit round a fire with this cup of brew, a fiend and a werewolf on each side of you.
00:01:33This cannibal orgy is strange to behold and the maddest story ever told.
00:01:57The Mary Syndrome, so called because its only known occurrence is among the descendants
00:02:02of one Ebenezer Mary, a progressive age regression beginning about the tenth year and continuing
00:02:08steadily throughout the victim's lifetime.
00:02:11It is believed that eventually the victim of the Mary Syndrome may even regress beyond
00:02:17the pre-natal level, reverting to a pre-human condition of savagery and cannibalism.
00:02:26Many authorities do not accept the existence of the Mary Syndrome.
00:02:32Incredible but true, nevertheless, I know only too well.
00:02:41Of course, there's no Mary Syndrome anymore.
00:02:46She was extinguished forever from the human race that fateful day, ten years ago.
00:03:08Can you tell me where the Mary house is?
00:03:36I said the Mary house!
00:03:42If there is any such place, we don't know anything about it.
00:04:05No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
00:04:34no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
00:05:03no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
00:05:32no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
00:06:02no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
00:06:32Oh
00:06:54Anybody home
00:06:58Anybody home
00:07:00Please say yes. Somebody's home.
00:07:20Hello in there.
00:07:30Hello?
00:07:35Hello?
00:07:41Hello?
00:07:45I caught you!
00:07:49I caught you. I caught a big, fat bug right in my spiderweb.
00:07:55And now the spider gets to give the bug a big stink.
00:08:19Virginia!
00:08:21Virginia, are you crazy?
00:08:23Now look what you've done.
00:08:26You're bad. Bad!
00:08:29Bruno's going to hate you.
00:08:53Bruno!
00:09:23Bruno!
00:09:54Olivia!
00:09:56Olivia!
00:10:07Elizabeth!
00:10:09Virginia!
00:10:18Elizabeth!
00:10:20Virginia!
00:10:24Elizabeth!
00:10:34Elizabeth!
00:10:37Bruno, Virginia hurt somebody real bad.
00:10:41You ought to hate her.
00:10:43Elizabeth, how many times have I told you it's not nice to hate?
00:10:53Oh.
00:10:57Oh.
00:10:58Stop it. Stop it.
00:11:07One time I hate them all.
00:11:11And now this.
00:11:16Elizabeth.
00:11:17I trusted you. I left you in charge.
00:11:20It's not my fault. I didn't do it.
00:11:22She did it. She was playing spider.
00:11:25You should hate her.
00:11:27No. I left you in charge.
00:11:31Virginia!
00:11:33Virginia, you come here right now!
00:11:37Ralph!
00:11:38What?
00:11:39Ralph!
00:11:43Ralph!
00:11:44Ralph!
00:11:45Ralph!
00:11:46Ralph!
00:11:48Ralph!
00:11:49Ralph!
00:11:52Ralph.
00:11:53We're home now.
00:11:55Ralph.
00:11:57Ralph.
00:11:58Ralph.
00:11:59We're home now.
00:12:00Ralph.
00:12:13Ralph!
00:12:22Ralph!
00:12:23Ralph!
00:12:24Ralph!
00:12:25Ralph!
00:12:26Ralph!
00:12:27Ralph!
00:12:28Ralph!
00:12:29Ralph!
00:12:42Virginia, now you stay right there.
00:12:45Sit down.
00:12:47Sit down.
00:12:49You too, Elizabeth.
00:12:52Sit down.
00:12:58Now, children, I want to tell you something,
00:13:01and I want you to listen very, very carefully.
00:13:06You remember last time when those two children climbed over the wall
00:13:11and Virginia almost caught them in her spider web?
00:13:16Well, that got people to wondering about us.
00:13:19And that's bad.
00:13:21Your daddy wouldn't like that, Virginia.
00:13:24Now, I can't be here all the time.
00:13:28You know that I have to take Ralph into the city to the doctor once in a while.
00:13:34And Virginia, you were supposed to mind your sister.
00:13:37You were not supposed to play spider anymore.
00:13:42Now, you never, never can play spider again.
00:13:46Oh, Ralph, what have you got there?
00:13:50Something that man had.
00:13:52Ralph, give it to me.
00:13:54That's it.
00:13:56Thank you, Ralph.
00:14:03This is from a lawyer.
00:14:08Now, a lawyer?
00:14:10What is it, girl?
00:14:12Something bad, isn't it?
00:14:15How many times do I have to tell you?
00:14:17Just because something isn't good doesn't mean it's bad.
00:14:20What do you mean bad?
00:14:22It must be something very bad.
00:14:26Nothing is very bad.
00:14:29It isn't?
00:14:34He's going to come here and bring other people.
00:14:39Daddy wouldn't like that.
00:14:41What other people?
00:14:43They want to make...
00:14:46They want to become your legal guardians.
00:14:51As the only other known surviving heirs of the estate of Titus W. Mary.
00:15:01Isn't that Daddy?
00:15:04On the 14th of...
00:15:09Today is the 14th.
00:15:14Now, children, we've got to keep some secrets today.
00:15:38Huh?
00:16:08Come on.
00:16:38What are you doing?
00:17:01What do you want that for?
00:17:04Hurry up. I want to watch Uncle Nick.
00:17:06You're not supposed to.
00:17:11Hey! Look out!
00:17:16I'm coming, Uncle Nick.
00:17:36I'm coming, Aunt Claire.
00:17:39Aunt Martha.
00:17:41I'm coming, Uncle Ned.
00:18:07Really, Emily. I mean, I wish you'd kind of...
00:18:10Peter, if you don't like my driving, you may feel free to take a trolley.
00:18:14Now, wait just a minute. This was not my idea.
00:18:17I've never heard of the Mary family. What is that?
00:18:20They're our cousins, darling. It behooves us to meet them.
00:18:24All right. I mean, you know, all right.
00:18:27But remember that it was not my idea, okay?
00:18:30Of course not, darling.
00:18:32You don't have ideas, baby Peter brother.
00:18:53What in the world makes you think this is the right road?
00:18:55It's got to be.
00:19:03Ha! There, you see?
00:19:17So...
00:19:19this...
00:19:21is it.
00:19:23I don't see any sign of, uh, what's-his-name?
00:19:26Uh, the lawyer.
00:19:28Obviously, he hasn't arrived as yet.
00:19:31The caretaker here probably went to meet him in a horse and buggy.
00:19:50Might as well go on up.
00:19:52They'll be along any minute. Why don't we, uh...
00:19:55What's the matter, Peter? Chicken?
00:19:58Well, I just don't think it's, you know, just right
00:20:00to go barging in on somebody that you're about to sue.
00:20:03Oh, just remember, we're trying to avoid that expense...
00:20:07if possible.
00:20:09Well...
00:20:11I'll leave that up to you.
00:20:25I'll leave that up to you.
00:20:55I'll leave that up to you.
00:21:25Oh!
00:21:43What happened? You saw a ghost, right?
00:21:45Don't be funny!
00:21:47There was a... there was an awful, uh...
00:21:51a baboon!
00:21:53You don't have a complete double-duck fit!
00:22:23Mr. Stalker, I think it means that you opened the door for me.
00:22:48Yes.
00:22:54What's going on here? Why have we stopped?
00:22:57They're blasting up ahead, sir.
00:22:59They're what?
00:23:03Blasting, sir, for the new highway.
00:23:06Oh. Well, better wait it out, I suppose.
00:23:09Yes, sir. They won't be long, sir, Mr. Shocker.
00:23:13The name is Schlocker, Mr. Bruno.
00:23:17Oh, please, sir. Uh, Bruno. Just plain Bruno, sir.
00:23:21Oh, very well, Bruno.
00:23:23Uh, I want to tell you I appreciate your cooperation in this matter.
00:23:28I wasn't expecting it, frankly.
00:23:33Cooperation, sir?
00:23:35Well, yes, uh, to tell you the truth, uh...
00:23:38I was fully prepared to avail myself of the services of a marshal, should it be necessary.
00:23:43Well, thanks to your cooperation, it isn't, sir.
00:23:47I appreciate that, and I'll do my best to see that you're not forgotten.
00:23:52Forgotten, sir? I don't quite understand.
00:23:56Well, in the disposition of the estate,
00:24:00I firmly believe that so many years of faithful service should not go unrewarded,
00:24:05no matter how ill-advised.
00:24:08Thank you, sir.
00:24:10Now, Bruno, I'd like to ask a few questions, if you don't mind.
00:24:14Very well, sir. Go ahead, sir.
00:24:17Now, it is my understanding
00:24:20that for the past several years, you have been the sole, uh,
00:24:24custodian of the three children of the late Titus W. Mary.
00:24:28Is that correct?
00:24:30As you say, sir. For some many years.
00:24:33And that these same three children have, uh,
00:24:36never been allowed the benefits of any sort of formal schooling?
00:24:40No, no, sir. The master wouldn't have allowed that.
00:24:44And professional medical care?
00:24:47On the contrary, sir.
00:24:49I assure you there have been regular and frequent visits.
00:24:52You mean they're not well?
00:24:54Well, uh, as well as could be expected, sir.
00:24:58You see, they're not, uh, ordinary children.
00:25:02Well, I'm sure we can all agree to that, Bruno, but nevertheless...
00:25:06You see, they're, uh, well, you might call them retarded.
00:25:09Retarded? Well, I should think so.
00:25:11Nearly full-grown and never a day of school.
00:25:14Walter, I don't think you understand, Mr. Shocker.
00:25:18I'm afraid you don't understand, my dear fellow.
00:25:21There are properly qualified institutions for the care of the, uh,
00:25:25the deprived.
00:25:27Especially when there are substantial estates to be administered.
00:25:31Uh, frankly, I find the whole affair rather shocking.
00:25:35I may add there are proper judicial remedies for such abuses.
00:25:50I don't think the master would like this.
00:25:55Come on, buddy. Let's get this car out of here.
00:25:58Yes, sir.
00:26:06Oh, my dear Miss Hall.
00:26:09So nice to see you here.
00:26:11And the young Mr. Hall.
00:26:14Hi, Sucker. How are you?
00:26:16Good to see you, my boy.
00:26:18See, this is my secretary, Miss Morris.
00:26:20Hi, Miss Morris. How do you do?
00:26:22Hi.
00:26:23Oh, I'm so glad you're here.
00:26:25I'm so glad you're here.
00:26:27I'm so glad you're here.
00:26:29I'm so glad you're here.
00:26:31I'm so glad you're here.
00:26:33How do you do?
00:26:34Hi.
00:26:35Get the rest of it, Schlager.
00:26:38Let's go in and take a look at the place.
00:26:40Oh, yes. I've been away from the children too long already.
00:26:45You just follow me and I'll show you where to park your machine.
00:26:49But if I may ask a favor, please.
00:26:53Please treat the children tactfully.
00:26:55You see, they're not accustomed to strangers.
00:26:58They might act wild if encouraged.
00:27:07Now, ladies, this is your auntie Emily and your uncle Peter.
00:27:12Elizabeth.
00:27:14And Virginia.
00:27:16That's two pretty names for two such pretty young ladies.
00:27:19This is Miss...
00:27:20Anne.
00:27:21Anne.
00:27:24Ralph. Where's Ralph?
00:27:25Ralph.
00:27:27Virginia.
00:27:31Ralph.
00:27:34Virginia.
00:27:36Ralph.
00:27:37Ralph.
00:27:45Ralph.
00:27:52Oh, he's all right, Emily.
00:27:54He's just a big kid.
00:27:56Yes, it's like you say, sir.
00:27:58He's just a big kid.
00:28:04Now, see here, Bruno.
00:28:06You don't seem to realize just how serious all this is.
00:28:09Now, these children are obviously in need of qualified professional care.
00:28:16Wouldn't you say?
00:28:18Well, there's a great deal in what you say, sir.
00:28:21But I gave their father a solemn oath...
00:28:24that I'd never allow their unfortunate malady to become the object of public scrutiny.
00:28:30Nonsense.
00:28:31The days when we hid our insane behind walls of shame went out with that old car of yours.
00:28:38They're talking about us, Virginia.
00:28:41I know.
00:28:42But Mr. Shocker, an oath to a dying man, that can't be taken lightly.
00:28:47Now, Bruno, what do you mean by malady?
00:28:51I mean, well, I've seen backward kids.
00:28:54Well, no, it's more than a retardation.
00:28:57It's sort of a regression, a progressive deterioration of the mental faculties.
00:29:04A rotting of the brain, so to speak.
00:29:07It begins in late childhood and progresses rapidly, ultimately resulting in physical deformity.
00:29:17Rather like the last stages of paresis.
00:29:21Really that bad?
00:29:23Yes, sir.
00:29:25The Mary family, or at least this branch of them, have been afflicted for generations.
00:29:31And I'm sorry to say, sir, I think this is the last generation.
00:29:36What a shame.
00:29:39Bruno, you mean all three of these?
00:29:42Yes, sir.
00:29:44The unfortunate result of inbreeding.
00:29:48Never mind that now, Bruno.
00:29:50We can go into all that at the proper time.
00:29:53Let's see.
00:29:54Yes.
00:29:55I would like to know the whereabouts of certain other members of the Mary family.
00:29:59The two sisters of Titus W. Mary and brother named, I believe, Nedrick Mary, if alive.
00:30:10Alive?
00:30:12Well, you might say so, sir.
00:30:15Come on, Bruno.
00:30:16Don't beat around the bush.
00:30:17Are they around or not?
00:30:19They're talking about Uncle Ned.
00:30:22I know.
00:30:24Well, it became necessary to put them in a more private sort of an institution.
00:30:30My good man.
00:30:32Are you saying that you, that the family chauffeur has been in sole charge of this entire estate and these minor children?
00:30:43Oh, I never thought of it that way, sir.
00:30:46You see, I promised the master that...
00:30:48Yeah, yeah, we know all about that.
00:30:50Listen, Schlocker, it's been a long trip.
00:30:52I'd like to get cleaned up and get off my feet for a while.
00:30:55We can go through this after dinner.
00:30:58Dinner?
00:30:59Yes, sir.
00:31:00It is dinner time.
00:31:01In fact, Bruno, we intend to spend the night.
00:31:03Oh, no, sir.
00:31:05That's quite impossible.
00:31:06Why, we're not prepared for guests.
00:31:10There seems to be a difference of opinion as to who is the guest and who the host here.
00:31:18You do have food in the house, don't you?
00:31:22Yes.
00:31:24You see, our diet is very austere.
00:31:28I suppose we could find something.
00:31:32Yes.
00:31:33Yes, I suppose we could.
00:31:35Uh-huh.
00:31:47I smell a bug.
00:31:49A big, black, juicy...
00:32:20Help me!
00:32:31I'm proud of you, Virginia.
00:32:33You're doing so well.
00:32:39Ralph, it's ready, Bruno.
00:32:41Oh, thank you, Elizabeth.
00:32:43Bring him right down.
00:32:49My dear, there's no doubt in my mind that we have here an absolutely clear-cut, prima facie, open-and-shut case.
00:32:56Great.
00:32:57Now, all I want to know is what is it worth in dollars and cents?
00:33:01Well, that's a little difficult to tell at this juncture.
00:33:05Perhaps with an audit, Miss Morse, give me Schedule B.
00:33:09All right here, Mr. Schlatter.
00:33:11Of course, this is only the visible part of the iceberg, so to speak.
00:33:14With more information, we can project the curve.
00:33:18Hey, hi, Ralph.
00:33:21Emily, look at Ralph.
00:33:23He's getting all dressed up for it.
00:33:26Oh, yes, isn't he cute?
00:33:42Ladies and gentlemen, dinner is served.
00:33:48Well, at last.
00:33:50Thank you, Virginia.
00:33:52That was very good, Virginia.
00:33:54Can I feed Winifred now?
00:33:56Winifred?
00:33:57Oh, no, no, not now.
00:33:59Can't she wait?
00:34:00If she gets hungry, she'll go looking for something to eat.
00:34:04Oh, in that case, you go right ahead.
00:34:08In that case, you go right ahead.
00:34:10But hurry up, hurry up.
00:34:12I will, I will.
00:34:16Hungry, Miss Morse?
00:34:18Oh, yes, I'm famished.
00:34:21Shall we, then?
00:34:23Well, there we are.
00:34:26Just sit wherever you like.
00:34:28We're not very formal here at Mary House.
00:34:32We haven't had guests in a long time.
00:34:35No, it's been a long, long time.
00:34:38I might add that it's a great pleasure.
00:34:45You can sit down now, Ralph.
00:34:49Winifred?
00:34:51Winifred?
00:35:19Barney, you came back.
00:35:23Naughty Winifred.
00:35:25You didn't tell me.
00:35:27Virginia, we're waiting for you.
00:35:45Sit in your chair, Virginia.
00:35:47Sit in your chair, Virginia, please.
00:35:58Voila!
00:36:03What is that?
00:36:07Well, that's rabbit.
00:36:09Obviously.
00:36:11Not bad, Bruno.
00:36:13Looks done to a turn.
00:36:15Thank you, sir.
00:36:16I hope you enjoy it.
00:36:18You know, we're very fortunate to have meat for our guests.
00:36:21You see, we're vegetarian.
00:36:23Vegetarians?
00:36:25It's dead.
00:36:26We don't eat dead things.
00:36:29But good Lord, man, why on Earth?
00:36:32The master.
00:36:33Don't say it.
00:36:34You made a promise.
00:36:36It was no idle whim, I assure you.
00:36:39The master knew of the grave danger.
00:36:41The danger?
00:36:42Yes, Bruno.
00:36:43What is that supposed to mean?
00:36:45Well, the master believed and he should know
00:36:48that the eating of flesh would hasten the progress of their condition.
00:36:53Now, I've heard everything.
00:36:54Wait a minute, Bruno.
00:36:56Now, you mean like that old story about the lion cub
00:36:58who's actually tame until he gets his first taste of fresh meat, right?
00:37:02I'm afraid it's even more serious than that, sir.
00:37:07Well,
00:37:09whatever that is,
00:37:11a rabbit or whatever,
00:37:15I pass.
00:37:17Well, it looks good to me.
00:37:19Hey, I'll carve.
00:37:21Thank you, sir.
00:37:23Carry on.
00:37:25Oh, and I must tell you all,
00:37:27you have Ralph here to thank for providing us.
00:37:30Is that right?
00:37:31Good for you, Ralph.
00:37:35I'll, uh,
00:37:37I'll have something else.
00:37:44What do you call these?
00:37:46Uh, a rare treat.
00:37:48Our favorite dish.
00:37:50We call it, uh, souffled fungi.
00:37:53What?
00:37:54Mushroom, schlocker.
00:37:56Oh, mushrooms.
00:37:58Yes, a real staple.
00:38:00They grow profusely on the ground.
00:38:03And, uh, did Ralph...
00:38:06Oh, no, no.
00:38:08Virginia provided these.
00:38:10You see, she has an uncanny knack
00:38:12for picking only the, uh,
00:38:15non-poisonous one.
00:38:19Come on, schlocker, let's not hog this stuff.
00:38:25There you go.
00:38:29Thank you, Uncle Peter.
00:38:33Thank you, Uncle Peter.
00:38:35Hey, schlocker, you certainly can't say they're not polite.
00:38:45Oh, Miss Howe,
00:38:47if you don't feel up to the heavy affair,
00:38:49perhaps you'd like to try some of our fresh garden green?
00:38:52Yeah, Emily, here.
00:38:54Try the salad.
00:38:57Uh...
00:38:59Allow me.
00:39:04This thing isn't dressed.
00:39:14Isn't Ralph a vegetarian, too?
00:39:16Oh, yes.
00:39:18But Ralph's allowed to eat anything that he catches.
00:39:22No.
00:39:24No.
00:39:40Emily, this is very good.
00:39:43You don't know what you're missing.
00:39:45As I told you, our diet is very austere.
00:39:48But it's most healthful.
00:39:50You know, that's great. I think everybody ought to eat like that.
00:39:53Oh, we have our delicacies, too.
00:39:55But they're not in season right now.
00:40:02Oh, no, no, sir.
00:40:04You wouldn't want any of that.
00:40:09Oh, no. I guess not.
00:40:24What do you think about spending the night now, Emily?
00:40:28You couldn't drag me away, Peter.
00:40:31Good show, my dear. I'm with you.
00:40:34Oh, it's like I told you, sir. It's absolutely...
00:40:37Oh, there's nothing more to say, Bruno.
00:40:39Now, now, let's make things easy on yourself.
00:40:42We want to be fair.
00:40:44The sisters can move in together,
00:40:46and you and, um, Ralph.
00:40:49Well, uh, we might do that.
00:40:52Oh, no, no, it's quite impossible.
00:40:54It's too dangerous.
00:40:56You see, this is an old building.
00:40:59The wood is rotten.
00:41:01You'd have to know your way about in the dark.
00:41:04Nonsense.
00:41:06The next thing you'll tell us, it's haunted.
00:41:08Oh, no, nothing like that.
00:41:11He means they're vampires.
00:41:13Oh, yes, and werewolves.
00:41:15Are you a horror film fan, Miss Morse?
00:41:18Oh, yes, I love it.
00:41:20Dracula, Frankenstein.
00:41:22And the mummy?
00:41:23Oh, the mummy. I love the mummy.
00:41:26The way he walks.
00:41:27Step, scrape.
00:41:29Step, scrape.
00:41:31Oh, and the wolfman.
00:41:35There's going to be a full moon tonight.
00:41:51Uh, uh, Mr. Schlocker, I mean, uh,
00:41:54if you don't need me anymore tonight,
00:41:56I could just as well stay in down at...
00:41:59There's an inn in the village.
00:42:01Um, as I see it, there are only two rooms anyway.
00:42:05Uh, Peter, if you took the car,
00:42:07do you think you could find lodgings for Miss Morse?
00:42:10Uh, no, I don't think so.
00:42:12I'm afraid I can't.
00:42:14I'm afraid I can't.
00:42:16I'm afraid I can't.
00:42:18Do you think you could find lodgings for Miss Morse?
00:42:21Yeah, I saw a motel coming in, yeah.
00:42:23Fine, fine. Good idea.
00:42:26Just be sure you have her back on time, young man.
00:42:29Busy day ahead, you know.
00:42:30Don't worry.
00:42:31Thank you, Mr. Howe.
00:42:33You're welcome.
00:42:36Children, some of our guests are going to stay the night.
00:42:39Would you come help me prepare the rooms?
00:42:42Yes, Bruno.
00:42:45Ah! Spider!
00:42:51Got it.
00:42:53I hate spiders.
00:42:57We have lots of spiders.
00:43:02Do you like spiders, Mr. Howe?
00:43:04Oh, sure, Virginia. I love spiders.
00:43:07Tell you, would you like to play spider with me?
00:43:11Virginia, sure.
00:43:13Sure, I'll play spider with you.
00:43:16Maybe tomorrow.
00:43:18I'm sorry, Mr. Howe, that we couldn't accommodate everyone.
00:43:21But I'll be looking forward to seeing you tomorrow.
00:43:23Hey, me too, Bruno.
00:43:25Thank you very much.
00:43:29Good night, kids.
00:43:31Uh, well, Miss Morse, we should be getting ready to start.
00:43:34I'd like that very much, Mr. Howe.
00:43:44Hey.
00:43:48This is the phoniest setup I've ever seen.
00:43:56There is something terribly wrong here.
00:43:59And I intend to find out exactly what it is.
00:44:07There we go.
00:44:10Say, it's still early, Miss Morse.
00:44:12Perhaps you'd like to have a drink at that inn in the village that Bruno mentioned?
00:44:17I'd like that very much, Mr. Howe.
00:44:19Oh, and maybe a sandwich, if you don't mind.
00:44:22Virginia.
00:44:26Virginia.
00:44:28Shh.
00:44:31Are you going to give Daddy good night?
00:44:33Mm-hmm.
00:44:35Elizabeth, are you going to give Daddy good night?
00:44:39I'm going to give him a good night's sleep.
00:44:41Good night, Virginia.
00:44:43Good night, Mr. Howe.
00:44:45Good night, Mr. Howe.
00:44:47Good night, Mr. Howe.
00:44:49Good night, Mr. Howe.
00:44:51Are you scared?
00:44:54Scared of what?
00:44:56You know, those people.
00:45:00I hate them.
00:45:02You're not supposed to hate.
00:45:04You should, too.
00:45:06They don't like spiders.
00:45:08I know.
00:45:12That little man looks just like a big, fat bug, doesn't he?
00:45:19Yes, he does.
00:45:25You know what I'd like to do?
00:45:31Do really lots of fun things, spider.
00:45:34Virginia, you bet.
00:45:49I'm coming to tuck you in, Daddy.
00:45:59Nighty-night, Daddy.
00:46:18Good night.
00:46:48Good night.
00:47:18Good night.

00:55:30Good night.
00:55:32Good night.
00:55:34Good night.
00:55:36Good night.
00:55:38Good night.
00:55:40This has gone quite far enough.
00:55:42Ladies.
00:55:46Beyond the bounds of
00:55:48prudence
00:55:50and good taste.
00:55:58I don't know what you people are up to here.
00:56:00But
00:56:04I'm going to have to call in the authorities.
00:56:06Yes.
00:56:08There are laws.
00:56:12Criminal laws.
00:56:16Kill him!
00:56:18Kill him!
00:56:20No, this isn't right.
00:56:22There are proper procedures.
00:56:26These things can be litigated.
00:56:28Kill him!
00:56:36Kill him!
00:57:06Kill him!
00:57:36And now we can put him right back in his own bed.
00:57:38And Bruno will never even have to know.
00:57:42Please don't hate me.
00:57:44I didn't mean to do it.
00:57:46She made me do it.
00:57:48She made me do it, Bruno.
00:57:50Well, he was spying on us.
00:57:54Well, he was going to tell.
00:57:56He was going to tell on us, Bruno.
00:58:00Yes.
00:58:02Yes.
00:58:04Yes, Elizabeth.
00:58:06He was going to tell.
00:58:10Now don't you worry,
00:58:12Virginia.
00:58:14I'm not going to hate you.
00:58:18I knew this was coming someday.
00:58:22But it's so soon.
00:58:24And you really
00:58:26and truly don't hate me?
00:58:30I promised your daddy I'd
00:58:32never, never hate you.
00:58:34You did?
00:58:36You ought to hate him.
00:58:38Elizabeth,
00:58:40I told you it isn't nice
00:58:42to hate.
00:58:44Children,
00:58:46I've got something I want to tell you
00:58:48and I want you to
00:58:50listen very, very
00:58:52carefully.
00:58:56A long, long time ago
00:58:58I promised
00:59:00your daddy that
00:59:02I'd take care of you and Ralph forever
00:59:04and ever.
00:59:06And then
00:59:08came this
00:59:10Mr. Schlocker.
00:59:12He was a nasty, mean
00:59:14man.
00:59:16He wanted to take you away where
00:59:18old Bruno would never see you
00:59:20again.
00:59:22But
00:59:26you hurt
00:59:28Mr. Schlocker
00:59:30and he can't do that now.
00:59:34But soon there'll be more
00:59:36Mr. Schlockers and they'll be
00:59:38nastier and meaner than he was
00:59:40and
00:59:42you won't be able to hurt
00:59:44all them because
00:59:46there'll be too many
00:59:48of them.
00:59:50They can't take me away from you, Bruno.
00:59:52They can't make me
00:59:54go away.
00:59:56You won't let them, will you, Bruno?
01:00:00I promised your daddy I wouldn't.
01:00:02I knew you
01:00:04wouldn't, Bruno.
01:00:06I'm not afraid.
01:00:10Well,
01:00:12we didn't have much
01:00:14time anyway.
01:00:16Pretty soon Ralph, he'll be
01:00:18ready to join
01:00:20Uncle Ned and Aunt Clara.
01:00:22And
01:00:24you.
01:00:26We want to stay here
01:00:28forever and ever, Bruno.
01:00:30With you and Ralph
01:00:32and Uncle Ned.
01:00:36We will.
01:00:38I promise.
01:00:40Forever and ever. We will.
01:00:42You know,
01:00:44I know
01:00:46where there's a nice new toy
01:00:48that'll do
01:00:50a wonderful thing.
01:00:52A toy?
01:00:54Yes. And
01:00:56you can stay up late just to
01:00:58see it. Can we?
01:01:00Uh-huh. Now,
01:01:02I have to go a little ways
01:01:04to get it. But it'll only
01:01:06take me a little while.
01:01:08Please don't go away, Bruno.
01:01:10I'm scared.
01:01:12It won't take but a few minutes.
01:01:14And I'll be back.
01:01:16Now, Elizabeth,
01:01:18I expect you to
01:01:20take care of your brother and
01:01:22sister and see that they don't get in any
01:01:24trouble. Will you do that?
01:01:26I will,
01:01:28Bruno.
01:01:30Uh...
01:01:32Uh...
01:01:34Uh...
01:01:36Uh...
01:01:38Uh...
01:01:40Uh...
01:01:42Uh...
01:01:44Uh...
01:01:46Uh...
01:01:48It's gonna hurt.
01:02:00It's gonna hurt.
01:02:20Schlocker!
01:02:22Schlocker!
01:02:24Schlocker!
01:02:26Schlocker!
01:02:28Schlocker!
01:02:34Chateau!
01:02:46Catch her! Catch her!
01:02:48Don't let her get away!
01:02:54Help!
01:02:56Help! Catch her!
01:03:26Help!
01:03:48Anemone!
01:03:52Anemone!
01:03:56Go!
01:04:20And now, bye!
01:04:23There he goes!
01:04:25Get him! Get him!
01:04:27There!
01:04:51Hey, Liz!
01:04:54Hey.
01:04:56Are you really a wolf fan, a wolf man fan, Ann?
01:05:01Oh, yes.
01:05:03I think that's how every man should be.
01:05:05Like a wild beast.
01:05:16No vacancy again.
01:05:18That's the last one, Ann.
01:05:20There isn't another town for 50 miles.
01:05:23I guess we shouldn't have spent all that time at the village inn.
01:05:27I didn't realize how late it was getting.
01:05:29You lose count, they keep taking away the glasses.
01:05:32What was that?
01:05:33I know, but I remember exactly how many.
01:05:36Listen, there's nothing we can do except go back and spend the night with Emily and Schlocker.
01:05:50Cut it.
01:05:51Cut it.
01:06:20Shh.
01:06:47Yeah.
01:06:49Spiders aren't supposed to eat other spiders.
01:06:52Cannibal spiders do.
01:07:15Bruno! Bruno!
01:07:18He doesn't sound like Bruno.
01:07:21Oh, no, it's Uncle Peter and that pretty lady.
01:07:24They've come back.
01:07:26Virginia, you mustn't hurt anyone else.
01:07:29Bruno will really hate you.
01:07:31He will not.
01:07:33Anyway, I like Uncle Peter.
01:07:35He's not like that bad man.
01:07:38All the same, they'll tell on us.
01:07:40Would they?
01:07:43Would they tell?
01:07:45Of course they'll tell.
01:07:47Bruno said there'd be others, didn't he?
01:07:51They're coming. What'll we do?
01:07:56We'll have to make a plan.
01:08:06Somebody's up and about.
01:08:08Good.
01:08:09I hope it's not that Ralph.
01:08:11Oh, Ralph's just a big kid.
01:08:13Do you really think so?
01:08:15Sure.
01:08:17Let's go.
01:08:39Hi, kid.
01:08:41Uh, hey, it looks as if Miss Morserau
01:08:43is going to have to spend the night here after all.
01:08:46The end, as they say.
01:08:48Good evening, Uncle Peter.
01:08:52Uh-huh.
01:08:57Uh, is Mr. Bruno about?
01:09:00No, no, he's away.
01:09:02Won't you come in?
01:09:04Yes, do come in.
01:09:07Huh?
01:09:09How about Aunt Emily? Is she around?
01:09:16Oh, shh, shh.
01:09:19Shh, there's really no need to disturb anyone.
01:09:23All righty.
01:09:24When does Mr. Bruno get back?
01:09:26Shh, he'll be along by and by.
01:09:29Now, Uncle Peter, you just make yourself right at home.
01:09:33Uh, Virginia, dear,
01:09:35you may entertain Uncle Peter
01:09:37while I take care of the pretty lady.
01:09:41Uh...
01:09:42Uh, it's all right.
01:09:45I'm sure Elizabeth, uh, knows what to do.
01:09:50Well, if you really think so.
01:09:52Sure.
01:09:53Listen, Emily is very easy to get along with
01:09:56when she's asleep.
01:09:57Uh, well, that won't be necessary,
01:10:00and we'll have Daddy's room.
01:10:03It's really very nice.
01:10:06There you go. See?
01:10:09Thank you, Elizabeth.
01:10:10You're really very kind.
01:10:14Well, good night.
01:10:18Yeah.
01:10:20See you in the morning?
01:10:22Mm-hmm.
01:10:23It's awfully nice.
01:10:25This way, pretty lady.
01:10:32I'm glad you came back.
01:10:36I like you.
01:10:44I like you, too.
01:10:56You're a nice lady.
01:10:58I liked you right away.
01:11:00You're not like those others.
01:11:02Well, Virginia likes you, too.
01:11:04And Ralph?
01:11:05We all like you.
01:11:07And Uncle Peter, too.
01:11:13You'd never tell.
01:11:16No matter what Bruno says.
01:11:22You'd never tell.
01:11:24I know you wouldn't.
01:11:27I like you, pretty lady.
01:11:30Pretty lady.
01:11:43Pretty lady.
01:12:06And the big black spider goes round and round
01:12:10and wraps the bug all up in her spiderweb.
01:12:15Virginia, what happens
01:12:18when the spider gets the bug all wrapped up in a web?
01:12:22Ah-ha. I won't tell.
01:12:26All right.
01:12:28How long's it take to play this game?
01:12:31Oh, we're almost done.
01:12:33All right.
01:12:36There now.
01:12:39Hey.
01:12:43Virginia?
01:12:52Hey, what's the spider do now?
01:12:55What?
01:12:56Oh, yes.
01:12:58Now the spider does a little dance.
01:13:03She has to tease it.
01:13:08And make him wonder
01:13:11so that his juice will taste better.
01:13:17Virginia, I think we'd better play another game.
01:13:21Uncle Peter, do you like that pretty lady?
01:13:26Yes. Yes, I do.
01:13:39Do you like me?
01:13:46When does Mr. Bruno come back?
01:13:49Bruno won't hate me. He promised.
01:13:54Spiders like bugs.
01:13:58They taste good.
01:14:03But I guess bugs don't like spiders very much.
01:14:07I like spiders.
01:14:09I like spiders.
01:14:11I do, too.
01:14:13Well...
01:14:17I guess I have to sting you now.
01:14:20You have to what?
01:14:24Uh, Virginia, what about Mr. Schlocker?
01:14:27Mr. Schlocker?
01:14:29Hey, Schlocker!
01:14:31Sting!
01:14:38Well, I have to go away for a minute.
01:14:46But I'll be right back.
01:14:54Don't go away, bug.
01:15:05What are we going to do with her? Ralph can't let go.
01:15:13What do you mean, what are we going to do with her?
01:15:16Don't you know? You made this plan.
01:15:18But I didn't have enough time to finish it.
01:15:23She wiggles just like a big squiggly bug in a spider web.
01:15:34Uncle Ned could make her quiet.
01:15:37No, Bruno would be very mad.
01:15:41Anyway, Ralph likes her, see?
01:15:45We mustn't hurt her.
01:15:48Just make her quiet.
01:15:55Now, Spider is very clever.
01:16:00She very cleverly drains the vital juices from the bug's body.
01:16:11And that makes the bug stop squiggling.
01:16:16Does that make her stop squiggling?
01:16:23Help me find something sharp.
01:16:47There it is.
01:17:11Ralph?
01:17:15Hold her.
01:17:20How much did we let run out?
01:17:23Just enough to make her quiet.
01:17:25Then Ralph can play with her better.
01:17:46That's it.
01:17:51Ralph?
01:17:53Emily?
01:17:57Ralph?
01:17:59No, no, Emily, I'm in here.
01:18:01Me.
01:18:02Oh, you bet. For heaven's sake, give me a hand.
01:18:05That little fiend tied me up.
01:18:15Help me.
01:18:20I'm coming, hold on.
01:18:45Help me.
01:19:15Help me.
01:19:46Children.
01:19:54That lady hurt Ralph.
01:19:57Ralph will be all well, very soon.
01:20:01I brought that wonderful surprise I promised you.
01:20:11Larry C., Larry C., what is it?
01:20:14This is a secret surprise.
01:20:45Oh, sir.
01:20:47I don't know how you got yourself into this predicament,
01:20:50but I suggest that you leave the premises as quickly as possible.
01:20:54Where's Ann?
01:20:56Ann, where's Ann?
01:21:02Ralph.
01:21:06Ralph.
01:21:13If I were you, I'd hurry, sir.
01:21:16I'm hurrying, I'm hurrying.
01:21:28What's it going to do, Bruno?
01:21:30Well, it's going to make a big flash and go bang.
01:21:35Oh, boy.
01:21:43Lookie.
01:21:46Uncle Ned.
01:21:53Hello.
01:22:00THE END
