00:05:10I don't know the man.
00:05:14I'll tell him to write me for an appointment.
00:05:16Oh, wait a minute, Bob.
00:05:17I've got a few minutes.
00:05:18Let him come in.
00:05:20Am I dressing gowns yet?
00:05:27So I have the pleasure of addressing Mr. Anthony Lawrence.
00:05:30That's right, Doctor.
00:05:31What's on your mind?
00:05:31I should like to apologize to this charming young lady for my seeming rudeness.
00:05:37Well, I don't know what you're talking about, but go ahead.
00:05:39This is my daughter Patricia, Dr. Markov.
00:05:43Please forgive me, young lady, for staring so rudely at you, but I really could not help it.
00:05:49Seeing you tonight was quite a shock because...
00:05:53Well, because you are the living image of my wife, Lenore, as she looked at the time we were married.
00:05:59She was taken away from me under very tragic circumstances.
00:06:04I understand.
00:06:05I accept your apology.
00:06:09This will always remain an unforgettable moment in my life.
00:06:28Auf Wiedersehen.
00:06:29It's so nice to have met you.
00:06:32I always appreciate the privilege of meeting a great artiste.
00:06:35Thank you, Doctor.
00:06:36Good night.
00:06:37Good night, sir.
00:06:48Funny people, these foreigners.
00:06:49Do you suppose Pat really resembles his dear departed, or...
00:06:53Or is right.
00:06:53That cock and bull story was old in Caesar's day.
00:06:56The nerve of the guy.
00:06:57My dear boy, you've got to get used to other men admiring Pat.
00:07:01She's a very beautiful girl.
00:07:02There's a difference between admiring and ogling.
00:07:05By the way, he stared at me, he gave me the jitters.
00:07:07You'll find him in the next box, fishy stare and all.
00:07:10Oh, no, I won't.
00:07:11We're going to hear the rest of this concert from backstage.
00:07:13Then I'll have to get your rap.
00:07:14You left it in the box.
00:07:15No, please do.
00:07:16I'll wait for you here.
00:07:18Well, Judd, five minutes.
00:07:19We'd better get ready.
00:07:20Okay.
00:07:20It seems that the great Dr. Markov failed to make a fabled impression.
00:07:40Temporarily, yes.
00:07:41But there will be many opportunities in the future.
00:07:43Besides, the tall man was not averse to accepting a little gratuity
00:07:48and gave me all the information I needed.
00:07:53Igor, I've risked my life for you.
00:07:56I've kept you secret all these years.
00:07:59Does all this mean nothing to you?
00:08:01Don't I mean anything to you?
00:08:03Because of your knowledge of my work, I need you as an assistant.
00:08:07You have never meant anything more and you never shall.
00:08:10Keep that in mind.
00:08:10Keep that in mind.
00:08:20Flowers for Miss Lawrence.
00:08:30More flowers for your flowers.
00:08:53Flowers, flowers, flowers.
00:08:55Morning, noon, and night.
00:08:56The man must be crazy.
00:08:59Keeps on.
00:08:59I'll hate the sight of him.
00:09:01Have William take those to the children's hospital.
00:09:03Right away, Miss.
00:09:03Come in.
00:09:30Dad, you've just got to make Dr. Markov stop pestering me.
00:09:35First it was flowers three times a day and now he's sending notes with him.
00:09:38Now look, I can't stand any more of this.
00:09:41You've just got to make him let me alone.
00:09:44Well, the man must be out of his mind.
00:09:46I never heard of such presumption.
00:09:47Now don't you get upset about it, Pat.
00:09:49I'll take care of Dr. Markov.
00:09:51You just forget about him and let me handle this.
00:09:53What are you going to do, Dad?
00:09:54I'm going to call on our friend and tell him very plainly that his attentions to you are unwelcome
00:09:59and instruct him immediately.
00:10:01You'll be careful, won't you?
00:10:03Careful?
00:10:03What do you mean?
00:10:04Well, you'll probably laugh at me, but when you call on Dr. Markov, will you take Bob with you?
00:10:09Pat, I can take care of myself.
00:10:11You said yourself he was out of his mind.
00:10:14Did you notice his eyes at night in your dressing room?
00:10:17They seem to stare right through me.
00:10:19You've been listening to too many horror radio programs lately.
00:10:23What you need is a good workout on the badminton course.
00:10:26Come on, run along.
00:10:27Fear not, fair lady.
00:10:28I shall bear the rectile in his den.
00:10:31I shall bear the rectile in his den.
00:11:01Mr. Anthony Lawrence is here to see you, Doctor.
00:11:03I will see him in a few moments.
00:11:06Oh, and Maxine, you had better relieve me.
00:11:08I'm making a new batch of X-54 and it requires constant watching.
00:11:13I'll be right in, Doctor.
00:11:16The Doctor will see you in a few minutes, sir.
00:11:18Won't you be seated?
00:11:49I'll be right back.
00:12:19I'll be right back.
00:12:49I wish I'd get rid of that brute.
00:13:02He's always hated me and I'm deathly afraid of him.
00:13:05Oh, don't be a fool.
00:13:07He's perfectly safe in that cage.
00:13:09How could he harm you?
00:13:11It is silly.
00:13:12Besides, he's very essential to my work.
00:13:16Now, when that concentrated pituitary boils dry, turn off all the burners.
00:13:25Add some elixir.
00:13:26Place it in four cc ampules and refrigerate them.
00:13:30Yes, Doctor.
00:13:31Watch it closely.
00:13:32See that it continues to boil, but very slowly.
00:13:36Now I must go and talk to Mr. Lawrence.
00:13:37I cannot leave him waiting any longer.
00:13:39Okay.
00:13:39Oh, Mr. Larris, nice to see you again.
00:14:03This isn't a professional call, Mr. Markov.
00:14:06I've come here on a purely personal matter.
00:14:08Oh, well, in that case, you'd better come into my private office.
00:14:12Thanks.
00:14:17Now, won't you sit down?
00:14:19I'll remain standing, if you don't mind.
00:14:20Oh, as you wish.
00:14:21I'll get to the point very quickly, Dr. Markov.
00:14:24I've come here in regard to my daughter, Patricia.
00:14:26Ah, yes, a lovely young woman.
00:14:28Enough beside the point.
00:14:29She doesn't welcome your attentions.
00:14:31I'm forced to ask you to stop annoying her.
00:14:33I'm afraid you are being very insulting.
00:14:35Your persistence has left me no other choice.
00:14:38I've already explained my deep interest in your death.
00:14:41Perhaps you thought I was lying.
00:14:48Would you look at this picture?
00:14:49What if there is a resemblance?
00:14:58That doesn't give you the privilege of annoying her?
00:15:01But I am going to marry her.
00:15:04No.
00:15:07I'm amazed that you'll come seek.
00:15:09I'm warning you, Dr. Markov.
00:15:11Unless you stop annoying my daughter, I shall call the police.
00:15:14Stop not so fast.
00:15:14I'm telling you, Dr. Markov is calling me.
00:15:15I'm following you.
00:15:15I'm telling you.
00:15:15I'm telling you, Dr. Markov.
00:15:16Are you trying to escape?
00:15:17Do you know what the police is doing?
00:15:18It's a awesome thing.
00:15:18You are telling me.
00:15:19I'm telling you, Dr. Markov is calling me.
00:15:19Dr. Markov is calling me.
00:15:24Oh, no.
00:15:28Oh, no.
00:15:32Oh, no.
00:15:33Oh, no.
00:15:41Oh, no.

00:18:56THE END
00:18:58THE END
00:19:06YES, DOCTOR
00:19:07MAXIME
00:19:08TEND DOWN
00:19:09ALL THE FLAMES
00:19:10TO ABOUT HALF
00:19:12THE CONSTANT
00:19:13IS NOWHERE
00:19:14NO DRY
00:19:15IT
00:19:16I KNOW
00:19:17BUT IT
00:19:18MUST BOIL
00:19:19VERY SLOWLY
00:19:20ALL RIGHT
00:19:22So you see, Mr. Lawrence, nobody having witnessed our encounter,
00:19:34I am perfectly willing to keep it a secret.
00:19:37Of course, if you desire to say something about it,
00:19:40I will admit that you've threatened me with violence,
00:19:43and I was forced to protect myself.
00:19:47It is simply a case of your word against mine.
00:19:52Is this Dr. Markov for evidence?
00:20:04Yes. Are you Miss Lawrence?
00:20:06Yes.
00:20:06Come in. The doctor is expecting you.
00:20:19Father!
00:20:21How do you feel?
00:20:22Pat, what are you doing here?
00:20:24Why, Dr. Markov said you were a little indisposed, so I came to drive you home.
00:20:28Are you feeling better now?
00:20:29Yes, yes, what's better?
00:20:30Are you well enough to start?
00:20:31Yes, of course.
00:20:37Steve, help Mr. Lawrence to his car.
00:20:39Miss Lawrence, may I have a word with you?
00:20:51Yes.
00:20:53I think that your father would bear watching.
00:20:56If you notice him developing certain symptoms of...
00:20:59Well, if you notice him acting strangely,
00:21:01I would strongly advise you persuade him to see his doctor.
00:21:05I'll remember.
00:21:07You're welcome.
00:21:08Have you finished?
00:21:34Yes, I did exactly as you told me.
00:21:36Why are you working on a formula X54?
00:21:39I thought you were satisfied with X53.
00:21:42Not quite.
00:21:43I have succeeded with X53 in arresting the disease acromegaly.
00:21:48But it will do no more than hold it in check.
00:21:51Come, I will show you.
00:21:53You will recall that after I injected him with the disease,
00:22:08it was allowed to proceed to this stage.
00:22:11Enlargement of the head, the feet, and so forth.
00:22:14But from the moment I gave him an injection of X53,
00:22:18there has been no change in the condition.
00:22:21Neither progressive nor retrogressive.
00:22:24I have every reason to hope that this new formula will prove to be a complete cure for the disease.
00:22:31Think what it will mean to have the power to control a dread disease like acromegaly.
00:22:36The only living man to have such power.
00:22:39And why are you the only living man to have such power?
00:22:43You know why.
00:22:45Yes, I do.
00:22:46And you're not even a doctor.
00:22:48You stole a name and laboratory note from the man you killed.
00:22:52He deserved to die.
00:22:53And his death made it possible for me to escape from Europe as real Dr. Markov.
00:22:58And reap the rewards earned by another man with years of work and study.
00:23:02What I took from him was small repayment for what he tried to take from me.
00:23:06The love of Lenore, my wife, the woman I worshipped.
00:23:09But his love cooled as I knew it would when he looked at her beautiful face
00:23:13and saw the ravages of the hideous disease acromegaly.
00:23:17Since you deliberately inoculated her with that dread...
00:23:19I did!
00:23:20I was determined that no other man should try to take her from me.
00:23:24I knew if she were no longer beautiful no one else would want her.
00:23:27Then I would have her all for myself.
00:23:29I...
00:23:32But she could not stand the sight of her own face.
00:23:37So she killed herself.
00:23:42This is incredible.
00:23:44Only a madman could do a thing like that.
00:23:46I'm getting out of here!
00:23:48I'm going to...
00:23:56You are going no place.
00:23:57You are going no place.
00:24:00You are going no place.
00:24:04Go to your room.
00:24:06Go to your room.
00:24:08Stay there.
00:24:23Good to have you back again with us, Bob.
00:24:25Glad to be back once more, Bob.
00:24:27It's no fun being away from you.
00:24:29I do wish you didn't have to spend so much time out of town.
00:24:32If I didn't, your father would probably get himself a new business manager.
00:24:35You know it's chiefly on his business, I'm always so much.
00:24:38I know.
00:24:40Bob, do you think you could book father for a series of summer concerts?
00:24:44Pat, what are you talking about?
00:24:46If you knew the heavy schedule I booked him for next season, you'd want him to have a good rest.
00:24:50I do, but he can't seem to rest.
00:24:53I don't know what's gotten into him.
00:24:55He seems to have so much energy.
00:24:57He just can't seem to work at all.
00:24:59Well, let's hope it keeps up.
00:25:01But it can't, Bob.
00:25:02Do you realize that he's up at six every morning?
00:25:05That he walks practically all day long?
00:25:08That I can't get him to go to bed at night?
00:25:10Why, sometimes I awaken at two or three in the morning.
00:25:14He's still playing his game.
00:25:16It's not normal when I get up at the end of the day.
00:25:18It's not normal when I get up at night.
00:25:20It's not normal when I get up at night.
00:25:22It's not normal when I get up at night.
00:25:22And VIP to meet up at night.
00:25:24It's never going to happen.
00:25:26I know it's no way too could have to go to bed at night.
00:25:30Something lucky for me...
00:25:39There might be a man at night...
00:25:40You too, Bob.
00:26:10Doesn't it look as if my fingers were thicker?
00:26:21Well, your hands are swollen.
00:26:22Well, the fingers are anyway.
00:26:24They feel awkward.
00:26:25When did you notice that?
00:26:27The past few days, I felt something coming on.
00:26:30My feet, too, seem in large.
00:26:31All my shoes feel tight.
00:26:33Do you suppose you've eaten something that poisons you?
00:26:35Oh, no, no.
00:26:36I'd know what if I had it.
00:26:37Well, he said if you felt bad, I should persuade you to see a doctor.
00:26:42Who said?
00:26:43Dr. Markov.
00:26:44Markov?
00:26:45When was that?
00:26:46That day you went to see him about a social matter.
00:26:50Oh, rubbish.
00:26:51Why should I see a doctor when I never felt better in my life?
00:26:53Because I want you to, Father.
00:26:56Promise me you'll see Dr. Adams at once.
00:26:59Let me call him now.
00:27:00Nonsense.
00:27:00There's nothing the matter with me, really.
00:27:03I'll tell you what I'll do.
00:27:04If this condition doesn't clear up by tomorrow,
00:27:06I'll drop in to see Dr. Adams just to put your mind at ease.
00:27:09But you won't go.
00:27:10You'll put it off.
00:27:11Why don't you let me call him now?
00:27:12Because it isn't urgent.
00:27:15Anyway, right now, I feel like going out for a walk.
00:27:18But you've been walking all day.
00:27:19I can't help it.
00:27:20I feel restless and full of energy.
00:27:26What do you make of it, Bob?
00:27:28Oh, perhaps some minor upset.
00:27:30But I would have him checked over by Dr. Adams.
00:27:35And how are you feeling today, Mr. Lawrence?
00:27:37Physically, extremely well.
00:27:39And your appetite?
00:27:41Still increasing.
00:27:43Mr. Lawrence,
00:27:44after studying all the results of your laboratory tests,
00:27:47x-rays,
00:27:48metabolism records,
00:27:50I have reached a conclusion.
00:27:52But not being satisfied with myosis alone,
00:27:55I called into consultation Dr. Kruger and Dr. Nalor,
00:27:58whose reputation, of course, you know.
00:28:00Yes, certainly.
00:28:02And they, without any hint from me,
00:28:03both came to the same conclusion.
00:28:06Acromegaly.
00:28:07Acromegaly?
00:28:08Yes.
00:28:09It's a very rare disease.
00:28:11Glandular in origin.
00:28:13Activated by a defective pituitary.
00:28:16Doctor,
00:28:17can't you tell me in plain English
00:28:19what's wrong with me
00:28:20and how serious it is?
00:28:21I'm trying to tell you.
00:28:23You have a glandular disorder.
00:28:25A disorder of the pituitary gland.
00:28:27A disease so rare that medical science
00:28:31knows little about it as yet.
00:28:34Is it fatal?
00:28:36Fatal?
00:28:37Well, not necessarily.
00:28:40It's a progressive disease.
00:28:42Enlarges the extremities.
00:28:44It's accompanied by an increasing amount of energy
00:28:47to a fabulous and dangerous degree.
00:28:50Is it curable?
00:28:51Mr. Lawrence,
00:28:54there is but one man, to my knowledge,
00:28:56who knows anything important about acromegaly.
00:28:59He's a specialist in glandular disorders.
00:29:02And I understand has devoted a great deal of research
00:29:04to this particular disease.
00:29:06I urgently suggest that you consult this man,
00:29:09who is in a position to do more for you
00:29:11than any person in the profession.
00:29:13Who is it?
00:29:14Dr. Igor Markov.
00:29:16Dr. Markov.
00:29:20Yes.
00:29:21Do you know him?
00:29:23Yes.
00:29:24Strange you didn't think to consult him.
00:29:27Well, I've just met him socially.
00:29:29I don't know him socially.
00:29:31But his name ranks among the top names in the profession.
00:29:34His reputation is international.
00:29:37So, he is, therefore,
00:29:39the man that you should see, Mr. Lawrence.
00:29:43I'd rather not see Dr. Markov.
00:29:46Isn't there anybody else I can consult?
00:29:49No.
00:29:50He's the only man I know that can help you.
00:29:53He has not seen fit as yet
00:29:54to give out his findings
00:29:56or his method of treatment to the profession.
00:29:58So, therefore,
00:30:00if you are to be helped,
00:30:01you must go to him.
00:30:03And there's nothing you can do for me, Dr. Adams?
00:30:06Frankly, Lawrence,
00:30:07nothing effective.
00:30:09Well, thank you for your...
00:30:13your frankness.
00:30:14You will see him.
00:30:18I'll think it over.
00:30:28Hello, Stackers.
00:30:29Miss Lawrence in?
00:30:29Well, how do you do, Mr. Blake?
00:30:31I tell Miss Lawrence you're here.
00:30:35Bob, darling,
00:30:36I'm so glad you're back.
00:30:37I've only been a win for a week.
00:30:45How are you, sweetheart?
00:30:46I'm so worried.
00:30:47About what?
00:30:48About Father.
00:30:49What's he been up to now?
00:30:51That's just it, Bob.
00:30:52I don't know.
00:30:53He's locked himself in his room for weeks.
00:30:55He hasn't allowed anybody in to see him.
00:30:58Stack takes his meals in to him,
00:30:59but he has to leave the tray in the music room.
00:31:02He says the door into the bedroom is locked
00:31:04and that Father won't come out
00:31:06until after he's left.
00:31:07Is he in there now?
00:31:08Yes,
00:31:09but the door from the new room
00:31:10into his suite is locked from the inside.
00:31:16Sounds in excellent form.
00:31:18He hasn't touched the piano in a week.
00:31:19He hasn't touched the piano in the night.
00:31:26I've been to him for a long time.
00:31:28He hasn't touched the piano in the new room.
00:31:29I've been to him for 10 years of since he was in the morning.
00:31:32I've been to my husband.
00:31:33He hasn't touched the piano in the evening.
00:31:43The one who has been to me today?
00:31:45I've been to him for so long.
00:31:47He hasn't touched the piano in the evening or the night.
00:31:49Take her out of here, please.
00:31:58Take her out of here, quick.
00:31:58Oh, Stark, have William bring my car down to the side entrance immediately and leave it there.
00:32:21I'll drive it myself.
00:32:23No.
00:32:28Darling.
00:32:37Easy, darling, you fainted.
00:32:40Bob, did you see what I saw?
00:32:43What are you talking about?
00:32:44Just his face, his head.
00:32:47It was so large.
00:32:48It's your imagination, darling.
00:32:50The lights in there were strange, that's all.
00:32:52No, Bob, no.
00:32:58Maxine, see who's in my waiting room.
00:33:08Maxine.
00:33:11Maxine, are you there?
00:33:15Maxine.
00:33:18Maxine.
00:33:20Maxine.
00:33:21Maxine.
00:33:21Maxine.
00:33:22Maxine.
00:33:23Maxine.
00:33:24Maxine.
00:33:25Maxine.
00:33:26Maxine.
00:33:27Maxine.
00:33:28Maxine.
00:33:29Maxine.
00:33:30Maxine.
00:33:31Maxine.
00:33:32Maxine.
00:33:33Maxine.
00:33:34Maxine.
00:33:35Maxine.
00:33:36Maxine.
00:33:37Maxine.
00:33:38Maxine.
00:33:39Maxine.
00:33:40Maxine.
00:33:41Maxine.
00:33:42Maxine.
00:33:43Maxine.
00:33:44Maxine.
00:33:45Maxine.
00:33:46Maxine.
00:33:47Maxine.
00:33:48Maxine.
00:33:49Maxine.
00:33:50Laurence.
00:33:53Yes, Markov.
00:33:56Weren't you expecting me?
00:34:00You knew I'd have to come to you sooner or later.
00:34:05To you, the one man with experience concerning the hideous disease of acromegaly.
00:34:14Oh, you had it cunningly worked out, Markov.
00:34:17So I would be forced to come to you, to you alone, for help.
00:34:24Then you would be in a position to dictate your own terms in exchange for that help.
00:34:32Terms which, no doubt, would involve my daughter, Matricia.
00:34:39Oh, you were clever, Markov.
00:34:42Exceedingly clever.
00:34:47As the only man with sufficient knowledge of the disease, not only to alleviate it, but to infect the person with it, you hold a decided advantage.
00:35:03So you see, Markov, I know you infected me with something that caused acromegaly.
00:35:11But how you made the disease develop so rapidly, when science has proven that it takes years to reach this stage.
00:35:18I do not know, but you did.
00:35:24And now, Markov, I've come to you, as you knew I must, to make terms.
00:35:32I've come to make terms.
00:35:34No, no, Lawrence.
00:35:35You overestimate my control of the disease.
00:35:38I've made an extensive study of it.
00:35:40Yes, that is true.
00:35:41But after all, I am only an apprentice.
00:35:43Yes, the devil's apprentice.
00:35:48Markov, you have set yourself up as a Frankenstein and created a monster.
00:35:53I am that monster.
00:35:56But if you remember, the monster destroyed the man who created him.
00:36:04That is what I'm going to do to you.
00:36:06I'm going to destroy you.
00:36:08No.
00:36:10Good work, Steve.
00:36:11Put him on a chair while I prepare an anesthetic.
00:36:17Herbie began this evening.
00:36:18But I must put my mind at rest.
00:36:20Can't you take my word for it, Pat?
00:36:22I'm sorry, Bob.
00:36:22In this case, I can't.
00:36:26It's locked.
00:36:26You see, he doesn't want to be disturbed.
00:36:28But I must see him.
00:36:29Oh, not tonight, Pat, please.
00:36:31In the morning, perhaps.
00:36:32I'll tell you what.
00:36:33I've got to see him in the morning on some business.
00:36:35And as soon as I've finished, I'll send for you.
00:36:36How's that?
00:36:37Well, make it early.
00:36:39I can't have this hanging over my head.
00:36:41I know, dear.
00:36:42And I'll make it just as early as I can.
00:36:44Now, how about getting some rest for yourself?
00:36:46You look exhausted.
00:36:47Oh, I suppose I do, but I can't help it.
00:36:50You look lovely to me, dear.
00:36:52But you do need rest.
00:36:54Now run along.
00:36:57Sleep well.
00:36:58I'll try.
00:36:59Good night.
00:37:00Good night.
00:37:00Good night.
00:37:00Good night.
00:37:01Good night.
00:37:01Good night.
00:37:01Good night.
00:37:03Good night.
00:37:05Good night.
00:37:09Good night.
00:37:12Oh, Stack.
00:37:17Stack, have you got a key to the music room?
00:37:19Why, no, sir.
00:37:19Why?
00:37:20Well, it's locked, and I wanted to see Mr. Lawrence.
00:37:22I'm sorry, sir, but he's gone out.
00:37:24Out?
00:37:24Oh, yes, sir.
00:37:25About a half an hour ago, he had his car brought around and then he's missed William.
00:37:29Where did he go?
00:37:29Do you know?
00:37:30Not the slightest idea, sir.
00:37:31I didn't see him, but William said he was all muffled up.
00:37:34Oh.
00:37:36Stack, I wish you'd ring me at home when he comes in.
00:37:39Very good, sir.
00:37:39And shall I wait up for him, sir?
00:37:41Well, no.
00:37:42If he comes in soon, you might ring me.
00:37:44Otherwise, go to bed.
00:37:44I'll see him in the morning.
00:37:45Very good, sir.
00:37:46Good night, Stack.
00:37:47Good night, Mr. Blake.
00:37:48Good night.
00:37:48I'll put him in the room after surgery in the east wing.
00:38:12How could you be so inhuman as to infect him with that disease in Ord-Baden for his daughter?
00:38:18Who gave you that idea?
00:38:23You left the dictograph open.
00:38:25I heard every word that was said.
00:38:27Forget what you heard.
00:38:28It does not concern you.
00:38:30I'll not forget.
00:38:31If you don't give up that insane idea of marrying Patricia Lawrence, I'll tell the truth about you.
00:38:36You would not dare.
00:38:37Oh, yes, I would.
00:38:39Does this mean that I've completely lost your loyalty?
00:38:44You speak of loyalty.
00:38:46You don't even know the meaning of the word.
00:38:48You seem to forget all the things I've done for you.
00:38:51I've ingressed my life for you, hoping that you might realize how much I love you.
00:38:54That someday you might return that love.
00:38:56But no.
00:38:57All I meant for you was just someone to help you attain your own selfish aims.
00:39:02I'm tired of it.
00:39:04I can't stand it any longer.
00:39:05Do you hear me?
00:39:06I can't stand it.
00:39:08I'll never let you marry that girl.
00:39:10Never.
00:39:10Never, never, never, never.
00:39:12Maxine.
00:39:20You heard nothing.
00:39:23You heard nothing.
00:39:25You heard nothing.
00:39:26I'll go to your work.
00:39:29I'll go to your work.
00:39:29I'm going to try.
00:49:25When did he go?
00:49:55I found it advisable to keep him here for observation.
00:50:25Oh, I didn't know you.
00:51:25Remember that I am...
00:51:55We shall see about that.
00:55:55Your father.
00:57:25And, uh...
00:58:25Father, speak to me.
00:59:25My wife.
