00:22:39telephone service this is samuel yes hello um i'd like to report the theft to one of your
00:22:47telephone receivers the southbound platform of the museum subway station museum station
00:22:52that's right i'll report it thank you well you're sure welcome very grateful sir bye
00:23:09he did you're kidding no you should have seen his face
00:23:39so
00:24:09I'm sorry. There's lots of money that will come back tomorrow.
00:24:39Somebody really did a number.
00:24:55Clean as a whistle. Bolt cutters.
00:24:59Second one they zapped down here this month?
00:25:03Yeah. Bolt cutters again? No.
00:25:05You wouldn't hardly believe it. Some turkey must have taken a plane through her to the receiver.
00:25:11Just the receiver, huh?
00:25:13Yeah. There wasn't even a mark on the box there. Don't hardly make sense.
00:25:17Could it have been the voltage? Maybe something in the electroacoustic transducer.
00:25:21Some kind of phone freak?
00:25:23Gym teacher. You know, basketball or phys ed.
00:25:27White shadow.
00:25:29How about that? Maybe a voltage malfunction.
00:25:33Nah. There's only about 40 volts going through there when you're talking.
00:25:37About 100 when it actually rings. Never enough amps to melt them all.
00:25:41Melt them all? You mean it's happened more than once?
00:25:44Oh, yeah. We got a couple others down at the lab there.
00:25:47Like some hot dog must have taken a look at his foam bill and brought himself a blowtorch.
00:25:52Good night, Connie.
00:26:14Bye.
00:26:18Bye.
00:26:20Hang on just a sec. Hang on.
00:26:44Hi. Sorry about that.
00:27:00You don't know what it's like to be kept waiting.
00:27:03Hey, are you weird?
00:27:05I don't know what it's like to be kept waiting for him.
00:27:15I don't know what it's like to be at all.
00:27:19Ahhhhhhh!
00:27:32Sounds pretty off the wall to me. I mean, a telephone killing people?
00:27:35If a red dye and a maraschina cherry can kill you, why not a telephone?
00:27:40You don't eat telephones.
00:27:43Besides, the police would know about something that wild, wouldn't they?
00:27:46Oh.
00:27:48Oh, I forgot.
00:27:50You think that the police are part of the cover-up.
00:27:53And I forgot.
00:27:55You work for them.
00:27:59Must be real pain in the ass going through life thinking that there's a water gate behind every closed door.
00:28:04It's worse when you find out there really is.
00:28:07Look, they want a mural. They give me free access to anything that I want.
00:28:12Photographs, diagrams, blueprints, tours of labs.
00:28:17It's all there for the asking.
00:28:22That sound like a conspiracy to you?
00:28:23It suits you.
00:28:44I think I'll grab a cab.
00:28:45We could share it.
00:28:46Different directions.
00:28:51Telephone!
00:28:53Your hometown's tracked you down.
00:28:55Who?
00:28:57Your local chief of police.
00:28:59Accumulated parking tickets.
00:29:00Hi, Tom. What'd you find?
00:29:01This mirror, Detective 69th Precinct.
00:29:02That's right.
00:29:03Got a hold of his record.
00:29:04Yeah.
00:29:05He's the son of a bitch involved in that Kaminsky case, you remember?
00:29:06That was mirror.
00:29:07Damn near cost him his job.
00:29:08Big investigation.
00:29:09That's right.
00:29:10You're kidding.
00:29:11So you're gonna tangle with him?
00:29:12Yeah.
00:29:13Want to hear more?
00:29:14Yeah.
00:29:1532 indictments, 12 convictions.
00:29:16How many?
00:29:1712.
00:29:1812.
00:29:19Kaminsky, that's the big one.
00:29:20A couple of years ago.
00:29:21What year?
00:29:2278.
00:29:23I'll get back to you with more, okay?
00:29:24Oh, that's fantastic.
00:29:25I'm not sure what you're doing.
00:29:26You're not sure what you're doing.
00:29:27That's right.
00:29:28No, no.
00:29:29No, no.
00:29:30No.
00:29:31No.
00:29:32No.
00:29:33No.
00:29:34No.
00:29:35No.
00:29:36No.
00:29:37No.
00:29:38No.
00:29:39No.
00:29:40No.
00:29:41No.
00:29:42No.
00:29:43No.
00:29:44No.
00:29:45No.
00:29:46No.
00:29:47No.
00:29:48No.
00:29:49No.
00:29:50No.
00:29:51Any time. Just holler.
00:29:53Thanks, Tom. You're a prince.
00:29:54Wait for my call.
00:29:55I'll do that.
00:29:56Take care of yourself.
00:29:57Thanks again. Take it easy, yeah.
00:29:58So long.
00:30:01Getting the whole gang in on this one, huh?
00:30:04Local police, undergrad coeds, maybe even the high school band.
00:30:09Just updating my research.
00:30:11Nothing wrong with that so long as you can get published.
00:30:14Who knows?
00:30:16I do.
00:30:17This gumshoe routine, this child's play.
00:30:20Goddammit, Nat, you're an educator.
00:30:23Don't lose sight of your priorities.
00:30:26I've told you nothing but facts, Stanley.
00:30:29Least you can do is acknowledge that they don't add up.
00:30:32They don't fit into this cheap little paperback plot you're cooking up.
00:30:36These are responsible people you're talking about.
00:30:39You know them?
00:30:41I'm their environmental consultant.
00:30:46You really are inside the fence.
00:30:48Yes, Nat, and I've earned it.
00:30:51These people have funds that could give us a major breakthrough.
00:30:54If there was anything going on, I'd be the first to know about it.
00:30:57Wrong, Stanley.
00:30:59We're usually the last.
00:31:03Mirror.
00:31:04Who do I used to get rid of you?
00:31:05A stick, a spray, or a roll-on?
00:31:06Look, you son of a bitch.
00:31:07You're a public servant, not a stand-up comic.
00:31:08I've come to you for help.
00:31:09Bridger, if I was an L.A. cop, I'd shoot you right here in the elevator.
00:31:10Since I'm not, I'm gonna let you talk before I shoot you.
00:31:12One, I want you to call the coroner.
00:31:13Cardiac arrest is a result of acute respiratory failure.
00:31:14That's what the coroner report says.
00:31:15You know, some people have got a memory for baseball statistics.
00:31:16Me, I memorize COD, cause of death.
00:31:17And find out if those symptoms are consistent with all of us.
00:31:18And find out if those symptoms are consistent with all of us.
00:31:19That's what the coroner report says.
00:31:20You know, some people have got a memory for baseball statistics.
00:31:21Me, I memorize COD, cause of death.
00:31:22And find out if those symptoms are consistent with electric shock.
00:31:25Two, I want you to get a rip.
00:31:26Subpoena the paperwork of the lineman who repaired the telephone at the museum station.
00:31:29Three, check through your jackets and see if there have been any similar things.
00:31:31I'm going to call you for help.
00:31:32Bridger, if I was an L.A. cop, I'd shoot you right here in the elevator.
00:31:35Since I'm not, I'm gonna let you talk before I shoot you.
00:31:37One, I want you to call the coroner.
00:31:38Cardiac arrest is a result of acute respiratory failure.
00:31:41That's what the coroner report says.
00:31:42You know, some people have got a memory for baseball statistics.
00:31:45Me, I memorize COD, cause of death.
00:31:47And find out if those symptoms are consistent with electric shock.
00:31:49Two, I want you to get a rip.
00:31:51And see if there have been any similar deaths in the past couple of days.
00:32:00You're telling me that a telephone killed a girl.
00:32:04I'm leaning in that direction.
00:32:14Let me ask you one thing.
00:32:16In a city of four million people, how come you're the only one that thinks that?
00:32:20In a city of four million people, I'm the only one who's thought about it.
00:32:24June 1978, a man named Albert Kaminsky was murdered.
00:32:28In this whole city, only one man believed the killer was Deputy Mayor Stanton, one of the most popular city officials in history.
00:32:33You.
00:32:34Jesus.
00:32:35Jesus.
00:32:36Where'd you dig that out?
00:32:37Politicians came down on you.
00:32:38The media.
00:32:39Even your own department was totally outraged.
00:32:40But you hung in there, didn't you?
00:32:42Twenty years.
00:32:43Thirty-two indictments.
00:32:44Twelve convictions.
00:32:45Single-handed.
00:32:46Not bad.
00:32:47What's happened since then?
00:32:48You go on the take, or did you just say to hell with it?
00:32:50Let the elevator go, Bridger.
00:32:51You're holding up traffic.
00:32:52The other one's on the fritz.
00:32:53Little information is all I need.
00:32:54Nobody will know where it came from.
00:32:55It's company property.
00:32:56Do you see it?
00:32:57No.
00:32:58No.
00:32:59No.
00:33:00No.
00:33:01No.

00:33:41No.
00:33:42No.
00:33:43No.
00:33:44No.
00:33:45I knew what you were offering.
00:33:52What about the research section? Laboratories, that sort of thing?
00:33:57Upstairs.
00:34:15Yeah. Yeah, thanks. Wait a minute. Let me see.
00:34:45What about, let's go.
00:34:56Oh, my God.
00:35:02Yeah, I love you.
00:35:37I'm taking some nice pictures.
00:35:54Who the hell are you?
00:35:55Who are you working for?
00:35:57I'm just a tourist, man.
00:35:58I'm just taking pictures.
00:35:59Son of a bitch.
00:36:02Somebody call the cops.
00:36:03This guy's crazy.
00:36:04Call the cops.
00:36:07Who put you up to this, huh?
00:36:12Tell me.
00:36:14Tell me.
00:36:15Tell me.
00:36:16Tell me.
00:36:18Let your neck.
00:36:19Let your neck.
00:36:25Mr. Stanley Markowitz, to the courtesy telephone, please.
00:36:32Markowitz.
00:36:33Stanley, they found you.
00:36:34Hello?
00:36:35Hey, don't hang up.
00:36:36I only get one call.
00:36:37Where are you now?
00:36:38Downtown police station.
00:36:40What?
00:36:40I'm under arrest, Stanley.
00:36:43What is the charge?
00:36:44They're still adding them up.
00:36:46Can you get me out?
00:36:46Of course I will.
00:36:47God, it's just like the old days.
00:36:49Now, remember now.
00:36:50You don't have to tell them anything beyond your name.
00:36:53Some things you never forget.
00:36:54All right.
00:36:55You can't doubt it now, Stanley.
00:37:00They're covering up.
00:37:02Hey, try this.
00:37:05Oh, yeah.
00:37:07Yeah.
00:37:08Look, I'll talk to Fred Waits.
00:37:09Waits?
00:37:10Yeah, the president.
00:37:11Good man.
00:37:12I've known him for years.
00:37:13He'll talk off the record.
00:37:14There's no such animal as off the record.
00:37:16Besides, there's a better way to get inside.
00:37:19But you have in mind...
00:37:20We're going to take the tour.
00:37:22For God's sake, why?
00:37:24Patience, process, perseverance.
00:37:26Now, whoever taught me that?
00:37:29We are approaching the area where we can see into our system's control room.
00:37:36Satellite bounce.
00:37:38Microwave relay.
00:37:40International communications time lag.
00:37:44All the calculations are made from this room.
00:37:46By the year 2000, there will be 1.4 trillion phones in the world, including cable, switches,
00:38:00long-distance facilities.
00:38:02The cost will amount to approximately $1,000 per phone.
00:38:07That's what I call an industry.
00:38:09Now, this telephone system involves the use of half a million miles of conductive wire,
00:38:20enough to circle the globe 20 times.
00:38:24This is ESS, the electronic switching system.
00:38:31If necessary, it has the capacity to handle 100,000 calls per second.
00:38:36Naturally, we are computerizing and miniaturizing constantly.
00:38:43As our scientists develop new and more sophisticated systems,
00:38:46we can look forward to the day when this entire conflict can be housed in a space 150th area of its present requirements.
00:38:55When that occurs, we will be able to pass out...
00:38:58Nat!
00:38:59This is where I get off.
00:39:00What?
00:39:00Fishing expedition.
00:39:02Nat, you come...
00:39:02If anybody comes after me, give them a little of your bullshitizing, will you?
00:39:05You can't do that.
00:39:06Do what you do best.
00:39:07Nat!
00:39:09Sir, I'm afraid you must stay with the tour.
00:39:14I'm sorry, sir, but these are restricted areas.
00:39:17I am aware of that.
00:39:18My name is Stanley Markowitz.
00:39:20I am with the company.
00:39:22Could I see your clearance pass?
00:39:24You don't understand.
00:39:25A senior consultant, environment...
00:39:28But you don't have a pass.
00:39:30Would you call Fred Waits on the 16th floor?
00:39:33I know where the executive offices are located.
00:39:35Then speak to him.
00:39:36He'll explain to you who I am.
00:39:38Once the tour is finished, I'm sure we'll be able to follow the proper procedures.
00:39:43But while you're on my tour, I'm responsible.
00:39:45Wasn't there another gentleman?
00:39:47With me?
00:39:48No.
00:39:49Carry on.
00:39:50No.
00:40:38How's it going?
00:41:00Any progress?
00:41:08You could send a thing like that down the line.
00:41:16You from the recall lab?
00:41:18No, we're just visiting.
00:41:19Yeah?
00:41:20Where from?
00:41:21Up north, printing microprocessor chips, that sort of thing.
00:41:27What do you think?
00:41:29Boys in the recall lab want to know, too.
00:41:31That's why I thought, uh...
00:41:34Anyways, sure, yeah.
00:41:35Use the receiver as a capacitor.
00:41:38Store up the voltage input to the point of spontaneous discharge and, uh...
00:41:42Sounds simple.
00:41:44Not really, no.
00:41:46You working on it or something?
00:41:47Uh, sort of, yeah.
00:41:50Where'd you say the recall lab was?
00:41:51What's up, basement, A360?
00:42:00Thanks.
00:42:13Operator.
00:42:14Yeah, Winder's here.
00:42:16Give me a webcell and PR, will you?
00:42:17Now, this space houses our power monitor.
00:42:22It was designed and built by our cybernetics branch in 1977 at a cost of $450 million.
00:42:27$450 million.
00:42:57Sir, did you find your papers?
00:43:18I guess I must have, uh...
00:43:20No, not here.
00:43:22Hold it right there, Bridger.
00:43:44Will all non-company personnel please leave the building?
00:43:48Will all non-company personnel please leave the building?
00:43:52Immediately.
00:43:54Will all non-company personnel please leave the building?
00:43:57Uh, ladies and gentlemen, thank you very much for taking the time to appreciate the complexities of our industry.
00:44:04I'm working here.
00:44:06I am a consultant.
00:44:07I'm a senior consultant.
00:44:09Fire.
00:44:11What's happened, Les?
00:44:12Some guy broke into the recall lab.

00:50:20Lightning. Goddamn lightning.
00:50:22My office, right away.
00:50:26Get out of here.
00:50:28Tamlin.
00:50:30Where the hell is Tamlin?
00:50:32Here, sir. I already heard you were looking for me.
00:50:34Cut that out.
00:50:36There you are, sir.
00:50:46Bridger.
00:50:48Red's where they lived.
00:50:50Yellow's where they worked.
00:50:52The way we figure it, nobody bought it between 9 and 5, so our killer's gotta pick a victim by day, knock him off at night.
00:50:58Maybe he works downtown, spends some kind of a weird lunch hour.
00:51:02Markowitz worked around here, too.
00:51:04Thought he was some kind of a college professor.
00:51:06He was a consultant at the telephone company.
00:51:08Interesting.
00:51:10Let's move him.
00:51:12Makes it neat.
00:51:14That's a double, sir.
00:51:16What?
00:51:17The phone company.
00:51:18That other guy.
00:51:19The one after the subway.
00:51:20That's where he got it.
00:51:21Last night, Markowitz was gonna call Waits, the president, and talk to him about all this.
00:51:25Waits.
00:51:27Okay.
00:51:29Let's go right to the top.
00:51:31Do you want an apology?
00:51:35I just want the son of a bitch who did it.
00:51:37Yeah.
00:51:38So do I.
00:51:47Mr. Waits, please.
00:51:48My name is Mara.
00:51:49This is Mr. Bridger.
00:51:50Is he expecting you?
00:51:54His wife's been in a car accident.
00:51:56Mrs. Waits?
00:51:58Yep.
00:51:59Cut her nearly right in half.
00:52:01Oh, God.
00:52:03Oh, come with me.
00:52:06I just hate wasting time.
00:52:08I'm sorry, Mr. Waits, but could you...
00:52:11Louise, what's the matter?
00:52:12They're from the police, Mr. Waits.
00:52:14I'm so sorry.
00:52:22Commissioner sent you.
00:52:24You talked to Stanley Markowitz last night.
00:52:26I've explained everything to the commissioner.
00:52:28What did you explain?
00:52:29That's not your concern.
00:52:30It sure as hell is.
00:52:31If a telephone can be a lethal weapon.
00:52:38Just exactly who are you?
00:52:40We are the forces of goodness and mercy, Mr. Waits.
00:52:43I am Mara.
00:52:44He is Bridger.
00:52:45Yes.
00:52:46I know the name.
00:52:47Then you know what I've seen.
00:52:49A few telephones under repair.
00:52:51To hell with him.
00:52:52Let's go to the media.
00:52:54You really think that's a responsible thing to do?
00:52:57Create mass hysteria.
00:52:58Get us shut down.
00:52:59Do you realize what that would mean?
00:53:01About two dozen people would die every 60 seconds
00:53:05because they couldn't contact a doctor, a policeman, a fireman.
00:53:10Quite a price to pay just to stop one single madman.
00:53:18You had any ransom demands?
00:53:20No.
00:53:21Malcontents?
00:53:22Weirdos?
00:53:23It's all being looked after by the brightest and best at every level.
00:53:27Yeah.
00:53:28Every level except police.
00:53:31The commissioner is being kept fully informed.
00:53:34Now please, if you don't mind.
00:53:37I do mind.
00:53:38Waits.
00:53:39The smug attitude where you dictate information to the law.
00:53:41That says you're above the law.
00:53:54I'd better have a talk with my man down at the commissioner's office.
00:53:57You got an inside track?
00:53:58Yeah.
00:53:59Jack Gilsdorf, assistant commissioner.
00:54:01I got him in training, helping him get the right attitudes.
00:54:04I'll get back to you.
00:54:05Okay.
00:54:09I want you to take a little trip.
00:54:12Visit some of those sensitive relatives' years.
00:54:14Just a couple days.
00:54:15Are you kidding?
00:54:16Give up show business?
00:54:17Listen, Ridley.
00:54:18Stanley hit somebody's nerve and got his head blown off.
00:54:20I got to be close to the same nerve.
00:54:22That could put you in real danger.
00:54:23Look, I'm not going.
00:54:24That's settled.
00:54:25Now how do I get a hold of you if something happens?
00:54:27I'll call you.
00:54:28Ring once, hang up, and then ring again.
00:54:30Okay?
00:54:31Okay.
00:54:32What are you gonna do?
00:54:33He had the closing address tomorrow.
00:54:35I want to give him one last row.
00:54:39This system has a 43.6% self-sufficient temperature regulation.
00:54:42Okay.
00:54:51Thank you, sir.
00:54:52I see your temperature.
00:54:54420.
00:54:554-5, well.
00:54:56Thanks.
00:55:09Taxi.
00:55:10Taxi.
00:55:11Taxi.
00:55:12Taxi.
00:55:13Miss Taylor.
00:55:14Oh, hi, Noah.
00:55:15Miss Taylor.
00:55:16Oh, hi, Noah.
00:55:17Miss Taylor, I'm sorry about your mural.

00:55:30Taxi.
00:55:31Oh, no.
00:55:32Oh, yes.
00:55:33That's nice.
00:55:34Oh, no.
00:55:35Oh, all that's nice.
00:55:36I'm sorry.
00:55:37Oh.
00:55:38Oh.
00:55:39Oh, no.
00:55:40Oh, no.
00:55:41No, no?
00:55:42No.
00:55:43No, no.
00:55:44Oh.
00:55:45No.
00:55:46No, no.
00:55:47No.
00:55:48No.
00:55:49No, no.
00:55:50No, no.
00:55:51No.
00:55:52No.
00:55:53No.
00:55:54Oh, yes.
00:55:55In fact, he's going to be the closing speaker tomorrow.
00:55:58Good for him.
00:55:59Bye, Noah.
00:56:00737 Waterloo, please.
00:56:17What we see here is a slide of the Mediterranean Sea.
00:56:23Now, there was a time when...

01:01:59Hello?
01:02:00Hello?
01:02:02Hello?
01:02:04Oh, son of a bitch.
01:02:08Have you got a tape recorder there, a cassette player?
01:02:10Oh, sure.
01:02:14Because you know who I know in this town, and it sounds familiar to me.
01:02:18This first part is with weights.
01:02:20I love that.
01:02:23Fred, we've got trouble.
01:02:26Bridger has seen the foes.
01:02:28I know that.
01:02:30The question is, what are you doing about it?
01:02:32What's the good of the best?
01:02:33Sweet, yeah.
01:02:35You've been paid to contain it.
01:02:38Look, all right.
01:02:39He knew all the time.
01:02:40You said you had both lead.
01:02:43Oh, no, I'm sorry.
01:02:44Listen to the second part.
01:02:48Yes?
01:02:50What?
01:02:52You had your chance to control your environment.
01:02:56I found him in controlling mine.
01:02:58You're getting too close.
01:03:07Oh, I told him.
01:03:08Not that was Clayton.
01:03:11That's Noah Clayton, the tour guide.
01:03:12I told him where to find you.
01:03:13Detectives.
01:03:19Mirror, please.
01:03:23Detective Mirror is not available.
01:03:25Could I have him return your call when he comes in?
01:03:27Tell him Nat Bridger called.
01:03:43He can get me at 555...
01:03:454320.
01:03:464320, it's urgent.
01:03:50Delroy Drive.
01:03:51What?
01:03:52It's right there.
01:03:52Noah Clayton, 108 Delroy Drive.
01:03:56Delroy Drive.
01:03:58Wait.
01:03:59I'm coming with you.
01:04:00No, you hang on here.
01:04:02Look, somebody's got to tell Mirror about this.
01:04:03Keep calling him or be here when he calls.
01:04:05Okay.
01:04:06Nat, don't do anything stupid.
01:04:09Hey.
01:04:09I got a Ph.D.
01:04:11Hmph.
01:04:39Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
01:05:09Meera?
01:05:22Ridley Taylor?
01:05:28Clayton.
01:05:32Clayton?
01:05:34Clayton, don't!
01:05:36Look at him!
01:05:57I'm sorry, the number you have dialed is not in service.
01:06:00Please check the directory or ask the operator for assistance.
01:06:12You're fast, Bridger. I like your style.
01:06:16R.T., you okay?
01:06:17Yeah, I'm okay.
01:06:18Yeah?
01:06:19Bridger, Jack Gilsdorf, assistant police commissioner.
01:06:24Pulled a few strings from that Kaminsky thing.
01:06:26Hello.
01:06:27Pleased to meet you.
01:06:28A couple of my men just missed you at Clayton's.
01:06:30Of course, we had checked his employment records.
01:06:32They all show the Delroy address.
01:06:34Have you heard the tape? Positive.
01:06:36What do we do now?
01:06:38I want to find out for myself the extent of this thing.
01:06:41You know, get a handle on who's involved.
01:06:44And we know just the guy that can tell you.
01:06:48Talk to the commissioner.
01:06:49This is Mr. Gilsdorf.
01:06:51He's here to represent the commissioner's office.
01:06:54Right, Mr. Gilsdorf?
01:06:56That's right.
01:06:59This is now an official police matter.
01:07:01And you can forget about any previous understanding.
01:07:10Clayton hit Stanley because he was moving in on him.
01:07:13If he's convinced he got Ridley, that leaves only me.
01:07:15And he knows where I'm gonna be tomorrow morning.
01:07:16Are you set up to trace if he calls?
01:07:18Tracing's a myth, Bridger.
01:07:20ESS the size of ours could take five, maybe six minutes.
01:07:24I'll keep him on the line if he calls.
01:07:26What if you can't?
01:07:27He was on the line all of six seconds with me.
01:07:29You know anything about electrical flashback?
01:07:32Of course.
01:07:33We've got couplers hooked into the system to guard against vaporizing the ESS.
01:07:38Exactly.
01:07:40But if Clayton hasn't bothered to install couplers on his system,
01:07:43then we can redirect sound and voltage back to the point of origin.
01:07:47It's nice to see all those years behind books paid off.
01:07:54You want the voltage coils down there yet?
01:07:55Of course I want them down there.
01:07:56How much time do you think you've got?
01:07:58All aboard!
01:08:03The odds are the call will come through on the main number.
01:08:06Sometime just 410.
01:08:07Uh, from a local exchange?
01:08:08Yeah, I'd say you're looking at a four-digit trace.
01:08:11This is gonna take some time.
01:08:12Goddammit!
01:08:13I started as a lineman.
01:08:14I know how long it's gonna take.
01:08:22One moment, please.
01:08:23I'll connect you right away.
01:08:24Build more.
01:08:27Hold the line, please.
01:08:29Room 212 isn't answering, sir.
01:08:30Would you care to leave a message?
01:08:32Build more.
01:08:34Yes, or I'll connect you right away.
01:08:39Damn.
01:08:42Now, what do you got in the way of a capacitor bank for 20,000 volts?
01:08:45Mark's generator should do it.
01:08:46You got it?
01:08:47I'll get it.
01:08:48Did you isolate a room?
01:08:49This way.
01:08:50Hey, Joe.
01:08:51Hang me up here at Dykes over there, will you?
01:08:53You gotta keep him talking long enough to trace the call.
01:08:56Then maybe the guys down the hall can reverse the power.
01:08:57Maybe.
01:08:58Maybe.
01:08:59You gotta keep him talking long enough to trace the call.
01:09:02Then maybe the guys down the hall can reverse the power.
01:09:03Maybe.
01:09:04Maybe.
01:09:05You gotta keep him talking long enough to trace the call.
01:09:07Then maybe the guys down the hall can reverse the power.
01:09:10Maybe.
01:09:11You gotta keep him talking long enough to trace the call.
01:09:13You gotta keep him talking long enough to trace the call.
01:09:15Then maybe the guys down the hall can reverse the power.
01:09:16Maybe.
01:09:17You gotta keep him talking long enough to trace the call.
01:09:19You gotta keep him talking long enough to trace the call.
01:09:20Then maybe the guys down the hall can reverse the power.
01:09:22Maybe.
01:09:47a man who reflects that inspiration with an intelligence and an intensity that is entirely
01:10:08his own, Dr. Nat Bridger.
01:10:21Anything?
01:10:22Nothing yet.
01:10:24Oh boy.
01:10:38Ladies and gentlemen, the world is going to die unless we turn around and fight.
01:10:47We've got to become noisy, radical, and insubordinate.
01:10:51Now, I know what I'm going to do about it.
01:10:53So what the hell, Stanley Markowitz would have wanted me to ask, are you going to do about it?
01:11:00Biltmore.
01:11:01Mr. Nat Bridger, please. Ecological Symposium.
01:11:08Incoming. Incoming.
01:11:14Damn.
01:11:18Acceptable casualty levels?
01:11:20Acceptable to whom?
01:11:22To working men and women? To our children?
01:11:25To our children's children?
01:11:27Mankind's destiny is not to become vader for his own technology.
01:11:32The guy's out of line.
01:11:35Let's go.
01:11:38Thank you, ladies and gentlemen.
01:11:47We're paging him in the ballroom, sir.
01:11:49I'll put you through in just a moment.
01:11:52I'll take the call.
01:11:53No go.
01:11:54Why not?
01:11:55It's what I get paid for.
01:11:56Clayton won't know the difference. He hasn't heard your voice.
01:11:58Nobody has for too damn long. Thanks anyway, Mary.
01:12:03Let's go.
01:12:04First digit.
01:12:05Seven.
01:12:06Log on seven.
01:12:07Repeat.
01:12:08Seven.
01:12:09First digit.
01:12:10T.
01:12:17I'm staying.
01:12:19One.
01:12:20One.
01:12:21One.
01:12:22Two.
01:12:23Two.
01:12:24One.
01:12:25Two.
01:12:26One.
01:12:27Two.
01:12:28Two.
01:12:29I want to speak to Nat Bridger.
01:12:56Now listen Clayton, you're a brilliant man Clayton, but you've got to let us help you.
01:13:08You damn fool, I'm helping you, I'm helping you get rid of the world's real garbage.
01:13:20Lock on three, second digit.
01:13:27All those people who treat integrity like dirt, who denies our dignity.
01:13:31Was Sandra Thorner one of those people?
01:13:33Subway station.
01:13:35That was a test.
01:13:37I didn't even know her name.
01:13:39She was an innocent human being, goddammit.
01:13:41And so is Ridley Taylor.
01:13:46Lock on nine, third digit.
01:13:50Clayton, listen to me.
01:13:52You've, you've lost track of the enemy.
01:13:55You can't tell the innocent from the guilty.
01:13:57Fiber optics was mine, Bridger.
01:14:00They stole my vision.
01:14:02They stole everything.
01:14:04Housewife, children.
01:14:06They destroyed my life.
01:14:08You've got to stop.
01:14:10Now.
01:14:11You've got to let us help you.
01:14:13You don't care about people like me, nobody does.
01:14:16You're stalling for time.
01:14:19You're trying to trace this call.
01:14:23Well, time is up, Bridger.
01:14:30Two.
01:14:31Lock on two.
01:14:53Fly.
01:14:54Fly.
01:14:55Fly.
01:14:56Fly.
01:14:57Just get out.
01:14:58Come get out.
01:14:59Fly.
01:15:03Hey.
01:15:04Dad.
01:15:06No.
01:15:08No.
01:15:23Tablet sir
01:15:53Thank you, sir.
01:16:04We'd like to bury this incident, Bridger.
01:16:08If it can be done once, well, you understand the rules of the game.
01:16:12Only rule I know is publish or perish.
01:16:15I'd like my mural put back.
01:16:17Well, that could be arranged.
01:16:19A few changes I'd like to make.
01:16:20Artist's prerogative.
01:16:21A couple of angles I hadn't thought about before.
01:16:25Miss Taylor, there's nothing that you can paint or Bridger can publish
01:16:30which could be harmful to us for very long.
01:16:34Do you believe him?
01:16:35I'd be out of work if I did.
01:16:41Nat.
01:16:44Dr. Nat Bridger, please come to the green telephone.
01:16:47Dr. Nat Bridger to the green telephone, please.

01:17:06Might have a slot for you.
01:17:07I don't fill slots anymore, Mr. Heslop.
01:17:09There's about a dozen issues waiting for me back home.
01:17:11I'm only asking for a moment of your time.
01:17:13I know you care as much about the environment as I do.
01:17:16Just listen to me.

01:18:07You can pick the stage in your head.
