00:05:47THE END
00:05:48Son, take off the coat.
00:06:08Turn around.
00:06:15How's the dungeon these days?
00:06:17Fine.
00:06:18Why don't you try it?
00:06:19They still have some vacancies.
00:06:21All right, son.
00:06:23Perfectly all right.
00:06:25Your feet must be as raw as horse meat.
00:06:28Sit down.
00:06:30How long have you been at the dungeon?
00:06:33Forever and ever.
00:06:36How long?
00:06:39Two years.
00:06:41Ezra is the name.
00:06:43Ezra Thompson.
00:06:45Catus, if you want to be chummy.
00:06:47Yours.
00:06:47John Howard Barrington.
00:06:50What's the difference?
00:06:52No difference.
00:06:53I just want to know what to call you, that's all.
00:06:56You know what to call me?
00:06:57You called me a fool.
00:06:58You said I was bats.
00:06:59That's right.
00:07:00You are a fool.
00:07:03I'll tell you why.
00:07:05The last one tried to beat the dungeon.
00:07:08Wound up in my turkey coop.
00:07:11About 12 years ago.
00:07:14An old geezer.
00:07:15Real old.
00:07:16Grandpa, I said to him.
00:07:19As one old gooseberry to another, you haven't got a chance.
00:07:24Why, it's ten miles from here to the dungeon.
00:07:26And how long did it take you to make it?
00:07:28Ten hours, said Grandpa.
00:07:31Then you could hardly talk.
00:07:32Ten hours, I said.
00:07:34Ten hours of fighting the desert on foot?
00:07:36Well, you're about to kill yourself.
00:07:40Boundless and bare.
00:07:43Alone in level sand, stretch far away.
00:07:46You think you've made it because you're here.
00:07:52That's what Grandpa thought.
00:07:54You know what I told him?
00:07:58Grandpa, I said.
00:08:00I'm going to turn you right in.
00:08:05Why, said Grandpa.
00:08:08Why don't you let me go?
00:08:11Let you go, I said.
00:08:14Where to?
00:08:14The next town where everybody's waiting for you, not only the law.
00:08:20You're a marked man.
00:08:25Pick yourself up and eat.
00:08:28Turkey Malagatani.
00:08:31It's my own special.
00:08:34Ezra's Desert Delight, they call it.
00:08:36Not a burp in a pot full.
00:08:43Ezra's Desert Delight.
00:08:44Next to the Grand Canyon, it's the greatest thing west of the Mississippi.
00:08:52Darn sight better than the old smelling sauces, huh?
00:08:57Let me ask you something.
00:09:00Do you really believe violence is the way out?
00:09:03I'm sorry.
00:09:04Sorry.
00:09:07Sorry.
00:09:09That's all I ever hear.
00:09:12I hate the word.
00:09:14Should be stricken from the English language by act of Congress.
00:09:17Just say sorry, and all guilt is dismissed.
00:09:24Sorry.
00:09:25It's like a sponge.
00:09:28Whatever it is, it wipes it off.
00:09:31Just like that.
00:09:31I lost my head.
00:09:33Twice in one day you lost your head.
00:09:36Twice?
00:09:37Well, you must have been out of your mind to go over the wall.
00:09:40We all are where I come from.
00:09:43Are you?
00:09:44Really?
00:09:45I can't answer that.
00:09:47The more I deny it, the more you believe it.
00:09:49I suppose so.
00:09:52Frankly, I don't know.
00:09:54That's why I ran away to find out.
00:09:57Make sure.
00:09:57Make sure.
00:10:01How?
00:10:01I don't know.
00:10:06Yet.
00:10:11More?
00:10:13Please.
00:10:25What are you going to do?
00:10:28Do what?
00:10:28About me.
00:10:31You want my two cents worth?
00:10:34Go back.
00:10:34Save trouble for both of us.
00:10:37Go back?
00:10:39To that pest hole of creatures with bodies and no minds?
00:10:45Oh, I see.
00:10:48You're different.
00:10:50You're persecuted.
00:10:51Is that what you're trying to tell me?
00:10:53Yes.
00:10:55And no.
00:10:58That's a good answer.
00:10:59Sometimes I feel I'm persecuted and sometimes I don't.
00:11:05Insanity.
00:11:06What would you say insanity is?
00:11:10I should know, shouldn't I?
00:11:12If you did, you wouldn't be where you are.
00:11:14Well, I may not know all the answers, but some.
00:11:18Insanity is the lack of knowledge between right and wrong, they say.
00:11:22Not in the abstract, mind you.
00:11:24But in the particular act.
00:11:28Particular act?
00:11:29Particular act?
00:11:32What act?
00:11:34Whatever it is you've done against society.
00:11:38The crime.
00:11:39What was your particular act?
00:11:44I don't know.
00:11:46I can't remember.
00:11:49I feel no guilt whatsoever.
00:11:53That's why they say I'm out of my mind.
00:11:57Does that make sense?
00:12:00Doesn't it?
00:12:01Well, I don't know.
00:12:05I'm awfully confused.
00:12:09If I have no sense of guilt.
00:12:12And I haven't.
00:12:15Then maybe I didn't do what they accuse me of.
00:12:20Maybe...
00:12:21I'm innocent.
00:12:23Who gave you that notion?
00:12:30No one.
00:12:32They said I was insane.
00:12:33They had evidence to prove it, and I believed them.
00:12:37Well, I don't anymore.
00:12:39From now on, I have to prove it to myself.
00:12:43I have to find out...
00:12:46whether I committed that crime or not.
00:12:49I suppose you did.
00:12:54If I did...
00:12:55I'd give myself up.
00:12:59You expect me to believe that?
00:13:01It wasn't until the other day that my mind began kicking up.
00:13:04Now I feel that somewhere there's...
00:13:07something I don't know, which I should know.
00:13:11What's that?
00:13:13It's funny how it started.
00:13:15I was down on my knees scrubbing the floor.
00:13:17It was in the section where they keep the violent cases.
00:13:22The homicidal ones.
00:13:24Everything was as usual.
00:13:27Some of them were lying on their cots in their everlasting stupor.
00:13:31Some were pacing up and down their cages.
00:13:35Up and down.
00:13:37Up and down.
00:13:39Walking around the world over the years within a space of no more than five feet.
00:13:44One of the inmates was coming down the corridor toward me.
00:13:49Whoopi, they called him.
00:13:51Friendly little fellow.
00:13:52Harmless as a kitten.
00:13:55Next thing I heard was...
00:13:56Hey, Whoopi.
00:13:57Gargantua's voice.
00:13:59Whoopi, Gargantua coaxed.
00:14:01Come over here, boy.
00:14:02I got a story for you.
00:14:04They whispered together and...
00:14:06I went back to my scrubbing.
00:14:08Suddenly there was a terrifying scream.
00:14:10I wanted to get at them, to separate them.
00:14:19I wanted to, but I couldn't.
00:14:22I couldn't move.
00:14:24I was paralyzed.
00:14:27I wanted to yell, but there was no voice left in me.
00:14:30I couldn't get to her.
00:14:33I couldn't help her.
00:14:35Her?
00:14:36Did I say her?
00:14:39Or him.
00:14:40I meant him.
00:14:42Yeah, that's what I thought.
00:14:50Sounds familiar, doesn't it?
00:14:52Yeah, heard it on the way up here, I believe.
00:14:54The wash dogs, remember?
00:14:58My turkeys.
00:14:59Anybody comes within two miles of here, I know about it at once.
00:15:02You expecting anybody?
00:15:05I know, but folks around here don't wait for no written invitation.
00:15:24I know.
00:15:27Warden.
00:15:28How's the old rattlesnake?
00:15:29Oh, don't flatter me, Warden.
00:15:31The light in your window said come in, so we came in.
00:15:33Hello, Ezra.
00:15:34Hi, Pete.
00:15:35Hello, Doc.
00:15:37How about a little round of hearts, huh?
00:15:39Might have better luck this time.
00:15:42Shallow men believe in luck.
00:15:43Strong men believe in cause and effect.
00:15:47A half will get you a buck.
00:15:49Who said that?
00:15:51Emerson.
00:15:51Forget the game.
00:15:54That's all you get out of me tonight.
00:15:55I'll get you one of these days.
00:15:56I could go for something liquid.
00:15:58All right.
00:15:59Something for the throat?
00:16:01Or something for the brain?
00:16:03Something for the brain.
00:16:04Can't do me no harm.
00:16:07I got no brain.
00:16:19Count me in on a little schnapps.
00:16:21I feel like I've been through a mix, Master.
00:16:24Some rough day we had.
00:16:25I imagine so.
00:16:27Why?
00:16:28Why what?
00:16:29I said we had a rough day.
00:16:32That's right.
00:16:33Why say it twice?
00:16:35And you said I imagine so.
00:16:37That's right.
00:16:38Just figured you fellas had some trouble.
00:16:40That's all.
00:16:42How did you know?
00:16:43I heard something on the radio.
00:16:46You have no radio.
00:16:48That's right.
00:16:51You call that funny?
00:16:53Why, no, no.
00:16:55An old bushwhacker like me trying to be funny, now, that would be silly, wouldn't it?
00:16:59Who told you?
00:17:01The turkeys?
00:17:02Mind letting me in on the turkey secret?
00:17:04Oh, now, fellas, there's no need of getting excited.
00:17:07Whatever it is, you know more about it than I do.
00:17:10What I know is two hours ago, my turkeys started acting up.
00:17:14That's all.
00:17:15Somebody come by here?
00:17:17I went outside but didn't see anybody.
00:17:20It was dark.
00:17:21I heard no car.
00:17:23So whoever it was must have been navigating on their own power.
00:17:27That's him, all right.
00:17:29Who's him?
00:17:30One of our inmates who decided to go for a little air.
00:17:33Oh, just like that.
00:17:35You know better.
00:17:36It takes a lot of help and a lot of cunning.
00:17:38He had both.
00:17:40Crazy leg of fudge.
00:17:41Most of them know when they go for a walk, they're doomed.
00:17:44He's so far gone, he didn't even realize that.
00:17:47He'll be dead before morning.
00:17:50He will, ain't he?
00:17:51If not, and he manages to reach town, they're ready for him.
00:17:55We just come from there.
00:17:57There'll be a reward of $200 on his head.
00:18:00That dangerous.
00:18:01A killer.
00:18:07They gave him the death penalty.
00:18:09And then his sentence was commuted to life imprisonment in the asylum.
00:18:14Suppose he manages to stay on his feet.
00:18:20And you don't catch him.
00:18:21I even hate to think about it.
00:18:27Look at you.
00:18:28All of you.
00:18:29Big shots.
00:18:30Why, you're scared spitless.
00:18:33We're on the spot.
00:18:34He isn't.
00:18:34He's one of those I don't remember cases.
00:18:36And what has he got to lose?
00:18:38As long as the governor has no ulcers,
00:18:40loss of memory as a passport to immunity from the hot seat.
00:18:44You think he's faking?
00:18:46No, I don't.
00:18:48If he were, he'd be normal.
00:18:50He'd be just an ordinary liar.
00:18:51His brain would act as a brake on his emotion.
00:18:55But he's not.
00:18:57And that's the danger.
00:18:58A medical professor of Harvard once said...
00:19:02Attention, please.
00:19:03The sage of the sagebrush talking.
00:19:07I firmly believe, the professor said,
00:19:10that if the whole Materia Medica
00:19:12were sunk to the bottom of the sea,
00:19:14it would be all the better.
00:19:16I know that one.
00:19:17It would be all the better for mankind
00:19:18and all the worse for the fish.
00:19:21Very funny.
00:19:22Proves what?
00:19:23Proves we stink.
00:19:24You, I, all of us.
00:19:26That's what it proves.
00:19:28There's a killer on the prowl
00:19:30and we're the ones who stink.
00:19:31He doesn't.
00:19:32We do.
00:19:34If he's insane, he's sick.
00:19:38And if he's sick, he needs help.
00:19:40But he doesn't want help.
00:19:43Maybe he does.
00:19:44Now it'd be funny.
00:19:46Is that why you broke out?
00:19:47To look for another doctor?
00:19:49No.
00:19:50To look for another victim.
00:19:52Who was the first one?
00:19:54Rosemary's girlfriend.
00:19:56Co-ed at Southern California
00:19:57where he got his law degree
00:19:58just before the killing.
00:20:00The boy was adopted.
00:20:02His foster father is Cyrus Barrington.
00:20:05Does that mean anything to you?
00:20:08No, not exactly.
00:20:10Sounds like chairman of the board
00:20:12or something.
00:20:14Like oil.
00:20:15Or big steel.
00:20:16What interests me is
00:20:18what's underneath that glossy surface.
00:20:21What about the real parents?
00:20:22It might be a case of hereditary insanity.
00:20:25We have no way of knowing.
00:20:26We can't dig into his past.
00:20:28He has no past.
00:20:29He has no family that could give us a clue.
00:20:32That isn't the point, Doc.
00:20:33There hasn't been one successful escape
00:20:35in the handles of the institution.
00:20:37And I'm going to see to it
00:20:38that it stays that way.
00:20:40Good night.
00:20:41Good morning.
00:20:45Good night, Ezra.
00:20:46Thanks for that prank stuff.
00:20:47Good morning, son.
00:20:58I got the green light.
00:21:02You know, you're a strange duck.
00:21:05What's strange about me?
00:21:07I'm an open book.
00:21:09Yeah, in Sanskrit.
00:21:11Why didn't you turn me in?
00:21:15Why didn't you?
00:21:18You've got something there, son.
00:21:21Why didn't I?
00:21:23Why the deuce didn't I?
00:21:28Tell you.
00:21:29I know what it is being fenced in.
00:21:32I got sick of jealousies
00:21:34and conventions.
00:21:36A million elbows in my ribs.
00:21:39The smugness of the human mind
00:21:41which pretends progress and civilization
00:21:44and has nothing to show
00:21:46but depressions and destruction.
00:21:50I'd rather argue with turkeys and books
00:21:52and talk to a growing plant
00:21:55and have the howling wilderness
00:21:57sing me a lullaby.
00:22:00Nothing ever happens around here.
00:22:01But when it does
00:22:04must mean something.
00:22:10Call it fate.
00:22:13Call it a challenge.
00:22:15I'm not superstitious
00:22:17but I guess I just have to meet it.
00:22:22Got caught.
00:22:24That's what it amounts to.
00:22:25And you're out 200 bucks.
00:22:34That's right, son.
00:22:35Besides being full of fancy fumes
00:22:37I'm no businessman, I reckon.
00:22:38I'll get the money, though.
00:22:43Don't you worry.
00:22:45How?
00:22:52I'll put you to work.
00:22:5350 bucks a week.
00:22:55Four weeks?
00:22:55200 bucks.
00:22:56Maybe I'm a businessman.
00:23:15Of all noises
00:23:16I think music is the least disagreeable.
00:23:19Don't you?
00:23:21You heard what the man said.
00:23:23I'm a killer.
00:23:24A menace.
00:23:27And I'm an accessory
00:23:28after the fact.
00:23:30You may have the life
00:23:31of an innocent girl
00:23:31on your conscience.
00:23:33If I did it the first time
00:23:34I might do it again
00:23:37if it's in me.
00:23:41The man could be right.
00:23:45You give yourself
00:23:47the benefit of the doubt,
00:23:48don't you?
00:23:50That's all I do.
00:23:54Mr. Cyrus Barrington, Warden.
00:24:11I'm Warden Anderson.
00:24:20Dr. Gordon,
00:24:20head of our medical staff.
00:24:22Dr. David Dunbar,
00:24:23friend of the family.
00:24:24Won't you be seated, gentlemen?
00:24:27Dr. Dunbar calls himself
00:24:28my severest critic.
00:24:29I call him a nuisance.
00:24:30I have a confession to make, doctor.
00:24:34I'm allergic to irrelevant laughter.
00:24:37An Englishman.
00:24:37No sense of humor.
00:24:38What do you expect?
00:24:40I didn't mean to offend you.
00:24:42Oh, I beg your pardon, doctor.
00:24:43Actually, I'm as meek
00:24:44as a turtle dove.
00:24:45I understand.
00:24:46We all have our little idiosyncrasies.
00:24:49The California sunshine
00:24:50is converted back to Dunbar
00:24:51into a native.
00:24:52Oh, not only the sunshine
00:24:53or the chamber of commerce.
00:24:55Actually, John and I met
00:24:56during the blitz in London.
00:24:57He asked me over here on a visit
00:24:58and I've been the man
00:24:59who came to dinner ever since.
00:25:01You're a physician, doctor.
00:25:03I don't know how I'm expected
00:25:03to answer that.
00:25:04I'm a psychologist.
00:25:06Oh.
00:25:07You're practicing here now?
00:25:09I'm afraid so, yes.
00:25:10I don't know whether you gentlemen
00:25:11suspect the nature of this meeting.
00:25:14I suppose it has something to do
00:25:15with the unfortunate event
00:25:17involving your son.
00:25:18My adopted son.
00:25:20I understand there's a reward
00:25:22of $200 offered
00:25:23for the boy's capture.
00:25:24That's correct.
00:25:25Do you believe that is a
00:25:27sufficient incentive
00:25:28for those looking for him?
00:25:29Even if there wasn't
00:25:30any reward at all,
00:25:31Mr. Barrington,
00:25:32I meant to keep on looking for him.
00:25:34They're employees of the state.
00:25:36Yes, but if some private citizen
00:25:38should, let us say,
00:25:40get involved.
00:25:41If a private citizen
00:25:42should become his accomplice,
00:25:44I'm afraid money won't talk.
00:25:46I'm fully aware
00:25:47of my responsibility.
00:25:48Your responsibility?
00:25:50What Mr. Barrington wants
00:25:51to say, I think,
00:25:52is that he feels
00:25:52it is duty to society
00:25:54to prevent a repetition
00:25:55of this tragedy.
00:25:56And how does Mr. Barrington
00:25:58propose to do
00:25:59his duty to society?
00:26:01I'm prepared to raise
00:26:02the reward to $5,000.
00:26:03You'll notice
00:26:04that the check is certified.
00:26:11I don't think
00:26:12it'll serve its purpose,
00:26:13Mr. Barrington.
00:26:14If you two gentlemen
00:26:15would cooperate,
00:26:16there is a way
00:26:16to ease the tension
00:26:17on Mr. Barrington.
00:26:18Is there?
00:26:19Mr. Barrington feels
00:26:21that until John is recaptured,
00:26:22he is entitled
00:26:23to protection.
00:26:26Yes.
00:26:27In view of the
00:26:28psychological complications
00:26:29involved,
00:26:30I believe this suggestion
00:26:31is not an unreasonable one.
00:26:34Thank you, gentlemen.
00:26:37Goodbye, Wharton.
00:26:38Good day.
00:26:38Glad to have met you, doctor.
00:26:40Doctor.
00:26:40That poor, grief-stricken father.
00:26:52He's full of fear.
00:26:53That's what he is.
00:26:54So are we.
00:26:56What did he do
00:26:57when John was indicted?
00:26:59He disinherited him.
00:27:02That was one of his
00:27:03responsibilities to society,
00:27:05I imagine.
00:27:06What else could he have done?
00:27:08Left a fortune
00:27:08to a lunatic?
00:27:10Cyrus Barrington.
00:27:12The story of a success.
00:27:14That story was written
00:27:15with ice water.
00:27:17Cactus,
00:27:17the old gopher,
00:27:18was right.
00:27:20We stink,
00:27:21but good.
00:27:25Barrington has a point, though.
00:27:27Has he?
00:27:28It might pay off
00:27:29to watch his place.
00:27:30It might.
00:27:31I hope it doesn't.
00:27:32a fine thing
00:27:36for me to be saying.
00:28:02what's the matter?
00:28:27My annual reminder
00:28:29that age is not only
00:28:30something you fill out
00:28:31in an application blank.
00:28:33Sciatica,
00:28:33the doctor calls it.
00:28:34Colorful name
00:28:35for such a dread pain.
00:28:36Wonderful language,
00:28:37Latin, isn't it?
00:28:38Anything I can do?
00:28:39Sure can.
00:28:40Keep up the good work.
00:28:41You remember
00:28:42when I told you
00:28:42watch me,
00:28:43watch me from dawn
00:28:44till dusk,
00:28:45and you'd get the hang of it?
00:28:46No, it didn't take you long,
00:28:47did it?
00:28:48Three weeks.
00:28:49Let me look at your paws.
00:28:51Yeah, calluses.
00:28:52The dog tag of hard labor.
00:28:55The greasery,
00:28:55the darkness, son.
00:28:56You know,
00:28:57I think I'll put a nad
00:28:57in the paper.
00:28:58Feeling low,
00:28:59feeling run down,
00:29:01no pep,
00:29:02no schwarzerbeam.
00:29:04And spend a few weeks
00:29:05at Thompson's Turkey Ranch,
00:29:07guaranteed to restore
00:29:08your appetite,
00:29:09your muscles,
00:29:10your vim and vigor,
00:29:11and all your natural hankerings.
00:29:13And every day,
00:29:14Thanksgiving Day.
00:29:17Confounded beast,
00:29:18they keep you worried,
00:29:19don't they?
00:29:19I get sick,
00:29:20so what?
00:29:21I get well.
00:29:22One of them fall sick
00:29:22and ten to one
00:29:23is a dead one.
00:29:23We're practically
00:29:24out of feed
00:29:25for these chickens.
00:29:26See, I know.
00:29:27I've got to go to town.
00:29:28Well, you can't,
00:29:28not with your bones
00:29:29all locked up.
00:29:30I've got to.
00:29:30I'll go for you.
00:29:31Ah, you're crazy.
00:29:34I'm sorry.
00:29:35I forgot about that.
00:29:36Well, now,
00:29:36cut it out, son.
00:29:37You know I didn't mean it
00:29:38that way.
00:29:38You don't trust me, huh?
00:29:39I do,
00:29:40but the police don't.
00:29:41Now, look,
00:29:41you're not going to risk
00:29:42everything for a bunch
00:29:42of jangle-brained birds,
00:29:43are you?
00:29:44Well, they mean your life.
00:29:46Yes, and if you make
00:29:46one false move,
00:29:47it means yours.
00:29:48Not necessarily.
00:29:50Don't get any ideas.
00:29:51Don't try to be a hero.
00:29:53I'm not a hero,
00:29:54but if only a hundred
00:29:54of them die,
00:29:55it means a loss
00:29:55of six hundred dollars.
00:29:57You're just a stubborn fool.
00:30:02Stubborn old fool, son.
00:30:04Old fool,
00:30:05I must insist.
00:30:07An old fool
00:30:07is better than a young one.
00:30:09That's for sure.
00:30:10Even a fool
00:30:11sometimes gives good counsel.
00:30:13An ancient Greek
00:30:13discovered that.
00:30:15If you flip your wings,
00:30:17you'll be heading
00:30:17for trouble
00:30:18you don't even think of.
00:30:22Say,
00:30:23it's been two years
00:30:24now since they took you
00:30:25out of circulation,
00:30:26is that right?
00:30:27Yes.
00:30:29Haven't seen a girl
00:30:30since, have you?
00:30:31No.
00:30:33Why?
00:30:34Why?
00:30:36Woman is man's confusion.
00:30:39You should know.
00:30:40Come on.
00:31:00Come on.
00:31:02Then he's going to be
00:31:03in a different direction.
00:31:04Whoo!
00:31:34Let's get it over with.
00:31:41Get over what?
00:31:42The conversation.
00:31:44The yakety-yak.
00:31:45I don't know what you mean.
00:31:47Simple, mister, simple.
00:31:49I've hitchhiked before.
00:31:50I know what goes with it.
00:31:53Every time my neighbor's a guy behind a wheel,
00:31:55there's a lot of dialogue thrown my way.
00:31:58It turns my stomach.
00:32:01But that's the charge for the hospitality.
00:32:04Go ahead, mister, turn my stomach.
00:32:06What do you want to know?
00:32:07I don't want to know anything.
00:32:10You're not the curious type?
00:32:12Definitely not.
00:32:14That's a new one.
00:32:16You kidding?
00:32:17No.
00:32:18You must be.
00:32:20Why did you stop in the first place?
00:32:22I wonder.
00:32:24I know.
00:32:26I look like a heck of a nice girl to you, don't I?
00:32:29Frankly, no.
00:32:31You just haven't gotten around to it yet, believe me.
00:32:35Well, mister, I'll give you a break.
00:32:37You might as well know it now.
00:32:39I'm no lily.
00:32:40Not at all.
00:32:42But my morals have no zipper.
00:32:44You let it go at that.
00:32:51And don't try to save my beautiful soul.
00:32:53It kills me.
00:32:54Why should I?
00:32:55You shouldn't.
00:32:56But you would.
00:32:56You'd wind up telling me that underneath this hard-boiled surface of mine, there must be something soft as a powder puff.
00:33:04There isn't, mister.
00:33:06Interesting.
00:33:07In getting to know you, I'm getting to know myself.
00:33:09Service is on the house.
00:33:14That's as far as it goes.
00:33:17Cash and Gary Connie, they call me.
00:33:19I worked in a drive-in and I had that embroidered across my jacket.
00:33:22My father used to say, money makes the man.
00:33:28As far as I'm concerned, money makes the woman, too.
00:33:31He only said it.
00:33:33I mean it.
00:33:34It's just being realistic.
00:33:35Get it?
00:33:39That isn't hard to get.
00:33:42Look, the man of the world.
00:33:45I'm glad we understand each other.
00:33:50There's nothing else to be discussed, is there?
00:33:56Do you mind if I take a nap?
00:33:58No.
00:34:05I've known all sorts of people.
00:34:15But you're a sort all by yourself.
00:34:17Don't say that.
00:34:18What's eating you?
00:34:19It isn't true. I'm not different.
00:34:21You're right, you're not.
00:34:22You hardly know me, and yet you say I'm different. Why?
00:34:26We've been here now for an hour or so.
00:34:29Doing nothing but look at the sun, listen to the wind.
00:34:33It's kind of boring, don't you think?
00:34:35I'd rather look at myself in the mirror and make faces.
00:34:40I'm satisfied.
00:34:43To me, it's an image spelling freedom.
00:35:01Where are you headed for?
00:35:03Los Angeles.
00:35:03Employed, yes.
00:35:07Profession singing waitress.
00:35:09You got a voice?
00:35:11If I had a voice, I wouldn't be singing while serving knockout drops.
00:35:15What's needed for a job like that?
00:35:17Nothing.
00:35:18Except a boss who likes you.
00:35:21Who's he?
00:35:22It's a fellow named Level Louie.
00:35:25A beer joint on South Main.
00:35:26Big time.
00:35:27Gifts for important customers.
00:35:30Gifts?
00:35:32Brass knuckles for the ladies, guns for the gentlemen.
00:35:35No.
00:35:36Yes.
00:35:37I'll show you how Level Louie is.
00:35:39The guns are loaded.
00:35:41And his checks are good.
00:35:43What are you doing here, then?
00:35:44Ah, vacation.
00:35:48I took a job on a dude ranch about 20 miles from here.
00:35:51The Casa Gustavo, they call it.
00:35:53And don't ask me who the boss is.
00:35:54He's a guy by the name of Gustavo.
00:35:56Singing waitress?
00:35:57No.
00:35:58Waitresses there don't sing.
00:35:59They cry.
00:36:01They act as doctors and barbers.
00:36:05All you ever discuss with a guest is their stomachs and the weather.
00:36:09No dough, no fun.
00:36:11Just the smell of milk and fertilizer.
00:36:14How long did you hold out?
00:36:15Six weeks.
00:36:16That's all you can take.
00:36:18After that, you start yelling again, Main Street, here I come.
00:36:21Come on.
00:36:27It's getting chilly.
00:36:39I have to protect my source of income.
00:36:49Where did you get this scarf?
00:36:51You ask the funniest questions.
00:36:53Where did you get this scarf?
00:36:54What difference does it make?
00:36:55I want to know who gave you this scarf.
00:36:58And you're not the curious type.
00:36:59Oh, no, definitely not.
00:37:00Not you.
00:37:01Tell me.
00:37:01All right.
00:37:03You're too wacky for me, mister.
00:37:05The dollar chain stores gave it to me for 89 cents.
00:37:08Now, what's all the breeze about a cheap piece of silk?
00:37:12You sure I've seen this scarf before?
00:37:14Sure you're sure.
00:37:15You think for 89 cents you get an exclusive?
00:37:17It was around a girl's neck, just like yours.
00:37:22Don't.
00:37:25You tickle.
00:37:27It's getting late.
00:37:49You sure you won't come in?
00:38:12No, thanks.
00:38:13All right.
00:38:15Maybe I'll run into you again sometime.
00:38:23Didn't you forget something?
00:38:24Did I?
00:38:25You promised to lend me $10 for my bus fare.
00:38:28I'll be right back.
00:38:29Suppose you're not.
00:38:31It won't take me long.
00:38:32Don't take me long.
00:38:53I never thought he'd go in for anything like that.
00:39:15What do you mean?
00:39:17You're his hired hand, you say?
00:39:19That's right.
00:39:20Hard to take.
00:39:21No one is.
00:39:22I guess he's getting old.
00:39:23He's been old ever since I knowed him.
00:39:26Never needed nobody.
00:39:28He isn't feeling so well these days.
00:39:30Well, who is?
00:39:31That's right.
00:39:33Mind if I get personal?
00:39:37No.
00:39:39You sort of look like I've seen you before.
00:39:42This face of mine comes in carloads.
00:39:45It ain't the face, it's what's in the face.
00:39:49Yours tells a tale, friend.
00:39:51Been around these parts for long?
00:39:54A while.
00:39:56Worked on a ranch before.
00:39:58Where?
00:40:01Cousa Gustavo.
00:40:02Gus?
00:40:03What do you know?
00:40:04Bet he didn't tell you he used to be a wrestler.
00:40:07He used to do his stuff right here at the Legion Hall.
00:40:10Boy, he had arms like a pipeline.
00:40:12Good boy, Gus.
00:40:13That should do it.
00:40:15Well, I hate to see cactus going soft.
00:40:18You tell him, will you?
00:40:20He sure will.
00:40:21A deal's a deal, I always say.
00:40:23No two ways about it.
00:40:25Three drinks, that's a dollar fifty.
00:40:27Plus fifty cents for you, Jack.
00:40:31That makes two dollars each.
00:40:32Right?
00:40:33Well, that's right.
00:40:35Much obliged, Tom.
00:40:36That's right.
00:40:37Now, for each drink, we chip in an equal amount for the lady.
00:40:43That's the deal.
00:40:43That makes seventy-five cents for each of us, Sid.
00:40:48Well, here's my share, lady.
00:40:51There.
00:40:53And here's Sid's.
00:40:56Lady.
00:40:57Lady.

00:45:01Trouble?
00:45:02No trouble.
00:45:03Just letting off steam, eh, Tom?
00:45:04That's right, Sheriff.
00:45:05You said it.
00:45:06It's Saturday night, you know.
00:45:07No harm done.
00:45:09No harm.
00:45:10They beat the bejabers out of the guy.
00:45:13We did?
00:45:14Do we?
00:45:15What guy?
00:45:22He's gone, I guess.
00:45:23Who is he?
00:45:24The guy she says they beat the bejabers out of.
00:45:27We don't know him, do we?
00:45:29Oh.
00:45:30Friend of birth is here.
00:45:32Well?
00:45:33I don't know.
00:45:34Well, you said he was a friend of yours.
00:45:36He isn't any friend of mine.
00:45:37You said he was.
00:45:38I only knew him a few hours.
00:45:40What's his name?
00:45:40I don't know.
00:45:41What else don't you know about him?
00:45:43Nothing.
00:45:43Nothing.
00:45:45Nice fella he was.
00:45:46You in the habit of picking up strangers just as long as they're nice?
00:45:49I didn't pick him up.
00:45:50He picked me up.
00:45:51You know your name?
00:45:52Yes.
00:45:53Great.
00:45:54Let's have it.
00:45:55Connie Carter.
00:45:56Didn't you call her Bertha?
00:45:57What do you want to know, what he calls me or what my birth certificate calls me?
00:46:00Your business here?
00:46:01None.
00:46:01I wouldn't do any business here if you gave me the key to this sick town.
00:46:04Easy, girl.
00:46:05I'm just passing through.
00:46:07Where to?
00:46:07L.A.
00:46:08And that's just where you're going.
00:46:10Right now.
00:46:12There's a bus leaving here in 15 minutes.
00:46:14If I see you again, I'll pull you in.
00:46:15Why?
00:46:16You can't charge me with anything.
00:46:18Can't I?
00:46:19Vagrancy, for instance?
00:46:21How does that sound to you?
00:46:22I'm no vagrant.
00:46:23I'm a waitress.
00:46:24Never mind.
00:46:25You heard me.
00:46:27Run along, miss.
00:46:27I'm a waitress.
00:46:57We've been here now for an hour or so, doing nothing but look at the sun and listen to the wind.
00:47:21Kind of boring, don't you think?
00:47:23I'm satisfied.
00:47:25To me, it's an image spelling freedom.
00:47:53Let's go.
00:47:53Let's go.
00:47:56Let's go.
00:47:58I want you to visit my neighbor.
00:48:00I want you to visit my neighbor.
00:48:04Listen to me.
00:48:06I want you to visit my neighbor.
00:48:07I like you.
00:48:09We're looking at the Student within the!", convention.
00:48:12Have you any criminal action?
00:48:13Have you yet?
00:48:14Do not track me.
00:48:15After that, I think you're working my neighbor.
00:48:16Did you guys sing somewhere before you?
00:48:17I've worked for a visit all six years?
00:48:20Andrew, Lord, it was ыКШ on Earth.
00:48:22Oh, my God.
00:48:52Oh, Miss.
00:49:01I forgot your purse.
00:49:04Thanks.
00:49:22Oh, my God.
00:49:52Oh, my God.
00:50:22You know what to do, you treacherous reptile.
00:50:25It's a nice day. Why spoil it?
00:50:27Well, I haven't seen you since yesterday noon.
00:50:30Where have you been?
00:50:31In town.
00:50:32Where did you sleep?
00:50:39Right here.
00:50:40Why didn't you come in?
00:50:41I didn't want to disturb you. You're sick.
00:50:43Oh, I ought to beat your brains out, except you haven't any.
00:50:47I wish you were right.
00:50:49If I didn't have a brain, I wouldn't have a sick one.
00:50:52What happened?
00:50:53The turkeys are all right now.
00:50:54Are you?
00:50:55Sure.
00:50:56Tell me.
00:50:57Nothing much to tell.
00:50:59How much?
00:50:59Hardly anything.
00:51:01Hardly anything, eh?
00:51:04Been in a fight?
00:51:07Barroom brawl. You know, it starts for no reason.
00:51:09No reason being a girl, of course.
00:51:11I hate to pull the old I told you so stuff, but I told you so, didn't I?
00:51:18So what?
00:51:19I'm all right, I tell you. Nobody recognized me.
00:51:22All right, so you're all right.
00:51:24I borrowed ten dollars from the feed money I took.
00:51:28For the girl, of course.
00:51:29Nothing like that. I'm not interested in her.
00:51:31Oh, certainly not.
00:51:34She had a scarf I'm interested in.
00:51:36Is that so?
00:51:37I knew that scarf.
00:51:41Must be quite a wench. Did she restore your memory, too?
00:51:44No, she didn't, but the scarf did somehow.
00:51:49Are you serious?
00:51:50Dead serious.
00:51:52Rosemary was strangled with a scarf like that.
00:51:56And?
00:52:00That's all.
00:52:03That's all?
00:52:05You remembered.
00:52:05For the first time, you remembered.
00:52:08That's what matters.
00:52:10No, it doesn't.
00:52:11It only shows I lost all sense of proportion.
00:52:15I lost all sense, period.
00:52:18I thought I had something.
00:52:20What did I have?
00:52:21A bubble that burst.
00:52:24Scared?
00:52:25I can't help it.
00:52:27So far, at least, I've had doubts.
00:52:29Doubts may wreck you, but they let you believe what you want to believe.
00:52:33Facts don't.
00:52:34Suppose I am the one.
00:52:38Suppose I am.
00:52:41Suppose you aren't.
00:52:43It's worth taking a chance, isn't it?
00:52:44That's what I thought.
00:52:47Right now, I don't know.
00:52:50I'm afraid.
00:52:52Afraid?
00:52:53Why?
00:52:55Chances don't rule men.
00:52:57You've got to take one to win one.
00:52:59That's the way I look at it.
00:53:00Do you really?
00:53:03You wouldn't be here if I didn't.
00:53:04You know that.
00:53:06Why make me say it again, stupid?
00:53:08And for heaven's sake, don't say you're sorry.
00:53:11I won't.
00:53:13Scarf along to Rosemary?
00:53:14Yes.
00:53:17Gift of yours?
00:53:19No, David gave it to her.
00:53:21David?
00:53:23Pal of mine, my best friend.
00:53:27Heard from him lately?
00:53:31No, I haven't.
00:53:32I haven't heard from him at all.
00:53:47There's a guy giving me the eye.
00:53:49What do you want me to do?
00:53:51Go over, shake his eye, and say, how do you do?
00:53:53I don't like the looks of his looks.
00:53:55Probably a connoisseur looking for atmosphere.
00:53:58I'm the atmosphere, you know that.
00:53:59It makes me nervous.
00:54:01Let's see what he wants.
00:54:03What's your guess, Louis?
00:54:04Silk underwear?
00:54:06I'd say he wants booze.
00:54:08Where is he?
00:54:27Who is he?
00:54:29I don't know.
00:54:31Who is he?
00:54:34A cousin of mine.
00:54:35Sure.
00:54:35I call him an ex, you call him a cousin.
00:54:37Ex my foot.
00:54:38Something tells me.
00:54:39Shut up!
00:54:41Something always tells you something.
00:54:44Whatever it is, it's a lot of goulash.
00:54:46I call him an ex.
00:55:05Cody.
00:55:06Get out.
00:55:07What's the matter?
00:55:08You're asking me.
00:55:10Get out.
00:55:11Look, I have some business in town.
00:55:12I need a room for tonight.
00:55:13I thought maybe...
00:55:13I don't care what you thought.
00:55:14Get out.
00:55:15I have some money.
00:55:16If you help me, I can make...
00:55:16Don't con me.
00:55:17I don't want your dough.
00:55:20Get out.
00:55:21Well, give me a beer.
00:55:22It took me three bottles to get here.
00:55:23I might as well have another one.
00:55:24Forget it.
00:55:25Now, wait a minute.
00:55:26Get off my ear.
00:55:27This ain't no bunk for guys who take a powder.
00:55:31I don't know what you're talking about.
00:55:32You don't.
00:55:35Let me ask you a question.
00:55:38It sounds silly, but it isn't.
00:55:41Do you know who you are?
00:55:43Just answer yes or no.
00:55:44Do you or don't you?
00:55:45Are you out of your mind?
00:55:47Look who's asking.
00:55:49Certainly I know who I am.
00:55:50Well, listen, mister.
00:55:51Listen carefully.
00:55:52So do I.
00:55:53Get it?
00:55:53So do I.
00:55:55You want a straight without the dressing?
00:55:58I know everything.
00:56:00I know all about you.
00:56:02And now for the last time, get out.
00:56:04I don't want any part of this mess, not even the money.
00:56:08I don't want any blood on my hands.
00:56:10I don't want any trouble with the police.
00:56:11I don't want to lose my job.
00:56:14Is there enough left in your upper strata to get that?
00:56:23Scotch, quick.
00:56:46I just had a nightmare.
00:56:48All cousins are nightmares.
00:56:50I hate cousins.
00:56:51Let's go.
00:57:21Let's go.
00:57:51Let's go.
00:58:21Let's go.
00:58:51Don't be alarmed.
00:59:02Sit down.
00:59:06Why have you come here?
00:59:24I expected that question. It deserves an answer.
00:59:28You read about my escape, I suppose.
00:59:30I did?
00:59:31The papers didn't say anything about my motive, did they?
00:59:37Motive?
00:59:38Yes.
00:59:39I didn't escape to beat the law.
00:59:42I don't see any future in being a fugitive from justice.
00:59:47All I want to know is whether I did what they claim I did.
00:59:53And you're the one that can give me the answer.
01:00:00I?
01:00:02What makes you think that?
01:00:03What have I got to do with it?
01:00:05Nothing.
01:00:05Except that something's happened since then that made me remember.
01:00:11You mean your memory's functioning again?
01:00:19Not entirely.
01:00:22But I do remember that you were with me when it happened.
01:00:25That's correct.
01:00:27I was.
01:00:28Do you recall anything else?
01:00:36No.
01:00:38Beyond that, my mind is still a blank.
01:00:41I'm leaving now, Doctor.
01:00:46All right.
01:00:46Oh, Miss Dean.
01:00:55Call up this number, will you?
01:00:58Tell them I'd be late.
01:01:06What I want to know from you is this.
01:01:09Why didn't you appear at the trial?
01:01:12Why did you stay away from me when they were smashing my life to bits?
01:01:17Why didn't you come up and say,
01:01:18Wait a minute, gentlemen, I know better.
01:01:20I was there.
01:01:22That's just it.
01:01:23I couldn't come to your rescue because I knew better.
01:01:29I don't get it.
01:01:33I didn't want to incriminate you.
01:01:41You think I'm guilty.
01:01:47John, I know you are.
01:01:53Can you prove it to me?
01:01:56If you want me to, I...
01:01:58You can.
01:02:02Hello, Mr. Barrington.
01:02:04This is Dr. Dunbar's office.
01:02:07The doctor wants you to know your son is here.
01:02:10He came in just a few minutes ago.
01:02:16Yes, sir, that's all.
01:02:18Let's have some night, shall we?
01:02:24Night is the mother of thoughts, didn't somebody say?
01:02:27John, do you think it possible that you did it and forgot the details?
01:02:39It's just that I don't remember it at all.
01:02:41You're telling me that you did it.
01:02:44How can I say when I have no sense of guilt?
01:02:46But you think that you did it.
01:02:49It could have been me, yes.
01:02:51Then why not say that you did it, hmm?
01:02:54I don't know.
01:02:56I leave it to you.
01:03:00Do you remember the scarf?
01:03:03Yes, I do.
01:03:05The one you'd given her.
01:03:07What made you remember it?
01:03:09I saw it on another girl a few weeks ago.
01:03:11The same scarf?
01:03:12Not one just like it.
01:03:15What do you remember about the scarf?
01:03:19Rosemary had a scarf like that.
01:03:22When?
01:03:23That evening.
01:03:25What else do you remember about it?
01:03:28I can see her now.
01:03:31The scarf was so tight it was cutting into her neck.
01:03:34Yes?
01:03:37I don't want to think about it.
01:03:42When you were at the hospital, you were insane, weren't you?
01:03:48I must have been.
01:03:49In that case, do you agree that you must have been insane before you were committed to the hospital?
01:03:53I must have been.
01:03:54Do you think that you were so much out of your mind that you might have done it?
01:03:59It's possible.
01:03:59Would you say that I'm insane?
01:04:03No.
01:04:03I was the only one with you, wasn't I?
01:04:05Yes.
01:04:05Then if you were the only one who was insane, you were the one who did it.
01:04:10All right.
01:04:17If you tell me so.
01:04:22David.
01:04:24Did you actually see me do it?
01:04:27Yes.
01:04:32I'd gone for a walk.
01:04:34When I came back to the hilltop, you were right in the midst of it.
01:04:40Why didn't you stop me?
01:04:41I couldn't.
01:04:43I'll tell you why I couldn't.
01:04:45The shock.
01:04:47As if I plunged into icy water.
01:04:50My senses were numbed.
01:04:53I felt the blood rushing from my brain.
01:04:55I couldn't move.
01:04:56I wanted to, but I couldn't.
01:04:57I was petrified.
01:05:01Can you understand that?
01:05:05Yes.
01:05:08The same thing happened to me at the hospital when that poor fellow was strangled.
01:05:14Exactly the same thing.
01:05:20I did it.
01:05:47Stay where you are.
01:05:50Don't worry.
01:05:53I know now.
01:05:54I would have given myself up.
01:05:55That's what I had in mind all along.
01:05:56Sure you had.
01:05:57We believe you.
01:05:58We just came to give you transportation.
01:06:00It's a nice car waiting outside.
01:06:02The latest model.
01:06:03China flow, radio heater, even a telephone.
01:06:06How's that?
01:06:07Hold it.
01:06:13Feel better now?
01:06:20Summer rains may come and go, when to look for them.
01:06:32Summer rains may come and go, when to look for them, no one knows.
01:06:53Unexpected as love.
01:06:58Tell me.
01:07:00What's she got that I haven't got?
01:07:03Shh.
01:07:04I want to know.
01:07:06Later.
01:07:06As uncertain as life, the summer rains in the tropical heat.
01:07:19All life seems in vain, waiting for fate.
01:07:28A chick having trouble?
01:07:32The summer rains.
01:07:41Read it.
01:07:42You want me to read?
01:07:43Storm warnings?
01:07:45Storm warnings are up from Point Conception to Newport Beach.
01:07:48Small craft warnings are up until 9 p.m.
01:07:50Cut it.
01:07:51You asked me to read you something.
01:07:52What happened to the guy?
01:07:55What guy?
01:07:55The headline.
01:07:57They got him.
01:07:58I know that.
01:07:58How?
01:08:00His own father gave him away.
01:08:03Can you tie that?
01:08:04They found him in a doctor's office.
01:08:07A friend of his, too.
01:08:09She...
01:08:10I always say nice guys have nice friends.
01:08:17Time stands still.
01:08:20Days pass by.
01:08:24On and on.
01:08:26On and on.
01:08:27Tell me.
01:08:28Shh.
01:08:30Shh.
01:08:30Nothing.
01:08:31The last time I asked you, you said later.
01:08:33Well, it's later now, isn't it?
01:08:35It must be.
01:08:35It was earlier then.
01:08:38All I want to know is what she's got I haven't got.
01:08:43Summer rains.
01:08:44Always too few will wash away your blues.
01:09:03Too bad.
01:09:04Thanks.
01:09:09I'll tell you what she's got I haven't got.
01:09:12Nothing.
01:09:14Absolutely nothing.
01:09:16Satisfied?
01:09:18Plenty.
01:09:20Scotch.
01:09:21Quick.
01:09:22Another nightmare?
01:09:23Worse than that.
01:09:25This one you can't talk away.
01:09:26You know, you're a one-woman show.
01:09:35Even if you couldn't sing.
01:09:38What now?
01:09:40Nothing.
01:09:41That's bad.
01:09:42Nothing means plenty.
01:09:47You need any help?
01:09:49Besides this guy's?
01:09:52Thanks, Louie.
01:09:53There's a guy here.
01:09:54I know.
01:09:57Giving me the eye.
01:09:58That's right.
01:09:58Take a look if you don't believe me.
01:10:05Who is he?
01:10:06Silly question.
01:10:07I know the answer.
01:10:08You don't know.
01:10:09That's right, I don't.
01:10:10A cousin?
01:10:11No.
01:10:12Never saw this moose in my life.
01:10:14He wants an appointment.
01:10:15Find out.
01:10:16Whatever he is, he's a customer.
01:10:18I hope.
01:10:22Your name, Connie?
01:10:23That's what my mother tells me.
01:10:25What'll it be?
01:10:27Ezra's mine.
01:10:28Ezra Thompson.
01:10:29Glad to meet you.
01:10:29What'll it be?
01:10:31I'd like to talk to you, ma'am.
01:10:33All right, talk.
01:10:35Well, this is just between you and me.
01:10:39On the QT, huh?
01:10:40Under the belt.
01:10:42Well, listen, mister, don't go any further.
01:10:43Everything's public here, including the phone.
01:10:45Uh, prescribe me, old boy.
01:10:47Bring me a beer.
01:10:50Bye, tender.
01:10:52This guy gives me the creeps.
01:10:53He wants to talk.
01:10:55Imagine.
01:10:56He could be my grandfather.
01:10:57What else?
01:10:58A beer.
01:10:59Beat it.
01:10:59I'll handle it.
01:11:00Yeah.
01:11:00Hi, Pop.
01:11:03How are you this evening?
01:11:05The handle is Louie.
01:11:06Hey, I understand you want to chew the fat.
01:11:08I'm your man.
01:11:09Let's chew.
01:11:10It's fresh as paint, ain't you?
01:11:12The other way around, Pop.
01:11:14They call me Level Louie.
01:11:15Level, you get it?
01:11:16Everything on the up and up.
01:11:17Straight as a deck seam.
01:11:18All clammed up.
01:11:19That's me.
01:11:20Well, then save your steam.
01:11:21I want to talk to that girl.
01:11:24Hold on.
01:11:24She's pretty busy, Pop.
01:11:26You know how it is.
01:11:27I'll tell you what we'll do.
01:11:28You tell me, and I'll tell her.
01:11:32I'd call you a nitwit.
01:11:34I'm afraid you might say it ain't polite.
01:11:35You ain't gonna give us any trouble, are you, Pop?
01:11:37Maybe I will.
01:11:39I came 250 miles to see that filly.
01:11:43And that's how it's going to be.
01:11:45If not, I'm going to turn this moonshine parlor into a mashed potato.
01:11:50Now, don't think I'm chucking my weight around.
01:11:53No, no.
01:11:54Well, where I come from, they ripen with age.
01:11:58They get more powerful as they go on.
01:12:02Like old wine.
01:12:06Say no more, Pop.
01:12:07I know what you mean.
01:12:08You're after my own heart.
01:12:10You don't mince words.
01:12:11You play it fast and loose.
01:12:12Well, then what are you chirping about?
01:12:13Go and get her.
01:12:14Time's wasting, see?
01:12:15And I don't like waste.
01:12:19Connie!
01:12:21It all depends, I always say.
01:12:23It all depends on how you handle things.
01:12:25This way, that way, or the other way.
01:12:28You see what I mean, Pop?
01:12:29It all depends.
01:12:30Sit down, sugar.
01:12:36Pop's all right.
01:12:37In fact, he's okay.
01:12:39I mean it.
01:12:42Know him?
01:12:43Let me see that.
01:12:43I knew that guy.
01:12:47Sure you know.
01:12:48Your cousin.
01:12:49I told you he ain't.
01:12:50No more than he is.
01:12:51He was here last night, sitting right where your Pop.
01:12:53What did he say?
01:12:54He couldn't say much.
01:12:56I threw him out.
01:12:57Why, he thought you were his friend.
01:12:59That's why he came.
01:13:01Not that he was wrong.
01:13:03Don't you understand?
01:13:03I knew who he was.
01:13:04You did.
01:13:05I was afraid.
01:13:07What did you feel that way?
01:13:08Why didn't you go and collect the money?
01:13:12Why didn't you?
01:13:13I couldn't.
01:13:15See, when I first met him, he came in out of the night like a wounded deer.
01:13:20He was alone in the desert.
01:13:22Alone in the world.
01:13:24I felt for him.
01:13:25I felt for him badly.
01:13:27So did I.
01:13:28Yeah, but you threw him right back to the wolves.
01:13:29I didn't want to get mixed up.
01:13:30Well, I got mixed up.
01:13:31He worked for me.
01:13:33You mean you were hiding him?
01:13:34Well, if you want to be harsh about it.
01:13:36Well, you could get five years in the can.
01:13:38I know.
01:13:38I skipped the rules.
01:13:39But it just took a chance.
01:13:41Pop, let me shake your hand.
01:13:42That's something.
01:13:43I call that a deed.
01:13:45Is that the right word?
01:13:45What happens to you if he doubles up and squeals?
01:13:48Now, here's a yarn for you.
01:13:50An innocent man believed in an innocent man.
01:13:53The innocent man couldn't prove his innocence.
01:13:55That made him a criminal.
01:13:56And because of that, the other innocent man became a criminal.
01:13:59He believed.
01:14:00That's all he did wrong.
01:14:01Now, now, there's many ways.
01:14:04But only one a man can go.
01:14:06How do you know which is which?
01:14:08I had no more reason to help him than you have.
01:14:11In fact, I resented it.
01:14:13But what good did it do?
01:14:15Something told me no.
01:14:18And something else said yes.
01:14:22Let's call it faith.
01:14:24Got some?
01:14:25I go to church.
01:14:26Faith is the evidence of things not seen, says the Bible.
01:14:32Now, that's what I mean when I say that boy is not guilty.
01:14:35He couldn't be, not if you know him the way I do.
01:14:38But it says here he confessed for the first time.
01:14:40Oh, let him confess all over the place.
01:14:43Let him shout it from the rooftops.
01:14:45He's not guilty.
01:14:46He just ate and that's all there is to it.
01:14:49Bring us another drink.
01:14:50What are you going to have?
01:14:51Scotch for her.
01:14:52Same here.
01:14:52I need a good belt on the tonsils.
01:14:54This is rough.
01:14:56Don't worry, Pop.
01:14:57It's on the house.
01:15:00You're greener on the gills.
01:15:01It's awful.
01:15:02This isn't the end yet, miss.
01:15:04It isn't?
01:15:05Not if you help me.
01:15:07What can I do?
01:15:08Plenty.
01:15:09But you've got to have the stuff to do it.
01:15:11I get goose pimples when you talk like that.
01:15:13This will take care of the goose pimples.
01:15:15There's a man going by the boards who has as clean a vest as you or I.
01:15:19Mine ain't, Pop.
01:15:20I'm sorry to say.
01:15:21Well, his is anyhow.
01:15:23They're going to put that boy down for the count.
01:15:25You don't want that to happen, do you?
01:15:27I get you, Pop.
01:15:28I'm with you.
01:15:28I know.
01:15:29I know from experience.
01:15:31I want nothing to do with them cops.
01:15:32Cops and cousins.
01:15:34Ah, fool.
01:15:38Oh, Doc.
01:15:39Over here.
01:15:42We've been waiting for you.
01:15:44I want you to meet my friend, Dr. Gordon.
01:15:46This is John's doctor at the institution.
01:15:48What are you trying to do?
01:15:49Tell me I'm crazy?
01:15:50Somebody is, I have a notion, but it ain't you.
01:15:53I'm trying to help the boy, and the doctor's going to help me.
01:15:56I've got an idea.
01:15:58Maybe it'll work.
01:15:59Maybe it won't.
01:16:00We need you, miss.
01:16:01Ain't that cozy.
01:16:03Where do I come in?
01:16:04Who helps me?
01:16:04I will.
01:16:05You do like Pop says, Sugar.
01:16:09If you say so, Louie.
01:16:10I say so.
01:16:11Pop's my pal.
01:16:12Listen, miss.
01:16:13It's just a little trick.
01:16:14You'll manage.
01:16:15Don't worry.
01:16:16All you have to do is laugh.
01:16:17Laugh?
01:16:18Did you say laugh?
01:16:19That's right.
01:16:20Laugh about what?
01:16:21It doesn't matter.
01:16:22About nothing at all, if you want to.
01:16:24It's part of a performance.
01:16:25An act, so to speak.
01:16:27Understand?
01:16:28Did you hear that?
01:16:29I told you this guy thinks I got a leak in the attic.
01:16:31Who wants to laugh about nothing?
01:16:33Shut up.
01:16:34Why?
01:16:34This ain't a laughing matter.
01:16:36Shut up.
01:16:37Go on, Doc.
01:16:40I was called down here from Elcantor to examine John again, after his recapture.
01:16:45I understand, Doctor.
01:16:46I'll be perfectly frank with you, Dr. Dunbar.
01:16:49His confession struck me like a bombshell.
01:16:54For no reason that I could detect.
01:16:57He found his memory sufficiently restored.
01:17:01To admit the crime.
01:17:05John is my friend.
01:17:06I want to do anything I can.
01:17:07I don't think you can do a thing.
01:17:09He stands convicted and now he's confessed.
01:17:11He's talked himself right back into the gas chamber.
01:17:15What, in your opinion, brought about the confession?
01:17:18Would you say there was a link between the confession and the conversation you had with him?
01:17:23I'll make it easier for you, Doctor.
01:17:24John came here with one purpose.
01:17:28It had recurred to his mind that I was a witness to the tragedy.
01:17:33Who were you?
01:17:34Yes, I was.
01:17:35And I told him so.
01:17:37He then asked me why I didn't prevent him from doing what he did.
01:17:41A logical question, wouldn't you, sir?
01:17:43Perfectly.
01:17:44I explained to him that the horrible sight I was suddenly confronted with threw me into a mental coma.
01:17:50And he accepted that?
01:17:52He did?
01:17:53I understand you studied at London University.
01:17:58Yes, I did.
01:17:59I'm a Stanford man.
01:18:00Really?
01:18:00How interesting.
01:18:01From what I gather, there must be a vital difference in the interpretation of medical ideas between our two countries.
01:18:08I'm afraid I missed the point.
01:18:09I was taught that a shock reaction, such as the one you just described, simply doesn't exist.
01:18:16What do you mean?
01:18:17I mean, you're lying, Doctor.
01:18:21I mean, you're lying, Doctor.
01:18:51The understanding realization crippled his reflexes.
01:18:53That is not what he told me.
01:18:54He couldn't tell you because he's still not aware of it.
01:18:56But I can.
01:18:57I can tell you something else.
01:18:58You're the killer.
01:18:59And he's the witness to prove it.
01:19:04It's an interesting theory.
01:19:07I'm told they call Stanford the farm.
01:19:09I didn't know it was a detective farm.
01:19:13Let's investigate your contention for a moment, shall we?
01:19:16If he was the witness, why didn't he stop me?
01:19:21His mental health had been severely impaired.
01:19:23He didn't even know he was seeing anything.
01:19:25He'd been struck on the head with a sharp instrument.
01:19:27Is that what happened?
01:19:28The scars on his scalp are still there.
01:19:30They tell the story.
01:19:32What story?
01:19:33Those scars are the evidence of an injury which you received while attempting to subdue the girl.
01:19:37He fell and his head struck a rock.
01:19:39That's the story.
01:19:41The official story.
01:19:42It's on the record.
01:19:43It's on the record for lack of truth.
01:19:46The police didn't know any better.
01:19:48You do.
01:19:49I don't.
01:19:51But you think you do.
01:19:53I don't think.
01:19:53I know.
01:19:55I know you're lying, doctor.
01:20:04Is that all?
01:20:05Not quite.
01:20:06I also know your war record.
01:20:08I know you were confined in a psychopathic ward in Banstead, England in 1942 for six months.
01:20:14And again in 1943 for three months.
01:20:18As a soldier, is that necessarily something to be ashamed of?
01:20:21As a soldier, no.
01:20:23As a doctor, it might have proven an obstacle.
01:20:26It wasn't the California sunshine that made you settle down here.
01:20:30It was the need to camouflage your past.
01:20:34You're not a doctor, doctor.
01:20:36You're a mind reader.
01:20:37Where's your turban?
01:20:39You're not a doctor, doctor.
01:20:41You're a patient.
01:20:48Good evening, doctor.
01:20:49Good evening, doctor.
01:20:49I hope you're satisfied with yourself, doctor.
01:21:04Extremely so.
