00:01:59The End
00:02:29Remember Scotty?
00:02:31I remember
00:02:31Oh boy, when I die, I hope I go to Accra too
00:02:34I was there
00:02:35I'm in
00:02:36What are you doing here, Mr. Scott?
00:02:38Looking for a story
00:02:39Scotty's a newspaper man
00:02:41How many?
00:02:42Three
00:02:42Cards?
00:02:45I'll play these
00:02:46Look, cart from ambush
00:02:47Check
00:02:48Well, I'll bet a buck
00:02:51And I'll fold
00:02:53Call
00:02:54Carra Queens?
00:02:56I thought so, Asens
00:02:57You ought to know better than to try fooling our captain, only dames can do that
00:03:01Lieutenant Dykes, I promise you...
00:03:02Slip of the tongue, Captain
00:03:03What do you hear from the general, Scotty?
00:03:05Oh, you're General Fogarty's nursing his secrets like a June bride
00:03:08You know, I got an idea
00:03:09There's a guy in Seattle who knows a whole radar defense story, loves to talk
00:03:12General McLaren
00:03:13You tell General Fogarty you want to go to Seattle, and Pat and I will fly you there
00:03:17I met General McLaren, too
00:03:19Warm in Seattle
00:03:20They got girls there
00:03:21Without fur pants on
00:03:22What about it, Captain?
00:03:24I could be right
00:03:24You'll never be able to shoo our captain southward with his heart wrapped around the North Pole
00:03:29That'll do, Mr. McPherson
00:03:30What's going on at the North Pole?
00:03:31Some scientists are holding a convention up there
00:03:33Looking for polar bear tails
00:03:35Ever hear of Dr. Carrington?
00:03:36A fellow who is at Bikini?
00:03:38The same
00:03:38Well, they're holding about 2,000 miles north of here, a whole bunch
00:03:41Botanist, physicist, electronic
00:03:43Turning a pen-up girl
00:03:44Very interesting type, too
00:03:45Very
00:03:46Captain Henry can give you any data you want on her
00:03:48Ken, you probably shouldn't have said that
00:03:50You know how the captain feels
00:03:51Now look
00:03:52Someday I hope to have a navigator and a co-pilot who are at least dry behind the ears
00:03:57Oh, Captain
00:03:57You mail order it
00:03:59Captain Henry, report to General Fogarty's quarters at once, please
00:04:02Eight o'clock at night and a general yelling for his troops
00:04:06Sounds like the old days
00:04:08Take my hand, will you?
00:04:08Yeah
00:04:08Hey, Captain, if it amounts to anything, ring me in on it, will you, please?
00:04:13Sure
00:04:13I gotta get a story someplace
00:04:16Come in
00:04:21Close the door
00:04:24Yes, sir
00:04:25Good evening, sir
00:04:32Perhaps didn't take you long to get here
00:04:33Not many places around here to hide, sir
00:04:35Just got a queer message from your picnic party up north, from Dr. Carrington himself
00:04:39Believe an airplane unusual tide crash in our vicinity
00:04:43Please send facilities to investigate, most urgent
00:04:46What do you suppose you'd find up there besides a good-looking girl?
00:04:49I don't know, sir
00:04:50Any of our ships missing?
00:04:51No
00:04:51No Canadians, either
00:04:52Could be Russians, they're all over the pole like flies
00:04:55Don't get nervous, you're going
00:04:56Yes, sir
00:04:56Take along a dog team or anything you might need for rescue work
00:04:59Yes, sir
00:04:59Come in
00:05:00Didn't smash to the landing ski this time
00:05:02That was an unmovable accident, sir
00:05:03Yeah
00:05:04Well, look, I'll expect you back sometime tomorrow night
00:05:06Yes, sir
00:05:07And I'll close the door
00:05:08Just tell me what you'll find up there
00:05:09No one tells me anything around here
00:05:11Want some coffee?
00:05:29Okay, thanks
00:05:30Yes, sir
00:05:30Mr. Scott
00:05:41Coffee
00:05:42Oh, are we there?
00:05:44No, sir
00:05:45Hot coffee up front, sir
00:05:46Lieutenant
00:05:49Coffee, sir
00:05:50Sure it is
00:05:52Coffee?
00:05:55Yeah, thanks
00:05:55How far away from camp?
00:05:59Three hours, we slowed down
00:06:00A little headwind
00:06:01A little headwind?
00:06:03Close to 40 miles
00:06:05Our captain has some funny ideas about the north pole
00:06:07He thinks it's a garden spot
00:06:09Come and bring the kitty
00:06:10Now, look, don't you two guys start
00:06:12You know, Perry went to the north pole once
00:06:14He retired with a sack full of metals
00:06:16Hey, Pat
00:06:18We go there every three weeks
00:06:19Just like it was Lover's Lane
00:06:21Mr. Scott, some people seem to think
00:06:23Wait a minute
00:06:24Hello, Air Force 191-191
00:06:27From Polar Expedition 6
00:06:28Can you read me?
00:06:30Air Force 191
00:06:31Here are you, fine, Tex
00:06:32Go ahead
00:06:32What's your position?
00:06:34Three hours out
00:06:35Captain, switch over to your radio compass
00:06:38And check it against your magnetic heading
00:06:39What's on your mind, Tex?
00:06:42We've got some kind of disturbance up here
00:06:44And it's whacking away at everything
00:06:45Where do you figure it's from?
00:06:47Don't know
00:06:47We noticed it last night
00:06:48Six to eight degrees difference, Pat
00:06:50We're quite a bit off here, Tex
00:06:52You better home in on me
00:06:53I'll leave the key open
00:06:54Or would you rather have me sing to you?
00:06:56Leave the key open
00:06:57I was afraid you'd say that
00:06:59Hey, taxpayers ought to see this
00:07:29I'll leave the key open
00:07:59I'll leave the key open
00:08:29Hello, Doctor, Professor
00:08:50Can I bet you forgot my head
00:09:01I'm practically at the North Pole
00:09:03Looks more like my old Kentucky home
00:09:05Mr. Scott, Mrs. Chapman
00:09:06Pleasure, Mr. Santa
00:09:07Hello, Doctor
00:09:07Nice to see you
00:09:08Dr. Chapman, Mr. Scott
00:09:10Hello
00:09:10Scotty's a newspaper man
00:09:12You've come in at an opportune time, Mr. Scott
00:09:14Well, I just happened to be in Anchorage
00:09:15When your message came through
00:09:16I hope you have a good story
00:09:18No more than you probably know already
00:09:19Nothing more at all, huh?
00:09:20Nothing but discussions as to what it might be
00:09:22We all have different ideas
00:09:24There's been quite an argument about it
00:09:25Where's Dr. Carrington?
00:09:26He's in the lab
00:09:27Now, see you later
00:09:27Dr. Chapman, does that mean that you've actually seen...
00:09:29Riley? Coffee, Captain?
00:09:30No, thanks, I'll be back
00:09:31Our captain seems in a hurry, Lee
00:09:32Yeah
00:09:33Where do you two think you're going?
00:09:35Where with you?
00:09:35We want to tell her that was an awful way to treat our captain
00:09:37Of course, if you don't want us to go
00:09:38We don't want to go
00:09:39I'm going to get even with you two guys some day
00:09:41We've got a picture
00:09:42Come in
00:09:51Hi, Pat
00:09:54Welcome to our igloo
00:09:55How was your...
00:09:56Well...
00:10:00How was your trip?
00:10:02It was all right
00:10:03Not usual
00:10:04Well, that's fine
00:10:06I think Dr. Carrington wants to see you
00:10:09Dr. Carrington's going to have to wait
00:10:10I want to talk to you
00:10:11What about?
00:10:11There was a downright dirty trick you played on me
00:10:13Now, Pat, don't lose your temper
00:10:14Why did you do it?
00:10:15Just tell me why
00:10:15Well, your legs aren't very pretty
00:10:19And I didn't...
00:10:19I didn't have to write it on a note
00:10:20And put it on my chest
00:10:21Other people got up before I did
00:10:22I'm sorry, Pat
00:10:23I really didn't...
00:10:23Only six people read that note before I woke up
00:10:25Now the whole Air Force is laughing at me
00:10:26Not so loud, they'll hear you
00:10:28They've probably already heard
00:10:29The only place it hasn't been is on a billboard
00:10:30Ooh, I didn't know you had such a nasty temper
00:10:33Now, Pat, just careful
00:10:36Now, thank you
00:10:37Now, wait a minute
00:10:38We had a lot of fun when you were up here
00:10:42And then when you asked me down to Anchorage
00:10:44You deliberately fed me a lot of...
00:10:45Tell me something
00:10:46Did you really drink all those drinks?
00:10:47Mm-hmm
00:10:47You didn't throw any away or anything?
00:10:49Not a one?
00:10:50No
00:10:50Holy cat
00:10:51I thought I was good
00:10:53And another thing
00:10:53Why did you leave?
00:10:55When I woke up in the morning, you were gone
00:10:56Well, I told you I had to take that cargo plane back here
00:10:59You told me?
00:11:01Don't you remember?
00:11:02No
00:11:02Right after dinner
00:11:05You were telling me all about a night in San Francisco
00:11:08Did I hear that?
00:11:09You were...
00:11:09Mm-hmm
00:11:10Oh
00:11:10What else did I do?
00:11:13Well, you had moments of kind of making like an octopus
00:11:17I never thought of many hands in all my life
00:11:19All right, all right
00:11:20Look, my only excuse is that I liked you
00:11:25Right away
00:11:26So I started wrong
00:11:28Can't we begin all over?
00:11:29Can't we...
00:11:30How would you begin?
00:11:32Well, I can think of several
00:11:33Never mind
00:11:34We don't have time for that now anyway
00:11:36I know Dr. Carrington's waiting to see you
00:11:39What about this business is starting over again?
00:11:47We'll talk about that later
00:11:48Hello, Captain
00:11:52Dr. Carrington, Captain Henry's here
00:12:08Yes, I know
00:12:09How do you do, Captain?
00:12:10Doctor
00:12:11Miss Nicholson, would you add a note to the others?
00:12:14Sure
00:12:14November 2nd
00:12:1611.30 a.m
00:12:19Deviation in Sector 19
00:12:22Continues 12 degrees
00:12:2320 minutes east
00:12:24No lessening or wavering of disturbing element
00:12:28That's all
00:12:29Well, Captain, can we start now?
00:12:33Do you mind telling me where we're going, Doctor?
00:12:3448 miles view east from here
00:12:36You must have said an airplane crash
00:12:37Is that what we're looking for?
00:12:39I don't know, Captain
00:12:40I think you'd better explain, Doctor
00:12:41Oh, I'm sorry
00:12:42Miss Nicholson, would you read Captain Henry
00:12:44My first notes?
00:12:45I was thinking only of the vagueness of my information
00:12:47I dislike being vague
00:12:49November 1st
00:12:51Yesterday
00:12:526.15 p.m
00:12:53Sound detectors and seismographs registered explosion due east
00:12:57At 6.18, magnetometer revealed deviation 12 degrees, 20 minutes east
00:13:01That deviation has been constant
00:13:03We ran into it just before we reached here
00:13:04Such deviation possible only if a disturbing force
00:13:07Equivalent to 20,000 tons of steel or iron ore
00:13:1020,000 tons?
00:13:11Have become part of the earth at about a 50-mile radius
00:13:14You're getting a bit beyond me, but it sounds like a meteor, doesn't it, Doctor?
00:13:17Yes, very much
00:13:18Except for one thing
00:13:19We'll show it to Captain Henry
00:13:21Oh, yes, sir
00:13:22We have some special telescopic cameras
00:13:26On the appearance of radioactivity, a Geiger countertrips the release and the camera's function
00:13:31They were working last evening
00:13:32This is the result
00:13:34This first picture was taken three minutes before the explosion
00:13:41Oh, 6.12
00:13:42You can see the small dot low there in the corner
00:13:45On the next picture
00:13:48One minute later
00:13:49That dot is moving from west to east
00:13:51Moving fast enough to form a streak
00:13:53What should this be we're using?
00:13:54Thousands of a second
00:13:54Moving pretty fast, wasn't it?
00:13:56Here at 6.14, it's moving upward
00:14:006.15, it drops to the earth and vanishes
00:14:06A meteor might move almost horizontal to the earth, but never upward
00:14:11But it isn't a meteor?
00:14:12That's obvious
00:14:13How do you determine the distance to the point of impact from here?
00:14:15By computation
00:14:16Ready?
00:14:17That's quite simple, Captain
00:14:18We have the time of arrival of the sound waves and the detectors
00:14:23And also the arrival time of the impact waves and the seismograph
00:14:26By computing the difference, it becomes quite obvious
00:14:29That they were caused by the traveling object
00:14:31And the distance from here is approximately 48 miles
00:14:33You lost me, I'll take your word for it
00:14:35One thing, Doctor
00:14:3620,000 tons of steel is an awful lot of metal for an airplane
00:14:39It is for the sort of airplane we know, Captain
00:14:41Yeah, we better be going
00:14:44I thought you'd think so
00:14:45Reading will check every quarter of hours
00:14:46What do you want me, Doctor?
00:14:47No, it won't be necessary, Mr. Littman
00:14:49Do you come to this field?
00:14:51Yes, Doctor
00:14:51We'll be there pretty soon now, Pat
00:15:08Bob, get carrying it up here
00:15:11Doctor
00:15:13We're almost 50 miles out, Doctor
00:15:21With your compass deviation, how are you navigating, Captain?
00:15:25That peak ahead is practically due east
00:15:27We got the wind before we left camp
00:15:29Very good, Captain
00:15:30We should be there about now, Pat
00:15:31Ten
00:15:33Nine
00:15:34Eight
00:15:35Seven
00:15:36Six
00:15:37Picking up something on the Geiger counter, sir
00:15:39Four
00:15:40Three
00:15:41Two
00:15:42One
00:15:44Look there
00:15:45Pat, the compass is in a spin
00:15:51Geiger's up to the top
00:15:52Yeah, that's it, all right
00:15:57You see some place to sit down
00:16:02Looks smooth about a half a mile back
00:16:04We'll take a look
00:16:04Bob
00:16:05Yes, sir
00:16:05Get them ready, it might be rough
00:16:07Right, sir
00:16:07Fasten your seatbelts, gentlemen
00:16:09We're going to land
00:16:10Sit down and hold on back there
00:16:12All set for landing, sir

00:17:01Half laps
00:17:02there we are holy cat what a weird looking thing let me get a picture before you track up the
00:17:29whole place this guy you're kind of going crazy something smell of that surface crust that's
00:17:34frozen over again and clear eyes the bottle shape apparently was caused by the aircraft first
00:17:38making contact with the earth out there at the neck of the bottle sliding toward us and forming
00:17:43that larger areas it came to rest with the engine or engines generating enough heat to melt that
00:17:48path through the crust then sink beneath the surface what could melt that much ice let's get
00:17:52out and see barnes leave the dogs over on that side dr. chapman could an airplane melt that much ice
00:18:11one of our own jets generates enough heat warm a 50-story office building
00:18:15it's part of an airfoil probably a stabilizer of some sort it's an airplane all right worries can
00:18:31you tell what metal that is i'll need some tools barnes bring some tools
00:18:35hey it's down pretty deep over here i can't see anything but a dark mass it's deeper over here
00:18:45captain may i suggest that we spread out and try to determine the size and shape right spread out
00:18:50everybody we're going to try to figure out the shape of this thing
00:18:53holy cats hey it's almost yeah almost a perfect it is it's wrong
00:19:22we finally got one we found a flying saucer can anybody see anything through the ice where you
00:19:30are only an outline nothing but a dark shape there beams perfectly smooth no doors or windows
00:19:35i can't see any engine i doubt if we find anything we call an engine dr carrington
00:19:39this isn't any metal i know probably some new alloy get some filings for analysis right captain
00:19:50i don't think we have a chance of chopping through the ice with axes i know doctor we think so too
00:19:54we're going to try to melt it out with thermite bombs oh excellent doctor where do you figure it's
00:19:58from i don't know mr scott well from this planet i doubt it well then do you think that the answers
00:20:03to your questions will be much easier after we've examined the interior of the aircraft it's
00:20:07occupants if there are any occupants why never what a story where's every hey barn hold it scott
00:20:14sorry no private messages what do you mean private i'm going to send it to the whole world
00:20:17i wish you could but this is air force information we'll have to wait for authority to let you file

00:22:54ship only a trace that's just residual
00:22:59it's all gone secrets it might have given us a new science
00:23:03gone that's just dandy standard operating procedure
00:23:08i should have thought you sure should greatest discovery in history up in flame turning a new
00:23:13civilization into a fourth of july peace
00:23:15captain captain i'm getting something over here probably a fragment from the saucer you may salvage
00:23:24something yeah
00:23:32hold it everybody i'm getting a reaction let me get a reading
00:23:35getting warm
00:23:38Hotter now.
00:23:50Here's where it's coming from.
00:23:56What is it?
00:23:57Looks like a man.
00:23:58Yeah, it's got legs and a head.
00:23:59I can see him.
00:24:00Yeah, he must be over eight feet long.
00:24:03Somebody got out of that saucer.
00:24:04Got out or was thrown out and frozen fast
00:24:06before he could get clear.
00:24:08A man from Mars.
00:24:10How do you propose getting him out, Captain?
00:24:11I don't know.
00:24:12Use more thermite.
00:24:13Not this guy.
00:24:13Whatever's with us.
00:24:14We don't have much time.
00:24:15Here's some axes you can chomp around
00:24:17and put the whole block in the sled
00:24:18and take it to the plane.
00:24:19I agree with that.
00:24:20Get started.
00:24:20Give me room.
00:24:21Bob, clear the sled off and bring it over here.
00:24:24Eddie, get the ship warmed up.
00:24:26And be ready to get out of here in a hurry.
00:24:38Pat, I think we made a mistake.
00:24:57What do you mean?
00:24:57Do you ever read this?
00:24:59Department of Defense, Office of Public Information, Washington, D.C., December 27, 1949.
00:25:05Bulletin 629-49 regarding item 6700, extract 75,131.
00:25:11The Air Force has discontinued investigating and evaluating reported flying saucers
00:25:16on the basis that there is no evidence.
00:25:18Probably make you a general for just drawing evidence that they're wrong.
00:25:21The Air Force said that all evidence indicates that the reports of unidentified flying objects
00:25:26are the result of one misinterpretation of various conventional objects.
00:25:30It doesn't look very conventional to me.
00:25:32Second, a mild form of mass hysteria.
00:25:35That'd be when General Fogarty got to shaking hands with that thing in the ice.
00:25:41What are the other reasons?
00:25:43Third, that they're jokes.
00:25:45Why don't you say the number that bulletin was?
00:25:48629-49, item 6700, extract 75,131.
00:25:54Oh.
00:25:55Oh, that one.
00:26:02Oh, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one, that one,
00:26:32Get on that rope, Professor.
00:26:47Watch your feet.
00:26:50Watch your feet.
00:26:52Hold it there!
00:26:56Hold it!
00:27:01Pull back there!
00:27:06Keep tight on that rope!
00:27:08Easy, huh?
00:27:10Keep it going!
00:27:13Whoa!
00:27:14Take it easy.
00:27:17Can't see through the ice too good.
00:27:20Good enough to know that where he came from, they sure don't breed him for beauty.
00:27:24Well, what are we doing now? They frost him?
00:27:27This ice will melt pretty soon.
00:27:29Doctor, can you control the heat in this room?
00:27:31No, Captain. This is our store room. The temperature is constant here.
00:27:34It won't be necessary to melt the ice. We can probably chip it away.
00:27:37I'm sorry, Professor. We're not going to melt it or chip it.
00:27:39Eddie, open that window, will you?
00:27:40You mean we're not allowed to examine it?
00:27:42I mean just that, Doctor.
00:27:43This is stupid.
00:27:44You're a scientist.
00:27:46And Dr. Carrington's in charge here.
00:27:47Hey, Pat, these windows aren't open.
00:27:49It's practically certain we'll be asked by your superiors to make a study of it.
00:27:52Probably will, Doctor, but we can't permit it now.
00:27:54We don't have to have any permission.
00:27:55Eddie, break that window.
00:27:56All right.
00:28:00Sorry.
00:28:01I already pulled one boner out there in the ice.
00:28:03I'll admit I know anything about this.
00:28:05But until I receive instructions from my superior officer on what to do, we'll just have to mark time.
00:28:09Captain, you have no authority.
00:28:10Well, I'd like to talk about it further.
00:28:12We'd better do it in the corridor.
00:28:13It's going to get pretty cold in here.
00:28:14The last is a very sensible suggestion, Captain.
00:28:17Come along.
00:28:18Mac?
00:28:19Yeah?
00:28:20Please stay here.
00:28:21We'll take four hour shifts.
00:28:22And it's hands off for everyone, understand?
00:28:24Yes, sir.
00:28:25Will it be warm enough?
00:28:26If I'm not, you'll hear me squawking.
00:28:27Bob will bring us some dinner.
00:28:28I could use something to read.
00:28:30Nice, quiet horror story.
00:28:32Might be contained for you, sir.
00:28:35Well, gentlemen.
00:28:39Captain Henry.
00:28:40Excuse me, Doctor.
00:28:41May I?
00:28:42Excuse me.
00:28:43Captain, in relation to removing the body from the ice, I'd like to point out
00:28:46there are organisms that survive after death.
00:28:48What cold can destroy them?
00:28:50Now, in view of that...
00:28:51Doctor, I don't know any...
00:28:52On the other hand, these same organisms may be dangerous.
00:28:54They may be carrying disease germs from another planet.
00:28:57Germs we couldn't cope with medically.
00:28:59No, I can't agree with you, Doctor Chapman.
00:29:01I don't either.
00:29:02Well, here's another.
00:29:03I don't know what effect the air of our earth may have on this creature's remains.
00:29:07Sort of, uh, go up in smoke, like the saucer, huh?
00:29:09Nonsense, saucer.
00:29:10Isn't that a little far-fetched?
00:29:11So is a man from Mars.
00:29:12Gentlemen.
00:29:13We're getting nowhere.
00:29:14We're consistent.
00:29:15I suggest that Captain Henry communicate with his superior at once.
00:29:18Certainly doesn't.
00:29:19Actually, see now, we should have done that first thing.
00:29:22I'm surprised, Captain, that you didn't try to reach your general on our way back here.
00:29:26We did.
00:29:27Barnes.
00:29:28I tried to send a message through your radar operator, sir.
00:29:30Couldn't get through this time.
00:29:31Too much interference.
00:29:32I see.
00:29:33My apologies, Captain.
00:29:34Yes, Doctor.
00:29:37Hi, Captain.
00:29:38Hi, Tex.
00:29:39You sure set up a fine lot of trouble.
00:29:41Sorry, Tex, we're in a hurry.
00:29:42Did you send out my message?
00:29:43Sure did.
00:29:44Did you get an answer back?
00:29:45This came about an hour ago.
00:29:46Can you read it?
00:29:47No, you better.
00:29:48Withhold newspaper story until permission from Air Force HQ.
00:29:51There you are, Scotty.
00:29:52Oh, fine.
00:29:53Now somebody else will get that out, Scotty.
00:29:55Remove aircraft from ice at once.
00:29:57Use thermite bombs if necessary to melt ice.
00:30:00Oh, that's what I like about the Army.
00:30:02Smart all the way to the top.
00:30:04Well, Captain, I'd let you off the hook for the thermite deal.
00:30:06Take it easy, Scotty.
00:30:07Go ahead, Tex.
00:30:08Temporary structure to protect aircraft until my arrival.
00:30:12And here's another one.
00:30:13Came a few minutes ago.
00:30:14Could only get part of it.
00:30:15Go ahead.
00:30:16Everything grounded can't join you, something or other.
00:30:18Won't you, something or other, advise immediately.
00:30:20That sounds like Fogarty.
00:30:21And then it got really fouled up.
00:30:23You mean you're not getting anything?
00:30:24Not a thing.
00:30:25Static's knocking it right out of the air.
00:30:26Voice and keyboard.
00:30:27What about your stuff?
00:30:28Don't know if they're getting it or not.
00:30:29I doubt it.
00:30:30I don't believe it.
00:30:31Even the Pony Express got through.
00:30:32Well, Doctor?
00:30:33In view of this new situation, I suggest...
00:30:35Doesn't offer the old ones, sir.
00:30:36We don't agree with you, Captain.
00:30:37There's no reason to delay this.
00:30:39That's it.
00:30:40Tex, I'd like to leave Barnes here to help out all he can.
00:30:42Sure, Captain.
00:30:43Barnes, keep trying to get through.
00:30:45I want to get a message to the General.
00:30:46Yes, sir.
00:30:47Tell him the aircraft was completely destroyed by the thermite bomb.
00:30:50Tell him we found a passenger at the wreck.
00:30:52You got a fellow from Mars?
00:30:53Where?
00:30:54On ice, buddy, on ice.
00:30:55Tell him we're keeping the body in a block of ice,
00:30:56and Doctor Carrington wants permission to remove the body from the ice for examination.
00:31:00We're standing by for instruction before further action.
00:31:03Yes, sir.
00:31:04You got anything to add to that, Doctor?
00:31:05Yes, one very essential point.
00:31:07That I consider it vitally important that the examination be made.
00:31:10By all he means.
00:31:11Yeah.
00:31:12Have that, Barnes.
00:31:13Thank you, Captain.
00:31:14That's all that concerns me.
00:31:16Richards, when you get your answer, I'll expect you to let me know.
00:31:18Yes, Doctor.
00:31:20When will I interview the doctor about what he thinks of you?
00:31:26Well, it'll be pretty good.
00:31:27If it isn't, I'll make it good.
00:31:29Techs keep trying.
00:31:30Barnes, if he gets through, ask the General again about clearing Mr. Scott.
00:31:33Yes, try to soft-soap me. I don't like you any better.
00:31:35Bye, Lieutenant, Scott.
00:31:36I'll leave with you, Eddie.
00:31:37Send you boys back some chow.
00:31:39What is it about?
00:31:44I don't like to bother you like this, Captain.
00:31:46It's about Lieutenant Buck first and sitting in there with that thing in that block of ice.
00:31:49You're getting nervous.
00:31:50Well, he wouldn't want me to tell you, sir, but he's having kittens.
00:31:54I haven't heard him squawk like this since we were over wrecking.
00:31:57Really?
00:31:58You see, sir, the ice is clearing up and we can see that thing pretty good now.
00:32:02It's got crazy hands and no hair.
00:32:05And the eyes, well, they're open and they look like they can see.
00:32:09Bob, I haven't heard you.
00:32:10Oh, it's got me too, sir, and I wasn't in there very long.
00:32:13Besides that, it's pretty cold.
00:32:15I got the Lieutenant an electric blanket.
00:32:17Good.
00:32:18Captain, I got a suggestion.
00:32:21Go ahead.
00:32:22Well, now, instead of these four-houry shifts, we could cut them in half, you see.
00:32:25Oh, okay.
00:32:26You tell Barnes to take over in a half an hour at 2,200.
00:32:29You take over at 2,400 and I'll relieve you at 0,200.
00:32:32I think you're right, sir.
00:32:33I think you are.
00:32:34Yes, sir.
00:32:35Thanks, sir.
00:32:36Hi, Pat.
00:32:39Hi.
00:32:40Barnes just got here.
00:32:41Sure got.
00:32:42I'm not looking at that guy anymore.
00:32:43You all set, Barnes?
00:32:44Yes, sir.
00:32:45Got an electric flying suit and a pot of coffee.
00:32:47Bob will relieve you at 2,400.
00:32:48Right, sir.
00:32:49Take it easy.
00:32:50Yeah.
00:32:51Oh, no, sir.
00:32:52Oh, no, I don't know that I'm right.
00:32:54Oh, my God.
00:32:55Oh, no.
00:32:56Oh.
00:32:59Oh, no.
00:33:01Oh, no.
00:33:05Oh!
00:33:13Oh, no.
00:33:15Oh, no!
00:33:16That's better.
00:33:46That's better.
00:34:16What's the matter, Corporal?
00:34:37Dr. Chapman, where's the captain?
00:34:39I've got to tell him, I've got to tell him that thing's alive.
00:34:41I saw it, sir.
00:34:42Chase me, that thing's alive.
00:34:44It's not dead.
00:34:44It's Captain Henry.
00:34:47That thing's alive, sir.
00:34:48I saw it.
00:34:49I shot at it.
00:34:50I hit it.
00:34:50I know I hit it.
00:34:51Nothing happened.
00:34:52It just kept coming at me, making a noise like a cat viewing.
00:34:54Captain, it was awful.
00:34:55If you could have seen those hands and those eyes.
00:34:57Captain, you've got to do something about it.
00:34:59You've got...
00:35:00Matt, Bob, get some guns.
00:35:05Yes, sir.
00:35:05Now, Barnes, what happened?
00:35:06I'm sorry, sir.
00:35:08I don't know exactly.
00:35:09But all of a sudden, it was out of me.
00:35:10It's been alive and coming at me.
00:35:12I shot at it and hit it.
00:35:13Nothing happened, so I slammed the door.
00:35:15Easy.
00:35:16Easy.
00:35:16I'm sorry, sir.
00:35:17Hey, I can't help.
00:35:18Eddie, take care of him, will you?
00:35:20You're all right.
00:35:21Get back here, please.
00:35:29Get back to the restaurant.
00:35:47What could have...
00:35:48The kid said he was alive.
00:35:50And I believe it.
00:35:51I knew it.
00:35:52All the time I was here, I could feel it.
00:35:54Here's what did it.
00:35:55This blanket was on and it still wore.
00:36:03Get out of here, all right?
00:36:04Get some parkas and boots and bring a flashlight.
00:36:07Listen.
00:36:08Don't tear him to pieces.
00:36:10We can save him.
00:36:11Hold it, doctor.
00:36:11You must be crazy.
00:36:12Five minutes, use your head.
00:36:15Expect your eyes, Captain.
00:36:16I was a little over-anches.
00:36:17Look over here, Captain.
00:36:20All right, I think I got yours.
00:36:28May I have one, Captain?
00:36:29All right, let's go, doctor.
00:36:33Hey, Doc, can you see anything out there?
00:36:35Not much.
00:36:39You all set?
00:36:40There you go.
00:36:40All right, let's go.
00:36:50I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
00:37:20I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
00:37:50It was too cold to see well, but the dogs had him down tearing at him.
00:37:53Yeah, I saw him get up with three of them hanging on his arm.
00:37:55Then he threw one dog at the rest.
00:37:57When he got there, two of them were dead.
00:37:58They looked like they'd been through a chopper.
00:37:59Where did you find the arm?
00:38:01It was partly under one of them, wasn't it?
00:38:03Could dogs tear off an arm?
00:38:06It's kind of an arm.
00:38:09Be careful, Doctor.
00:38:09Those barbs, or whatever they are, are very sharp.
00:38:12Seems to be a sort of chitinous substance.
00:38:13You can see, Mr. Carter.
00:38:14Something between a beetle's back and a rose thorn.
00:38:17Storm-fingered, huh?
00:38:19Amazingly strong.
00:38:19Very effective if used as a weapon.
00:38:21You don't have to worry about that.
00:38:23With an arm off, now I'm that cold.
00:38:25He's dead now.
00:38:26He got a long hour right in a block of ice for every 24 hours.
00:38:28Pretty spry for a guy with 12 dogs on him.
00:38:31After losing an arm.
00:38:32In my mind.
00:38:33Amazing, isn't it?
00:38:35Amazingly strong.
00:38:37Strange.
00:38:37Strange.
00:38:38No.
00:38:39I'm sure of it.
00:38:40There is blood on the hand, isn't it, Doctor?
00:38:42Yes, but not his blood.
00:38:44Probably from one of the dogs.
00:38:45There's no blood in the arm.
00:38:46No animal tissue.
00:38:49Doctor Stern.
00:38:51Do you have a look at this under the microscope?
00:38:52Mm-hmm.
00:38:56No, Mr. Scott.
00:38:57I doubt very much if it can die.
00:38:59As we understand dying.
00:39:02Cats.
00:39:02Yes.
00:39:05Well, Doctor?
00:39:05No arterial structure indicated.
00:39:10No nerve endings visible.
00:39:14Porous, unconnected cellular growth.
00:39:17Just a minute.
00:39:17Imagine.
00:39:18Just a minute, Doctor.
00:39:20It sounds like you're trying to describe a vegetable.
00:39:22I am.
00:39:23Are you getting all of these...
00:39:24Oh, for Pete's sake.
00:39:26Quiet, Mr. Scott.
00:39:26You know, Doctor,
00:39:28that could be why the bullets fired by Sergeant Barnes
00:39:30had no seeming effect.
00:39:31That's right.
00:39:32Merely holes drilled into vegetable matter.
00:39:34This green fluid here.
00:39:36Like plant sap.
00:39:38We'll probably find it as it should have been.
00:39:40Please, Doctor.
00:39:41I've got to ask this.
00:39:41Mr. Scott?
00:39:42It sounds like, well,
00:39:44just as though you're describing
00:39:45some form of super carrot.
00:39:48That's nearly right, Mr. Scott.
00:39:51This carrot, as you call it,
00:39:52has constructed an aircraft
00:39:54capable of flying some millions of miles
00:39:56through space,
00:39:57propelled by a force
00:39:58as yet unknown to us.
00:40:00An intellectual carrot.
00:40:01But the mind boggles.
00:40:03Shouldn't.
00:40:04Imagine how strange
00:40:05it would have seemed
00:40:06during the Pliocene Age
00:40:07to forecast that
00:40:08worms, fish,
00:40:10lizards that crawled over the Earth
00:40:12were going to evolve into us.
00:40:14Look, Doctor...
00:40:14On the planet from which our visitor came,
00:40:16vegetable life underwent an evolution
00:40:18similar to that of our own animal life,
00:40:21which would account for
00:40:22the superiority of its brain.
00:40:24Doctor Carrington...
00:40:24Its development was
00:40:25not handicapped by emotional
00:40:27or sexual factors.
00:40:29Doctor Carrington,
00:40:30you're a man who won the Nobel Prize.
00:40:32You've received every kind
00:40:33of international kudos
00:40:34a scientist can attain.
00:40:36If you were for sale,
00:40:37I could get a million bucks
00:40:38for you from any foreign government.
00:40:40I'm not, therefore,
00:40:41going to stick my neck out
00:40:42and say that you're stuffed
00:40:43absolutely clean full
00:40:44of wild blueberry muffins.
00:40:46But I promise you
00:40:47my readers are going to think so.
00:40:49Not for long, Mr. Scott.
00:40:51Not if they happen to know anything
00:40:52about the flora
00:40:53of their own planet.
00:40:54You mean there are vegetables
00:40:55right here on Earth
00:40:57that can think?
00:40:58A certain kind of thinking, yes.
00:41:01You ever hear of
00:41:01the telegraph vine?
00:41:03Not recently, are they...
00:41:05Is it the acanthus
00:41:06century plant, Dr. Stern?
00:41:08Yes.
00:41:08Go ahead, Doctor.
00:41:09It's your field.
00:41:10Well, the century plant
00:41:12catches mice, bats,
00:41:14squirrels,
00:41:14any small mammals.
00:41:16Uses a sweet syrup as bait.
00:41:18Then holds on to its catch
00:41:20and feeds on it.
00:41:21May I have a sniper, please?
00:41:21What's the telegraph vine?
00:41:23Well, a vine research
00:41:24has proven can signal
00:41:25to other vines
00:41:26of the same species.
00:41:27Vines 20 to, well,
00:41:29100 miles away.
00:41:30Intelligence in plants
00:41:31and vegetables
00:41:32is an old story, Mr. Scott.
00:41:34Older even than the
00:41:35animal arrogance
00:41:36that has overlooked it.
00:41:37That's one for Ripley.
00:41:38Look here.
00:41:39I took this from under
00:41:40the soft tissue
00:41:41in the palm of the hand.
00:41:45Seed pot.
00:41:45Seed pot.
00:41:46Yes, the neat
00:41:48and unconfused
00:41:49reproductive technique
00:41:50of vegetation.
00:41:52No pain or pleasure
00:41:53as we know them.
00:41:55No emotions.
00:41:57No heart.
00:41:59Our superior.
00:42:01Our superior in every way.
00:42:04Gentlemen,
00:42:05do you realize
00:42:05what we've found?
00:42:07A being from another world
00:42:08as different from us
00:42:09as one pole
00:42:10from the other.
00:42:11if we can only
00:42:13communicate with it,
00:42:14we can learn secrets
00:42:16that have been hidden
00:42:16from mankind
00:42:17since the beginning of...
00:42:19Holy cat.
00:42:32It's moving.
00:42:34Miss Nicholson.
00:42:35Yes, Doctor?
00:42:37At 12.10 a.m.,
00:42:38the hand became alive.
00:42:41The temperature
00:42:43of a forearm
00:42:44showed a 20-degree rise.
00:42:48Because of this
00:42:48rise in temperature,
00:42:49I believe it was able
00:42:50to ingest the canine blood
00:42:52with which it was covered.
00:42:54I believe that this...
00:42:55Hey, man.
00:42:56You mean it lives on blood?
00:43:00This is the best
00:43:01we could find, Pat.
00:43:02This doesn't work.
00:43:02I don't know what will.
00:43:03Where are you going, Captain?
00:43:04Find our visitor,
00:43:05if we can.
00:43:06One moment, Captain.
00:43:09Captain.
00:43:09Bob and Mac,
00:43:10check the store room again.
00:43:11Both in the outside door.
00:43:12Captain,
00:43:13when you find
00:43:14what you're looking for,
00:43:15remember it's a stranger
00:43:16in a strange land.
00:43:17The only crimes involved
00:43:18were those committed against it.
00:43:20The store woke from a block of ice,
00:43:21was attacked by dogs,
00:43:23shot by a frightened man.
00:43:24All I want
00:43:25is a chance
00:43:26to communicate with it.
00:43:27Doctor, you can do
00:43:27anything you want with it,
00:43:28provided it's locked up
00:43:29in a safe place.
00:43:30Nothing in here, Pat.
00:43:30Captain,
00:43:31if we catch up
00:43:32with our pal,
00:43:32give me a chance
00:43:33to get a picture
00:43:33before somebody
00:43:34makes a salad of him,
00:43:34huh?
00:43:35Sure, Scotty.
00:43:35Nothing in love.
00:43:36Bob, get up with it.
00:43:42Hey, what's up?
00:43:43Looks like a lynching party.
00:43:44Any visitors?
00:43:45None is sold.
00:43:46Captain,
00:43:47I got part of a message
00:43:48from the general.
00:43:48He said to wait
00:43:49on Mr. Scott's story.
00:43:50Yes, Inspector.
00:43:50Oh, what's the difference?
00:43:52Nothing's going on anyway.
00:43:53Let's get out of here.
00:43:53Hey, what are you guys
00:43:54looking for?
00:43:55Who couldn't come in here?
00:43:56Who couldn't come in?
00:43:57Man from Mars.
00:43:58You mean he's alive
00:43:58and running around loose?
00:43:59Keep your door locked,
00:44:00text,
00:44:00and watch where you let in.
00:44:01Use your fire axe
00:44:02if you have to.
00:44:02Gun's no good.
00:44:03What do you mean a gun?
00:44:04No good, now look.
00:44:04Getty.
00:44:13Hold it, Captain.
00:44:34There's something in here,
00:44:38all right?
00:44:38No, you're a little off base.
00:44:40That's the minerality lab.
00:44:42We've got radioactive isotopes
00:44:43in there.
00:44:44Your Geiger's reacting
00:44:45to a room full of uranium ore samples.
00:44:47This door's locked.
00:45:02Dr. Stern has the key.
00:45:04Oh, yes.
00:45:04None of the others were locked.
00:45:05What's in here?
00:45:06The greenhouse.
00:45:07The Eskimos are the weakness
00:45:08for our strawberries.
00:45:10Strawberries in the North Pole.
00:45:12Excuse me.
00:45:12Mac, Bob.
00:45:19Look under these tables.
00:45:29Bob, check that outside door.
00:45:36Door's locked, sir.
00:45:37Up and up here, Pat.
00:45:38All right, we're still battling at zero.
00:45:42Well, Doctor?
00:45:43Captain, I have...
00:45:44I'll hang up that other quarter, Pat.
00:45:46Any suggestions, Doctor?
00:45:47It's obviously not inside.
00:45:49Start looking outside to send us this.
00:45:50Close the door, please.
00:45:51Never mind, Doctor.
00:45:52We're going.
00:45:52Captain, half an hour outside now
00:45:54is about all we can stand.
00:45:56We'd better do it in relay.
00:45:57You're right, Doctor Chapman.
00:45:59We'll have to work out.
00:45:59Would you close the door, please?
00:46:02That reminds me
00:46:03we're going to have to tell
00:46:03General Fogarty what happened.
00:46:04We're liable to become famous.
00:46:06So few people can boast
00:46:08that they've lost a flying saucer
00:46:09and a man from Mars
00:46:10all on the same day.
00:46:12I wonder what they'd have done
00:46:13to Columbus
00:46:14if they'd discovered America
00:46:15if they'd mislead it.
00:46:17Bunch of butterfingers.
00:46:19Gentlemen,
00:46:19I just happened to notice...
00:46:22Look at these moles.
00:46:29Hmm.
00:46:29Why, they're wilted.
00:46:31The only thing...
00:46:32A blast of icy air
00:46:33if that rear door was opened.
00:46:35Have another look at that lock,
00:46:36will you, Professor?
00:46:37Yes, Doctor.
00:46:37Ten or fifteen seconds
00:46:38of such exposure would do it.
00:46:40Exactly.
00:46:42What would that lead you to?
00:46:45That it may have been...
00:46:47in here.
00:46:49Without a doubt.
00:46:52Doctor Carrington,
00:46:53you were right.
00:46:53The lock's been forced
00:46:54and bent back into position again.
00:46:55The key's gone.
00:46:56Someone has entered and gone
00:46:57and locked the door from...
00:46:59from the outside.
00:47:01Look.
00:47:02See how it glistens in the light?
00:47:04It's a smear of...
00:47:05bloodsap.
00:47:08From the wounded arm?
00:47:10You don't suppose?
00:47:11Open it, please.
00:47:11Open it, please.
00:47:11What are the slut dogs?
00:47:24Not even cold here,
00:47:25ain't it?
00:47:26It doesn't seem kind of shrunken.
00:47:31Is there any blood in there?
00:47:33No.
00:47:34No blood.
00:47:35No blood.
00:47:36It's blood has been drained.
00:47:38Everything falls right into line.
00:47:40What could be more natural
00:47:41for a being of its kind
00:47:43than seeking out
00:47:43the only open earth
00:47:44within miles?
00:47:45It came here for refuge.
00:47:47Heard us.
00:47:49And ran.
00:47:50It's been here.
00:47:52It'll come back again.
00:47:53We'd better tell Captain...
00:47:54I don't agree with you, Doctor.
00:47:55I think it's far better
00:47:56if science rather than...
00:47:58Doctor, you're sure this is the best thing.
00:47:59I'm sure we can communicate with it.
00:48:01We must.
00:48:02It's wiser than we are.
00:48:04It's our only chance to talk to it,
00:48:06to learn so many things.
00:48:07Doctor Carrington,
00:48:08you can understand that, Stern.
00:48:10will you stand guard here
00:48:12with me tonight, Maurice?
00:48:13And you, Lawrence?
00:48:14Very clearly, Doctor.
00:48:15Good.
00:48:16Stern, tell Doctor Auerbach
00:48:17and Doctor Olsen
00:48:18what we've found.
00:48:19Ask them to come back
00:48:20and relieve us in the morning.
00:48:23And tell them, please,
00:48:24to confide in Noah.
00:48:40Hey, look, Captain.
00:48:43Oh, Lee.
00:48:44Lee, you better get
00:48:45some more hot coffee ready.
00:48:46Find anything, Captain?
00:48:47Not the same.
00:48:48We've poked in
00:48:48every snowbank within mine.
00:48:50Well, I'd slice the polar bear.
00:48:51Sure did.
00:48:52Scare you?
00:48:53Not after I saw
00:48:54it was only a bear.
00:48:55You called out there for that.
00:48:57Didn't find anything, did you?
00:48:58I didn't think you would.
00:49:00When we lose them,
00:49:00they stay lost.
00:49:01Not that it makes much difference.
00:49:03There's nothing going on
00:49:04on the radio.
00:49:04Nothing coming in.
00:49:06Hey, Tex,
00:49:06don't tell me you got something.
00:49:07Well, Captain,
00:49:08your general phobody's
00:49:09are on the temperature.
00:49:10This came in clear
00:49:10about ten minutes ago
00:49:11and then it got fouled up again.
00:49:13Fogarty to Hendry,
00:49:14take all precautions
00:49:15to preserve aircraft
00:49:16carefully until my arrival.
00:49:18Same to same.
00:49:19Use same precautions
00:49:20with corpses of any occupants.
00:49:22Same to same.
00:49:23Forward detailed description
00:49:24of aircraft.
00:49:25Oh, measurements,
00:49:27approximate weight
00:49:27and so forth.
00:49:28Important.
00:49:29Fogarty to Hendry,
00:49:30why haven't you answered?
00:49:31Well, immediate answer.
00:49:33Same to same.
00:49:34Radio silence unnecessary.
00:49:35Reference message
00:49:36Fogarty to Hendry.
00:49:38Acknowledge immediately.
00:49:39Fogarty to Hendry.
00:49:40Waiting report.
00:49:41Silence confusing.
00:49:42Same to same.
00:49:43Acknowledge.
00:49:44Same to same.
00:49:45Acknowledge at once.
00:49:46I gather he wants
00:49:46to hear from you.
00:49:47You mean there's nothing
00:49:47for me?
00:49:48You got it all.
00:49:49Oh, for Pete's sake,
00:49:50I don't believe it.
00:49:50How can a man
00:49:51get to be a general
00:49:52without even knowing?
00:49:53In the green house.
00:50:00Fogarty, get out there
00:50:01and watch that corner.
00:50:02Somebody bring the
00:50:03first aid kit, please.
00:50:04Captain, this is my job.
00:50:05Bobby, you better start
00:50:06warning everybody else
00:50:07in the camp.
00:50:08Does that speaker system
00:50:09work from here?
00:50:09Yes, a switch on the lab
00:50:10goes all over a little.
00:50:12Attention, everybody in camp.
00:50:14Stay where you are
00:50:15and bolt your doors.
00:50:15Our visitor has returned
00:50:16and is dangerous.
00:50:18Stay where you are
00:50:18until notified
00:50:19and bolt your doors.
00:50:20Stay where you are.
00:50:20easy, doctor.
00:50:29Easy, it'll be all right.
00:50:30What happened, doctor?
00:50:31In the green house
00:50:32I was working,
00:50:33I couldn't see.
00:50:34Yeah.
00:50:34Then a blast of cold air
00:50:36and I heard Olsen scream.
00:50:38When I turned,
00:50:39the thing struck at me.
00:50:40Go on.
00:50:41I don't remember my head
00:50:43and I must have fallen.
00:50:46When I came to,
00:50:47I saw Olsen and Auerbach.
00:50:48They were...
00:50:49Give me some more of that.
00:50:50Get those axes.
00:50:51Go ahead, doctor.
00:50:54They were both hanging
00:50:55from the beams upside down.
00:50:57They were dead.
00:50:57Their throats were cut.
00:50:59I crawled out from under...
00:51:00Was it still there
00:51:00when you left?
00:51:01I couldn't see.
00:51:03Hey, Olsen.
00:51:04Wait for me, Pat.
00:51:05I want to get a picture.
00:51:06Pat, I don't want a picture.
00:51:19You get back with a rest.
00:51:20Don't be silly.
00:51:21It'll cost you drinks, Guy.
00:51:23I'll buy him a beer.
00:51:25Ready about it?
00:51:26No, but go ahead and open it.
00:51:28Go ahead and open it.
00:51:29Go ahead.
00:51:30Go ahead.
00:51:31Go ahead.
00:51:32Go ahead.
00:51:33I don't want a picture.
00:51:34You get back with a rest.
00:51:35Don't be silly.
00:51:36It'll cost you drinks, Guy.
00:51:37I'll buy him a beer.
00:51:38I'll buy him a beer.
00:51:43Ready about it?
00:51:44No, but go ahead and open it.
00:51:45Go ahead and open it.
00:52:00Get talking about this door.
00:52:01Quick!
00:52:02There's something short enough
00:52:03to get under this boat.
00:52:06Did you picture, Scotty?
00:52:07No, you were in the way.
00:52:08And the door wasn't built long enough.
00:52:10Do you want me to open it again?
00:52:11No.
00:52:12Bring a hammer and some spikes.
00:52:13Put that in, wait, Captain.
00:52:14There.
00:52:19That ought to do it.
00:52:20Dr. Chapman.
00:52:21You sure there's no other way out?
00:52:22No windows, skylights, or vents of any kind?
00:52:24Only the front and back door.
00:52:25These walls solid.
00:52:26Corrugated iron.
00:52:28You don't think that...
00:52:33Dr. Carrington,
00:52:34we just learned you found a dog in there
00:52:35bled white by a visitor.
00:52:36He didn't report it.
00:52:37Why?
00:52:38I didn't consider it necessary.
00:52:39But it was necessary to let two of your friends
00:52:40in there to be killed.
00:52:41I posted them as a guard.
00:52:42I was in there myself.
00:52:43Dr. Stern was right.
00:52:44I looked through that door.
00:52:45They're hanging in there upside down
00:52:46like in a slaughterhouse.
00:52:47I wish you'd seen it.
00:52:48Isn't there something we can do about it?
00:52:49They're dead.
00:52:50And our job is to see nobody else join them.
00:52:51As for you, Doctor,
00:52:52you're limited to your room, laboratory,
00:52:53and the mess hall until this thing's finished.
00:52:54Captain, you have no authority of any kind to issue such an order.
00:52:56Doctor.
00:52:57No right to assume...
00:52:58You'd better move along.
00:52:59We've got the rear door blocked.
00:53:00If he gets out,
00:53:01he'll have to dig his way through 20 or 30 oil drums
00:53:02and a couple of tons of snow and ice.
00:53:03Good.
00:53:04And, Bob, next time you use that cannon,
00:53:05raise the sights a little.
00:53:06I'm sorry, sir.
00:53:07I was too busy to think about that.
00:53:08It's okay.
00:53:09Gentlemen, we're gonna have to set up a guard here
00:53:10at the junction in the corridor.
00:53:11Two hours shifts.
00:53:12We'll need volunteers.
00:53:13I'll be glad to be, Captain.
00:53:14Coming in, Captain.
00:53:15You sent for a start.
00:53:17You said you had news for the night.
00:53:18I'm sorry.
00:53:19I'm sorry, sir.
00:53:20I was too busy to think about that.
00:53:21Gentlemen, we're gonna have to set up a guard here
00:53:22at the junction in the corridor.
00:53:23Two hours shifts.
00:53:24We'll need volunteers.
00:53:25I'll be glad to be, Captain.
00:53:26Coming in, Captain.
00:53:35You sent for a start.
00:53:38You said you had news for us, Doctor.
00:53:42Sorry, I'm very tired.
00:53:44I haven't slept.
00:53:45It's difficult.
00:53:47Difficult to talk.
00:53:50Read my notes, Miss Nicholson.
00:53:53Doctor, you need some rest.
00:53:55Yes, I know, but...
00:53:57Please read my notes.
00:54:00At 9 p.m. I placed the seeds
00:54:03taken from the severed hand of X
00:54:05in four inches of earth.
00:54:07I saturated the earth...
00:54:11I saturated the earth with two units of plasma
00:54:14taken from our blood bank.
00:54:15The condition of the dog found in the greenhouse
00:54:18indicated that blood was a primal factor
00:54:20in the cultivation of the seeds.
00:54:22At 2 a.m.
00:54:25At 2 a.m.
00:54:27the first sprouts appeared through the soil.
00:54:29Five hours.
00:54:30Yes.
00:54:31I used another two units of plasma.
00:54:34At 4 a.m. the sprouts began to take on definite form.
00:54:39I came to the...
00:54:41I see by your faces you don't believe me.
00:54:47Well, you are so angry that you may judge for yourselves.
00:54:52Well, now it is impossible.
00:54:59It reproduces itself at amazing speed.
00:55:02This wood barrel had Captain Henry's impression.
00:55:04When he saw the creature in the door of the greenhouse,
00:55:05it seemed to have grown a new arm.
00:55:06This pulsating, Doctor.
00:55:07And though they were breathing.
00:55:08Yes.
00:55:09Human plants.
00:55:10Superhuman.
00:55:11All of this because of the blood plasma, Doctor?
00:55:12That's correct.
00:55:13Notice these closer to the source of the plasma.
00:55:14Are these farther away?
00:55:15How many units have we?
00:55:16Enough, I hope.
00:55:17Do you care to listen to them, Professor Wilson?
00:55:21the door of the greenhouse it seemed to have grown a new arm this pulsating doctor and though
00:55:26they were breathing yes human plants superhuman all of this because of the blood plasma doctor
00:55:34that's correct notice these closer to the source of the plasma are these farther away
00:55:40how many units have we enough i hope do you care to listen to them professor wilson yes thank you i
00:55:48should
00:56:08well almost like the wheel of a newborn child that's hungry that's the way i would have described it
00:56:17doctor yes miss nicholas do you mind very much if i will you will you be needing me anymore no just
00:56:24finish typing my notes turn them to me let no one see them doctor i think you should get some sleep
00:56:33there's too much to do professor wilson your mind can't work if you're exhausted my mind's still
00:56:37perfectly clear no it isn't doctor you aren't thinking what's happening there in the greenhouse
00:56:42he's bringing those seeds in there using blood just as you are you've seen what one creature like
00:56:48that can do just imagine a thousand i have imagined it arthur what if that aircraft came here not just to
00:56:56visit the earth but to conquer it to start growing some kind of horrible army turn the human race into
00:57:04food for it and many things threatening our world new stars comet shooting through space those are
00:57:10theories this is an enemy right there are no enemies in science professor only phenomena to study
00:57:17we are studying one
00:57:22come in
00:57:37hello pat hi nicky i want to ask you something has anybody up here been hurt lately anybody shot or
00:57:44stabbed or operated on no that what is it in the greenhouse has been our first diversion i brought up 35
00:57:50units of blood plasma two months ago let's become a bit why do you want to know i wondered why they're
00:57:56not giving it to dr stern they're giving them blood transfusions instead of plasma two live donors
00:58:02what's carrington doing with 35 units of blood plasma nicky i guess guess you better take a swing at
00:58:08my chin and have a look at those notes should be trying to stop you
00:58:20so that's what he's been doing thanks thanks for not stopping
00:58:28pat would you remember something
00:58:32he's tired he hasn't slept since you found that thing
00:58:35he's not thinking right i know him and he doesn't think the way we do anyway but he's found something
00:58:41that no one can understand and until he can solve it he'll
00:58:43he'll you know like a kid with a new toy he'll just this toy level to bite him thanks again
00:58:59where's dr carrington sorry captain i have no uh
00:59:02authorization to give you any i'm very busy i know you're busy doctor i understand you've been doing a
00:59:07bit of gardening where are they why the nursery pat i don't tolerate intrusions into my laboratory
00:59:16please don't touch me this is what your late colleagues are doing in the greenhouse doctor
00:59:20except this is a distinct improvement what happened in the greenhouse was not my fault we've read your
00:59:24notes arthur yeah i think you should have consulted the rest of us i have all the help i need your
00:59:28opinion has not been asked it has by captain henry and i've given it to him i'll repeat it for you
00:59:34we're facing something unpredictably dangerous the creature in the greenhouse is obviously
00:59:39multiplying itself in this identical fashion we have no way of finding out how much you can
00:59:42multiply it'll need more blood and it'll make every effort to obtain what it needs it's been
00:59:46imprisoned and is therefore harmless how can you be sure of our safety or more important the safety
00:59:51of the world think of a thousand of such creatures ten thousand yes it must be destroyed
00:59:55with progeny along with it no we can burn these what about that thing in the greenhouse you're
01:00:00talking like frightened school you're right doctor i am frightened any destruction would
01:00:04be an outrage a betrayal of science be a betrayal of science doctor but it'll make me and some of
01:00:08the other sleep a lot better if we get rid of the no captain but i finally got a message through
01:00:12and here's the answer go ahead oh goody to henry carrington informs me martian alive you are directed to
01:00:17make effort to keep it alive and protect it against injury under no circumstances take action
01:00:22against it until my arrival when weather permits you have your orders captain henry i consider them
01:00:26insane and intelligent but tax what about me that means got it what do we do pat get on that radio
01:00:34and try changing the army's mind
01:00:40what are you doing here we can't take it out there anymore we'll have to drop the idea
01:00:59garden green eyes from you it's blowing so hard you can't see your head in front of your face besides
01:01:03you can go through any wall as easy as the door how could it get through corrugated iron wall
01:01:07use a can opener tell the others we're dropping the outside guard put that hand of yours in some
01:01:11ice water and rub it who's out on the course stone and wilson sir barnes yes sir tell them they're the
01:01:17only ones on guard now yes tell them to watch it text here i am you won't be there long we're dropping the
01:01:28outside guards you better come up here and join the rest of them in the mess hall i'll be all right i got
01:01:33the door brace good and there's no outside windows all right if you want to be brave
01:01:40well what are we going to anybody around here want some coffee no but you can come in
01:01:49it's the only reason i brought it i was hoping you might ask me
01:01:54who wants that i could use a half
01:01:55what were you saying scotty i was just wondering if that's enough thanks what happens if our
01:02:02boyfriend gets lonely and starts strolling around ends up in here what do we do i've been trying to
01:02:07figure that too nothing seems to hurt a 64 dollar question what do you do with a vegetable boil it
01:02:12what'd you say boil it do it bake it fry it hey that makes sense cold doesn't bother it maybe dr
01:02:21carrington will ask it to crawl into a double boiler or maybe you could borrow a flamethrower from
01:02:25somebody i've got a crazy idea we've got lots of kerosene and we could
01:02:36point three point four before we start cooking on five point six watch it everybody that things out of
01:02:45the greenhouse be sure and stay together point nine captain what about throwing kerosene i'm setting
01:02:50it on fire we can try get that there's a ball can i'll take it we'll need something to put it in
01:02:57one point two we need one more hey pat this ought to work all right good watch that cigarette lieutenant
01:03:02no one point two how we got to set it on fire grab two sticks together there's a very pistol in my
01:03:07bag i'll get it if it comes in you wet it down and you matt touch it off and don't miss you two be
01:03:12ready in case it needs more i think you're right get oh sure one point three now you know how to shoot
01:03:17that thing don't you i saw gary cooper and sergeant york one point four come here get in the corner
01:03:24now hold this in front of you stay by the light switch one point five one point six seven
01:03:31what was that sounds like a window one point eight couple spikes one point nine the needles hit the top
01:03:50so
01:03:56Oh!
01:03:57Oh!
01:03:58Oh!
01:03:59Oh!
01:04:00Oh!
01:04:01Oh!
01:04:02Oh!
01:04:10Get the wire!
01:04:11Fire!
01:04:12Watch it, Captain!
01:04:15You've got a second door like this!
01:04:19Lock that window!
01:04:20Hey, Scott!
01:04:21I'm going to unlock that door.
01:04:26Here you are, sir. This will make your hand feel better.
01:04:39Thank you, Bob.
01:04:43This ought to be enough kerosene, Pat.
01:04:45We'll get it ready.
01:04:46How's it coming, Barnes?
01:04:47It'll be okay.
01:04:48What makes me mad is that he didn't do it.
01:04:50I busted it falling over the bunk.
01:04:52Now, listen, everybody.
01:04:53I want you all to say here.
01:04:54We found a way to fight this thing off, but we burned out a room doing it.
01:04:57I don't think it was hurt much, judging from the way it took off.
01:04:59About as much effect as a good hot foot.
01:05:01It's sure to come back here again.
01:05:03We don't want to burn up the whole place, so as soon as we're organized, we're going after it.
01:05:06We probably went back to the greenhouse, so we'll start there.
01:05:09In the meantime, stay here.
01:05:11Watch the door into the hallway.
01:05:13And keep your eye on the Geiger counter.
01:05:15Here are the fire extinguishers.
01:05:16Who's your electrical expert here?
01:05:18I can help you, Captain. That's my line.
01:05:19I can help you, Captain. That's my line.
01:05:20Can you hook into the intercom system from the corridor?
01:05:22Oh, easily. We can take one from any of the other rooms.
01:05:24I can help you on that, too.
01:05:25Mack, we'll be in the radio room. Let us know when you're ready.
01:05:28You all right?
01:05:29Yeah, but I'd like to take along with you.
01:05:31Haven't you had enough?
01:05:32Well, if I start burning up again, who's going to put out the fire?
01:05:34Sure.
01:05:35We're very proud of our captain.
01:05:37Now, look.
01:05:40Put one of the intercoms here.
01:05:43That'll take care of this end.
01:05:44We'll put another down here at the junction in the corridor.
01:05:47Check them to see if they work through the mess hall.
01:05:48Right.
01:05:49Captain, I just thought of something.
01:05:50You said you were going to use kerosene again.
01:05:51You know anything better?
01:05:52Something hotter.
01:05:53We have enough cable to stretch to the greenhouse.
01:05:55Why not use electricity?
01:05:56You mean your lighting system?
01:05:57No, no.
01:05:58We can hook in a new transformer Dr. Chapman's been using.
01:06:00It's a high-voltage outfit and will give us plenty of amps.
01:06:02Enough to burn them?
01:06:03More than enough.
01:06:04Well, could you use leads to two poles and catch them between them?
01:06:06If you insulate the poles.
01:06:07Sounds good.
01:06:08Bob, give him a hand.
01:06:10Come on, Tex.
01:06:11You go to work.
01:06:12Get anchorage if you can.
01:06:14Tell them the whole story.
01:06:15Tell them we're in bad shape.
01:06:17The sooner they get here, the better.
01:06:18Tell them to bring hand grenades, mortars, flamethrowers, anything they can think of.
01:06:21Tell them if I don't get permission to send a story out, I'm going to shoot myself.
01:06:24Better comb your hair first.
01:06:26What hair?
01:06:27Hey, say that again.
01:06:29Oh, Nicky, not you too.
01:06:30He's sensitive about his hair.
01:06:31You too.
01:06:32I got hair.
01:06:33It doesn't make you any prettier.
01:06:34No, no, your breath.
01:06:35I'm sorry.
01:06:36He says something about that, too.
01:06:37I've been very upset lately, my...
01:06:39Oh, you ninny.
01:06:40Look.
01:06:41That's what I mean.
01:06:42You too.
01:06:43It's getting cold in here.
01:06:44The heat must be off.
01:06:45It is off.
01:06:46It's not getting any oil.
01:06:47See if it's the same way in the room across the hall of Tex.
01:06:48Where do these heaters get their oil from?
01:06:49Around behind, outside.
01:06:50Hey, Pat.
01:06:51Heat's off in the mess hall.
01:06:52No.
01:06:53No more oil coming in.
01:06:54Pat, it's off in there, too.
01:06:55Did the tank be empty?
01:06:56Phil, the day before yesterday.
01:06:57The main line could be plugged.
01:06:58You better go outside and fix it.
01:06:59Probably run smack into our visitor.
01:07:00We'd be waiting for you to do just that.
01:07:01We underestimate this guy.
01:07:02It's a little bit turned off.
01:07:03Trying to freeze us out, huh?
01:07:04That isn't going to be hard.
01:07:05Down to 40 degrees now.
01:07:06It's 60 below outside.
01:07:07How long do these rooms hold any heat?
01:07:08Half an hour at the most.
01:07:09By then, we'll all be stiff as a...
01:07:10Well, look.
01:07:11If no one goes out to fix that oil line,
01:07:12won't it think of something else?
01:07:13You'll think the same thing I am.
01:07:14That our only chance to keep warm would be electricity.
01:07:15No.
01:07:16No.
01:07:17No.
01:07:18No.
01:07:19No.
01:07:20No.
01:07:21No.
01:07:22No.
01:07:23No.
01:07:24No.
01:07:25No.
01:07:26No.
01:07:27No.
01:07:28No.
01:07:29I think the only chance to keep warm would be electricity.
01:07:31Heaters, blankets, anything like that.
01:07:32Yes.
01:07:33It could break the circuit.
01:07:34Cut a line anywhere, except at the source.
01:07:36Sure.
01:07:37The generator room.
01:07:38Get them all in there.
01:07:39I'll tell Ted.
01:07:40Bring any electrical stuff, food, medicine, blankets, warm clothes, anything you can find.
01:07:42And Mac, bring our flying clothes.
01:07:43Pat, most of them got burned, but I'll see what I can salvage.
01:07:47I've got the transformer on that back.
01:07:48There's an awful coal in here.
01:07:49I know, the thing's turned the heat off.
01:07:50What?
01:07:51That'll change things.
01:07:52What are we going to do about it?
01:07:53I don't know.
01:07:54Next thing it'll think of is the electricity, so we're putting everybody in the generator room and trying
01:07:56to fight her from there.
01:07:57Lieutenant, did you do a good job on the outside door of the generator room?
01:08:00Houdini'd find it tough getting in.
01:08:01It's better than even money. He'll come through this corridor.
01:08:03Yeah, it's the only way less.
01:08:04You got any fence wire strong enough to take your voltage?
01:08:06Oh, rolls over here.
01:08:07That'll work, Lieutenant.
01:08:08Sure.
01:08:09What'll work?
01:08:09Lay it on the ground. Here.
01:08:10Lead overhead and one on each side.
01:08:12When that thing gets to the right spot, juicy.
01:08:14I don't get you.
01:08:15Where's the fence wire?
01:08:15Right down here.
01:08:16Hey, give me those cutters.
01:08:17What are you talking about?
01:08:17I'm talking about an electric fly trap right here for him to walk into.
01:08:20What do you mean, fly trap?
01:08:21Hey, Scott, get me a hammer and some nails out of the generator.
01:08:23Sure, sure.
01:08:24I'd better get out of the way.
01:08:25Well, it looks like they have the situation well in hand.
01:08:28It's all right with me.
01:08:29I've given all the orders I want to give for the rest of my life.
01:08:31If I thought that were true, I'd ask you to marry him.
01:08:34Here's your coat.
01:08:34Shut up. I want to keep my mind.
01:08:36Hey, our hammer and nail.
01:08:38Why do you want us, Captain?
01:08:39In the generator room, Doctor.
01:08:40All right, move along, please.
01:08:41Everybody, keep moving.
01:08:42Please, keep moving.
01:08:42Sorry, General.
01:08:43Change my mind. It's all off.
01:08:45Keep moving, everybody.
01:08:46Captain, I want another wood.
01:08:47No trying not, Doctor. Move along.
01:08:48Yes, please.
01:08:49Make way here. Clear this out.
01:08:51Clear this place.
01:08:52Thanks.
01:08:53Where are those cutters?
01:08:53In there, huh?
01:08:54Where's your cargo cargo, Bob?
01:08:55Back there, that barrel.
01:08:56I got one, too, Captain.
01:08:57Go down to the assembly room.
01:08:58If you get anything, cover running.
01:08:59Right.
01:08:59If somebody get me a pair of gloves.
01:09:00They'll use my name.
01:09:19Leave enough to hook to the overhead wire.
01:09:21No, I'm in plenty.
01:09:23Here we are, Lieutenant.
01:09:27Here we are, Lieutenant.
01:09:28Here's that.
01:09:29Let me give us a ground.
01:09:30Put down.
01:09:31There she is, Captain.
01:09:32Down to five degrees now.
01:09:34Perfect for skis.
01:09:35We've got a pair of rubber boots, Scotty.
01:09:37Why?
01:09:38Insulation.
01:09:38They turn the juice off.
01:09:39Oh, yeah.
01:09:41We're back here, Scott.
01:09:42Where?
01:09:43Wait a minute, Scotty.
01:09:44You won't need any boots.
01:09:45When it comes, you go back with the others.
01:09:46You don't belong out here.
01:09:47I didn't belong at Alamein or Bougainville or Okinawa.
01:09:50I was just kibitzing.
01:09:51And I'll also write a very good obit, obituary to you.
01:09:54Just ignore me, please.
01:09:55Captain Henry.
01:09:56Captain Henry.
01:09:57Go ahead.
01:09:58Just hook this thing up.
01:09:59Checking to see if it works.
01:10:00That's fine.
01:10:01Watch your Geiger counter.
01:10:02Yes, sir.
01:10:02Mac, did you hear that?
01:10:03Every word.
01:10:04I hope that's all I hear.
01:10:05So do I.
01:10:06Oh, Captain, here's another message.
01:10:07This one relayed from Washington.
01:10:09Oh, goody to Henry.
01:10:10Use every means to protect lives of entire party,
01:10:13but take no steps against your prisoner.
01:10:15Our prisoner.
01:10:16There you are again.
01:10:17You can't ignore orders from your commanding officer.
01:10:19I can testify to that effect in my court, Marshal.
01:10:20You're doing more than breaking army orders.
01:10:22You're robbing science of the greatest secret that's ever come to it.
01:10:24Better go back, Doctor.
01:10:25Knowledge is more important than life, Captain.
01:10:27We've only one excuse for existing.
01:10:29To think, to find out, to learn.
01:10:31What can we learn from that thing?
01:10:33Except a quicker way to die.
01:10:34Doesn't matter what happens to us.
01:10:36Nothing counts except our thinking.
01:10:38We've fought our way into nature.
01:10:39We've split the atom.
01:10:40Yes, and that sure made the world happy, didn't it?
01:10:43We owe it to the brain of our species to stand here and die
01:10:46without destroying a source of wisdom.
01:10:48Captain Henry.
01:10:50Civilization has given us orders.
01:10:51Get here, Marty.
01:10:52Come on, Doctor.
01:10:52Oh, you fools.
01:10:53You've never heard it.
01:10:54Wise us.
01:10:55Go ahead.
01:10:56Captain, I'm getting a reaction from the Geiger counter.
01:10:58What's your reading?
01:11:00Only point two, but steady.
01:11:01Watch it.
01:11:02Tell us any change.
01:11:03Mac, anything your way?
01:11:04Not a glimmer, Pat.
01:11:05Watch it.
01:11:06Here's the operating switch right here.
01:11:08How can it get cold so quick?
01:11:09Keep moving around.
01:11:10You're no good if you're too cold.
01:11:12Must be zero.
01:11:13Was next stop far below.
01:11:16Come on, Mr. Martian, and get some nice scotch blood.
01:11:19100 proof.
01:11:20Nothing like it for babies.
01:11:22Tell him to cut it out.
01:11:24No, no.
01:11:24Let him go on.
01:11:25I like those pimples.
01:11:26Keep me warm.
01:11:27Hey, Scotty, did you get a picture of that thing when it was on fire?
01:11:32No.
01:11:32I shot one while I was falling backward over the bed.
01:11:35Probably got the ceiling in my own big seat.
01:11:38Captain Henry, Captain Henry.
01:11:39Going up a little.
01:11:40Point four now.
01:11:41Hang on.
01:11:42Mac, any change?
01:11:42Just the same.
01:11:44Only colder.
01:11:45Probably means he's coming by the mess hall.
01:11:47Excuse me, sir.
01:11:48I got an idea.
01:11:49What?
01:11:49There he go again.
01:11:50I knew a boy's pretty smart.
01:11:52He might see these wires we got rigged here and sit down and think it over.
01:11:55Yeah.
01:11:55If he thinks too long, we're cold meat.
01:11:58What if we met him over there by the junction?
01:12:00Let him see us there and chase us back here?
01:12:02Yes, sir.
01:12:02And the less light, the better.
01:12:04Turn off this light and this one down here.
01:12:06Don't turn it up right.
01:12:07Yes.
01:12:08Captain Henry.
01:12:09Going up.
01:12:10Point eight now.
01:12:11I'm getting some new plans.
01:12:12Showing here now.
01:12:13All right, you fellas.
01:12:14Both of you.
01:12:14Back here and come around it.
01:12:15Halfway there.
01:12:17Redding, if you speed up that generator,
01:12:18can you get any more out of it?
01:12:20Certainly do no harm to try.
01:12:21Bill, you and Dick's go with him.
01:12:22Nicky, you too.
01:12:23Pat, good luck to you.
01:12:27What's the matter?
01:12:28I was just wishing we'd had a chance to test this thing to see if it would work.
01:12:31What if we haven't enough foliage?
01:12:32Let's keep swinging in its arms.
01:12:34One point two.
01:12:35He's on its way.
01:12:35You know, I got to worry.
01:12:36Report from the front, Captain.
01:12:38Lieutenant McPherson had to worry.
01:12:39This is no joke.
01:12:40What?
01:12:41What if he can read our minds?
01:12:42He's going to be real mad when he gets to me.
01:12:45One point four.
01:12:46Keep moving around, you guys.
01:12:47Keep it quiet.
01:12:49I remember the first execution I ever covered.
01:12:52Bruce Snyder and Judd Gray.
01:12:55Did you get a picture of that, Scotty?
01:12:56No, they didn't allow cameras, but one guy...
01:12:58One point six.
01:12:59Going up fast.
01:13:00The booth thankfully ceases.
01:13:01Give him a chance to get a look.
01:13:02Leave him in to reach that switch.
01:13:04Stay away from the walls when he hits the juice.
01:13:07Everybody got rubber boots on?
01:13:09Yes, sir.
01:13:10One point eight.
01:13:10I thought I heard something.
01:13:21It's getting near the top.
01:13:22That's both Wei.
01:13:23And now it's getting near the top.
01:13:35Then it's our little.
01:13:37It's got an object of it.
01:13:39That's all you can Google.
01:13:40Is that all you decide when they sell out?
01:13:41It must be like those neighbors.
01:13:42We must be going no way.
01:13:43Then we roll out the floor.
01:13:44What the juice is off?
01:13:53Pat, Pat, Carrington turned off the generator.
01:13:55Bring the flashlight.
01:13:56Eddie, hold it.
01:13:56Watch out, he's got a gun.
01:14:01Keep away.
01:14:02Keep away.
01:14:03Keep away.
01:14:04I won't allow you to destroy.
01:14:06Turn on that generator.
01:14:07Get back here, Eddie.
01:14:14Eddie, get back here.
01:14:24Stay away from that water.
01:14:25Listen, I'm your friend.
01:14:27Look, I have no weapons.
01:14:28I'm your friend.
01:14:29You're wiser than I.
01:14:30You must understand what I'm trying to tell you.
01:14:33Don't go any farther.
01:14:34They'll kill you.
01:14:34They think you mean to harm us all.
01:14:36But I want to know you, to help you.
01:14:38Believe that.
01:14:39You're wiser than anything on Earth.
01:14:41Use that intelligence.
01:14:42Look at me and know what I'm trying to tell you.
01:14:44I'm not your enemy.
01:14:45I'm a scientist.
01:14:46I'm a scientist who's trying to...
01:14:49Wait till he gets right in the middle of it, sir.
01:14:59He's got to be on that walk, Captain.
01:15:10Wait till he gets right in the middle, sir.
01:15:12He's got to be on that walk.
01:15:40He's got to be on thatlamour.
01:15:41Oh, that's enough. Turn it off. Let it go. We don't want any part of it left.
01:16:11How do you get a picture of us, Connie?
01:16:41Listen, take a minute to warm up.
01:16:47We can get through. Is there any reason now why I can't send out my story?
01:16:52Only take five minutes. I guess it's okay. Go ahead, Scotty.
01:16:55You're going to look a lot better to me than you used to.
01:16:57Hold on, Pat.
01:16:58Get everything?
01:16:59Yeah, we burned everything in Carrington's lab and in the greenhouse.
01:17:02Burnt the arm, too. Nothing left but ashes.
01:17:04How is Dr. Carrington? He's got a broken car bone and a bad headache.
01:17:07You're not getting enough voltage.
01:17:09I'll check the generator for you.
01:17:11Good.
01:17:12Anybody want some coffee?
01:17:13No, but you can come in.
01:17:15You better have some. You look awfully tired.
01:17:17He should look tired. He's had two things on his mind. We've only had one.
01:17:21Now, our worries are over what our captain is.
01:17:24Shut up.
01:17:25Isn't there something you can do about it, Nicky?
01:17:27I don't know. You know, I'm getting pretty fed up with the North Pole.
01:17:31How much does the captain make a month?
01:17:33Not very much.
01:17:34That's a good start. Go ahead.
01:17:35Enough to support two people?
01:17:37Nearly enough.
01:17:38Oh, captain, you get flight pay and some for each dependent.
01:17:40What's that?
01:17:41Oh, we can hear that.
01:17:42Now, look, I'm not going to be real rude at anything.
01:17:43Captain, I've got an idea if you'll pardon me, sir.
01:17:45This is going to work.
01:17:46You ought to settle down, sir.
01:17:48There you are, see?
01:17:49It'd be so much better for us.
01:17:50Sure, our captain always flitting around and getting into trouble.
01:17:54You remember that night in Honolulu?
01:17:55Oh, that was pretty bad.
01:17:57I don't know what they're talking about.
01:17:58He ought to light somewhere.
01:17:59See, they know what's best for you.
01:18:01Mm-hmm.
01:18:02Here we are.
01:18:03Only voltage now.
01:18:06Anchorage from Polar Expedition 6.
01:18:08Anchorage from Polar Expedition 6.
01:18:10Can you hear me?
01:18:11Over.
01:18:12Anchorage, reception clear.
01:18:13Stand by.
01:18:14General Fogarty for Captain Hendry.
01:18:15Over.
01:18:16Tell General Fogarty we've sent for Captain Hendry.
01:18:19He'll be here in a few minutes.
01:18:20Over.
01:18:21Roger.
01:18:22Over.
01:18:23Are there any newsmen there who can hear me?
01:18:24Over.
01:18:25Places pull up.
01:18:26Over.
01:18:27All right, fellas.
01:18:28Here's your story.
01:18:29North Pole, November 3rd.
01:18:30Ned Scott reporting.
01:18:31One of the world's greatest battles was fought in one today by the human race.
01:18:35Here at the top of the world, a handful of American soldiers and civilians met the first invasion from another planet.
01:18:41A man by the name of Noah once saved our world with an arc of wood.
01:18:45Here at the North Pole, a few men performed a similar service with an arc of electricity.
01:18:49The flying saucer which landed here and its pilot have been destroyed, but not without casualties among our own meager forces.
01:18:56I would like to bring to the microphone some of the men responsible for our success.
01:19:00But a senior air force officer, Captain Hendry, is attending to demands over and above the call of duty.
01:19:06Dr. Carrington, the leader of the scientific expedition, is recovering from wounds received in the battle.
01:19:12Good for you, Scotty.
01:19:13And now, before giving you the details of the battle, I bring you a warning.
01:19:17Every one of you listening to my voice.
01:19:20Tell the world.
01:19:21Tell this to everybody wherever they are.
01:19:24Watch the skies.
01:19:26Everywhere.
01:19:27Keep looking.
01:19:28Keep watching the skies.
01:19:30Key.
01:19:31.
01:19:403
01:19:46.
01:19:57You
