00:04Are we almost there?
00:05Should be just beyond these trees.
00:11The newest member of our astronomical society.
00:14Welcome.
00:15Thank you, Mr. Grant.
00:16The detective tells me you've been to the Dominion Observatory.
00:21Yes, I have.
00:22It was incredible.
00:23The Dominion?
00:24I wish it wasn't all the way up in Ottawa.
00:26We only have the old Cook telescope here.
00:28Mr. Grant?
00:30How is your work on radio position signals coming along?
00:33I've made some great strides, but that's all I can say.
00:38Oh, uh, allow me.
00:42Hi.
00:44There.
00:45Are you a new member?
00:47Yes.
00:48My name is Macy.
00:50Lovely.
00:51Are you an astronomy student?
00:53In a way.
00:54I find it fascinating.
00:56The procession.
01:02I told you I was right.
01:10Incredible.
01:10I still can't believe it.
01:12I lost track of all of the meteors.
01:14Do you think it reached the Atlantic Ocean?
01:17What's that?
01:21It's a man.
01:22He's naked.
01:24Sir, who has a blanket?
01:28Sir.
01:29Come here.
01:31It's covered in some sticky substance.
01:34Sir?
01:36Are you all right?
01:39Who are you?
01:40Are you earthlings?
01:43Yes.
01:44Yes.
01:47And they must have sent me back.
01:50Back from where?
01:53There.
01:55In outer space.
01:58Yes.
02:03Yes.
02:05Yes.
02:06Yes.
02:09Yes.
02:11Yes.
02:22What's the last thing that you remember?
02:26Darkness.
02:28Noise.
02:31You're not going to believe this, but I always knew this would happen.
02:35That you would be taken by Martians?
02:38I don't know where they were from.
02:41Only that they took me up there to be with them.
02:46Can you tell us your name?
02:49They must have wanted to tell me my work was important.
02:53What is your work?
02:55I have to put it in terms that you will understand.
02:58But right now, I'm so tired.
03:03I've traveled so far.
03:07Sir, what is that substance he's covered in?
03:10I don't know, but I took a sample for analysis.
03:13Sir, is it true?
03:15Is this man from outer space?
03:17No, Henry.
03:19He is not.
03:22You said he broke in this morning?
03:24He didn't kill me.
03:25But he may as well have.
03:27Took every sin I had.
03:29I'm finished.
03:31Tell me exactly what happened.
03:35Well, I opened up the door for the day.
03:39A man rushed in, hat pulled down, sack covering his face.
03:44He was wearing gloves.
03:45Do you remember how tall he was?
03:47No.
03:49A little taller than you.
03:52With a deep voice.
03:54And you reported that he was armed?
03:56Yeah, he waved a gun in my face.
03:58I said, wait, the money's in the safe.
04:01But I didn't move fast enough for him.
04:04Fired off a shot.
04:05Oh.
04:12I'm gonna go to the bank once a month.
04:14All the money I had was in that safe.
04:17Looks like a .44 caliber bullet.
04:20Well, I don't know about guns, but cigars on the other hand.
04:26Interested?
04:27Well, no.
04:28I've got the best cigars in Toronto.
04:31No, thank you, Mr. Corman.
04:33I'll be in touch.
04:35This will give you a taste for it.
04:36Oh.
04:47Detective.
04:54You claim you were taken by extraterrestrials.
04:58Yes.
04:59Um, I was on a rooftop, and then I woke up in total darkness.
05:04And I heard, uh...
05:12What were you doing in that field?
05:14Did you predict the meteor procession?
05:18No.
05:19But perhaps it was there.
05:21The ships appearing as meteors.
05:24Can you tell us about your work?
05:26You claim these beings wanted you to share it.
05:29Yes.
05:30Yes, yes.
05:32Yes, uh, I-I've observed red shift, and I'll save three of the 15 spiral nebulae.
05:39What does this red shift mean?
05:43Uh, all matter in the universe.
05:46Stars, planets, this building.
05:49They're torn apart.
05:52I see.
05:54You think I'm mad?
05:56Well, I-I've discovered the key to the beginning and ending of all things.
06:03I need to speak to the newspaper.
06:06Perhaps we'll hold off on that, sir.
06:11I'm going to speak with some friends at the university physics department.
06:16One of their professors may have become troubled.
06:19Good thinking.
06:22Oh, sir.
06:24Henry, please take this man's finger marks and see if it matches any on record.
06:30Will do, sir.
06:35Ran into Detective Watts this morning.
06:38Oh.
06:40It was an armed robbery just down the street from the Starbright.
06:43Corbin's tobacconist.
06:45Why would anyone rob that store?
06:47There couldn't be more than $10 in the tail.
06:52Maybe someone was trying to send a message.
06:57I hope you aren't saying I had anything to do with that.
07:00I have nothing to do with guns.
07:02Is he on your rounds?
07:04Corbin's been paying $2 a month into the community fund like everyone else.
07:08And I haven't been asking him for more.
07:10Because you told me you were going to stop extorting businesses.
07:14I've kept my word.
07:16I want to believe you, Ephraim.
07:17But with everything that has happened this year...
07:19I know what this is about.
07:21You're upset.
07:23Your fiancé, or should I say, ex-fiancé, told you he was staying in Boston for good.
07:29How do you know that?
07:31Isaiah and I have mutual friends.
07:34Oh.
07:35Miss Hart, I apologize if I'm interrupting something.
07:40I was just leaving, detective.
07:46I have a sample for you to analyze.
07:49Where did this come from?
07:52Someone claims that it is from another planet, but I have reason to believe that it is from right here
07:57on Earth.
07:58Interesting.
08:00Leave it with me.
08:01Thank you, Miss Hart.
08:08Constable Roberts.
08:11I've said you can call me Teddy.
08:13You can hardly shout a colleague's Christian name in the street.
08:16How are you, Miss Persia?
08:18Constable McNabb told me about the man who came from space.
08:22He also took great delight in telling me the man was found naked.
08:25Yes, he claimed he fell from one of the meteors we saw.
08:28Did you see them?
08:29No, I was asleep.
08:30Incredible.
08:31I saw them do Detective Murdoch's telescope.
08:33Be that as it may, surely you don't believe this man.
08:36The inspector said to keep an open mind.
08:39One should have some common sense.
08:40I could never take a man seriously who entertains such wild ideas.
08:45Yes, of course.
08:46Say, there's a movie playing at the theatorium.
08:49The one about ancient Rome.
08:51I might attend.
08:52It looks edifying.
08:54I was thinking of going tonight.
08:55I might go tomorrow.
08:57Oh, we could.
08:58I hope you enjoy it, Constable.
08:59Good day.
09:08Roberts!
09:09What took you so long?
09:10I'm so hungry I could eat a horse.
09:12I was talking with Miss Berger outside.
09:15Oh, let me see.
09:17Where is he?
09:19Oh, the spaceman?
09:20It's in Detective Murdoch's office.
09:21He wanted to make a telephone call.
09:22To whom?
09:24A newspaper.
09:25Does Detective Murdoch know he's doing that?
09:27The man survived flying in outer space.
09:29Who am I to stop him using a telephone?
09:39Detective Murdoch!
09:40We've just been charting the meteor's path.
09:42We've heard of sightings from Minnesota and New York.
09:45Even a steamship near Barbados saw the perception.
09:48That is very interesting, but I've actually come about the man that we found here on the ground.
09:54Oh, yes.
09:55Is he so addled?
09:56Well, he refuses to give us his name or where he lives.
10:00I thought about taking him to the asylum.
10:02Take who to the asylum?
10:05One of my students?
10:07They are a mad bunch.
10:10Detective Murdoch, this is Dr. Boyes, the head of the physics department.
10:14Dr. Edmund Boyes.
10:16I read the paper you co-authored with Dr. Einstein about the cosmological constant.
10:22Ah, yes.
10:22My coefficient.
10:23Accounting for gravity in Albert's equations of our static universe.
10:28Uh, my good friend George Crabtree once suggested to Dr. Einstein that...
10:33Let me guess.
10:35He gave him the idea for general relativity?
10:38Lots of chaps say that.
10:41Detective Murdoch is trying to figure out where that man we found came from.
10:44The one who said he'd been in outer space?
10:47Mad as a box of frogs.
10:50Be that as it may, how did he know about the meteor procession?
10:54Or that we would be there?
10:56Good question.
10:58He also said he observed red shifts in the spiral nebulae.
11:03He sounds like an astronomer.
11:05He also claimed he was taken by Martians.
11:08He should be in an asylum.
11:10I'll ask around, detective.
11:12See if any of the other physics departments have anybody missing.
11:16Very good.
11:18I do have a moment to look at how you've charted the procession.
11:24Right this way, detective.
11:26It's a pleasure, Dr. Boyes.
11:32Sure.
11:33I collected the unknown man's finger marks and cross-referenced them.
11:37I couldn't find a match.
11:39Well, keep at it.
11:40And contact other constabularies to see if they have any missing men matching his description.
11:45Consider it done, sir.
11:46Uh, where is the man exactly?
11:50He's upstairs, sir.
11:52Sir, I asked you to keep him downstairs.
11:55Sir, I tried.
11:56He said he does not recognize Earth's authority.
12:01Sir?
12:02Hello?
12:04When did you see him?
12:05About an hour ago, sir.
12:15Sir, what are you doing?
12:17Not now, detective.
12:19What is all this?
12:21Looks like part of my radio connected to my transmitter.
12:25Yes, yes.
12:26I'm busy.
12:27Can't you see I'm busy?
12:29What are you doing?
12:32Answer me.
12:33I'm signaling them.
12:35I want them to come take me back.
12:39You want to go back to outer space?
12:41I wasn't just taken up there.
12:44I'm an extraterrestrial.
12:46And I want to go home.
12:58What makes you believe you were born on another planet?
13:03I've always been different.
13:04I understand mathematics and physics like no one else.
13:09I see new paths through old problems.
13:13That makes you highly intelligent.
13:15Not extraterrestrial.
13:18I was a sickly child.
13:20I grew up in an orphanage.
13:22I would cry myself to sleep feeling unwanted.
13:26Till Sister Blanche told me my secret.
13:29And what was that?
13:31She found me in a field.
13:33After I had fallen from a shooting storm.
13:36You know that's not possible.
13:40I know.
13:43She didn't know that stars were too far away.
13:46That it must have been a meteor.
13:57Ah, Roberts.
13:59What's all this about a man from outer space?
14:02The detective at night found him in the field, sir.
14:04Why does this newspaper say he landed at this station house?
14:07He called the newspaper himself.
14:10I'm surprised Miss Cherry's not leading the charge.
14:13She did telephone.
14:14She's in poor credit reporting on the striking, so she's furious she didn't get the exclusive.
14:17Oh, is she now?
14:18Oh, good day, sir.
14:20Ah, little.
14:21What do you know about this man from outer space?
14:23I am struggling to determine who he is and where he lives.
14:27What you should do is get him a one-way ticket to the asylum.
14:30I'm not so sure.
14:32I feel as though there is more to this man's story.
14:35Is he here?
14:37Who?
14:38The spaceman.
14:39Joseph Sutter.
14:41You know him?
14:42Sounds like him.
14:42He rented a room in my building three weeks ago, then just disappeared.
14:47When did you see him last?
14:49This past Sunday.
14:50And when I read about him in the paper, I packed up his things straight away.
14:53I do not need his type around my building.
14:56His type?
14:57Spacemen.
14:58I don't want them around me.
15:00What else can you tell us about, Mr. Sutter?
15:02Only that he seemed obsessed with planets and moons.
15:05I didn't understand any of it.
15:07Until now.
15:08The man's a crackpot.
15:10Good riddance to him.
15:11All right.
15:14Well, at least now we know his name.
15:16Joe Sutter from space.
15:19There's a letter to Mr. Sutter sent by Alan Grant.
15:23You know him?
15:24Yes.
15:26He was with us when we found Mr. Sutter.
15:30He's from the university saying that he should stop sending his work to the physics department.
15:38Bit of a coincidence they were corresponded, isn't it?
15:41It certainly is.
15:44It's a .44.
15:46Don't sell many of those anymore.
15:47Why not?
15:49Most people prefer the smaller caliber these days.
15:52What type of gun uses these bullets?
15:56Well, the most popular would be a Remington 1890.
16:01Do you remember a customer who bought .44s lately?
16:04Um, my customers are good people.
16:08Sportsmen.
16:09I wouldn't want to get anyone in trouble.
16:12I pried this bullet out of a store wall.
16:15It was fired during a robbery.
16:16Hmm, you don't say.
16:20Hmm.
16:21You do keep records of your customers, don't you, Mrs. Walker, as required by law?
16:26Well, of course, but I can tell you, I sold a box of those last week.
16:32First box I've sold in a long while.
16:34To whom?
16:39Mr. Ephraim current, but don't tell him I told you that.
16:47Did you know the man you sent the letter to was the same man we found in the field the
16:52night of the meteor procession?
16:54I had no idea.
16:55He sent us an envelope last week filled with fairly legible equations, but I never met him.
17:01Right.
17:01And, uh, did you look at any of his work?
17:04Well, I showed it to Dr. Boyes, and he told me to throw the papers away, so I sent that
17:09reply to be kind.
17:10Right.
17:11Um, I've brought some of Mr. Sutter's work.
17:15I've only just begun studying it, but it's very interesting.
17:19Are you talking about the man who sent us his scribblings?
17:23Yes. The man who sent you his work is the same man we found the night of the meteor procession.
17:29Oh. Poor fellow.
17:31He couldn't find anyone to take his work seriously, so he concocts a story about traveling in outer space.
17:38Detective Murdoch thinks there might be something to Mr. Sutter's work.
17:41Does he?
17:43You're hardly an expert, detective.
17:46No offense.
17:47Well, none take it.
17:48Alan, you threw out what he sent you, correct?
17:52Uh, yes, Dr. Boyes.
17:54I suggest you do the same, detective.
18:00Do you understand Sutter's work?
18:03Uh, to a degree.
18:06Mr. Sutter has observed red light shifts in distant galaxies, but he has also worked out distance correlations.
18:15Based on the period luminosity relation of variable stars.
18:21In English?
18:23Mr. Sutter has proven that the universe is expanding.
18:29This has immense ramifications to our understanding of the beginnings and the end of the entire universe.
18:38So he's right.
18:39All matter will be torn apart.
18:41Well, yes, possibly.
18:43But in billions of years.
18:46So why did Sutter tell the newspaper that our destruction was imminent?
18:50I don't know.
18:52His underlying theory is sound, but perhaps he's just found it all too overwhelming.
19:02Detective Murdoch?
19:04Where is the Martian?
19:06Mr. Sutter's in the cells.
19:08So you locked him up?
19:09Oh, he has arrest there.
19:11He's not under arrest.
19:12I don't understand why you lot are letting him stay at the station house.
19:16Send him on his way.
19:16Are you so very sure that he isn't telling the truth?
19:20Right.
19:20Thank you, Miss Hart.
19:25That mysterious membrane that was covering Mr. Sutter is comprised of baking soda, gelatin...
19:32Fruit.
19:33And traces of a metallic element that Miss Hart has been unable to identify.
19:38Is it not of this earth?
19:40She doesn't seem to think so.
19:44Mr. Sutter is either playing an elaborate game, or something beyond our understanding has happened to him.
19:51I may have something that could show us where the truth lies.
19:58Oh, I don't know why you're asking me about that robbery.
20:02Your name came up in my investigation.
20:05Who pointed me out?
20:06I was asked to not name the person for fear of reprisal, which only increases my suspicion.
20:13That's ridiculous.
20:14One person said my name?
20:16What proof is that?
20:18The type of gun likely used in the robbery is one I'm told you own.
20:23Remington, 1890?
20:25Oh, well.
20:26It was my father's.
20:28But I've never shot it.
20:30And I've never threatened anyone with it.
20:33Doesn't look good, Mr. Curran.
20:35The robbery was yesterday morning, correct?
20:38Yes.
20:39At 8 o'clock?
20:40I spent the night up in the junction.
20:41At 8 o'clock, I was waiting for the streetcar to undass in Keel.
20:45Some politician shaking hands on the street.
20:48Do you know anyone who can attest to your whereabouts?
20:52No.
20:55You'll have to come with me to the station house, Mr. Curran.
21:01And this measures what exactly?
21:04The pneumograph measures changes in physiology.
21:08If a subject lies, it will activate this needle and in turn measure changes in breathing,
21:15heart rate.
21:16Did you invent this, detective?
21:19I merely reworked existing technology.
21:22And this machine will tell you if I'm speaking the truth.
21:26Let me save you the trouble.
21:28I am.
21:32Shall we?
21:36All right.
21:39Is your name Joseph Sutter?
21:41Yes.
21:44It's true.
21:46What is your age?
21:4942.
21:51Where were you born?
21:53I do not know.
21:55I was raised at the Sisters of Blessed Saints Orphanage in Trenton.
21:59But I do know that I was not born on this planet.
22:05Were you taken by beings not of this earth prior to my finding you in the field?
22:13Yes.
22:14They were from another planet.
22:17As am I.
22:25All so true.
22:31Constable Roberts.
22:33I thought you were seeing this movie yesterday.
22:36I've decided to come today.
22:39Here's a free seat.
22:45Miss Bresher?
22:47Constable?
22:49I suppose it appears as though the constable and I are on a date.
22:53Yes, it does.
22:55We just ran into each other.
22:56Oh, don't worry, Miss Bresher.
22:58There's no fine for being on a date.
22:59Oh, but we...
23:00Shh.
23:01Shh.
23:03Shh.
23:04Shh.
23:04Shh.
23:05Shh.
23:05Shh.
23:06Shh.
23:07Shh.
23:07Shh.
23:08Shh.
23:09Shh.
23:09Shh.
23:41He passed your truthizer test with flying colors.
23:44Indeed.
23:46We can be certain Mr. Sutter believes he was taken to outer space.
23:51But there is another possibility.
23:53Oh?
23:55Someone abducted him and somehow made him believe that he was taken by extraterrestrials.
24:03That may be.
24:04But for now, he doesn't have any money or anywhere to go.
24:07And he can't stay here.
24:08He needs to be taken to the asylum until I can find more information.
24:16But if they want me back, how will I get to them?
24:19Mr. Sutter, what you need is a good long rest in a place where you can get some help.
24:23We believe it's what's best for you.
24:27Joseph Sutter?
24:28Yes?
24:29Take this, you traitor.
24:31No!
24:32Murdoch!
24:32Get him!
24:34Constables!
24:35Quickly!
24:42You're lucky you only injured, Mr. Sutter.
24:46Now start talking.
24:50What's there to say?
24:52You're a human, right?
24:54From planet Earth.
24:56So you understand?
24:59No.
25:00No, I don't.
25:01Why don't you tell me why you chose to stab Mr. Sutter?
25:07Look, he's a traitor to the human race.
25:10He put out a welcome mat for those Martians.
25:12They can control your mind.
25:14They can destroy the whole planet.
25:17Like that.
25:19Did you have something to do with Mr. Sutter's disappearance?
25:23You know, what do you mean?
25:25When they took him to space?
25:27Men from Mars or the Moon or Venus do not exist.
25:33Someone from Earth took Mr. Sutter.
25:36Was it you?
25:39I never laid eyes on a man before today.
25:42I only read about him in the paper.
25:45I see.
25:47For all we know, he's working with them.
25:52The people of Earth, they should thank me.
26:00Detective Murdoch.
26:02Please pardon the interruption.
26:04The doctor was just showing me something quite interesting.
26:07I'd like you to see it.
26:09I was just telling Mr. Sutter that when I was stitching up his wound,
26:11I was surprised the knife didn't punch her in his liver.
26:14And you've taken an x-ray?
26:16Yes, it's a new machine.
26:17I believe the detective is familiar with the machine.
26:20I saw one in his office.
26:21Oh, I see.
26:23If you'll just take a look right here.
26:30Dr. Emlight?
26:33Are Mr. Sutter's organs reversed?
26:36I haven't tried to tell you, detective.
26:38I was not born on Earth.
26:40They made me as a mere copy of a man.
26:47You both don't believe me.
26:50No one believes me.
26:53The bell.
26:55The bell.
26:55You tell me you heard that bell while he was abducted?
26:57I tried to tell him it was a streetcar bell.
26:59I was.
27:00That's not right.
27:01What other sounds did you hear, Mr. Sutter?
27:04The closest thing would be a whistle and a roar,
27:08almost like children shouting.
27:10Could those have been factory sounds?
27:12No.
27:13Of course not.
27:14You mocked me.
27:15Enough!
27:16No!
27:16Mr. Sutter, don't move.
27:17You ripped the stitches from your wound.
27:18I want to leave!
27:19Nurse!
27:19Get me out of here!
27:20Let me leave!
27:21You don't mind?
27:31You've come to gloat.
27:33That's not quite my style.
27:38Admit it.
27:40You're enjoying this a little bit.
27:43It's always a shame when someone is wrongfully incarcerated.
27:48So you do believe me?
27:51I know you had nothing to do with that robbery.
27:54If only the police knew that, too.
27:57What if I had proof?
27:59Of your innocence?
28:00Then give it to the detective.
28:02Get me out of here!
28:03No, no.
28:04Not so sure.
28:05It seems to me that I have more than just evidence.
28:08I have a bargaining chip.
28:16What do you want in return?
28:18Your word.
28:19That you will stop any illegal activity that you carry out with my name attached.
28:24I've already told you that I've stopped.
28:26I don't believe you, Ephraim.
28:28Why would someone want to frame you?
28:34Fine.
28:35From here on out, I won't be taking anything from anyone.
28:38Other than collecting on bar tabs.
28:41Why should I trust you?
28:43Because you want me to be a better man, Violet.
28:46And I will be.
28:53The Elm.
28:54Reversed organs.
28:56Maybe proof that he was a Martian.
28:59Cetus and Versus.
29:00It's rare, but it is documented.
29:03Well, at least you found the man who tried to kill him.
29:06Why do I get the feeling that you're not letting this case go?
29:10Sir, I think I may know a way to find out where Mr. Sutter was being kept while he was
29:14abducted.
29:15How do you plan on doing that?
29:17When I visited him in the hospital, he spoke of sounds that he heard while he was with them.
29:23What kind of sounds?
29:25A factory whistle, a streetcar bell, and children shouting.
29:29A factory and a school on a streetcar route.
29:31Exactly.
29:32How about here?
29:34St. Christina's Elementary, right across the street from Crane's Vinegar Manufacturer.
29:38There's no streetcar line on the map.
29:40Yes, there is.
29:41It's new.
29:43You're right, sir.
29:44The Toronto Civic Railway's newest line is on Girard Street.
29:48I may not know much about the heavens, but I do know this city.
29:56I didn't realize there were so many abandoned warehouses on Girard.
29:59We don't even know what we're looking for.
30:03Maybe that.
30:06Is that his ship?
30:09No.
30:10No.
30:10His ship would have burnt up on re-entry.
30:21No.
30:21This isn't a ship.
30:26But these may be his scrolls.
30:31Sir, I believe he was kept here.
30:35What's this?
30:41Looks like a radio proximity sensor.
30:45Two antennas connected to an amplifier.
30:50Mr. Sutter told us he heard otherworldly sounds.
30:57Sir, I believe someone has gone to great lengths to convince Mr. Sutter that he was amongst extraterrestrials.
31:03Do you know who could have made a device like this?
31:06I believe I do.
31:11Monday morning at 8 o'clock?
31:13Yes.
31:13You'll see Mr. Current at the corner of Dundas and Keele.
31:19It's quite a coincidence that you saw this.
31:22Well, I go to the pictures every week.
31:24It helps take my mind off my troubles.
31:28And do you have many troubles lately involving Mr. Current?
31:34Why do you ask?
31:45Because I think he was set up.
31:47And I'm unsure why.
31:50The shop owners lied?
31:52They must have known he owned a Remington.
31:55So it could all just be a big misunderstanding.
31:59Indeed.
32:00Thank you, Miss Hart.
32:02Glad I could help.
32:14Mr. Grant is not here.
32:17That antenna machine is likely Mr. Grant's.
32:19But what about the unidentified metal in the goo he used to cover Mr. Sutter in?
32:24He could have stolen it from the university's chemistry lab.
32:27Perhaps they have an element that we don't know of.
32:32Uh, sir?
32:34I believe I've found Mr. Grant.
32:43He's cold.
32:44He's been here for a while.
32:46That capacitor has a fair bit of blood on it.
32:48It must have been used to kill him.
32:51Hopefully there are finger marks.
32:52Perhaps Mr. Sutter realized that Mr. Grant was behind his abduction and exacted his revenge.
33:04Sirs.
33:05All right.
33:08I've talked to the head of the university chemistry department.
33:10He said he noticed a sample of hafnium missing last week.
33:14What is hafnium?
33:15Oh, the professor said it was just discovered.
33:17It's a metallic element of some kind.
33:20And I'm sorry.
33:22I don't know much about chemistry, sir.
33:24Neither do I.
33:25Fascinating stuff, though.
33:26Were there any finger marks on the capacitor used as a murder weapon?
33:30Unfortunately not, sir.
33:32The hospital just told me that Mr. Sutter left early in the morning.
33:36Giving him time to kill Mr. Grant.
33:39Where would he be now?
33:40Well, the only other place I can think of is his former apartment.
33:44Excuse me.
33:48I must confess, I'm a bit disappointed that our spaceman is most definitely from Earth.
33:54This time.
33:56I'm still keeping an open mind, sir.
33:58Hmm.
34:02Have a seat.
34:11Why was I brought here?
34:13The constable wouldn't say.
34:17Do you two know each other?
34:20Yes.
34:21We both own stores in the same neighborhood.
34:23Oh.
34:23I see.
34:24Did you apprehend the man who robbed my store?
34:27I did not.
34:30Because I'm not sure that your store was ever robbed.
34:34What do you mean?
34:35I've spoken to your suppliers, Mr. Corman.
34:38Two were paid yesterday, and your bank claims that you make deposits every three days, not once a month, as
34:45he said.
34:46I don't know what this has to do with me.
34:49I was getting to you, Mrs. Walker.
34:52Why did you tell me that the only 44 bullets you sold lately were to Ephraim Current?
34:57I was sure it was him.
34:59Well, we have film evidence that Mr. Current was on the other side of town at the time of the
35:05robbery.
35:06I don't know anything about that.
35:08You knew Mr. Current owned a Remington, and for some reason, you both were trying to frame him.
35:14Now, wait just a minute.
35:15My question now is, why?
35:21Mr. Corman, I could arrest you for making a false police report.
35:26And Mrs. Walker, I'm willing to guess that you helped Mr. Corman.
35:28Perhaps you loaned him a Remington?
35:34I'm not saying another word.
35:36Neither am I.
35:42Mr. Sutter.
35:43Detective.
35:47I'm here to speak with you about Alan Grant.
35:50He was found dead this morning in his office.
35:54What?
35:56Why?
35:57It may have something to do with the fact that he abducted you and made you believe that you'd been
36:02taken by extraterrestrients.
36:05That's impossible.
36:07That's impossible.
36:07A radio device that Mr. Grant made was found at the place where they kept you, along with your clothes.
36:15When I wasn't abducted by Mr. Grant, I was up there in the sky.
36:20Did you realize that Grant was behind this hoax?
36:23That's why you left the hospital?
36:25That's why you left the hospital, so you could confront him?
36:26No, I left because they thought I was mad.
36:30My landlady just gave me a letter that arrived early this morning from Mr. Grant.
36:36What does it say?
36:37He looked at the papers I sent, after you mentioned they might have some worth.
36:41You were right, he said.
36:44May I see it?
36:45Of course.
36:50He didn't destroy your work as he was instructed by Dr. Boyes.
36:56He must have been furious.
36:58My findings prove that Dr. Boyes' coefficient is completely erroneous.
37:05I am sorry about Mr. Grant.
37:07I don't know why he was killed.
37:09But no one on earth abducted me.
37:11I was up there.
37:16I am afraid you were not up in space.
37:21Don't you see?
37:22It was all a ruse to discredit you.
37:29I'm sorry, Mr. Sutter.
37:34You're wrong, Detective.
37:36They are up there.
37:38I'm one of them.
37:41I know I am.
37:42I found the place where Mr. Sutter was being kept, whilst he believed himself abducted by extraterrestrials.
37:52Joseph Sutter?
37:53Did he squirrel himself away somewhere?
37:57No.
37:59No, you took him.
38:03Me?
38:06What are you talking about?
38:08Mr. Sutter sent you his work.
38:11Work that proved your theories false.
38:14So you set out to discredit him.
38:18I suggest the constabulary keep to the murder of Mr. Grant and stop worrying over that spaceman.
38:25I'm getting to the murder.
38:27Alan Grant examined Mr. Sutter's work, and he saw that it was grounded in fact.
38:35Alan wasn't my best student.
38:38I also examined Mr. Sutter's work.
38:41You couldn't possibly understand any of it, Detective.
38:44I understand enough to know that the cosmological constant that you and Dr. Einstein have been working on is wrong.
38:53No.
38:54No, no, no.
38:55I am going to win a Nobel Prize for that.
38:58Now get out.
38:59To discredit Mr. Sutter's proof, you pushed an intelligent but otherwise emotionally unstable man over the edge
39:08by making him believe he'd been taken by creatures from space.
39:13He's mad.
39:15No one will listen to him now.
39:19Alan Grant brought you Mr. Sutter's work because he saw its worth, and you killed him.
39:31He wouldn't listen to me.
39:39I'm just going to send it all to Dr. Einstein.
39:44Dr. Boyes, you are under arrest for murder.
39:53I can't do that.
39:55Yes, you can.
39:56Go to Mr. Corman and Mrs. Walker and tell them you understand it was a mistake, and there were no
40:00hard feelings.
40:01They tried to frame me.
40:03But even if they did, can you blame them?
40:07I'll think about it.
40:09No reprisals.
40:10Right.
40:22So?
40:23Are you going to tell me?
40:24Tell you what?
40:25Why those two shop owners wanted Ephraim Current behind bars.
40:30Well, they said it was a mistake, don't they?
40:34There never was a robbery, Violet.
40:37And I don't know what they were doing.
40:41What reason would they have to lie?
40:43If I knew, I would tell you.
40:45And besides, if Ephraim was up to no good, do you think I would keep him around?
40:49No.
40:55Horrible.
40:56Why has anyone spoke this?
41:00Another glass, perhaps?
41:11I don't know.
41:13Don't.
41:18when you think about how many galaxies are out there and how many planets are in those galaxies
41:22we can't be the only intelligent life well if that's true then where are they what do you mean
41:30think about it if outer space is teeming with life then everyone would have met them by now
41:36you can call that the higgins newsome paradox you can call it what you want i've got to go
41:43oh are you late for a date perhaps with miss berger no i think i have a better chance meeting
