00:03:01Il Sancto
00:03:06Sì, sì.
00:03:40Sì, sì.
00:04:01I've got to.
00:04:02I don't think I know you, do I?
00:04:04You did.
00:04:06We went to school together.
00:04:08Hi.
00:04:09I'm Jeffrey Carter.
00:04:11Jeffrey Carter.
00:04:12Oh, yes, yes, I remember. How are you?
00:04:14You used to help me when we were in school.
00:04:17Now you've got to listen to me.
00:04:19Are you in trouble?
00:04:22Oh, I know I have no right coming to you like this.
00:04:25You're an important attorney now, and I'm...
00:04:27Well, I'm just nothing.
00:04:29I remember you were studying chemistry in college.
00:04:32You had a brilliant mind.
00:04:34That's what you said, a brilliant mind.
00:04:37Well, you'll see how brilliant when I tell you.
00:04:44You've got to listen to me.
00:04:47We'll go into my study.
00:04:54Strange things can happen to the brilliant mind, can't they, Brandon?
00:05:00Yeah.
00:05:01You ought to know.
00:05:03You see it every day, all around you.
00:05:06In the courts.
00:05:08In the prisons.
00:05:09Everywhere.
00:05:12The strange things that go on in the mind.
00:05:18Particularly a brilliant mind.
00:05:21Make yourself at home, Jeff.
00:05:26You'd better call the police.
00:05:28I'm afraid he's unbalanced.
00:05:29Yes.
00:05:32Sit down, Jeff.
00:05:41I suppose you think I'm acting strange.
00:05:44You're obviously in trouble.
00:05:46First, let me tell you.
00:05:47If you've come to me for legal aid, I'm going to have to disappoint you.
00:05:50I'm up to my neck in work now.
00:05:52If you'll only listen to me.
00:05:56You've never heard anything like I have to tell you.
00:05:59Now, if you'll just listen until I'm through, will you promise to do that?
00:06:09Very well.
00:06:10Let me remind you again.
00:06:11I'm too busy to take on any...
00:06:13I know.
00:06:15You're one of the biggest attorneys in town.
00:06:19You only handle important cases.
00:06:24But I...
00:06:30Let me show you.
00:06:47You promised to hear me through.
00:06:51You promised.
00:06:56All right, Carter.
00:06:59Now, listen.
00:07:14I can remember every detail of it.
00:07:18You see, I have a brilliant mind.
00:07:21You told me so yourself, Brandon.
00:07:24My whole life was wrapped up in chemistry.
00:07:28Not for glory, no.
00:07:29You know, I wanted to work for mankind.
00:07:34That's the kind of a fool I was.
00:07:38But that was my philosophy.
00:07:41I wanted to help suffering humanity.
00:07:45That's all I wanted.
00:07:47Not money, not glory.
00:07:50Just to help.
00:07:52I understand.
00:07:53Go on.
00:07:57It all started several years ago.
00:08:01I was on my way home from the laboratory.
00:08:05From a day's work.
00:08:07It was Christmas Eve.
00:08:09And the only problem on my mind was...
00:08:12how to balance a Christmas tree on one arm...
00:08:15some packages on the other.
00:08:17While digging into my coat pocket for a dime.
00:08:21Merry Christmas.
00:08:22I liked my neighbors, and they seemed to like me.
00:08:26Even the kids.
00:08:28My packages were just dime store knick-knacks.
00:08:32Nothing like the things I wanted to give.
00:08:35But it was all I could afford.
00:08:38I didn't make much money.
00:08:40Didn't live in a high-class neighborhood.
00:08:44Merry Christmas, Jeff.
00:08:46Same to you, Jack.
00:09:16Let me see.
00:09:19Come are you, darlin'?
00:09:20Well, I think I should tie a bell around your neck so that I know when you're home.
00:09:28Say, smells good.
00:09:29Mmm, we're splurging for Christmas. Lamb chops.
00:09:32What, no turkey?
00:09:33Not at these prices.
00:09:36Well, I don't care.
00:09:38Everybody else has turkey on Christmas.
00:09:40We have lamb chops.
00:09:42See, see, that makes us different.
00:09:43Yes, I do see, darlin'.
00:09:45But every now and then I'd like to be just plebeian and eat turkey.
00:09:50Yeah, I know what you mean.
00:09:52Sometimes I think you married the wrong guy.
00:09:54You know, I never will be a businessman.
00:09:56That's no secret, darlin'.
00:09:58That's how your boss, Mr. Graham, gets rich on your ideas.
00:10:01Yes, and you have to pay the price, Mary.
00:10:04Oh, sweetheart, I'm sorry.
00:10:06I just forget what kind of a person you are.
00:10:09All the money and the glory that he gets through you doesn't mean a thing to you, does it?
00:10:13Well, the only important thing is...
00:10:15I know.
00:10:16Helping mankind.
00:10:18Dinner's just about ready.
00:10:20Say, is Tommy asleep?
00:10:22Oh, yes, Jeff, and please don't wake him up.
00:10:25I had an awful time getting him settled.
00:10:27Maybe just a peek.
00:10:32Oh, Jeff, he can't eat that stuff.
00:10:34No, but he can look at it, can't he?
00:10:37After all, a kid's got to have a stocking when he wakes up Christmas morning.
00:10:40And he ought to have a fireplace to hang it on.
00:10:42How's he gonna think Santa Claus gets in?
00:10:45Well, that's easy.
00:10:46Through the window.
00:11:08No, you're not supposed to cry when Santa Claus comes.
00:11:12All right, Santa Claus.
00:11:14Talk yourself out of this one.
00:11:16No, you're not supposed to cry when Santa Claus comes.
00:11:19You get him settled now.
00:11:20And hurry up, dinner's ready.
00:11:22All right.
00:11:33Here.
00:11:34Here.
00:11:36That's it.
00:11:37Now, don't tell your mother.
00:11:49Now, how in the world did you get him quiet so fast?
00:11:52Just told him to shut out, and he did.
00:11:54Well, hurry up and get washed.
00:11:57Everything's on.
00:11:58Okay.
00:12:23Jeff, come here and see what Santa Claus has done.
00:12:27Say, that looks swell.
00:12:29Complete with old Nick himself.
00:12:31Jeff, I wish we could have some...
00:12:36Why, Jeff.
00:12:39Where are you going, Jeffrey Carter?
00:12:41You don't mean to tell me you're going back to work tonight.
00:12:44Well, it isn't exactly work.
00:12:46It's only for an hour or so.
00:12:47I started to write something today and promised to finish it tonight.
00:12:50I don't care what you promise, darling.
00:12:52Your Mr. Graham can exploit your talents every day of the year.
00:12:55He can take your discoveries and get rich on them
00:12:57while we eat stew seven times a week for tonight's dip, darling.
00:13:00It's Christmas, you know.
00:13:02Oh, no, you don't.
00:13:03Not if I can...
00:13:03Hey!
00:13:06Oh, so this is what's so important.
00:13:11I find it difficult to express my heartfelt appreciation for the great honor you have done me.
00:13:17I feel that I am merely a servant of the people, that it is my privilege and humble duty...
00:13:23to help suffering mankind.
00:13:26I am merely an instrument chosen to extend this new discovery to a waiting world.
00:13:32Alleviation of human suffering has been the motivating force behind this work.
00:13:38If what I have accomplished is worthy of distinction in the circle of this learned society...
00:13:44then I am indeed humble in accepting the recognition accorded my efforts.
00:13:50I am indeed humble, oh.
00:13:53What a nice boss we have.
00:13:55A kind, generous soul.
00:13:57Why, he's not only kind enough to steal your ideas and take the glory.
00:14:00but he's even willing to let you write his acceptance speech for him.
00:14:04I'll cut it out, will you?
00:14:06And so at this time...
00:14:08I would like to pay tribute to the men and women in my laboratories who have helped me.
00:14:15I bet he stayed up all night figuring out that little bone he just threw to you.
00:14:20I don't care. I think you're crazy, Jeff.
00:14:22Why, with your brains, you ought to set up your own lab and get some of the credit you deserve.
00:14:26Hmm.
00:14:27After all, Graham does own the largest medical distributing company in the city.
00:14:32I think it's more important to get the stuff out than it is to worry about receiving the credit for
00:14:36it.
00:14:36Yeah, yeah, I know. Suffering humanity and all that stuff.
00:14:39Well, I still think you're a sucker.
00:14:41It's all in the way you look at it.
00:14:44Yeah, maybe you're right.
00:14:45I suppose when you've made some big discovery, like the cure for cancer...
00:14:49Graham will be big enough to let us come and see him receive the award for that, too.
00:14:53Jeff, the boss wants him.
00:14:54All right.
00:14:55Here we go again. The big rush act.
00:14:57Well, for once, stand your ground, will you?
00:14:58You know he can't do without you.
00:15:03Stevens, I thought you told me Carter was going to have his formula finished two weeks ago.
00:15:06I thought he would, but you know Jeff Carter as well as I do.
00:15:09He's a little on the careful side that you can't rush him.
00:15:12Yeah. Well, that may happen.
00:15:18You sent for me, Mr. Graham?
00:15:20Oh, Jeff.
00:15:22Cigarette?
00:15:23No, thanks.
00:15:25How's the experiment coming?
00:15:27Oh, I think I'm on the right track now.
00:15:29Of course it needs development, but I believe it has definite possibilities.
00:15:33Well, I'm sure it has, judging from what you told me some time ago.
00:15:36I sure hope it works.
00:15:39Always cautious, aren't you, Jeff?
00:15:41Well, knowing you as I do, I don't need any further proof.
00:15:44Now, here's what we're going to do.
00:15:46You turn your notes in to Stevens and we'll get this thing into production immediately.
00:15:49There never was a better time than right now to put that drug on the market.
00:15:53Oh, but we can't do that.
00:15:55You see, I have to be absolutely sure that we're right.
00:15:57Well, don't worry about it, Jeff.
00:15:59As soon as we get into the process of production, I'll give you all the time you need to perfect
00:16:02it.
00:16:02But listen, Mr. Brown...
00:16:03Now, let's not discuss it, Jeff.
00:16:05Turn in the notes and let's get this thing started.
00:16:08Oh, the notes are in my head.
00:16:11And they're going to stay there until all of my experiments have been completed.
00:16:18You're forgetting something, aren't you?
00:16:20What?
00:16:21Well, I'm paying you to take orders from me.
00:16:25I'm not going to let you force the medicine on the public that might prove useless.
00:16:29You mean you refuse after all I've done for you?
00:16:31Well, I think I've done a few things for you too, Mr. Graham.
00:16:35Or do you forget the awards that the Chemical Society has given you for the things that I have discovered?
00:16:41I'm surprised at you, Jeff.
00:16:44That doesn't sound like you at all.
00:16:47Well, I guess it doesn't, but...
00:16:49Well, you're not going into production on this until I know it'll do what it's supposed to do.
00:16:53Do you think I pay you to fool around with test tubes month after month?
00:16:57And when I get ready to put something on the market, have you tell me that you aren't sure?
00:17:01But these things can't be done in a day. Sometimes it takes a lifetime.
00:17:05Well, I have no intention of giving you a lifetime to develop anything.
00:17:09I'm interested in the medical market today.
00:17:11And that has to be clearly understood between us as long as you're working for me.
00:17:15I'm sorry, Mr. Graham. I was working for you.
00:17:18You have my resignation.
00:17:26Well, that's gratitude for you.
00:17:29He'll be a hard man to replace.
00:17:32Or he'll be back.
00:17:35I'll blacklist him in every lab in the city.
00:17:37He won't get a job anywhere.
00:17:50Oh, hello, Mr. Carter.
00:17:52Hello, Mrs. Todd.
00:17:53I knew you'd be in today, so I have it all wrapped and ready for you.
00:17:56Oh, thank you.
00:17:57You know, that's the 158th box of candy you've bought from me.
00:18:00Really?
00:18:01Yes, two a week, ever since I've been here.
00:18:03And it hasn't hurt your figure a bit.
00:18:05Oh, Mr. Carter, you say the cutest things.
00:18:09How much is this?
00:18:10Oh, still a dollar.
00:18:16Well, Jeff, I let you go home early. It's New Year's Eve.
00:18:20Are you sure you won't need me tonight?
00:18:21Oh, don't worry about me.
00:18:23The only thing they'll be buying is headache powders and aspirins for tomorrow morning.
00:18:27Have a good time, you and the missus.
00:18:29You worked pretty hard this year.
00:18:32Uh-oh, Mr. Moore.
00:18:33Uh, my wife and I were wondering if my work...
00:18:36Listen, doctor, don't worry.
00:18:38As long as I'm here, you'll have a job.
00:18:40You are the best pharmacist I ever had.
00:18:43You are almost better than I am.
00:18:46Now, I appreciate your work.
00:18:49Really, that is here.
00:18:51This is for you and the missus.
00:18:54And these here are for little Tommy.
00:18:57Oh, thank you.
00:18:59Have a good time, my wife.
00:19:00Well, enjoy these.
00:19:14Hi.
00:19:15Hi.
00:19:16Daddy.
00:19:16Oh, hiya, Sprout.
00:19:18How are you doing?
00:19:19Fine.
00:19:20That's good.
00:19:21Where's your mommy?
00:19:22In the kitchen.
00:19:23Oh.
00:19:23And where else would I be at dinner time?
00:19:26Hey, I want to get in on this.
00:19:28Oh, wait a minute.
00:19:29You're with her all day.
00:19:33Okay.
00:19:36Oh, got a present from the boss for New Year's Eve.
00:19:39Oh, wonderful.
00:19:41Um, Jeff, how about the rays?
00:19:45It was nice of the boss to give us that, wasn't it?
00:19:48Jeff, didn't you ask him about the rays?
00:19:52No, I forgot.
00:19:54Oh, well.
00:19:55Go wash your hands.
00:19:57Dinner's just about ready.
00:19:58Yeah.
00:20:02Daddy, what's a rays?
00:20:04That's something your father apparently isn't interested in.
00:20:08And stop eating that candy before dinner.
00:20:11Well, what is a rays?
00:20:13You'll have to ask your father.
00:20:15Don't you know, Daddy?
00:20:17It's more money.
00:20:19You got more money?
00:20:21I wouldn't know what to do with it if I was a ray.
00:20:22If I had it.
00:20:23Mommy says she would.
00:20:27Women are funny that way.
00:20:31Come on, Jeff.
00:20:32I'm all ready.
00:20:33Okay, I'll be right there.
00:20:35You didn't tell him what I did.
00:20:37No, but I think he'll find out soon enough.
00:20:48Who broke this test tube?
00:20:54I said who broke my test tube.
00:20:58As though I didn't know.
00:21:00Okay, young feller.
00:21:02That's gonna come out of your allowance.
00:21:04At a nickel a week, you're losing money awfully fast, Tommy.
00:21:07Yeah, I gotta figure out how I can get a rays.
00:21:10I'm afraid your father won't be much help there.
00:21:24To the other day, you're losing money.
00:21:24I've been doing that.
00:21:24I feel like I've accomplished an impossible task when I get him in bed.
00:21:27You can say that again.
00:21:34Now that's that.
00:21:35Now we can celebrate.
00:21:36Good.
00:21:40Happy?
00:21:42Very.
00:21:47Sounds like we have company
00:21:50Hello, Barry
00:21:52Say, in case you don't know it, this is New Year's Eve
00:21:55So we're inviting you downstairs for a party
00:21:57They're much too sober
00:21:59Who's sober?
00:22:00I guess they'll offer anybody to be sober on New Year's Eve
00:22:02Well, come on, we've even got the landlady high on a kite
00:22:05Oh, no
00:22:06Oh, boy, is she flying?
00:22:08Oh, that I want to see
00:22:10Well, come on
00:22:11Somebody's got to stay here with Tommy
00:22:13Why, can't he take care of himself?
00:22:15I'm not so sure of it
00:22:16But, dear, if you'd like to go
00:22:17Oh, come on, Mary, it's a one-year-old
00:22:19Why, of course not, go have some fun
00:22:22I'll be down a little later
00:22:23Well, promise
00:22:23Sure I will
00:22:24But, sister, I'll see you later
00:22:27Come on, Mary, we've got it
00:22:36Real fast
00:22:43Excuse me
00:22:44We're awfully stupid
00:22:46Well, not on New Year's Eve
00:22:47That's one night you're permitted to fall all over the place
00:22:56Oh, I'm terribly sorry
00:22:58Well, you should be
00:23:00Young man, if you can't hold your liquor, then just stop drinking
00:23:03That's right, uh-huh
00:23:04Tell me, do you know where Jeff Carter lives?
00:23:07Uh, oh, you bring Carter to tennis?
00:23:09Yes
00:23:09He makes gin in the bathtub
00:23:12All the way up and the first door to the left
00:23:14Thanks a lot
00:23:15You're welcome
00:23:15Oh, happy New Year, sir
00:23:21Come in
00:23:32Hello, Jeff
00:23:34Who's there?
00:23:39Graham
00:23:39I'm glad to see you, Jeff
00:23:40It's been a long time
00:23:41Yes, it has
00:23:43What are you doing here?
00:23:44Oh, New Year's
00:23:45You know, new resolutions
00:23:46That should be made before the year ends
00:23:48This way you work now?
00:23:50Yes, at night
00:23:52I have a job in a drugstore now
00:23:54Well, that's no place for you to be working
00:23:58You saw to it that I wouldn't work anywhere else
00:24:00I know
00:24:02And I'm sorry
00:24:03But I'm glad to see you're keeping up with your experiments
00:24:06Oh, yes, I work at it whenever I have the time
00:24:09Sit down
00:24:10Thank you
00:24:12Glass of wine?
00:24:13No, thanks
00:24:15How are things with you?
00:24:17Frankly, not too good
00:24:19There's no sense beating around the bush, Jeff
00:24:21I came to ask you to come back to work for me
00:24:25Oh, you feel that I've been punished enough, huh?
00:24:29Oh, I don't blame you for being bitter
00:24:32As a matter of fact, I admit that I didn't appreciate you when you were working for me
00:24:37You know, Jeff
00:24:39Ever since you left, I've hired any number of chemists
00:24:43Not one of them has produced anything worthwhile
00:24:48Perhaps you didn't give them enough time
00:24:50Till old acquaintance be forgot
00:24:54And never brought to mind
00:24:58Cutting in
00:24:58Till old acquaintance be forgot
00:25:02Hello, beautiful
00:25:06Now relax, sweetheart
00:25:08It's New Year's Eve
00:25:10Now wait a minute
00:25:11Hey, come back here
00:25:15I told you that stuff would throw you
00:25:17I wish you'd reconsider
00:25:18I can make it very much worth your while
00:25:21There's one thing you've never quite understood, Mr. Graham
00:25:25I guess that's because you're a manufacturer and I'm a chemist
00:25:29Money isn't important
00:25:32I make barely enough to get along
00:25:34But my wife and I are happy
00:25:36And that's more than most people can say
00:25:37Of course, I can understand that, Jeff
00:25:40But for the life of me, I can't see why a man like yourself
00:25:42Can't do just as good work with a few of the nice things in life
00:25:46Instead of, well, this
00:25:49Think what I can give you
00:25:50All the facilities at your disposal
00:25:52To carry on any experiment you wish
00:25:54With all the time you want
00:25:56And what have you got here?
00:25:57A few test tubes stuck up in a bathroom
00:25:59Oh, I know that'll sound wonderful
00:26:01In the biography of a great chemist
00:26:02A hundred years after he's dead
00:26:04But you ought to think of the present
00:26:06I'm offering you your old job back at your own terms
00:26:09I'm sorry, I'd rather struggle along as I am on my own
00:26:12Oh dear, how was the party?
00:26:15A little loud
00:26:16Dear, this is Mr. Graham, my wife
00:26:18How do you do, Mr. Graham?
00:26:20Oh, your wife?
00:26:21Well, I'm delighted
00:26:23I'm sorry I never had the pleasure of meeting you formally
00:26:25And that is, while Jeff was working for me
00:26:27I assure you, it was my loss
00:26:29Well, I've heard a great deal about you, Mr. Graham
00:26:31Oh, I'm afraid not much in my favor
00:26:34I've been trying to get your husband to erase the past
00:26:36But he's a very stubborn person, Mrs. Carter
00:26:38Yes, I know
00:26:42Well, good night to both of you and Happy New Year
00:26:45Happy New Year
00:26:46Thank you
00:26:52Looks like Graham isn't getting along so well since I left
00:26:57You should take that as a compliment
00:26:58Yeah, I suppose so
00:27:01But any time Graham gives out any compliments
00:27:03There's something behind it
00:27:06He just wants to use me again for his own profit
00:27:09Why don't you use him this time?
00:27:12What do you mean?
00:27:15Look, darling
00:27:16You're trying to develop one of the most important things of your life
00:27:20You've been telling me for the last two years
00:27:21You'd give your right arm for a decent lab to work in
00:27:24And sit at the corner of a bathroom
00:27:28Well, Graham's offering it to you
00:27:29And at your own terms
00:27:31Yes, but you don't know him
00:27:33No, but I think I know you
00:27:35You're stubborn, Jeff
00:27:37Sometimes you're too stubborn
00:27:40Listen, honey, I want to ask you something
00:27:44Haven't you been happy since we've been married?
00:27:46Oh, of course I have, darling
00:27:48But I don't see why we have to spend the rest of our lives
00:27:51Living in a cheap boarding house
00:27:52When you have a chance of doing something so much better
00:27:57You want me to go to work for him again?
00:28:00Yes, I do
00:28:02Why?
00:28:04Just so that we can have more money?
00:28:07Well, if you want to put it that way
00:28:09After all, it's time you thought a little bit about Tommy and me
00:28:12He deserves some of the opportunities the other children have
00:28:17Instead, you're standing on your own pride
00:28:20And here I thought you were with me
00:28:22Oh, but I am, Jeff
00:28:23I just don't want you to go on spending the rest of your life like a thwarted genius
00:28:27When a man like Graham offers you everything you need to work with
00:28:30Oh, if it was anyone but Graham
00:28:31Oh, Jeff, don't be such a fool
00:28:34Take advantage of him this time
00:28:36Then if things don't work out, you can always leave
00:28:40I never knew you felt this way
00:28:42Well, I do
00:28:44And I don't see that it's so wrong of me to want some of the things that the other people
00:28:47have
00:28:47Well, such as a decent place to live and nice clothes for a change
00:28:51And not to have to worry about whether we can afford a couple of lamb chops, grade B
00:28:56Oh, I know these things don't make any difference to you, Jeff
00:28:58But they do to me
00:28:59They do to any woman
00:29:01And if you want to call me selfish for feeling that way
00:29:04Well, then I guess I am selfish
00:29:24Jeff
00:29:25Oh, darling, I'm so sorry
00:29:27No, that's what I should say to you
00:29:30But I didn't mean it
00:29:31I know what you meant, and you were right
00:29:33You and Tommy certainly deserve more than I've given you
00:29:39Happy New Year, darling
00:29:41It's going to be a new year
00:29:46Well, Oscar, these two up here seem to be getting along all right
00:29:49Yes, it's the other one I'm worried about
00:29:52Three alive and one dead
00:29:54Well, three out of four isn't bad
00:29:55Well, that's not good
00:29:57Well, stick to it, Professor
00:29:59Oh, gee, I better get going
00:30:00I don't want to miss that date
00:30:01See you later, Jeff
00:30:02And don't work too late now, remember
00:30:04Graham won't pay you any overtime
00:30:06Hello, Dave
00:30:07Hello, Mr. Graham
00:30:09Well, how's it coming, Jeff?
00:30:11Well, I don't know
00:30:12A few days ago, I injected these four rabbits with disease germs
00:30:16Then I gave them my drug
00:30:18Today, three are alive and well, the other dead
00:30:21Well, it sounds like you've accomplished a great deal
00:30:24Yeah, not with the dead one
00:30:26Oh, I'm afraid if we try perfection and everything
00:30:28We'd have to wait a long time
00:30:29It seems to me that a 75% average in a thing like this is pretty good
00:30:33Well, I don't know
00:30:34I've been checking my notes
00:30:36It's not good enough
00:30:37We must have perfection
00:30:38Have you named the drug yet?
00:30:40Zymogene
00:30:43Sounds all right
00:30:44There's only one trouble
00:30:45I haven't been able to lay my hands on a particular mold
00:30:48This mold comes from certain plants in South America
00:30:53South America, huh?
00:30:56Yes
00:30:57I've been burning a lot of midnight oil studying up on it
00:30:59Well, tonight you're coming over to my house with your wife for dinner
00:31:02Oh, that'll be fine
00:31:04She'll like it
00:31:04You know, she hasn't been out much lately since I've been working on this
00:31:07Well, we'll try to show her some fun
00:31:09She deserves it
00:31:10Make it about seven
00:31:11Fine, we'll be there
00:31:12Good
00:31:14Miss Rogers, I have Stephen step into my office right away
00:31:17Yes, thank you
00:31:20See you later, Jeff
00:31:20Right
00:31:41Mary
00:31:44Mary
00:31:45What's going on here?
00:31:47Coming into the house, blasting the place down
00:31:50And Mrs. Carter trying to put her child to bed
00:31:53Well, I'm Mr. Carter
00:31:55Oh, you are, are you?
00:31:57Well, I'm Mrs. O'Connor
00:31:58And I'll thank you not to be making so much noise when you come tramping in
00:32:03All right
00:32:05Hello, darling
00:32:05I was just putting Tommy to bed
00:32:07Say, who's that?
00:32:08Why, that's Mrs. O'Connor
00:32:09She answered our ad for a housekeeper
00:32:11She's wonderful
00:32:12She doesn't like noise
00:32:19Well, I guess a person has to kind of get used to things
00:32:24Say, maybe she's got something there
00:32:26You mean we have
00:32:27Ah, ah, ah, don't you sit down
00:32:29We're going out tonight
00:32:31We are? Where?
00:32:32Over at the boss's
00:32:33He invited us for dinner
00:32:34You mean Mr. Graham?
00:32:35Uh-huh
00:32:36Oh, darling
00:32:37Things are looking up all over, aren't they?
00:32:39They sure are
00:33:01I don't know when I've enjoyed a dinner so much
00:33:03Yes, it looked almost too good to eat
00:33:05Well, thank you
00:33:07Judging from the looks of Jeff
00:33:08You must be an excellent cook yourself, Mrs. Carlis
00:33:10She is
00:33:11Oh, it isn't that
00:33:12Jeff's so easy to please
00:33:14Well, we'll have coffee in the drawing
00:33:23You have a lovely home, Mr. Graham
00:33:25Yes, it's nice
00:33:26Gets lonely at times
00:33:27Oh, beg pardon, sir
00:33:28There's a telephone call for you
00:33:30Oh, just make yourselves comfortable
00:33:32I'll be back in a moment
00:33:33Do you mind pouring?
00:33:34I'd love to
00:33:34Thank you
00:33:35Excuse me
00:33:36Sure
00:33:38He's nice, isn't he?
00:33:39Mm-hmm
00:33:43Hello
00:33:45Yes, Stevens, they're here
00:33:47I found the formula in the notes
00:33:48I'm copying them right now
00:33:49It'll take at least a couple of hours
00:33:50Well, that's all right
00:33:51Take all the time you need
00:33:53Be sure to copy everything carefully
00:33:54All right
00:34:00I'm so sorry
00:34:01That was a long-distance call
00:34:02Thank you
00:34:04Well, Jeff
00:34:05I have good news for you
00:34:06I saved it until after dinner
00:34:08What's that?
00:34:09It's all arranged for you
00:34:10To go to South America
00:34:12South America?
00:34:14You mean you'd really send me down there?
00:34:16Of course
00:34:17If I thought you could find
00:34:18What you're after
00:34:18I had no idea
00:34:20You were thinking of any such thing
00:34:21Well, it just developed today
00:34:22Yes, darling
00:34:23I'm on the brink
00:34:24Of an important medical discovery
00:34:25Well, I practically have it in my grasp
00:34:28I only lack one vital element
00:34:30A certain mole
00:34:31That comes only from South America
00:34:32I've arranged to have Dave
00:34:34Your assistant go with you
00:34:35You can set up your laboratory
00:34:36And complete your experiments down there
00:34:38Well, that's wonderful
00:34:42Oh, you wouldn't mind, would you, darling?
00:34:44After all, it's in the interest
00:34:45In medical science
00:34:47No, I wouldn't mind
00:34:50How long do you think you'd be gone?
00:34:52Well, that depends upon
00:34:53How long it takes to find the mole
00:34:55Oh, thank you, Jeff
00:34:58Thank you
00:34:58Well, now that's settled
00:35:00When would you leave?
00:35:02Oh, just as soon as I could
00:35:03Get my equipment together
00:35:04Well, here's to Jeff's success
00:35:06And a pleasant trip
00:35:18Going to miss you, darling
00:35:19And I'm going to miss you, too
00:35:21You'll write to me, won't you?
00:35:22Every day
00:35:23All the shorts going ashore
00:35:27Well, I guess I'd better get off
00:35:29I did all right in the night boat to Albany
00:35:31I hope I don't get seasick
00:35:32On this trip to South America
00:35:33How's your Spanish, Dave?
00:35:35I know the book by heart
00:35:37Jeff, I got you all fixed up on the eight deck
00:35:39Much better cabin
00:35:40Oh, that's swell
00:35:41See?
00:35:42That's what comes of knowing the right people
00:35:44Yeah, increasing the right palm
00:35:47Goodbye, darling
00:35:48Goodbye, dear
00:35:54Well, goodbye, Jeff
00:35:56Goodbye
00:35:57Bye, Dave
00:35:58Have a successful trip
00:36:00Thanks
00:36:19May I see you home?
00:36:21Why, yes, thank you
00:36:38I want you to have a look at these samples
00:36:40Those boxes are for the pills
00:36:41Those bottles for the powders
00:36:42And these for the liquids
00:36:43Well, I think you could make the lettering larger
00:36:46Make it stand out more
00:36:47Yes, I thought so, too
00:36:48Well, how's that strike you?
00:36:52That's okay, very nice
00:36:53Get a big spread
00:36:54Right
00:36:55Well, Stevens
00:36:56Looks like we're on our way
00:36:57Certainly looks that way
00:36:58Now, when do you think you can get this on the market?
00:37:00About three weeks
00:37:01Good
00:37:01How long will Carter be in South America?
00:37:04For quite some time yet
00:37:10So, keep your fingers crossed
00:37:11We may know in a week or so what we have
00:37:17The rest is personal
00:37:18It looks like he's really accomplishing something now there, doesn't it?
00:37:21Oh, I hope so
00:37:22It's been over a month now
00:37:24It hasn't seemed that long
00:37:26Oh, by the way
00:37:28I have something here I want to show you
00:37:30Jeff sent it to me from South America
00:37:34Oh, it's interesting
00:37:35Isn't it?
00:37:36I wonder where it would look best
00:37:38Over the mantle, of course
00:37:39And that's where it'll be
00:37:42Right here, huh?
00:37:44I'll have Jason hang it later
00:37:46Isn't this beautiful?
00:37:47Where did you get it?
00:37:48Oh, I picked a pair of them up years ago in Bombay
00:37:51Bombay?
00:37:52That must have been exciting
00:37:53Well, it was more than that
00:37:54It was educational
00:37:55You know, people in the Orient
00:37:57Go far beyond the boundaries of physical life
00:37:59As a matter of fact
00:38:00I spent quite some time with a Hindu teacher
00:38:02Who taught me how to develop the power
00:38:04Of the transmission of the will
00:38:07When you have that
00:38:07You can have anything you want in life
00:38:11Mental suggestion?
00:38:13I don't believe it
00:38:14Oh, you don't, don't you?
00:38:18Well, why do you suppose you're here tonight?
00:38:21You came because I wanted you to
00:38:23You're wrong
00:38:24I came because I wanted to
00:38:53I wanted you to
00:39:02Hi there, Sr. Gonzalez
00:39:03Here, come here
00:39:03Come on
00:39:05Come as well, sir
00:39:06Oh, you don't say, huh?
00:39:08Next time, make sure that her husband's not around
00:39:12Hasta la vista, my friend
00:39:13Words to that effect
00:39:15How you doing?
00:39:16Okay, I guess
00:39:18You know, that mole's just what the doctor ordered
00:39:20I've mixed enough of it with the drug to start to work
00:39:22You mean success at last?
00:39:24Oh, don't write that QED quite so fast
00:39:27You know, we haven't tried it yet
00:39:28Tonight, we're going to inject these eight monkeys with various diseases
00:39:33Then we'll try the drug on four of them
00:39:35That ought to prove something
00:39:37Pipe down, sweetheart
00:39:38He wasn't talking to you
00:39:39But right now, I could do with something to eat
00:39:41How about it?
00:39:42Si, Sr.
00:39:43My assistant, Sr. Gonzalez and I
00:39:45Will prepare for you a most delicious meal
00:39:47The food she's coming up soon now
00:39:49Maybe later, too
00:39:51All right, chef
00:39:52I'll write Mary a letter while you're doing that
00:39:55And tell her how I could use a good meal
00:39:56I resent that
00:40:01How about that lettering?
00:40:02Is that more what you had in mind?
00:40:03Oh, yes, yes, that's much better
00:40:04We'll give this the biggest exploitation campaign any drug ever had
00:40:07Well, here's three testimonials
00:40:09Two of influenza, one of pneumonia
00:40:12Uh, did these people actually use the drug?
00:40:14Oh, yes, but
00:40:15After they were well on the way to recovery
00:40:18Oh, I see
00:40:34Now, what are you doing?
00:40:36Trying to get up nerve enough to go in there and see what happened
00:40:39You mean you haven't been in there yet?
00:40:41No
00:40:41To be honest with you, I'm about half afraid
00:40:43You want me to go in?
00:40:44Oh, no
00:40:46No, I've got to face it sometime
00:40:49Come on
00:40:57All for them are dead
00:40:59Yes
00:41:03But look at the others, alive and kicky
00:41:07Dave, it works
00:41:09It sure does
00:41:11How do you feel, professor?
00:41:13Oh, I don't know
00:41:14I can hardly believe it
00:41:15Well, there's your proof
00:41:16The four you gave the drug to are alive
00:41:18The other four are dead
00:41:19I don't know what more you want
00:41:20Gee, it's marvelous, Jeff
00:41:22You did it, you did it
00:41:24Gonzales is congratulating you, too
00:41:26You know, the wonderful part about it is
00:41:28Is that the substance we were looking for in the mold
00:41:31Can be made synthetically back home
00:41:33Yeah?
00:41:34Hey, say, Graham would be glad to hear that
00:41:35He was sure getting itchy fingers
00:41:37To put this drug of yours out on the market
00:41:38Yeah, well, he can go to work on it
00:41:40As soon as he gets my formula
00:41:43Wait till he sees this
00:41:44Yeah
00:41:45He'll mail you a medal
00:41:49Yes, Stevens
00:41:50Take a look at that
00:41:52Hmm, that's interesting
00:41:54Looks like we got Zymogine on the market
00:41:56Just about the right time
00:41:57To be on the safe side
00:41:58We better double our output
00:41:59Pay before you, Mr. Graham
00:42:00Oh, thanks
00:42:01Must be from Jeff
00:42:03Well, let's see what the wonder boy's doing
00:42:04Now in South America
00:42:08Well, he's completed his experiments on Zymogine
00:42:11He's sending the formula by airmail
00:42:14And it'd take us quite a while
00:42:15To change our setup, wouldn't it?
00:42:16Certainly would
00:42:17Well, forget it
00:42:18With the uprising in this new flu epidemic
00:42:19Mike, we're bound to lose out on sales
00:42:22Yes
00:42:25Yes, Mr. Graham
00:42:26Ah, Miss Rogers
00:42:27Bring in your book and file
00:42:296834
00:42:29I thought we discarded that formula
00:42:31We've developed a new interest
00:42:32Temporarily
00:42:36Take care of Jeff Carter
00:42:41The formula which you are sending
00:42:43Will be put into operation
00:42:44As soon as it's humanly possible
00:42:46My congratulations to you
00:42:47On your success
00:42:49Certain new developments
00:42:50Make it imperative
00:42:52For you to remain in South America
00:42:54For further work
00:42:56And at airso
00:42:57We'll mail you an outline
00:42:58Of these new experiments
00:42:59Again, my heartiest congratulations
00:43:00And best wishes
00:43:01Send that right off
00:43:06Jeff will be gone
00:43:07For quite a while
00:43:08You think we ought to put on a new man?
00:43:11That's a good idea
00:43:12All right
00:43:16Now get me Mrs. Carter
00:43:20It's been a very pleasant evening, Mary
00:43:23I've enjoyed the dinner, the play
00:43:24But mostly your company
00:43:25Of course, the play could have been better
00:43:28I thought it was quite good
00:43:30Oh, little old-fashioned, don't you think?
00:43:31All that triangle stuff
00:43:33You don't believe it could have happened?
00:43:35Oh, it could have happened, of course
00:43:36But not exactly that way
00:43:37It was a bit too far-faced
00:43:39The reason for suspicion
00:43:41Well, after all
00:43:42I thought she was an attractive girl
00:43:45I think he had a reason to be jealous
00:43:47It served him right
00:43:48He left her alone too long
00:43:49And when Jeff comes home
00:43:50I'm going to make it my business
00:43:52To have him see that show
00:43:53If it's still running
00:43:55What do you mean?
00:43:56Well, Mary, certain things have come up
00:43:58That make it necessary
00:43:58For him to stay there a little longer
00:44:01Well, he didn't say a word about that
00:44:04He wrote that
00:44:05He'd completed his experiments
00:44:07And that Symergene was a proven success
00:44:10I thought from his letter
00:44:11That he'd be back any day now
00:44:12Scientists are like doctors
00:44:14Their work is so unpredictable
00:44:16A waiter
00:44:17Check, please
00:44:39It's been a lovely evening, Mr. Graham
00:44:41I can't thank you enough
00:44:43I can't tell you how much our association has meant to me
00:44:47I was hoping maybe it meant something to you too
00:44:50Well, it has
00:44:53I guess I'd better go in now
00:44:54Good night
00:45:00Good night
00:45:07Oh, Mr. Conner
00:45:08Oh, I'm so glad you're home, ma'am
00:45:09I've been trying to get you all evening
00:45:11Well, what's the matter?
00:45:12Tommy's sick
00:45:12Tommy
00:45:15I called the doctor
00:45:16He's upstairs with him now
00:45:26Tommy
00:45:27Hello, mommy
00:45:28You're Mrs. Conner
00:45:29Yes
00:45:30I'm Dr. Williams
00:45:30How do you do, doctor?
00:45:32What is it?
00:45:33Shall we go outside?
00:45:43He's a pretty sick boy, Mrs. Conner
00:45:45I'm afraid it's influenza
00:45:47But he was all right when I left home
00:45:49Is it very bad, doctor?
00:45:51It's a little too early to say yet
00:45:52His fever is quite high
00:45:54It's over 103
00:45:55If it gets any higher, call me
00:45:57All right
00:46:02Dr. Williams
00:46:10Dr. Williams
00:46:11Can't we give him zymogene?
00:46:13Zymogene?
00:46:14Yes
00:46:15Oh, yes
00:46:15I'm afraid I couldn't honestly recommend that
00:46:18It hasn't been thoroughly tested and proved
00:46:20But Jeff
00:46:20That's my husband
00:46:21He wrote me about it
00:46:22He worked on it
00:46:23It's a positive cure
00:46:24I can understand your enthusiasm, Mrs. Carter
00:46:26But unless we're sure
00:46:28Oh, but you don't understand
00:46:30Wait, I'll show you
00:46:37After extensive tests
00:46:38I can say without hesitancy
00:46:40That zymogene is a definite cure for influenza
00:46:43So, you see, it must be so
00:46:44Mrs. Carter, I would advise against it
00:46:46Good night
00:46:48Good night
00:47:09Mr. Reed, do we have any more zymogene in the stockroom?
00:47:15Zymogene again?
00:47:16Everybody's after it
00:47:17Don't know why
00:47:18From what I hear
00:47:18It hasn't proved any too effective
00:47:20You can sell almost anything
00:47:21If they advertise it enough
00:47:33Cable for you, genius
00:47:35Oh, thanks
00:47:36Well, it's either for Mary or Graham
00:47:38Take a guess
00:47:39I'll take Mary
00:47:40On account of I like her better than Graham
00:47:43That makes it unanimous
00:47:49What's the matter?
00:47:50It's from Mary
00:47:52Tommy's sick with influenza
00:47:54Oh, gee
00:47:55She says they tried zymogene
00:47:57And it doesn't do any good
00:47:58He's getting worse
00:48:00But I know it works
00:48:02We proved it
00:48:03Yeah, sure we did
00:48:04Come on, I've got to go to town
00:48:06We've got to send Mary a telegram
00:48:15Buenas Dias, senor
00:48:16Buenas Dias, Jose
00:48:20Buenas Dias, Jose
00:48:21Well, how's business, Jose?
00:48:22Well, sometimes he's good
00:48:24And sometimes he's bad
00:48:25Now he's good and bad
00:48:27You sure get everything
00:48:28From soup to soybeans here
00:48:29Cloves, vegetables, materials
00:48:32Can goods, medicine, la...
00:48:41Jeff, come here
00:48:47Zymogene
00:48:49Jose
00:48:50Where did you get this?
00:48:52Oh, that is very fine medicine, senor
00:48:54That is from the States
00:48:55How long have you had it?
00:48:58Oh, a long time now
00:49:00Maybe one month
00:49:01But Graham hasn't had my formula that long
00:49:03Look at the label on the back
00:49:04See what the contents are
00:49:07Where's the label?
00:49:08This isn't my complete formula
00:49:09This is the old one
00:49:11I can't understand how he got a hold of it
00:49:13But I'm beginning to understand
00:49:14Our little trip to South America
00:49:17Yes, and a lot of other things, too
00:49:20That man Graham is a disgrace to our profession
00:49:23But when I get home
00:49:24There won't be a single organization
00:49:26That'll do business with him
00:49:40Now, don't worry, Jeff
00:49:41Tommy's gonna be all right
00:49:42He'd better be
00:49:43And don't worry about anything here, either
00:49:44I'll take care of everything
00:49:45And I'll close up the lab
00:49:47Thanks, Dave
00:49:47You've been swell
00:49:50I just can't understand
00:49:51How I could have been such a fool
00:49:53Oh, you mean about Graham, huh?
00:49:55Yeah
00:49:57When I think of how
00:49:58He must have laughed at me
00:49:59Behind my back
00:50:02It's
00:50:03It's just like he'd taken my head
00:50:06My mind and brain
00:50:07And used it
00:50:09Used it like something
00:50:10You'd bought in a store
00:50:12Only he didn't buy it
00:50:14He stole it
00:50:18Well, now I'm going to get it back
00:50:20Now I'm going to use it
00:50:22Not Graham
00:50:23And if anything happens to Tommy
00:50:25I told you to stop worrying about Tommy
00:50:27Nothing's gonna happen to him
00:50:31To think that I've been living in another world
00:50:34Well, I haven't been fair to Mary or Tommy
00:50:36Or even to myself
00:50:38Hey, sir
00:50:39Now I'm back to her
00:50:40We'd better get going
00:50:41Yeah
00:50:51No, Gonzalez
00:50:52You stay here
00:50:53And clean up the joint
00:51:09Mrs. Carter
00:51:12Mrs. Carter
00:51:14Mrs. Carter
00:51:15Mrs. Carter
00:51:16Mrs. Carter
00:51:16Mrs. Carter
00:51:16Mrs. Carter
00:51:16Mrs. Carter
00:51:16Mrs. Carter
00:51:25Mrs. Carter
00:51:29Mrs. Carter
00:51:29Mrs. Carter
00:51:29Mrs. Carter
00:51:32Mrs. Carter
00:51:53No, no, no, no.
00:52:04Thank you.
00:52:10Doctor.
00:52:14Mrs. Carter, I...
00:52:16can't tell you how sorry I am.
00:52:24No!
00:52:58Oh, hello, Jason.
00:52:59Good evening, Mr. Graham.
00:53:01Glad to see you back, sir.
00:53:02Oh, thank you. It's nice to be home.
00:53:04Anything happen while I've been away?
00:53:05No, sir. Things have been rather quiet.
00:53:07Oh, Mrs. Carter called.
00:53:08Oh, really?
00:53:09Get her on the phone at once.
00:53:10Very good, sir.
00:53:19Hello?
00:53:20Who?
00:53:23Just a moment and I'll call it.
00:53:26Mr. Graham is on the phone.
00:53:28Graham?
00:53:30Tell him I'm not home.
00:53:31Yes, ma'am.
00:53:34Now, wait a minute.
00:53:36I'll speak to him.
00:53:42Hello?
00:53:45Tonight?
00:53:49Yes, I think I'd like to see you.
00:53:54No, I'd rather come over to your place.
00:53:59Yes, I'll leave right away.
00:54:07I'll go to bed, Miss O'Connor.
00:54:11Be out a little while.
00:54:40Thank you, Jason.
00:54:41You may have the night off.
00:54:42Thank you, sir.
00:54:43Good night.
00:55:12Hello, Mary.
00:55:13It's so nice to see you.
00:55:17It was good of you to come over.
00:55:22I hope you're not angry at my calling you so late.
00:55:24No.
00:55:25Now, let me take your coat.
00:55:26Thank you.
00:55:28Your purse?
00:55:34Please sit down.
00:55:38Mary, I've missed you.
00:55:39I tried to reach you, but you're out of town.
00:55:41Oh, a little business trip.
00:55:43Would you like a glass of champagne?
00:55:46Yes, I think I would.
00:55:47Fine.
00:56:26Mr. Carlton.
00:56:27Oh, hello, Mrs. O'Connor.
00:56:29Where's Mrs. Carlton?
00:56:30She went out a little while ago.
00:56:33How's Tommy?
00:56:38I said, how's Tommy?
00:56:42I thought you knew.
00:56:45Who?
00:56:47Knew what?
00:56:48What are you trying to tell me?
00:56:50He...
00:56:51He...
00:56:52He's dead.
00:57:00Where's Mary?
00:57:02She's out.
00:57:04I said, where is she?
00:57:07She went over to see Mr. Graham.
00:57:20Oh, my God.
00:57:27More champagne?
00:57:29No.
00:57:30I think I've had enough now.
00:57:35Mary, there's something I've been wanting to tell you for a long time.
00:57:40Yes?
00:57:42I'm sure you must have known all along how I feel about you.
00:57:46No, Mr. Graham.
00:57:49I don't think I ever really understood you until now.
00:57:53I've loved you ever since I first met you.
00:57:57Is that why you sent Jeff down to South America?
00:58:00Well, I must admit you were the inspiration for the idea.
00:58:05You had no intention of bringing him back.
00:58:08You meant to keep him down there, didn't you?
00:58:11You haven't been too lonely without him.
00:58:16Mary, you have to listen to me.
00:58:19I'm crazy about you.
00:58:21I've always wanted to.
00:58:23You don't think I came here tonight just to let you make love to me, do you?
00:58:27Well, Mary, I don't understand you.
00:58:30You're a murderer.
00:58:32You killed my son.
00:58:33I killed your...
00:58:35No.
00:58:38Jeff told you how to make up the drug that would have saved Tommy's life, but you didn't.
00:58:41You let him die.
00:58:43Mary, you don't know what you're saying. You're hysterical.
00:58:46No, I'm not.
00:58:47I'm not going to kill you just as surely as you killed my son.
00:58:51And as surely as you killed hundreds of other people.
00:58:57You let all of those people die, Graham.
00:59:00Jeff.
00:59:11You've taken everything in my life away from me.
00:59:16Wait a minute, Jeff. You've got to let me explain.
00:59:18Don't you?
00:59:18Now you want my wife.
00:59:27I'm going to take something back that belongs to me.
00:59:30Stay where you are.
00:59:33Stay where you are.
00:59:35Something I've got to have.
00:59:38Jeff.
00:59:39Jeff.
00:59:55I killed him.
01:00:00I had the feeling that...
01:00:03Graham was me.
01:00:06Me, Jeff Carter.
01:00:09My mind was his.
01:00:12My brain was in his head.
01:00:14And I knew that I must have it back to make it mine again.
01:00:21Don't you see?
01:00:23That's why I killed him.
01:00:26Just to get back something that belonged to me.
01:00:30That's all.
01:00:33Yes.
01:00:34I think I understand.
01:00:38I know that nobody can help me.
01:00:44I know that now.
01:00:57Jeff.
01:00:58Jeff, darling.
01:00:59Jeff, darling.
01:01:12Don't worry.
01:01:13He'll be all right.
01:01:14I'll do everything I can for him.
01:01:41Go.
01:01:43Go.
01:01:45Go.
01:01:46Go.
01:01:47Go.
01:01:48Go.
