00:00:10To be continued...
00:00:36Oh, my God.
00:01:00Oh, my God.
00:01:43I once loved this island.
00:01:46This is where I found peace and quiet.
00:01:49The peace of waves forever breaking on the shore.
00:01:52The quiet of tranquil moonlight on the sea.
00:01:55When the night wind rises and the fingers of the frogs steal in,
00:01:59they say you can hear voices.
00:02:01They say it's the dead growing restless and calling to the living.
00:02:05I never believed it until that evening, Bye came looking for me.
00:02:11But you always knew that marriage was out.
00:02:13I never lied to you.
00:02:15But I always thought that...
00:02:16Look, Bye, whatever you thought is your business.
00:02:19But it's all over. It's finished.
00:02:21You should never have come here and you'll be doing yourself a favor
00:02:23if you take the first boat back.
00:02:25I can't go back without you.
00:02:28Please come back with me, Tom.
00:02:30Just tell me you changed your mind.
00:02:32Nobody even knows I'm on the island.
00:02:33I chartered a private boat over.
00:02:35I won't even go back to the club. I'll quit right now.
00:02:38Bye, will you for heaven's sakes realize when a good thing is over?
00:02:43A second-rate singer like me doesn't fit in the picture anymore.
00:02:48I hear she's quite young and has money, too.
00:02:51Bye, please understand. I'm in love with her.
00:02:56I need you, Tom.
00:02:58No one will ever love you more than I do.
00:03:02I'm sorry, Bye.
00:03:05I'm sorry for everything.
00:03:08Good night, Bye.
00:03:11I still have your letters.
00:03:22I've never been in a lighthouse before.
00:03:25Show me the light, darling.
00:03:40What about the letters, Bye?
00:03:42Oh, I never throw anything like that away.
00:03:45You never know when they might come in handy.
00:03:48I wonder how she'd feel if I read them to her.
00:03:51Putting in pertinent footnotes, of course.
00:03:58Or maybe I'll have to show them to a lawyer.
00:04:00I'm sure he'd know what to do with them.
00:04:03How would a lawsuit fit in with your music career, Tom?
00:04:07How would the piano genius of jazz feel about that kind of publicity?
00:04:14Darling, you look as if you were ready to kill me.
00:04:16Now, you get this straight.
00:04:18I'm marrying Meg.
00:04:20And you get this straight, Tom Stewart.
00:04:22No one will ever have you but me.
00:04:28Help me.
00:04:30Please, Tom, help me.
00:04:33Take my hand.
00:04:35Pull me out.
00:04:38Save me, Tom, please.
00:04:41Please.
00:04:42Please save me.
00:04:44Please.
00:04:45Please.
00:04:46Please.
00:04:46Please.
00:04:53Please.
00:05:09Please.
00:05:20Please.
00:05:31Please.
00:05:32Please.
00:06:11Let's go.
00:06:47Let's go.
00:06:51Who is it?
00:06:52It's me, Sandy.
00:06:54Oh, Sandy.
00:06:55What are you doing?
00:06:56Sandy, look, do me a favor, will you?
00:06:59And run out and play somewhere. I'm busy.
00:07:09I...
00:07:10Don't you like me anymore?
00:07:14Sure, I like you. I love you.
00:07:16I just want to be by myself.
00:07:19Where were you last night?
00:07:22The Emerson's had a beach barbecue.
00:07:24And everyone on the island was there.
00:07:26Meg was looking all over for you.
00:07:29Sandy, please run along.
00:07:32Okay. Sorry to disturb you.
00:07:35I almost forgot.
00:07:37The wedding announcements came.
00:07:39And Mommy wants you to look at one before we send them out.
00:07:42There's only a week till the big day.
00:07:44Yeah, okay, okay.
00:07:47What's that?
00:07:52Look what I found.
00:07:57I wonder who's it is.
00:08:04Do you know anyone named Clyde?
00:08:08Uh...
00:08:09No.
00:08:10I'll take care of it.
00:08:17I've got to take it easy.
00:08:18I didn't find any dead woman.
00:08:20Only seaweed.
00:08:23I know what's the matter with me.
00:08:24I'm seeing things.
00:08:25I'm letting my imagination run wild.
00:08:28Is it my conscience?
00:08:29No.
00:08:30Why should it bother me?
00:08:31I didn't do anything to buy.
00:08:33I didn't kill her.
00:08:35It's her own fault she's dead.
00:09:10I'm telling her.
00:09:13You're just a good friend.
00:09:14I'm sorry.
00:09:14Oh, my gosh.
00:09:15Hey, Miss.
00:09:16No.
00:09:18She's not a jury.
00:09:19I'm sorry.
00:09:21No.
00:09:28She was the only one of the women's children.
00:09:49She came out here of her own accord.
00:09:51She leaned against the railing, she fell.
00:09:53It wasn't my fault if it gave way.
00:09:55Why should I be blamed? I had nothing to do with it.
00:09:58In any way nobody ever needs to know.
00:10:00Nobody will even connect me with her.
00:10:03Why should they?
00:10:04Except for this watch of hers.
00:10:07All right, bye.
00:10:09That's the end of you.
00:10:48Tom?
00:10:52Tom?
00:10:53Oh, Meg.
00:10:56Meg, it's you.
00:11:00Are you expecting someone else?
00:11:02Oh, no, no.
00:11:03It's just that I wasn't expecting anyone.
00:11:07What are you doing up here?
00:11:09I'm looking for you.
00:11:11What are you doing up here in this old lighthouse?
00:11:14Well, I...
00:11:15At least it's quiet.
00:11:17I... I wanted to think.
00:11:21I guess I'm worried about that Carnegie Hall thing next month.
00:11:24I wonder if I'm good enough.
00:11:26Of course you're good enough.
00:11:28You're the best jazz pianist in the world.
00:11:34Darling...
00:11:35I've never loved anyone before in my life.
00:11:39Oh, Lord, did I?
00:11:45Do you smell perfume?
00:11:50It is perfume.
00:11:52Arpege.
00:11:55It's so cold and gloomy in here.
00:11:58It gives me the creeps having that big lamp staring at us.
00:12:02I haven't liked it up here since the lights stopped working.
00:12:04I'm glad they're going to tear it down.
00:12:07Well, let's go outside to the sun's warm-up.
00:12:16Coming?
00:12:19Come on.
00:12:54They're sending me down tomorrow.
00:12:56Oh, you're gonna love it, Tom.
00:12:58Ooh, I was supposed to see about a tie for Dad, and I forgot.
00:13:03I'll be so glad when this whole thing's over with, won't you?
00:13:08It'll only be a week more.
00:13:10We can't wait that long, can't we?
00:13:25You love me so much, Tom. You do love me, don't you?
00:13:39What is it?
00:13:41Look.
00:13:44Don't you see anything?
00:13:47Yeah, there's nothing to see.
00:13:49Right there.
00:13:56There's nothing there.
00:14:00What's the weather?
00:14:03Meg.
00:14:05I've got to get out of here.
00:14:07Right away.
00:14:09Meg, let's elope.
00:14:11We can catch a boat to the mainland and be married this afternoon.
00:14:15What about the wedding?
00:14:16Well, I was never for a big deal anyway.
00:14:18I only agreed to it because you wanted it.
00:14:20Does it matter that I still want it?
00:14:22Please, Meg, please, do this for me.
00:14:24Just go away with me right now.
00:14:27I told you that's impossible.
00:14:29I don't have my mother and father to think of as well as you.
00:14:33Then I'll have to go by myself.
00:14:35What about the wedding?
00:14:39What about it, Meg?
00:14:42If you go, there won't be one.
00:14:44That's all.
00:14:47Meg.
00:15:05And now I will perform the greatest of all magic accomplishments ever performed on this island.
00:15:11The secret cabinet.
00:15:13As you will please notice, the cabinet is empty.
00:15:16Tom.
00:15:17Tom.
00:15:18Tom, you're not paying any attention.
00:15:20Don't you want to see the secret cabinet?
00:15:23Oh, sure I do.
00:15:24I wouldn't miss it.
00:15:25Go ahead.
00:15:26If I close the doors to the magic cabinet and say the magic words and tap it with my magic
00:15:32wand, abracadabra, we no longer have an empty cabinet.
00:15:38It is now filled with jelly beans.
00:15:41Tom Stewart.
00:15:44Find one you are.
00:15:48Oh, Sandy.
00:15:50Sandy.
00:15:51If you hate me for the rest of your life, I deserve it.
00:15:54I couldn't take you no matter what you did.
00:15:57No matter what I did?
00:15:59No matter what.
00:16:00Even like fighting with your sister? Meg's mad at me, you know.
00:16:04She'll get over it.
00:16:05Besides, if she doesn't, you'll be free to marry me.
00:16:09Okay.
00:16:10From now on, you're the other woman in my life.
00:16:15Okay, honey.
00:16:16You run along now.
00:16:17I've got some practicing to do.
00:16:18I'll clean up your magic stuff.
00:16:20Bye.
00:16:21Bye, Tom.
00:16:33Bye.
00:16:38Bye.
00:16:39Bye.
00:17:14Bye.
00:17:15Bye.
00:17:15Bye.
00:17:15Bye.
00:17:15Bye.
00:17:19Bye.
00:17:20Bye.
00:17:23Bye.
00:17:25Bye.
00:17:28Bye.
00:18:03Empty arms, I embrace the memory of you.
00:18:30Who's there?
00:18:33It's Mrs. Ellis, Tom.
00:18:44I brought you some flowers.
00:18:47Is something the matter, Tom?
00:18:50What makes you say that?
00:18:52You sound upset.
00:18:54Perhaps I'd better check you another time.
00:18:56Oh, no, no, Mrs. Ellis.
00:18:58No, come in and sit down.
00:19:01Thank you for the flowers. They're lovely.
00:19:03Sit down right here.
00:19:08Mrs. Ellis, I want to ask you something.
00:19:13Sounds kind of silly, but...
00:19:15Well, do you believe that the spirits of the dead can come back to haunt the living?
00:19:19Do you believe in ghosts?
00:19:22What makes you ask a thing like that?
00:19:25You haven't answered, Mrs. Ellis.
00:19:27Nobody believes in ghosts nowadays.
00:19:30Well, do you?
00:19:31If anybody was to ask me seriously, I would have to say no.
00:19:35Of course, a real estate agent runs into many strange things in an empty house sometimes.
00:19:41What kind of things?
00:19:42Well, there was a family named Samuels.
00:19:46They lived in that last house down the beach.
00:19:49One day, their little boy took his dog and went fishing.
00:19:53They never came back, and nobody knows what happened to them.
00:19:57After the Samuels moved away, I signed three tenants during that first month,
00:20:04but not one of them would stay more than a few days.
00:20:07Yeah, yeah, I know that story, but that doesn't prove anything.
00:20:11They complained about an unseen dog whining and scratching at the door,
00:20:15but that wasn't what made them break their lease.
00:20:19It was the cold up in the boys' room.
00:20:23You could feel it in your bones.
00:20:25A deathly cold.
00:20:27The walls were always damp and stained with sea water.
00:20:32Whatever caused it, the thing came back every night.
00:20:35Did you ever see it, Mrs. Ellis?
00:20:37It's been many years since I've seen anything.
00:20:40Oh, yeah, I'm sorry. I keep forgetting. Did anybody see it?
00:20:45People say they found wet seaweed on the boy's bed.
00:20:49Well, but you can't call wet seaweed a ghost, can you?
00:20:54Tom, what's wrong?
00:20:57Why do you ask that?
00:20:59You're running away from something.
00:21:03Well, Tom?
00:21:07Well, something I...
00:21:11I can't believe exists myself.
00:21:14If it does exist, you can't solve anything by running.
00:21:20Then, on the other hand, if it doesn't exist, there's nothing to run from.
00:21:27You're a very wise woman, Mrs. Ellis.
00:21:31Thanks for talking with me.
00:21:33Oh, and thanks for the flowers.
00:21:35They're beautiful.
00:21:38Come back soon.
00:21:53Now, go away.
00:21:57Go away.
00:22:01No, leave me alone.
00:22:05No.
00:22:08Tom.
00:22:10Tom.
00:22:12Tom.
00:22:15Tom.
00:22:15Tom.
00:22:18Tom.
00:22:20Tom.
00:22:22Tom.
00:22:22Tom.
00:22:25Tom.
00:22:25Help me, Tom.
00:22:32Help me.
00:22:33Tom.
00:22:35No, I don't.
00:22:36Tom.
00:22:37Tom.
00:22:38Tom.
00:22:51I can't believe you.
00:22:56I can't believe you.
00:23:02I can't believe you.
00:23:09I can't believe you.
00:23:10I can't believe you.
00:23:10Come on.
00:23:10Bye.
00:23:10No, go away.
00:23:12You're dead.
00:23:13Leave me alone.
00:23:14I'll never be, darling.
00:23:16I'll always be.
00:23:18Always.
00:23:20Always.
00:23:21Always.
00:23:24Always.
00:23:25Always.
00:23:28Always.
00:23:30Always.
00:23:31Always.
00:23:33Always.
00:23:34Always.
00:23:35Always.
00:23:36Always.
00:23:36Always.
00:23:37Always.
00:23:38Always.
00:23:41Always.
00:23:52No.
00:24:13No.
00:24:43No.
00:25:17No.
00:25:24Bye.
00:25:29You can't hear me, can you?
00:25:32Because you don't even exist.
00:25:35You're a shadow, perhaps.
00:25:38Light, perhaps.
00:25:40Nothing more.
00:25:44But...
00:25:45Bye, just in case you can hear me...
00:25:49I've come to tell you this.
00:25:53I'm not going to pay any attention to you anymore.
00:25:58I'm going to live my life right here.
00:26:01I'm going to stop running.
00:26:03And I'm going to marry Meg, bye.
00:26:07I'm going to marry Meg.
00:26:28Just in case you can hear me, bye.
00:26:36Good night.
00:26:37Good night.
00:26:38Good night.
00:26:38Good night.
00:26:39Good night.
00:26:44No one will ever have you than me.
00:27:05Good night.
00:27:06Good night.
00:27:07Good night.
00:27:08Good night.
00:27:09Good night.
00:27:12Good night.
00:27:14Good night.
00:27:14Good night.
00:27:15Good night.
00:27:27Mrs. Elf said you wanted to see me. What about her?
00:27:31I, uh, sit down.
00:27:34I wondered if you'd, uh, talk to your sister Meg for me.
00:27:38Tell her how sorry I am.
00:27:39Okay.
00:27:41You tell her I behaved like a little boy, and I'm ashamed of myself.
00:27:45I'll tell her.
00:27:46She didn't call anything off.
00:27:49She didn't?
00:27:50Uh-uh.
00:27:51Guess she's ready to make up.
00:27:53Just like grown-ups.
00:27:56Are you all ready?
00:27:58Yeah, I'm all ready.
00:27:59Have you got the ring and everything?
00:28:01Mm-hmm.
00:28:02Let me see it.
00:28:05Okay.
00:28:18Oh, it's gorgeous.
00:28:22Make sure you're lucky.
00:28:25Can I try it on?
00:28:26Sure.
00:28:28What I really want is one of my own.
00:28:31Well, you might be just a little bit young.
00:28:34I know.
00:28:35Dear little Sandy, she's just a child.
00:28:38Why, do you know how old I am?
00:28:40I'm practically nine.
00:28:42Why, in China and Borneo and India, places like that, girls already have husbands at my age.
00:28:48Hmm.
00:28:49I'd get married tomorrow if I could find someone like you.
00:28:54Can't I please try the ring?
00:28:57Why, just put it on your finger.
00:28:59Put what on my finger?
00:29:00The ring.
00:29:00I don't have the ring.
00:29:22What's the matter?
00:29:23Did you drop it?
00:29:26It couldn't fall far.
00:29:28It's got to be here somewhere.
00:29:31Sandy, Sandy, don't touch it.
00:29:33What town?
00:29:34That, right there.
00:29:37There's nothing there.
00:29:50Sandy, Sandy, tell me the truth.
00:29:52Didn't you see anything right there?
00:29:54There wasn't anything to see.
00:29:56You hurt.
00:29:58I'm sorry.
00:30:01Well, I'll find the ring later.
00:30:04You run along now, Sandy.
00:30:06I've got to finish my practice.
00:30:09Goodbye, Sandy.
00:30:10I'll see you later.
00:30:16I'll see you later.
00:30:18Bye.
00:30:18I know now you've come back.
00:30:21But it won't do you any good.
00:30:24Because I'm going to marry Meg.
00:30:29Now, what'd you do with the ring, bye?
00:30:33Bye.
00:30:35What did you do with that ring?
00:30:36What did you do with that ring?
00:30:42Peg, I want to talk to you.
00:30:46I love you.
00:30:48I love you.
00:30:49I love you.
00:30:50I love you.
00:31:19But I don't understand what you're going to...
00:31:23All right. No more questions.
00:31:27You know what's wrong with you?
00:31:28What?
00:31:29You've been working too hard getting ready for your concert.
00:31:31You've had a lonely life here on the island with all your musician friends.
00:31:36It's been getting you down.
00:31:38But I'll take care of all that once we're married.
00:31:40Maybe you better tell your mother that the wedding's on again.
00:31:44I never told her it was off.
00:31:46You're pretty sure of yourself, aren't you?
00:31:48You know, the first thing you're going to do is have a long vacation.
00:31:52A whole month's honeymoon in Europe.
00:31:54Uh-uh.
00:31:55You know how many hit records I'd have to sell to pay for that?
00:31:59Dad's footing the bill.
00:32:00It's his wedding present to us.
00:32:01He wanted to tell you himself, but he won't be here until right before the wedding.
00:32:05And when we get back, I'm going to have a big party.
00:32:08So I can get to know all your friends.
00:32:10Big party? We'll be living in a three-room apartment.
00:32:12Mother and Daddy won't mind if we use their house in Bel Air.
00:32:16They say now that I'm getting married, it's too big for them anyway.
00:32:18So they'll be turning it over to us for good one of these days.
00:32:21Are you trying to spoil me?
00:32:23There's nothing I'd like better.
00:32:27Come on up to the house a minute. I want you to see something.
00:32:30What?
00:32:30My wedding gown.
00:32:31Isn't that supposed to be bad luck?
00:32:33You're not superstitious about things like that, are you?
00:32:37No.
00:32:38I'm not superstitious.
00:32:47My garden's full of roses this month.
00:32:50And it seemed about time to bring you some fresh ones, so...
00:32:53Hi.
00:32:53Hello.
00:32:54Well, hello, stranger.
00:32:56Hi, Kitty.
00:32:56Where have you been keeping yourself, lady?
00:32:58Some beautiful gifts have arrived and you haven't seen any of them.
00:33:01Hey, look at this.
00:33:02But you're a dear anyway.
00:33:04Champagne.
00:33:05Fix your drink.
00:33:06Mmm.
00:33:09Look.
00:33:11Another one.
00:33:12Uh-oh.
00:33:13There's my girl.
00:33:16Hi, pal.
00:33:17Hi.
00:33:18Is everything made up with you and Meg?
00:33:20Well, I'm working on it.
00:33:25Hi, Miss Ellis.
00:33:26Tom.
00:33:28Another pair.
00:33:30People must think newlyweds live on lettuce by candlelight.
00:33:33This makes nine pairs of candlesticks and twelve salad bowls.
00:33:36And more coming every time the mail boat arrives.
00:33:38Meg got her wedding gown today.
00:33:40And Tom, it's simply a dream.
00:33:42What a bride goes through to make herself attractive for you men.
00:33:46It took three fittings to get the bodice right.
00:33:49And three layers of net to make the skirt full enough.
00:33:52Well, hardly seems worth it.
00:33:54After all, I'm only marrying her, so you'll be my mother-in-law.
00:33:58Sandy, see if there's a window open.
00:34:00There's a cold draft all of a sudden.
00:34:18What's that sweet smell?
00:34:20Must be the fresh roses.
00:34:24My roses never smelled like that.
00:34:27It's a woman's perfume.
00:34:30Help me make room for these, dear.
00:34:32In my day, it wasn't candlesticks.
00:34:34It was teaspoons.
00:34:35Mr. Hubbard and I received no less than 78 of them when we were married.
00:34:39Maybe that's a reason for his attitude.
00:34:41When he went back to the mainland,
00:34:42he was only saying he was going to go right to the office
00:34:43and stay there until the wedding.
00:34:46I'm sure you'll never treat your wife like that, will you, Tom?
00:34:49Oh, will you?
00:34:50He isn't here, Mother.
00:34:52Where is he?
00:34:53I think Meg took him to look at her dress.
00:35:02My wedding dress!
00:35:05What is it?
00:35:06What did she find?
00:35:09Seaweed.
00:35:17Tom?
00:35:19Yes, Mrs. Ellis.
00:35:20I'm in here.
00:35:24I brought you some honey.
00:35:26Don't get up.
00:35:27I'll just put it on the bar here.
00:35:30Thank you, Mrs. Ellis.
00:35:34I really brought the honey only as an excuse
00:35:36because I knew you were upset.
00:35:39Tom,
00:35:40there's nothing supernatural about what happened to Meg's dress.
00:35:43There must be a logical explanation.
00:35:46I know, I know.
00:35:48But that seaweed,
00:35:49it's just like that Samuel's boy.
00:35:52There have been no recent deaths, Tom.
00:35:55No.
00:35:57Anyway, I'm sure of one thing.
00:35:59I've had enough of her.
00:36:01Who are you talking about?
00:36:03Oh, a...
00:36:04a friend I used to have,
00:36:06a girl named Vi.
00:36:08She came over here to the island to see me.
00:36:11We...
00:36:12well, we quarreled
00:36:13up in the lighthouse.
00:36:16Well, at any rate,
00:36:17she went back to the mainland.
00:36:19Are you sure that's what happened?
00:36:21What do you mean?
00:36:22Am I sure?
00:36:23Well, maybe she didn't go back to the mainland.
00:36:26Maybe this girl Vi is still here
00:36:27and is playing tricks to get even.
00:36:29where do you suppose
00:36:31a woman could hide on this island?
00:36:32Who's hiding?
00:36:35Never mind, Sandy.
00:36:39Things will work out.
00:36:40You'll see.
00:37:09Miss Zellis!
00:37:10Miss Zellis!
00:37:15Why are people always saying,
00:37:17never mind?
00:37:18Because there are some things
00:37:20that grown-ups don't want children
00:37:21to know about, Sandy.
00:37:23Those are always the most interesting things.
00:37:26Who is Tom looking for?
00:37:29Never mind.
00:37:31Betty's looking for it at the lighthouse.
00:37:33He's always hanging around there.
00:37:35The lighthouse is a very dangerous place, Sandy.
00:37:39It'll soon be torn down.
00:37:42That doesn't keep people from going there.
00:37:44But you mustn't go there, Sandy.
00:37:46Not ever.
00:37:48Run along home now.
00:37:50Come on, Fritz.
00:38:01What's the matter, Fritz?
00:38:06I'm surprised at you.
00:38:09You're being as silly as Tom.
00:38:15All right, I'll go alone.
00:38:24Young lady.
00:38:26Young lady.
00:38:28Bye.
00:38:32That's a lovely perfume you're wearing.
00:38:36It's no use.
00:38:37I know you're in here somewhere.
00:38:41I can hear you, too.
00:38:43Don't you think it's ridiculous to hide?
00:38:46Come down.
00:38:47There's something I want to say to you.
00:38:50Very well.
00:38:51If you won't,
00:38:53then I'll go up and find you.
00:39:05Listen to me, please.
00:39:07I don't usually give people advice,
00:39:10but Tom is a dear friend,
00:39:12and I want to ask you to leave him alone.
00:39:15Are you listening to me?
00:39:17You might at least have the politeness to answer.
00:39:21My, that's a nasty laugh you have.
00:39:25What tricks are you up to now?
00:39:28Wait.
00:39:29Listen to me.
00:39:38You know you're worrying and frightening Tom half to death.
00:39:42It's not hard to sense how desperate he's getting.
00:39:46I know Meg doesn't concern you,
00:39:48but you wouldn't want to make an innocent person suffer, would you?
00:39:51Well, I wish you'd speak more clearly.
00:39:58You're trying to make me sorry for you, I suppose.
00:40:02But I can't help thinking how foolish you are playing this absurd game.
00:40:12I can't help you.
00:40:13Stand still and let me talk to you, please.
00:40:16You've caused those two people all the unhappiness you need to.
00:40:20It's time you stopped.
00:40:23You don't belong here, you know.
00:40:26Why don't you leave Tom and Meg alone and go back?
00:40:31What are you saying?
00:40:34What a fiend you are.
00:40:35I can't hear you.
00:40:44What a fiend you are.
00:40:48You're not fooling me.
00:40:50I know exactly what you are.
00:41:05It's not fair.
00:41:07You're getting the party, the presents, the husband.
00:41:10I get nothing.
00:41:12Be nice to me, Peanut.
00:41:14In two more days, I'll be a married woman and you'll miss me.
00:41:16I'll miss Tom more.
00:41:18Sandy.
00:41:21How's my family?
00:41:23Daddy!
00:41:24Am I too early or too late?
00:41:26I'm so happy you made it in time.
00:41:27You don't think I'd let my daughter marry without her favorite father being around now, do you?
00:41:32Well, roll up your sleeves and pitch in.
00:41:34The party's right after tomorrow's rehearsal.
00:41:36Hi, honey.
00:41:37Pray.
00:41:39Where's the groom?
00:41:40He's not feeling well.
00:41:42What's the matter with him?
00:41:43He's been overworking.
00:41:45At the piano, I suppose.
00:41:47Please don't start that again.
00:41:50It's bad enough to accept a musician into this family,
00:41:53but a jazz musician is asking too damn much.
00:41:56Why don't you go to bed, dear?
00:41:58You must be tired.
00:42:00What's the matter with a jazz musician?
00:42:02Be still, brat.
00:42:06Poor Tom.
00:42:25Tom?
00:42:27Tom?
00:42:35Tom?
00:42:37Tom?
00:42:38Tom?
00:42:39Tom?
00:43:16Do you live here, kid?
00:43:21Can't you hear or something?
00:43:22I asked if you live here.
00:43:24In the lighthouse?
00:43:25No, on the island.
00:43:28On the island!
00:43:30Why do you want to know?
00:43:31Look, kid, I really don't care.
00:43:35I'm looking for a guy called Tom Stewart.
00:43:37Do you know him?
00:43:39What do you want him for?
00:43:42He won 200,000 on a sweepstakes ticket,
00:43:45and I'm here to give him the money.
00:43:46I don't believe you.
00:43:49Look, kid, do you know where he lives?
00:44:21What are you looking for, Dad?
00:44:27Not much to see out there, huh?
00:44:30Oh, wow, this is a crazy pad.
00:44:34Aren't you lost, buddy?
00:44:35Oh, man, this sure is.
00:44:40Hey, now, wait a minute.
00:44:43What is this?
00:44:45Look, I don't want nothing from you, Dad.
00:44:46I really don't.
00:44:47She owes me a fin, that's all,
00:44:48and I thought it would be nice to have.
00:44:51What are you talking about?
00:44:52No sweat, Dad.
00:44:53I don't want nothing from you.
00:44:54She owes me a fin, that's all.
00:45:00Wow, you sure have a nice pad, Dad.
00:45:03Now, look, I don't mean to be rude,
00:45:04but you'll either have to tell me
00:45:05what you're talking about
00:45:06or get out of here.
00:45:07Look, the blonde, the one with the...
00:45:10Shows me some bread, that's all.
00:45:11There's nothing to get bugged about.
00:45:13What she does here is your business.
00:45:15I can see you dig me, Dad.
00:45:18Look, I motored this chick, Vi Mason,
00:45:20over to the island.
00:45:20I got a boat.
00:45:22Now, when she asks me if I take her,
00:45:23well, I say okay,
00:45:24but she said she doesn't have the change.
00:45:26This is what she said.
00:45:27Okay, so we make a deal.
00:45:29Five bucks over and five bucks back.
00:45:32Now, look.
00:45:34I haven't the faintest idea
00:45:35who or what you're talking about.
00:45:37Look, Dad, all I want is the bread.
00:45:39When she didn't show by morning,
00:45:40I figured I'd been had.
00:45:42And I know she didn't go back
00:45:43on the regular run
00:45:43because I asked a putt-putt jockey
00:45:45and he said no.
00:45:47Now, I'm a real square, Dad.
00:45:50I didn't remember the name of the guy she said.
00:45:55Today I remember.
00:45:55How do you like that?
00:45:58Tom Stewart.
00:46:00That's the name of the guy she said
00:46:01when we made the run.
00:46:02So, enough of this jazz, Dad.
00:46:04Come on.
00:46:07I have to leave.
00:46:08Get out.
00:46:09Well, maybe I'd better wait around
00:46:11until the chick shows.
00:46:13You'll do nothing of the...
00:46:16All right.
00:46:18Maybe it's worth it, five dollars
00:46:20just to get rid of you.
00:46:21Here.
00:46:22There you go.
00:46:26What you do is your business, Dad.
00:46:27All I want is what's coming to me.
00:46:49I'll be right with you, Mrs. Ellis.
00:46:55I'll be right with you, Mrs. Ellis.
00:47:04I'll be right with you, Mrs. Ellis.
00:47:04There you are.
00:47:06Plenty of pickles?
00:47:08Yes siree, plenty of pickles.
00:47:25How are you, Mrs. Ellis?
00:47:26Warm, Mr. Nelson. It's a very warm day.
00:47:29I think I'll have something light.
00:47:32Egg salad sandwich and a glass of iced tea with lemon.
00:47:35Don't like sugar in my tea, but plenty of lemon.
00:47:37Well, how about a nice hamburger or tuna fish salad?
00:47:42What's the matter with your eggs?
00:47:43Oh, there's nothing the matter with them. I just don't have any.
00:47:46I've been out of eggs for almost a week now.
00:47:48Cramer's hands just stopped laying.
00:47:51It's a funny thing. Nothing like this ever happened before, except once.
00:47:55About the time Samuel's boy died.
00:47:57They just up and quit laying. Would you like a tuna fish salad?
00:48:01Just the iced tea.
00:48:03Right.
00:48:10Say, Dad, can I have a Coke?
00:48:12Right.
00:48:14The Hubbard's had to send over to the mainland special to get some eggs for their party.
00:48:18Can't bake a cake without eggs.
00:48:21Speaking of the wedding, are you still there, Sandy?
00:48:24Yes, ma'am.
00:48:26Shouldn't you be at the rehearsal?
00:48:27Holy cow!
00:48:29Charge it, Mr. Nelson!
00:48:31You know, Mr. Nelson, I wish I could have my sight back.
00:48:35Long enough to see Tom and Meg married.
00:48:38They must be a lovely couple.
00:48:40I'd give anything to see them.
00:48:43They're handsome couple, all right.
00:48:45Tom Stewart's marrying a beautiful gal.
00:48:48They're the nicest of families, too.
00:48:51Say, Dad,
00:48:52what did you say the handle of the guy getting spliced was?
00:48:55Tom Stewart.
00:48:56The girl's name is Meg Hubbard.
00:49:05And little Sandy will be standing here to my right, next to the bride.
00:49:09And then the groom, of course, to her right, and you'll be standing here.
00:49:12The parents will be in their pews and...
00:49:16May I help you?
00:49:17Yeah, I want to speak to Tom Stewart.
00:49:23Excuse me.
00:49:36You're interrupting a wedding rehearsal in there.
00:49:38Like I said, Dad, what you do is your business.
00:49:40I mean, it's crazy with me if you want to marry one chick and keep another one inside for kicks.
00:49:44Wow.
00:49:45But I feel sort of a responsibility,
00:49:47seeing as how I brought your broad over on my tug.
00:49:50See what I mean?
00:49:50What are you driving at?
00:49:51Come on, Dad, don't you know?
00:49:53I gave you the money you're after.
00:49:55What more do you want?
00:49:56Well, it seems that our deal is in life for some renegotiation.
00:50:00Tom, hurry!
00:50:01We're waiting for you.
00:50:02Yeah, go ahead back.
00:50:03We'll pick it up later.
00:50:05Time, I got plenty of.
00:50:09Now...
00:50:39Tomorrow night, I'll be Mrs. Stewart.
00:50:41Isn't that right, Mr. Stewart?
00:50:45I'll be right back.
00:50:57Oh, please, Tom.
00:50:58Just one more.
00:50:59Oh, I, uh...
00:51:01I wanted to get a drink.
00:51:02Yeah, I'll get it for you.
00:51:03Just one more number.
00:51:04I want to show you off.
00:51:19Oh, my love.
00:51:35Sorry I started you, Tom, but candidates are the best kind.
00:51:39I had my mouth open and my eyes closed.
00:51:41This is going to be the worst picture ever made.
00:51:43If you don't like it, I can take another.
00:51:48No.
00:51:52No, this is fine.
00:51:54Are you sure?
00:51:55Yeah, I'm sure.
00:51:56Here, let me look.
00:51:57No.
00:51:59Get a drink.
00:52:12Tom, what's wrong with it?
00:52:14Nothing.
00:52:15It's only a picture.
00:52:16Why are you so upset?
00:52:18I'm not upset.
00:52:19Well, something's bothering you.
00:52:23Is it another girl?
00:52:26You can tell me.
00:52:27I'll try not to be jealous.
00:52:29Jealous?
00:52:31Who could be jealous of Vi?
00:52:33She's dead.
00:52:34She doesn't exist.
00:52:35She's a perfume.
00:52:37She's a footprint.
00:52:38She's a hand.
00:52:39She's a face in a picture.
00:52:42Who could be jealous of Vi?
00:52:43You're talking crazy, Tom.
00:52:46Let me see the picture.
00:52:47No.
00:52:50You're not making any sense.
00:52:58It's her face between the two of us.
00:53:03I don't see anything.
00:53:06Except you and me.
00:53:29Did you put out the lights?
00:53:32What's the matter?
00:53:34You don't look too happy.
00:53:37You ought to be.
00:53:39You're getting married tomorrow.
00:53:41I sometimes wonder the way Tom's been acting lately.
00:53:45Anything Tom does is all right.
00:53:48He's perfect in your eyes anyhow, isn't he?
00:53:51Oh, don't worry, Sandy.
00:53:54I love him.
00:53:55I suppose every girl has a few last-minute doubts.
00:54:00Because he's always around the lighthouse?
00:54:02Because he imagines things that aren't so.
00:54:06Everything will be all right.
00:54:08It's late.
00:54:13I'll get the window.
00:54:18There's a light up there.
00:54:21I wonder who it could be.
00:54:23A boy and a girl, probably.
00:54:24You wouldn't understand.
00:54:25I would, too.
00:54:26They used to go there to Nick.
00:54:29Not anymore.
00:54:31Everybody says it's too cold and damp and smelly.
00:54:35Does Tom go there with anybody?
00:54:37Or does anybody meet him there?
00:54:39Now who's imagining things?
00:54:41You're right.
00:54:47Tom, you're right.
00:54:48Oh, besides, that's probably only a reflection of the moonlight on a loose pane of glass.
00:55:07Tom, Tom, Tom, Tom, Tom, Tom, Tom, Tom.
00:55:21Tom, Tom, Tom, Tom, Tom, Tom, Tom.
00:55:27Where are you?
00:55:29I'm over here.
00:55:42Bye, where?
00:55:54What do you want?
00:55:58I want you, Tom.
00:55:59I want to save you from your own mistakes.
00:56:02My only mistake was in knowing you.
00:56:05And the only way you could correct it was for me to die, wasn't it?
00:56:09It's not my fault you're dead.
00:56:12Isn't it?
00:56:13I couldn't have saved you.
00:56:14Couldn't you?
00:56:16Maybe you can make yourself believe that, but not me.
00:56:19I was there, remember?
00:56:21You had to shut me up so you could marry Meg.
00:56:24You got away with that, all right, but now what are you gonna do?
00:56:29I'll never let you marry Meg.
00:56:31You belong to me, Tom.
00:56:34You belong to a ghost.
00:56:36That's the trouble with making one first slip.
00:56:40You have to go from bad to worse to keep it quiet.
00:56:43What would you do if Meg gets wise to you?
00:56:46Stop her the same way you stopped me?
00:56:48I didn't kill you, Vi.
00:56:51I never killed anybody and I never will.
00:56:54And once I'm married, I'm going to live a very happy, very normal life with Meg and with our friends.
00:57:00And there's really nothing you can do about it.
00:57:03Isn't there?
00:57:04You may have noticed I've found my voice now.
00:57:07I pick things up fast.
00:57:09I'm going to use it to tell the world about you.
00:57:12I told you, Tom, no one will ever have you but me.
00:57:15Stop it, Vi.
00:57:16Try and make me.
00:57:18Tom Stewart killed me!
00:57:20Tom Stewart killed me!
00:57:24Tom Stewart killed me!
00:57:27Tom Stewart killed me!
00:57:58Don't be in such a hurry, Dad.
00:58:00You're always in a hurry. You shouldn't be like that.
00:58:02Give me that.
00:58:02I just want to talk to each other. Nice, friendly talk. That's all.
00:58:05Give me that.
00:58:14You look sick, Dad. Something's wrong.
00:58:17Look, are you going to talk to me or not?
00:58:20Let's get this thing over with.
00:58:25Just what is it you want?
00:58:27Like I said, Dad, all I want is what's coming to me.
00:58:29You know, the way it looks to me, we should be sort of partners.
00:58:32I help you, and you help me.
00:58:34I bring your playgirl over to the island,
00:58:36and I figure it's worth some sort of service to you to sort of buy something from me.
00:58:40Like a silent service, catch?
00:58:42The word you're reaching for is blackmail.
00:58:45That's not it at all, Dad. We should be sort of pals.
00:58:47I've done you a favor, now you can do me one.
00:58:49In other words, if I don't pay you blackmail,
00:58:51you go to my fiancé and expose my life of sin. Is that it?
00:58:56Well, you're saying it rather crude, Dad, but you're getting the idea.
00:58:59But it won't do you any good.
00:59:01I'm not going to pay you one lousy cent.
00:59:03In the first place, I don't know a girl named Vi.
00:59:05And even if I did, it wouldn't do you any good.
00:59:07Because unfortunately, I'm not sharing my cottage with anyone.
00:59:11If it would make you feel better, you can look for yourself.
00:59:12That's not necessary, Dad. Not at all.
00:59:14You see, I already have.
00:59:16Well, then you know she's not here.
00:59:17Well, yes and no.
00:59:19You see, when you were so eager to come up with that five spot,
00:59:22I figured you were, well, anxious to keep everything sort of quiet-like.
00:59:26Now, when I find out you're getting spliced with another chick,
00:59:28well, the story's even getting better to read.
00:59:30Now, here comes the part I like the best.
00:59:33I do a little snooping when you're not around.
00:59:36Now, what do you think?
00:59:37I...
00:59:39You still with me, Dad?
00:59:41Go on.
00:59:42You see, that's the punchline.
00:59:44That's the gimmick.
00:59:45If this doll Vi isn't hiding in your cottage,
00:59:47and she isn't any place else on the island,
00:59:49and she never left the island.
00:59:50Now, what do you suppose could have happened to her, huh?
00:59:53You tell me.
00:59:55Haha, you're a comedian.
00:59:57Uh-uh.
00:59:58You're the one that has the rest of the answers.
01:00:02You know something?
01:00:03Everything you've just said is all bluff.
01:00:06You don't know a damn thing.
01:00:08That's not friendly, Dad.
01:00:09Not friendly at all.
01:00:10In fact, I thought you'd take a wrong outlook on things,
01:00:12so I...
01:00:13sort of...
01:00:14borrowed something.
01:00:17I'm a friend of yours.
01:00:26Let's get out of here.
01:00:28I can see that you finally dig me, Dad.
01:00:49What did we come up here for?
01:00:52So that you and I can have a little talk,
01:00:54in peace and quiet.
01:00:55It's cold.
01:00:57Just what do you want?
01:01:01Five thou.
01:01:05Five thou?
01:01:06And don't tell me you're no gut.
01:01:08Your future father-in-law is loaded.
01:01:11Tom.
01:01:12Tom.
01:01:14Bye.
01:01:15Who are you talking to?
01:01:18You...
01:01:19You didn't hear anything?
01:01:21I didn't hear anything.
01:01:22I'm waiting to hear something from you.
01:01:25They're closing in on you, Tom.
01:01:27You'd better take care of him right now.
01:01:31No.
01:01:33Is that your final answer?
01:01:35Well, I didn't...
01:01:38Give me a minute.
01:01:40He's so easy, Tom.
01:01:42Just as easy as I was.
01:01:45Go ahead.
01:01:46There's a piece of pipe behind you.
01:01:48One good blow is all it takes.
01:01:51You got rid of me,
01:01:52but you'll never get rid of him as long as he lives.
01:01:55He'll bleed you of every penny, Tom.
01:01:58And all the time you'll have it hanging over you.
01:02:00What if people find out?
01:02:03What if Meg finds out?
01:02:05You can't let him do it, Tom.
01:02:06You'll lose everything.
01:02:11Look, you've had enough time.
01:02:14Do I get the money or don't I?
01:02:17Yes, Tom.
01:02:18Does he get paid?
01:02:20No.
01:02:23All right.
01:02:25You know what's best.
01:02:28I'll see what your chick has to say about this.
01:02:33Hit him, Tom.
01:02:35Wait.
01:02:37Did you change your mind?
01:02:38Hit him, Tom.
01:02:41No.
01:02:44Hit him!
01:03:10Hit him, Tom,
01:03:13He got him!
01:03:19Hit him!
01:03:30Hit him!
01:03:31He's a good man!
01:03:31Hit him!
01:03:34If he's at my feet,
01:03:56Sandy.
01:03:58Sandy, come here.
01:04:01Sandy, did you hear your mother call you?
01:04:04What is it?
01:04:05Drop whatever you're doing and come here at one.
01:04:10All right.
01:04:23Oh, Sandy, we have to be at the church in 20 minutes,
01:04:26and you're not even dressed yet.
01:04:27Never mind that now. Meg snagged her hymn.
01:04:29Come and hold it while I tack it up.
01:04:32You'll make a lovely wife, Meg.
01:04:34Oh, thanks.
01:04:36Mad, do you really love him a whole lot?
01:04:42Whatever makes you ask a thing like that?
01:04:45Last night you said you weren't sure.
01:04:49Well, I'm sure now.
01:04:51Oh, you'll remember to take the bouquet when I hand it to you, won't you?
01:04:55I'll remember.
01:04:59Suppose he'd done something awful bad.
01:05:03The way I feel now, I'd marry him no matter what.
01:05:07Oh, and don't forget, you stand close behind me, but not too close.
01:05:12There, that's done.
01:05:13And you, young lady, get into your gown this instant.
01:05:23This is Hubbard loaned us her ring in place of the one you lost, so that's okay.
01:05:27I've got the minister's fee here in my pocket, and everything's under control.
01:05:30Oh, so snap out of it, okay, okay, I'll be all right.
01:05:33Then get that funereal look off your face.
01:05:35This is a wedding man.
01:05:39Cheer him up, honey.
01:05:45Well, that's...
01:05:48That's a real pretty dress, Sandy.
01:05:51You're really gonna marry my sister, aren't you?
01:05:56Oh, don't feel like that.
01:05:58I can't help it.
01:06:01Suppose you love somebody.
01:06:04Somebody who did something bad.
01:06:07And only you knew.
01:06:10Would you keep it secret?
01:06:14Well, good friends generally try to stand by one another.
01:06:19But what if it were something real, real bad?
01:06:24Real, real bad like what?
01:06:26Murder?
01:06:43Dearly beloved, we are gathered together here in the sight of God, and in the peace of this company, to
01:06:51join together this man and this woman in holy matrimony, which is an honorable estate instituted of God signifying unto
01:07:03us the mystical union that is betwixt Christ and his church.
01:07:08Which holy estate Christ adorned and beautified with his presence and first miracle that he wrought in Cana of Galilee.
01:07:16And is commended to St. Paul to be honorable among all men, and therefore is not by any to be
01:07:25entered into unadvisedly or lightly, but reverently, discreetly, advisedly, soberly, and in the fear of God.
01:07:38Into this holy estate, these two persons present come now to be joined.
01:07:43If any man can show just cause why they may not lawfully be joined together, let him now speak.
01:07:50Or else, hereafter, forever, hold his peace.
01:08:20One, two, three, four, five, six, six, seven, seven, eight, eight.
01:08:35Don't forget to have to be joined alone.
01:08:36Oh, shit!
01:08:41Oh, shit.
01:08:43Oh, shit!
01:08:45Oh, shit!
01:08:52THE END
01:09:24Come on.
01:09:29Vi.
01:09:32I've come to tell you you've won.
01:09:35I'm sure you're glad to hear that.
01:09:39I'm going away, Vi, and I'm not coming back.
01:09:45Vi.
01:09:49Vi, I'm running out on Meg.
01:09:52I'm not coming back.
01:10:08Sandy, what are you doing here?
01:10:10I followed you.
01:10:13Why did you have to kill him?
01:10:21I knew something would happen.
01:10:23I was against the marriage from the beginning.
01:10:26Let me help you with your gown, dear.
01:10:29Don't bother. Mother Sandy will help me.
01:10:31Sandy, help your sister.
01:10:36Where is Sandy?
01:10:37I thought you came home ahead of us.
01:10:40Well, if she did, she's not here now.
01:10:42I wish you hadn't seen it, Sandy.
01:10:46I'm afraid you'll tell everybody, and I don't know what to do.
01:10:50I won't tell.
01:10:52But how can I be sure of that?
01:10:54Good friends protect each other.
01:10:58Yes.
01:11:00But sometimes they can't help themselves.
01:11:02Things leak out.
01:11:05The police hear about it.
01:11:06Do you know what would happen if the police heard about this?
01:11:10I'd go to the gas chamber.
01:11:15Sandy.
01:11:19Sandy, why did you have to see it?
01:11:20I couldn't help them.
01:11:23I couldn't help them.
01:11:25Nobody could help any of it except me.
01:11:29I could have saved Vi.
01:11:30I could have put my hand out to her.
01:11:33Instead, I killed her.
01:11:38Sandy.
01:11:44Sandy, you know I love you very much, don't you?
01:11:54Thank you, Reverend.
01:11:57She isn't there.
01:11:58I can't imagine where she could have gone.
01:12:00Where's Tom?
01:12:02The least he could do is be here when Meg needs him.
01:12:05Can't you leave him alone?
01:12:11There's a light in the lighthouse.
01:12:13Sandy could be there.
01:12:14She talks about the place all the time.
01:12:17Oh, I don't think she'd go there at night, though.
01:12:21We'd better make sure.
01:12:30Why are we going up there?
01:12:33Let's go up and look at the sea.
01:12:35You're not afraid of me, are you?
01:12:37I never used to be.
01:12:40Come on then.
01:12:47Let's go.
01:12:53When the moon shines, you can see the whole island from up here.
01:13:09You didn't tell anyone we were coming up here, did you?
01:13:12I didn't tell them anything.
01:13:14Good.
01:13:16Good.
01:13:16Good.
01:13:17Let's go back.
01:13:19Are you afraid?
01:13:20Yes.
01:13:22Oh, Sandy.
01:13:24Sandy, why did you have to see it?
01:13:26Tom.
01:13:28Tom.
01:13:42Tom.
01:13:43Tom.
01:13:43Come on.
01:13:44Now, get out of here.
01:13:47Come on.
01:13:49Come on.
01:13:52Come on.
01:13:57You're not going to get out of here.
01:13:59Bring him in now.
01:14:08Tom, it's a woman.
01:14:13Where did you find her?
01:14:16She's been down there a week, I'd say.
01:14:22Bring him in now.
01:14:36Tom.
01:14:46Tom.
01:14:47Tom.
01:14:59Tom.
01:15:01Tom.
01:15:06Tom.
01:15:08Tom.
01:15:10Tom.
01:15:10Tom.
01:15:11Tom.
01:15:11Tom.
01:15:11Tom.
