00:01:51Come here, honey. Come here.
00:02:01He's relaxing. He likes me.
00:02:06Me too.
00:02:23Frank?
00:02:24Patrick.
00:02:26Ah, Jan, you know how much this means to me.
00:02:28Get with it, will you, baby?
00:02:32Frank!
00:02:37Hey, Frank!
00:02:40Oh.
00:02:43No.
00:02:45Oh, Frank. Come on.
00:02:47Okay, Colonel. Okay. Lay off. Stop it. Ready for duty?
00:02:50Always ready. Yes, sir, Colonel.
00:02:52Jan, put on some coffee.
00:02:53Don't I always put a pot of coffee on the stove before I pass out?
00:02:56There's lots of coffee.
00:02:57Oh, my dear Dr. Shrat, you sober up with more grace
00:03:00than anybody I ever saw. You're terrific.
00:03:02Come on, let's go.
00:03:03Are you kidding? Look.
00:03:05Nope.
00:03:06Frank, don't let me down.
00:03:08What's more useless than a surgeon with a hangover?
00:03:10I'm a drunken zero. I pass.
00:03:11No, you don't. I'd rather have you do a corneal transplant
00:03:14for me drunk than anybody else sober.
00:03:16Let's go, boy.
00:03:17You're brilliant, but not normal.
00:03:19So are you.
00:03:20But are you?
00:03:21And who is?
00:03:23Oh.
00:03:25Great.
00:03:29Come on, boy.
00:03:30Hit the showers.
00:03:31Turn in your suit.
00:03:35Get me a long carotid this time, will you?
00:03:37Yes, indeed.
00:03:38Clean to the last teeny pour.
00:03:42Darling, Junior's falling asleep.
00:03:44Good.
00:03:44Look, he's the first who's not scared.
00:03:47It's a break for us.
00:03:48Less problem with clots.
00:03:50Pat, couldn't I keep him as a pet?
00:03:51I thought I was your pet.
00:03:53Send him on the table, honey.
00:03:54He's so young, so trusting.
00:03:57Trust me.
00:03:58Must be just a baby.
00:04:00Pat.
00:04:00The others were too old.
00:04:02Maybe that's why we failed.
00:04:03This is your fifth try.
00:04:05It seems so pointless.
00:04:06Four wasted lives.
00:04:07Monkey lives.
00:04:08And is it pointless for animals to help save human life?
00:04:11One soldier?
00:04:12One mother in an auto accident?
00:04:14One half-drowned boy?
00:04:16One baby girl?
00:04:17Feverish with freckles and a dimple?
00:04:20You're right, darling.
00:04:21I'm being silly.
00:04:23Thanks, dear.
00:04:24Now go make us one of those wonderful stews, will you?
00:04:29She is really something.
00:04:30So are you, pal.
00:04:32Okay, you're on.
00:04:33This is the day I feel it.
00:04:35Me too.
00:04:36In about 30 minutes, we'll have a monkey brain.
00:04:39Alive.
00:04:43Well, yes or no?
00:04:46Frank, the pump.
00:04:50Now the motor.
00:04:55Jan, check the oscillograph.
00:05:03The fifth and last time, I hope.
00:05:06Nothing.
00:05:07Keep watching it.
00:05:08Frank, up five microvolts.
00:05:15An alpha curve.
00:05:16Faint, but it's here.
00:05:18Up five more.
00:05:23The curve's firm and normal.
00:05:28Honey, take a look.
00:05:32Something, kids.
00:05:33A brain without a body.
00:05:35Alive.
00:05:36That's wonderful.
00:05:38It's great work, Frank.
00:05:40Congratulations.
00:05:41Terrific.
00:05:42But I'm glad it's over.
00:05:54All set, darling.
00:05:57Immediately upon removal, two electrodes fastened to cortical tissue.
00:06:01If that's for me, I'm not here.
00:06:04Hello?
00:06:06No, Dr. Shrat's not here.
00:06:08Well, I don't know about Dr. Corey.
00:06:13Oh, hold on a minute.
00:06:15Pat, it's the chief ranger.
00:06:16There's been an airplane accident.
00:06:17He thinks some of the passengers may still be alive.
00:06:19Well, why don't they get Frank?
00:06:21You'll be in town in a half an hour.
00:06:22That half hour might save a human life.
00:06:29This is Corey.
00:06:30I'll be glad to help.
00:06:31Where do I meet you?
00:06:34I'll be there as quickly as possible.
00:06:37Honey, take care of things.
00:06:39Notes of everything, huh?
00:06:40I'll watch every second.
00:06:59Okay, boys, set him down.
00:07:10Never make it to the hospital.
00:07:11What about your place, Doc?
00:07:13It's only a couple of miles.
00:07:14I don't think he has a chance,
00:07:16but it's worth a try.
00:07:17Okay.
00:07:25This way, fellas.
00:07:33Still living?
00:07:34Perfect.
00:07:35Same as when you left.
00:07:36What about the wreck?
00:07:38Three dead, one survivor.
00:07:39He's in bad shape.
00:07:43Give me a hand with this, boys.
00:07:46Put the head right over here.
00:07:48Jan, give them scissors.
00:07:50Easy now, fellas.
00:07:54And fast as you can, cut away the clothes.
00:07:58Tuttle, help with the sheet there.
00:08:00You'll find him in the side drawer.
00:08:01Better get Frank.
00:08:03He's running a temperature.
00:08:04I think he's asleep.
00:08:05Wake him up.
00:08:06Get him.
00:08:08If you pull him through, Doc,
00:08:10he should be set for life.
00:08:11How do you mean?
00:08:12That's Warren H. Donovan.
00:08:13It means nothing to me.
00:08:15Supposed to be worth a hundred million.
00:08:16The sky's the limit on your feet.
00:08:18His money can't help him now.
00:08:21All right, boys.
00:08:21Thanks very much.
00:08:22That's swell.
00:08:23You can go.
00:08:28Frank will be here in a minute.
00:08:29Honey, we'll need your help.
00:08:30Would you get the gowns and things?
00:08:32Hurry up, Frank.
00:08:33Why weren't you in your office?
00:08:34The whole wide world is my office.
00:08:36How bad is it?
00:08:37Both legs completely gone.
00:08:38His chest is crushed.
00:08:39Tuttle, you better get into the hospital.
00:08:41If we pull him through, we'll need a lot of things.
00:08:42Right.
00:08:43I'll call you as soon as I get to town.
00:08:44We'll know for sure by then.
00:08:46We'll need adrenaline.
00:08:47I'd start plasma right now.
00:08:49Frank, you take care of the chest.
00:08:50I'll do the legs.
00:08:51I'll do the legs.
00:08:54Clamp.
00:08:59Uh-oh.
00:09:01What's the pulse?
00:09:04None.
00:09:05I think he's gone.
00:09:07Adrenaline.
00:09:09Let Frank do it.
00:09:11Right into the heart.
00:09:17Not a flicker.
00:09:19Try massage.
00:09:27Still nothing.
00:09:30Any idea who the poor man was?
00:09:33Some millionaire named Donovan Tuttle said.
00:09:38Absolutely nothing.
00:09:41Any ideas?
00:09:47I wouldn't have wasted this much time.
00:09:51All right, that's that.
00:09:56Thanks for covering for me, Pat.
00:09:58Tuttle hates my guts.
00:10:00He'd love to see his brother in my job.
00:10:02If you go on back to bed, I'll tell him you were sick.
00:10:05Make out the death certificate first, though.
00:10:07That's not my department.
00:10:10Why don't I park Mr. Donovan in the garage?
00:10:13All right, thanks.
00:10:18Wait a minute.
00:10:19Hold everything.
00:10:21Watch the current.
00:10:22Mr. Frank, Jan, give us readings.
00:10:28What's the big idea?
00:10:29Curious, that's all.
00:10:36What about it, Jan?
00:10:39There must be something wrong.
00:10:41They're indications of alpha waves.
00:10:43Not too unusual.
00:10:44In violent death, like the plane crash,
00:10:46organs of the body died different times.
00:10:48And his brain's still alive.
00:10:49You're right.
00:10:50The waves aren't weakening at all.
00:10:52Come on, Frank.
00:10:52I think we have time enough.
00:10:54Time for what?
00:10:55Donovan's dead, isn't he?
00:10:56Beyond all help?
00:10:57So?
00:10:58Science can use Donovan's brain.
00:11:00Hurry, or we'll never make it.
00:11:01You're crazy.
00:11:02Count me out.
00:11:03It's against the law to operate on a corpse.
00:11:05It could mean jail.
00:11:05And for what?
00:11:06What do you hope to prove?
00:11:07There's no time to talk now.
00:11:08Either help me or leave me on my own.
00:11:10Please, darling, don't do it.
00:11:11Believe in me, will you, baby?
00:11:12Get the instruments out of the sterilizer quickly.
00:11:14The bottom tray.
00:11:15You're wackier, sober than I ever was, Crocked.
00:11:18What an idea, stealing a man's brain.
00:11:35Second success of the day.
00:11:37To Patrick Corey, doctor of science who plays Miracle Man on the side.
00:11:44Now will you tell us why?
00:11:45Jan, please.
00:11:46Fortieth minute.
00:11:47Tissue regains color.
00:11:48Complete recovery from surgical shock.
00:11:50It's simple, Frank.
00:11:51We have blood banks, bone banks, eye banks, corneal transplants from dead to living.
00:11:55Jan, arteries resuming preoperative state at the time.
00:11:59So what?
00:11:59Preservation of tissues.
00:12:00Nothing new.
00:12:01Why risk a jail sentence for that?
00:12:02If this brain lives, maybe we can discover how it thinks.
00:12:06Impossible.
00:12:07It can't see, it can't hear, and it can't feel.
00:12:10That's correct.
00:12:10The brain itself can't.
00:12:11That's why this one feels no pain, even though still alive.
00:12:14But this brain contains all the knowledge and experience of Warren Donovan's entire life.
00:12:19In other words, all his thoughts.
00:12:20The impulses of these thoughts, then, must still be alive.
00:12:23You're just guessing, aren't you?
00:12:24Am I?
00:12:25What do you think is registering on the oscillograph?
00:12:28I'm a doctor, not an electrician.
00:12:30For all I know, that thing would move even without the brain.
00:12:32Let's see.
00:12:33Fluid level has dropped two millimeters.
00:12:35Do you suppose it could be absorbing nourishment?
00:12:38Promise me something, will you, pal?
00:12:39If anyone ever asks any questions about this, you don't even know my name.
00:12:43I promise.
00:12:45Well, see ya.
00:12:46Where are you going?
00:12:47Still 11 bottles left in that case.
00:12:49I wanted to take them home with you.
00:12:51Good idea.
00:12:52I'm supposed to be home on duty.
00:12:56Darling, what about the stew?
00:12:57Oh, right now.
00:12:58Put in here, please.
00:13:00I'm not budging an inch as long as Mr. Donovan's brain is still alive.
00:13:1572nd hour.
00:13:16Third day.
00:13:17Current increase, two microvolts.
00:13:21Please take it off the hook.
00:13:25Well, let's face it, darling.
00:13:27If you don't go to town, Higgins is going to come out here.
00:13:29Do you want that?
00:13:30I told you I'd see him, honey, but not now.
00:13:32Please don't stop.
00:13:36Now, if that's Higgins, keep him in the living room.
00:13:38I'll come out.
00:13:39All right, but I'm worried.
00:13:40Frank said there was talk of an autopsy.
00:13:42How are you going to explain the stitches in his head?
00:13:44I'll explain them.
00:13:45Here are your chemicals.
00:13:46Now, will you forget that thing and come on back to town with me?
00:13:48Are they performing an autopsy?
00:13:50No autopsy yet.
00:13:51It's just that this Donovan was a very important man.
00:13:53The CIA is investigating the crash.
00:13:55But the main thing is, Higgins and Webster are after my neck.
00:13:58Now, will you come on back with me and get me off the spot?
00:14:01Okay, pal.
00:14:01Anything you say.
00:14:02Just give me a few minutes to shave.
00:14:03Take over, will you, dear?
00:14:04Darling.
00:14:05Hmm?
00:14:06Wear a tie, huh?
00:14:18If anyone thinks I was guilty of negligence, why not perform an autopsy?
00:14:21We considered that, but Mr. Donovan's family decided it wasn't necessary.
00:14:26Ah, Tuttle.
00:14:29Tuttle, didn't you tell them we did everything we could?
00:14:31There's no dispute about that.
00:14:33Then why am I here?
00:14:34Principally with regard to Dr. Shrett.
00:14:36Now, would you say, would you say Dr. Shrett was or was not in condition to perform his duties?
00:14:42Dr. Shrett was in perfect condition to perform his duties, and he did.
00:14:47I tried to reach him.
00:14:48He wasn't at his office.
00:14:49Dr. Corridge, he smelled like a bar room.
00:14:51And Mike at the liquor store says he bought a case of that Russian stuff he lives on.
00:14:54Caviar?
00:14:57Tuttle, you're a fine ranger.
00:14:58Why don't you mind your own business?
00:15:01Mr. Webster, take my word for it, you couldn't have a more capable person in your employ than Dr. Shrett.
00:15:06Anything else, gentlemen?
00:15:08Nothing more for me.
00:15:09Mr. Donovan's son and daughter are waiting to meet you.
00:15:12Of course.
00:15:13I'll buy you a drink sometime, ranger.
00:15:17What's your version, doc?
00:15:19Did you know Donovan before?
00:15:20I asked you men to cooperate.
00:15:21I'll be back in a minute, fellas.
00:15:23Please get me on the way out.
00:15:24Thanks a lot.
00:15:29Mrs. Barton, Mr. Donovan, Dr. Corey.
00:15:32Hello, doctor.
00:15:33How do you do, Dr. Corey?
00:15:34I'm very sorry about your father.
00:15:36Well, thank you, doctor.
00:15:37My sister and I have been assured everything possible was done.
00:15:39Believe me, it was.
00:15:41Did Dad say anything before he died?
00:15:45No, he was unconscious when we got to the wreck, and he stayed that way.
00:15:49I'd say he passed on very peacefully.
00:15:51No pain.
00:15:52We wondered if any papers fell out of his pockets.
00:15:55Not that I know of.
00:15:57Are you certain?
00:15:59You notice anything?
00:16:00No.
00:16:01As I told you before, Dr. Corey and I were concerned only with what we had to do.
00:16:05We understand.
00:16:05We're grateful to you both.
00:16:07If there's ever anything we can do to show our appreciation, please call on us anytime.
00:16:11By all means do.
00:16:12Thank you, I will.
00:16:14Good luck to you both.
00:16:19Fellas, I can't add a thing to what you already know.
00:16:21What about the rumor that Tuttle's brother will replace Dr. Shratt?
00:16:24Quote, nobody could be better in his job than Dr. Frank Shratt, unquote.
00:16:29That's all, boys.
00:16:30Would you excuse me now?
00:16:31Sure, Doc.
00:16:32So far, so good.
00:16:36Hiya, Doc.
00:16:36My name's Yoakum, Herbie Yoakum.
00:16:38I freelance for a living with my little brownie here.
00:16:40Came upon my own on spec to do a picture story of Donovan's death.
00:16:43Look, where do I fit in?
00:16:45He died at your house, didn't he?
00:16:46Look, Doc, I'd like to get a shot at the operating table where he kicked off.
00:16:50That's a little gruesome, isn't it?
00:16:52Delicious.
00:16:53The Sunday supplements eat this stuff up.
00:16:55I got some shots of Donovan in the morgue.
00:16:57What happened to his head?
00:16:58It was a plane crash, remember?
00:17:00He had extensive injuries.
00:17:02Oh, come on, Doc.
00:17:03Give me a break.
00:17:04If you do, I'll take some shots of your kids.
00:17:07All right, Yoakum, do you want to follow me in your car?
00:17:09Are you kidding?
00:17:10The finance company took it four payments back.
00:17:12Doc, you're my chauffeur.
00:17:19I just added five cc's of serum, and there was a small deviation.
00:17:21We'll talk about it later.
00:17:23Hey, good-looking lab you got here, Doc.
00:17:26Oh, a heart, huh?
00:17:29Hey, a brain.
00:17:30All right, Yoakum, this is where Donovan died.
00:17:32Take your picture from over there, please.
00:17:34Yeah, sure, Doc.
00:17:36Yeah, and include us out.
00:17:43Got it?
00:17:44One more, just in case.
00:17:46Hey, how about doing a story on your stuff, Doc?
00:17:48You know, it might be worth a couple hundred dollars.
00:17:51And I'll split with you.
00:17:52No, thanks.
00:17:53What do you think you're doing?
00:17:55Oh, Doc, you're rushing me.
00:17:57That one slipped.
00:17:58You know, I just lost six cents.
00:17:59That's what these bulbs cost me wholesale.
00:18:01This one ought to do it.
00:18:08All right, take him back to town, will you please, Frank?
00:18:10Well, thanks, Doc.
00:18:11And if you're ever in Hollywood and need a favor, look me up.
00:18:13Yoakum, Y-O-C-U-M, the only one in the phone book.
00:18:16Bye.
00:18:22How did you ever happen to allow a thing like that?
00:18:25Oh, he wanted some pictures of where Donovan died.
00:18:27He'd already taken pictures in the morgue, and I was afraid he'd get suspicious if I didn't let him come
00:18:31here.
00:18:31What were you saying now when we came in about a deviation?
00:18:34Well, it was at 440.
00:18:35I was checking the voltage.
00:18:37Here comes another one.
00:18:40Just like the 440 one?
00:18:41Yes.
00:18:42Huh.
00:18:43Two identical deviations.
00:18:45Looks like a beta frequency.
00:18:46Oh, it is.
00:18:47The brain must be thinking systematically.
00:18:50Darling, you watch the screen.
00:18:51I want to try something.
00:19:03It's another deviation.
00:19:05A bigger one.
00:19:08Jan.
00:19:11I feel we're about to stumble onto something very important.
00:19:15For instance?
00:19:16Well, I don't know for sure, but we know the brain reacts and reacts differently.
00:19:21The next step is to find out what these reactions mean.
00:19:23Specifically, which cells are responsible for thoughts, emotions, actions.
00:19:27All right, but where do we go from there?
00:19:30Now you're asking me too much too soon.
00:19:32These answers may take years.
00:19:35By the way, how's your patience?
00:19:37What do you think?
00:19:39I think someday you'll be as famous as Madame Eve Curie.
00:19:42Well, if I'm as useful to you as she was to her husband, I'll settle for that.
00:19:46You're just as useful.
00:19:48And lots prettier.
00:19:54Oh, Pat, please go take a nap.
00:19:57Now, now, dear.
00:19:58You do the sleeping for both of us.
00:20:00Let me have the notes, please.
00:20:09Seventh day.
00:20:11Brain's absorption of nourishment increasing approximately one cc per hour.
00:20:15Growth and pulsations visible to naked eye.
00:20:19These impulses, they must mean something.
00:20:22They must.
00:20:24More notes?
00:20:26No, not now, dear.
00:20:29Pat, I'm worried about Frank.
00:20:31Why?
00:20:32He'll show up when he runs out of money.
00:20:34Don't you feel a little guilty?
00:20:36If he hadn't been here helping you, he'd have been home on duty when Tuttle called.
00:20:39Wouldn't have lost his job.
00:20:40Jan, when a teetotaler takes after a drunk, the drunk doesn't have a chance.
00:20:45Tuttle's been after Frank for a year now.
00:20:47Sometimes I think you're a bad influence.
00:20:50Why don't you discourage Frank from drinking?
00:20:53Oh, perhaps I'll cure Frank and every other alcoholic if I can solve the mystery of Donovan's brain.
00:21:00I think it's a matter of chemistry, how the brain thinks.
00:21:03The problem is to find out what chemical combinations are responsible for success, failure, happiness, misery.
00:21:09Sounds impossible.
00:21:10But it isn't.
00:21:11It can't be.
00:21:12There has to be a way.
00:21:15Pat, I wish you'd eat and get a good night's sleep.
00:21:18Oh, there must be some way.
00:21:19Now, this oscillograph has shown us all kinds of reactions, but what do they mean?
00:21:23Honey, you really interested in reactions?
00:21:27Are you kidding?
00:21:28Of course.
00:21:30Well, what about mine?
00:21:31It looks like we're going to spend the rest of our lives here in this room.
00:21:35All right.
00:21:35I don't miss the fresh air and my cooking smells like carbolic acid,
00:21:39but there's no place in here for you to warm my cold feet on these long winter nights.
00:21:53I guess if we had about a hundred mirrors, we could watch the brain from every room in the house,
00:21:57couldn't we?
00:21:57If you think it'll work, I'll buy them.
00:22:00Something else will work.
00:22:01What?
00:22:02We'll give the brain a voice and we can hear it from anywhere.
00:22:04Now, who's kidding?
00:22:05No, no, no.
00:22:06Honest, I'll show you.
00:22:07Look, go get the portable radio, will you?
00:22:19See, beautiful, the same electrical impulses which move the oscillograph can be turned into sound waves.
00:22:25This thing lets us see the brain think, the amplifier and loudspeaker let us hear.
00:22:30I only knew what I was thinking.
00:22:32Sounds spooky.
00:22:34Now, when did we get superstitious?
00:22:36I'm not really.
00:22:38I'm just a little upset.
00:22:39What about?
00:22:40Well, now that that thing works, can we go in the other room and sit in front of the fire?
00:22:44Sure, dear.
00:22:46That's what it's for.
00:22:53Welcome home, Dr. Shrett.
00:22:55Well, it's about time you showed up.
00:22:57Can I live in your breakfast nook?
00:22:58It's been made up for days.
00:23:00How's the mastermind doing with a stolen brain?
00:23:03Take a shower, will you?
00:23:07What's that noise?
00:23:08Mr. Donovan, thinking out loud.
00:23:10Oh, very funny.
00:23:12And you look like you could use a shower and a shave and some sleep.
00:23:15Thank you, Frank.
00:23:16Pat's letting himself run down like a broken clock.
00:23:18He won't listen to me.
00:23:19Look, pal, I've got an idea.
00:23:21The answer to everything you want to know.
00:23:23You come along fishing with me for three days and I'll solve all your problems for you.
00:23:27All right, wise guy.
00:23:28Let's have it now.
00:23:30What you need is a nice, big crystal ball.
00:23:34Hmm.
00:23:37If you didn't have a beard, I'd kiss you for that.
00:23:40For what?
00:23:41Crystal ball.
00:23:42That's it.
00:23:43The next step.
00:23:44Clairvoyance.
00:23:44Telepathy.
00:23:45You remember the experiments at Duke University?
00:23:47One brain transmitting thoughts, the other receiving them?
00:23:52Well, don't you get it?
00:23:53Donovan's brain is sending out thoughts.
00:23:54All I have to do is use my brain to receive them.
00:23:57Oh, naturally.
00:23:58Very simple.
00:24:00Darling, will you do something for me?
00:24:01Will you go into town and get back issues of magazines and newspapers?
00:24:04I want every article that has anything to do with Donovan.
00:24:07Every possible detail of his life, will you, baby?
00:24:09Please.
00:24:10Hey, you sober enough, will you, driver?
00:24:11I'm beat.
00:24:12I'm going to take that shower you sold me on and sleep.
00:24:14I'm tired of this space patrol junk.
00:24:16All right, all right, darling.
00:24:17Will you please?
00:24:19Maybe there's something on the last issue of news week.
00:24:25Despite his millions, Donovan was notoriously antagonistic toward organized charity.
00:24:31His huge...
00:24:31Hey, you read that one before.
00:24:32Oh.
00:24:33How about this?
00:24:35The government case against Donovan for income tax evasion has been an illegal snarl for years.
00:24:40Donovan carried to an extreme the independence of the self-made man.
00:24:44What belonged to him, he thought, was his and his alone.
00:24:47He scorned taxes, fucked the payment of every penny.
00:24:50Treasury Department experts refused comment on how the fact that Donovan left no will will affect the status of their
00:24:57case.
00:25:00Jan, read that one again that gives his description.
00:25:05Donovan's strength was in his lined, granite-like face and piercing eyes.
00:25:09Nephritis had left him in poor physical state.
00:25:12He must have been in constant pain because he generally walked with a limp, his right hand soothing his aching
00:25:18kidney.
00:25:19A lot of walking he did with four Cadillacs.
00:25:21I can just see him now, hobbling from the mansion to his car, chewing on a $2 cigar and blowing
00:25:27smoke rings worth a nickel apiece.
00:25:31Well, thanks for everything, kid.
00:25:33Night, darling.
00:25:33Night.
00:25:34Frank.
00:25:34I'm going to catch you some nice fresh trout for breakfast.
00:25:36Want to come along?
00:25:37No, thanks.
00:25:38Somebody around here ought to get some sleep.
00:25:39See you in the morning.
00:25:41Hey, if you happen to get a message from an old lady with white hair, that's my great-aunt Marta.
00:25:46Say I'm out.
00:25:47Say I'm out.
00:26:17Say I'm out.
00:26:49Say I'm out.
00:27:17Say I'm out.
00:27:32Say I'm out.
00:27:33Say I'm out.
00:27:35Say I'm out.
00:27:37Say I'm out.
00:27:38Say I'm out.
00:27:39Say I'm out.
00:27:40Say I'm out.
00:27:41Say I'm out.
00:27:42Say I'm out.
00:27:43Say I'm out.
00:27:44Say I'm out.
00:27:45Say I'm out.
00:27:47Say I'm out.
00:27:56Oh, my God.
00:28:33Hey! Anybody up? Look.
00:28:35Three nights in a row he hasn't been to bed.
00:28:40She should have married a mattress tester.
00:28:46Pat? Pat?
00:28:49Now, this is silly. Why didn't you come to bed?
00:28:52What happened?
00:28:53A remarkable occurrence, Dr. Corey. A thoroughly exhausted man fell asleep.
00:28:58Now, look. Why don't we put this on a sensible basis?
00:29:01Now that Frank's living here, we can take turns.
00:29:03And that way we won't miss a thing and we can still keep our health.
00:29:05Well, did you write this?
00:29:13No.
00:29:15Frank, is this one of your gags? Did you pull this after I fell asleep?
00:29:19No. So helped me, Pat. How could I? I was busy catching our breakfast.
00:29:34What is it, Daryl?
00:29:37Where's that picture of Donovan's signature?
00:29:39I think it's on Newsweek.
00:29:41Newsweek?
00:29:42Give us a hand, will you, Frank?
00:29:49Here it is.
00:29:54We've done it.
00:29:56Contact with Donovan's brain at last.
00:30:00I wonder who Fuller is.
00:30:09Hi, flower girl.
00:30:10You finally remembered how bright the sunshine is.
00:30:13I can't seem to make contact today, so I'm going to check around and try to find out who Fuller
00:30:17is.
00:30:18I wish you'd stay close by.
00:30:19Of course, darling. Won't miss a thing.
00:30:24Come on.
00:30:34Good work, Larry.
00:30:36Good work, friend.
00:30:46Come on.
00:30:47Come on.
00:30:49Come on.
00:31:14Why are you in the laboratory?
00:31:15I told you to watch the oscillograph until I return.
00:31:18Don't talk to me like that.
00:31:19Then do as I tell you.
00:31:20Why don't you stop fooling yourself?
00:31:22You're not kidding me.
00:31:24You don't believe that Donovan and Corey have arrived at a meeting of minds?
00:31:28Not in a million years.
00:31:30You're a blind shrat.
00:31:38Report, please.
00:31:40Constant low.
00:31:42Same as when you left.
00:31:43Come on.
00:32:04You're a blind shrat.
00:32:10I'm a blind shrat.
00:32:14That's good. Let's go in the living room, hmm?
00:32:17All right, dear.
00:32:43Pat, Frank and I had a long talk when you were out.
00:32:46Uh-oh.
00:32:48We decided that you're carrying this thing too far.
00:32:51Too far?
00:32:53Darling, this is only the beginning.
00:32:55Do you remember our conversation when you came in?
00:32:58Conversation?
00:32:59Oh, very vaguely.
00:33:01And you think that's a sign of a healthy mind?
00:33:03Look, Pat, we're both doctors.
00:33:05We understand auto-suggestion, self-hypnosis.
00:33:07Darling, don't you see?
00:33:09The limp, the tone of voice,
00:33:10you're imitating Donovan subconsciously,
00:33:13even to practicing his signature with your left hand.
00:33:16Oh, Jan, please, you don't...
00:33:17We read you every detail of Donovan's life,
00:33:20and you're so anxious to see this crazy experiment succeed.
00:33:22What do I have to do to convince you both
00:33:24this Donovan business is on the level?
00:33:27You'll never convince me.
00:33:28I expect you any day to send me out for a box of $2 cigars.
00:33:31You told us that there was an experiment,
00:33:33an investigation of human emotions, a search for happiness.
00:33:37It is. It is. It is all those things.
00:33:38But human emotions exist way deep in the mind.
00:33:42So far, I've only managed a superficial communication with the brain.
00:33:46Oh, you're off your rocker, pal.
00:33:47You're way past the brain.
00:33:49You're looking for the soul.
00:33:50You're out of your department.
00:33:52That's why I tell you you're kidding yourself.
00:33:53And if you're not, if you are on the level,
00:33:55then you're trying to play God.
00:33:57Oh, Frank.
00:33:58You know I couldn't have gotten this far without...
00:34:01God's help.
00:34:04That wins this round, chum, but you wait.
00:34:10Uh, did you measure today's increase in size?
00:34:13No, not yet.
00:34:15I'd better do it.
00:34:17I'll be back in a few minutes.
00:34:23Seems so sincere.
00:34:26The mind's a funny thing, Jan.
00:34:29This Jekyll and Hyde thing, it... it's weird.
00:34:32You want me to end it?
00:34:33How do you mean?
00:34:34You tell me when, and we'll have an accident.
00:34:37A fuse in the garage will pop, and five minutes later,
00:34:39we'll bury Donovan's brain.
00:34:41Hmm.
00:34:42Much as I'd like it, I...
00:34:44I want Pat to be the one to say when.
00:35:12A fuse in the garage will pop, and five minutes later,
00:35:15We'll bury Donovan.
00:35:23Janice, pack my suitcase, and I'll want the tape recorder.
00:35:27Where are you going?
00:35:28To the city.
00:35:30Why? For how long? When did you...
00:35:32Please don't interrupt my train of thought.
00:35:34While I'm away, increase nourishment to the brain half a pint a day.
00:35:38Frank, order a taxi, and then call the airport and charter a private plane.
00:36:34Yes, sir?
00:36:35Sweet 612. It's not occupied.
00:36:38612, it's available. For how long?
00:36:40Well, a week at least. Possibly longer.
00:36:45Dr. Corey, it's nice having you with us. Incidentally, the rate on 612 is 75 a day.
00:36:51My friend, Mr. W.H. Donovan, said the rate would be 50.
00:36:55Oh? That was for Mr. Donovan confidential, we thought.
00:37:00However...
00:37:00However, the rate will be $50. Have the boy take my bags upstairs. I'll be back later.
00:37:09Hi, Doc. Remember me?
00:37:12Hey, don't tell me you forgot Herbie Yoakam.
00:37:14Oh, hello, Yoakam.
00:37:16Just telephoned your house. Thought maybe I'd run out and pay you a visit, but the missus said you were
00:37:20checking in here.
00:37:20Call me here later this afternoon, Yoakam. I'm late for an appointment now.
00:37:25Yeah, sure.
00:37:26Sure.
00:37:30Oh, shit.
00:37:39Oh, shit.
00:37:41Oh, shit.
00:37:42I'm leaving.
00:37:43Oh.
00:37:45Oh, shit.
00:37:50Oh, shit.
00:37:52Oh, shit.
00:37:54Oh, shit.
00:38:10You'll have to see the manager, Mr. McNish.
00:38:21Mr. McNish.
00:38:22Yes?
00:38:22I was sent to you about this.
00:38:26Effie, you have identification, doctor?
00:38:29Yes, certainly.
00:38:31Effie, will you get me the signature card
00:38:32and the Roger Hines account and the ledger sheet, please?
00:38:35Yes, sir.
00:38:37Have you known Mr. Hines long, doctor?
00:38:39Does it matter?
00:38:41Well, as a matter of fact, to my knowledge,
00:38:42he's never been in the bank.
00:38:44Naturally, we're a bit curious about him.
00:38:46All his deposits and withdrawals have been made by mail.
00:38:49We all have our idiosyncrasies, Mr. McNish.
00:38:56How do you wish to have this cashed, doctor?
00:38:59Mostly thousands, some hundreds and a few fifties.
00:39:02Well, that will just about close the account.
00:39:04I wouldn't know about that.
00:39:06Do you have an office here in the city, doctor?
00:39:08No, I'm visiting at the townhouse.
00:39:10I see.
00:39:23There you are, sir.
00:39:24$27,000.
00:39:26May I have an envelope, please?
00:39:27Certainly, sir.
00:39:29And if you'd care to open an account, we'd...
00:39:30Oh, thank you, Mr. McNish.
00:39:35Good day, sir.
00:39:43Get me the treasury department.
00:39:45Bureau of Investigation, a Mr. Brooke.
00:39:48Yes.
00:39:57You have this equipment on hand?
00:40:00Yeah, I think so.
00:40:01I want immediate delivery to that address.
00:40:03If you don't have a truck, hire one.
00:40:04I don't know about that.
00:40:05I'll pay double the usual hauling rate
00:40:07with a $100 bonus for the men on the truck.
00:40:09How much do I owe you?
00:40:10I'll have to figure it out.
00:40:12Rough guess will be good enough.
00:40:14Well, I'd say, uh, with the tax,
00:40:17that it'd be pretty close to $8,000.
00:40:20Your firm will absorb the tax,
00:40:21or I'll use my professional connections
00:40:23to make the purchase wholesale, understand?
00:40:25Now, the driver, give the change to Mrs. Corey.
00:40:27$50 of that is for you.
00:40:36What can I do for you, sir?
00:40:37Sir, I was sent by W.H. Donovan.
00:40:40Do you have any blue serge with a thin pinstripe?
00:40:43Yes, sir, we certainly do.
00:40:45We had just ordered a bolt a special
00:40:46for Mr. Donovan shortly before the accident.
00:40:49I'll take half a dozen suits.
00:40:51Certainly, sir.
00:40:52I want the first one in the morning.
00:40:54That's impossible, sir.
00:40:55Not if you put one tailor on the coat,
00:40:57another on the trousers,
00:40:58and have both work all night.
00:41:00Now, let's get on with my measurements.
00:41:28Mr. Nathaniel Fuller, please.
00:41:29Mr. Fuller is in conference.
00:41:31He'll be tied up until after lunch.
00:41:32Tell him a friend of W.H. Donovan wants to see him.
00:41:35Say it's urgent.
00:41:36But...
00:41:37Go on.
00:41:42Excuse me, Mr. Fuller,
00:41:44but there's a gentleman here,
00:41:45a friend of Mr. W.H. Donovan's.
00:41:48He says it's urgent.
00:41:49Who is he?
00:41:50Dr. Patrick Corey.
00:41:52Dr. Patrick Corey.
00:41:54Corey?
00:41:56Tell him to come back some other time.
00:41:59Fuller, I have a message for you from Warren Donovan.
00:42:03You'll see me now.
00:42:04Sorry, Mr. Fuller.
00:42:07Have Mr. Corey come in.
00:42:10The first door.
00:42:18Now, Mr. Corey, what is so urgent?
00:42:20It's Dr. Corey.
00:42:22Mr. Fuller, I want you to put through a phone call
00:42:24to Mr. Donovan's Washington connection.
00:42:27Tell him to leave Washington tonight by plane.
00:42:30You and he will be in my suite,
00:42:336-12 at the townhouse,
00:42:34at 11 o'clock tomorrow morning.
00:42:37I don't know what you're talking about, Dr. Corey.
00:42:39Do you know who I am?
00:42:42Frankly, no.
00:42:43Mr. Donovan died in my home.
00:42:46Oh, that's right.
00:42:48No wonder your name sounded slightly familiar.
00:42:51However, I doubted Mr. Donovan's connection,
00:42:54as you refer to him,
00:42:56would drop his official duties
00:42:57and come out here on my say-so.
00:42:59He will when you tell him
00:43:00that certain checks endorsed by him
00:43:02are in my possession.
00:43:03He still wants them, doesn't he?
00:43:05I'll see you here, Dr. Corey.
00:43:07Yes, Mr. Fuller.
00:43:16You recognize the handwriting?
00:43:18Yes, but...
00:43:19Then follow my instructions, Mr. Fuller.
00:43:22Aren't there certain checks
00:43:23with your endorsement, too?
00:43:28See you in the morning, Mr. Fuller.
00:43:31Suite 6-12.
00:43:39Get me the long-distance operator.
00:43:41I want to make a person-to-person call to Washington.

00:50:04receptive submit to the brain's will the brain takes over that's all you know a strange thing
00:50:12happened this afternoon I was sitting in front of the brain concentrating like you do only to tell
00:50:19the truth I was wishing that thing would die when suddenly my head began to swim and I had an
00:50:25eerie feeling
00:50:26that that thing was reading my mind
00:50:32that must be the equipment I ordered
00:50:37dr. Corey that's right ally supply oh yes how would you like us to create the stuff outside why mess

00:51:08an
00:51:08automatic feeder which can nourish the brain for a year amplifiers for increasing the brain's output
00:51:15thermostatic temperature control plus a generator and changeover gimmicks which can supply power in case
00:51:20something happens to the regular power supply might as well get it installed now
00:51:32I don't like it Jan

00:53:46Step back!
00:53:51Step back!
00:53:53Step back!
00:53:57Step back!
00:53:58Step back!

00:53:59Step back!
00:54:00You lost your mind?
00:54:07I'm sorry, Frank.
00:54:10Give me your word not to interfere again.
00:54:12I was only trying to save you from yourself, pal.
00:54:15Did I ever try to stop you from having a drink?
00:54:17This is different.
00:54:18It's unnatural, unholy.
00:54:21Well, if it is, we'll let a higher power decide when it should end.
00:54:40Cigar counter.
00:54:43This is Dr. Corey in 612.
00:54:45Send me some Upman cigars.
00:54:46A box of 50 Supremes.
00:54:48Send out and get them.
00:54:52Come in.
00:54:55Well, Mr. Advisor himself.
00:54:58Did you have a pleasant flight, sir?
00:55:00Yes.
00:55:01Well, sit down, gentlemen.
00:55:02Make yourselves comfortable.
00:55:07There.
00:55:08I'm sure we've never met, but there's something about you.
00:55:12Perhaps it's the suit.
00:55:13Would you gentlemen have some coffee?
00:55:14That's it, the suit.
00:55:16Like Donovan's.
00:55:17But why, Dr. Corey?
00:55:18Does it matter?
00:55:20Now then, it is my understanding that in exchange for certain considerations,
00:55:25you and your Washington connections would handle Mr. Donovan's tax situation in such a way that...
00:55:29Donovan's dead, Dr. Corey, and that seems to me...
00:55:32As I was saying, in such a way that the statute of limitations would ultimately cause the government's case to
00:55:38be thrown out.
00:55:39Now you may talk.
00:55:41Donovan's death released me from any agreement I may have had.
00:55:44You're mistaken.
00:55:45Certain checks endorsed by you ensure that agreement.
00:55:52Try to understand my position, Dr. Corey.
00:55:55I'd felt dirty for many years.
00:55:57Here was my chance to...
00:55:59Well, I went to my friend, the Attorney General, and offered to cooperate in exchange for personal immunity.
00:56:06So you turned on your most powerful backer.
00:56:08It's a very touching story.
00:56:11Be that as it may, you will not clean your conscience at Mr. Donovan's expense.
00:56:15Is that clear?
00:56:17Come in.
00:56:21Oh, yes, yes.
00:56:23Thank you, thank you.
00:56:26Cigar.
00:56:27No, thank you.
00:56:28Mr. Fuller.
00:56:31Another reminder, like the suit?
00:56:33You put it very nicely, sir.
00:56:35Well?
00:56:36The Attorney General cannot allow me to reverse my present stand.
00:56:40That, of course, is your problem.
00:56:43As I understand it, it requires a quarter of a million dollars to continue with your original plan.
00:56:47The money will be in your office on the date Mr. Donovan said it would, as usual in cash.
00:56:54I suggest, Mr. Advisor, that you carry on.
00:56:59Is our procedure perfectly clear?
00:57:03Perfectly.
00:57:05I'm glad we understand each other.
00:57:07Gentlemen.
00:57:08Move.
00:57:23Come under.
00:57:33Hyder.
00:57:43Operator, this is an emergency.
00:57:45Get me Green Valley.
00:57:46114, please, and hurry.
00:57:51What?
00:57:53Circuits are busy.
00:57:54Well, keep trying.
00:57:55They can't be busy forever.
00:58:08Oh, Janice, I've been trying to reach you, but the line is busy.
00:58:12Darling, I ache all over with pain, and I don't know why.
00:58:17I don't know how long it's been, but I can't seem to break contact with Donovan.
00:58:21Now, listen carefully.
00:58:22I don't know that I'll ever be myself again.
00:58:25The line would only open.
00:58:30Well, keep trying.
00:58:33Janice, listen carefully.
00:58:34I've got to break away from the brain.
00:58:37I may have to do something desperate.
00:58:38I don't know.
00:58:40We have to end this thing.
00:58:42We'll have to take a wild chance.
00:58:44Now, you know the lightning rod on the roof of the house?
00:58:48I don't know.
00:58:50I don't know.
00:58:56I don't know.
00:59:26Tansy!
00:59:31Turn right on Wilshire.
00:59:52Turn right on Wilshire.
01:00:12There's a gray sedan following us, a hundred dollars if you lose it.
01:00:16You're the wrong boy, buddy.
01:00:17This is my bread and butter.
01:00:26Hey!
01:00:33Three.
01:00:54Two.
01:01:42Oh, darling.
01:01:54Mrs. Corey?
01:01:55Dr. Crane?
01:01:57Is he out of danger?
01:01:59He's in no danger, Mrs. Corey.
01:02:00The concussion was very mild.
01:02:02The leg was severely bruised and twisted out of joint.
01:02:05Just minor injuries.
01:02:06I doubt if he'll be here a week.
01:02:08He feels so much better.
01:02:10Your husband's an amazing man.
01:02:12He's shown absolutely no sign of pain.
01:02:16Oh?
01:02:16We like to minimize the use of sedatives.
01:02:19I know. I used to be a nurse.
01:02:20The entire staff is baffled.
01:02:22We can't understand.
01:02:25I think Pat does.
01:02:27One day he'll explain it to you.
01:02:30If he can, he'll amaze me.
01:02:34Well, Mrs. Corey, he seems to be waking up.
01:02:36I'll leave him to you.
01:02:51Darling.
01:02:56What happened?
01:02:59I'm in such pain.
01:03:03It's a hospital.
01:03:05You were in an accident.
01:03:07You'll be all right in a few days.
01:03:11Jan, this is unbelievable.
01:03:13It's very vague, but...
01:03:16I think I deliberately walked into that accident.
01:03:19But why?
01:03:20I don't know.
01:03:22Get away from someone, I think.
01:03:24I needed time.
01:03:27Time.
01:03:30I'm a little scared.
01:03:32Several times I've tried to break contact with Donovan.
01:03:34I haven't been able to.
01:03:37I did once, I think.
01:03:39I did some recording on the tape at the hotel.
01:03:44Let me tell Frank to turn off the current.
01:03:47New apparatus may be too strong.
01:03:48No, I have him turn it down 10 microvolts.
01:04:08What are you doing here?
01:04:10Why aren't you at home?
01:04:13Well, Dahlia.
01:04:15Go on home where you belong.
01:04:16Go on, get out.
01:04:18Get out.
01:04:20I'll be there in a few days.
01:04:28Anything you say.
01:04:59Hello?
01:05:01Yes, I'll accept the call.
01:05:03Hello, Jan.
01:05:05Frank, I don't know what to do.
01:05:07Even Pat's worried.
01:05:08He doesn't seem to be able to throw off the influence of the brain.
01:05:11I was afraid that would happen.
01:05:13Brain has hardly quieted down since he left.
01:05:16He wants you to turn the current down 10 microvolts.
01:05:18Do it, will you?
01:05:19And do something else for me, please.
01:05:22I want to stay here in the hospital waiting room.
01:05:24The number of the phone is Adams 3-9105.
01:05:27Call me whenever the brain goes to sleep.
01:05:29I've got to talk to Pat again when he's himself.
01:05:32Sure.
01:05:32Good idea.
01:05:33Will do.
01:05:47Good idea.
01:05:58THE END
01:06:23Dr. Corey, we don't understand what you're trying to do.
01:06:26Well, did Mr. Fuller explain?
01:06:27It made no sense. Father's dead.
01:06:29Don't you see? Tom and I want to cooperate with the government.
01:06:32They're entitled to the back taxes they want.
01:06:34How dare you criticize my behavior?
01:06:37Aren't we entitled to the truth?
01:06:38It's a terrible thing to say.
01:06:40But Dad was an awful man.
01:06:42Better off dead.
01:06:44His possessiveness, ugly suspicions,
01:06:46drove Mother nearly insane.
01:06:48He had her committed to an institution
01:06:50because she tried to take her own life.
01:06:52It took his death for us to get Mother out.
01:06:54So you hated him too.
01:06:57I loathed him.
01:06:58Most people loathed him.
01:07:00Get them out of here, Fuller.
01:07:02See that neither of them gets another dime.
01:07:05Impossible, Doctor.
01:07:06Not at all.
01:07:06I have a signed document to that effect.
01:07:08It'll be on your desk in the morning.
01:07:10Now, you parasitic ingrates,
01:07:13get out.
01:07:14Tuesday night.
01:07:15Go.
01:07:17Watch out.
01:07:20Stay out.
01:07:23Bye for you.
01:07:26Bye.
01:07:28Bye.
01:07:31Bye.
01:07:34Bye.
01:07:41Bye.
01:07:44Hey, Doc, I read about your accident. How do you feel?
01:07:48All right.
01:07:49Going to sue the company with the truck that hit you?
01:07:51I hadn't thought of it.
01:07:52Let me handle it. My other cousin's an M.D.
01:07:54He and the other cousin, you remember the one I told you about's a lawyer?
01:07:57They'll rig you up a great case.
01:07:58You came here for that?
01:08:00Well, not exactly, Doc. I figured out another advance.
01:08:05How much this time?
01:08:06Same amount. Two grand.
01:08:08It's been less than a week.
01:08:10I know, but, Doc, I was in a hard cup to my eyeballs.
01:08:13And I had to buy a car.
01:08:15How long does this go on?
01:08:17Oh, just till the article's published.
01:08:22Tell you what, Joachim, why don't you get your camera,
01:08:24drive out to the ranch, and take some more pictures of the brain?
01:08:27Hey, that's a swell idea, and I need some closer shots.
01:08:29You could leave right now.
01:08:31I'll phone Shrat and tell him to give you a hand.
01:08:33Swell. I'll get the money out of your pocket.
01:08:40Ah, Doc, you're a real pal.
01:08:43Well, better get on with it. See ya.
01:08:46Yeah.
01:08:52Here we're at Green Valley 114.
01:09:04Jan?
01:09:06Oh, hello, Pat. Good to hear your voice.
01:09:09Where's Janice? Why isn't she there with you?
01:09:12We're out of groceries, pal. She's going downtown.
01:09:16Now, listen, Frank.
01:09:17You know the photographer, Joachim?
01:09:19He's on his way there right now.
01:09:22Leave him in the lab alone.
01:09:24Understand?
01:09:26Ten minutes alone.
01:09:28Yeah.
01:09:29The brain?
01:09:30Perfect. Great.
01:09:32Bigger and better every day.
01:09:34Good work, Frank. Thanks.
01:10:08bigger parts.
01:10:11I'll see you next time.
01:10:11Fair enough.
01:10:11S wallet in the background,
01:10:31Yeah, you
01:10:32is made. No matter what,
01:10:40Oh, my God.

01:19:39Oh, my God.
01:19:56Frank!
01:20:03Surprised?
01:20:06You forgot, my dear,
01:20:08that you and Frank are ordinary people
01:20:09with limited mental capacities.
01:20:11You couldn't possibly compete
01:20:13with a fully developed, powerful brain.
01:20:18Thanks to Dr. Patrick Corey,
01:20:20Donovan's brain will live, thrive,
01:20:23and continue to grow far beyond
01:20:25the body of Dr. Corey.
01:20:26It is already able to exist in anybody,
01:20:30anywhere it will.
01:20:32Knowing this, you now know too much.
01:20:36So look at my brain, my dear.
01:20:39Your last look.
01:20:41I promise it will not be
01:20:43a painful one.
01:20:53No...
01:20:58No...
01:21:05Screams
01:21:06I do healthily
01:21:10I do nothing.
01:21:12you can't have time in my body.
01:21:12Okay, get right closer.
01:21:12No i can't ahem.
01:21:16Go on!
01:21:21We want you.
01:21:23Come on.
01:21:52Good afternoon, Mrs. Corey. Is the doctor ready?
01:21:54He'll be right with you, Mr. Brooke.
01:21:56You feeling better?
01:21:56Much better, thanks.
01:21:57Good.
01:21:58Mr. Brooke, what do you think about... I mean, how long do you suppose he'll be gone?
01:22:05Well, I'm sorry. It's hard to say. It depends on whether there's an indictment.
01:22:09Well, they do know it was Pat's plan to end this thing by hooking the lightning rod into the power
01:22:13supply.
01:22:13They know that, don't they?
01:22:14It's all on the tape recorder, Mrs. Corey.
01:22:17Of course, a great deal will hinge on the decision of the medical board as to the ethics of the
01:22:21experiment and the validity of the results.
01:22:24Well, we'll get turned around.
01:22:30Mr. Brooke has the police, dear. Did you find the files on last year?
01:22:33Everything, all charts and notes were covered on practically every minute since we first started research.
01:22:38Thanks to you, dear.
01:22:40Hurry back.
01:22:41I'll try.
01:22:42But they can't blame you. They can't.
01:22:44Jan, I went into this with my eyes open, but it got out of hand, and I did many foolish
01:22:48things, things that made other people suffer.
01:22:51I'm only grateful the storm struck when it did and that Frank survived.
01:22:55Will he be well enough to help you testify?
01:22:57I hope so.
01:23:00Maybe if everything works out, they can use another country doctor around here.
01:23:03No, dear.
01:23:05You're a scientist and always will be.
01:23:08I love you very much.
01:23:11Let's go, pal.
01:23:41Let's go, pal.
