1
00:00:06,089 --> 00:00:08,467
There is a fifth dimension

2
00:00:08,550 --> 00:00:10,761
beyond tha t which
is known to man.

3
00:00:10,844 --> 00:00:13,847
It is a dimension
as vastas space

4
00:00:13,931 --> 00:00:16,767
and as timeless as infinity.

5
00:00:16,850 --> 00:00:20,437
It is the middle ground
between lightand shadow,

6
00:00:20,479 --> 00:00:22,689
between science
and s upers ti tion.

7
00:00:22,773 --> 00:00:25,859
And it lies between
the pit of man's fears

8
00:00:25,943 --> 00:00:28,862
and the summit of his knowledge.

9
00:00:28,946 --> 00:00:31,448
This is the dimension
of ima Gina tion.

10
00:00:31,490 --> 00:00:35,619
It is an area which we
call the twilightzone.

11
00:00:48,131 --> 00:00:52,344
Maple street, u. S.A.
La te summer.

12
00:00:52,427 --> 00:00:56,890
A tree-lined little world of
front-porch gliders, barbecues,

13
00:00:56,974 --> 00:01:00,644
the la ughter of children, and
the bell ofan ice-cream vendor.

14
00:01:03,522 --> 00:01:06,525
A t the sound of the roar
and the flash of light,

15
00:01:06,608 --> 00:01:11,363
it will be precisel y
6:43 p. M. On maple street.

16
00:01:28,463 --> 00:01:30,674
What was that, a meteor?

17
00:01:30,716 --> 00:01:32,509
Yeah, that's what
it looked like.

18
00:01:32,551 --> 00:01:34,928
I didn't hear any
crash though, did you?

19
00:01:35,012 --> 00:01:38,390
No, I didn't hear
anything except a roar.

20
00:01:38,473 --> 00:01:40,559
Steve, what was that?

21
00:01:40,642 --> 00:01:43,687
I guess it was a meteor, honey.
It came awful close, didn't it?

22
00:01:43,729 --> 00:01:48,609
Too close for my money.
Much too close.

23
00:01:52,487 --> 00:01:56,742
This is maple street
on a la te sa turda yafternoon.

24
00:01:56,825 --> 00:02:01,371
Maple street in the last
calm and reflective moment

25
00:02:01,455 --> 00:02:04,041
before the monsters came.

26
00:02:31,068 --> 00:02:33,153
Operator. Operator!

27
00:02:36,907 --> 00:02:38,992
Operator!

28
00:02:47,084 --> 00:02:49,961
Steve, the power's off. I
had the soup on the stove

29
00:02:50,045 --> 00:02:51,922
and the stove just
stopped working.

30
00:02:52,005 --> 00:02:55,967
Is your phone all right? I
can't get anybody on mine.

31
00:02:56,051 --> 00:02:59,012
Our electric! Ty isn't
good. Is the power off?

32
00:02:59,096 --> 00:03:02,766
Our radio's gone dead.

33
00:03:04,184 --> 00:03:05,936
I'll cut across the backyard.

34
00:03:06,019 --> 00:03:09,231
See if the power is
still on on floral street.

35
00:03:12,984 --> 00:03:15,320
Doesn't make sense.

36
00:03:15,404 --> 00:03:19,324
Why should the power go off
all of a sudden and the phone line?

37
00:03:19,408 --> 00:03:21,952
Maybe some kind of an
electrical storm or something.

38
00:03:22,035 --> 00:03:24,496
Now, that don't seem likely.

39
00:03:24,579 --> 00:03:27,833
The sky's as blue as anything. Not
a cloud, no lightning, no thunder.

40
00:03:27,916 --> 00:03:29,835
How could it be a storm?

41
00:03:29,918 --> 00:03:32,504
Can't get a thing on the
radio. Not even on the portable.

42
00:03:32,587 --> 00:03:35,132
Why don't we go downtown
and check with the police?

43
00:03:35,215 --> 00:03:37,801
They'll probably think
we're crazy or something.

44
00:03:37,843 --> 00:03:40,971
A little power failure and everybody
gets flustered and everything.

45
00:03:41,054 --> 00:03:43,223
It isn't justa power
failure, Charlie.

46
00:03:43,306 --> 00:03:47,227
If it were, we'd still be able to
get a broadcast on the portable.

47
00:03:47,310 --> 00:03:50,814
I'll take a run downtown. Maybe
I can get it straightened out.

48
00:04:19,009 --> 00:04:22,429
I don't understand it.
It was working fine before.

49
00:04:22,512 --> 00:04:23,805
Are you out of gas?

50
00:04:23,889 --> 00:04:25,182
I just filled it up.

51
00:04:25,265 --> 00:04:27,017
Well, what does it mean?

52
00:04:27,058 --> 00:04:29,936
It's as if everything stopped.

53
00:04:30,020 --> 00:04:32,355
Maybe we'd better walk downtown.

54
00:04:32,439 --> 00:04:34,107
Well, let's both go, Charlie.

55
00:04:34,191 --> 00:04:35,692
Yeah.

56
00:04:38,028 --> 00:04:41,281
Mr. Brand, you better not.

57
00:04:41,364 --> 00:04:42,741
Why not?

58
00:04:42,824 --> 00:04:45,744
They don't want you to.

59
00:04:45,827 --> 00:04:47,537
Who doesn't want us to?

60
00:04:47,621 --> 00:04:50,123
Them.

61
00:04:50,207 --> 00:04:51,625
Them?

62
00:04:51,708 --> 00:04:53,418
Who are them?

63
00:04:53,502 --> 00:04:57,047
Whoever was in that thing
that came by overhead.

64
00:04:57,130 --> 00:05:01,802
Whoever was in the thing that came over.
I don't think they want us to leave here.

65
00:05:07,390 --> 00:05:09,976
What do you mean, Tommy?
What are you talking about?

66
00:05:10,060 --> 00:05:13,063
They don't want us to leave.
That's why they shut everything off.

67
00:05:13,146 --> 00:05:15,816
What makes you say that?
Where did you get that idea?

68
00:05:15,899 --> 00:05:17,943
Isn't that the craziest
thing you've heard?

69
00:05:18,026 --> 00:05:20,654
It's always that way in
every story I've ever read

70
00:05:20,737 --> 00:05:23,406
about a ship landing
from outer space.

71
00:05:23,490 --> 00:05:26,827
From outer space, yet? Sal, you
better take him upstairs, put him to bed.

72
00:05:26,910 --> 00:05:30,163
He's been reading too many comic
books or seeing too many movies.

73
00:05:30,247 --> 00:05:33,124
Tommy, you stop that kind
of talk. Come on, let's go.

74
00:05:33,208 --> 00:05:36,753
Go ahead, Tommy. We'll be
right back and then you'll see.

75
00:05:36,795 --> 00:05:40,465
It wasn't a ship. It was
a meteor or something.

76
00:05:40,549 --> 00:05:44,261
Likely as not, that's the cause of
the power failure and all the rest of it.

77
00:05:44,302 --> 00:05:48,932
Meteors can do crazy
things like, like sun spots.

78
00:05:48,974 --> 00:05:52,185
Sure that's the kind
of thing, like sun spots.

79
00:05:52,269 --> 00:05:55,438
They raise Cain with radio
reception all over the world.

80
00:05:55,480 --> 00:06:00,110
This thing being so close, there's
no telling the sort of stuff it can do.

81
00:06:00,151 --> 00:06:02,863
You go ahead, Steve. You
and Charlie go into town,

82
00:06:02,946 --> 00:06:05,532
see if that isn't
what's causing it all.

83
00:06:07,617 --> 00:06:09,953
Mr. Brand?

84
00:06:10,036 --> 00:06:11,955
Mr. Brand, please
don't leave here.

85
00:06:12,038 --> 00:06:14,875
You might not even
be able to get to town.

86
00:06:14,958 --> 00:06:17,460
It was that way in the
story. Nobody could leave.

87
00:06:17,544 --> 00:06:19,129
Nobod y excep t...

88
00:06:19,170 --> 00:06:20,964
Except who?

89
00:06:21,047 --> 00:06:23,550
Except the people they'd
sent down ahead of them.

90
00:06:23,633 --> 00:06:28,013
They looked just like humans. And
it wasn't until the ship landed that...

91
00:06:28,096 --> 00:06:31,474
Tommy, please, son.
Honey, don't talk like that.

92
00:06:31,516 --> 00:06:35,061
It's the craziest thing I've ever heard
of. The kid tells a comic book plot

93
00:06:35,145 --> 00:06:37,063
and we stand here listening.

94
00:06:37,147 --> 00:06:39,316
Wait a minute. Wait a minute.

95
00:06:39,357 --> 00:06:41,568
Go ahead, Tommy. What
kind of a story was it?

96
00:06:41,651 --> 00:06:44,070
What about the people
they sent ahead?

97
00:06:44,154 --> 00:06:46,656
That was the way they
prepared things for the landing.

98
00:06:46,740 --> 00:06:50,076
They sent four people. A
mother and a father and two kids

99
00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:53,413
who looked just like
humans, but they weren't.

100
00:07:08,345 --> 00:07:11,681
Well, I guess what we need to do
is run a check of the neighborhood

101
00:07:11,723 --> 00:07:14,768
and find out which ones
of us are really human.

102
00:07:20,649 --> 00:07:24,778
There's no use standing
around making bum jokes about it.

103
00:07:27,322 --> 00:07:30,784
Wonder if floral street's got
the same kind of deal we have.

104
00:07:30,867 --> 00:07:34,454
Where's Pete Van horn?
Has he come back, yet?

105
00:07:37,374 --> 00:07:39,876
Does your car start, les?

106
00:07:39,918 --> 00:07:41,711
No dice.

107
00:07:48,885 --> 00:07:51,096
Well, I don't know what's wrong.

108
00:07:51,179 --> 00:07:52,973
Nothing seems to be working.

109
00:07:53,056 --> 00:07:55,475
Can't even get the car started.

110
00:08:04,234 --> 00:08:06,403
Car started somehow.

111
00:08:06,444 --> 00:08:08,071
He got his car started.

112
00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:20,250
How come his car just
up and started like that?

113
00:08:20,291 --> 00:08:22,210
All by itself.

114
00:08:22,293 --> 00:08:25,588
He wasn't anywhere near
it. It just started by itself.

115
00:08:27,716 --> 00:08:31,761
He never did come out to look
at that thing that flew overhead.

116
00:08:31,803 --> 00:08:33,847
He wasn't even interested.

117
00:08:33,930 --> 00:08:35,974
He always was an oddball.

118
00:08:36,057 --> 00:08:39,811
Him and his whole
family. Real oddball.

119
00:08:39,894 --> 00:08:42,564
Now, why didn't he come out
with the rest of us to look?

120
00:08:42,647 --> 00:08:44,858
What do you say we go ask him?

121
00:08:47,777 --> 00:08:49,362
Wait a minute.

122
00:08:49,446 --> 00:08:51,281
Wait a minute!

123
00:08:51,364 --> 00:08:54,159
Now, let's not be a mob.

124
00:09:00,790 --> 00:09:03,626
I just don't understand it.

125
00:09:03,710 --> 00:09:06,546
I tried to start it.
It wouldn't start.

126
00:09:06,629 --> 00:09:08,798
You saw me. All of you saw me.

127
00:09:18,016 --> 00:09:21,519
I don't understand.

128
00:09:21,603 --> 00:09:26,232
I swear I just don't
understand. What's happening?

129
00:09:26,316 --> 00:09:30,570
Well, maybe you better tell us.
There's nothing working on this street.

130
00:09:30,653 --> 00:09:34,491
Nothing. No lights,
no power, no radio.

131
00:09:34,532 --> 00:09:37,160
Nothing except one car. Yours.

132
00:09:37,202 --> 00:09:39,079
How do you figure
it started, les?

133
00:09:39,162 --> 00:09:41,081
How do you explain that?

134
00:09:41,164 --> 00:09:45,543
Wait a minute, now. Just
keep your distance. All of you.

135
00:09:45,627 --> 00:09:47,921
Okay, so I've got a car
that starts by itself.

136
00:09:48,004 --> 00:09:50,215
Well, it's a freak
thing, I admit it.

137
00:09:50,298 --> 00:09:52,592
What's it make me, a
criminal or something?

138
00:09:52,675 --> 00:09:55,095
I don't know why it
starts, it just does.

139
00:09:55,178 --> 00:09:57,347
What's this all about, Steve?

140
00:09:57,430 --> 00:09:59,557
We're ona monster kick, les.

141
00:09:59,641 --> 00:10:03,394
Seems the general impression now
holds that maybe there's a family

142
00:10:03,478 --> 00:10:06,231
that isn't what
we think they are.

143
00:10:06,314 --> 00:10:10,068
Monsters from outer space
or something different than us.

144
00:10:10,151 --> 00:10:13,571
Fifth columnists
from the vast beyond.

145
00:10:13,655 --> 00:10:18,910
Now, do you know anybody that might fit that
description around here on maple street?

146
00:10:18,993 --> 00:10:21,121
This is a gag or something?

147
00:10:21,204 --> 00:10:23,456
What is this? A practical
joke or something?

148
00:10:34,008 --> 00:10:37,762
That's supposed
to incriminate me, huh?

149
00:10:37,846 --> 00:10:41,307
The car starts and stops
and that really does it, huh?

150
00:10:41,391 --> 00:10:43,309
Reall y does it?

151
00:10:43,393 --> 00:10:46,521
Well, I don't understand it
any more than any of you do.

152
00:10:49,399 --> 00:10:53,736
Look, you all know me. We've lived
here for five years, right in this house.

153
00:10:53,778 --> 00:10:56,906
We aren't any different
from you. Any different at all.

154
00:10:56,990 --> 00:10:59,117
The whole thing is just...

155
00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:01,327
Really, the whole
thing is just weird.

156
00:11:01,411 --> 00:11:04,998
Well, if that's the case, les
Goodman, then explain why you...

157
00:11:05,081 --> 00:11:06,791
Explain what?

158
00:11:06,875 --> 00:11:09,252
Let's just forget it.

159
00:11:09,335 --> 00:11:14,674
Wait a minute. Let her talk.
Go ahead, explain what?

160
00:11:14,757 --> 00:11:17,677
Well, sometimes I
stay up late at night

161
00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:20,096
and a couple of times...

162
00:11:20,180 --> 00:11:22,599
Well, a couple of times
I've come out on my porch

163
00:11:22,682 --> 00:11:25,435
and I've seen les Goodman here

164
00:11:25,518 --> 00:11:27,687
in the wee hours of the morning

165
00:11:27,770 --> 00:11:32,317
standing in his yard
just looking up at the sky.

166
00:11:32,400 --> 00:11:35,028
That's right. Just, just
looking up at the sky

167
00:11:35,111 --> 00:11:38,489
as though he were
waiting for something.

168
00:11:38,573 --> 00:11:41,534
As though he were
looking for something.

169
00:11:41,618 --> 00:11:43,912
You know, really
this is for laughs.

170
00:11:45,413 --> 00:11:47,790
You know what I'm guilty of?

171
00:11:47,874 --> 00:11:50,710
I'm guilty of insomnia.

172
00:11:50,793 --> 00:11:54,547
Now, what's the
penalty for that?

173
00:11:54,631 --> 00:11:58,134
Well, you heard what I
said. I said it was insomnia.

174
00:11:58,176 --> 00:12:00,553
I said it was insomnia!

175
00:12:00,637 --> 00:12:04,641
You scared, frightened
rabbits, you.

176
00:12:04,682 --> 00:12:07,060
You're sick people,
do you know that?

177
00:12:07,143 --> 00:12:09,646
You're sick people, all of you.

178
00:12:09,687 --> 00:12:13,650
And you don't even know what you're
starting here because let me tell you,

179
00:12:13,733 --> 00:12:17,737
let me tell you, you're
starting something here that...

180
00:12:17,820 --> 00:12:20,240
That's what you should
be frightened of.

181
00:12:20,323 --> 00:12:24,202
As god is my witness, you're
letting something begin here that's...

182
00:12:24,285 --> 00:12:26,079
That's a nightmare.

183
00:13:15,211 --> 00:13:18,298
It just doesn't seem right
keeping a watch on them.

184
00:13:18,381 --> 00:13:20,758
They're our neighbors.

185
00:13:20,842 --> 00:13:25,388
We've known the goodmans ever since
they came here. We've been good friends.

186
00:13:26,889 --> 00:13:29,726
Look, that don't prove a thing.

187
00:13:29,767 --> 00:13:33,271
Any guy who'd spend his time looking
up at the sky early in the morning,

188
00:13:33,354 --> 00:13:35,982
there's something wrong
with that kind of a person.

189
00:13:36,065 --> 00:13:40,069
Something that ain't legitimate.

190
00:13:40,153 --> 00:13:45,325
Under normal circumstances let it go
by, but these aren't normal circumstances.

191
00:13:45,408 --> 00:13:47,493
Look at that street.

192
00:13:47,577 --> 00:13:49,829
Nothing but candles.

193
00:13:49,912 --> 00:13:53,333
It's like going back into
the dark ages or something.

194
00:13:53,416 --> 00:13:58,421
Stay right where you are,
Steve. We don't wantany trouble.

195
00:13:58,463 --> 00:14:02,842
But this time, anyone who sets foot on my
porch, that's what he's gonna get. Trouble.

196
00:14:02,925 --> 00:14:04,427
Look, les, I'm...

197
00:14:04,510 --> 00:14:06,262
I've already
explained to you people.

198
00:14:06,346 --> 00:14:09,432
I don't sleep very well
at night sometimes,

199
00:14:09,515 --> 00:14:13,978
so I get up, I go out, I take
a walk, I look up at the sky,

200
00:14:14,062 --> 00:14:15,772
I look at the stars.

201
00:14:15,855 --> 00:14:18,274
That's exactly what he does.

202
00:14:18,316 --> 00:14:20,526
This whole thing is
some kind of madness.

203
00:14:20,610 --> 00:14:24,947
That's exactly what it is, Mrs.
Goodman. Some kind of madness.

204
00:14:24,989 --> 00:14:27,700
You best wa toh
who you're seen with, Steve,

205
00:14:27,784 --> 00:14:31,954
till we get this all straightened
out. You ain't above suspicion yourself.

206
00:14:32,038 --> 00:14:37,460
Or you, Charlie. Or any of us
it seems from age eight on up.

207
00:14:37,502 --> 00:14:39,504
What I wanna know is
what are we gonna do.

208
00:14:39,587 --> 00:14:41,297
Just stay around here all night?

209
00:14:41,381 --> 00:14:43,508
There's nothing else we can do.

210
00:14:43,591 --> 00:14:46,386
One of them'll tip
their hand. They got to.

211
00:14:46,469 --> 00:14:50,556
There's something you can do, Charlie.
You can go inside and keep your mouth shut.

212
00:14:50,640 --> 00:14:53,810
You can quit sitting there like
a self-appointed hanging judge

213
00:14:53,851 --> 00:14:56,479
and just climb into
bed and forget it.

214
00:14:56,562 --> 00:15:00,191
You sound pretty anxious
to have that happen, Steve.

215
00:15:00,274 --> 00:15:04,320
I guess we oughtta
keep an eye on you, too.

216
00:15:04,404 --> 00:15:08,658
Yeah, I think maybe everything
might as well come out now.

217
00:15:08,699 --> 00:15:11,411
Your wife's been doing
a little talking, Steve,

218
00:15:11,494 --> 00:15:14,330
about some of the odd
things you've been doing.

219
00:15:14,372 --> 00:15:16,332
Yeah?

220
00:15:16,374 --> 00:15:20,420
Well, go ahead, Don.
Tell us what she said.

221
00:15:20,503 --> 00:15:23,423
Go ahead. What's my wife
said? Let's get it all out.

222
00:15:23,506 --> 00:15:25,425
Let's pick out
every idiosyncrasy

223
00:15:25,508 --> 00:15:28,344
of every man, woman and
child on this whole street.

224
00:15:28,428 --> 00:15:32,348
And then we might as well set
up some kind of a kangaroo court.

225
00:15:32,390 --> 00:15:36,269
Now, how about a firing squad at dawn,
Charlie, to get rid of all the suspects?

226
00:15:36,352 --> 00:15:40,022
Narrow them down for you.
Make it easier. Huh? Right, Don?

227
00:15:40,106 --> 00:15:44,444
Well, there's no need getting
so upset, Steve. It's just that...

228
00:15:44,527 --> 00:15:47,363
Myra's talked about how
there's been plenty of nights

229
00:15:47,405 --> 00:15:49,365
you spent hours down
in your basement

230
00:15:49,449 --> 00:15:53,119
working on some kind
of radio or something.

231
00:15:53,202 --> 00:15:57,123
Well, none of us ha ve
ever seen tha t radio.

232
00:16:05,715 --> 00:16:08,801
Go ahead, Steve.

233
00:16:08,885 --> 00:16:12,555
What kind of radio
set you working on?

234
00:16:12,638 --> 00:16:16,893
I never seen it.
Neither has anyone else.

235
00:16:16,976 --> 00:16:21,147
Who talks to you on that radio
set, and who do you talk to?

236
00:16:21,230 --> 00:16:24,567
Well, I'm surprised
at you, Charlie.

237
00:16:24,650 --> 00:16:27,403
How come you're so
dense all of a sudden?

238
00:16:27,487 --> 00:16:31,991
Who do I talk to? I talk to
monsters from outer space.

239
00:16:32,074 --> 00:16:36,329
I talk to three-headed green men who
fly over here in what look like meteors.

240
00:16:36,412 --> 00:16:38,664
Please, Steve, please.

241
00:16:38,748 --> 00:16:42,668
It's just a-a ham
radio set, that's all.

242
00:16:42,752 --> 00:16:44,629
I bought the book
for him myself.

243
00:16:44,712 --> 00:16:47,507
It's just a ham radio set.

244
00:16:47,590 --> 00:16:51,177
A lot of people have them. I'll show
it to you. It's down in the basement.

245
00:16:51,260 --> 00:16:54,013
No. No, we won't
show them anything.

246
00:16:54,096 --> 00:16:57,141
If they wanna look inside our
house, let them get a search warrant.

247
00:16:57,225 --> 00:16:58,976
Look, buddy, you
can't afford to...

248
00:16:59,060 --> 00:17:02,146
Charlie, don't you tell
me what I can afford.

249
00:17:02,230 --> 00:17:04,774
And stop telling me who's
dangerous and who isn't,

250
00:17:04,857 --> 00:17:07,318
and who's safe
and who's a menace.

251
00:17:07,401 --> 00:17:10,488
And you with him,
too, all of you.

252
00:17:10,571 --> 00:17:14,450
You're all standing out here
all set to crucify somebody.

253
00:17:14,534 --> 00:17:17,203
You're all set
to find a scapegoat.

254
00:17:17,286 --> 00:17:21,040
You're all desperate to point
some kind of a finger at a neighbor.

255
00:17:21,123 --> 00:17:24,627
Well, believe me, friends, the
only thing that's gonna happen

256
00:17:24,710 --> 00:17:28,297
is that we're gonna
eat each other up alive.

257
00:18:11,132 --> 00:18:13,718
I t's the monster.
I t's the monster.

258
00:18:24,729 --> 00:18:26,772
Here, we may need this.

259
00:18:26,856 --> 00:18:30,526
What, a shotgun? Will somebody
think? What good is a shotgun?

260
00:18:30,568 --> 00:18:33,279
No more talk, Steve. You're
gonna talk us right into a grave.

261
00:18:33,362 --> 00:18:36,324
You'd let whatever's out there
walk right over us with you.

262
00:18:36,407 --> 00:18:39,118
Well, some of us won't.

263
00:19:01,390 --> 00:19:03,309
It's Pete Van horn.

264
00:19:03,392 --> 00:19:05,686
Pete Van horn.

265
00:19:05,770 --> 00:19:09,899
Well, he was just going over to the
next block to see if the power was on.

266
00:19:09,982 --> 00:19:12,234
Charlie, you killed him.

267
00:19:12,318 --> 00:19:14,654
He's dead.

268
00:19:16,614 --> 00:19:18,991
I didn't know who he was.

269
00:19:19,075 --> 00:19:22,161
I most certainly
didn't know who he was.

270
00:19:24,038 --> 00:19:26,832
Well, he came out
of the darkness.

271
00:19:26,916 --> 00:19:29,585
How was I supposed
to know who he was?

272
00:19:32,588 --> 00:19:37,009
Steve? You know why I shot him.

273
00:19:37,093 --> 00:19:40,262
How was I supposed to know he
wasn't a monster or something?

274
00:19:40,346 --> 00:19:43,349
I was only trying
to protect my home.

275
00:19:43,432 --> 00:19:46,686
I didn't know it
was somebody we knew.

276
00:19:46,769 --> 00:19:48,437
I didn't know.

277
00:19:48,479 --> 00:19:51,023
Look! Charlie?

278
00:19:51,107 --> 00:19:55,152
Charlie, the lights just
went on in your house.

279
00:19:55,236 --> 00:19:59,198
Why did the lights
go on in your house?

280
00:19:59,281 --> 00:20:03,703
What about it, Charlie? How come
you're the only one with lights now?

281
00:20:03,786 --> 00:20:08,708
That's what I'd like to know.
You were so quick to kill, Charlie.

282
00:20:08,791 --> 00:20:11,210
And so quick to tell us
who we had to look out for.

283
00:20:11,293 --> 00:20:16,298
Maybe you had to kill. Maybe Pete
was trying to tell us something.

284
00:20:16,382 --> 00:20:19,051
Maybe Pete learned something
and came back to tell us

285
00:20:19,135 --> 00:20:22,054
who it was amongst us
we had to look out for.

286
00:20:22,138 --> 00:20:24,390
No, no, it's
nothing of the sort.

287
00:20:24,473 --> 00:20:26,976
I didn't know the lights
were on. I swear I didn't.

288
00:20:27,059 --> 00:20:29,145
Somebody's pulling
a gag or something.

289
00:20:29,186 --> 00:20:33,149
A gag? A gag? Charlie, there's
a man lying dead in the street

290
00:20:33,232 --> 00:20:36,444
and you killed him. Does
that look like a gag to you?

291
00:20:49,039 --> 00:20:52,251
Look. Look, I swear it isn't me!

292
00:20:52,334 --> 00:20:54,754
I swear it isn't!
I know who it is!

293
00:20:54,837 --> 00:20:56,547
I know who the monster is!

294
00:20:56,630 --> 00:20:59,091
I know who it is that
doesn't belong among us!

295
00:20:59,175 --> 00:21:01,010
I swear I know who it is!

296
00:21:01,093 --> 00:21:04,597
All right, Charlie,
let's hear it.

297
00:21:04,680 --> 00:21:05,931
What are you waiting for?

298
00:21:06,015 --> 00:21:07,933
Come on, Charlie, come on.

299
00:21:08,017 --> 00:21:10,019
Who is it, Charlie? Tell us!

300
00:21:10,102 --> 00:21:13,606
It's the kid! It's
Tommy! He's the one!

301
00:21:13,689 --> 00:21:15,566
Well, that's not true.

302
00:21:19,987 --> 00:21:21,739
It isn't so.

303
00:21:24,950 --> 00:21:26,744
He's a little boy.

304
00:21:26,827 --> 00:21:30,539
It was this kid who knew
what was going to happen.

305
00:21:30,623 --> 00:21:32,958
He was the one who knew.

306
00:21:33,042 --> 00:21:35,461
How did he know?
How could he have known?

307
00:21:35,544 --> 00:21:37,213
Ma ybe tomm y's an alien.

308
00:21:37,296 --> 00:21:39,298
What's the matter with
you people? Now stop!

309
00:21:39,381 --> 00:21:41,634
How did you know?

310
00:21:46,055 --> 00:21:48,057
Don't let him get to the house.

311
00:21:48,140 --> 00:21:50,476
You're right, I t's him.

312
00:21:50,559 --> 00:21:55,064
It isn't the kid.
It's Bob Weaver's house.

313
00:21:55,147 --> 00:21:59,276
It isn't Bob Weaver's
place. It's Don's house.

314
00:21:59,360 --> 00:22:00,569
It's the Williams' house.

315
00:22:00,653 --> 00:22:01,904
It's the kid, I tell you.

316
00:22:01,987 --> 00:22:03,447
It's Charlie, he's the one.

317
00:22:08,911 --> 00:22:10,079
Stop!

318
00:22:16,210 --> 00:22:17,795
It's Steve!

319
00:22:17,878 --> 00:22:19,171
Stop it!

320
00:22:19,255 --> 00:22:21,465
Fools!

321
00:22:42,111 --> 00:22:44,655
Understand the procedure now?

322
00:22:44,738 --> 00:22:47,032
Just stop a few
of their machines

323
00:22:47,116 --> 00:22:50,494
and radios and telephones
and lawn mowers.

324
00:22:50,578 --> 00:22:52,705
Throw them into
darkness for a few hours

325
00:22:52,788 --> 00:22:56,000
and then sit back
and watch the pattern.

326
00:22:56,083 --> 00:22:58,627
And this pattern is
always the same?

327
00:22:58,669 --> 00:23:00,880
With few variations.

328
00:23:00,963 --> 00:23:04,174
They pick the most
dangerous enemy they can find,

329
00:23:04,258 --> 00:23:06,218
and it's themselves.

330
00:23:06,302 --> 00:23:09,722
All we need do is
sit back and watch.

331
00:23:09,805 --> 00:23:14,476
Then I take it this place, this
maple street is not unique.

332
00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:19,565
By no means. Their world
is full of maple streets

333
00:23:19,648 --> 00:23:23,652
and we'll go from one to the other
and let them destroy themselves.

334
00:23:23,736 --> 00:23:27,573
One to the other.
One to the other.

335
00:23:27,656 --> 00:23:30,451
One to the other.

336
00:23:32,912 --> 00:23:35,873
The tools of oonouest
do not ne oessa ril y oome

337
00:23:35,956 --> 00:23:39,335
with bombs and expl
osions and fall out.

338
00:23:39,418 --> 00:23:43,839
There are weapons tha t are simpl
y thoughts, a ttitudes, prejudices,

339
00:23:43,881 --> 00:23:47,092
to be found onl y
in the minds of men.

340
00:23:47,176 --> 00:23:50,846
For the record,
prejudices can kill

341
00:23:50,888 --> 00:23:53,557
and suspicion can destroy.

342
00:23:53,641 --> 00:23:56,435
And a thoughtless, frightened
search for a scapegoa t

343
00:23:56,518 --> 00:23:58,938
has a fallout all of its own

344
00:23:59,021 --> 00:24:02,775
for the children and
the children yet unborn.

345
00:24:02,858 --> 00:24:08,197
And the pity of it is tha t
these things cannot be confined

346
00:24:08,280 --> 00:24:11,951
to the twil igh t zone.

347
