a dimension not onl y of
sightand sound, but of mind.

A journey into a wondrous land whose

00:00:42,167 --> 00:00:43,877
See anything?

10
00:00:43,961 --> 00:00:46,296
The tops of some trees
have been knocked down.

11
00:00:46,380 --> 00:00:48,549
Looks like something
hit that pond.

12
00:00:48,590 --> 00:00:51,260
Whatever it is will be
under the ice till next spring.

13
00:00:51,343 --> 00:00:54,304
A meteor or something,
probably. I better check in.

14
00:00:54,388 --> 00:00:58,183
That woman who phoned said something
about calling out the national guard.

15
00:01:02,187 --> 00:01:06,817
This is 118-3a, 118-3a.
Reporting a check-out.

16
00:01:06,900 --> 00:01:08,819
(Man) Go ahead.

17
00:01:08,902 --> 00:01:12,823
Checking out a report on
an unidentified flying object.

18
00:01:12,906 --> 00:01:16,827
Supposed to have landed in
the area of hook's landing.

19
00:01:16,910 --> 00:01:20,747
Appears something cut
off the tops of some trees.

20
00:01:20,789 --> 00:01:24,835
Came down in the ice at traoy's
pond and we can't see it now.

21
00:01:24,918 --> 00:01:26,253
Bill?

22
00:01:26,295 --> 00:01:28,297
Hold on a second. Yeah?

23
00:01:28,380 --> 00:01:30,841
There are footprints up here.

24
00:01:30,924 --> 00:01:35,470
They come up from the pond and... looks
like they got out of whatever landed.

25
00:01:35,554 --> 00:01:40,517
Appears to be some evidence
that... we'll call you back.

26
00:01:40,601 --> 00:01:41,935
Wha t's it all about?

27
00:01:42,019 --> 00:01:43,437
We don't know, yet.

Ho w's tha t?

29
00:01:45,230 --> 00:01:47,858
We'll, uh, we'll call
you back in a little bit.

30
00:01:47,941 --> 00:01:51,278
All right, padgett, but there's some
talk of the bridge going out up there.

31
00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:55,115
When you can, you better takea lookand
be sure he's posted and blocked off.

32
00:01:55,198 --> 00:01:59,286
Enough ice jammed against
it to cool the Congo.

33
00:01:59,328 --> 00:02:01,788
Roger and out.

34
00:02:11,340 --> 00:02:15,886
No question about it.
Something left that pond

35
00:02:15,969 --> 00:02:17,846
and went over to the diner.

36
00:02:20,140 --> 00:02:23,060
Looks like a bus in
front of that diner.

37
00:02:23,143 --> 00:02:25,771
You don't suppose it came
out of that pond, do you?

38
00:02:25,854 --> 00:02:27,689
Very funny.

39
00:02:27,773 --> 00:02:30,400
Sorry. Let's leave the car
and follow these tracks.

40
00:02:30,484 --> 00:02:33,904
I want to be sure
they lead to the diner.

notating the arrival of an
unidentified flying object.

44
00:02:43,246 --> 00:02:47,209
Then the check-out you witnessed with
two state troopers verifying the event,

45
00:02:47,292 --> 00:02:51,004
but with nothing more enlightening
to add beyond evidence of some tracks

46
00:02:51,088 --> 00:02:53,507
leading across the
highway to a diner.

47
00:02:53,548 --> 00:02:56,218
You've heard of trying to
find a needle in a haystack?

48
00:02:56,301 --> 00:02:59,554
Well, stay with us now and you'll
be part of an investigating team

49
00:02:59,638 --> 00:03:04,059
whose mission is not to find that proverbial
needle. No, their task is even harder.

50
00:03:04,142 --> 00:03:06,687
They've got to find
a martian in a diner,

51
00:03:06,770 --> 00:03:10,399
and in just a moment you'll search
with them because you've just landed

00:03:52,232 --> 00:03:53,984
Whose bus is this out here?

56
00:03:54,067 --> 00:03:56,820
Tha t's mine, off/oer.
Wha t's the problem?

57
00:03:56,903 --> 00:03:59,906
The bridge up ahead has been
declared temporarily impassable.

58
00:03:59,990 --> 00:04:04,119
Ice floe stacked up against it. Another
pound of weight and it could be driftwood.

59
00:04:04,202 --> 00:04:07,122
That's rough. Can't
turn around and go back.

60
00:04:07,205 --> 00:04:10,125
There's a slide up at the
turnoff. Blocked the whole road.

61
00:04:10,208 --> 00:04:12,169
Looks like you're
kinda marooned.

62
00:04:12,252 --> 00:04:14,296
Till morning, anyway.

63
00:04:14,379 --> 00:04:17,632
Till morning? I've got
to be in Boston a t 9:00 A.M.

64
00:04:17,716 --> 00:04:19,968
(Driver) You better
start walking, mister,

65
00:04:20,051 --> 00:04:23,263
'cause that bus stays out
there until they fix the bridge.

66
00:04:23,346 --> 00:04:25,766
Either that or have them
drop some snowshoes.

67
00:04:25,849 --> 00:04:29,352
You might as well all get comfortable
and get a little hot food in you.

68
00:04:29,436 --> 00:04:32,481
Oh, that's just great.
That's fine, isn't it?

69
00:04:32,564 --> 00:04:35,192
Get comfortable and get
a little hot food in you.

70
00:04:35,275 --> 00:04:40,697
That's precious little consolation
for missing my meeting in Boston.

71
00:04:40,781 --> 00:04:43,784
That's a fine little bus
line you work for, isn't it?

72
00:04:43,825 --> 00:04:46,495
They care so much about
their schedules, don't they?

73
00:04:46,578 --> 00:04:49,164
I wouldn't be too
hard on them, mister.

74
00:04:49,247 --> 00:04:53,460
They have no control over the snow, Bridges,
the sides of hills that decide to come down.

75
00:04:53,543 --> 00:04:56,505
That's pretty much
out of their hands.

76
00:05:05,514 --> 00:05:07,808
What do you think?

77
00:05:07,849 --> 00:05:10,185
They were all on
the bus, weren't they?

78
00:05:10,268 --> 00:05:13,647
What's the trouble?
You looking for somebody?

79
00:05:15,607 --> 00:05:17,901
Driver, uh,

80
00:05:17,984 --> 00:05:20,904
you got a passenger manifest?

81
00:05:20,987 --> 00:05:25,909
Passenger manifest? What do you
think I got parked out there, a 707?

82
00:05:25,992 --> 00:05:29,996
Mister, that's a 14-year-old
bus and business is lousy.

83
00:05:30,038 --> 00:05:34,334
My boss would run rum across
the border if there was a profit in it.

84
00:05:34,417 --> 00:05:37,587
I don't ask
passengers their names.

85
00:05:37,671 --> 00:05:39,506
We kiss them gently
and help them in.

86
00:05:39,589 --> 00:05:42,175
We're that glad to have
them, with or without names.

87
00:05:42,259 --> 00:05:45,011
You know how many you had?

88
00:05:45,053 --> 00:05:48,765
Six. Unless one of them fell out
the window when we hit a bump.

89
00:05:48,849 --> 00:05:52,435
I p/cked up s/x and I'm
supposed to deliver six.

90
00:05:52,519 --> 00:05:55,605
Nobody fell out. Somebody
must have jumped in.

91
00:05:55,689 --> 00:05:59,192
There are seven here now.

92
00:06:03,363 --> 00:06:05,782
That's funny.

93
00:06:10,620 --> 00:06:13,039
I know I had six people.

94
00:06:16,167 --> 00:06:21,548
Thanks. Tell me, was there anybody
in here before the bus stopped?

95
00:06:21,631 --> 00:06:24,634
No, I haven't served anybody
since 11:00 this morning.

96
00:06:24,718 --> 00:06:26,887
I figured this whole
bunch got off the bus.

97
00:06:26,970 --> 00:06:29,764
We did. There was no one
in here when we came in.

98
00:06:29,848 --> 00:06:33,476
Then how do you account
for seven people?

99
00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:35,645
That one beats me.

100
00:06:38,315 --> 00:06:42,235
One of them didn't
get off the bus.

101
00:06:42,319 --> 00:06:44,404
Which one of you
wasn't on the bus?

102
00:06:44,487 --> 00:06:46,823
We were all on the bus.

103
00:06:51,161 --> 00:06:53,079
What kind of
interrogation is this?

104
00:06:53,163 --> 00:06:56,124
If we're going to be grilled,
I wanna talk to a lawyer.

105
00:06:56,207 --> 00:06:59,920
That's a good one! First he wants
snowshoes, then he wants a lawyer.

106
00:07:00,003 --> 00:07:03,298
I don't remember
seeing you on the bus.

107
00:07:03,381 --> 00:07:07,427
That's quite funny 'cause I don't
remember seeing you, neither.

108
00:07:07,469 --> 00:07:09,638
Makes one of us
a liar, don't it?

109
00:07:09,721 --> 00:07:12,349
This is preposterous.

110
00:07:12,432 --> 00:07:15,185
What difference does it make
who was on the bus and who wasn't,

111
00:07:15,268 --> 00:07:18,188
or whether there were s/x or
seven or a hundred and twenty?

112
00:07:18,271 --> 00:07:20,857
Is this a diner or
gestapo headquarters?

113
00:07:20,941 --> 00:07:23,693
Oh, now, take it easy, mister.

114
00:07:23,777 --> 00:07:26,613
What's it all about?

115
00:07:26,655 --> 00:07:29,866
Did you hear anything
flying over here tonight?

116
00:07:29,950 --> 00:07:33,370
Flying over here? No, I
haven't heard anything.

117
00:07:33,453 --> 00:07:35,664
We got a call
about two hours ago.

118
00:07:35,747 --> 00:07:38,792
A woman said she heard something
fly over and then come down.

119
00:07:38,875 --> 00:07:41,294
Fly over here?

120
00:07:41,336 --> 00:07:43,296
From where?

121
00:07:43,380 --> 00:07:47,550
From up there. An
un/dent/f/ed fl y/ng object.

122
00:07:47,634 --> 00:07:51,137
Unidentified flying object?

123
00:07:51,179 --> 00:07:53,556
Nothing's come down from
up there except snow.

124
00:07:53,640 --> 00:07:57,185
Tha t's all I've seen for
the past 14 hours. Snow.

125
00:07:57,268 --> 00:07:59,437
Where d/d she sa y /t came down?

126
00:07:59,521 --> 00:08:03,650
Close to here. Look, something
d/d land /n Tracy's pond.

127
00:08:03,692 --> 00:08:06,569
Left a trail of broken
branches before it hit.

128
00:08:06,653 --> 00:08:09,406
We found tracks
leading away from it.

129
00:08:09,489 --> 00:08:10,991
To where?

130
00:08:11,032 --> 00:08:13,159
To here.

131
00:08:13,243 --> 00:08:16,538
You mean something landed in
Tracy's pond and then came in here?

132
00:08:16,621 --> 00:08:21,418
That's crazy. Nothing's come in here since
11:00 this morning. Nothing, except...

133
00:08:21,501 --> 00:08:25,588
Except me and my
passengers. Me and s/x people.

134
00:08:25,672 --> 00:08:30,093
That means that
one person here...

135
00:08:34,014 --> 00:08:36,224
George? I don't like this.

136
00:08:36,307 --> 00:08:37,600
Easy, hon ey, easy.

137
00:08:37,684 --> 00:08:39,769
Let me get this straight.

138
00:08:39,853 --> 00:08:42,772
You're trying to tell us that
there's one person in here

139
00:08:42,856 --> 00:08:46,276
who landed in some kind of a saucer
or something and then came in here?

140
00:08:46,359 --> 00:08:49,863
Came in here with us?

141
00:08:49,946 --> 00:08:53,366
Well, that's just not
possible. We'd have seen them.

142
00:08:53,450 --> 00:08:56,870
Not necessar/I y.
It's snow/ng and dark.

143
00:08:56,953 --> 00:09:00,123
We climbed off of that bus with our
eyes closed to get out of the snow.

144
00:09:00,206 --> 00:09:03,084
Anyone could have come in with
us and we wouldn't have noticed.

145
00:09:03,168 --> 00:09:07,297
You were all on the bus together. You would
have known who the other passengers were.

146
00:09:07,380 --> 00:09:10,592
Thatdon't cutany/ce. Theyloaded
In the snow athook's land/ng.

147
00:09:10,675 --> 00:09:12,802
To tell you the truth,
I don't know who got on.

148
00:09:12,886 --> 00:09:15,889
She's just like a science
fiction, that's what she is.

149
00:09:15,930 --> 00:09:18,475
A regular ray bradbury.

150
00:09:18,558 --> 00:09:22,896
S/x humans and one
monster from outer space.

151
00:09:22,979 --> 00:09:28,068
You wouldn't happen to have an eye
in the back of your head, would you?

152
00:09:28,151 --> 00:09:31,112
I find you offensive,
you know that?

153
00:09:31,196 --> 00:09:33,239
What do you do now, officer?

154
00:09:33,323 --> 00:09:38,078
Look, lady, this isn't exactly
par for our courses, either.

155
00:09:38,119 --> 00:09:42,791
We go off on a lot of nutty
assignments but this one, wow.

156
00:09:42,874 --> 00:09:47,587
Well, I know how you begin.
You pair off the couples.

157
00:09:47,670 --> 00:09:51,007
Since it's just one person
who doesn't belong here, you,

158
00:09:51,091 --> 00:09:52,509
you eliminate the couples.

159
00:09:52,592 --> 00:09:56,012
We're exonerated. Cross us off.

160
00:09:56,096 --> 00:09:58,014
We're two of the humans.

161
00:09:58,098 --> 00:10:02,268
Us, too. My wife and
/. We're /n the clear.

162
00:10:04,604 --> 00:10:06,689
What's the matter?

163
00:10:06,773 --> 00:10:11,361
I-I could have sworn you
had a mole on your chin.

164
00:10:11,444 --> 00:10:16,366
A mole on my chin? Connie,
I've never had a mole on my chin.

165
00:10:16,449 --> 00:10:20,286
I can tell you what's going to happen.
We're all going to get so panicky

166
00:10:20,370 --> 00:10:24,165
that everyone will start picking up
invisible clues from everybody else.

167
00:10:24,249 --> 00:10:26,459
This is nonsense.

168
00:10:26,543 --> 00:10:30,213
Of course it's nonsense if a husband
and wife suddenly start wondering

169
00:10:30,296 --> 00:10:34,342
whether the husband is really
the husband and the wife is really...

170
00:10:34,425 --> 00:10:37,846
Now, wait a minute.

171
00:10:37,929 --> 00:10:41,975
I think 23 years is long enough for a
woman to know who she's married to.

172
00:10:42,058 --> 00:10:44,144
So, I'll thank you
to stop looking at me

173
00:10:44,227 --> 00:10:47,730
as if I'd just put on this
face as part of a costume.

the most suspicious of the bunch.

Go back there and lock it.

182
00:11:12,255 --> 00:11:15,592
It's already locked. If that certain
somebody really is from outer space,

183

the wall anyway.

prolonged practical joke?

Well, no, as a matter
of fact, I don't.

I left my wallet...

198
00:12:09,729 --> 00:12:12,398
I left it in my suitcase.

199
00:12:12,482 --> 00:12:14,734
It was shipped on ahead.

200

206
00:12:31,084 --> 00:12:34,504
She's the only one I noticed.

207
00:12:34,587 --> 00:12:36,297
Well, thank you.

208
00:12:36,381 --> 00:12:38,758
But who noticed him?

209
00:12:43,096 --> 00:12:46,474
How do we know you're the
same one driving the bus, huh?

210
00:12:46,557 --> 00:12:49,269
Ain't nobody been exonerated,
yet. That's for sure.

211
00:12:49,352 --> 00:12:51,646
Look, let's cut this
farce out right now.

212
00:12:51,729 --> 00:12:54,440
We'll all show our
identifications and put a stop to it.

213
00:12:54,482 --> 00:12:56,192
The whole thing's ridiculous.

214
00:12:56,276 --> 00:12:59,028
Then how do you explain
the extra person in here?

215
00:12:59,112 --> 00:13:01,197
Yes, how about that?

216
00:13:02,949 --> 00:13:05,952
Very simple.
The driver's mistaken.

217
00:13:06,035 --> 00:13:09,831
Seven people got on the bus and
he thought there were only six.

218
00:13:11,207 --> 00:13:13,293
Is that possible?

219
00:13:13,376 --> 00:13:17,547
Not a chance in the world. I
counted heads before we took off.

the jukebox starting like that?

kind of magician?

338
00:21:34,960 --> 00:21:37,963
Who, me? Oh, hardly.

339
00:21:41,383 --> 00:21:46,388
Now, uh, before you,
uh, faint dead away,

340
00:21:46,472 --> 00:21:49,892
I ought to explain that
the name isn't really Ross.

341
00:21:51,644 --> 00:21:55,064
And, uh, I wasn't
really going to Boston.

342
00:21:55,147 --> 00:21:59,235
No, / was sent as a
kind of advance scout.

343
00:21:59,318 --> 00:22:03,531
You know, these, uh,
cigarettes, do you call them?

344
00:22:03,614 --> 00:22:07,493
They taste wonderful. We
haven't got a thing like this on Mars.

345
00:22:07,576 --> 00:22:10,079
Tha t's inc/dentall y
where / come from.

346
00:22:10,162 --> 00:22:13,165
We're beginning to colonize.

347
00:22:13,249 --> 00:22:16,877
My friends will be
arriving very shortly.

348
00:22:16,961 --> 00:22:20,506
I think they're going to
like it here. It's a lovely area.

349
00:22:20,589 --> 00:22:24,468
So, so remote, so pleasant,

350
00:22:24,552 --> 00:22:26,846
so off the beaten track.

351
00:22:26,929 --> 00:22:31,559
Just the perfect spot for a
colony, don't you think, Mr. Haley?

352
00:22:31,642 --> 00:22:36,897
While we're waiting, how about
a little what you call music?

353
00:22:36,981 --> 00:22:41,402
I don't mind. I have to do
a little waiting myself.

354
00:22:41,485 --> 00:22:46,115
You see, Mr. Ross,
my name isn't Haley.

355
00:22:46,198 --> 00:22:50,703
And I do agree with you. This is an
extraordinary place to colonize.

356
00:22:50,786 --> 00:22:52,955
We folks on Venus
had the same idea.

357
00:22:53,038 --> 00:22:56,208
We got it several years ago.

358
00:22:56,250 --> 00:22:58,919
And I think I really
ought to tell you now

359
00:22:59,003 --> 00:23:01,547
that your friends
are not coming.

360
00:23:01,589 --> 00:23:03,465
They've been intercepted.

361
00:23:03,549 --> 00:23:06,135
Oh, a colony is coming.

362
00:23:06,218 --> 00:23:09,138
But it's from Venus.

363
00:23:09,221 --> 00:23:12,308
And if you're still alive,

364
00:23:12,391 --> 00:23:15,728
I think you'll see
how we differ.

365
00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:25,571
And I agree with you
about what they call music.

366
00:23:25,613 --> 00:23:27,823
Why don't you play some?

367
00:23:27,907 --> 00:23:33,078
[Laughs]

368
00:23:33,162 --> 00:23:37,833
(Narrator) Inc/dent on a small
island, to be bel/eved or d/sbel/eved.

369
00:23:37,917 --> 00:23:40,920
However, /fa sour-faced
dandy named Ross

370
00:23:41,003 --> 00:23:43,839
or a big, good-na tured
counterman who handles a spa tula

371
00:23:43,923 --> 00:23:46,091
as if he'd been born
w/th one in his mouth,

372
00:23:46,175 --> 00:23:49,345
/f e/ther of these two ent/t/es
walk onto your premises,

373
00:23:49,428 --> 00:23:51,972
you better hold the/r
hands, all three of them,

374
00:23:52,056 --> 00:23:55,267
or check the color of
their eyes, all three of them.

375
00:23:55,351 --> 00:24:00,022
The gentlemen /n quest/on m/ght
try to pull you into the tw/I/ght zone.

376
00:24:03,901 --> 00:24:06,654
(Male presenter) Rod serl/ng,
crea Tor of the twilight zone

377
00:24:06,737 --> 00:24:11,659
w/ll tell you about next week's storyafter
th/s word from our al terna te sponsor.

378
00:24:11,742 --> 00:24:13,869
And now, Mr. Serl/ng.

379
00:24:13,953 --> 00:24:17,164
Mr. Burgess Meredith is no
stranger to the tw/I/ght zone,

380
00:24:17,247 --> 00:24:20,793
but his role in next week's
story is a unique one, even for him.

381
00:24:20,876 --> 00:24:23,796
The time will be the future,
the place just about anywhere

382
00:24:23,879 --> 00:24:26,674
where men have been taken
over by a machine state.

383
00:24:26,757 --> 00:24:28,801
Our story is called
the obsolete man.

384
00:24:28,842 --> 00:24:30,844
It may chill, it may provoke,

385
00:24:30,928 --> 00:24:33,180
but we're rather certain
it will leave a Mark.

386
00:24:33,263 --> 00:24:36,850
Next week on the tw/I/ght
zone, the obsolete man.

387
00:24:38,686 --> 00:24:42,314
[Eerie music]

388
