00:11:34,611 --> 00:11:36,905
Amen, brother.
[Melancholy music]

183
00:11:36,988 --> 00:11:38,573
I appreciate your coming,

184
00:11:38,656 --> 00:11:40,158
even though he didn't bel ong

185
00:11:40,241 --> 00:11:41,826
to the church.

186
00:11:41,910 --> 00:11:43,870
I just never could
get h/m to go.

187
00:11:43,953 --> 00:11:46,289
(Re verend) I rea I ize
bro ther Simpson

188
00:11:46,372 --> 00:11:47,832
wasn't a religious man,

189
00:11:47,916 --> 00:11:49,918
but I figure he's still entitled

190
00:11:50,001 --> 00:11:51,377
to a Christian burial.

191
00:11:51,461 --> 00:11:53,713
Now, just...
Just hold everything.

192
00:11:53,796 --> 00:11:56,883
Anybody's going to give
brother Simpson a burial

193
00:11:56,966 --> 00:11:59,969
you'd better ask brother
Simpson how he feels about it.

194
00:12:00,053 --> 00:12:02,931
I just been sitting here,

195
00:12:03,014 --> 00:12:07,644
trying to figure it out.

196
00:12:07,727 --> 00:12:10,021
It was just last night.

197
00:12:10,104 --> 00:12:13,900
He was sitting there
at the supper table.

198
00:12:13,983 --> 00:12:17,862
I begged him not to go.

199
00:12:17,946 --> 00:12:20,490
There's been omens.

200
00:12:20,573 --> 00:12:24,327
I've seen signs.

201
00:12:24,410 --> 00:12:25,828
But he went.

202
00:12:25,912 --> 00:12:29,499
The lord works
in mysterious ways.

203
00:12:29,582 --> 00:12:31,834
Rachel, listen to me.

204
00:12:31,918 --> 00:12:35,171
There's been a misunderstanding.

205
00:12:38,508 --> 00:12:39,842
(Man) Miss ra Chel,

206
00:12:39,926 --> 00:12:44,097
if you're ready, ma'am.

207
00:12:44,180 --> 00:12:45,598
Well, he's in there.

208
00:12:56,150 --> 00:12:57,277
Oh!

209
00:12:57,360 --> 00:13:00,905
[Weeping]

210
00:13:00,989 --> 00:13:03,199
Don't take on, old woman.

211
00:13:03,283 --> 00:13:05,702
It's just a dream.

212
00:13:05,785 --> 00:13:08,288
We'll wake up in a little

213
00:13:08,371 --> 00:13:12,292
and everything'll be
like it ought to be.

214
00:13:14,002 --> 00:13:19,090
What you old boys got in there?

215
00:13:19,173 --> 00:13:22,468
(Hyder) What you old
boys taking out of there?

216
00:13:22,552 --> 00:13:23,886
Oh!

217
00:13:23,970 --> 00:13:26,139
(Hyder) Who's in that box?

218
00:13:26,222 --> 00:13:30,101
[Melancholy music]

219
00:13:47,744 --> 00:13:50,621
[Melancholy music]

220
00:14:05,678 --> 00:14:07,555
We'll find out
what all this is about

221
00:14:07,638 --> 00:14:09,432
in a minute or two, rip.

222
00:14:09,515 --> 00:14:13,978
The graveyard's just over
the top of the hill there.

223
00:14:45,718 --> 00:14:50,139
Now, who in the tarnation
built this fence up here?

224
00:14:50,223 --> 00:14:53,851
Rip, we must have
taken a wrong turn.

225
00:14:53,935 --> 00:14:59,399
I don't memorize
ever seeing this fence before.

226
00:14:59,482 --> 00:15:02,693
Well, we're bound
to come out somewhere.

227
00:15:19,085 --> 00:15:20,336
Hello!

228
00:15:20,420 --> 00:15:24,048
Anybody home in there?

229
00:15:24,132 --> 00:15:25,466
Howdy, neighbor.

230
00:15:25,550 --> 00:15:27,093
Howdy.

231
00:15:27,176 --> 00:15:29,512
Iwasn't expecting
nobody this morning.

232
00:15:29,595 --> 00:15:32,265
Don't want to put you
to no trouble, friend,

233
00:15:32,348 --> 00:15:34,392
but it seems like I lost my way.

234
00:15:34,475 --> 00:15:36,769
That's what everybody
says at first.

235
00:15:36,853 --> 00:15:38,729
Now, what's your name, friend?

236
00:15:38,813 --> 00:15:40,982
S/mpson... h yder Simpson.
[Rip whimpers]

237
00:15:41,065 --> 00:15:42,942
I belong to that
bunch of Simpsons

238
00:15:42,984 --> 00:15:45,319
lives over on whale's mountain.

239
00:15:45,403 --> 00:15:47,113
Rip and me here... [rip barks]

240
00:15:47,196 --> 00:15:49,699
We never ha ve tra veled
this far before.

241
00:15:49,782 --> 00:15:51,451
Never have traveled so far

242
00:15:51,534 --> 00:15:54,287
we couldn't see the
top of whale's mountain.

243
00:15:54,370 --> 00:15:56,247
How old are you,
neighbor Simpson?

244
00:15:56,330 --> 00:15:58,416
Well, sir, I been
walking the earth

245
00:15:58,499 --> 00:16:00,460
for something like 70 year now.

246
00:16:00,501 --> 00:16:03,129
Arrived at the gate, uh, 10:45.

247
00:16:05,173 --> 00:16:06,966
I know it's none of my business,

248
00:16:07,049 --> 00:16:09,469
but would you tell me
what you're writing down?

249
00:16:09,552 --> 00:16:11,387
One more thing,
neighbor Simpson.

250
00:16:11,471 --> 00:16:13,806
How'd you die?

251
00:16:13,890 --> 00:16:17,310
I was born
with a cheap set of ears.

252
00:16:17,393 --> 00:16:19,061
I'm not sure
I heard you rightly.

253
00:16:19,145 --> 00:16:20,771
I said, "how did you die?"

254
00:16:20,855 --> 00:16:22,398
Who claims I'm dead?

255
00:16:22,482 --> 00:16:25,568
You wouldn't be here
if you wasn't dead.

256
00:16:25,651 --> 00:16:28,488
Man, that's solid
flesh and bone there.

257
00:16:28,571 --> 00:16:30,323
You feel that.

258
00:16:30,406 --> 00:16:32,950
Think back, neighbor.
What did you do last night?

259
00:16:33,034 --> 00:16:36,662
Well, sir, I'll tell you
exactly what I done.

260
00:16:36,746 --> 00:16:39,665
Me and rip, we left the house
long about suppertime,

261
00:16:39,749 --> 00:16:42,543
and rip, he p/cked up

262
00:16:42,627 --> 00:16:44,337
a coon tra/I r/ghtaway,

263
00:16:44,420 --> 00:16:47,507
and like a coon will,
it headed for the water

264
00:16:47,590 --> 00:16:50,551
and rip didn't do nothing
but go in after him.

265
00:16:50,635 --> 00:16:52,887
About that t/me, I
got there, [rip whining]

266
00:16:52,970 --> 00:16:57,475
And I was running out
on this log and I...

267
00:17:06,984 --> 00:17:09,779
Hey, friend, what's
on the other side

268
00:17:09,862 --> 00:17:11,280
of that gate there?

269
00:17:11,364 --> 00:17:13,074
Well, that pasture
right up there

270
00:17:13,157 --> 00:17:14,951
they call the El ys/an field.

271
00:17:15,034 --> 00:17:17,370
Cross thatand you come
to the golden street

272
00:17:17,453 --> 00:17:19,747
that takes you right
to the celestial palace

273
00:17:19,830 --> 00:17:22,166
where the old master
has his headquarters.

274
00:17:22,250 --> 00:17:24,919
Then I take you would
aim to be St. Peter.

275
00:17:25,002 --> 00:17:26,712
I keep the gate, that's a fact.

276
00:17:26,796 --> 00:17:29,757
Well, I'm mighty proud
to have met up with you.

277
00:17:29,840 --> 00:17:34,053
Just as proud to have you here.

278
00:17:34,136 --> 00:17:36,055
I always thought

279
00:17:36,138 --> 00:17:39,141
there was a lot of singing
and dancing in heaven.

280
00:17:39,225 --> 00:17:40,893
How come I don't hear no music?

281
00:17:40,977 --> 00:17:42,853
'Cause you're on the outside.

282
00:17:42,937 --> 00:17:45,523
Once inside, you'll hear
your favorite hymn.

283
00:17:45,606 --> 00:17:49,235
Well, I don't care much
for hymn singing.

284
00:17:49,318 --> 00:17:51,153
I favor guitar music myself.

285
00:17:51,237 --> 00:17:53,656
Don't stand out here
in the cold, cold world.

286
00:17:53,739 --> 00:17:55,116
Reap you r h eaven ly reward.

287
00:17:55,199 --> 00:17:56,742
Come on, rip. [Rip growling]

288
00:17:56,784 --> 00:17:58,244
Hold on, neighbor.

289
00:17:58,327 --> 00:17:59,745
You can't take that dog in.

290
00:17:59,829 --> 00:18:01,581
There ain't no fleas
on that dog.

291
00:18:01,664 --> 00:18:02,873
He can't come in.

292
00:18:02,957 --> 00:18:04,166
How come?

293
00:18:04,250 --> 00:18:06,085
This is folks' hea ven.

294
00:18:06,168 --> 00:18:08,879
There's a place we can
put him, though, up the road.

295
00:18:08,963 --> 00:18:11,048
You just tie him to the fence,

296
00:18:11,132 --> 00:18:12,967
and I'll walk him up later on.

297
00:18:13,050 --> 00:18:14,302
Come on, rip.

298
00:18:14,385 --> 00:18:15,886
Hold on, neighbor Simpson.

299
00:18:15,970 --> 00:18:17,638
Where do you think you're going?

300
00:18:17,722 --> 00:18:20,808
Thank you, but that
ain't no place for me.

301
00:18:20,891 --> 00:18:22,560
Why not?

302
00:18:22,643 --> 00:18:25,521
Well, any place that's
too highfalutin for rip

303
00:18:25,605 --> 00:18:27,690
is too fancy for me.

304
00:18:27,773 --> 00:18:30,151
How thoroughbred
does a dog have to be

305
00:18:30,234 --> 00:18:32,194
before you let him
in there, anyway?

306
00:18:32,278 --> 00:18:34,196
Ain't no dogs allowed at all.

307
00:18:34,280 --> 00:18:37,158
What kind of outfit you're
running don't allow no dogs?

308
00:18:37,241 --> 00:18:39,744
They got that special
place for dogs up the road.

309
00:18:39,827 --> 00:18:41,996
Me and rip will go on
down there, then.

310
00:18:42,079 --> 00:18:43,331
You won't get in.

311
00:18:43,414 --> 00:18:45,249
The dog, maybe, but not you.

312
00:18:45,333 --> 00:18:49,211
What kind of heaven
would it be with just dogs?

313
00:18:49,295 --> 00:18:51,297
A dog's got a right
to have a man around

314
00:18:51,380 --> 00:18:54,675
just the same as a man's got
a right to have a dog around,

315
00:18:54,759 --> 00:18:56,594
if he wants to be happy.

316
00:18:56,677 --> 00:18:59,180
Neighbor, let me make you
a little proposition.

317
00:18:59,263 --> 00:19:01,474
Why don't you go on
in the gate, and later on,

318
00:19:01,515 --> 00:19:03,434
I'll slip the dog
through the fence.

319
00:19:03,517 --> 00:19:05,603
It's breaking the rules,
but I'll do it.

320
00:19:05,686 --> 00:19:08,314
Friend Peter,
if I go in that front gate,

321
00:19:08,397 --> 00:19:10,483
rip's going
in that front gate likewise.

322
00:19:10,566 --> 00:19:13,402
I don't want him to get to
feeling that he ain't welcome.

323
00:19:13,486 --> 00:19:15,279
I got another idea.

324
00:19:15,363 --> 00:19:17,823
What are you doing
there, mister? [Rip growling]

325
00:19:17,907 --> 00:19:19,283
I'll hold on to your dog

326
00:19:19,367 --> 00:19:20,993
and let you see how you like it.

327
00:19:21,077 --> 00:19:24,664
I don't have to go inside
to make up my mind.

328
00:19:24,747 --> 00:19:27,375
Let me ask you
a practical question.

329
00:19:27,458 --> 00:19:30,920
What kind of coon hunting
would I have in there without rip?

330
00:19:31,003 --> 00:19:33,506
Man, they don't allow
no coon hunting.

331
00:19:33,589 --> 00:19:36,008
Oh, you don't say.
[Rip growling]

332
00:19:36,092 --> 00:19:37,843
Where do you think you're going?

333
00:19:37,927 --> 00:19:39,595
Me and rip's going somewhere.

334
00:19:39,679 --> 00:19:41,389
There ain't no place else to go.

335
00:19:41,472 --> 00:19:43,349
We'll go wherever
that road takes us.

336
00:19:43,432 --> 00:19:45,142
Oh, that road
don't lead nowhere.

337
00:19:45,226 --> 00:19:46,852
This is eternity road.

338
00:19:46,936 --> 00:19:49,855
It just keeps on,
never stops, leads nowhere.

339
00:19:49,939 --> 00:19:52,233
Me and rip'll do all right.

340
00:19:52,316 --> 00:19:55,361
Neighbor, this is a right
serious step you're taking.

341
00:19:55,444 --> 00:19:56,946
I'd say the best thing

342
00:19:57,029 --> 00:19:58,948
is to sit out there
and think it over.

343
00:19:59,031 --> 00:20:02,284
You've got all eternity
to make up your mind.

344
00:20:02,368 --> 00:20:03,994
Good day to you, sir.

345
00:20:04,078 --> 00:20:06,163
If you change your
mind, just let me know.

346
00:20:06,247 --> 00:20:08,374
Much obliged. I'll do that.

347
00:20:08,457 --> 00:20:10,501
[Melancholy harmonica music]

348
00:20:17,717 --> 00:20:20,219
[Birds chirping]

349
00:20:29,687 --> 00:20:31,522
[Sighs]

350
00:20:34,900 --> 00:20:37,445
Eternity's a powerful
long spell to go

351
00:20:37,528 --> 00:20:40,072
without a coon hunt,
ain't it, rip?

352
00:20:40,156 --> 00:20:43,242
Don't you go off your feed
or nothing over this thing.

353
00:20:43,325 --> 00:20:46,787
Wouldn't surprise me none
if I don't sneak in there

354
00:20:46,871 --> 00:20:48,998
and talk to the judge,
or somebody.

355
00:20:49,081 --> 00:20:51,125
Might be able to get you in.

356
00:20:51,208 --> 00:20:56,881
Wonder what kind of a tea
party they keep in there, anyways.

357
00:20:56,964 --> 00:20:59,967
Must be city folks, mostly.

358
00:21:00,050 --> 00:21:03,971
They'd be the ones most likely
to outlaw coon hunting.

359
00:21:04,054 --> 00:21:05,222
Let them sit in there

360
00:21:05,306 --> 00:21:06,724
tootin' on their harps

361
00:21:06,807 --> 00:21:10,603
or whatever they do
for relaxation,

362
00:21:10,644 --> 00:21:13,606
me and you stays together.

363
00:21:13,689 --> 00:21:16,942
Just like we was when we
was traveling down below.

364
00:21:20,321 --> 00:21:21,864
Least we ain't the onl y ones

365
00:21:21,947 --> 00:21:23,365
wander/ng around

366
00:21:23,449 --> 00:21:26,702
by ourselves
on the eternity road.

367
00:21:26,786 --> 00:21:28,204
Howdy, son.

368
00:21:28,287 --> 00:21:29,622
Howdy.

369
00:21:32,166 --> 00:21:34,794
I'm looking
for a Mr. Hyder Simpson

370
00:21:34,877 --> 00:21:36,545
and a hound dog name of rip.

371
00:21:36,629 --> 00:21:38,005
Well, that's us.

372
00:21:38,088 --> 00:21:39,924
Well, I figured it was.

373
00:21:40,007 --> 00:21:42,551
Well, if you and rip's all set,

374
00:21:42,635 --> 00:21:44,386
we might as well mosey along.

375
00:21:44,470 --> 00:21:45,554
Mosey along where?

376
00:21:45,638 --> 00:21:47,223
Heaven, Mr. Simpson.

377
00:21:47,306 --> 00:21:50,976
Well, now, like I told
that other fellow,

378
00:21:51,018 --> 00:21:53,562
I ain't going to set foot
in heaven without rip.

379
00:21:53,646 --> 00:21:56,690
You didn't get messed up
with nobody in there, did you?

380
00:21:56,774 --> 00:21:58,484
That fellow at the gate.

381
00:21:58,567 --> 00:22:00,986
He wouldn't let rip in,
so I didn't go.

382
00:22:01,070 --> 00:22:03,322
Son,

383
00:22:03,405 --> 00:22:05,491
that'd be a hell of a place
without rip.

384
00:22:05,574 --> 00:22:06,992
Mr. Simpson,

385
00:22:07,076 --> 00:22:08,452
you ain't far wrong.

386
00:22:08,536 --> 00:22:11,163
That is hell.

387
00:22:11,247 --> 00:22:13,457
Heaven's up yonder apiece.

388
00:22:13,541 --> 00:22:16,085
Well, I'll be jiggered.

389
00:22:16,168 --> 00:22:17,419
Now, how come that fellow

390
00:22:17,503 --> 00:22:19,004
would want to lie to me?

391
00:22:19,088 --> 00:22:21,674
Well, they don't never give up.

392
00:22:21,715 --> 00:22:23,592
Always trying to get
folks in there

393
00:22:23,676 --> 00:22:25,219
right down to the last minute.

394
00:22:25,302 --> 00:22:27,054
Well, what reason
would they have

395
00:22:27,137 --> 00:22:28,764
for wanting to keep rip out?

396
00:22:28,848 --> 00:22:31,851
They was a-feared
rip would have warned you.

397
00:22:31,934 --> 00:22:35,396
And he would have, time he
got a whiff of that brimstone.

398
00:22:35,479 --> 00:22:37,523
You see, Mr. Simpson,

399
00:22:37,606 --> 00:22:42,695
a man... well, he'll walk right
into hell with both eyes open,

400
00:22:42,778 --> 00:22:45,823
but even the devil
can't fool a dog.

401
00:22:45,906 --> 00:22:47,575
[Melancholy harmonica music]

402
00:22:47,658 --> 00:22:49,660
You wouldn't be St. Peter,
would you?

403
00:22:49,743 --> 00:22:53,998
Oh, no, no, I... I'm just
a regular angel here.

404
00:22:54,081 --> 00:22:56,542
Well, where's your wings, son?

405
00:22:56,625 --> 00:23:00,045
Shucks, I don't use
them half the time.

406
00:23:00,129 --> 00:23:02,423
I appreciate walking myself.

407
00:23:02,506 --> 00:23:04,550
You, uh...

408
00:23:04,633 --> 00:23:07,303
About ready to go, Mr. Simpson?

409
00:23:07,386 --> 00:23:09,388
Uh... uh, rip.

410
00:23:12,224 --> 00:23:14,560
How's the coon
hunting up here, boy?

411
00:23:14,643 --> 00:23:16,395
Oh, just fine, Mr. Simpson.

412
00:23:16,478 --> 00:23:17,771
There's one tonight

413
00:23:17,855 --> 00:23:19,398
right after the square dance.

414
00:23:19,481 --> 00:23:20,858
Want to come along?

415
00:23:20,941 --> 00:23:23,569
Wouldn't miss it for the world.

416
00:23:23,611 --> 00:23:26,572
Welcome to heaven, Mr. Simpson.

417
00:23:26,614 --> 00:23:30,284
Thank you, son. [Birds chirping]

418
00:23:30,367 --> 00:23:33,579
Right proud to be here.

419
00:23:36,206 --> 00:23:38,292
Uh, Rachel, that's my old woman.

420
00:23:38,375 --> 00:23:40,085
She won't have any trouble

421
00:23:40,169 --> 00:23:42,630
getting past that fellow
up the road, will she?

422
00:23:42,713 --> 00:23:45,591
Rachel? No, not her.

423
00:23:45,674 --> 00:23:47,927
And she'll be along
directly, too, I'm told.

424
00:23:48,010 --> 00:23:50,512
Well, glad to hear it.

425
00:23:50,596 --> 00:23:53,891
Come along, rip.

426
00:23:53,974 --> 00:23:57,561
(Narrator) Tra velers to unknown
regions would be well advised

427
00:23:57,645 --> 00:23:59,605
to take along the fam/I ydog.

428
00:23:59,688 --> 00:24:03,275
He could just sa ve you
from entering the wrong ga te.

429
00:24:03,317 --> 00:24:05,611
A t least,
it happened tha t way once

430
00:24:05,694 --> 00:24:10,032
ina mounta/nous area
of the twilight zone.

And now, Mr. Serl/ng.

Next week we offer you
a Hollywood television cowboy

436
00:24:26,298 --> 00:24:29,385
who takes in several bills a
week for killing off bad men.

437
00:24:29,468 --> 00:24:32,221
Mr. Larry blyden portrays
one of these phony balonies

438
00:24:32,304 --> 00:24:33,931
who always wins in the end.

439
00:24:34,014 --> 00:24:36,225
But in this little item
he draws from the hip

440
00:24:36,308 --> 00:24:39,436
and realizes his opponent is
smack-dab out of this world.

441
00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:42,481
We invite your attention to
