1
00:00:06,965 --> 00:00:10,260
You unlock this door
with the k e y of ima Gina t/on.

2
00:00:10,344 --> 00:00:12,513
Beyond it is another dimension.

3
00:00:12,554 --> 00:00:14,681
A dimension of sound.

4
00:00:14,723 --> 00:00:18,602
A dimension of sight.
A dimension of mind.

5
00:00:18,685 --> 00:00:21,522
You're moving into a land of
both shadowand substance,

6
00:00:21,605 --> 00:00:23,482
of things and ideas.

7
00:00:23,565 --> 00:00:27,069
You've just crossed over
into the twilight zone.

8
00:00:47,172 --> 00:00:50,092
Uncle Simon?

9
00:00:50,175 --> 00:00:54,888
Uncle Simon, do you want
your hot chocolate upstairs?

10
00:00:56,557 --> 00:00:59,560
Uncle Simon, do you hear me?

11
00:00:59,601 --> 00:01:04,273
Do you want your hot
chooola te upsta/rs?

12
00:01:04,356 --> 00:01:06,233
Uncle Simon?

13
00:01:06,275 --> 00:01:09,069
Garbage-h ead!

14
00:01:09,152 --> 00:01:11,488
I'm right behind you.
There's no need to yell.

15
00:01:11,572 --> 00:01:14,575
Well, my wilting blossom,

16
00:01:14,616 --> 00:01:16,910
what's on your mind?

17
00:01:19,079 --> 00:01:21,331
Your hot chocolate is ready.

18
00:01:21,415 --> 00:01:23,834
You told me you were
going to take a nap.

19
00:01:23,917 --> 00:01:26,670
Sometime try extending
yourself, uncle,

20
00:01:26,753 --> 00:01:30,007
just sufficiently to let me
know where you are on occasion.

21
00:01:30,090 --> 00:01:34,011
Well, now, Barbara, my love, I think
I can narrow that down for you.

22
00:01:34,094 --> 00:01:36,555
If I'm not upstairs in my
bedroom or in the study,

23
00:01:36,638 --> 00:01:38,640
then I'm downstairs
in my laboratory.

24
00:01:38,724 --> 00:01:41,852
In any case, wherever I am,
you can bring the hot chocolate.

25
00:01:41,935 --> 00:01:43,854
And if I'm not,

26
00:01:45,731 --> 00:01:47,774
it means I've dropped
dead en route,

27
00:01:47,816 --> 00:01:50,611
and you can bring me a bottle
of formaldehyde and a Rose.

28
00:01:50,652 --> 00:01:53,363
You're such a humorist, uncle.

29
00:01:53,447 --> 00:01:55,616
You should have
gone into burlesque.

30
00:01:55,657 --> 00:01:59,953
Well, I dare say I'd have been
more comfortable there than you.

31
00:02:00,037 --> 00:02:02,372
You ever dance, Barbara?

32
00:02:02,456 --> 00:02:04,374
I'm very busy, uncle Simon.

33
00:02:04,458 --> 00:02:09,046
You ever cut loose and
dance a fast Charleston?

34
00:02:09,129 --> 00:02:12,049
No, most unlikely,
most unlikely.

35
00:02:12,132 --> 00:02:15,385
You know, you're the only
woman I know who looks

36
00:02:15,469 --> 00:02:18,639
as if underneath her
clothes, she wore clothes.

37
00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:23,644
You have all the grace and
femininity of a high-button shoe.

38
00:02:23,727 --> 00:02:25,562
And you, uncle Simon...

39
00:02:25,646 --> 00:02:29,691
Go on. Let's see if you can
compensate for the fact

40
00:02:29,775 --> 00:02:34,071
that you're a passionless
vegetable by speaking your mind.

41
00:02:34,154 --> 00:02:37,199
If I'm a passionless vegetable,

42
00:02:37,282 --> 00:02:40,661
it's because my gardener
is an ancient relic

43
00:02:40,702 --> 00:02:43,538
made out of dry skin
and ice water.

44
00:02:43,622 --> 00:02:46,917
Not bad, not bad, not bad.

45
00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:50,587
You know, if I prod you hard enough,
you can scramble up to the occasion,

46
00:02:50,671 --> 00:02:53,048
or at least part way.

47
00:02:53,131 --> 00:02:57,511
Well, my angular turnip,
what else is new with you?

48
00:02:57,552 --> 00:03:00,347
You say you made some
hot chocolate today, hm?

49
00:03:00,389 --> 00:03:04,935
Any other soul-st/rr/ng projects
tha t you applied yourself to?

50
00:03:05,018 --> 00:03:09,356
I see that you tried to open the
drapes in the bedroom and in the hall.

51
00:03:09,398 --> 00:03:11,358
I see that you closed them.

52
00:03:11,441 --> 00:03:14,444
You asked me what I had
done today, and I'm telling you.

53
00:03:14,528 --> 00:03:16,697
I cleaned up after you.

54
00:03:16,738 --> 00:03:21,743
I tried to clear away some of
the debris you always leave behind.

55
00:03:21,827 --> 00:03:24,871
And what is this
contraption, hm?

56
00:03:24,955 --> 00:03:27,207
A room-straightener, perhaps?

57
00:03:27,290 --> 00:03:30,877
Tell me, uncle scientist,
where does this belong?

58
00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:33,755
Put it back where it was.

59
00:03:33,839 --> 00:03:36,967
You've been told a thousand
times not to disturb things.

60
00:03:37,050 --> 00:03:40,887
I could've put it away
when I swept out the cellar,

61
00:03:40,929 --> 00:03:45,100
but as usual, your laboratory
door was securely bolted.

62
00:03:45,183 --> 00:03:49,062
Some day I would like to find out what
it is you putter around with down there.

63
00:03:49,104 --> 00:03:53,650
Yeah, I'll bet you
would, and someday you shall.

64
00:03:53,734 --> 00:03:57,237
Someday you will be owner
of this decaying barn,

65
00:03:57,320 --> 00:03:59,573
and then you
can do as you please.

66
00:03:59,614 --> 00:04:03,744
Until then, keep your spindle-shanked
carcass out of my laboratory,

67
00:04:03,785 --> 00:04:07,664
and your long thin probing
nose out of my business.

68
00:04:07,748 --> 00:04:10,125
Now, go and get me
some hot chocolate,

69
00:04:10,208 --> 00:04:13,336
and use the English
bone China cup.

70
00:04:13,420 --> 00:04:16,715
If it's not hot enough,
I'll throw it on the floor.

71
00:04:20,510 --> 00:04:22,262
Barbara.

72
00:04:22,345 --> 00:04:24,806
Question.

73
00:04:24,890 --> 00:04:26,141
Go on.

74
00:04:26,224 --> 00:04:28,393
Why do you stay here?

75
00:04:30,604 --> 00:04:33,273
I was under the impression
that I was needed.

76
00:04:33,356 --> 00:04:37,819
You are. That explains
why I keep you here.

77
00:04:37,903 --> 00:04:42,115
But it doesn't even remotely
suggest why you stay.

78
00:04:42,157 --> 00:04:44,534
You would like me to be
quite honest, I presume?

79
00:04:44,618 --> 00:04:48,288
Indeed. You may be
short on beauty,

80
00:04:48,371 --> 00:04:51,500
but a lack of candor has never
been one of your deficiencies.

81
00:04:51,583 --> 00:04:53,710
I stay.

82
00:04:55,837 --> 00:05:00,967
I live for the moment
when I can see you buried.

83
00:05:01,009 --> 00:05:05,013
When I come back from your funeral,
I'm going to open a bottle of wine.

84
00:05:06,681 --> 00:05:09,476
I want to be
compensated, uncle Simon,

85
00:05:09,518 --> 00:05:13,522
for 25 years
of being shrieked at,

86
00:05:13,605 --> 00:05:18,151
insulted, berated, humiliated

87
00:05:18,235 --> 00:05:23,323
and stepped on like an old rug.

88
00:05:23,406 --> 00:05:25,826
Is that sufficiently
honest for you?

89
00:05:25,867 --> 00:05:31,081
Well, I wish you well,
my good and faithful Barbara.

90
00:05:31,164 --> 00:05:34,417
But unasked, I offer you
this observation:

91
00:05:34,501 --> 00:05:38,088
If you had an ounce of
gristle or an inch of intestines,

92
00:05:38,171 --> 00:05:41,091
you'd have murdered
me years ago.

93
00:05:41,174 --> 00:05:44,427
And as for your 25
years of abject m/sery

94
00:05:44,511 --> 00:05:47,472
and unspeakable
indignation, you deserve it, kid.

95
00:05:49,558 --> 00:05:52,352
Now go and get me
some chocolate.

96
00:05:55,939 --> 00:05:58,942
Dramatis
personae: Mr. Simon polk,

97
00:05:59,025 --> 00:06:02,404
a gentleman who has lived
out his life ina gleeful rage.

98
00:06:02,487 --> 00:06:06,908
And the young lady who's just bea t the
hasty retrea t is Mr. Polk's niece, Barbara.

99
00:06:06,992 --> 00:06:11,538
She has lived her life as if during each
ensuing hour she had a dentist's appointment.

100
00:06:11,621 --> 00:06:14,791
There's a third member
soon to be seen.

101
00:06:14,875 --> 00:06:17,294
He now resides
in the laboratory,

102
00:06:17,377 --> 00:06:21,423
and heis the kind of character to
be found only in the twilight zone.

103
00:07:02,422 --> 00:07:06,760
Well... what have we here?

104
00:07:06,843 --> 00:07:08,595
I was looking f-for...

105
00:07:08,637 --> 00:07:11,348
Looking for what?

106
00:07:11,431 --> 00:07:16,436
I... thought perhaps you might
show me what you were building.

107
00:07:16,478 --> 00:07:19,773
Indeed. You'd like to
know, wouldn't you?

108
00:07:19,856 --> 00:07:24,861
That's the only character trait you
share with normal women: Curiosity.

109
00:07:24,945 --> 00:07:27,697
Ineffable curiosity.

110
00:07:27,781 --> 00:07:30,533
Well, one day you'll
know what I'm building,

111
00:07:30,617 --> 00:07:35,830
but until then, you night-crawling
imitation of the female gender,

112
00:07:35,914 --> 00:07:40,335
if I catch you sneaking around
outside my door, I'll break your head.

113
00:07:40,418 --> 00:07:44,047
Now, go on upstairs
and engage yourself

114
00:07:44,130 --> 00:07:46,675
in a nerve-wracking
game of dominoes.

115
00:07:49,427 --> 00:07:51,721
Tell me, uncle Simon,

116
00:07:53,682 --> 00:07:57,310
why do beasts like you
stay alive so long?

117
00:07:57,352 --> 00:07:58,937
What's that again?

118
00:07:59,020 --> 00:08:02,565
You heard me.
Why do decent men die

119
00:08:02,649 --> 00:08:05,568
and animals like
yourself keep living on?

120
00:08:05,652 --> 00:08:08,697
Because in most cases,
mine in particular,

121
00:08:08,780 --> 00:08:10,907
we have something to live for.

122
00:08:10,991 --> 00:08:15,578
I have you to live for, you
crooked-seamed grubber.

123
00:08:15,662 --> 00:08:18,915
That's why I keep this
decrepit old heart beating

124
00:08:18,999 --> 00:08:21,251
and these over-the-hill
lungs breathing

125
00:08:21,334 --> 00:08:24,337
because I know how deeply
dedicated you are to seeing me die.

126
00:08:24,379 --> 00:08:28,675
Who came here 25 years ago

127
00:08:28,758 --> 00:08:32,846
when you were crippled
and sick and couldn't move?

128
00:08:32,887 --> 00:08:36,182
Who came here and nursed
you and kept you alive?

129
00:08:36,266 --> 00:08:37,767
You did!

130
00:08:37,851 --> 00:08:41,521
You did, you
scrounging female ape.

131
00:08:41,563 --> 00:08:45,025
Now, let's get down to
cases. Why did you come?

132
00:08:45,066 --> 00:08:47,444
Was it out of love, Barbara?

133
00:08:47,527 --> 00:08:52,949
Was it out of a palpita ting
compass/on or a flagpole-stiff loyalty?

134
00:08:53,033 --> 00:08:54,909
I'll tell you why you came.

135
00:08:54,993 --> 00:08:58,955
You stayed on month after
month, year after year,

136
00:08:59,039 --> 00:09:02,375
'cause every prayer that came
out of your mouth was a supplication

137
00:09:02,417 --> 00:09:04,586
that I'd die before
the next morning.

138
00:09:04,669 --> 00:09:07,297
So don't go mouthing
your sweetnesses at me,

139
00:09:07,380 --> 00:09:11,134
you thin-lipped,
toothpick-legged conniver.

140
00:09:11,217 --> 00:09:14,804
Everything you did
for me, you did for greed.

141
00:09:14,888 --> 00:09:16,806
Greed!

142
00:09:16,890 --> 00:09:19,934
Greed so big, so thick, so heavy

143
00:09:20,018 --> 00:09:22,562
that it blotted out even
the hatred inside you.

144
00:09:22,604 --> 00:09:25,482
But let me tell you something,
you money-sick crone.

145
00:09:25,565 --> 00:09:27,776
You'll get paid off
in due course,

146
00:09:27,859 --> 00:09:31,738
but before that pay off, you'll
pay through every bone in your body.

147
00:09:31,780 --> 00:09:34,824
You'll pay, you ugly
harpy, you, you...

148
00:09:53,718 --> 00:09:56,096
Barbara.

149
00:09:56,179 --> 00:09:57,931
Help me.

150
00:09:59,849 --> 00:10:02,685
Barbara.

151
00:10:02,769 --> 00:10:04,854
Why won't you help me?

152
00:10:04,938 --> 00:10:09,359
Why don't you help me, Barbara?

153
00:10:09,442 --> 00:10:12,654
What's that?

154
00:10:12,737 --> 00:10:15,824
What's that, uncle?
I didn't quite hear you.

155
00:10:15,907 --> 00:10:18,618
Speaka little louder, would you?

156
00:10:18,660 --> 00:10:22,038
Tell me what it is
that you wanted.

157
00:10:22,122 --> 00:10:26,918
I think my back is broken.

158
00:10:28,461 --> 00:10:32,382
You say you want
some hot chocolate?

159
00:10:32,465 --> 00:10:35,844
Do you want it in the
English bone China cup?

160
00:10:35,927 --> 00:10:39,055
What is your pleasure, uncle?

161
00:10:39,139 --> 00:10:43,143
You say you want me to close
the drapes and shut the windows?

162
00:10:43,226 --> 00:10:46,312
Barbara. Barbara!

163
00:10:46,396 --> 00:10:48,148
Barbara?

164
00:10:48,231 --> 00:10:50,692
You want Barbara?

165
00:10:50,775 --> 00:10:55,697
She's right here, love, standing
right above you. Can't you see her?

166
00:10:55,780 --> 00:11:01,161
Can't you hear her, you ancient
albatross with a dirty mouth?

167
00:11:03,288 --> 00:11:04,831
Uncle Simon?

168
00:11:05,832 --> 00:11:08,710
Uncle Simon?

169
00:11:08,793 --> 00:11:10,753
Please,

170
00:11:10,837 --> 00:11:13,715
don't die quite this moment.

171
00:11:15,508 --> 00:11:20,180
If you can hold on, try,
try just for a second.

172
00:11:20,221 --> 00:11:23,766
I want to tell you something.

173
00:11:23,850 --> 00:11:27,103
I want to make an announcement.

174
00:11:27,187 --> 00:11:29,939
As of this second,

175
00:11:30,023 --> 00:11:33,234
as of this very second,

176
00:11:33,318 --> 00:11:37,405
I have quit suffering
because of you.

177
00:11:37,488 --> 00:11:41,951
I am no longer
sowing, uncle Simon.

178
00:11:42,035 --> 00:11:46,206
As of right now,
I am going to reap!

179
00:12:41,886 --> 00:12:44,806
Hey, world, I'm back!

180
00:12:44,889 --> 00:12:47,225
I'm really back!

181
00:12:58,361 --> 00:13:01,864
If you give me the sense of it, then
I'll know how dispose of some things.

182
00:13:01,948 --> 00:13:04,367
That, my dear,
is the sense of it.

183
00:13:04,450 --> 00:13:07,829
The will very explicitly requires
that you throw away nothing.

184
00:13:07,912 --> 00:13:09,664
You keep everything intact.

185
00:13:09,747 --> 00:13:12,125
I see.

186
00:13:12,208 --> 00:13:15,628
The house, its furnishings,
everything goes to you in perpetuity.

187
00:13:15,670 --> 00:13:20,008
The proviso is, of course,
that you remain here.

188
00:13:20,091 --> 00:13:23,011
Where would I go?
This is my home.

189
00:13:23,094 --> 00:13:25,471
Of course, of course.

190
00:13:25,555 --> 00:13:29,475
But, uh, the document
is quite clear in its intent.

191
00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:33,479
Everything will remain in your name
so long as you are on the premises.

192
00:13:33,563 --> 00:13:36,149
The same thing applies
to the various securities

193
00:13:36,190 --> 00:13:40,653
and the cash, which is quite sizable.
It's been set up in trust for you.

194
00:13:40,695 --> 00:13:42,989
You're to draw
the interest accruing

195
00:13:43,031 --> 00:13:46,826
so long as you
remain in the house.

196
00:13:46,868 --> 00:13:50,330
Where could anybody find a
man with a heart as big as his?

197
00:13:50,371 --> 00:13:53,333
Uh, now this, this is a codicil

198
00:13:53,416 --> 00:13:56,252
your uncle had
delivered to my office.

199
00:13:56,336 --> 00:13:58,713
His instructions were
to include it in the will.

200
00:13:58,796 --> 00:14:02,216
"Add this codicil.
Additional stipulation."

201
00:14:02,300 --> 00:14:04,177
Uh. Hm.

202
00:14:04,218 --> 00:14:06,012
The sense of this, miss polk,

203
00:14:06,054 --> 00:14:08,598
is that to qualify
for the other legacies,

204
00:14:08,681 --> 00:14:11,017
there is one
additional stipula tion.'

205
00:14:11,100 --> 00:14:14,354
that you're to care for all
of your uncle's experiments.

206
00:14:14,395 --> 00:14:17,774
"Care for?" That's odd.

207
00:14:17,857 --> 00:14:20,193
I don't understand,
Mr. Schwimmer.

208
00:14:20,276 --> 00:14:22,528
Just exactly what
experiments did he mean?

209
00:14:22,570 --> 00:14:25,907
I have no idea. But,
uh, it reads as follows:

210
00:14:25,990 --> 00:14:28,368
"My beloved niece, Barbara,

211
00:14:28,409 --> 00:14:32,038
"will be responsible for the
well-being of my la test experiment.

212
00:14:32,121 --> 00:14:36,042
"She will care for it, loo/(After
itand see to its wants and needs.

213
00:14:36,084 --> 00:14:38,211
"A member of the law firm

214
00:14:38,294 --> 00:14:41,881
"of schwimmer, schwimmer, king,
bathrick, pepperin, and schwimmer,

215
00:14:41,964 --> 00:14:45,718
"will visit once each week to
see this stipulation is adhered to.

216
00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:49,555
"In the event my beloved
niece Barbara fails to compl y

217
00:14:49,597 --> 00:14:53,726
"with the pro visions hereof, I hereby
give and beouea th all my property,

218
00:14:53,768 --> 00:14:57,063
both real and personal,
to the sta te university."

219
00:14:57,105 --> 00:14:59,565
Uh, now, the sense
of that, miss polk...

220
00:14:59,607 --> 00:15:02,151
Just what is the sense
of that, Mr. Schwimmer?

221
00:15:02,235 --> 00:15:06,114
I gather it depends very much on
the nature of your uncle's experiment.

222
00:15:06,197 --> 00:15:10,410
He refers to it as "it." You
have no idea what "it" is?

223
00:15:10,451 --> 00:15:13,121
No idea at all,

224
00:15:13,204 --> 00:15:16,332
except that whatever it is,
it must be in the laboratory.

225
00:15:37,770 --> 00:15:40,773
Well, nothing in here
of any consequence.

226
00:15:51,784 --> 00:15:54,954
How do you do?

227
00:15:54,996 --> 00:15:58,291
I'm a mechanical man

228
00:15:58,332 --> 00:16:02,462
buil t by your la te
uncle Simon polk.

229
00:16:02,503 --> 00:16:04,964
Your opening the door

230
00:16:05,047 --> 00:16:09,969
has activated all
of my operating relays.

231
00:16:10,011 --> 00:16:13,139
Be pa tient with me,

232
00:16:13,222 --> 00:16:17,685
because according to
plan, according to plan,

233
00:16:17,768 --> 00:16:21,063
according to plan,
according to...

234
00:16:21,147 --> 00:16:23,733
It will be several days

235
00:16:23,816 --> 00:16:28,779
before I can function
at maximum capacity.

236
00:16:30,656 --> 00:16:33,409
I bid you greetings.

237
00:16:33,493 --> 00:16:36,078
H ello, Barbara.

238
00:16:47,006 --> 00:16:49,592
Ba r-ba ra!

239
00:16:55,973 --> 00:16:58,184
Bar-bara!

240
00:17:27,463 --> 00:17:29,799
I'm going out, Frankenstein.

241
00:17:29,882 --> 00:17:34,470
If you need anything, like a
can of lubricant, get it yourself.

242
00:17:34,554 --> 00:17:36,973
You must not leave.

243
00:17:37,056 --> 00:17:40,601
Mr. Schwimmer is coming tonight.

244
00:17:40,685 --> 00:17:43,312
A week has gone by.

245
00:17:43,396 --> 00:17:47,441
Isn't Mr. Schwimmer coming?

246
00:17:47,525 --> 00:17:50,403
Yes, Mr. Schwimmer is coming.

247
00:17:50,444 --> 00:17:52,989
He'll be here at 8:00.

248
00:17:53,072 --> 00:17:54,991
Good.

249
00:17:55,074 --> 00:17:58,661
Good? Good for what?

250
00:17:58,744 --> 00:18:03,165
He will see that I am
functioning properly.

251
00:18:03,249 --> 00:18:07,086
You see, I am like an infant.

252
00:18:07,128 --> 00:18:11,173
I am maturing gradually.

253
00:18:11,257 --> 00:18:15,928
Soon, I will have
all my faculties.

254
00:18:16,012 --> 00:18:20,182
I will be able to
perform all my functions.

255
00:18:20,266 --> 00:18:22,935
I will be a whole being.

256
00:18:22,977 --> 00:18:24,770
How nice.

257
00:18:24,854 --> 00:18:27,773
How perfectly grand.
How exciting.

258
00:18:27,857 --> 00:18:31,319
You'll be a whole being.
Then what will happen?

259
00:18:31,402 --> 00:18:35,114
I will take on human attributes,

260
00:18:35,156 --> 00:18:37,658
those which your uncle Simon

261
00:18:37,742 --> 00:18:39,952
saw fit to give me.

262
00:18:39,994 --> 00:18:43,289
My uncle Simon, hm?

263
00:18:43,372 --> 00:18:45,166
There was a prince of a man.

264
00:18:45,249 --> 00:18:50,046
A-A brilliant man.

265
00:18:50,129 --> 00:18:52,298
This is interesting.

266
00:18:52,340 --> 00:18:56,218
This is very interesting.

267
00:18:56,302 --> 00:18:59,555
It's coming through now.

268
00:19:01,932 --> 00:19:03,225
What is?

269
00:19:03,309 --> 00:19:08,814
A-A craving. A new craving.

270
00:19:08,856 --> 00:19:11,859
Hot chocola te.

271
00:19:11,942 --> 00:19:17,198
I would love a cup
of hot chocolate.

272
00:19:42,515 --> 00:19:45,267
Miss polk.

273
00:19:45,351 --> 00:19:48,521
Well, you look
lovely, miss polk.

274
00:19:48,604 --> 00:19:53,275
And how is, how is
young master polk, hm?

275
00:20:41,532 --> 00:20:44,243
You took those keys off
the desk. Give them back to me.

276
00:20:44,285 --> 00:20:48,748
Oh, no, I must keep the
laboratory door locked.

277
00:20:48,831 --> 00:20:50,958
You must not come down.

278
00:20:51,041 --> 00:20:55,921
It is my room. It belongs to me.

279
00:20:56,005 --> 00:20:58,841
Barbara,

280
00:20:58,924 --> 00:21:03,053
won't you bring me
some hot chocolate?

281
00:21:06,557 --> 00:21:10,019
After you bring me
my hot chocolate,

282
00:21:10,102 --> 00:21:13,355
would you please
close all the windows

283
00:21:13,439 --> 00:21:15,691
and pull the drapes?

284
00:21:15,775 --> 00:21:18,527
I don't like the light.

285
00:21:18,611 --> 00:21:22,198
I don't like the draft.

286
00:21:22,281 --> 00:21:26,535
What is the matter, Barbara?

287
00:21:26,619 --> 00:21:29,997
Tell me, please,
what? t is the ma tter?

288
00:21:30,080 --> 00:21:32,792
Wha t is the ma tter?

289
00:21:32,875 --> 00:21:38,714
Wha t is the ma tter, you peanut-headed
sample of na ture's carelessness?

290
00:21:51,435 --> 00:21:53,479
Barbara.

291
00:21:53,521 --> 00:21:55,815
Barbara.

292
00:21:55,898 --> 00:21:59,819
Help me. Help me.

293
00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:11,080
Ah, how are you
this evening, miss polk?

294
00:22:11,163 --> 00:22:14,166
He, uh, it is rather
quiet these days.

295
00:22:14,250 --> 00:22:15,668
Doesn't seem to say much.

296
00:22:15,709 --> 00:22:17,837
He makes his wants known.

297
00:22:19,338 --> 00:22:21,841
Pity about his-his leg,

298
00:22:21,924 --> 00:22:24,510
but he manages to
get around, doesn't he?

299
00:22:24,593 --> 00:22:28,764
Indeed, he does.
Indeed, he does.

300
00:22:28,848 --> 00:22:31,767
Well, I'll see you
next week, miss polk.

301
00:22:31,851 --> 00:22:35,646
Take care of yourself, my
dear. No need to show me out.

302
00:22:39,608 --> 00:22:41,235
Ba rba ra.

303
00:22:46,949 --> 00:22:49,410
Barbara?

304
00:22:57,126 --> 00:22:59,962
Barbara, my dear,
if you could prevail

305
00:23:00,045 --> 00:23:03,883
upon that raggedy Ann
carcass of yours to exert itself,

306
00:23:03,924 --> 00:23:06,135
I'd like a cup of hot chocolate.

307
00:23:06,218 --> 00:23:09,597
I would like it in the
English bone China cup,

308
00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:12,641
and if it's not hot, I'll
throw it on the floor.

309
00:23:12,725 --> 00:23:14,894
All right, I'll make some.

310
00:23:14,935 --> 00:23:19,231
Speak up, you lint-headed
clod. I couldn't hear you.

311
00:23:19,273 --> 00:23:22,109
I'll make some hot chocolate.

312
00:23:22,192 --> 00:23:26,238
Move, you torpid lotus-eater.

313
00:23:26,280 --> 00:23:28,741
Be sure tha t it's hot.

314
00:23:28,824 --> 00:23:30,451
Do you hear me?

315
00:23:30,534 --> 00:23:33,579
Make sure tha t it's hot.

316
00:23:33,621 --> 00:23:36,916
What does it take to make
you move, you bovine crab?

317
00:23:36,957 --> 00:23:40,336
I'll fix it for you now.

318
00:23:40,419 --> 00:23:45,424
You'll fix it for me now, what?

319
00:23:45,466 --> 00:23:49,762
I'll fix it for you now,

320
00:23:49,803 --> 00:23:51,639
uncle.

321
00:23:59,480 --> 00:24:03,776
Dramatis personae: A metal
man who'll go by the name of Simon,

322
00:24:03,859 --> 00:24:07,446
whose life as well as his
bodyhas been stamped on for him.

323
00:24:07,529 --> 00:24:10,282
And the woman who tends
to him, the ladybarbara,

324
00:24:10,324 --> 00:24:14,119
who's discovered bela tedl y tha
tall bad things don't come to an end,

325
00:24:14,203 --> 00:24:17,957
and tha t oncea bed is made, it's
quite necessary that you sleep in it.

326
00:24:17,998 --> 00:24:22,127
Tonight's uncomfortable little
exercise in a var/ce and a utoma tons

327
00:24:22,211 --> 00:24:24,630
from the twilight zone.

328
00:24:28,801 --> 00:24:31,011
And now, Mr. Serl/ng.

329
00:24:31,095 --> 00:24:34,306
Next on twilightzone, an eminent
performer of stage and screen,

330
00:24:34,390 --> 00:24:36,850
Mr. Richard basehart,
in an odd-ball excursion

331
00:24:36,934 --> 00:24:39,186
that we call probe
seven, over and out.

332
00:24:39,269 --> 00:24:42,356
On occasion, we'll come up with
a wild and woolly denouement,

333
00:24:42,439 --> 00:24:44,900
but this particular opus
has an unpredictable ending

334
00:24:44,984 --> 00:24:48,487
that we doubt if even the most
seasoned tz fans will be able to pick up

335
00:24:48,570 --> 00:24:50,489
before it happens
on your screen.

336
00:24:50,572 --> 00:24:53,617
Next on twilightzone,
probe seven, over and out.
