00:01:00The End
00:01:30Oh, Dr. Hill?
00:01:45Dr. Bassett?
00:01:47Where's the patient?
00:01:48I hated to drag you out of bed at this time of night.
00:01:50Will you let me go while there's still time?
00:01:52You'll soon see why I did.
00:01:56Doctor!
00:01:57Will you tell these fools I'm not crazy!
00:02:00Make them listen to me before it's too late!
00:02:02I'll listen to you.
00:02:04Let him go.
00:02:09Who are you?
00:02:10I'm Dr. Hill from the State Mental Hospital.
00:02:12I'm not insane!
00:02:14Let him go!
00:02:15Listen.
00:02:17Doctor!
00:02:18Now, you must listen to me.
00:02:19You must understand me.
00:02:21I'm a doctor, too.
00:02:22I am not insane.
00:02:23I am not insane.
00:02:24Now, suppose we just sit down over here, Dr. Bunnell, and you tell me what happened.
00:02:32Well, it started.
00:02:35For me, it started last Thursday.
00:02:36In response to an urgent message from my nurse, I'd hurried home from a medical convention I'd been attending.
00:02:45At first glance, everything looked the same.
00:02:49It wasn't.
00:02:52Something evil had taken possession of the town.
00:02:56These two.
00:02:58Here you are.
00:02:58Thank you, sir.
00:03:00Here you are.
00:03:01Hiya, Sally.
00:03:11Hi.
00:03:13Welcome home.
00:03:14I'm glad you're back.
00:03:15How's Mickey and the baby?
00:03:16Well, they're fine, but it seems that everybody else in San Mara needs a doctor.
00:03:19You've got an office full of patients.
00:03:20Oh, no.
00:03:21And my first day back?
00:03:22Well, some of them have been waiting for two weeks.
00:03:25Why didn't you send them to Percy or Carmichael like I told you to?
00:03:27Well, most of them wouldn't go.
00:03:28They want to see you.
00:03:30Oh.
00:03:31What's the matter with you?
00:03:40They wouldn't say.
00:03:41You know, usually people can't talk enough about what's ailing them.
00:03:45For instance, Wally Eberhardt was in twice and called three times about something, but he wouldn't tell me what it was.
00:03:50That's funny.
00:03:51Neither would anyone else, from Becky Driscoll down to that fat traffic cop, Sam Jancic.
00:03:56Becky Driscoll?
00:03:57I thought she was in England.
00:03:59She got back a few days ago, and she wanted to see you.
00:04:04Are you still interested?
00:04:06My interest in married women is strictly professional, or yours would have been a lost cause long ago.
00:04:11How was the convention?
00:04:13Wonderful.
00:04:14They wept with envy when I read my paper.
00:04:16What's the matter, Mrs. Grimaldi?
00:04:26It's nothing.
00:04:27He just don't want to go to school.
00:04:31Well, if I were you, I'd have a talk with his teacher.
00:04:34Yeah, I will when I get time.
00:04:36What's the matter?
00:04:37Has Joe been sick?
00:04:38No, we gave you a stand-up.
00:04:40Too much work.
00:04:42Well, the boy's panic should have told me it was more than school he was afraid of.
00:04:46And that littered, closed-up vegetable stand should have told me something, too.
00:04:50When I last saw it, less than a month ago, it was the cleanest and busiest stand on the road.
00:04:55That's strange.
00:04:57She was in to see you, too, last Friday.
00:04:59And I tried to get her to go see Doc Percy, but she wouldn't.
00:05:01She said only you could help her.
00:05:03Well, whatever it was, it couldn't have been too serious, I guess.
00:05:11One minor concussion, two cases of the common cold, and six canceled appointments.
00:05:16Looks like you rushed me here for nothing.
00:05:18I don't understand it, Miles.
00:05:20I couldn't wait to see you.
00:05:21But you're still booked up solid for the afternoon.
00:05:24I bet they don't show.
00:05:25Look, there's Wally Eberhard talking somebody into buying some insurance.
00:05:29There's nothing wrong with him.
00:05:30And Bill Bittner's taking his secretary to lunch.
00:05:34And speaking of lunch, will you tell whoever that is that I'm out having mine?
00:05:37Is Dr. Bennell in?
00:05:38Uh, yes, he's here.
00:05:40Do you suppose he has time to see me a moment?
00:05:42Well, if he hasn't, there's something wrong with him.
00:05:44Go right in.
00:05:48Becky.
00:05:51Almost five years.
00:05:52It's wonderful to be home again.
00:05:54Been away so long, I feel almost like a stranger in my own country.
00:05:57I hope you don't mind my coming about an appointment.
00:06:00Not at all.
00:06:02What'll you have?
00:06:03We're pushing appendectomies this week.
00:06:05Oh, Miles.
00:06:06I don't know.
00:06:07Maybe I climb around too much.
00:06:09Pretty soon my patients won't trust me to prescribe aspirin for them.
00:06:12Now, seriously, what's the trouble?
00:06:15It's my cousin.
00:06:16Wilma?
00:06:17What's the matter with her?
00:06:18She has a, well, I guess you'd call it a delusion.
00:06:24You know her uncle, Uncle Ira?
00:06:26Sure.
00:06:27I'm his doctor.
00:06:28Well, Miles, she's got herself thinking he isn't her uncle.
00:06:31How do you mean that they're not really related?
00:06:33No, she thinks he's an imposter or something.
00:06:35Someone who only looks like Ira.
00:06:37Have you seen him?
00:06:38I just came from there.
00:06:40Well, is he Uncle Ira or isn't he Uncle Ira?
00:06:43Of course he is.
00:06:44I told Wilma that, but it was no use.
00:06:47Please, would you stop by and have a talk with her?
00:06:49Well, Sally says that I'm booked up for the afternoon,
00:06:51but why don't you ask her to come in and see me?
00:06:54I'll try.
00:06:56Um, how about some lunch?
00:06:58I can't.
00:06:59I'm eating down in the store.
00:07:05When did you get back?
00:07:07I came back from London two months ago.
00:07:09I've been in Reno.
00:07:11Reno?
00:07:12Reno.
00:07:13Dad tells me you were there, too.
00:07:16Five months ago.
00:07:17Oh, I'm sorry.
00:07:19So was I.
00:07:21I wanted it to work.
00:07:23Well, I guess that makes us Lodge brothers now.
00:07:26Yes.
00:07:28Except that I'm paying dues while you collect them.
00:07:32Miles.
00:07:40Hello, George.
00:07:41How are you?
00:07:42Sam!
00:07:43Hello, Doc.
00:07:44And it again, eh?
00:07:45My nurse tells me you were in last week and wanted very much to see me.
00:07:48It wasn't anything important.
00:07:52Say, didn't you go to college with us?
00:07:54Quit his second year to get married.
00:07:57Like I wanted us to do.
00:07:58Just be thankful I didn't take you seriously.
00:08:00You'll be thankful.
00:08:02I found out that a doctor's wife needs the understanding of an Einstein and the patience of a saint.
00:08:07And love?
00:08:08I wouldn't know about that.
00:08:09I wouldn't know about that.
00:08:11I'm just a general practitioner.
00:08:13Love is handled by the specialists.
00:08:15Well, here's where I leave you.
00:08:18You know something?
00:08:19This is where you left me the last time.
00:08:22I'll be back.
00:08:22I'll be back.
00:08:23I'll be back.
00:08:23I'll be back.
00:08:23Hiya, Johnny.
00:08:32Sally, I'm off.
00:08:34Will you tell the answering service I'll be at home?
00:08:36Good night, Doc.
00:08:38May I come right in here?
00:08:40All right, Jimmy, stop all this nonsense and be a good boy.
00:08:43Come on.
00:08:43Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, take it easy.
00:08:46Isn't this Jimmy Grimaldi?
00:08:48Yes, Doctor.
00:08:48Can I talk to you in a minute?
00:08:49Sure.
00:08:50You know, I almost ran you down this morning.
00:08:51You've got to be careful when you're running out the road.
00:08:53Don't run me down.
00:08:54Come on, come on.
00:08:55Come on.
00:09:00Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.
00:09:03Slow down now.
00:09:04Look, school isn't as bad as all that.
00:09:06School isn't what upsets him.
00:09:08It's my daughter-in-law.
00:09:09He's got the crazy idea she isn't his mother.
00:09:11She isn't.
00:09:12She isn't.
00:09:13Don't let her get me.
00:09:15Nobody's going to get you, Jimmy.
00:09:21How long has this been going on?
00:09:26An hour ago, I found him hiding in the cellar, having hysterics.
00:09:29He wouldn't tell me anything until I started to phone his mother.
00:09:32That's when he said Anna wasn't his mother.
00:09:34Could you keep him with you for a day or so?
00:09:36Of course.
00:09:36Give him one of these every four hours during the day.
00:09:39Then call me tomorrow and let me know how he's feeling.
00:09:41Yes, Doctor.
00:09:43Don't let her get me.
00:09:44Oh, nobody's going to get you, Jimmy.
00:09:54All right, Jimmy.
00:09:55Open your mouth.
00:09:57Shut your eyes.
00:09:59In the words of the poet, I'll give you something to make you wise.
00:10:02That's a good boy, Jimmy.
00:10:05I'm not going home.
00:10:07You're going to stay at your grandmother's house.
00:10:09Would you call his mother and tell her that...
00:10:10All right, all right, all right, run along, run along.
00:10:13Everything's going to be all right.
00:10:14You be a good boy now.
00:10:16Come on.
00:10:16Good night, Doctor.
00:10:17Good night.
00:10:20Sally, I've changed my mind.
00:10:21I'm not going directly home.
00:10:22I'm going to stop off and see Wilma Lance.
00:10:24Should I call the boy's mother?
00:10:25Yes, call her and tell her what happened and that I suggested.
00:10:27It might be a good idea if the boy spent the night at his grandmother's house.
00:10:39Hello, Miles.
00:10:41Nice to see you, Wilma.
00:10:42Let's have it.
00:10:44You talk to him.
00:10:45What do you think?
00:10:46It's him.
00:10:47He's your Uncle Ira, all right.
00:10:49He is not.
00:10:59How is he different?
00:11:01That's just it.
00:11:02There is no difference you can actually see.
00:11:04He looks, sounds, acts, and remembers like Uncle Ira.
00:11:08Then he is your Uncle Ira.
00:11:10Can't you see that?
00:11:11No matter how you feel, he is.
00:11:13But he isn't.
00:11:14There's something missing.
00:11:16He's been a father to me since I was a baby.
00:11:19Always when he talked to me, there was a special look in his eye.
00:11:23That look's gone.
00:11:26What about memories?
00:11:28There must be certain things that only you and he would know about.
00:11:31Oh, there are.
00:11:32I've talked to him about them.
00:11:34He remembers them all down to the last small detail, just like Uncle Ira would.
00:11:37But Miles, there's no emotion.
00:11:43None.
00:11:44Just the pretense of it.
00:11:46The words, gesture, the tone of voice, everything else is the same, but not the feeling.
00:11:53Memories are not, he isn't my Uncle Ira.
00:11:56Wilma, I'm on your side.
00:11:58My business is people in trouble and I'm going to find a way to help you.
00:12:01Now, no one could possibly impersonate your Uncle Ira without you or your Aunt Alita or even me
00:12:06seeing a million little differences.
00:12:09I want you to realize that.
00:12:10Think about it.
00:12:12And then you'll know that the trouble is inside you.
00:12:16Wilma, where are you?
00:12:18Out on the lawn.
00:12:20Say nothing to her.
00:12:23Why, Miles, I didn't know you were here.
00:12:25Welcome home.
00:12:26Hello, Mrs. Lentz.
00:12:27Did you ask Miles to stay for dinner?
00:12:30Can't tonight.
00:12:31I'm making spoon bread.
00:12:32Please, don't tempt me.
00:12:34Well, maybe next time.
00:12:36Wilma, where are my glasses?
00:12:37I think I saw them on the mantelpiece.
00:12:39I'll go with you.
00:12:52Miles, am I going crazy?
00:12:54Don't spare me.
00:12:55I've got dinner.
00:12:55No, you're not.
00:12:57Even these days, it isn't as easy to go crazy as you might think.
00:13:00But you don't have to be losing your mind to need psychiatric help.
00:13:04I'd like you to see a doctor friend of mine.
00:13:08Psychiatrist?
00:13:09Dan Kaufman.
00:13:10I'll make an appointment for you tomorrow.
00:13:15All right.
00:13:17But it's a waste of time.
00:13:18There's nothing wrong with me.
00:13:19We'd better break this up or he'll start wondering.
00:13:29Wondering what?
00:13:30If I don't suspect.
00:13:32You've been a big help and I don't want you to worry about me.
00:13:35Or you either.
00:13:36I'll be all right.
00:13:37Sure you will.
00:13:38Staying here, Becky, or may I drive you home?
00:13:40Would you like me to stay?
00:13:42Of course not.
00:13:43Good night.
00:13:43Good night.
00:13:45Nice having Becky back again, eh, boy?
00:13:59Sure is.
00:14:05In the back of my mind, a warning bell was ringing.
00:14:08Sick people who couldn't wait to see me then suddenly were perfectly all right.
00:14:12A boy who said his mother wasn't his mother.
00:14:14A woman who said her uncle wasn't her uncle.
00:14:16But I didn't listen.
00:14:18Obviously, the boy's mother was his mother.
00:14:20I'd seen her.
00:14:21And Uncle Ira was Uncle Irene.
00:14:23There was no doubt of that after I'd talked to him.
00:14:26Mars, he is Irene.
00:14:28Of course he is.
00:14:29What do you mean?
00:14:30It's just that Wilma's so positive.
00:14:32Will she be all right?
00:14:34Oh, I think so.
00:14:35I'm a doctor, according to my diploma,
00:14:37but I don't really know what Wilma's trouble is.
00:14:39I could start talking psychiatric jargon,
00:14:42but it's out of my line and in Dan Kaufman's.
00:14:47I wish you didn't have to go home for dinner.
00:14:49I don't.
00:14:50Dad's eating out with a friend.
00:14:53I could pick you up at seven.
00:14:57Well.
00:14:58It's summer and the moon is full,
00:15:00and I know a bank where the wild time grows.
00:15:03The wild time grows.
00:15:04You haven't changed a bit.
00:15:20What?
00:15:21Whoa, watch out.
00:15:22Sorry.
00:15:23Hey, Miles, why don't you get back?
00:15:25This morning.
00:15:25How are you, Danny?
00:15:26This is Miss Driscoll, Dr. Kaufman,
00:15:28our one and only psychiatrist.
00:15:29How do you do?
00:15:30Watch out what you say.
00:15:31Ed, you remember Becky.
00:15:32I should.
00:15:32I brought her into the world.
00:15:33You did us all a favor.
00:15:34Hello, Dr. Percy.
00:15:35This saves me a phone call.
00:15:37I've got a mixed up kid and a woman who need a witch doctor.
00:15:39The boy says his father isn't his father,
00:15:41and the woman says her sister isn't her sister.
00:15:44That's pretty close.
00:15:45I knew you'd been studying hypnosis,
00:15:47but when did you start reading minds?
00:15:49He doesn't have to read them.
00:15:50I've sent him a dozen patients since it started.
00:15:52What is it?
00:15:53What's going on?
00:15:54I don't know.
00:15:55A strange neurosis.
00:15:56Evidently contagious.
00:15:58An epidemic mass hysteria.
00:15:59In two weeks, it's spread all over town.
00:16:02What causes it?
00:16:04Worry about what's going on in the world, probably.
00:16:08Make room for Wilma Lentz tomorrow, will you, Danny?
00:16:10Send her in around two.
00:16:12Good night.
00:16:12So long, Danny.
00:16:13This is the oddest thing I ever heard of.
00:16:22Let's hope we don't catch it.
00:16:24I'd hate to wake up some morning and find out that you weren't you.
00:16:28I'm not the high school kid used to romance.
00:16:31How can you tell?
00:16:31You really want to know?
00:16:32You're Becky Driscoll.
00:16:46Hey, Santa Mary's looking up.
00:16:48Has ever since you got back.
00:16:50Is this an example of your bedside manner, Doctor?
00:16:54No, ma'am.
00:16:55That comes later.
00:16:55Come on.
00:16:55Good evening, Doctor.
00:17:09What happened to the crowd tonight?
00:17:10I don't know.
00:17:11It's been this way for two or three weeks now.
00:17:14Well, at least we don't have to wait for a table.
00:17:17Well, take your pick.
00:17:18In here or here.
00:17:19Here, I think.
00:17:21Shall we?
00:17:23Where's the band?
00:17:24Well, business started falling off, so I had to let them go.
00:17:27There's the jukebox, though.
00:17:28Shall we dance?
00:17:30I hope you didn't let the bartender go.
00:17:31I am the bartender.
00:17:33Martinis?
00:17:34Two.
00:17:35Dry.
00:17:37Uh, very dry.
00:17:41Miles, I don't care what Dr. Karkner says, I'm worried.
00:17:44You are in the capable hands of your personal physician.
00:17:48Oh, Doctor.
00:17:50Oh, there's our evening.
00:17:53Sorry.
00:17:54Thanks.
00:17:59Dr. Bunnell.
00:18:00Jack Belichick wants you to come to his house right away, Doctor.
00:18:04He says it's urgent.
00:18:09Better hold those drinks.
00:18:11Emergency.
00:18:12Well, at least they called before we ordered dinner.
00:18:15How hungry are you?
00:18:16I can wait.
00:18:17Maybe quite a while.
00:18:18I'll go with you.
00:18:19Sorry.
00:18:20We'll be back later.
00:18:21There's Jack.
00:18:37There's Jack.
00:18:38Hello, Jack.
00:18:52What's the matter?
00:18:53Teddy's sick?
00:18:53No.
00:18:55Miles, thank heaven.
00:18:56I thought you'd never get here.
00:18:57Well, if you're not sick, who is?
00:18:59Nobody.
00:19:00Well, then, why did you drag me away for my dinner?
00:19:02Well, you won't believe it, Miles, until you see it for yourself.
00:19:05Hello, Becky.
00:19:05Good to see you again.
00:19:06Hello, Becky.
00:19:07Hi, Jack.
00:19:07Hi, Jack.
00:19:13Would you be able to forget that you're a doctor for a while?
00:19:15Why?
00:19:16I don't want you to call the police right away.
00:19:18Quit acting like a writer.
00:19:19What's going on?
00:19:21Maybe you can tell me.
00:19:22You're the doctor.
00:19:34Miles, put the light on over the pool table.
00:19:36Go on.
00:19:49Pull it down.
00:19:50Pull it down.
00:20:20Well, what do you make of it?
00:20:38Who is he?
00:20:39I have no idea.
00:20:47It's face, Miles.
00:20:48It's fake.
00:20:49It's like the first impression that's stamped on a coin.
00:20:54It isn't finished.
00:20:55You're right.
00:20:56There's all the features, but no details, no character, no lines.
00:21:00It's no dead man.
00:21:02Have you got an ink pad around the house?
00:21:04Should be one of the desk line.
00:21:06Why don't you take the corpse's fingerprints?
00:21:07Of course it's a dead man.
00:21:08What else could it be?
00:21:10I don't know, but I've got a feeling that...
00:21:12It sounds crazy, but if I should do an autopsy,
00:21:15I think I'd find every organ in perfect condition.
00:21:18It's just as perfect as the body is externally.
00:21:26Everything in working order.
00:21:27All set to go, hold it there, will you?
00:21:38He's blank.
00:21:40Waiting for the final finished face to be stamped onto it.
00:21:43But whose face?
00:21:46Tell me that.
00:21:47I think we could all use a drink.
00:21:53Bourbon all right?
00:21:54Fine.
00:21:55Enough of that.
00:21:57Miles, answer me.
00:21:58Whose face?
00:21:59I haven't the slightest idea, honey.
00:22:00Have you?
00:22:02How, uh...
00:22:03How tall would you say that thing is?
00:22:06Oh, 5'10", thereabouts.
00:22:08How much does it weigh?
00:22:10I don't know.
00:22:10It's pretty thin.
00:22:11Maybe 140 pounds.
00:22:14Jack's 5'10", weighs 140 pounds.
00:22:16Ow!
00:22:19Teddy, will you stop talking nonsense?
00:22:21I'm sorry, darling.
00:22:22Come on, let's have that hand.
00:22:23But it isn't nonsense.
00:22:26Becky, you don't think it's nonsense, do you?
00:22:28Well, of course it is.
00:22:29Jack's standing here in front of you.
00:22:31Of course I am.
00:22:32Bleeding to death.
00:22:34Excuse me, just a minute.
00:22:35You know what?
00:22:36I'm afraid you may live.
00:22:40You this should fix it.
00:22:43Miles, don't you think we should call the police
00:22:44and have them take that dead body out of here?
00:22:46I'm afraid it isn't just a dead body.
00:22:50Thanks.
00:23:01I wonder if...
00:23:02Look, I wonder if there's any connection.
00:23:07What do you mean?
00:23:08There's something strange going on in Santa Mira.
00:23:12Dr. Kaufman calls it an epidemic of mass hysteria.
00:23:17Becky's cousin's got it, for one.
00:23:19She thinks that her uncle and her aunt aren't her uncle and her aunt.
00:23:22There are several cases of such delusion.
00:23:26Now, this isn't you yet, but there is a structural likeness.
00:23:32It's fantastic, but there must be some reason why this thing is in your house.
00:23:36Would you be willing to sit up with your strange friend and see what his next move is?
00:23:40If nothing happens by morning, call the police.
00:23:43If something happens, call me, will you?
00:23:46You know I will.
00:23:54Good night.
00:23:55Take it easy.
00:23:56Sure.
00:23:57Now, nothing's going to happen.
00:23:59Good night, babe.
00:23:59Well, if it does, it'll make a charming, blood-curdling mystery story.
00:24:11I was careful not to let Becky know, but for the first time, I was really scared.
00:24:16Dan Kaufman's explanation of what was wrong in town.
00:24:19Mass hysteria.
00:24:20Couldn't explain away that body on Jack's billiard table.
00:24:22Come in while I turn the lights on.
00:24:39You're a forward wench dragging me into a dark hallway to be kissed.
00:24:43I'm dragging you into a dark hallway because I'm scared of the dark tonight.
00:24:47In that case, I'd better stay and tuck you in.
00:24:49That way lies madness.
00:24:50What's wrong with madness?
00:24:55Madness.
00:24:56Now, good night.
00:25:05Well, it's about time you two got home.
00:25:08Dad, what are you doing in the basement this time of night?
00:25:10Working in my shop.
00:25:12How about a nightcap, Doc?
00:25:13No, thanks.
00:25:13It's kind of late.
00:25:14I'll take a rain check.
00:25:16Good night.
00:25:16Good night.
00:25:19Good night.
00:25:20Good night, Miles.
00:25:21Good night.
00:25:21Good night.
00:25:22Good night.
00:25:23Good night.
00:25:23Good night.
00:25:24Good night.
00:25:25Good night.
00:25:26Good night.
00:25:27Good night.
00:25:28Good night.
00:25:29Good night.
00:25:30Good night.
00:25:31Good night.
00:25:32Good night.
00:25:33Good night.
00:25:34Good night.
00:25:35Good night.
00:25:36Good night.
00:25:37Good night.
00:25:38Good night.
00:25:39Good night.
00:25:40Good night.
00:25:41Good night.
00:25:42Good night.
00:25:43Good night.
00:25:44Good night.
00:25:45Good night.
00:25:46Good night.
00:25:47Good night.
00:25:48Good night.
00:25:49It's you! It's you! No, no! You mustn't go near it! Get out of here, please!
00:26:09What happened, Jack? Teddy says there's a thing in our place. It's me right under the cut of my hand. Sit down, baby. I didn't wait to look.
00:26:16It's alive! It's alive! The hand was cut and bleeding in the position of the body. It changed!
00:26:24Here, take this. I'll call Danny Kaufman.
00:26:46Hello, Danny. Yeah? Something's happening. I've got to see you right away. Will you get over here as fast as you can? It's important.
00:27:02Uh, okay.
00:27:08He's on his way. I'll make some coffee and be right with you.
00:27:10Good deal, Miles. Thanks.
00:27:14Miles, what about Becky? Do you think she's all right?
00:27:17Dad, what are you doing in the basement this time of night? Working in my shop.
00:27:34I don't know what it was. Call it a premonition, but suddenly I had the feeling that Becky was in danger.
00:27:40I had to get to her as quickly as possible.
00:27:43I was going to ring the bell, but then I had a hunch I'd better be careful. Something was wrong in this house.
00:28:08Something was wrong in this house.
00:28:38It was all right.
00:28:40Stop it!
00:28:41
00:29:08Oh, my God.
00:29:38Oh, my God.
00:30:08Oh, my God.
00:30:38Oh, my God.
00:31:08Oh, my God.
00:31:38The same thing.
00:31:40I found another one in the cellar at Becky's house coming to life while I stood there watching it.
00:31:45It was Becky.
00:31:47Yeah?
00:31:47Well, I want to see one of these bodies.
00:31:50All right.
00:31:51Now, you're going to bed, and you're staying with her.
00:31:54Put on your clothes.
00:31:54We'll go to Jack's first.
00:31:56Got any coffee around here?
00:31:58Yeah, you'll find some in the kitchen.
00:31:59He doesn't believe me, Beck.
00:32:03He will.
00:32:04Somebody's playing games.
00:32:19Rough ones.
00:32:19There's a blood spot.
00:32:22What you saw was the body of a murdered man.
00:32:26Did you examine it carefully?
00:32:28Yes.
00:32:29I don't know what's happened to it.
00:32:31It was not an ordinary body, and there wasn't a mark on it.
00:32:33I checked it, too, when I put it on the table.
00:32:34There wasn't a scratch.
00:32:35You can kill a man by shoving an ice pick into the base of his brain and leaving a puncture so small the naked eye can't see it.
00:32:41Danny, you're ignoring the fact that this was not a normal body, and you heard what Teddy said about the hand.
00:32:45I heard lots of things Teddy said, and none of them made any sense.
00:32:49All right.
00:32:49Now, hold on to it, pal.
00:32:50I was here, too.
00:32:51So was Miles.
00:32:52Now, look.
00:32:53We took its fingerprints.
00:32:55Look at that.
00:32:56Tell me why it didn't have any.
00:32:58He didn't want any, so he took them off with acid.
00:33:00Stop trying to rationalize everything, will you?
00:33:02Let's face it.
00:33:03We have a mystery on our hands.
00:33:04Sure you have.
00:33:05A real one.
00:33:06Whose body was it, and where is it now?
00:33:08A completely normal mystery.
00:33:10Whatever it is, it's well within the bounds of human experience, and I don't think you ought to make any more of it.
00:33:14Look, I wouldn't if I hadn't looked in Becky's cellar.
00:33:17How do you explain away the body I saw there?
00:33:18I don't think you saw one there.
00:33:20You don't think I saw one here, either?
00:33:21I know you did, because three others saw it, too.
00:33:24But I dreamed up the second one.
00:33:26Doctors can have hallucinations, too.
00:33:28The mind is a strange and wonderful thing.
00:33:30I'm not sure it'll ever be able to figure itself out.
00:33:32Everything else, maybe.
00:33:33From the atom to the universe.
00:33:35Everything except itself.
00:33:36Nevertheless, I saw Becky's double, and the body that we saw here bore an uncomfortable resemblance to Jack.
00:33:42You're mighty uncomfortable.
00:33:43All right, let's go on to Becky's and have a look.
00:33:50All right, where's your girlfriend's double?
00:33:53Okay, skeptic.
00:33:54Lift the lid.
00:33:54There's a body here, all right.
00:34:08It's Becky's double.
00:34:09It sure is.
00:34:10Take another look.
00:34:15Now you see it, now you don't.
00:34:17It was there, half hidden by that blanket.
00:34:21You said you saw it there just now.
00:34:24I thought I did.
00:34:24Why did you come here tonight?
00:34:26You'd seen a dead man at Jack's, an average-sized man.
00:34:29The face and death was smooth and unlined, bland in expression, which often happens.
00:34:34You had just become aware of a curious, unexplainable epidemic mass hysteria.
00:34:39Men, women, and children suddenly convinced themselves that their relatives weren't their relatives at all.
00:34:44So your mind started playing tricks, and reality became unreality.
00:34:48The dead man became Jack's double in your eyes.
00:34:51Look, come off it, will you, Danny?
00:34:52I know, Miles.
00:34:53This is all hard to believe.
00:34:54But these things happen, even to witch doctors like me.
00:34:57I saw her here.
00:34:59She was real.
00:35:00You saw her all right in every tiny detail, as vividly as anyone has ever seen anything, but only in your mind.
00:35:07Look, Danny, you can talk all night, but you're not going to convince me.
00:35:12What in heaven's name are you doing in my cellar?
00:35:14Using it for an office, Mr. Driscoll.
00:35:16These gentlemen are patients, badly in need of psychiatric treatment.
00:35:19Oh, stop talking nonsense.
00:35:20I'm not.
00:35:21They've been having nightmares.
00:35:22Well, if you're drunk, you better sober up quick.
00:35:24The police are on their way.
00:35:25No, no, no, we're not drunk.
00:35:26Nothing as simple as that.
00:35:27Pull up a chair.
00:35:28Why, you're crazy, all of you.
00:35:30Hey, what's going on down there?
00:35:33Hello, Nick.
00:35:34Glad to see you.
00:35:35You saved these two characters at fifth of the station.
00:35:38They want to report finding a body and losing it.
00:35:42Where?
00:35:43When?
00:35:44At my place, about seven o'clock.
00:35:46Why did you wait so long to report it?
00:35:49You know better than that, Doc.
00:35:51Yeah, well, it was a curious sort of a body, and then it wasn't there anymore.
00:35:56I have a good mind to throw you both in jail.
00:36:00But if you'd seen it, you'd understand why we waited.
00:36:03Thin man, 5'10, fingerprints burnt off with acid.
00:36:08I've just seen it on the slab in the morgue.
00:36:11It turned up in a burning haystack on Mike Gessner's south pasture two hours ago.
00:36:16Now, break it up.
00:36:18Go on home.
00:36:19Come on.
00:36:19Well, you win.
00:36:29Pick up the marbles.
00:36:37Good morning.
00:36:38Good morning.
00:36:42Orange juice.
00:36:46How'd you like your eggs?
00:36:48Oh, any way you'd like them.
00:36:50Boil.
00:36:50Two minutes.
00:36:51Two minutes.
00:36:52Mm-hmm.
00:36:54Okay.
00:36:56You know, dragging you out of bed in the middle of the night was a lot of trouble, but it was worth it.
00:37:03Now, seriously.
00:37:05What's that?
00:37:06Who is it?
00:37:12It's a gas man.
00:37:14Morning, Doc.
00:37:17Good morning, Charlie.
00:37:19I guess I'm a little jittery.
00:37:21I'm not getting enough sleep.
00:37:22Well, I won't be bothering you anymore.
00:37:24I'm putting the meter outside on the patio.
00:37:26Okay.
00:37:27The eggs will be hard, Bob.
00:37:30Did you do this for your husband?
00:37:31Mm-hmm.
00:37:32Didn't your wife do this for you?
00:37:34Oh, yes.
00:37:35She liked to cook.
00:37:37That's one of the reasons why I'm single.
00:37:39I never was there when dinner was on the table.
00:37:42Well, take my advice and don't get mixed up with the doctor.
00:37:45There's seldom at home.
00:37:47What would you say if I told you I was already mixed up with the doctor?
00:37:51I'd say it was too good to be true.
00:37:53Things like this can happen all of a sudden.
00:37:56What's so all of a sudden about two people who've known each other most of their lives?
00:38:01Good morning.
00:38:02Oh, good morning.
00:38:03I thought I'd smell some coffee.
00:38:05Why don't you give me a call?
00:38:06I didn't want to wake Teddy.
00:38:07Oh, she's wide awake.
00:38:09Got a good sleep.
00:38:10Good.
00:38:12Look, I don't feel that she should go home right away, Miles.
00:38:15Would you mind taking in a couple of boarders for a while?
00:38:18Or do you have something else in mind?
00:38:20Well, I was toying with an idea, but you can stay.
00:38:26Here, Jack.
00:38:27Thank you, doll.
00:38:28Take it up to Teddy.
00:38:40Miles, did you make that appointment for me with the psychiatrist?
00:38:43Yes, two o'clock.
00:38:44I don't need him.
00:38:46I feel like such a fool.
00:38:48I woke up this morning and everything was all right.
00:38:50You don't know how relieved I am.
00:38:51Oh, yes, I do.
00:38:52Listen, would you give Becky a call and tell her about it?
00:38:54She was worried about you.
00:38:55All right.
00:38:56She's at my house.
00:38:57At your house?
00:38:58Why?
00:38:59Well, it's a long story, but she'll tell you all about it.
00:39:18Becky's still at his house.
00:39:23All right.
00:39:27Good morning.
00:39:28Good morning, Sally.
00:39:30Take a peek at what's in the reception room.
00:39:37Mother, why don't we go home?
00:39:39In a little while, Jimmy.
00:39:45He certainly made a quick recovery.
00:39:51I guess we all have.
00:39:53For driving home, I had a lot of questions and no answers.
00:39:56How could Jimmy and Wilma seem so normal now?
00:39:59Surely I had done nothing to cure them.
00:40:01Maybe they wanted me to feel secure, but why?
00:40:07Well.
00:40:08Hope you didn't forget the steaks.
00:40:09I never forget anything.
00:40:11Don't worry about him.
00:40:12He's completely housebroken.
00:40:14I need a martini, Beck.
00:40:16I need her, Olive.
00:40:17Doesn't matter.
00:40:18I want to pour it on the charcoal.
00:40:19I can't get this stuff to burn.
00:40:20Well, the martini isn't dry enough.
00:40:22I'll get you something to start it.
00:40:24For drinking purposes.
00:40:28You're looking ship-shaped.
00:40:29Thank you, sir.
00:40:30Here we are.
00:40:42There we are.
00:40:42Let's go.
00:41:05Jack!
00:41:06Jack!
00:41:12They're like huge seed pods.
00:41:20This must be the way that body in my closet was formed.
00:41:24Miles, where did they come from?
00:41:26I don't know.
00:41:27If they are seeds or seed pods, they must grow someplace on a plant, probably.
00:41:30And somebody or something wants this duplication to take place.
00:41:33But when they're finished, what happens to our bodies?
00:41:36I don't know.
00:41:37When the process is completed, probably the original is destroyed or disintegrates.
00:41:41No, wait!
00:41:42I'm sorry, but I take a dim view of watching my own destruction take place.
00:41:45There isn't any danger until they're completely formed.
00:41:47We learned that last night at your house.
00:41:49Your blank didn't change right away.
00:41:51Not until you fell asleep.
00:41:55Miles, when the change does take place, do you suppose there's any difference?
00:42:00There must be.
00:42:01Wilma noticed it.
00:42:02So did little Jimmy.
00:42:04So did I.
00:42:07My father.
00:42:10That must be what he was doing in the cellar last night, placing one of these.
00:42:14I'm sorry.
00:42:15I felt something was wrong, but I thought it was me because I've been away for so long.
00:42:19They have to be destroyed.
00:42:20All of them.
00:42:21They will be.
00:42:22Every one of them.
00:42:23Listen, we're going to have to search every building, every house in town.
00:42:26Men, women and children are going to have to be examined.
00:42:28We've got some phoning to do.
00:42:29I'm going to stay right here where I can watch them.
00:42:30I'm going to stay with them.
00:42:31And don't call the police.
00:42:32Nick Rivet didn't find any body on a burning haystack.
00:42:41Why didn't you call Danny?
00:42:42Maybe he can help.
00:42:43Danny?
00:42:44No.
00:42:45I'm afraid it's too late to call Danny too.
00:42:47Well, what are you going to do?
00:42:48Get help.
00:42:49I hope whatever's taking place is confined to Santa Mira.
00:42:52It isn't.
00:42:53Operator.
00:42:54Hello.
00:42:55This is Dr. Bunnell.
00:42:56This is an emergency.
00:42:57I want to talk to the Federal Bureau of Investigation in Los Angeles.
00:42:58Can you make them believe you?
00:42:59I've got it.
00:43:00Where did they come from?
00:43:01So much has been discovered in these past few years that anything is possible.
00:43:02Maybe the results of atomic radiation on plant life or animal life.
00:43:06Some weird alien organism.
00:43:07A mutation of some kind.
00:43:08Why should they take the form of people?
00:43:11Of us?
00:43:12I don't know.
00:43:13I don't know.
00:43:14Whatever it is, whatever intelligence or instinct it is that can govern the forming of human
00:43:30Whatever intelligence or instinct it is that can govern the forming of human flesh and blood out of thin air is, well, it's fantastically powerful.
00:43:39Beyond any comprehension, ligament, all that body in your cellar needed was a mind, and it was...
00:43:44And it was taking mine while I was asleep.
00:43:46I could take that pitchfork myself and...
00:43:49On your call to Los Angeles, doctor, they don't answer.
00:43:53Well, try again. That office is open day and night.
00:43:56If they've taken over the telephone office, we're dead.
00:44:00Is that me?
00:44:30This is an emergency! Emergency!
00:44:48Now look, there's been...
00:44:49Operator, get me a better connection.
00:44:53I'll try, doctor.
00:44:57It's no use. All the Los Angeles circuits are dead.
00:45:00All right, try Sacramento.
00:45:01Give me the state capital. I want to talk to the governor.
00:45:06The Sacramento circuits are busy, doctor. I'll call you back.
00:45:12All right.
00:45:14All right, I'll wait for your call.
00:45:16I'll take the phone outside.
00:45:25Jack!
00:45:26No, they've got the phone.
00:45:28Now, you and the girls, get in your car and make a run for it.
00:45:30First time you get to, yell for help.
00:45:32What about you?
00:45:33In a little while, that phone is going to ring.
00:45:34If there's nobody here to answer it, they'll know we've gone and blocked the roads out of town.
00:45:37I'll stall them until you're out of reach.
00:45:38Well, then what are you going to do?
00:45:39Try and find out what's in the back of this.
00:45:41I'm staying.
00:45:42No.
00:45:42Miles, don't ask me to leave you.
00:45:46Jack, get going.
00:45:48Miles, I can't leave you.
00:45:48Look, somebody's got to go or we don't get any help.
00:45:50Please, let's get out of here.
00:45:52Well, watch out for yourselves.
00:45:56Go over by the phone.
00:45:57Stay there.
00:45:58If it rings, call me.
00:46:12Hello.
00:46:30Is Dr. Bunnell there?
00:46:41Yes, I'll get him.
00:46:43Never mind.
00:46:44Just tell him the Sacramento circuits are still busy and ask him if he wants me to keep trying.
00:46:48All right, hold on.
00:46:49Miles, the circuits are still busy.
00:46:51Well, tell her to keep trying.
00:46:53Also, try San Francisco and Moss again.
00:47:02We're getting out of here right now.
00:47:03Well, where are we going?
00:47:03Sally.
00:47:04Sally.
00:47:07We're still unable to get through to Los Angeles.
00:47:10Do you wish me to keep trying?
00:47:12Dr. Bunnell?
00:47:14Dr. Bunnell?
00:47:17I needed someone I could trust and I figured Sally, my nurse, was my best bet.
00:47:21I decided to try to phone her to see if she was at home.
00:47:24Maybe they hadn't taken over the pay phones.
00:47:26I'll try the pay phone.
00:47:29Hey, Mac.
00:47:31Oh, hi, Doc.
00:47:32How are you?
00:47:32Listen, will you give me a couple of gallons fast?
00:47:34I'm in a hurry.
00:47:35Sure.
00:47:35Martha!
00:47:36Doc's in a hurry.
00:47:37Get the windshield, will you?
00:47:42I have to have the keys to open the gas tank.
00:47:47Somebody sick out this way?
00:47:49There's been an accident.
00:47:51Funny, we haven't heard about it.
00:47:53Well, it just happened.
00:47:55Before I could even get her number, I saw Mac closing the trunk of my car.
00:47:59He could have been checking my spare tire, but I didn't think so.
00:48:03That should do it.
00:48:05All set?
00:48:06All set, Doc.
00:48:06Fine, thanks.
00:48:07Put it on my belt, will you?
00:48:08Sure, Doc.
00:48:09Sure.
00:48:09Sure.
00:48:09Well, what's the matter?
00:48:39We better make it to Sally's house.
00:48:59We better make it to Sally's house.
00:49:01I wasn't sure now there was anyone I could trust, but I took a chance and drove to Sally's anyway.
00:49:21When I saw several cars in front of the house, I decided to play it safe.
00:49:32What's wrong?
00:49:33Probably nothing.
00:49:34But we're not going in there until I'm sure it's safe.
00:49:36Slide over under the wheel.
00:49:37And get out of here fast if anybody shows up looking for us.
00:49:39Maybe you'll sleep yet, Sally?
00:50:09Not yet, but she will be soon.
00:50:11There'll be no more tears.
00:50:14Shall I put this in her room?
00:50:15Yes, in her playpen.
00:50:17No, wait.
00:50:18Maybe I'd better take it.
00:50:20Why don't you go in, lads?
00:50:22We've been waiting for you.
00:50:32Becky, get going.
00:50:39Attention, all units.
00:50:46Attention, all units.
00:50:48Apprehend and detain Dr. Miles Spinell and Becky Driscoll, now believed heading north in a black and white Ford sedan.
00:50:55License number 2X37796.
00:51:00All units designated as roadblocks move to your stations.
00:51:03It is urgent.
00:51:05These two persons must be detained and not permitted to leave Santa Mira.
00:51:09Repeat.
00:51:10It is urgent.
00:51:15The order of a gun for a 1955 black and white Ford sedan.
00:51:19License number 3X377.
00:51:21Son of a gun.
00:51:22Son of a gun.
00:51:22Son of a gun.
00:51:22Son of a gun.
00:51:23Son of a gun.
00:51:23Son of a gun.
00:51:23Son of a gun.
00:51:23Son of a gun.
00:51:51I'll try to make it to my office.
00:52:02Cut into that alley on the right.
00:52:21Cut into that alley.
00:52:51Cut into that alley.
00:53:21Cut into that alley.
00:53:51He's got to get through.
00:53:53Here, now take two of these.
00:53:55I'll help you to stay awake.
00:53:56We can't close our eyes all night.
00:54:16We may wake up changed to something evil and inhuman.
00:54:22In my practice, I've seen how people have allowed their humanity to drain away.
00:54:28Only it happened slowly instead of all at once.
00:54:31They didn't seem to mind.
00:54:34But just some people, Miles.
00:54:35All of us, a little bit.
00:54:38We harden our hearts, grow callous.
00:54:42Only when we have to fight to stay human do we realize how precious it is to us.
00:54:47How dear.
00:54:48As you are to me.
00:55:03Maybe that's Jack trying to find us.
00:55:06He'd know better than to use the phone.
00:55:07Where is he?
00:55:12Why doesn't he come?
00:55:13Just like any Saturday morning.
00:55:28Glenn Perlman.
00:55:31Bill Bittner.
00:55:32Jim Clark and his wife Shirley and their kids.
00:55:35People I've known all my life.
00:55:37What time is it?
00:55:407.45.
00:55:43Yeah, I know.
00:55:45It's too early to be so busy.
00:55:47What are they doing here?
00:55:50There's the answer.
00:55:52There must be strangers in town.
00:55:55They've been waiting for the bus to come and go.
00:55:56There isn't another one through here until 11.
00:56:26Farmers.
00:56:56Grimaldi.
00:56:59Pixley.
00:57:01Kessner.
00:57:02Crescent City.
00:57:04If you have Crescent City families, step over to truck number one.
00:57:08Crescent City.
00:57:10The first truck.
00:57:13Red Bank.
00:57:14All with Red Bank families or contacts, go to truck number two.
00:57:18All with Red Bank families or contacts, truck number two.
00:57:23Havenhurst.
00:57:24The third truck.
00:57:26Havenhurst.
00:57:27The third truck.
00:57:29Milltown.
00:57:30The third truck.
00:57:31Milltown.
00:57:33The third truck.
00:57:34Dali Springs.
00:57:36The third truck.
00:57:38Dali Springs.
00:57:39The third truck.
00:57:40First our town.
00:57:41And all the towns around us.
00:57:44It's a malignant disease spreading through the whole country.
00:57:48That's all for today.
00:57:50Be ready again tomorrow.
00:57:51Tomorrow.
00:57:51I can't wait for Jack any longer.
00:58:08Stay here.
00:58:08You're not going out there.
00:58:09I've got to stop tonight.
00:58:11Wait.
00:58:11We're safe here.
00:58:17I'm here.
00:58:18I hope we're not too late.
00:58:19Jack.
00:58:19Thank God.
00:58:22Jack.
00:58:22The whole town's been taken over by the pods.
00:58:24Not quite.
00:58:25They're still you and Becky.
00:58:27Miles.
00:58:28It would have been so much easier if you'd gone to sleep last night.
00:58:31Now relax.
00:58:32We're here to help you.
00:58:33You know better than that.
00:58:37Where do you want us to put them?
00:58:39Would you like to watch them grow?
00:58:40No thanks.
00:58:41Put them in there.
00:58:43There's nothing to be afraid of.
00:58:44We're not going to hurt you.
00:58:45But once you understand, you'll be grateful.
00:58:48Remember how Teddy and I fought against it.
00:58:50Well, we were wrong.
00:58:52You mean Teddy doesn't mind?
00:58:53Of course not.
00:58:54She feels exactly the way I do.
00:58:56Let us go.
00:58:57Look, we'll leave town.
00:58:57We won't come back.
00:58:58We can't let you go.
00:58:59You're dangerous to us.
00:59:02Don't fight it, Miles.
00:59:03It's no use.
00:59:04Sooner or later, you'll have to go to sleep.
00:59:07I'll wait for you in the hall.
00:59:09Miles, you and I are scientific men.
00:59:13You can understand the wonder of what's happened.
00:59:15Now just think.
00:59:16Less than a month ago, Santa Mera was like any other town.
00:59:19People with nothing but problems.
00:59:22Then out of the sky came a solution.
00:59:25Seeds drifting through space for years took root in a farmer's field.
00:59:28From the seeds came pods, which have the power to reproduce themselves in the exact likeness
00:59:34of any form of life.
00:59:37So that's how it began.
00:59:40Out of the sky.
00:59:41Your new bodies are growing in there.
00:59:46They're taking you over, cell for cell, atom for atom.
00:59:51There's no pain.
00:59:53Suddenly, while you're asleep, they'll absorb your minds, your memories, and you're reborn into
01:00:00an untroubled world.
01:00:02Where everyone's the same.
01:00:04Exactly.
01:00:06What a world.
01:00:08We're not the last humans left.
01:00:11They'll destroy you.
01:00:14Tomorrow you won't want them to.
01:00:16Tomorrow you'll be one of us.
01:00:21I love Becky.
01:00:24Tomorrow will I feel the same.
01:00:26There's no need for love.
01:00:29No emotion.
01:00:31Then you have no feelings.
01:00:32Only the instinct to survive.
01:00:35You can't love or be loved.
01:00:37Am I right?
01:00:37You say it as if it were terrible.
01:00:39Believe me, it isn't.
01:00:40You've been in love before.
01:00:42It didn't last.
01:00:44It never does.
01:00:45Love.
01:00:47Desire.
01:00:47Ambition.
01:00:48Faith.
01:00:49Without them, life's so simple.
01:00:51Believe me.
01:00:53I don't want any part of it.
01:00:55You're forgetting something, Miles.
01:00:57What's that?
01:00:58You have no choice.
01:01:00I guess we haven't any choice.
01:01:08Good.
01:01:08Good.
01:01:18I want to love and be loved.
01:01:20I want your children.
01:01:25I don't want a world without love or grief or beauty.
01:01:28I'd rather die.
01:01:30No.
01:01:32No.
01:01:35Not unless there's no other way.
01:01:38Why didn't they just give us a shot or a sleeping pill or something?
01:01:41Drug stall of mine.
01:01:45Maybe that's the reason.
01:01:55No, it wouldn't work.
01:01:57I might get one or even two, but I couldn't possibly get three of them.
01:02:00You're forgetting something, darling.
01:02:01Me.
01:02:02It isn't three against one.
01:02:03It's three against two.
01:02:04Give me enough.
01:02:07No.
01:02:07No.
01:02:36No.
01:03:07Go over by the desk.
01:03:37What's going on in there?
01:03:47Miles!
01:03:48Unlock the door.
01:03:50Miles, open the door.
01:03:51Open the door, Miles.
01:03:52Miles!
01:03:53Got it!
01:03:54Open the door.
01:03:59Our only hope is to make it to the highway.
01:04:27Well, that does it.
01:04:42The only other way is out the front door and there's bound to be somebody watching.
01:04:46We'll have to chance it.
01:05:02Keep your eyes a little wide and blank.
01:05:04Show no interest or excitement.
01:05:09Well, Sam, we're finally with you.
01:05:16They were supposed to let me know that the chief said he had phoned the station and then I'd
01:05:23get the call.
01:05:24He phoned, but the line was busy.
01:05:26He's calling again now.
01:05:31Ah!
01:05:32Watch out!
01:05:33I'm sorry, Miles.
01:05:34Miles.
01:05:35I'm sorry, Miles.
01:05:36Miles.
01:05:37I'm sorry, Miles.
01:05:38I'm sorry.
01:05:39I'm sorry, Miles.
01:05:44I'm sorry.
01:05:45I'm sorry, Miles.
01:05:51I'm sorry, Miles.
01:06:07I'm sorry.
01:06:19This is Janczak. They got away. Turn the main siren on.
01:06:49There. Stacks.
01:06:58Only a few steps more.
01:07:17Come on. They went this way.
01:07:40They're over there.
01:07:55They're over there.
01:08:02They're over there.
01:08:09They're over there.
01:08:16They're over there.
01:08:23They're over there.
01:08:30They're over there.
01:08:37They're over there.
01:08:44They're over there.
01:08:51They're over there.
01:08:58They're over there.
01:09:05They're over there.
01:09:20They're over there.
01:09:27I can't.
01:09:28I can't.
01:09:29I can't.
01:09:36They're over there.
01:09:43They're over there.
01:09:45They're over there.
01:09:49They're over there.
01:09:59They're over there.
01:10:04They must be in the tunnel.
01:10:34You can't get away from us, we're not going to hurt you!
01:11:02Not in the tunnel.
01:11:07All right, everybody outside.
01:11:09Come on, check the hills.
01:11:11Everybody move.
01:11:19Miles, I can't stay awake much longer.
01:11:24I think they're all gone now.
01:11:27We'd better start, or we'll never make it to the highway.
01:12:24Miles, I've never heard anything so beautiful.
01:12:31It means we're not the only ones left to know what love is.
01:12:34Stay here and pray they're as human as they sound.
01:12:37Bye, Doc.
01:12:38Bye.
01:12:39Bye, Doc.
01:12:44Bye, Doc.
01:12:45Bye, Doc.
01:13:01Bye, Doc.
01:13:10This is station KCAA, the 24-hour platter parade, the station of music and
01:13:40music and music and music.
01:14:10Becky, Becky, Becky, Becky, where are you?
01:14:25I'm here, Miles.
01:14:30You didn't go to sleep.
01:14:31So tired.
01:14:33They weren't people.
01:14:35It was more of them.
01:14:37They're growing thousands of pods in greenhouses.
01:14:38We've got to get away.
01:14:41I'm exhausted, Miles.
01:14:43Miles, I can't wait.
01:15:01We can't make it without sleep.
01:15:03Yes, we can.
01:15:08I went to sleep, Miles, and it happened.
01:15:26Oh, Becky.
01:15:31They were right.
01:15:33I should never have left you.
01:15:35Stop acting like a fool, Miles, and accept us.
01:15:40No.
01:15:43Never.
01:15:44She's in here.
01:15:45She's in here.
01:15:47Get him.
01:15:48Get him.
01:15:49I've been afraid a lot of times in my life, but I didn't know the real meaning of fear
01:16:02until...
01:16:03until I had kissed Becky.
01:16:05A moment's sleep, and the girl I loved was an inhuman enemy bent on my destruction.
01:16:12That moment's sleep was death to Becky's soul, just as it had been for Jack and Teddy
01:16:16and Dan Kaufman and all the rest.
01:16:18Their bodies were now hosts harboring an alien form of life, a cosmic form, which to survive
01:16:23must take over every human man.
01:16:25So I ran.
01:16:26I ran.
01:16:27I ran as little Jimmy Grimaldi had run the other day.
01:16:30My only hope was to get away from Santa Mira, to get to the highway, to warn the others
01:16:34of what was happening.
01:16:50Wait a minute.
01:16:51Come on.
01:16:52We gotta go.
01:16:53No, wait.
01:16:53Let him go.
01:16:53They'll never believe you.
01:16:55Help.
01:16:56Help.
01:16:57Help.
01:16:57Wait.
01:16:58Help.
01:16:59Help.
01:16:59Help.
01:17:00Wait.
01:17:00Wait.
01:17:01Wait.
01:17:02Stop.
01:17:02Stop.
01:17:03Stop.
01:17:03And listen to me.
01:17:04Listen to me.
01:17:06Listen.
01:17:07Listen.
01:17:07Those people that are coming after me, they're not human.
01:17:10Listen to me.
01:17:11We're in danger.
01:17:12Danger.
01:17:13Go on.
01:17:13Get out of here.
01:17:15You're in danger.
01:17:16Freeze.
01:17:17Get out of here.
01:17:18Go on.
01:17:18Get out of here.
01:17:19Get out of here.
01:17:19Get out of here.
01:17:20All of us.
01:17:20All of us.
01:17:21All of us.
01:17:22All of us.
01:17:23Now listen.
01:17:24Listen to me.
01:17:25There is no human being left.
01:17:26It's out of here.
01:17:27Not one.
01:17:28Hey.
01:17:29Hey, stop.
01:17:30Pull up.
01:17:30Pull over to the side of the road.
01:17:32I need your help.
01:17:33Something terrible has happened.
01:17:34Go on, you drunk.
01:17:35Get out of the street.
01:17:36Get out of here.
01:17:37Go on.
01:17:37Are you crazy, you big idiot?
01:17:53Look.
01:17:54You fools.
01:17:55You're in danger.
01:17:57Can't you see?
01:17:58They're after you.
01:18:00They're after all of us.
01:18:01Our wives, our children, everyone.
01:18:03They're here already.
01:18:04You're next.
01:18:08You're next.
01:18:09You're next.
01:18:10You're next.
01:18:12You're next.
01:18:13You're next.
01:18:22You don't believe a word of this, do you?
01:18:24Sure, it's fantastic, but it happened.
01:18:26Don't just sit there measuring me for a straight check.
01:18:28I can do something.
01:18:29Get out of the phone.
01:18:29Call for help.
01:18:30Oh, what's the use?
01:18:50Oh, what do you think?
01:18:51Will psychiatry help?
01:18:53If all this is a nightmare, yes.
01:18:56Of course it's a nightmare.
01:18:57Plants from another world taking over human beings.
01:19:00Mad as a march hare.
01:19:05What have we here?
01:19:07Ran his truck through a red light.
01:19:09Greyhound bust smacked him broadside and tipped him over.
01:19:12Put him in the OR.
01:19:13Will you take over Bunnell for me, doctor?
01:19:15Certainly.
01:19:16How badly is he hurt?
01:19:18Both legs, left arm, broken all the bits.
01:19:22We had to dig him out from under the most peculiar things I ever saw.
01:19:26What things?
01:19:27Well, I don't know what they are.
01:19:29I never saw them before.
01:19:30They look like great big seed pods.
01:19:34Seed pods?
01:19:36Where was the truck coming from?
01:19:38Santa Mira.
01:19:38Get on your radio and sound at all points along.
01:19:47Block all highways, stop all traffic, and call every law enforcement agency in the state.
01:19:54Operally, get me the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
01:19:56Yes, it's an emergency.
