00:00:00I think it's time I cut out now.
00:00:10Don't be a drag.
00:00:11You know how you flip me.
00:00:12I'm hip.
00:00:13So?
00:00:14So leave me here.
00:00:15If my father dug this scene, he'd put small round holes in your head.
00:00:21Well, I guess it is pretty late.
00:00:23I really have to get in.
00:00:25Good night, Pop.
00:00:26You're a dad.
00:00:27And you're a doll.
00:00:28Later.
00:00:29Later.
00:00:31Later.

00:03:54I'm sorry.
00:03:55I'm sorry.
00:03:56I'm sorry.
00:03:57I'm sorry.
00:03:58I'm sorry.
00:03:59I'm sorry.
00:04:00You know, we have to find out whether you need ethyl or regular.
00:04:07Well, you sit over there. The doctor will be with you in a moment.
00:04:12There's some magazines there, if you care to look at them.
00:04:20Dr. Kavanaugh wanted in pathology.
00:04:23Dr. Kavanaugh wanted in pathology.
00:04:27Oh, doctor, this is Mr. Johnson. He's here for an immediate transfusion.
00:04:31I see. Well, Mr. Johnson, we'll look you over right away.
00:04:33Nadine, will you take him into the lab and run his test?
00:04:35Oh, no, he's having a fast pint of the fly. No test.
00:04:40Would you come inside, please?
00:04:52Sit down, won't you?
00:04:55Now, Mr. Johnson, why don't you want a blood test?
00:04:58I choose not to reveal a reason.
00:05:01I see. Well, then I suggest you try another doctor.
00:05:04You have no blood here.
00:05:07Yes, we have blood.
00:05:08But there isn't a doctor on Earth who'll transfuse blood without first learning the patient's type,
00:05:13RH factor, and other peculiarities.
00:05:15The wrong kind would probably kill you.
00:05:17I must have blood. I'm dying. I am type O.
00:05:21I'm sorry, but I can't take your word for any of those facts.
00:05:25Get away from me!
00:05:28Observe.
00:05:31No bleeding.
00:05:33It will bleed in some moments, but then thinly and sporadically.
00:05:38Have you been to see another doctor?
00:05:40None that you know.
00:05:42A hematologist? Blood doctor?
00:05:44Will you give me the transfusion?
00:05:47Not unless you submit to a test.
00:05:49Then without a specimen of my blood for study, it is impossible.
00:05:53Impossible.
00:05:57You will test this blood.
00:06:00Then you will know and you will prescribe.
00:06:03You may study it in all the ways of your kind and you may learn,
00:06:06but you may not speak.
00:06:08You will not, you cannot transmit to any other being your knowledge of my tragedy.
00:06:20I've got a terrible headache.
00:06:21I am ready for your test.
00:06:24I'm glad you changed your mind.
00:06:27Take off your coat.
00:06:31This won't hurt.
00:06:37Fantastic.
00:06:38The eglutinin disintegrating at an uninterrupted rate,
00:06:42resulting in the destruction of the cellular structure of the blood.
00:06:49It's impossible.
00:06:53There, that should do it.
00:06:55How long have you been a nurse?
00:06:57I graduated seven years ago.
00:06:58You are a good one.
00:07:00That's no question to be asking a nurse.
00:07:02You relax now, I'll be right back.
00:07:04Wait.
00:07:05Do you work always in hospitals or may you treat private cases?
00:07:09Well, I special occasionally.
00:07:11That is good.
00:07:12I would like you to work for me.
00:07:14Oh, you would.
00:07:16Doing what?
00:07:17Preserving my health.
00:07:19Seeing to it that I do not expire.
00:07:22Mr. Johnson, no one in this wide world can guarantee life.
00:07:26Nor in any other, I fear.
00:07:28No, I suppose not.
00:07:30What monies do you receive for the work of your profession?
00:07:33Mr. Johnson, that's a very personal question.
00:07:36It is.
00:07:37If you will serve me, I shall pay you $200 each week.
00:07:41Let me tell you something, sir.
00:07:42No nurse would dream of getting $200 a week.
00:07:45Well, it's ridiculous.
00:07:47Besides, it has the sound of something very unethical.
00:07:50Would it still be unethical if Dr. Rochelle asked you to serve me?
00:07:53Well, if Dr. Rochelle assigned me to your case, I'd take it.
00:07:56I see.
00:07:57Would you ask the doctor to come to me?
00:08:01Yes, Mr. Johnson.
00:08:03And you to administer 500 cc's of Typo every night until further orders from me.
00:08:08Yes, doctor.
00:08:10Just what is wrong with him?
00:08:12Well, it's very interesting. He has...
00:08:18I'm... I'm not positive.
00:08:21There are indications of internal hemorrhage.
00:08:24I see.
00:08:25How long does he have?
00:08:27I don't know.
00:08:29I'm doing everything I can.
00:08:31From now on, it's in the hands of God.
00:08:56Did you do all this?
00:08:57What?
00:08:58Mr... I've got to hand it to you.
00:09:00I've never met anyone who commits so many violations all at once.
00:09:04He seems aggressive. Why?
00:09:06I'll talk to him, Mr. Johnson. You get in the car.
00:09:09I know him.
00:09:13Now, don't start writing until I explain.
00:09:16How do you plan to explain away a no parking sign, a fire plug,
00:09:19a red zone in the wrong side of the street?
00:09:21I think this man's won himself a ticket.
00:09:23He's in a critical state.
00:09:24Now, you put away that pad and stop playing storm trooper.
00:09:26I've got to send this man home.
00:09:28You say he's critical, sunshine. He's critical.
00:09:30But I'll just tag along, see that he gets there safe and sound.
00:09:33Then maybe I'll take you in.
00:09:35Why? I haven't done anything.
00:09:37Why not?
00:09:41Here, buddy. You might enjoy a little light reading.
00:09:52Yeah.
00:10:15Why did you pick up the cop?
00:10:18He followed me from the hospital.
00:10:19I told you not to go driving a car before you learn how.
00:10:22Come into the house, Jerrod.
00:10:24I want you to prepare a room.
00:10:26You having company?
00:10:34Which bedroom is she going to sleep in?
00:10:36Open the room in the south wing.
00:10:38I shall be in the kitchen.
00:10:40Do not come in there.
00:10:49Come in.
00:11:19I shall be in the kitchen.
00:11:49I shall be in the kitchen.
00:12:20Jeremy.
00:12:24I do not pay you to spy on me.
00:12:27Should you do so again,
00:12:29I shall eliminate you.
00:12:31Sorry, boss. I won't do it again.
00:12:35Go.
00:12:37Prepare the nurse's room.
00:12:49You're expected.
00:12:51Come on in.
00:13:19Johnson's in the living room.
00:13:21I'm Jeremy.
00:13:23If there's anything you need, baby,
00:13:25just ring for me.
00:13:27All I need on this job is blood.
00:13:29I'll see what I can do.
00:13:35I'm sorry I'm late, Mr. Johnson,
00:13:37but I had to clean up my desk at the hospital.
00:13:39Do not excuse yourself.
00:13:41Come, I will show you to your room.
00:13:43All right.
00:13:45Jeremy and I are alone here, Miss Story.
00:13:47You're the first person who's been in my house.
00:13:49We've only been here a month.
00:13:51Jeremy, it is time that you saw
00:13:53that all the outside entrances are secure.
00:13:55Right, boss.
00:13:57Bring Miss Story's bag upstairs.
00:13:59Your room is upstairs, Miss Story.
00:14:01You have a lovely house here, Mr. Johnson.
00:14:03It is adequate, Miss Story.
00:14:05Thank you, Mr. Johnson.
00:14:09Thank you, Miss Story.
00:14:11You have a lovely house here, Mr. Johnson.
00:14:13It is adequate, Miss Story.
00:14:23Here you will sleep.
00:14:25I've received blood this day.
00:14:27You will have no further duties
00:14:29until tomorrow.
00:14:31Then I'll say good night, Mr. Johnson.
00:14:39Mr. Johnson!
00:14:45Yes, Miss Story.
00:14:47You locked my door.
00:14:49I did, yes.
00:14:51Why?
00:14:53You do not wish it?
00:14:55If my door is going to be locked,
00:14:57I'd like to do my own locking.
00:14:59In the place from which I come,
00:15:01no person would dare sleep in insecure quarters.
00:15:05Just where do you come from?
00:15:07I believe your expression was
00:15:09good night, Miss Story.
00:15:11Yes.
00:15:13Good night, Mr. Johnson.
00:15:37Good night.
00:16:07Time narrows.
00:16:33There is death upon
00:16:35upon Davana. Davana must endure. Speak of the earth creatures. They are second-stage
00:16:42subhuman, weak and full of fright. Speak of their blood. It may be as ours. I have
00:16:49sent to you 30 cubits for study. There must be more. The conquered enemies
00:16:54dwindle in the pens of pasture and time constricts. It is soon that we shall all
00:16:59perish. Perhaps the blood of this planet shall answer. Your mission upon this
00:17:05globe is to be accomplished in five out of six phases. In the first you will
00:17:11study all characteristics of the earth subhumans. Phase one is steady. In the
00:17:17second phase you shall increase the quantity of earth blood which you are
00:17:22transmitting to Davana. Phase two is more earth blood. For phase three we must have
00:17:27a live specimen, a subhuman to be used in vivisectory research. Phase three is a
00:17:34live specimen. You are phase four in which earth blood value will be
00:17:39determined by your survival or your death. Phase four is my life or death. If
00:17:45earth blood preserves your life, phase five will be the conquest, subjugation
00:17:51and pasturing of the earth subhumans upon your order. Phase five is conquest
00:17:57subjugation and pasturing if I live. Phase six will be the utter obliteration
00:18:03of this planet by your order dependent upon the anticipated failure of your
00:18:08experiment. Phase six is destruction of this planet if I am to die. Phase six
00:18:15concludes the instructions. Phase six concludes. I am returning.
00:18:57Up already boss? After you've taken my story of food, prepare the automobile. You
00:19:10will take me to the public library. I hope you eat something this morning. I'm
00:19:13getting sick of throwing away good food. Anything else boss man? No nothing.
00:19:27I'm getting sick of throwing away good food. Anything else boss man? No nothing.
00:19:57Anybody home? Is that you Jeremy? Yeah I got breakfast. Leave it on the bureau will you? I
00:20:05sure will. After a stretch here I'd be able to get a job at the Ritz. There at
00:20:09least I get a tip. Why doesn't Mr. Johnson pay you very much? He pays me too much. I
00:20:14think the guy's short a few nuts and bolts. Would it be out of line for me to ask you
00:20:18just how much he does pay you? Nothing you could do would be out of line baby.
00:20:22Pays me 300 a week. What in the world for? Most anything. Such as? Such as making
00:20:29sure nobody goes near the cellar and such as changing little gold ingots he
00:20:32gives me into US money. What do you do kid? I'm here to keep Mr. Johnson healthy.
00:20:38I'm already healthy. What time you get off work? I'm not here to keep you happy
00:20:43Jeremy.
00:20:53Mr. Johnson you strike me as a very healthy man. I am pleased. Perhaps your
00:20:58treatments will prevent my predicted death. For a man who thinks he's going to die
00:21:03you seem to be pretty casual about it. How can one not be casual? Death is not a
00:21:08remarkable thing. No but it's not exactly something one looks forward to with
00:21:13giddy anticipation. That is true nor with undue dread. You have no further duties
00:21:19until this evening so you may do as you like with your time until then. Thanks I
00:21:23think I'll try that pool of yours.
00:21:31You're gonna get yourself wet. I think everybody in this house could use a
00:21:35little exercise. Well save me a little water for when I get back from town. I'll
00:21:39do that. You could probably use it. Hey I've got a hook and line inside maybe I
00:21:44ought to go get it huh? I'm afraid Jeremy you just haven't got the right bait.
00:22:00Morning. I represent the airway vacuum cleaning company. You the gentleman in the
00:22:04house? This is my house. Crazy. I'd like to show you the product. You wish that I
00:22:09purchase your machine. I don't want you to purchase mister. I just want to give
00:22:12you a free demonstration. You want to purchase you purchase. You don't want to
00:22:14purchase you don't purchase. I ain't gonna force you to purchase. Now this is one of
00:22:18our standard attachments. We'll clean any rub you got in the house no matter how
00:22:21deep the pile or how delicate the fabric. Ain't that something? I do not wish to
00:22:25purchase. Hey let me finish will you? This as they say in the vernacular is the
00:22:30darling of the vacuum cleaning world. You ever trouble with stopped up pipes or
00:22:34drains like that kitchen at a cellar? Or with this little baby your problem is
00:22:37over. See it goes right into the pipe. No persistence. Leave my house. Give me a
00:22:43chance will ya? It's just a demonstration. You see this little baby at work in your
00:22:47own cellar you turn flip-flops. No flip-flops. No flip-flops. Look buddy let me have
00:22:53five minutes of your time in your own cellar. I'll prove to you that this little
00:22:56baby can do what no other vacuum cleaner in the world can do. In my cellar? That's
00:23:01right. Take only five minutes. Come right in young man. I shall be glad to see your
00:23:06machine in operation. Crazy.
00:23:18Now will you just take a look at the dirt in that drain pipe buddy? Ain't that a
00:23:21shame? You never know when a thing like that's gonna give you trouble. Well we'll
00:23:24have it out of there in a jiffy.
00:23:29It's a very simple operation.
00:24:07Jeremy I've ordered you not to sound the warning horn or make any high decibel
00:24:18noises while near me. Sorry boss the jerk cut me off. Jeremy who are those
00:24:25gentlemen? Those aren't gentlemen those are bums. Bums? Those characters have hit
00:24:31the bottom of the barrel. They live from one day to the next just for a shot of
00:24:34cheap hooch. They're unfortunate. Unfortunate? They're happy. Give them a
00:24:39little wine or a bottle of hair tonic and they're tickled pink. He is too. What'd you
00:24:44say boss? Nothing. Jeremy I want you to invite one no three of those gentlemen
00:24:51to dinner tonight. Dinner? Are you kidding? Tonight Jeremy. You'll proceed to the
00:24:57library. Well anything you say.
00:25:04I'll be finished here at five. Got you boss.
00:25:34Car laid up doc? Oh Harry yeah I'm afraid that guy has a chronic illness. Where he
00:25:41going? Over to see Nadine and our patient. Hop in I'll give you a lift.
00:25:45Thanks. I hope you and Nadine stay on friendly terms. At least until I'm back
00:25:50on wheels.
00:27:04Hi Harry. Hi. Well you look as if you're enjoying your job. I've got to keep in
00:27:32shape. I see you've got yourself a new chauffeur. Uh-huh.
00:27:42Clear the road will ya? Well if it isn't Pittsburgh Perrin the riot of every cell
00:27:47block. Officer Shareborn. Classmate? Yeah Jeremy here spends his summers with us.
00:27:53What's he doing here? Jeremy ask the doctor to come into my house.
00:28:03I guess I've been invited inside. I'll show you in doctor. Is Jeremy really a
00:28:12criminal? Stupid crook. Can't imagine what he's doing working for a man at Johnson's
00:28:16class. He's probably trying to reform. Come on in I'll build you a cup of coffee
00:28:21while the brains talk. Thank You Jeremy. Give me a go. I assume doctor you have
00:28:33further scrutinized my blood. I certainly have Mr. Johnson and there are many
00:28:38questions I'd like to ask you. That desire is predictable. How many answers
00:28:44you receive however is not predictable. Have you spoken to anyone of this? No I
00:28:50feel it best to keep it an absolute secret. An excellent feeling doctor. Can
00:28:56you tell me anything that I do not know? I can tell you this your blood is
00:29:02different from any I've ever studied in my entire career. In what way? In the
00:29:07first place no man on earth should be able to live with such a low count of
00:29:11red corpuscles as you have. Continue. In the second place your blood's behaving
00:29:15in an impossible manner. The gluten is breaking down destroying the basic
00:29:20structure of the blood itself. The result is... Is evaporated blood. Well that's an
00:29:25oversimplification. Blood within the veins couldn't possibly evaporate. The
00:29:29more precise term would be... Evaporation as a term would suffice doctor. Have you
00:29:36found a cause? Not yet. But you think you will. I may. I'm already neglecting my
00:29:44other work to devote all my time to this problem. God forbid such a dreadful new
00:29:49plague should strike the earth. Yes. God forbid. You seem already aware of what's
00:29:56happening to you. I am aware doctor. If a cure is not soon forthcoming the blood
00:30:02of my body will turn to dust and I will die. As a doctor it's my job to try to
00:30:07cheer up the patient. That is an infantile attitude doctor. Continue your studies
00:30:12and return to me again when you have learned more. As perhaps I shall learn
00:30:17something soon. I feel that time is the great element in this case. Time is
00:30:22indeed the only element doctor.
00:30:32I hope you will return soon doctor.
00:30:38Boss that cop in the kitchen is filling Nadine with lies about me. You are safe
00:30:42in my employer Jeremy. Tell the policeman to take the doctor away. Then you will go
00:30:47to the park and collect my dinner guests. But boss. Go.
00:30:56And I'll pick you up at seven. All right speedy you win. But I have to be home early.
00:31:01Well well a big lover. What's your angle here Pittsburgh? It's straight. The doc is
00:31:06waiting in the car for you flat foot. It better be straight buddy. Because from now
00:31:10on I'll have my eye on this place. See you tonight. Okay. Lousy cop. Jeremy I'm
00:31:19disappointed in you. You have such an honest face. Did you swipe my bathing cap
00:31:23because I can't seem to find it. No. I gotta go now.
00:31:40Big Freed. Your buddy. Who's bringing it? My boss. He's a crackpot philanthropist.
00:32:01Any chaser? You get a free fifth of French Cognac when you leave. I'm witches. Got a
00:32:13couple of friends? Very then. Hey Steino. Meeting hours. Hell no drunk.
00:32:23He's a jolly good fellow. He's a jolly good fellow. He's a jolly good fellow.
00:32:36Why would anyone want to be a cop? Or a nurse. There must be something about helping people
00:32:54that gets into characters like us. Couldn't be the money. Or the hours. Do you like this
00:33:00job you're on? No. It's different. They all are but this one's especially interesting.
00:33:05Johnson's some kind of a foreigner isn't he? He's got a dialect but I can't place it. I have to ask
00:33:11him. He sure is a cold one. He's cold and odd and brilliant. He has a fantastically powerful mind
00:33:18and yet he seems unaware of the simplest things. Like how to park a car. Why does he wear those
00:33:25glasses? I don't know. Can't discuss my patient's condition you know. I'm interested in the condition
00:33:32of a certain nurse. Don't worry about me. Did you ever try and tangle with a nurse? No but I've seen
00:33:37a couple of heavyweights take their count when they try. There's a few things in our training
00:33:41that might surprise you. You want to bet? I guess this is your house. Jeremy!
00:34:03Thank you Harry. I had a wonderful evening. That's my standard treatment for high-class nurses.
00:34:08Creeping a two-bit crook. I don't like the feel of this place. Be careful in there Nadine. I'll be
00:34:15alright. I'm a big girl now. Sure. Good night. Take the case directly to the living room and return
00:34:29here. I have further duties for you. Carefully. It's in here king peru. Are you ready for your transfusion Mr. Johnson? It's almost that time. I will be ready in an hour. Come to the living room then.
00:34:46This night I am transmitting the blood of phase two. The study of phase one is in progress. Within 24
00:34:58hours I shall locate and transmit the live specimen of Earth's subhuman as you have instructed. I have
00:35:07no information on my own probability of life or death. That's right. I put cramps on it. Looking
00:35:16for prints. Probably won't find any. Yeah? Yes. Yes. They're the same neck punctures as on the others.
00:35:24All right Lieutenant. I'll let you know the minute we hear a thing. That woman was a twelfth wasn't she?
00:35:31Thirteenth. It's a miracle the papers haven't put them all together. I can just see those vampire
00:35:37headlines. Any break in the case yet? Nothing. This killer is a fiend of the most diabolical kind.
00:35:44Interested in only one thing. Blood. What can he do with it? He's no idiot. He has an ugly device
00:35:52that burns through the victim's eyes. Burns the brain right in the skull. Then he takes the blood.
00:35:58Thirteen. Maybe more. Missing persons rates gone up sharply. The airways vacuum cleaner company's
00:36:07got men out looking for a door-to-door salesman. They probably don't want the salesman they want
00:36:12the cleaner. Oh don't worry George you'll crack it. Crack it I can't even scratch it. All I can
00:36:19think of is who'll be next. Have you any close relations in the city Miss Story? Why? Somebody
00:36:33leave me a million bucks? Merely the curiosity of the patient. Well I have a 200-pound aunt in
00:36:38Detroit that sends me a box of saltwater candy every Christmas. Are you close to your aunt? She
00:36:44raised me as a child. Every now and then she gets on the phone to have a nice long collect chat with
00:36:48me. You may increase the flow of blood this time Miss Story. Mr. Johnson for a man who didn't know
00:36:55he had to have a blood test before a transfusion you seem to know an awful lot about medicine now.
00:36:59I have done some reading. The last three days? Yes. Perhaps you could give me a bit of information
00:37:07that I was unable to discover in my research. What's that? In the uranium method of cancer
00:37:14examination it is true that the uranium flies to the cancerous area but the books neglected to
00:37:20give me an explanation. That's true nobody knows the reason. Then one assumption may be that since
00:37:28cancer attracts radioactivity that the cancerous tissue itself may be charged with a negative
00:37:34energy. Possibly that might lead to a cure. What do you think? I'm sure I don't think anything Mr.
00:37:40Johnson. Now you just you just lie still until the transfusion is finished. Yes very well.
00:38:11I have brought the specimen. He shall follow me back through the beam. With his transmission phase
00:38:28three is completed. Phase three is completed. Phase one near completion. Soon you must complete
00:38:35phase four. There's destruction within the council of the northern orbit. Destruction? Rule is
00:38:42dissolving. Independent action increases on a 73 degree tangent. The result of phase four shall be
00:38:50known to me in three of the earth solar days. I shall return to D'Banna and tell him so.
00:38:56It must be no more than three days.
00:39:26Oh wait a minute. Let's see what the patient put away this morning.
00:39:36Nothing? He never eats. I think he keeps a window open and lives on a smog.
00:39:40Well maybe maybe not. What was in this? Water. Plaque water? Not when I took it into him. Maybe
00:39:46he took a bath in it. Oh it's got a chemical smell. It's vile. This guy is six kinds of a freak.
00:39:54Maybe you're right Jeremy. Yeah baby sure I'm right.
00:39:59Look Jeremy is there anything else you've noticed about him that's different? I noticed a couple of
00:40:05things in the last two days that look worse than different. Night before last he had me bring those
00:40:10stumble bums out here to dinner remember? Yeah I saw them when I left on my date with Eric.
00:40:15You went out but they stayed in. What do you mean? After dinner he sends me out to work on the car.
00:40:21Later I come back and he says the bums are gone but they ain't because I was outside all the time
00:40:26and I would have heard him. You mean to tell me that you think that there's still someplace in
00:40:30this house? I don't think nothing but what happened last night was a real dilly. What happened? The
00:40:35boss second stories it in about two o'clock in the morning and he has a Chinaman with him.
00:40:40Yeah and three pink elephants. Uh-uh baby I can see in the dark. He takes the Chinaman into his
00:40:45room and neither one of them comes out. I saw the boss in there this morning he acted like nothing
00:40:49happened. Or maybe nothing did. I figure it's my business to think the same thing.
00:40:56Sometimes I get the creeps. Yeah so do I. Glad to have company. You want to snoop around some?
00:41:05Maybe he's making atom bombs down there in the basement. No I think we're jumping in shadows.
00:41:10Mr. Johnson's a very considerate employer. I will tell you one thing as his nurse I think I
00:41:14ought to take this down to the lab and find out what it is Mr. Johnson's putting inside of himself.
00:41:18Instead of? Instead of food.
00:41:25Where are we going today boss? You will leave me at the bookstore in Townley Hills District.
00:41:30You will then proceed to the service station. Later I will meet you at the parking lot nearby.
00:41:37Why the station? I would like the vehicle scrutinized for any possible mechanical damage
00:41:42I might have done. Okay. I see Miss Storey's vehicle is gone. Uh she went into town to catch a
00:41:52show. I believe she was looking for this. Yeah yeah she lost it. In the cellar Jeremy. You will return.
00:42:03Do you have any idea what it is? No none at all. Where'd you get it? That doctor's a secret I'll let
00:42:15you in on later. Let's just say it's a food supplement a friend of mine developed. A food
00:42:20supplement? Oh it's something for an internist to analyze not for me. Yeah I know but I think
00:42:24you might find it interesting. It's for you Nadine. He says he's the FBI. All right I'll be right there.
00:42:34I had this blood sample tested. You had the dog pound send over? And? It's rabies all right. A
00:42:39virulent case. Yes we'll label it carefully please and put it back in the chest. I'll have a use for
00:42:44it later. Hello? Secret agent Do-Re-Mi. Did you track down those stolen police arch supports?
00:42:52Arch supports? I read a motorcycle. Yeah well that's another kind of support. At least you can't call me a
00:42:57flatfoot. What's happening tonight? Well there's supposed to be an eclipse of the moon in Johannesburg
00:43:03South Africa. What say we eclipse a steak? I'm on night duty. Go on at nine. All right. Okay doc. Pick you up at six.
00:43:10Bye. Bye. I was going to ask you to come back here at eight tonight. I should have those tests run by
00:43:18then. Oh I did want to see the results of those tests. I'll tell you what Harry will probably
00:43:23take me to the El Dorado. Do you know the place? Very well. Well then I'll make sure he takes me there.
00:43:27And when you get the final results of the supplement come on over and have a bite with us.
00:43:30I'll do that. Okay I'll see you later.
00:44:00Why are you here? I escaped. I came through the beam in your dwelling.
00:44:23Penalty for using the dimension warp is immediate dispatch. I had to do it. I had to escape the mob.
00:44:30What has happened? The wars are finished. The blood supply vanishes. The enemy captives
00:44:37have been taken from pasture. Killed and their blood removed on the spot.
00:44:44I had to escape or perish. You were justified. You shall not be punished for using the dimension warp
00:44:52and you may help me to expedite my work here. I shall help you. You are the recorder. I sent a
00:44:59live specimen through the beam with the courier. Was the subhuman satisfactory? The courier is dead.
00:45:05Murdered for his blood. The specimen of earth humanoid arrived in the divana beam
00:45:10in a compressed state. He was crushed to the size of this communication. Crushed? The department
00:45:18concluded reservedly that it is impossible to transmit a human or subhuman anatomy through
00:45:24the beam from the earth end. The courier lived because he never left the beam. If the conclusion
00:45:31is correct, you and I will be unable to return to divana. However, I shall send another specimen
00:45:36this night. If it is correct, we must remain upon this world until we expire. I would prefer the
00:45:42outer planets of this system to the present agony of divana. That is an emotional statement. It is
00:45:50an emotional time. And if I do not receive blood within four chronoctones of time, I will have no
00:45:55continuing need for emotion. You shall have blood.
00:46:00Nadine. Nadine, you've got to tell me where you got that stuff. Oh, hello Harry. Hello doc. Where? From a friend? Your friend must be an amazing person.
00:46:30Well, the compound's fantastic. Not only does it contain every vitamin known to man, but a few I've
00:46:41never even seen before. And it has the basic food structures concentrated with bulk, roughage, energy
00:46:46and diet control, all in the same molecular structure. Do you mean that he's combined all
00:46:51of this into one primary unit? Yes. Who's he? Mr. Johnson.
00:47:00Oh, well, let's see what they have here for a hungry man. Do you think it's possible to
00:47:06reproduce Johnson's unit? I think we've discussed this sufficiently. Now, I guess I'll try the
00:47:12breaded veal cutlets. This place looks like an exhibit from a Mughal age museum. This world is
00:47:22as ours was of that time. Your observation is correct. Lie there on that plane. I shall bring the blood.
00:47:42Uh,
00:48:07that looks wonderful. We use our own private dressing recipe, sir.
00:48:10Doctor, don't you even want to discuss this supplement thing?
00:48:14No, my dear, I do not.
00:48:16Well, I don't understand.
00:48:17Nadine, I've put in a long day.
00:48:20Now, I've described the compound to you.
00:48:22That's all there is to it.
00:48:23I'd like to eat my dinner and get back to the clinic.
00:48:25I'm with the doctor.
00:48:27All right.
00:48:28Let's get on with the salad.
00:48:31It is finished.
00:48:32Do you feel relieved?
00:48:34I feel disturbed.
00:48:37The blood of this planet is rich.
00:48:39Soon you will find strength.
00:48:42Rise.
00:48:43We must leave this place.
00:48:45There is activity within me.
00:48:47It will pass.
00:48:50We proceed to your dwelling?
00:48:51No.
00:48:52We are too similar.
00:48:54There is a hotel 50 deck beds in that direction.
00:48:56I will be alone among the subhumans.
00:48:58I do not know how to behave.
00:49:00A clerk will speak to you vocally.
00:49:02You must remain in a state of lingua receptivity
00:49:06and imitate his sounds and meanings.
00:49:08You will remain in contact?
00:49:10I will come to you at the hotel on the noon of the Earth Star.
00:49:38Sabrina!
00:49:42Get Dr. Jackson.
00:49:48She is still alive.
00:49:53Take her to my office.
00:49:59I'll take a look at this.
00:50:01She is slipping, Doctor.
00:50:02Massage her arms.
00:50:05She is still alive.
00:50:07Look at her glasses.
00:50:08Yes, I know.
00:50:10I'll take those glasses off.
00:50:15She is gone.
00:50:21Get an ophthalmologist
00:50:23and call the coroner's office.
00:50:27There are a lot of cars parked here tonight.
00:50:31One dollar.
00:50:37You will come with me.
00:50:41You will come with me.
00:50:47You will come with me.
00:50:50I must have a second live specimen.
00:51:01You will drive the automobile as I direct.
00:51:06You will drive the automobile as I direct.
00:51:16Hello?
00:51:17Honey, I've been trying to reach you for ten minutes.
00:51:19I just got in a second. What's up?
00:51:20I'm at Dr. Rochelle's.
00:51:22A woman died in the hospital tonight.
00:51:24Yes?
00:51:25Is Johnson there?
00:51:27I don't know.
00:51:28Look, Nadine, I want you to get out of the house right now.
00:51:30Harry, what are you talking about?
00:51:32The woman who died.
00:51:33She had no eyes.
00:51:34At least not like ours.
00:51:35I don't follow you.
00:51:36She wore the same kind of glasses Johnson wears.
00:51:39Nadine, I don't think he's a human being.
00:51:41Harry, have you been drinking?
00:51:43Look, if I didn't have to go on duty in a half hour,
00:51:45I'd come out there and get you myself.
00:51:46Just take my word for it.
00:51:48Johnson's dangerous and get out of there.
00:51:49Look, maybe you have got something.
00:51:51I'll tell you what.
00:51:52You stay there until just before you have to go on duty.
00:51:54I'll see what I can find out on my own
00:51:55and then I'll call you back.
00:51:56Are you nuts?
00:51:57Beat it out of that place.
00:51:58Goodbye, darling.
00:52:04It is impossible for you to escape.
00:52:07Come to me.
00:52:09I hear you.
00:52:10You can't hurt me now.
00:52:11It doesn't work now.
00:52:13It's a lie.
00:52:14I am not so injured.
00:52:35Harry says he's not a human being.
00:52:37I don't think he's for real, neither.
00:52:39Where is he?
00:52:40He put me in a taxi and took off in the car
00:52:41with some queer-looking dame.
00:52:43Well, this gives us a chance to search the house.
00:52:45Come on, let's try the living room.
00:52:46We'd better make it snappy.
00:52:50Find anything?
00:52:51Not yet.
00:52:52How about you?
00:52:54What's this?
00:53:00What's this?
00:53:06You ever see anything like it?
00:53:07Good, maybe we hit something.
00:53:11Look.
00:53:19Well, now we've really got something.
00:53:21I don't think we ought to fool with it.
00:53:22It might blow up.
00:53:23What's that?
00:53:25There's something here you can't get your hands through.
00:53:27What is this thing?
00:53:29I don't think I want to know.
00:53:30Whatever it is, no one on this world ever made it.
00:53:32You mean the boss is some kind of man from Mars?
00:53:34I don't care what he is,
00:53:35but I think we ought to smash this thing.
00:53:38You couldn't bust through that with a 20-pound sledge.
00:53:42There's nothing we can do about this.
00:53:44I'll stay here, you go down to the cellar
00:53:45and see what you can find.
00:53:46Okay.
00:53:57Hello?
00:54:23Nadine?
00:54:24Yes, Doctor.
00:54:26Harry told you about the woman who died here tonight.
00:54:28He said she was like Johnson.
00:54:30This has nothing to do with our patient.
00:54:32The woman seems to lack any visible aperture
00:54:35on her optical tissue.
00:54:36She has a fantastic blood disease
00:54:38in which the agglutinant is disintegrating.
00:54:40Disintegrating?
00:54:42Is that what killed her?
00:54:43No, she died of rabies.
00:54:45What?
00:54:46I've been experimenting with the blood from a rabid dog.
00:54:49Someone injected that same blood into her tonight
00:54:51at least an hour ago.
00:54:52The impossible part is that she lived through the transfusion.
00:54:55Who would do such a horrible thing?
00:54:57Someone who knew that she needed blood desperately
00:54:59and didn't know what kind of stuff he was pumping into her.
00:55:01I say it was Johnson.
00:55:03Doctor, do you think Mr. Johnson
00:55:04is suffering from the same disease as this woman?
00:55:06I will not discuss Mr. Johnson.
00:55:08Why?
00:55:10About this woman.
00:55:11I think I know the cause and treatment of her disease.
00:55:14You do?
00:55:15Yes.
00:55:16Apparently, the victim has lived in an area
00:55:18that's been constantly charged with radioactive material.
00:55:21It was this atmosphere that affected the blood.
00:55:24Where would such an atmosphere be found?
00:55:26In a place where continuous nuclear detonations
00:55:29have taken place over a period of years.
00:55:31An area of all-out nuclear warfare.
00:55:34But there is no such place.
00:55:35Yes, I know, my dear.
00:55:37There's no doubt in my mind that this woman
00:55:39is something other than human.
00:55:41She's an alien.
00:55:43I see.
00:55:45What would be your treatment?
00:55:47First, removal from the toxic atmosphere
00:55:49and then a complete change of blood.
00:55:51Would this cure Mr. Johnson?
00:55:52I'm not speaking of Johnson.
00:55:54Does he fit your description?
00:55:55Nadine, please.
00:55:56Dr. Rochelle, does this man have some kind of a power over you?
00:55:59Has he threatened your life or something?
00:56:01Nadine, I really must hang up.
00:56:03I have a great deal of work to do.
00:56:05Look, Dr. Rochelle, I...
00:56:06The doctor is no longer in contact, Miss Stewart.
00:56:10Mr. Johnson.
00:56:12Remain in your room.
00:56:22Then I'm going to get Lee myself!
00:56:39Do not run from me, Nadine.
00:56:41I'm going to dispatch you.
00:56:47I hear your voice, Mr. Johnson,
00:56:48but I'm not going to open my eyes!
00:56:52No!
00:57:23There is no place for you to hide.
00:57:27You may conceal your person,
00:57:29but I can find your mind.
00:57:32And I shall destroy your doctor.
00:58:19Nadine, I am coming.
00:58:21I am not going to kill you you and your doctor have cured me
00:58:26You have saved the people of Devon
00:58:29because of you we shall live I
00:58:33Am coming
00:58:39Stillness
00:58:42The makeup of this blood is amazing. I think the coroner will agree. I
00:58:47Can't wait any longer doctor. I've got to go on duty right away
00:58:50Well, I guess I can continue my examination alone
00:58:53If the Dean called tell her I've gone to work. Oh
00:58:57Why don't you try to get her again
00:59:00Once more
00:59:06To think of her under the same roof with that monster, mr. Johnson is no monster. I
00:59:13I
00:59:16Can't wait. Good night doctor. Good night, Eric
