01:48 Foster and the girl may be here any moment. Get down to the cabin at once.
01:51 Yes, sir.

03:06 Uncle Cyrus!
03:08 [Music]
03:13 Dr. Layton.
03:15 [Music]
03:18 I was just trying to phone you.
03:20 [Music]
03:22 How on earth did you get here?
03:24 The strangest thing happened.
03:27 I fell asleep in my study and...
03:29 the next thing I knew I was in the back of a moving car.
03:33 And Garrett and the purple monster were in the front seat.
03:36 Yes.
03:37 And then what happened?
03:39 The car slowed down a curve.
03:42 I opened the door, jumped out, fell in some bushes.
03:48 I made my way back here in sort of a daze.
03:51 That's all I remember.
03:53 Don't try to talk now. We'll discuss the whole thing after you've had a good rest.
03:56 Get him a glass of water, Sheila.
03:58 [Music]
04:02 Foster and Sheila swallowed my story hook, line, and sinker.
04:06 Then you have nothing to worry about.
04:08 No, not as far as they're concerned.
04:10 But I'm behind schedule at the jet plane.
04:12 I'll have to explain my reasons to the Emperor.
04:15 [Music]
04:29 The Earth Expedition calls the Emperor.
04:34 The Emperor of Mars bids you speak.
04:37 Is the jet plane almost finished?
04:39 We're making good progress, Your Highness.
04:41 But I have encountered many serious obstacles.
04:45 Obstacles?
04:46 What obstacles could possibly stop you?
04:49 Second highest on Mars.
04:52 Allow me to give Your Majesty a complete report.
04:55 After landing on Earth, I contrived to be alone with Dr. Layton in his observatory,
04:59 where he showed me the plans of his jet plane.
05:05 Very ingenious, Doctor.
05:08 I'm highly flattered, sir.
05:10 This is really the greatest day of my life.
05:13 Unfortunately for you, Doctor, it is also the last day of your life.
05:18 [Music]
05:25 I beg your pardon.
05:27 I'm afraid I don't quite understand.
05:29 My people have planned for a long time to invade the Earth and enslave its inhabitants,
05:34 destroying all those who resist us.
05:37 I am a forerunner of that invasion, the advance guard.
05:41 You must be insane.
05:43 You must have injured your head when you landed.
05:45 You better let me get you a drink.
05:46 Stay where you are.
05:47 I'm not mad.
05:49 The invasion has only been delayed because of our inability to build ships
05:52 that could land safely and return to Mars.
05:55 Your plans have supplied that need.
06:00 You see, I have the ability to kill you, enter your body, and use it for my own purposes.
06:06 Now I know you're insane.
06:09 This capsule contains a specimen of the atmosphere surrounding Mars.
06:13 Harmless for me to breathe, of course, but it will be instantly fatal to you.
06:18 [Music]
06:42 Having assumed his body, I was accepted by everybody as Dr. Layton.
06:46 Then I learned of the newly perfected launching rocket.
06:49 I was about to secure this for our jet plane when I was interrupted by Craig Foster
06:53 and forced to fight for my life.
06:55 [Music]
07:24 [Music]
07:47 [Music]
07:54 Foster has been a dangerous and clever opponent.
07:57 On another occasion, he prevented Garrett from getting away with a valuable load of rocket fuel.
08:02 [Music]
08:08 We cannot run him. We're losing that oil.
08:10 When you get to the top of the grade, stop.
08:12 [Music]
08:27 [Music]
08:39 [Music]
08:43 Jump!
08:44 [Music]
09:01 Your Highness can plainly see that even I have been seriously hindered by such difficulties.
09:06 I can also see that this Foster person is endangering our plans.
09:11 You must take steps to remove him at once.
09:14 Your command is my law.
09:16 [Music]
09:22 Eliminating Foster won't be an easy matter.
09:25 It will have to be done quietly and away from the observatory so that I'll never be suspected.
09:30 I know how that can be done.
09:32 I have a secret apartment in town. I find it very handy to get rid of people who don't play ball with me.
09:38 It's very easy. I simply take care of them by telephone.
09:41 By telephone?
09:43 Yeah. And if you can find a way to get Foster that apartment,
09:46 after he answers that phone there, he'll never be heard from again.
09:50 [Music]
09:56 Well, hello, Doctor.
09:57 I had to see you, Craig.
09:59 You promised us that you'd go to bed and rest.
10:02 Have a seat.
10:05 Now, what's on your mind that's so important?
10:08 I just remembered something I heard the Purple Monster tell Garrett when I was a prisoner in their car.
10:13 Yes?
10:14 They were planning to separate.
10:16 And Garrett was to go to 362 Bond Street and wait in the first floor apartment for further orders.
10:23 Then that may be their headquarters.
10:25 Now, don't do anything rash, Craig.
10:27 I'll be careful, but I am going to pay a visit to that Bond Street address.
