01:33Crown investigating service, Jerry Crown speaking.
01:37Oh, hello Joyce.
01:38I've only got a minute. I'm calling from Mrs. Gillings' place.
01:41What's the matter? Doesn't the old lady allow her secretary to make a private call?
01:45Mrs. Gillings is not an old lady and I'm making the call for her.
01:48She wants to see you this afternoon at two.
01:51Are you putting me on?
01:53I'm putting you on to a good thing.
01:55She doesn't know you can't even pay your rent.
01:57I told her you were a big private investigator.
01:59This could be your big chance, darling.
02:01She'll pay well for your services.
02:03What services? What does she want me to do?
02:05Well, it's about her husband.
02:07Joyce, just a moment Mrs. Gillings.
02:09I can't talk now.
02:11See you at two.
02:12Darling, remember you're a big investigator.
02:15Get your suit pressed.
02:19**Phone Ringing**
02:26Your prompt.
02:27And pressed.
02:28Careful darling, she's in there.
02:31Okay, fill me in quick.
02:33What's all this about her husband?
02:35Joyce, did you answer the door?
02:37Mr. Crown is here.
02:38Show him in.
02:39She'll tell you herself.
02:43Mrs. Gillings, this is Mr. Crown.
02:45It's good of you to come.
02:46It's my pleasure.
02:47Well, if you don't need me, I'll finish those letters.
02:49Of course.
02:50Sit down Mr. Crown.
02:53You know, I'm not very good at this sort of thing.
02:57Do you smoke?
02:59Do you smoke?
03:00Thank you.
03:01I've never talked to a private investigator before.
03:04I understand.
03:06But all you have to remember is that anything you say to me is strictly confidential.
03:10Did Joyce tell you about my problem?
03:13Just in general.
03:14I know it involves your husband.
03:16I gather you're trying to find him.
03:18Yes.
03:19In a way.
03:21Well, suppose we start with a few details.
03:23Just how long has your husband been away?
03:26Howard has been gone for a year now.
03:29A year, I see.
03:31What was the exact date he left you?
03:33Please, Mr. Crown, it's not necessary to take notes.
03:36Yes, but in a case like this with a missing husband...
03:39He's not missing.
03:42My husband is dead.
03:53I see, Mrs. Gillings.
03:56What you require is a psychic investigation.
03:59Yes.
04:00Joyce told me you were experienced in the field.
04:04Does that mean you believe in spiritualism?
04:08I've worked for several years with the Parapsychological Institute.
04:12Now, let's just say I have an open mind on the subject.
04:15And you?
04:16Howard was the one who believed.
04:18He told me...
04:20when he knew he was dying...
04:23that if there was a way...
04:25he'd manage to communicate with me.
04:28Did he ask you to help him find a way?
04:30Yes.
04:32If he failed...
04:34I was to try and reach him.
04:37I gave my promise, Mr. Crown.
04:41Not every promise can be kept.
04:43I know.
04:44But it's been a year now, and I can't forget.
04:48I owe it to his memory to try.
04:51But you don't believe in it.
04:53Not really.
04:57I believe in this.
05:01When we were married...
05:03Howard had this ring engraved for me.
05:05You can see the inscription.
05:07Forever.
05:10We were married for 15 years.
05:14I still can't believe it's over.
05:17I suppose it all sounds sentimental to you.
05:20But Howard was a sentimental man.
05:25And a handsome one.
05:27It's a good likeness.
05:30Mrs. Gillings...
05:32are you quite sure you want to do this?
05:35In that case, you'll have to decide whether or not you want my help.
05:40Can you help me, Mr. Crown?
05:42I don't know. I can try.
05:45At least I can protect you.
05:46You must realize that not all mediums are honest.
05:49Some are fakes.
05:50I've run into a few from time to time.
05:53I understand.
05:55When would you be free to start?
05:58When will you need me?
06:00Tomorrow evening.
06:01There's a medium in Clapham who has weekly sittings.
06:04I've heard she's quite good.
06:06Excuse me. The letters are ready for you to sign.
06:08Oh, thank you.
06:09Suppose you pick me up here tomorrow night at 7.
06:12Right.
06:13Good afternoon.
06:16I'll let myself out.
06:36Good evening. We have an appointment with Mrs. Hubbard.
06:39They've all got appointments.
06:42I'd rather sit.
06:49I suppose you might as well sit down.
06:52This isn't quite what I expected.
06:55It's all so ordinary.
06:57It doesn't look as if Mrs. Hubbard was trying to impress us.
07:01I don't think so.
07:03I don't think so.
07:05I don't think so.
07:07I don't think so.
07:09I don't think Mrs. Hubbard was trying to impress us.
07:12Well, not with her taste in literature, anyway.
07:30Do sit down, Mrs. Gillings.
07:32Good evening.
07:34Brought a gentleman friend, I see.
07:36Yes, this is Mr. Crown.
07:38Right. If you'll take a seat next to the lady.
07:49There now. If you're comfy, we can get on with it.
07:52And since you're all of you strangers here, perhaps I'd best explain.
07:56Oh, thank you.
07:58First off, this table.
08:00It's not going to tip.
08:02There'll be nothing of that sort.
08:04Lights out, hidden music on the gramophone.
08:06I deal with hanky-panky. I don't hold with it.
08:08But you are a medium.
08:10Psychic sensitive.
08:13I get impressions from people about their past and future.
08:17How do you explain your gift?
08:19I can't.
08:21But perhaps I can show you.
08:23Now, if you'll each take...
08:25pencil, sheet of paper and an envelope.
08:29Now...
08:33Take a good look.
08:35Plain envelopes. No trick pencils.
08:38Regular paper.
08:42Satisfied?
08:47Now, if you'll each of you write down a question.
08:50Fold up your paper and seal it tight in the envelope.
08:56I shall take the envelopes and read your questions back to you.
09:00Before I open them, of course.
09:03I mean to answer each question according to the impressions that come through.
09:08So please write what is closest to your mind and heart.
09:17That's it. Right under the table. Any old way you like.
09:21It's the feeling I need, not the words.
09:25Now, if you'll pass your envelopes to me.
09:46Mind you, now, these envelopes haven't left your sight.
09:49There's been no switch.
09:51Now, these envelopes haven't left your sight.
09:53There's been no switching. No hocus-pocus.
09:56Right? It's important that all of you be silent now.
10:00I've need of concentration.
10:22Yes, there's something here.
10:25Nervous handwriting it is. Someone's worried.
10:29Hmm. It's coming through now.
10:33Question is...
10:35Shall I sell my property or hold out for the original figure?
10:40That's it. That's my question, all right.
10:43Best make sure.
10:52Yes.
10:54My impression, Mr Rogers, is hold out for the original figure.
11:02It's coming through quickly now. Yes, I feel it.
11:06Will Edward propose?
11:11Hmm.
11:13No, my dear, I'm sorry. He's not yet ready to declare himself.
11:17That's all I feel here.
11:22Strange one, this is.
11:24Very strange.
11:26I'm not quite sure I get it just right.
11:30Is it possible for me to contact my husband?
11:35That is my question.
11:47That's my question, I believe.
11:49Helena, what are you up to? Exposing a fraud.
11:52But I don't understand. She knew my question.
11:55Of course. She'd already opened it and read it.
12:02It's here, in the basket.
12:05But that was your question.
12:08No. It appears hers.
12:11I thought Mr Rogers was the first question.
12:15Well, that's what we were supposed to think.
12:17But Mr Rogers is an accomplice.
12:21He marked his envelope with a fingernail
12:24so that Mrs Hubbard could recognise it and save it till last.
12:27Now, you pretended to call out Rogers' question first,
12:30but you were really holding somebody else's envelope to your forehead.
12:34So when you opened it, you actually read a genuine question,
12:37which you answered while holding the next envelope you took.
12:41Well, nobody suspected because all the sheets of paper look alike.
12:46It's the old one-ahead system.
12:48And it nearly worked, didn't it?
12:50Why, you dirty miserable... Sit down.
12:52Call that a way to treat a lady?
12:54No, I don't.
12:56But your language isn't exactly ladylike.
12:59And I don't think you're a lady at all.
13:15I'm sorry.
13:33I still can't forget the look on that man's face when you lifted off his wig.
13:37Well, I'm sorry about it,
13:39because we went there for a serious purpose and you were disappointed.
13:43Not entirely.
13:46I must confess,
13:48when I first met you, I had some doubts.
13:52That's understandable.
13:54Now I realise how much I need your help.
13:57I'd never have caught on to the trick myself.
14:00Well, it's just a matter of experience.
14:03You'll probably come across all sorts of frauds.
14:06Phony spirit writings on slates,
14:09ectoplasm that turns out to be cheesecloth.
14:12All kinds of tricks.
14:14But surely all mediums aren't dishonest.
14:17I didn't say that.
14:22I'm glad you didn't.
14:24Howard was nobody's fool.
14:27He studied psychic phenomena for years.
14:30He wouldn't have wasted his time without a good reason.
14:37Tonight didn't discourage me.
14:40I'd like to try again,
14:42if you're still willing to help me.
14:45In any way I can.
14:53You should have heard the old girl when she got home last night.
14:56She kept me up for an hour, chattering on about you and how marvellous you are.
15:00It must have been an interesting conversation.
15:02Pretty sure of yourself, aren't you?
15:04Well, I'm sure of 20 pounds a day.
15:0620? Well, that is a piece of cake.
15:09I don't mind expenses.
15:11However, did you get her to agree to it?
15:13Some people appreciate real ability when they see it.
15:16I've just done some figuring.
15:18Two weeks of this and I'll have the back rent paid up.
15:21From then on it's all profit.
15:23You talk as if there's no end to the business.
15:25Why should there be?
15:27All I need is to keep steering Mrs Gillings to more mediums
15:30and let the money roll in.
15:32Got it made, haven't you?
15:34Absolutely. I told you I was clever.
15:36So you did.
15:38Some of these mediums are clever too.
15:40What happens if you come up against one you can't expose?
15:43Yes, well, I'll cross that bridge when I come to it.
15:46The important thing at the moment is that I'm sure of your cooperation.
16:00I rather enjoy cooperating with you.
16:03Good.
16:05Good evening, sir.
16:09Hello.
16:11Thank you for coming. This man just phoned and I didn't want to see him without you.
16:15Thank you, Gertrude.
16:17What did you say his name was?
16:19Charter. He told me he's just arrived from Bombay.
16:22Well, that didn't mean anything to me, of course.
16:25But when he said he had a message from my husband...
16:28An Oriental mystic.
16:30You know, I should warn you that sometimes these people work together.
16:34Suppose Hubbard passed your name along
16:37and told this man that you were anxious to reach your husband.
16:40I thought of that.
16:42But Hubbard had no way of knowing what Howard looked like.
16:46I don't follow you.
16:48Charter described Howard perfectly.
16:51Said he appeared to him just as he was in life.
16:55Unless you can't take his word for that.
16:57I don't intend to.
16:59If there's anything in it, we'll know tonight.
17:07FASCINATING MUSIC
17:28Fascinating.
17:30It's pretty much what I expected.
17:34Enter.
17:38Welcome to the house of Charter.
17:49May I ask what you have there?
17:55A crystal ball.
17:57Does that mean that you can foresee the future?
18:03This is just glass and wood.
18:09Beyond outward form there is nothing but atoms.
18:13The tiny cosmic seeds of life.
18:18Eternal.
18:20Unending.
18:23You of the Western world have only recently become aware of these truths.
18:28But we of the East have known of them through the ages.
18:38Mrs. Gillings, if you will sit down.
18:42Perhaps I can tell you of other truths.
18:46Perhaps I can tell you of other truths.
18:58I have told you that all form and substance is composed of atoms.
19:06And atoms are eternal.
19:10The atoms of this crystal?
19:14The atoms of your brain?
19:18The atoms which once formed the being you knew as Howard Gillings?
19:29Once you accept this truth, you will understand that there can be no death.
19:38Merely a separation.
19:43And what has been separated can be joined again.
19:51I ask you now to concentrate on the crystal.
19:58We will make of it a bridge joining our world with the next.
20:08A gate through which you can reach the one you love.
20:15Take my hands.
20:18Hold them tightly.
20:22Join me now in concentration.
20:28The bridge will be crossed.
20:32The gate will be opened.
20:38O great powers of the universe!
20:41Ye of mighty force whom men call gods!
20:46Hear me now.
20:48I summon you.
20:50In the name of Brahma, the creator.
20:54Vishnu, the preserver.
20:57Siva, the destroyer.
21:01Ye who created.
21:03Ye who preserved.
21:05Ye who destroyed.
21:09Unite now to bring forth the entity known as Howard Gillings.
21:30Leona.
21:33Leona.
21:46Leona, can you hear me?
21:50Howard.
22:02Yes, my darling.
22:04I am here.
22:07All is peace.
22:11I love you.
22:14I love you.
22:17I love you.
22:27Now this is a reaching rod.
22:29It's one of the oldest gimmicks in the business.
22:31And this trumpet is coated with phosphorescent paint.
22:34Our friend concealed it under the table, brought it out, opened it up,
22:39and you thought you saw a trumpet floating in midair.
22:43Oh, he never held his hand after the lights went out.
22:46He held this stuffed glove he placed in his sleeve.
22:49That left him free to use the rod.
22:51You think you're very clever.
22:53And the voice came from this tape recorder under the table.
22:58Charter operated the control with his knee, but I found it and slowed it down.
23:03Another knee control works the lights and music, including the light in this.
23:12Howard's picture.
23:14It's a transparency.
23:16But where did you get this, Charter?
23:18Oh, let him go.
23:21You know, I'm terribly grateful for all you've done, Jerry.
23:29Thank you.
23:35Went well, did it?
23:37With your help, darling.
23:39Getting hold of that photographed copy and all the rest.
23:42How about a bit of credit for me while you're at it?
23:44Oh, you were great, Ted. Just great.
23:46You should have seen him and that accent of his.
23:48This has been a part of my act for very many years.
23:51We fooled the old girl all right, didn't we, champ?
23:53Well, if it's credit you want, you're entitled to it.
23:56I could do with the cash, too.
23:59Jerry, remember?
24:01100 pounds for the turn.
24:03Ted, you're worth more than that for what you did.
24:05Say 200?
24:06Oh, that's my chum.
24:08Let's have it.
24:10No, not just yet.
24:11What's the dodge?
24:12You get your money, maybe more.
24:14If you just wait a bit.
24:16Very soon now, I shall lay my hands on a real bundle.
24:19How soon?
24:21The moment I marry Leona Gillings.
24:27Of course I don't love her.
24:29You've got me all wrong.
24:31Have I?
24:33Look, weren't you the one who said I couldn't go on exposing fake mediums forever?
24:37Well, you're right. I can't.
24:39And why waste time fiddling around for peanuts
24:41when there's a fortune just ready to be taken?
24:43Yes, but you're taking her along with it.
24:46Well, why not?
24:48She's ripe for it.
24:50She's lonely.
24:52She doesn't want to be alone.
24:54I love it.
24:56She's lonely, vulnerable, insecure.
24:58It's a perfect set-up.
25:00Yes, for you.
25:02For us.
25:04Now, don't you see?
25:05I'll be out of this crummy office.
25:07You can forget about working.
25:09With that kind of money, I can set you up in style.
25:13From now on, we've got it made.
25:17Do you really think so?
25:25Watch me.
25:45Good evening.
25:49You look lovely.
25:51You like it?
25:54Yes, very much.
25:56I wasn't certain.
25:58It's been so long since I've worn anything but black.
26:01I'll fix you your pink jean.
26:08What's the occasion?
26:09I wondered if you were free for dinner tonight.
26:13Have you found another medium to tell me about?
26:16No.
26:18I have tickets for the theatre.
26:22I thought perhaps we might have dinner here first.
26:26I'd like to, but I'm afraid I can't.
26:29Oh.
26:31You have other plans?
26:33No, I've nothing planned.
26:36And if things were different, there's nothing I'd like more.
26:40Leonore, I don't think I should go on seeing you.
26:42But why?
26:44Is there some reason?
26:47Well, I think you know the reason.
26:49I'm becoming too fond of you.
26:53So I've really no choice.
26:55Jerry.
26:59Please don't go.
27:05Are you sure you did the right thing walking out on her like that?
27:08I know what I'm doing.
27:11But it's been over a week now. Nothing's happened.
27:13It will.
27:14Suppose she doesn't ring.
27:20PHONE RINGS
27:25Crown Investigating Service.
27:29Hello, Leonore.
27:32Now, of course I'm not too busy.
27:35I'm glad you phoned.
27:38I've missed you terribly.
27:40I was wrong the other evening.
27:44Oh, that's a wonderful idea. What time?
27:48I'll be there.
27:50Goodbye.
27:54Well?
27:56She's invited me to the ballet this evening.
27:59You're going to take her?
28:01Yes, of course I'm going to take her.
28:06You happy?
28:09Then tell me something.
28:11Anything.
28:14Did you really think we were going to the ballet tonight?
28:17Yeah.
28:19My Jerry.
28:20Sending Joyce away for the evening.
28:22Waiting for me here alone.
28:25You're a designing woman.
28:37Leonore, you're quite sure this is what you want?
28:40Quite sure.
28:43I'm going to sell this place.
28:46I can't live here any longer.
28:49This all belongs to the past.
28:52I was thinking of going to the States.
28:55Just when we find each other?
28:58You didn't think I'd go without you?
29:00As far as I'm concerned, we can leave immediately.
29:03Nothing to stop us.
29:05Hello, love.
29:06Where's Jerry?
29:07Moved out this morning. I'm renting the space.
29:10He can't get away with it.
29:12Why not?
29:13I need a place to practice my new routine, so he lets me take over.
29:17No harm in that, is there?
29:19There's plenty of harm.
29:21Might stand here for a moment?
29:30I'm sorry.
29:33Tell me where he is.
29:36Jerry? Packing, I should think.
29:38I hear he's off on a little trip.
29:40He won't need to pack for where I'm sending him.
29:42Easy now, easy.
29:46I'm not joking.
29:47If he tries to run, I'll tell Mrs. Gillings the truth.
29:50Everything.
29:51Oh, that means jail.
29:53You bet it does.
29:54Not for Jerry.
29:57For you.
29:58You see, Jerry had nothing to do with that seance.
30:01You were the one that set the whole thing up.
30:03Rented the house and the props.
30:05What are you talking about?
30:07You remember that photograph I used?
30:09Yes.
30:10You pinched it.
30:11You had it copied for me.
30:12The photo lab would testify to that in court.
30:14Jerry told me to.
30:16All Jerry did was expose me.
30:18And if I cooperate with the police and testify the whole scheme was yours,
30:22I'm sure to get off with a suspended sentence.
30:26We're in the clear, love.
30:31And you've had it.
30:32He framed me, did he?
30:34Well, I'm going to talk anyway, whatever happens.
30:39Yes, of course.
30:41What's a pretty bird like you got to be frightened about?
30:45I mean, a girl with your looks can always get along.
30:49Unless something happened to spoil that pretty face.
30:55Could happen.
30:57Some night now.
30:59Couldn't it?
31:02Just like that.
31:19Will you wait in this room, ma'am?
31:21I'll tell Miss Brynne you're here.
31:22Take a seat, please.
31:23Thank you.
31:32How do you do, Mrs. Gillings?
31:34I'm so glad you were able to come.
31:36Now, where shall we sit?
31:38Would you like some sharing?
31:39No, thank you.
31:41This letter...
31:44I hope you didn't mind my asking you to come.
31:48In it you said you and Howard are good friends.
31:52Yes.
31:54Are, Miss Brynne.
31:56Fiona, may I call you that?
31:59May I call you that?
32:01I feel I know you so well.
32:03Please.
32:05You must call me Sarah.
32:08You see, Howard and I, we've known each other for many years.
32:13But Howard...
32:15Howard is dead, you're going to say.
32:18Aren't you?
32:19He is dead.
32:21Of course.
32:22To this world.
32:24But some of us see things differently.
32:26Us?
32:27I'm a medium.
32:30You didn't say so.
32:31Deliberately.
32:33I have heard of your recent and shocking experiences with spiritualism.
32:38And I'm very sorry you've been subjected to such trickery.
32:43I didn't want you to think that this letter was from some charlatan.
32:50How did you meet my husband?
32:52When Howard began his researches into the psychic world, he came to me.
32:57He'd heard of me through an acquaintance.
33:00I'm quite well known in my own circle.
33:04Have you...
33:09Have you been in touch?
33:11With Howard?
33:13Only his nearest have that right.
33:16You have that right.
33:18But only if there is sufficient reason.
33:21And is there sufficient reason?
33:23Only you can answer that.
33:26Is there?
33:30How do we know we shan't be wasting our time?
33:34We?
33:36I have a friend helping me with my search.
33:41I see.
33:44You simply have to trust me.
33:47Have they all said that?
33:49Yes.
33:51They always do.
33:53Are you sure you won't have some sherry?
33:56I'm going to have some.
33:57Well, in that case...
34:02Who is your friend?
34:04His name's Crown.
34:07Jerry Crown.
34:09He was introduced to me by my secretary.
34:12He's been with me in all this.
34:15And must he be with you when you meet Howard again?
34:19Yes.
34:21Why, may I ask?
34:23Of course, if you...
34:24We're in love.
34:27I see.
34:29And this is what you want to face Howard with?
34:32Yes.
34:35Well, I feel he would only want me to be happy.
34:40But...
34:41First, I...
34:43I must convince Jerry about...
34:47With this idea.
34:49Naturally, about me.
34:53You'll only be able to do that...
34:56If you believe in me yourself.
34:58I promised Howard.
35:00And I want to keep my promise.
35:04I feel I should try anything.
35:07I wonder...
35:09Would you come and meet Jerry?
35:11Hello?
35:13What's the matter?
35:14Nothing.
35:15There's someone here.
35:17I think you two should meet.
35:24Sarah?
35:25This is Mr. Crown.
35:27Miss Sarah Prynne.
35:28Hello.
35:29Sarah was a friend of my late husband's.
35:32Late husband is not a phrase I accept, my dear.
35:35Those of us who understand do not believe in death.
35:39Merely in a temporary separation between this world and the next.
35:45Sarah is psychic.
35:48She knew Howard many years ago when he first became interested in spiritualism.
35:54That is why I'm here.
35:57I realize you've had some unfortunate experiences lately.
36:01And I cannot allow you to believe all mediums are frauds.
36:05All mediums are frauds.
36:07There are many, many sincere and dedicated researchers in the field of psychic phenomena.
36:15I'm quite sure of that, Miss Prynne.
36:19I believe it's possible for me to contact Howard.
36:24And I'm prepared to do so.
36:27Leona?
36:29Yes, darling?
36:30Would you be good enough to excuse us for a moment?
36:33Of course.
36:35Thank you.
36:41Leona, what's this all about?
36:43I thought we both agreed to stay away from mediums.
36:45Yes.
36:46You know, you just make yourself miserable.
36:47But this is different.
36:48Miss Prynne was Howard's friend.
36:50Yes, I know that.
36:51But it's our future we must think about now, not the past.
36:54It is our future I'm thinking of.
36:57I want to be sure, utterly sure that Howard's gone forever.
37:02You can understand that.
37:04Darling, it's just that I don't want you to be hurt anymore.
37:07Suppose this woman is another fraud.
37:10In that case, you'll expose her.
37:18We've agreed we'd like to come.
37:20Then, tonight?
37:22Yes.
37:27Oh, by the way, Miss Prynne.
37:29Just how did you learn that Leona was interested in contacting her husband?
37:34I was told yesterday by her secretary.
38:04Yes.
38:30You know, I never miss one of Miss Prynne's seances.
38:33Neither do I, whenever I'm in London.
38:35I do wish she could be persuaded to accept some kind of contribution.
38:38Sherry, sir.
38:40The last time you were here, was the contact successful?
38:43It was difficult to interpret.
38:44The guidance was not very clear.
38:47I wonder what Bright Arrow will tell us tonight.
38:51Bright Arrow?
38:52Miss Prynne tells me her message has come through him.
38:55It's her Indian spirit guide.
38:57I see.
38:58I understand it's quite common for mediums to work through spirit guides.
39:03Haven't you ever wondered why they're all Indians?
39:06It never occurred to me.
39:08I suppose there must be a reason.
39:11When spiritualism first came into vogue, Indians were still romantic figures.
39:16The noble red man tradition.
39:18So mediums adopted them.
39:20The idea was that if an Indian could guide us through the wilderness,
39:24he could also lead the way into the realms of the spirit world.
39:27That seems to make sense in a way.
39:30Darling, we are doing the right thing, aren't we?
39:35I mean, if Miss Prynne can't get through...
39:37She won't.
39:38Well, then don't you see, darling?
39:40We'll know.
39:42I'll know.
39:44I'll have kept my promise to the past and...
39:48and it'll be buried.
39:51Until the next medium comes along.
39:53And then what?
39:55Leona, I lied to you in the beginning when I said I had an open mind about all this.
39:59It's all phony. I know that.
40:02It's either a racket or self-delusion.
40:05The dead are dead.
40:08Darling, you've been very patient with me.
40:12I promise you.
40:14If Miss Prynne fails,
40:17there are no more mediums.
40:20And I really belong to you.
40:24Thank you.
40:35Good evening.
40:37Before we go in,
40:39I should say our sitting tonight will be something in the nature of a test.
40:44Test?
40:46We have newcomers to our circle tonight.
40:49Naturally, they desire to be convinced of our sincerity.
40:51And I'm sure we all wish to cooperate.
40:55Have you any questions before we go in?
40:58Yes, about this Indian you say you worked through.
41:01Brightarrow?
41:03He is not a figment of my imagination, Mr. Crown.
41:06Brightarrow rarely lived.
41:08He was an Apache,
41:10a medicine man,
41:11and a warrior with Geronimo.
41:13He passed over into the spirit world
41:16more than 80 years ago.
41:17I suppose this is something you could read about in a history book.
41:21Or did he give you the information personally?
41:25Brightarrow manifested his presence to me
41:28when I was a girl.
41:30Since then, he has brought many messages from the spirit world.
41:34He is my guardian and my guide
41:37when I enter into a trance state.
41:48Before you go into your trance,
41:50I'd like to set up a few conditions.
41:52Of course.
41:54Do you wish to search the room?
41:56Sound the walls for microphones?
41:59You may seal the doors, if you wish.
42:02Or sprinkle blood on the walls.
42:04And if you wish,
42:06I'd like you to be able to speak.
42:08And if you wish,
42:10I'd like you to be able to speak.
42:12And if you wish,
42:14I'd like you to be able to speak.
42:15Sound the walls, if you wish.
42:17Or sprinkle powder over the floor to show footprints.
42:20If you know about these methods, you wouldn't mention them.
42:23Unless you had other gimmicks.
42:25Such as the long-sleeved robe you're wearing.
42:34Grace.
42:40Are you satisfied, Mr. Crown?
42:42As they say, there's nothing up my sleeve.
42:45Except your arms and your hands.
42:47But I have something for that.
42:49Are you going to handcuff her?
42:52I'm not taking any chances.
42:54We'll all be handcuffed together.
43:03You really don't trust me, do you, Mr. Crown?
43:07Very well.
43:09I agree.
43:15Grace.
43:19You're to handcuff me.
43:21Come along.
43:29Now the others.
43:46Very regular, I must say.
43:59Shall I take the key, sir?
44:01No, put it in my mouth.
44:03I'll take it.
44:05I'll take it.
44:07I'll take it.
44:09I'll take it.
44:11I'll take it.
44:13I'll take it.
44:15Your mouth, sir?
44:17I want to know where it is during the seance.
44:24Now we will begin.
44:26Light the candles.
44:45Light the candles.
45:16Jerry, I'm frightened.
45:19You're afraid of the dark?
45:21Nothing's going to happen, you'll see.
45:23All this nonsense about Indians.
45:45Hmm.
45:48Hmm.
45:52Hmm.
45:56Hmm.
45:58Hmm.
46:02Hmm.
46:04Hmm.
46:06Hmm.
46:15Hmm.
46:17Hmm.
46:19Hmm.
46:21Hmm.
46:22Hmm.
46:42Bright arrow comes.
46:46Hard to find way.
46:48Someone here does not wish to know truth.
46:52Someone evil.
47:07Bright arrow here.
47:16I bring message to one called Leona.
47:21Husband say, your ring.
47:24Remember vow, forever.
47:27Howard.
47:29Yes, Howard.
47:31He warns.
47:34Man you think you love is evil.
47:38He will harm you.
47:40He will kill you.
47:42He will kill you.
47:44He will harm you.
47:46Don't listen to him.
47:47It's a trick.
47:49Beware of man called crown.
47:52He will harm you.
47:54What are you doing?
47:56Exposing a fraud.
47:58Do not move.
48:01It is forbidden.
48:10Jerry.
48:11I'll show you.
48:14Go back.
48:16Go back.
48:17It's not possible.
48:20There are no spirits.
48:22Go back.
48:24Go back.
48:25No.
48:43No.
49:13No.
49:43No.
