Myra and Billy Savage are a married couple living in London. Myra works as a medium, who holds weekly meetings, séances, for a regular group of customers, while Billy supports her in these ventures, as he does not otherwise work, due to his asthma. "Arthur" is her spirit guide, who was their stillborn son. Myra is the dominant in the couple, Billy, the weak-minded follower. Myra, with Billy's support, devises a scheme to raise her public prominence as a medium: kidnap Amanda Clayton, the young daughter of a wealthy couple, and using her psychic powers provide information to the Claytons and the police of Amanda and the requested ransom money's whereabouts. Myra and Billy view this scheme as a victimless crime, if a crime at all, as they don't plan on harming Amanda, and they are returning the requested ransom. To carry out the scheme successfully, they will have to: kidnap Amanda; convince Amanda that her temporary captivity is not out of the ordinary, while having her not be able to identify them; insert Myra into the case of Amanda's kidnapping, her information which will be the key to finding Amanda and the money; and return Amanda and the money without having either traced back to them. Beyond these logistics, Myra and Billy themselves will factor into how the plan works. Myra may have either conscious or subconscious thoughts on what she wants to do, in her belief that she truly does have the power.

00:00:47What what what is it?
00:00:55No, no, no
00:01:00You
00:01:06a message yes
00:01:15The young face is waving
00:01:19Peaceful very peaceful
00:01:40No, my darling, it's all right my precious no
00:01:49You
00:02:19You
00:02:49You
00:03:19You
00:03:49You
00:04:19Naughty raining like that very naughty
00:04:44Turn on the light Billy
00:04:47Put the thing up
00:05:14We should have to test it from the outside
00:05:16Of course
00:05:26It's not what it used to be
00:05:30Not his room any longer
00:05:33But Arthur understands
00:05:36We're doing it with his blessing. That's just how he put it. He said you have my blessing
00:05:47Comfy little bed this I
00:05:50Remember when I slept in it
00:05:55You never slept in that bed, yes, I did dear that time you will remember
00:06:01No, I don't remember
00:06:03No, it's not important here what you say Billy what anybody says is important
00:06:11This was always Arthur's bed
00:06:14Till he went to school
00:06:17I've never allowed anybody to sleep in it
00:06:23Yes, of course
00:06:27Well, she'll be nice and comfy in this what
00:06:36What does it look like
00:06:39Very neat
00:06:41No, no
00:06:42I mean, what does it all look like the overall effect if you'd never seen it before and you suddenly woke up in that bed
00:06:49Where would you think you were
00:06:53In a hospital
00:06:56Yes
00:06:58Exactly in hospital
00:07:02Not very clever ones, huh, it's going to work Billy
00:07:08Plants kind of hurts
00:07:12You
00:07:35Yes
00:07:38Perfect did you put the extra strong bulb in? Yes, 150 watt. Well, you saw me put it in
00:07:45Good. It's fine then. I
00:07:50Couldn't see anything
00:08:07I
00:08:25Look at the dust in this place. You've seen the dust. I thought our mother Jackson was supposed to have done this out before she
00:08:31Went on holiday
00:08:34Well, we can live with it I can't live with it I hate dust
00:08:42Lovely for her she's on abroad this year, you know, I said to her where are you going to your holidays this year?
00:08:46Mrs. Jackson, well, I felt sorry for I thought she'd be stuck at Margaret or somewhere getting a usual third-degree burn
00:08:53Not a bit of it. We're going to France. She said in my Cyril's new car
00:08:57You can imagine that can't you five of them?
00:09:00Crammed in the mini with her Cyril at the wheel
00:09:06Nightmare
00:09:10Still it suits our purposes further away the better till it's all over
00:09:20You want that on do you yes, it helps me to concentrate
00:09:27Forced it to be a marvelous opportunity not to have her back
00:09:30We're not giving up a treasure or anything like that. She only does it for gossip
00:09:34You can do without that according to the directions
00:09:38It takes a couple of hours. So we might as well make a stop
00:09:43You think we ought to start now
00:09:49Yes, that's what I just said
00:09:51Yes, that's what I just said this is it's done very well you can finish that later
00:10:02Well, we're not having any last-minute doubts are we Billy, you know, it's too late for that
00:10:09We have to go through with it exactly as planned
00:10:14Now it's the only time with mrs. Jackson safely way
00:10:21Yes
00:10:27You want that car don't you Billy, you know the one you saw you want things to be different not only for me
00:10:33But for all of us
00:10:42The car isn't why I'm doing it
00:10:51Listen Billy, listen, will you carefully
00:10:56Knew that I can never tell when you're really listening to me
00:11:00And try to understand
00:11:03Really what I am
00:11:05What I am can't just be thrown away, can it?
00:11:10And it's not wrong. What we're going to do is not wrong. We're doing it for his sake
00:11:14Arthur wants me to be recognized for what I am. I
00:11:18Had to be convinced myself before I told you I mean, I know it's different for you
00:11:24I've known that all along and I do try to make
00:11:40So quiet in here
00:11:48Suddenly so terribly quiet
00:11:55Did you turn that off
00:11:58No, dear, you did it yourself. I did I turned I wanted it on. Why would I turn it off?
00:12:05Well, then it must have been me
00:12:10Why did I ever marry you Billy
00:12:13I don't know dear. Why did you?
00:12:18Because you're weak and because you need me
00:12:28Well, those are two good reasons
00:12:36I
00:12:38Don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know
00:12:48We've had so much sorrow Billy
00:12:52Too much sorrow, but it's all going to be changed now. Everything's going to be different
00:13:02You know what I sometimes wish I
00:13:05Like you
00:13:07dead ordinary
00:13:10Ordinary and dead like all the others
00:13:13Too much sorrow Billy
00:13:19And you can't buy your own happiness at the expense of somebody else's unhappiness
00:13:28Who was it that said that do you know yes
00:13:34Who
00:13:36Arthur said it
00:13:42Of course
00:13:46Fancy you remembering
00:13:53He didn't say it to you lady
00:13:58No, dear you tell me oh, yes
00:14:05Funny he's never been close to you
00:14:08Not that I blame you. It's easier for me
00:14:11You don't have my gift
00:14:14It all might have been different if mummy hadn't left me this house
00:14:22She wanted me to have it they read it out the solicitor read it out of the will
00:14:31He said
00:14:34Just there
00:14:38We've never really quarreled have we except about this house you ever thought of that
00:14:45Yes, I've thought about it dear
00:14:47Still I have made it up to you in other ways haven't I?
00:14:51Yes, lots of ways
00:14:53And you do need me, don't you?
00:14:58We'll say it then
00:15:00I
00:15:04Don't have to say I wouldn't be here would I if I didn't
00:15:11No
00:15:12But I do think you had second thoughts just now not that I mind. I mean, I understand it's not easy for you
00:15:19But you did have second thoughts didn't you well?
00:15:23Not second thoughts as such. No, but what then well
00:15:28As you said I don't have your gift
00:15:34Yes, right I do keep forgetting that
00:15:43You see when they first found out when I was little you remember I told you about my aunt she was the first one
00:15:52She knew she tumbled it
00:15:54She used to go on endlessly to mummy in this room I used to hear them
00:16:03I used to creep to the top of the stairs to listen
00:16:09Then at Sunday tea all the family came and I had to perform
00:16:17I had to get up and do my party piece
00:16:20And in the end I began to enjoy it to look forward to it
00:16:29It was nice being different
00:16:33I mean you didn't get told off you just had all the nice things all the
00:16:40See it wasn't a trick it was there all those years ago here in this room
00:16:45It wasn't a trick it was there all those years ago here in this room and it was real
00:16:52It was happening to me I didn't have to make it up
00:16:59Don't you see that's why that's why it has to happen Billy
00:17:06Otherwise what's it all been for
00:17:09Just to take a collection every Wednesday afternoon rain or fine
00:17:16I mean eight pounds ten and a biscuit tin
00:17:28It has to be more than that Billy it has to be
00:17:32And Arthur's quite certain you see
00:17:39If you're ready
00:17:43Well then

00:25:29Walter!
00:25:43I won't hurt you, I promise.
00:25:47It's only a game. I promise, cross my heart, it's only a game.
00:25:59It's only a game.
00:26:20Hey! Here!
00:26:24Thanks, mister!
00:26:26Well, play further away next time, you'll hit someone!
00:26:57Don't be afraid, dear.
00:27:01Don't be afraid.
00:27:04It's only a game.
00:27:26It's only a game.
00:27:56It's only a game.
00:28:27I think it needs one more good rinse.
00:28:30Can you manage?
00:28:31Yes, I can.
00:28:33I'll just go have another look at her.
00:28:56Okay.
00:29:27I've had another look at her. She's still all right.
00:29:32Well, don't fuss.
00:29:35The worst thing you can do with children is to fuss.
00:29:38It confuses them.
00:29:46Read this to me, will you?
00:29:48I want to hear how it sounds.
00:29:50I'll read it to you.
00:29:52Read this to me, will you?
00:29:54I want to hear how it sounds.
00:29:57Use this in case we want to make corrections.
00:30:02You want me to read it out loud, do you?
00:30:06Yes.
00:30:09Well, could we have that a little quieter, please?
00:30:14Billy, I do wish you weren't such a bore about good music.
00:30:22Dear sir, this is to notify you that your daughter...
00:30:25Don't call.
00:30:27That's not a good start. Too formal.
00:30:30Cross it out. We don't need an introduction.
00:30:33This is to notify you that your daughter is in our possession.
00:30:38She is quite safe, and if you follow instructions, she will remain safe.
00:30:44By this time, you will have informed the police.
00:30:48That was to be expected, but...
00:30:50Do not tell them about this letter...
00:30:54Full stop after letter. Do not tell them about this letter.
00:30:57Destroy it.
00:30:59We are professionals, and we mean business.
00:31:02You will find enclosed a lock of your daughter's hair as proof.
00:31:08Wait.
00:31:10Change that. Lock means curl.
00:31:15Make it a piece, her hair straight.
00:31:19Or just some.
00:31:20Peace.
00:31:24Peace.
00:31:26Enclose a piece of your daughter's hair as proof.
00:31:30Your instructions are as follows. Full stop. One.
00:31:35You will put an advert into the personal column of tomorrow's evening standard...
00:31:39to the effect that you are willing to oblige and sign it...
00:31:45and sign it with your Christian name.
00:31:48Good.
00:31:50This advert you will address to Longfellow.
00:31:53Full stop. Two.
00:31:57You will get a blue BOAC overnight bag and put into it 25,000 pounds.
00:32:06You will be informed later by telephone where and when you are to deliver the money.
00:32:11After delivery, your daughter will be returned unharmed.
00:32:17But if these instructions are not followed perfectly...
00:32:21or if there is any attempt to detain the man to whom...
00:32:27That doesn't have an E, does it?
00:32:30What?
00:32:31Whom?
00:32:33No.
00:32:35Oh, you've got one.
00:32:38If there's any attempt to detain the man to whom you will give the money...
00:32:43you will never see your daughter alive again.
00:32:49Signed, Longfellow.
00:32:53I suppose we need that last bit, do we?
00:32:55Yes, we need it.
00:33:00Even though we don't mean it?
00:33:02Even though we don't mean it. They have to believe we mean it.
00:33:08Yes, I...
00:33:10I suppose the truth of the matter is I haven't...
00:33:14taken it in yet.
00:33:18What we've done.
00:33:20What have we done?
00:33:22We've borrowed a child, that's what we've done.
00:33:26Yes, they have...
00:33:28another word for it.
00:33:32We have borrowed a child, Billy.
00:33:34Borrowed, borrowed. Just keep saying that.
00:33:38Now, get on with your day.
00:33:40I'll be back down shortly.
00:34:05Very good, Billy.
00:34:14It won't be a joke anymore, will it?
00:34:16Once you've posted it.
00:34:20It never was a joke, Billy.
00:34:22No, but you know what I mean.
00:34:24Once you post it...
00:34:26no one else is going to use the word borrow.
00:34:29Oh, Billy.
00:34:32How many times must I tell you?
00:34:35What we're doing is a means to an end.
00:34:39Now, you agree with the end, don't you?
00:34:42Well, then you must agree with the means.
00:34:45You can't have one without the other.
00:34:49Burn these after I leave.
00:34:53But we're not going to keep the money...
00:34:55and the child won't be hurt in any way.
00:34:58No.
00:35:00Except if it goes wrong.
00:35:02Who's going to believe that?
00:35:04I mean, we can't expect anybody to believe the real reason.
00:35:09The trouble is, Billy, you lack imagination.
00:35:13You miss all the good things in life...
00:35:15just because you won't reach that bit further...
00:35:18to touch the truth.
00:35:22Say you love me.
00:35:28I love you.
00:35:31You couldn't live without me, could you?
00:35:35I mean, you tried it once, and you had to come back.
00:35:39And I took you back, didn't I?
00:35:43You made me promise, remember?
00:35:48You promised me.
00:35:52Yes.
00:35:55I promised you.
00:36:01Go on, post your letter.
00:36:05And come back safely.
00:36:08Say, come back safely.
00:36:12And come back safely.
00:36:25No.
00:36:31Oh, God, oh, Jesus.
00:36:33Take it before it's too late.
00:36:55Girl missing.
00:36:57Where? Oh.
00:37:00The only daughter of Charles Clayton...
00:37:02wealthy chairman of Clayton Industries Ltd...
00:37:04was last night stated to be missing from home.
00:37:09That doesn't say much, does it?
00:37:11They never do at first. That doesn't worry me.
00:37:14I want it to stay that way.
00:37:16I want it to stay that way.
00:37:18I want it to stay that way.
00:37:20I want it to stay that way.
00:37:22Amy, I want it to start slowly.
00:37:25You get her breakfast, I'll show you.
00:37:52DOOR OPENS
00:38:23Good morning, Amanda.
00:38:24How are you feeling this morning? A bit better?
00:38:37Just going to take your temperature...
00:38:39and then you can have your breakfast.
00:38:42Who are you?
00:38:44Nice scrambled eggs, and we don't want them to get cold, do we?
00:38:48Lie back and open your mouth.
00:38:50I want to know who you are first.
00:38:52I'm your nurse.
00:38:55What nurse?
00:38:56Nurse Johnson. Under the tongue.
00:39:00There. No talking now.
00:39:12You're in hospital.
00:39:14Ever been in hospital before?
00:39:17Well, then you'll know how to behave.
00:39:26You didn't take that long enough.
00:39:29Didn't I?
00:39:31No. Dr. Loxton takes ages.
00:39:35Why am I in hospital?
00:39:37Why?
00:39:39Yes. Caroline says you only go to hospital to die.
00:39:43Who's Caroline?
00:39:44My best friend.
00:39:48Well, Caroline is just being silly.
00:39:51No, she isn't. She's very clever.
00:39:54She's a Christian scientist.
00:39:57Oh, is she?
00:40:00Here we are.
00:40:03What have I got?
00:40:06German measles.
00:40:08Had it.
00:40:10Had it.
00:40:12Oh, no, this is a very special kind.
00:40:15Double German measles.
00:40:17Very catchy.
00:40:21Is it very special?
00:40:23Mm, very.
00:40:25That's why you've got it all to yourself.
00:40:29I was at school. I wasn't ill.
00:40:32Yes, you were.
00:40:34You were sent home from school, don't you remember?
00:40:38Now, eat your breakfast.
00:40:42Why have you got that on your face?
00:40:46I have to wear it in case I catch your measles.
00:40:49I'm afraid I can't.
00:40:51I'm afraid I can't.
00:40:53I'm afraid I can't.
00:40:55I'm afraid I can't.
00:40:57Catch your measles.
00:41:03You eat it up.
00:41:20You didn't tell us you'd be going...
00:41:22You didn't tell us you'd be going home soon.
00:41:24I think you ought to tell us.
00:41:26I thought you were going to tell her that right away.
00:41:28Well, I forgot.
00:41:34You know, with children, you have to tell them,
00:41:37set their little minds at rest right away.
00:41:40Bibi, what do you know about children?
00:41:43They're really quite adaptable children.
00:41:46They're like little animals.
00:41:48You know how animals look in the pet shop, in the windows?
00:41:51When you see them, they...
00:41:53You take them home and you feed them,
00:41:55and they adapt in a matter of hours.
00:41:59Billy?
00:42:04Yes, dear, you're right, I'm sure.
00:42:08Well, you remember what Arthur was like at her age.
00:42:12I mean, they're quite pleased to be sick.
00:42:15Makes them feel different and important.
00:42:23Billy?
00:42:31I wonder, could you help me?
00:42:34Oh, do you know where Mr and Mrs Clayton live?
00:42:40Well, in what connection is it, madam?
00:42:42I want to see Mr Clayton.
00:42:44Do you have an appointment?
00:42:47No, I don't.
00:42:49Well, this is the house, but I don't think Mr Clayton can see you.
00:42:52It's not official business, is it?
00:42:56No.
00:42:58But I really do think he would see me if he knew what I'd come about.
00:43:03Well, have you come about, then?
00:43:07Something that vitally concerns him at this moment.
00:43:15Well, I'll ask up at the house.
00:43:18Come with me.
00:43:22Thank you.
00:43:29Hey, miss!
00:43:36I'd like to see Mr Clayton.
00:43:39Thank you.
00:43:54We'll just have to cancel. That's no problem, surely.
00:43:58Thank you, Colin.
00:44:00Yes, officer, what is the matter?
00:44:02I'm sorry to trouble you again, sir, but I believe this lady has some information regarding...
00:44:05This is my card, Mr Clayton.
00:44:09Who is it, darling?
00:44:11Look, I don't know, sweetie. I'm just finding out.
00:44:14All right, officer, I'll deal with this.
00:44:16Oh, perhaps you'd better hang on a moment.
00:44:18Carla, will you ask Mrs Miles...
00:44:20Oh, it's all right. Mrs Miles, will you get the constable a cup of coffee, please?
00:44:23Would you like one, darling?
00:44:25No.
00:44:26Will you come this way, Mrs Savage?
00:44:28Oh, I'm so sorry. Darling, this is Mrs Savage, my wife.
00:44:33No, I'm sorry. That's all I have to say.
00:44:36Who was that?
00:44:38Nothing, Mr Clayton. Just another newspaper.
00:44:40Get me some cigarettes, Sheila, will you?
00:44:42A couple of packets, box 100 and...
00:44:45Oh, I'm sorry. Sit down.
00:44:51Yes, Mrs Savage, what information do you have?
00:44:54Well, I'm afraid I don't have anything definite that is definitive.
00:44:59But I read the papers this morning and I felt I must come.
00:45:04You see, last night I had a dream.
00:45:09A dream?
00:45:10Yes.
00:45:13Mrs Savage, I don't want to be rude, but we've been up all night.
00:45:18Now, I'm sure you came here with the best of intentions,
00:45:20but we've had offers of help from other people like yourself.
00:45:23We had a man in here half an hour ago,
00:45:25who offered to find our daughter with the aid of a divining rod.
00:45:27You do see, don't you?
00:45:29Yes, of course, but there is a difference.
00:45:32You see, I'm a professional medium
00:45:35and my dreams are not without significance.
00:45:38What sort of dream was it?
00:45:42I saw a little girl sitting alone.
00:45:44She was lost.
00:45:46I was quite sure she was lost.
00:45:48Of course, that in itself wouldn't help.
00:45:51I was quite sure she was lost.
00:45:53Of course, that in itself wouldn't mean much,
00:45:55but the symbolism was very strong.
00:45:58Symbolism?
00:46:00Yes.
00:46:02The little girl was surrounded by clay.
00:46:04Wet clay.
00:46:06And when I read your name in the papers,
00:46:08I coupled it with the clay.
00:46:13I see.
00:46:17Darling, you don't have any cigarettes, do you?
00:46:19No, no, I haven't.
00:46:22And that means something, does it, Mrs Savage?
00:46:27Oh, yes.
00:46:29Yes, the connection between the clay and your name
00:46:34was too strong to ignore.
00:46:36Was that all?
00:46:37No.
00:46:39The child in my dream used some names.
00:46:43Names?
00:46:45Yes.
00:46:46She said Caroline, first of all.
00:46:50That's her best friend at school.
00:46:53Yes, well, she kept saying that.
00:46:55And then, just before my dream ended,
00:46:58she said Hedge.
00:47:01Could that mean anything?
00:47:03Yes, Hedgey, that's her toy.
00:47:06Well, it's a sort of funny old hedgehog,
00:47:08all falling to pieces.
00:47:09She won't ever sleep without it.
00:47:12Well, it must be that, mustn't it, darling?
00:47:15You see, she had it with her when...
00:47:17when she'd taken it to school with her.
00:47:21It's something to go on, isn't it?
00:47:25Nothing else, Mrs Savage?
00:47:27No, just those three things.
00:47:30Mrs Savage, you...
00:47:33you are a professional medium, are you?
00:47:36Yes.
00:47:38Darling, what do you think we ought to do?
00:47:41Just a minute, sweetie.
00:47:44Mrs Savage,
00:47:46again, I don't want to appear rude or ungrateful,
00:47:49but what you've just told us, you could have learned by accident
00:47:51or by half a dozen other different ways.
00:47:54People gossip.
00:47:55I have a staff. They gossip.
00:47:57You could have read about it in a magazine.
00:47:59They're always writing things about my wife.
00:48:01Anyway, you could have come by this information in a dozen different ways.
00:48:04Yes, but the point is that I didn't.
00:48:06I had a dream.
00:48:07The point is, Mrs Savage, and forgive me,
00:48:09I don't know why you came to see me. I'm not the police.
00:48:12If your dream means so much, and presumably you think it does,
00:48:14I find it very odd that you didn't go to the police first.
00:48:17Now, let me ask you a question, Mrs Savage.
00:48:19What do you want out of it?
00:48:21Darling, I'm sorry.
00:48:22Well, what's in it for you?
00:48:24You must have some angle.
00:48:27You think I'm after money.
00:48:29Well, it's possible, isn't it?
00:48:31People do do things for money. It has been known.
00:48:35I'm so sorry.
00:48:37I'm obviously wasting your time,
00:48:39but I do understand.
00:48:41Goodbye, Mrs Clayton, and don't worry.
00:48:44I know your little girl is safe.
00:48:46You don't know anything of the kind,
00:48:48so don't give my wife any false hopes.
00:48:50I'll tell you something that wasn't in your dream, Mrs Savage,
00:48:53and I might just as well tell you because it'd be in the papers any moment.
00:48:56Our little girl has been kidnapped.
00:48:58She's being held for ransom.
00:49:01I'm so sorry.
00:49:02No, no, exactly. Thank you for coming.
00:49:05Yes, speaking.
00:49:07I'm terribly sorry, Mrs Savage.
00:49:09It's just that we're both so worried.
00:49:10No, I've got nothing to say.
00:49:11Although I do think the fact that they've gotten in touch with us
00:49:13means that she's safe, don't you?
00:49:15I mean, they usually do this sort of thing for the money, don't they?
00:49:18Nothing else.
00:49:19I'm quite sure she'll be all right,
00:49:21and I do understand your husband not having time for me.
00:49:24No, nothing.
00:49:25But I'm never wrong about these things.
00:49:28Thank you very much for coming.
00:49:30Anything helps at the moment.
00:49:32Oh, Sheila, will you show Mrs Savage out?
00:49:35Thank you.
00:49:37Look, if I get one more call from you, I'll have the phone disconnected.
00:49:44What about those bastards, darling?
00:49:46They want to take a picture of you and me in her bedroom.
00:49:49What with them and that phony bitch and her stupid dreams.
00:49:52I've just about had enough.
00:49:53Yes.
00:49:57Well, I don't care about any of them, really.
00:50:00I don't care what pictures they take or who finds them.
00:50:07Just as long as we get her back.
00:50:12Excuse me, ma'am.
00:50:15Excuse me.
00:50:16I wonder if I could trouble you for one of those cards.
00:50:18I'm sorry.
00:50:19Your name and address, ma'am.
00:50:20I'm supposed to make a note of everybody who comes and goes.
00:50:23Oh.
00:50:25Yes, of course.
00:50:26It's purely for the record.
00:50:27Thank you.
00:50:28Oh, by the way, those buds hanging about the gate.
00:50:31Reporters.
00:50:32Take my tip and walk right past.
00:50:33You don't want to get mixed up with them.
00:50:37Oh, no.
00:50:38Of course not.
00:50:40Thank you for telling me.
00:50:41I'll use the other gate.
00:50:51She wants some cocoa and some potato crisps.
00:50:55We haven't got any, have we?
00:50:57We have cocoa.
00:50:59What about crisps?
00:51:02Listen.
00:51:06Turn out the light.

00:54:22It slipped off.

00:54:25Oh, dear.
00:54:26Well, accidents will happen.
00:54:29Or perhaps you'd fallen out of bed.
00:54:31The nurse is just making your drink.
00:54:33Did you enjoy your dinner?
00:54:35I don't like eating in bed.
00:54:37You get all cramps.
00:54:39Yes, I found that.
00:54:41Are you really a doctor?
00:54:44Yes, of course.
00:54:46You don't smell like a doctor.
00:54:49Don't I?
00:54:51Well, what do doctors smell like?
00:54:53All pepperminty.
00:54:55Well, we'll have to do something about that.
00:54:57The nurse will be up in a tick.
00:55:00You'll be all right.
00:55:02The nurse will be up in a tick.
00:55:05You'll be all right.
00:55:29What was it?
00:55:31Oh, she just dropped her tray.
00:55:35She's really bright, you know.
00:55:37Really quite bright.
00:55:39What about the police?
00:55:40Will they be back?
00:55:42Yes, but not tonight.
00:55:45Watch that, will you?
00:55:46It's about to boil.
00:55:47Well, they must suspect something.
00:55:50Everyone's under suspicion once they've made contact.
00:55:53I knew they'd call.
00:55:55They were just a little more efficient than I'd imagined, that's all.
00:55:59I'm not ready for that.
00:56:02I think we should take her back now.
00:56:05Tonight, while there's still time.
00:56:10I need some sugar.
00:56:11Did you hear what I said?
00:56:12Sugar.
00:56:13Look, it's not going to work.
00:56:15If we do something now, we might just get away with it.
00:56:18What would we get away with, Billy?
00:56:20Nothing.
00:56:21We'd just be taking all the risks with none of the benefits.
00:56:25Mara.
00:56:27We...
00:56:28I committed a criminal act.
00:56:31I kidnapped her.
00:56:32I didn't borrow her.
00:56:34And they're on to us.
00:56:37They made a call, that's all.
00:56:40Part of a routine investigation.
00:56:44If they'd had any strong suspicions,
00:56:46they never would have left so easily, now would they?
00:56:49But they'll be back. You said so yourself.
00:56:51Yes.
00:56:53They'll be back, but not tonight.
00:56:55They won't be back tonight.
00:56:56First thing tomorrow morning.
00:56:57What difference does it make?
00:56:58A great deal of difference, Billy.
00:57:00She won't be here tomorrow morning.
00:57:16Billy, what was our plan?
00:57:18Our beautiful, perfect plan.
00:57:22How brave, how excited we were.
00:57:25Don't you remember?
00:57:26Conceiving it?
00:57:28Have you forgotten, Billy?
00:57:30We were going to do something so perfect, so pure,
00:57:33that would harm no one,
00:57:35would only do good.
00:57:37And we've made a start, a wonderful start.
00:57:40It's all going exactly as we said.
00:57:43And when we've done the rest,
00:57:45when we've got the ransom money,
00:57:47and it's all over the front pages,
00:57:49that's when it can all come true for us, Billy.
00:57:52I'll make it come true.
00:57:53I'll tell them where she can be found,
00:57:55and where the money is hidden.
00:57:58Well, I have to do this little lie, Billy,
00:58:01so they can know the whole truth.
00:58:05That's what you want, isn't it?
00:58:10It's what you've always wanted,
00:58:12ever since...
00:58:18Well, ever since I can remember.
00:58:20You've wanted nice things for me, haven't you?
00:58:24That's true, isn't it?
00:58:27Yes, that's true, dear.
00:58:29So you know what you have to do tonight,
00:58:32just as we rehearsed it.
00:58:50Come on.
00:59:17Yes, Barnett 3.
00:59:18Charles Creighton here.
00:59:22This is Longfellow.
00:59:24Keep him talking as long as you can.
00:59:26Yes, yes, I'm here.
00:59:29Where's my little girl?
00:59:31What have you done with my baby?
00:59:35Please tell me she's all right.
00:59:38I... I...
00:59:40Hello?
00:59:42Hello!
00:59:44Yes, well...
00:59:46Listen,
00:59:48listen carefully.
00:59:51Yes, yes, I'm listening.
00:59:53Have you got the money ready?
00:59:55Yes.
00:59:56In the BOAC bag?
00:59:57Yes.
00:59:58Then listen to me.
01:00:00Go alone
01:00:02to Leicester Square
01:00:04to the phone box nearest to the taxi rank
01:00:07in the northwest corner.
01:00:09Yes, sir?
01:00:10Yes.
01:00:13Keep him talking. They're tracing it.
01:00:15Yes, yes, I'm listening.
01:00:16Go inside it
01:00:17and wait there.
01:00:19Don't do anything.
01:00:21Don't use the phone.
01:00:23Just go inside
01:00:25and wait there.
01:00:27Have you got all that?
01:00:28Yes.
01:00:31Would you repeat that last part again, please?
01:00:34Northwest corner,
01:00:36last boom.
01:00:39Northeast?
01:00:40West, west.
01:00:42I've said it three times.
01:00:44Have you got it now?
01:00:45Yes.
01:00:46Well, that's all then.
01:00:47Wait!
01:00:51Don't hurt my baby.
01:01:01I can't believe it's on.
01:01:16I can't believe it.
01:01:40Where to?
01:01:46That could have been fatal
01:01:48if I hadn't made you turn your pockets out.
01:01:50You know that, don't you?
01:01:53Yes, I'm...
01:01:54I'm not a master criminal, you know.
01:02:11Is it clear outside?
01:02:12Yes, absolutely.
01:02:13Shall I take a look?
01:02:14No, I can manage.
01:02:15You take care of those.
01:02:16Are you sure she won't wake up?
01:02:17She couldn't possibly.
01:02:39I've been thinking.
01:02:40What if the police haven't been by the time I get back?
01:02:44What?
01:02:46Oh.
01:02:47Yes, that is something.
01:02:50Well, we'd better have a signal then.
01:02:51I'll...
01:02:52I'll hang a shirt on the line and leave it there
01:02:54until the police have been and gone.
01:02:56Yes, right.
01:02:58If it's still there,
01:02:59keep driving round and coming back to check.
01:03:01Right.
01:03:02Otherwise, stick exactly to the plan.
01:03:05Yes.
01:03:14Cheers, mate.
01:03:44Cheers, mate.
01:04:14Cheers.
01:04:44Shit.
01:05:14Shit.
01:05:44Yes.
01:06:01Yes?
01:06:02I'm a police officer.
01:06:03Detective Sergeant Beadle.
01:06:04Could I have a word with you, Mrs Savage?
01:06:06Oh, yes, of course.
01:06:08Won't you come in?
01:06:15Excuse me.
01:06:17Please.
01:06:28We, er...
01:06:29We called last night, but, er...
01:06:31you were out, I think.
01:06:33Oh, yes, we were.
01:06:35It's not about the radio licence, is it?
01:06:37No, it's nothing like that.
01:06:39It's just...
01:06:40It's just...
01:06:41It's just...
01:06:42No, it's nothing like that.
01:06:44No, it's nothing at all, really.
01:06:46It's just a check.
01:06:47It's in connection with that little girl
01:06:49missing from Barnet.
01:06:56After your visit yesterday,
01:06:58the police at Barnet asked us to check.
01:07:00Character and so on.
01:07:01I was able to tell them that you weren't known
01:07:03officially to us, et cetera,
01:07:05and that was all above board.
01:07:06But they asked if we'd just have a look
01:07:08round the house.
01:07:13He doesn't work in this area, does he?
01:07:16Your husband?
01:07:18He doesn't work at all, I'm afraid.
01:07:20He suffers from ill health.
01:07:22Oh, yes.
01:07:23I remember my wife mentioning it.
01:07:25Asthma, isn't it?
01:07:27Yes.
01:07:28Sometimes it's worse than others.
01:07:34I'm sorry.
01:07:35I'm sorry.
01:07:36I'm sorry.
01:07:37I'm sorry.

01:09:05I'm sorry.
01:09:06I'm sorry.
01:09:07I'm sorry.
01:09:09This isn't your room, I take it?
01:09:12No, my husband's.
01:09:13He sometimes uses it when he gets an attack.
01:09:18It's fairly dust free.
01:09:21I know.
01:09:38I'm sorry.
01:09:39I'm sorry.
01:09:40I'm sorry.
01:09:41I'm sorry.

01:09:55I'm sorry.
01:09:56I'm sorry.
01:09:57I'm sorry.
01:09:58I'm sorry.
01:09:59I'm sorry.
01:10:00I'm sorry.
01:10:01I'm sorry.
01:10:02I'm sorry.
01:10:03I'm sorry.
01:10:04I'm sorry.
01:10:05I'm sorry.
01:10:06I'm sorry.
01:10:08I'm sorry.
01:10:23This is where I hold my meetings.
01:10:27Do you?
01:10:28Yes.
01:10:30Well, I'm not taking sides, one way or the other.
01:10:34I keep out of it where my wife's concerned.
01:10:37Well, I suppose there's something in it.
01:10:40I think so.
01:10:43Well, you would, of course, yeah.
01:10:46What about Mr. Savage? Does he go along?
01:10:51He believes in what I believe.
01:11:08I don't know.
01:11:34Does your husband drive many?
01:11:37No, just an old motorbike.
01:11:41It's William Savage, isn't it?
01:11:44William Henry.
01:11:47Oh, yes. My wife has tried to remember.
01:13:08I don't know.
01:13:26Long time. Quick, quick!
01:13:29Quick!
01:13:37Quick, quick!
01:14:37Quick, quick!
01:15:07Quick, quick!
01:15:37Quick, quick!
01:16:08How is she?
01:16:10She's all right, I think. None the worse. A bit hot, perhaps.
01:16:15I kept looking at her whenever I could.
01:16:18You weren't followed, were you?
01:16:20No, I doubled back a couple of times, just looking.
01:16:23What did you say?
01:16:25Yes, nothing much.
01:16:27What did you say?
01:16:29Nothing much.
01:16:31What did you say?
01:16:33Nothing much.
01:16:35Yes, nothing much.
01:16:37No, but you said hot.
01:16:39You hid the money, did you?
01:16:41Yes, but what do you mean, hot?
01:16:43What I said, Billy, what I said. A bit hotter than usual, that's all.
01:16:47Yes, but what does that mean?
01:16:49It means, and do not shout at me, that she has a bit of a temperature, I suppose.
01:16:56It's nothing unusual in children.
01:16:59How would you know?
01:17:05We're mad, you and me.
01:17:09We're both mad.
01:17:21Are you asleep?
01:17:23Myra, are you asleep?
01:17:26What is it?
01:17:28Come in here a minute.
01:17:29What is it?
01:17:31Come in here a minute.
01:17:38What's wrong?
01:17:40Come and look at her.
01:17:42With my uniform on?
01:17:44It doesn't matter. Look, just come and look.
01:17:52You feel her for it.
01:18:00Now, tell me that's normal.
01:18:04Yes, she is still very hot.
01:18:06Well, of course she's hot. I took her temperature. It's way up.
01:18:10Get another blanket there.
01:18:23I'll have to get her a doctor.
01:18:29Billy, don't be stupid.
01:18:33What do you mean, don't be stupid?
01:18:36Where are you going?
01:18:38What's stupid about it? The child's ill and we've got to have a doctor.
01:18:42Look, don't walk away when I'm talking to you. What are you doing? I'm telling you what we've got to do. We've got to get a doctor.
01:18:46Put that down and listen to me for a minute.
01:18:49What are you looking in here for? You won't find the answer in a book. I'm telling you what the answer is.
01:18:53Are you, Billy, are you? You know the answer. It's so simple, is it? We just call the doctor.
01:18:56Now, what should we say, Tom, do you think? Should we say that we've borrowed a...
01:19:01Oh, you don't like that word, do you?
01:19:04We'll say we've kidnapped a child and ask him to treat it in confidence.
01:19:10Is that what we should do, Billy?
01:19:16We don't really know that there's anything wrong at all, do we?
01:19:21We'll get medicine for her in the morning.
01:19:23There's no harm that can come to her in a warm bed, is there?
01:19:26I don't know. I don't know anything any longer.
01:19:29Except you do know I'm right, don't you? That I'm right.
01:19:35No, we have to take turns to sit in with her. You want to take the first turn or shall I?
01:19:43I'll take it.
01:19:53I'll take it.
01:20:24Billy? Billy!
01:20:28What is it?
01:20:32The mother's disappeared.
01:20:35We can't hold your meeting this afternoon. We must put it off.
01:20:40I'm giving half the adult dose. Do you think that's all right?
01:20:45Once every four hours, that's all right.
01:20:48Dose. Do you think that's all right?
01:20:51Once every four hours, that means one...
01:20:53Mara.
01:20:54No, and one at 2.30.
01:20:56Mara, we must put it off.
01:20:58The very worst thing we could do is change the normal routine.
01:21:01But the baby will be in the next room.
01:21:03That's right, Billy, and you'll sit with her after you've got everyone in.
01:21:07We're not going to put it off, Billy.
01:21:09We'll just make people suspicious.
01:21:12I'm not putting it off.
01:21:18I'm not putting it off.
01:21:48I'm not putting it off.
01:22:06Good afternoon.
01:22:07Good afternoon.
01:22:14Good afternoon.
01:22:16Move out, please.
01:22:28Excuse me.
01:22:34Oh, good afternoon.
01:22:36Good afternoon.
01:22:38Is Mrs. Savage holding her usual meeting this afternoon?
01:22:41Oh, yes. Won't you come in, please?
01:22:43Thank you.
01:22:45You haven't been before, have you?
01:22:47No, no, I haven't.
01:22:48May I have your name, please?
01:22:50Clayton.
01:22:52Mrs. Clayton.
01:22:57Upstairs. The, um...
01:23:00The room's upstairs.
01:23:02Oh. Thank you.
01:23:16Stay here.
01:23:30Yes, I've just seen her.
01:23:32I thought she might come.
01:23:34But you can't with a child in here. You just can't.
01:23:37Oh, yes, Billy, yes.
01:23:39Oh, it's good that she's come, don't you see?
01:23:42It's good.
01:23:43It strengthens my connection. Now I can help her.
01:23:46I can help her, Billy.
01:23:50Now she can share my truth.
01:23:59Good afternoon.
01:24:00Good afternoon.
01:24:13Good afternoon.
01:24:43Shall we make ourselves at home?
01:25:13What?
01:25:35What?
01:25:38What?
01:25:39What is it?
01:25:44He had a car.
01:25:47A red car.
01:25:50Going over a bridge.
01:25:53Going home.
01:25:56Happy.
01:25:58Oh, they're all singing.
01:26:02He sends his love.
01:26:05That's my friend. That's my darling.
01:26:08Take good care of all at number 43.
01:26:14I will, my darling.
01:26:17We put flowers on your grave last Sunday, me and the girls.
01:26:21Somebody else?
01:26:26Worried?
01:26:29Somebody on my left?
01:26:32Somebody on my left.
01:26:39Your guardian angel has put candles on both your knees.
01:26:45One on each knee.
01:26:47A white one on the left and a blue one on the right.
01:26:53He's telling you not to worry.
01:26:57Mommy?
01:27:02You are worried.
01:27:04About a...
01:27:07A church.
01:27:11No.
01:27:15About a child.
01:27:17Mommy?
01:27:21You're worried about a little girl.
01:27:24Mommy?
01:27:25Oh, yes.
01:27:28No need to worry.
01:27:31No need.
01:27:33She's quite safe.
01:27:36She's being taken care of by three...
01:27:42Three people who are concerned about her future happiness.
01:27:47Mommy?
01:27:51Oh, she's playing. She's happy. She...
01:27:56All the future is happiness.
01:27:59Mommy?
01:28:05When...
01:28:07When will I see her again?
01:28:10What is it, Arthur?
01:28:14Well, say it. Then what?
01:28:16Please.
01:28:18When will I see her?
01:28:20Mommy?
01:28:23Please.
01:28:25When?
01:28:27Not...
01:28:29Not that.
01:28:30No.
01:28:31No.
01:28:33No.
01:28:49What is it, dear?
01:28:55Dad.
01:28:59It's all right. She'll be all right in a minute.
01:29:03It's all right, dear. You're all right.
01:29:07You fainted.
01:29:14Me?
01:29:15Silly me.
01:29:17I fainted?
01:29:19That's very silly of me.
01:29:21Yes, just sit quietly for a bit.
01:29:24I think perhaps we'll stop it here for today.
01:29:28Yes, yes, of course, Mr. Savage.
01:29:31If, um...
01:29:33Someone could perhaps help me. I'll get her to her room.
01:29:36Yes, yes, of course.
01:29:37Let me.
01:29:40Mr. Savage, who is going to die?
01:29:44Die?
01:29:45Yes, you said the word. Who was it for?
01:29:47What's it to do with me?
01:29:49Nobody's dead.
01:29:51No, not dead. Dying.
01:29:53I distinctly heard you say it.
01:29:56No.
01:29:58Nobody's dead.
01:30:00If you don't mind, Mrs. Winchester, please.
01:30:22I'll, uh... I'll just see them out, dear.
01:30:26You're sure you'll be all right?
01:30:28Yes, I'm fine. I'm fine.
01:30:33I do apologize.
01:30:35Please accept my wife's apologies. She's overtired, I think.
01:30:38Oh, yes. Yes, of course.
01:30:46What do I owe Mrs. Savage?
01:30:49Oh, nothing. Nothing, please.
01:30:51But I must. I...
01:30:53Oh, well, I'll send her something through the post.
01:30:55Please, I assure you.
01:30:56Oh, no, I'd like to.
01:30:58You see, I... I am so worried, and she has given me some hope.
01:31:04Whatever my wife told you, I'm sure will come true.
01:31:10You... You will thank her for me, won't you?
01:31:13Yes, of course.
01:31:24Billy?
01:31:32Billy, I've got something to tell you.
01:31:35Something tremendous to tell you.
01:31:38Come in here.
01:31:54Oh, there you are.
01:31:56I was just going to call you again.
01:31:59Isn't it a wonderful afternoon?
01:32:02I'm always so surprised.
01:32:04So bright after a seance.
01:32:08Brightness just seems to fall from the air.
01:32:12Have you noticed?
01:32:14Yes.
01:32:17Oh, no.
01:32:19You don't notice.
01:32:20Yes, I do.
01:32:22What is it you want to tell me?
01:32:25Arthur was very close this afternoon.
01:32:28He was so close, he kept talking about...
01:32:31love, that was the word he used.
01:32:33He was chattering on, I couldn't keep up with him.
01:32:37He so wants her to be happy.
01:32:40Her?
01:32:41Yes, the child.
01:32:43He's grown so fond of her since she's been using his room.
01:32:46That's what gave him the idea.
01:32:49Idea? What idea?
01:32:51Well, it's very simple, really.
01:32:54And as Arthur says, it's the answer for all of us.
01:32:58And for the plan.
01:33:00He says she doesn't really want to go back.
01:33:04He says she'd be much happier with him.
01:33:10I don't know.
01:33:11He says she'd be much happier with him.
01:33:16Then they'd have to take notice of me, wouldn't they?
01:33:20I mean, they couldn't ignore me.
01:33:22If we do what he says,
01:33:24it would make the whole thing that much more important.
01:33:27And he kept saying,
01:33:30how much happier she'd be
01:33:32if we sent her to him.
01:33:37Myra.
01:33:39Arthur didn't say anything.
01:33:41You said it.
01:33:42It was you.
01:33:43It's what you've been thinking.
01:33:47He didn't say it.
01:33:48It's you.
01:33:49It's all you.
01:33:51Of course he said it.
01:33:52Arthur doesn't, Arthur doesn't exist.
01:33:55He's never existed.
01:33:57He was dead.
01:33:58He didn't live.
01:33:59He was dead, Myra.
01:34:00He was born dead.
01:34:01You never saw him.
01:34:02I was the only one who saw him.
01:34:04They wouldn't let you see him.
01:34:05It's you, Myra.
01:34:06It's always been you.
01:34:08No.
01:34:09Yes, it has.
01:34:10No.
01:34:11It's what you want.
01:34:12No.
01:34:13Yes, this last thing was you.
01:34:15You thought of it.
01:34:16No.
01:34:17You're the one who wanted her to die.
01:34:18You thought of it.
01:34:19It's only in your mind.
01:34:21That's not true.
01:34:22You mustn't say that.
01:34:23That is not true.
01:34:24Arthur is dead.
01:34:27You've always wanted him so much,
01:34:28but he's dead.
01:34:30All those clothes you've got upstairs
01:34:32on the roof,
01:34:33that's in your mind too.
01:34:35You don't have to say it.
01:34:36Yes.
01:34:37No.
01:34:38Yes, I have to say it.
01:34:40And you have to hear me.
01:34:41This time, you have to hear me.
01:34:43Please.
01:34:44Say it.
01:34:45Please.
01:34:46Arthur is dead.
01:34:47He was born dead.
01:34:48Believe me.
01:34:49Go on, say it.
01:34:51Say it!
01:34:52No!
01:34:53I know he's dead.
01:34:54I know that.
01:34:55I do know that.
01:34:56But I do talk to him.
01:34:58And he does talk to me.
01:34:59Please don't make me say it.
01:35:00He doesn't talk to me.
01:35:01Please.
01:35:02I do, and I see him.
01:35:04I have never, and I do see him.
01:35:06That's why I want her.
01:35:08She makes me feel so much closer to him.
01:35:10That's why, Billy.
01:35:14Billy?
01:35:15Oh, Mara.
01:35:18Oh, Mara, what to do now?
01:35:21It's what I have to think about.
01:35:22What to do now?
01:35:24I have to think.
01:35:25I have to think.
01:35:27I have to think.
01:35:28I have to think.
01:35:29I have to think.
01:35:30Billy.
01:35:31Mara, don't say any more.
01:35:32Billy.
01:35:33Just let me think.
01:35:35Billy, please.
01:35:37Just do this for me.
01:35:39So I can keep her.
01:35:41It wouldn't be fair to take away from me now.
01:35:45Mommy?
01:35:55Hey.
01:35:56You go back to bed.
01:35:58You catch cold.
01:36:01What were they all shouting about?
01:36:03Well, they...
01:36:05It was just a game.
01:36:07This isn't really a hospital, is it?
01:36:10Hospitals rule the night.
01:36:12Oh.
01:36:15You stay in bed this time like a good girl.
01:36:19You'll be home soon, I promise.
01:36:27Good night.
01:36:52I must have...
01:36:54left her door unlocked.
01:36:57What are you doing, Billy?
01:37:00Rushing in to see you.
01:37:04Yes, Billy.
01:37:12She's seen you, Billy.
01:37:15She's seen your face.
01:37:21Do it for me, Billy.
01:37:24Then we can both be safe forever.
01:37:27Come on.
01:37:57Come on.
01:38:27Come on.
01:38:57Come on.
01:39:27Come on.
01:39:51You see how easy it was, Billy?
01:39:54She didn't suffer.
01:39:55She didn't feel anything.
01:39:57She just went to sleep.
01:39:59Now she's safe with us.
01:40:06You don't want me to say that anymore, do you?
01:40:10I won't.
01:40:11I promise you I won't.
01:40:12Because of all the things you've done for me.
01:40:20Billy, look at me.
01:40:25I won't ever forget.
01:40:27Never.
01:40:33Just a few more hours,
01:40:35and I'll go and tell them where they can find her.
01:40:38And it'll all come true,
01:40:40just as Mummy said.
01:40:44Are you cold?
01:40:50You look cold.
01:40:53It's always cold in this room, isn't it?
01:40:56Even in the afternoons when the sun comes in,
01:40:59it never really warms it up.
01:41:02Billy, we won't stay here.
01:41:04Once it's over, once it's over, we'll go away.
01:41:07You'd like that, wouldn't you?
01:41:11We'll never quarrel again.
01:41:14I'll just do things to please you.
01:41:21Say you love me.
01:41:23You know I love you.
01:41:31I want to read over
01:41:34exactly what it is I want to say.
01:41:44That's the evening papers. Would you get it, Billy?
01:41:53No.
01:42:05She won't.
01:42:06She won't.
01:42:36She won't.
01:42:52This is
01:42:55Superintendent Walsh.
01:43:04Superintendent Walsh.
01:43:07Good evening, Mrs Savage.
01:43:09I'm sorry to call you like this without warning.
01:43:12Oh, that's quite all right.
01:43:14You know Sergeant Beadle, I believe?
01:43:16Yes, good evening, Mrs Savage.
01:43:18Yes, we had a long talk a few days ago.
01:43:21Yes, well, as a matter of fact, that's why I'm calling on you.
01:43:24Once again, this is not an official visit as such.
01:43:26I just thought perhaps you might be able to help us a little further
01:43:29in your professional capacity.
01:43:31I'm sorry, I...
01:43:33The little girl missing from Barnard.
01:43:36You gave the parents some information, I believe.
01:43:39Yes, that's right.
01:43:41Before I go any further, Mrs Savage,
01:43:44I think I ought to say that, of duty, I'm not a non-believer.
01:43:48As a matter of fact, I'm president of my local society for psychical research.
01:43:52Oh, are you?
01:43:54How very interesting.
01:43:56Yes, it is very.
01:43:58Well, I'm a very keen president.
01:44:00Every one or two papers published.
01:44:02Nothing much, just our own magazine.
01:44:03I'm mostly concerned with the Croner experiments.
01:44:07Oh.
01:44:09Oh, yes.
01:44:12Of course, I know the Croner experiments.
01:44:15As I'm sure you know, they've followed them up in Austria
01:44:18with startling results.
01:44:20I went into it when I was there on holiday last year.
01:44:22Rather a busman's holiday, I suppose,
01:44:24but I like to get to the end of things.
01:44:27That's why I'm here.
01:44:30I wondered if you would consider holding a seance for me.
01:44:33Here?
01:44:35This evening?
01:44:37Well, if it's at all possible.
01:44:39We seem to have drawn a blank with orthodox methods,
01:44:41and since you didn't make contact before,
01:44:43you might be a great help again.
01:44:45Of course, it's only a request.
01:44:47You're quite at liberty to refuse.
01:44:50What, um...
01:44:52What help do you think my wife could give you?
01:44:56Well, in a case like this, Mr Savage,
01:44:58we are grateful for small mercies.
01:44:59And since your wife does appear to have powers
01:45:01beyond the ordinary, I'd like to make use of her.
01:45:04You already enjoy a very considerable reputation,
01:45:06Mrs Savage.
01:45:08Do I?
01:45:10Oh, yes, indeed.
01:45:12The news in our particular circle,
01:45:14if I may put it like that,
01:45:16may not travel widely,
01:45:18but it travels very surely.
01:45:20You want me to give you exact information
01:45:22about the little girl.
01:45:24Is that it?
01:45:26Well, it doesn't have to be exact, Mrs Savage.
01:45:27Just a clue.
01:45:29That's all we're looking for.
01:45:31And you want to have the seance now?
01:45:33If that's at all possible.
01:45:35Speaking as a policeman now,
01:45:37time isn't exactly on our side.
01:45:40Well, I, uh, usually have a circle.
01:45:43Yes, well, I thought we'd ask the Beagle here
01:45:45and Mr Savage.
01:45:49Oh, my husband isn't a regular sitter.
01:45:53Oh, I don't think that matters.
01:45:55I'd like him to be.
01:45:57I'd like him to be on this one.
01:45:59Will you excuse me a moment?
01:46:01Do you suppose you can get the station
01:46:03on the car radio from here?
01:46:05Well, I can't say for certain, sir.
01:46:07You don't know?
01:46:09I'm not positive.
01:46:11But you think it's possible?
01:46:13Well, yes, but I couldn't say for sure, sir.
01:46:15Right, you wait outside.
01:46:17So sorry.
01:46:19Right, Mrs Savage, if you'll show us where.
01:46:21Yes.
01:46:23This way, please.
01:46:25Good evening.
01:46:27Good evening.
01:46:55I haven't got a match.
01:46:57A match?
01:46:59Will a lighter do?
01:47:01Oh, yes, please.
01:47:07Would you turn out the light?
01:47:13Superintendent there.
01:47:15Billy over there.
01:47:20Mr Beagle.
01:47:28Is there anything special you want us to do?
01:47:33No.
01:47:35It's a great help to me
01:47:37if we all give ourselves up completely
01:47:40and concentrate,
01:47:42but nothing special.
01:47:44I have no tricks.
01:47:46I'm sure you don't need them, Mrs Savage.
01:47:49Could we all join hands?
01:47:52I'm sorry.
01:47:53Could we all join hands?
01:48:00And now,
01:48:02concentrate on one thing.
01:48:06Empty your minds of everything
01:48:08except the subject.
01:48:23Thank you.
01:48:51It's tea time.
01:48:53My precious, it's tea time.
01:48:55I have to go downstairs.
01:48:57Everybody's waiting.
01:49:01Downstairs.
01:49:05We want to be a good girl today.
01:49:09Good girl.
01:49:12No, no, no good saying you're tired.
01:49:15It's Sunday, you're never tired on Sunday.
01:49:18I mean, you got butter on your chin.
01:49:26Look!
01:49:31I'm standing at the top of the stairs.
01:49:37Look at me.
01:49:42Stop that shouting.
01:49:46No, I won't, I won't.
01:49:49No, don't.
01:49:51Don't make me go downstairs again.
01:49:53Don't make me go today.
01:49:55I want to stay with Arthur.
01:49:59Arthur.
01:50:07You can't see him.
01:50:10You can't see him.
01:50:12You will never see him.
01:50:16All that waiting.
01:50:20All that time.
01:50:24Nothing.
01:50:28Nothing to hold.
01:50:34My baby.
01:50:37Yes.
01:50:42Arthur, why are you waiting under the tree alone?
01:50:50In the dark?
01:50:52Why are you waiting there?
01:51:01Mummy, why is he waiting under the tree?
01:51:06No, it's all different.
01:51:10I said die.
01:51:13Die?
01:51:18I said dead.
01:51:19He is not dead.
01:51:21He is not dead.
01:51:22He is not.
01:51:28Are they away?
01:51:30Why are you waiting there?
01:51:33All alone?
01:51:34She should be there.
01:51:36She should have come by now.
01:51:38Where is she?
01:51:43Oh, she was here.
01:51:45She was here in Arthur's room.
01:51:51Oh, she saw him.
01:51:53She saw Billy.
01:51:55She saw him.
01:51:57She saw him.
01:52:02Oh, yes.
01:52:04I'm coming, precious.
01:52:05I'm coming.
01:52:06I'm coming.
01:52:08Billy, you've taken her.
01:52:11You've taken Billy.
01:52:13Take her.
01:52:14Kill her.
01:52:15Arthur's waiting.
01:52:16Billy.
01:52:17Take her.
01:52:18Billy.
01:52:19Kill her.
01:52:20Billy.
01:52:21Take her.
01:52:22Arthur's waiting.
01:52:23He's waiting.
01:52:24Billy.
01:52:29I'm coming.
01:52:32Precious, I'm coming, I am.
01:52:34I'm coming, you know.
01:52:35You wait.
01:52:37It's all right.
01:52:38Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
01:52:40Wait for me.
01:52:42Wait for me.
01:52:44Wait for me.
01:52:46Wait for me.
01:52:49It's all right, precious.
01:52:56It's all right.
01:53:07Where did you hide the money, Mr. Savage?
01:53:12In the coal bunker.
