00:00Good night, love. God bless.
00:30Where do you think you're going?
00:59You did give me a start.
01:00You know the rule about unaccompanied women being out in the streets after nine.
01:04I was only going to me rooms.
01:06Yes? Where's that?
01:07Right down there.
01:09All right. Hobbit.
01:11Is he about tonight?
01:13Is who about?
01:14You know who. Or else what are you doing out in this damp?
01:17Im, the murderer.
01:19Look, Hobbit.
01:20The same as butchered all those girls.
01:22Either you buzz off or I'm going to walk you down to the police station.
01:26What?
01:40All's well around here, George.
02:09All's well around here.
02:38What do I look like?
03:06Who can I be?
03:07All the blinking coppers is out after me.
03:09They think I'm here.
03:11They think I'm there.
03:12But when they come to collar me, I'll vanish in the air.
03:15Oh, what do I look like?
03:16Who can I be?
03:18Well, here's a bit of something you can say of me.
03:22I ain't a butcher.
03:24I ain't a kid.
03:26And I ain't a foreign skipper.
03:29I'm just your own dear loving friend.
03:37Yours truly, Jack the Ripper.
03:46A surgeon's scalpel.
03:49An instrument of mercy in the hands of a skilled physician.
03:53A lethal weapon in the hands of a madman.
03:56A murderer such as the subject of our story for tonight.
04:00Now, no one knows who this man was.
04:02No one ever saw his face.
04:04His identity has always been one of the world's great mysteries.
04:08He killed only women.
04:10And only a certain kind of women.
04:13And his murders were often accompanied by stranger, forbidding rights.
04:19For months on end, he terrorized London.
04:22Defying whole divisions of police.
04:24And it was they who nicknamed him Jack the Ripper.
04:28Well, he disappeared from the scene as suddenly as he had come.
04:32But similar murders followed at intervals in other countries.
04:38There are many who believe that Jack the Ripper still walks the earth.
04:42Still continues his diabolical activities.
04:47That's a chilling thought.
04:50Especially when it's accompanied by highly convincing proof that it may be true.
04:56Let us discover the facts for ourselves in the company of such distinguished players as...
05:02Mr. John Williams.
05:05Mr. Donald Woods.
05:09Mr. Edmund Ryan.
05:12And Miss Nancy Valentine.
05:17I suggest that you viewers draw just a little closer together.
05:22The Ripper always struck down solitary victims, you know.
05:26It would be a pity if a member of our audience became dismembered.
05:48If you remember, gentlemen, I sent you a telegram after the July killing.
05:53Watch for another murder in exactly 24 days.
05:58We've been getting all kinds of phony tips, crank letters, phone calls, all sorts of things.
06:04But that third murder did occur, didn't it?
06:08Exactly 24 days after the July killing.
06:13But that third murder did occur, didn't it?
06:16Exactly when I said.
06:21In the same district. In the same way.
06:25And I've flown in from Washington to tell you that there will be another murder three nights from now.
06:32What is he, a crystal gazer?
06:34I told you, sir, Guy's in the British Embassy.
06:37Medical liaison Captain Jaco.
06:39M.D. Fellow in the Royal College of Physicians and ex-pathologist to Scotland Yard.
06:44Well, that's quite a record, but it doesn't mean you can see what's gonna happen night after tomorrow.
06:48Sir, Guy says there'll be six murders all told unless we stop them.
06:57What we have here is a psycho, a schizo. Isn't that right, Johnny?
07:00It's possible, Pete.
07:02Dr. Carmody is consulting psychiatrists with the police department.
07:05Now, why don't you talk this over with him?
07:07Captain Jago feels that the murderer is a psychopath whose aberrations are paranoid.
07:12That perhaps he's trying to imitate Jack the Ripper.
07:15I don't agree. It is Jack the Ripper.
07:18These murders have been repeated at certain intervals ever since they first began.
07:22Now, I have a chart here which shows...
07:24A chart. They always have a chart.
07:26All right, Pete. Let's see what it is, shall we?
07:28Now, these murders reoccur every three years and eight months.
07:32As rhythmic as the tides.
07:34For the past 70 years, they've left a trail of blood all around the world.
07:38And the record of it is here with places and dates.
07:41Now, they began in London in 1888.
07:45And the next group of six murders occurred in Jersey City, 1891, 92.
07:51Then Shanghai, then Vladivostok at the turn of the century, and so on and so on.
07:55Now, here are news reports, a police photograph.
07:59I worked on these cases for 30 years, been over the actual ground, talked with officials.
08:04Now, none of these Ripper murders received the notoriety of those in London.
08:08Many went almost unnoticed, but they did occur.
08:11The pattern is there, the trail of unsolved crimes.
08:15Now, here is the projection of the present series of murders.
08:19Look for yourself, sir. What does it show?
08:21Just what you said. Another killing coming up.
08:24But it can't be Jack the Ripper.
08:26If he's still alive, he'd be 90 or more.
08:28He is alive, and he's in the city.
08:31Sir Guy, a man that age is a very frail creature.
08:35When a woman, anyone, is struggling for life, she becomes strong, desperately strong.
08:41A man the Ripper's age couldn't possibly handle him.
08:44Suppose he hasn't got any older.
08:47What was that?
08:49I said suppose Jack the Ripper hasn't got any older.
08:52Jack the Ripper hasn't got any older.
08:55But everybody gets older.
08:58Police, doctors, maniacs, everybody.
09:01Not everybody, Captain Jacob.
09:03Well, with all respect, sir Guy, you must admit that by the natural process of living...
09:09What about the unnatural processes of living, and these most unnatural murders?
09:15I've studied everything about them.
09:17Especially their dates, and the pattern made by those dates.
09:20I've studied their rhythm, the solar and lunar rhythm.
09:23The sidereal aspect, even the astrological significance.
09:27Now suppose Jack the Ripper didn't murder for murder's sake alone.
09:33Suppose he wanted to make a sacrifice.
09:36What kind of sacrifice?
09:39Well, it is said that if the blood sacrifice is made at the proper time...
09:43...with the proper ceremonies, when the moon and the stars are right...
09:47...the gods grant a boon.
09:50A boon of eternal youth.
09:56You seriously suggest that Jack the Ripper is still young?
10:00You'll see for yourself if we catch him.
10:03I just don't believe it.
10:05We'll go into that another time.
10:08Now I'll leave this material here with you, if you don't mind.
10:12You can find me at my hotel.
10:16But the important thing is...
10:18...have I persuaded you to take special precautions three nights from now...
10:22...and prevent another murder?
10:25I hope so, gentlemen.
10:33Lunar rhythms, blood sacrifices, boons of youth.
10:37This cookie is really crumbling.
10:40You know, if you really made an effort, I think you could get the other foot in your mouth.
10:43What do you mean by that?
10:45I think he means you might be more tactful, Pete.
10:48Tactful? I have got three unsolved killings on the blotter.
10:51I'm supposed to be charming to every flaco who comes in here with a cloudy crystal ball?
10:56That flaco, as you call him, happens to be one of the world's foremost doctors.
11:00And the mayor says we've got to humor him.
11:02Aha! Now it comes, the mayor.
11:05And all along, I thought that you were under Sir Starchy's spell.
11:09It is possible, Pete, that you've been talking when you should have been listening.
11:12All mouth and no ears at all.
11:14No, I mean it. We have three murders here and not a single clue.
11:17And in comes a man, not just any crackpot, mind you, with a theory.
11:21Unnatural processes, eternal... Are you kidding?
11:25Not at all. He predicted the latest killing, gave you the date and the district.
11:28He did that?
11:29And now he says he can tell you when the next murder will take place.
11:32Bourgeois! Have you got any better theories, Captain Jago?
11:36Well, since you don't, obviously...
11:39You will extend Sir Guy every courtesy and cooperation.
11:42You know, he may win you a promotion in spite of yourself.
12:09Shouldn't Jago be back by now?
12:11He's getting reports from his men.
12:14He has quite a few of them staked out.
12:21I think this is him coming now.
12:39Give me the phone.
12:44Come in 14, this is 12.
12:47Anything over there?
12:52Yeah.
12:54Well, keep your eyes open.
13:09Come on.
13:34Give me the mic, Joe.
13:39Yeah, Charlie.
13:41Jago.
13:42Back already?
13:43Yeah, I'm back.
13:44Everything okay there?
13:45Yeah, we got the whole area blanketed.
13:47Walkie-talkies at every stake-out.
13:49You've got an awful lot of ground to cover.
13:51Yeah.
13:52We're checking every alley and dead-end five times an hour.
13:56Can you close in fast enough?
13:59Well, if we get an alarm, we can surround any spot within 30 seconds.
14:03Let's hope he shows.
14:05If he does, we're ready.
14:08I'll talk to you later.
14:09Do that.
14:18So, we are going by your chart, Sir Guy, waiting for the Ripper.
14:22But that doesn't mean I buy it.
14:2490 years old and still looks like a young man.
14:27Well, evidently you've never heard of the Count de Saint-Germain.
14:30The Count who?
14:31Saint-Germain.
14:32It's a matter of record that for 150 years he remained unchained.
14:35He was attached to the French court.
14:37Voltaire called him the man who never dies and who knows everything.
14:40He'd never tell how old he was or where he came from.
14:42Are you trying to tell me that this Count and the Ripper are the same?
14:46No, no, no.
14:47He was a fabulous character.
14:49No one ever saw him eat.
14:51Are you kidding?
14:52It's a mystery how he prolonged his life, but he did.
14:55Modern medical science are working toward the same end today.
14:59But I believe Jack the Ripper has achieved his own dark and dreadful way of doing it.
15:05What do you mean by that?
15:06Well, I think somehow he thrives on the very lives he takes.
15:12Most of his murders are like satanic rites.
15:15Blood sacrifices, you mean?
15:18No, it goes deeper than that.
15:20Well, if he's in the city, a cook like this wouldn't be hard to spot.
15:24It's a guy who thinks he may be associating with the avant-garde.
15:28What?
15:29Painters and musicians.
15:31Well, John, is he?
15:33What do you mean?
15:34Well, he means most of them end up in my studio.
15:37Your studio?
15:38A vestige of my misspent youth.
15:41You may not believe this, Sir Guy, but before I went into medicine, I studied sculpture.
15:46And I still have some of my bohemian blood.
15:49Artsy, crafty, hocus-pocus.
15:52It's a lot of hogwash.
15:54Superstition.
15:55Like the way people used to believe that a murdered man's eyes would open
15:59if the person who killed them passed by.
16:02His wounds start bleeding again.
16:05Believe me, those things don't happen.
16:07I know.
16:08I've tried them.
16:10I'll tell you something else.
16:12I don't believe anybody's gonna get knocked off tonight.
16:15The Ripper will come.
16:17He has to.
16:19Oh, we'll see.
16:21I'm just gonna check around again.
16:32♪
16:57You live around here?
16:59Yeah, just up the block.
17:01We have orders to see all you girls safely off the streets.
17:04Why?
17:05We don't want you getting hurt, that's all.
17:08You really think this guy's around here?
17:10Who knows?
17:11Come on, let's go.
17:13♪
17:30This your place?
17:31Yeah, down there.
17:33You wait here while I check it out.
17:35♪
17:45All right, come on.
17:47♪
17:54Let me hear you bolt it.
17:56Thanks.
17:57♪
18:27♪
18:47♪
18:57Hello?
18:59Yeah.
19:00Who's this?
19:02♪
19:07Oh, it's you.
19:09Yeah, I sure remember you.
19:12Yeah, I guess I could.
19:16Yeah, I know where it is.
19:18I guess 20 minutes, half an hour, I don't know.
19:21What's the number?
19:2357.
19:25Yeah, I got it, 57 and just walk in.
19:29Okay.
19:30Okay, honey, see you in a little while.
19:34♪
19:48♪
19:57♪
20:07♪
20:17♪
20:27♪
20:37♪
20:47♪
20:57♪
21:07Nobody saw him.
21:08The guy was right again, wasn't he?
21:11And I'll give you another date, Captain Jago.
21:14The night of the 22nd.
21:16I can't worry about that.
21:17I've got enough here.
21:19When I think I have this whole section staked out, covered,
21:23and the papers, they'll go big for this one.
21:26♪
21:31♪
21:36♪
21:41♪
21:46♪
21:50Soon after Jack the Ripper disappeared from London,
21:53an artist said to be an American vanished from his lodgings
21:57and left some bloodstained clothing behind.
22:00Later on in Dusseldorf, after similar murders,
22:03the police learned of a man who spent all his time studying in art galleries.
22:08In Cleveland, a man who had vanished was said to be an art dealer.
22:12And in Bordeaux, France,
22:14they discovered an artist who always destroyed his pictures,
22:18which is what the man in London had done.
22:23Now, none of these men were traced.
22:27But I believe it was the same person each time.
22:30Sir Guy, tell them what makes you think
22:32the Ripper might be hiding among the artists here.
22:35Art is limitless.
22:37It would give him an interest in living.
22:41Also, he'd be less conspicuous among unconventional people.
22:45I still don't see how a man can be 90 years old and look young.
22:50Where is that chart you told us about?
22:52Well, the police have it at the moment.
22:54But you know, there's a strange rhythm to the Ripper's murders,
22:58just as there are cyclical rhythms which control other things.
23:02There are rhythms which control the sunspots.
23:05Every 17 years, a particular type of locust swarms and flies.
23:10Every 14th year, the price of nutmeg peaks, then drops again.
23:15But in the Ripper's murders,
23:19there's always 126 days between his first and second murder,
23:24but only half that, 63 days between the second and the last, the sixth.
23:30Isn't it weird?
23:32I've heard of these rhythms. What causes them?
23:35Ah! That's one of the mysteries of the universe.
23:39Well, what do you want us to do?
23:41Sir Guy just wanted to tell us why he's here. Maybe we can help him.
23:44And when do you expect the Ripper to rip again?
23:46Sir Guy says Saturday night.
23:48But that's Les Beston's party night.
23:50That's right. You'll find almost all the local painters there.
23:53It's kind of a trade show, artists only.
23:55But we'll get you in.
23:56I was doing a picture for it now.
23:58That's right. And if anybody's interested,
24:00I'm ready for you to look at it right now.
24:06There you are. What do you think?
24:09I don't see why you had to paint me with all those dead flowers, Hymie.
24:14You... you just spoiled a good picture.
24:17If that's the way he sees you, Arlene, you can't argue with it.
24:28Oh, he's dropped a little spats of oil on it.
24:31It's still wet. It looks like it's going to dry.
24:34He's dropped a little spats of oil on it.
24:36It's still wet. It looks like dew.
24:38But it's not.
24:40When I was painting it, I wanted to paint fresh, beautiful flowers, Arlene.
24:43But that's the way it came out.
24:45And that's not dew, Rowena.
24:47Those are teardrops.
24:49Sir Guy's been talking about cycles and rhythms and murder
24:53and things we can't account for.
24:55Well, like I said, I'm with him.
25:00All the time I was putting Arlene's face on that canvas,
25:03that song was going through my head.
25:06I'm your own dear, loving friend.
25:10And I had a feeling with it.
25:12What feeling, Hymie?
25:14Come on, tell us.
25:17If you want to know,
25:19I feel like I'm standing looking down at wreaths and dead flowers.
25:25And my heart is weeping inside.
25:29And don't anybody ask who's below those flowers and wreaths.
25:34Hymie, you...
25:36You get the silliest, the most lunatic ideas.
25:40He's such a sensitive boy.
25:42Just look at his work.
25:44He's been reading about that girl.
25:46You know, they're burying her tomorrow.
25:48Isn't that right, Hymie?
25:50I don't know.
25:53But the feeling stays with me.
25:56You have a morbid imagination, Hymie,
25:58associating Arlene with that dead girl.
26:00Say, I have a wonderful idea.
26:02Why don't we all go down to the cemetery?
26:04I just love funerals.
26:30Look at the crumbs.
26:32Any one of them could be the Ripper, or whatever he is.
26:35We may as well have a look around.
26:37You never know.
26:39When this is over, you watch this gate.
26:42I'll take the one down there.
27:00She's looking at us!
27:03She's looking straight at us!
27:30THE RIPPER
27:51More gravy for the papers.
27:53Look at this from New York.
27:55Here she is right after the casket broke.
27:57The whole front page. And get this headline.
27:59Four murders, and the last corpse opens its eyes.
28:02Here's another.
28:04Dead four days, but who is she looking at?
28:06I've never known a four-day-old cadaver open its eyes.
28:09Have you?
28:11Never. All nature's against it.
28:13Now, I'd like to see what you think of this.
28:15You have four murder spots here.
28:18When there are six,
28:20and you join them together in the right way,
28:22they'll form a sign.
28:24Now, I have one here from the Black Mass.
28:27He formed it in Calcutta.
28:29And another he formed in Milan.
28:32The medieval sign for Beelzebub.
28:35But why does he do it?
28:37An invocation to the dark gods, perhaps.
28:41But if I could guess the sign he's making now,
28:44I could say approximately where the next murder will occur.
28:48Maybe you can figure it out.
28:50I intend to try.
28:52But it could be any one of a thousand.
28:54All this jazz about the Ripper living off the lives he takes.
28:57It doesn't make sense.
28:59If you told me it was his son or something,
29:01I might buy it.
29:03It might even be a psycho imitating the Ripper.
29:05But that is all it is.
29:07Leave it right there, Pete.
29:09And look at all the time we wasted
29:11on that crummy idea about the dead girl looking at them.
29:14Are you finished? No.
29:16I don't think we should just stake out that arty party.
29:19I think we should do more than that.
29:21What gave you the idea we weren't?
29:23We're going to that whole area with extra lighting.
29:25Flood lamps, field lights, keep the streets lit up.
29:28You think that'll stop him?
29:30No.
29:32It'll give us a better chance to see him.
29:34How about all those people you were discussing?
29:36Will they be at the party?
29:38Everybody will be there.
29:40Including Jack the Ripper?
29:42I believe he will.
29:54Ah, Sarkar.
29:56Have some punch.
30:10Now if only Lester would get here.
30:12He'd have a good time.
30:14I'm sure he would.
30:16I'm sure he would.
30:18I'm sure he would.
30:20I'm sure he would.
30:22If only Lester would get here, we can get started.
30:26Lester! Lester!
30:32What color, what feeling.
30:34What a pity you'd have no talent.
30:40Oh, that's a nice hat, Chloe.
30:42I like it better every time I see it.
30:47It's positively egregious.
30:49It gives me a feeling, a certain something.
30:53Nausea.
30:59Ah, you do have taste, Rowena.
31:03Bad taste, but taste.
31:05What?
31:07Have you picked out the Ripper yet?
31:09No, not yet, Mr. Burse.
31:11Let me tell you how to catch him.
31:13Everybody here knows Sir Guy.
31:15He's the man that's looking for Jack the Ripper.
31:17He thinks he's here among us.
31:19Tell you what we're going to do.
31:21We're going to put Sir Guy in the middle of the room
31:23and turn out all the lights.
31:25Then when you feel him at your throat,
31:27all you've got to do is grab him.
31:29That's a very good idea, Mr. Baston.
31:31But there's just one little thing wrong with it.
31:33The Ripper is only interested in women.
31:37Excuse me.
31:39Ah.
31:41Well, now to the business at hand.
31:47I have to slip away soon on account of my little girl.
31:49It's her, Jaime, painted in the picture.
31:53You can see she has hair like mine,
31:55only it's finer and it's much lighter.
31:59Yes, she looks charming.
32:01A natural platinum blonde.
32:03I'm proud of her.
32:05She stays with her grandmother most of the time
32:07while she's been sick lately.
32:09Been in the children's hospital four days.
32:13You know, she won't even go to sleep at night
32:15until I go and say goodnight to her.
32:19I'm only waiting to see who gets the ribbons
32:21and then I'm going to leave.
32:23Oh, I wanted to see me looking pretty.
32:29You're more than pretty.
32:31You're beautiful.
32:33Well, I know I'm supposed to be,
32:37but I've never been told that by anyone like you.
32:41That's something after all the English beauties you must know.
32:45Yes.
32:49After all, Mr. Carmody is counting the ballots now
32:51and as soon as he gets them counted,
32:53he'll bring them here.
32:55Les, here are the winners.
32:57Oh, thank you, Mr. Carmody.
33:03It's the gold ribbon.
33:05He's going to get that one first.
33:07The best picture in the room...
33:11Right here.
33:13I'm so happy!
33:15I'm so happy!
33:17This picture, I mean, won!
33:19I won!
33:21I won!
33:23Who cares about dead flowers now?
33:25I won!
33:27I'm going to sleep away now,
33:29but I'm going to come back and congratulate him.
33:31Bye.
33:37Where's Arlene?
33:39She's gone to the children's hospital.
33:41She said she'd be right back.
33:43We'll tell her later.
33:45I won, old girl, I won!
34:11I won!
34:41I won!
35:11I won!
35:25All the while...
35:27All the while,
35:29I had that feeling there'd be dead flowers.
35:31Me looking down on them.
35:33And here I am.
35:37Been coming here every day.
35:41It gets me.
35:43Did I know something was going to happen?
35:45Like it was fated?
35:49Or did I give somebody the idea?
35:55You see what I mean?
35:57Was it really just a crazy thought I had,
35:59but the Ripper heard me talking about it
36:01and made it come real?
36:03I always believed he was hiding
36:05among the sort of people you and John know.
36:07It had to be someone who knew
36:09that way.
36:11Yeah.
36:13It's funny.
36:15I picked these out and sent them for the kid.
36:17She hasn't been told yet.
36:19Her grandmother's got her now.
36:23I used to think about marrying Arlene.
36:25You know,
36:27we get along real fine.
36:29And...
36:35Let's go, huh?
36:39Hey, listen, wait a minute.
36:41You think I ought to talk to the police about it?
36:43I don't think it would help, Hymie.
36:45Everybody knew about the painting
36:47and about the child being in the hospital.
36:49Yeah, I suppose so.
36:51It's just an idea.
36:53I get the shivers
36:55when I think about that Ripper
36:57being around all the time
36:59and nobody knows him.
37:01He's five down and one to go now,
37:03isn't that right?
37:05Does your chart say when
37:07when he'll do the next?
37:09Nine days after that happened.
37:11And a week has gone already.
37:13Yeah.
37:29You all know what that is, of course.
37:31Crux Capitata.
37:33Also called the Christian cross.
37:35The sign of signs.
37:37No single emblem is more exalted.
37:39Now, I said that the Ripper
37:41was making a sign on your map here.
37:43This is where Arlene was murdered.
37:47Now, I found a sign
37:49which fits these five spots.
37:51And I think it indicates
37:53where he will attempt his last killing.
37:55It's a sign used in the irreligious
37:57black mass.
37:59The broken cross.
38:01See where this falls?
38:03The East Street and Bow Lane.
38:05I worked out the exact spot.
38:07It's the north corner.
38:09The north corner.
38:11Well, you know the place.
38:13A lot of arty people used to go there.
38:15Yeah, it's changed hands.
38:17They've got strippers in there now.
38:19Now, I've seen that sign before.
38:21Our vice squad raids some very peculiar places.
38:23They don't just use the broken cross
38:25in the black mass.
38:27They break a crucifix.
38:29Yes, I know.
38:31I think he's hit the place this time, too.
38:33Yes, but that may be
38:35the wrong sign.
38:37Now, this one fits
38:39all five places,
38:41but it sets the six
38:43over here.
38:45This is the
38:47Devil's Eye.
38:49Of course, these signs are a debased form of art.
38:51Here, try the others.
38:53I think you'll find they all turn out differently.
38:55Well, anyway, we're gonna have to cover
38:57the whole area again.
38:59Well, I'll use men
39:01out of uniform around there.
39:03The trouble is, we still don't know
39:05what he looks like.
39:07We don't really know who we're looking for.
39:09He could even be
39:11a woman.
39:29Hmm.
39:59Tell me, what goes on in a place like this?
40:01It's not what goes on,
40:03it's what comes off.
40:05No, I mean, what does one do?
40:07First of all, you check
40:09that umbrella and that hat.
40:11Then you sit at a table
40:13and order a drink.
40:15Then you watch some attractive young lady's disrobe.
40:17What?
40:19You mean, in the altogether?
40:21Yes, in the altogether.
40:23Well, let's
40:25not delay a moment, old man.
40:29Let's go.
40:31♪
40:57Ladies and gentlemen,
40:59next,
41:01Beverly Hill, now give it up.
41:03Hey!
41:05♪
41:29♪
41:33Cigarette, John?
41:35No, thank you.
41:37But I believe we'll get him tonight.
41:39She's exactly the sort of woman
41:41who attracts the Ripper.
41:43♪
41:59♪
42:29♪
42:34♪
42:39♪
42:44♪
42:49♪
42:54♪
42:59♪
43:04♪
43:09♪
43:14♪
43:19♪
43:24♪
43:29♪
43:34♪
43:39That four men in the audience,
43:42several in the rooming house in the place above,
43:44he may show there, you know.
43:47More men outside.
43:49But it's as you said, you could look at him
43:51and still not know him.
43:52That's what we're up against.
43:53He'll have to do something, won't he,
43:55before we know he's even here.
43:57That's what we were waiting for
43:58when we staked out the other places.
44:01Perhaps one of us should go backstage
44:04and make sure this girl is all right.
44:05Yes, good idea.
44:06I'll do it, sir.
44:07You do?
44:08♪
44:13♪
44:18♪
44:23♪
44:28♪
44:33♪
44:38♪
44:43♪
44:48♪
44:53Well, what do you want?
44:55Are you all right?
44:57Well, of course I'm all right.
44:59Why shouldn't I be?
45:00To make sure, that's all.
45:02Well, now you've made sure.
45:04Yes.
45:07♪
45:12♪
45:17♪
45:22♪
45:25She all right?
45:26Oh, yes.
45:27I saw one of Captain Jago's men back there.
45:29Sir Guy, what will you do
45:31if the Ripper does get away with it again?
45:34Oh, I can't give up.
45:36I still don't understand why he goes on.
45:39What's his purpose?
45:40He goes on because he can't stop.
45:42If he stops, then he dies.
45:45He's a figure of evil.
45:48A vampire who fattens not on blood, but on life itself.
45:52Ghoul, nourished by death.
45:55Thirty years I've been after him,
45:57and it may end tonight in this place.
46:00If it doesn't,
46:01I'll probably turn everything I have over to Interpol
46:04and the authorities of whatever country he appears in.
46:07Perhaps I should have done that long ago.
46:10They're a pretty practical bunch.
46:12I'm afraid you'll have a hard time convincing them.
46:15If I convinced Captain Jago,
46:17I can convince anybody.
46:20You know, it's very close in here.
46:23Oh, it's awful.
46:24I suppose it's what they call atmosphere.
46:26Yes.
46:27Now, look.
46:29Why don't we go outside and get a breath of fresh air?
46:32An excellent idea. Come on.
46:56That's better.
46:57So be it.
47:18Oh.
47:20We've missed him, don't you think?
47:22Well, the knight's still young.
47:24He wouldn't be fool enough to show himself
47:26the places crawling with police.
47:28But does he know that?
47:29I'm sure he does.
47:32He'll get away all right.
47:34Tonight, perhaps.
47:35But now we know how he operates.
47:38It's only a matter of time.
47:41Have you got a match?
47:42I left my lighter on the table.
47:46That's a knife.
47:49I know.
47:52Oh, John!
48:10Not John.
48:13Not John.
48:16Jack.
