00:02:20Did you... Oh, boy. I know this is a bad time.
00:02:34But did you get a chance to mention anything about us before the accident?
00:02:38No, it happened before he could get home.
00:02:44Oh, who knows?
00:02:48Well... Well, I guess we'll just have to wait. Wait until he's well again.

00:03:02Oh, just fine. He's gonna be alright.
00:03:04How... How bad is it?
00:03:07Well, a large portion of his skull was damaged and had to be replaced with a metal plate.
00:03:12He's gonna live.
00:03:14He'll need some care for some time to come and a long rest after recovery.
00:03:19You look tired yourself. Why don't you get some rest?
00:03:31The doctor was right. It's hardly noticeable.
00:03:36You sure you don't want me to drive?
00:03:39No, I'll... I'll have to do it sooner or later.
00:03:42The doctor says this... This is supposed to be a vacation for you. No pressures at all, Clay.
00:03:47As a matter of fact, why don't we please stop at the next time? It's getting late. Alright?
00:04:17I'd like to stay here, wouldn't you, Clay? We're shopping for some antiques tomorrow.

00:06:49You did?
00:06:50Yeah.
00:06:51I don't remember turning him on.
00:06:52Oh, you didn't.
00:06:53Fespini did.
00:06:54He's just a harmless kid around town, you know.
00:06:56Not quite all there.
00:06:57Goes around to sundown.
00:06:58Turn the lights on.
00:06:59Figures he helps folks out that way.

00:08:11No, I was just thinking.
00:08:12About what?
00:08:15Those two people.
00:08:16Who?
00:08:17The Robertsons, the two I killed.
00:08:21It was an accident.
00:08:24Was it?

00:12:32The End
00:13:02The End
00:13:32The End
00:14:02The End
00:14:32The End
00:15:03What is it?
00:15:04What's the matter?
00:15:06My wife and Annie.
00:15:07They're gone.
00:15:10Do you hear me?
00:15:11Yeah, yeah, I hear, I hear.
00:15:14What do you mean they're gone?
00:15:16Just what I said.
00:15:17I woke up about an hour ago, I woke up about an hour ago, no one was around.
00:15:21I couldn't find either one of them.
00:15:23Oh, are there any number of places I can meet?
00:15:26Like where?
00:15:27Well, I don't know where.
00:15:28It would be in the city or be in the car, be in the city or, you know, a sale or something?
00:15:32The car's in the garage.
00:15:34Well, they could be at a neighbor's.
00:15:36I called around already, woke up a half a dozen people.
00:15:39Nothing.
00:15:40You didn't have a fight with them.
00:15:41You didn't have a fight with them, you didn't have a fight with them by any chance, did you?
00:15:43Well, you listen to me, and you start acting like a sheriff.
00:15:46They wouldn't go off just like that without letting me know.
00:15:50I'm telling you, something's happened to them.
00:15:53To my wife and Annie.
00:15:58Well, don't Annie mean anything to you anymore?
00:16:01I don't believe it.
00:16:03I know, I know, I don't believe it myself.
00:16:06I tell you, it seemed like it was actually happening.
00:16:10Sometimes dreams can be very real.
00:16:13Oh, I know, I know that, but this one, this one.
00:16:15This one, this one.
00:16:16You've accused me of a lot of things.
00:16:18You've never accused me of sleepwalking before.
00:16:20It's crazy, you and the rest of those people are being herded in trucks like a bunch of sheep.
00:16:26It's a while.
00:16:28Well, you've been through a terrible ordeal.
00:16:32You need some rest.
00:16:34Yeah.
00:16:37I'll tell you the truth, I don't know what I need.
00:16:41I mean, look at this.
00:16:43What?
00:16:44Look at this, why?
00:16:46Why is your dress thrown over this chair like that this morning?
00:16:49I mean, you're always so, so careful about hanging your clothes on.
00:16:55All right.
00:16:57But in your dream, why didn't you stop me from getting into the truck?
00:17:00I don't know, I don't know, it seemed like I, like I tried and then, then somebody, somebody knocked me down and, I don't know, it's all muddled up.
00:17:20It's all muddled up.
00:17:21Well, I know, if I woke up this morning, my head felt like a meatball.
00:17:27This girl that you said you saw, what did she look like?
00:17:30What did she look like?
00:17:43She was, uh, she was very beautiful.
00:17:50Good morning.
00:17:52Oh, I heard you up and moving about.
00:17:54Mrs. Crawford, that's very kind of you.
00:17:57So, Miss, Mrs. Crawford, how'd you sleep last night?
00:18:02Hey.
00:18:02Why, I slept just fine.
00:18:07I didn't sleep so well myself.
00:18:08A bunch of, uh, a bunch of trucks woke me up.
00:18:10They wake you up.
00:18:12No.
00:18:16Well, I want to tell you something.
00:18:17They were, they were out there.
00:18:18They were right out there.
00:18:19You were out there too, Mrs. Crawford.
00:18:20You were walking around without your cane.
00:18:22Hey.
00:18:24Is that right?
00:18:25That's right.
00:18:26Something else, Mrs. Crawford.
00:18:28I know something strange when we came to town yesterday.
00:18:29A lot of people seem to be having a nap.
00:18:31Mr. Hale at the gas station.
00:18:33Some, uh, some joker sleeping in the cafe.
00:18:35Even you said you were asleep when you answered the door.
00:18:38Don't you find all that a bit odd?
00:18:41No.
00:18:42It could be the sea air.
00:18:43It's the sea air.
00:18:45Clay?
00:18:46No, no, no.
00:18:47I'm not, I'm not talking about the sea air.
00:18:49Clay.
00:18:49Here, Mrs. Crawford, I'm not talking about the sea air.
00:18:51My husband is teasing.
00:18:53And, and, and I'm going to scold him as soon as we're by ourselves.
00:18:56I really am.
00:18:58He's not feeling very well.
00:18:59I understand.
00:19:01Well, you know, I got my son, Arthur.
00:19:03Goes to Berkeley.
00:19:04Has hair down the middle of his back.
00:19:06I understand.
00:19:08Well, uh, have a good day.
00:19:10Both of you.
00:19:13I know where this sounds crazy, but have I, have I ever been in this building before?
00:19:17No, Mr. Howard, to my knowledge, you've never been in this building before.
00:19:21Right.
00:19:21Not, not in here.
00:19:23No.
00:19:23Or, uh, or in there, right?
00:19:25No, no, certainly not in there.
00:19:26That's the...
00:19:27Yes, I know, that's, that's the cell block, isn't it?
00:19:29Yeah.
00:19:29I know this sounds like a amount of my skull, but I think I was in this building at about,
00:19:35about one o'clock this morning.
00:19:37There was nobody here.
00:19:38The, the lights were, were on and the doors were all open.
00:19:42Well, I'm sorry, uh, that certainly couldn't be, you see.
00:19:45I know.
00:19:46You, you admit I've never been in that cell block.
00:19:48Yeah, yeah.
00:19:50Okay, inside on the left, hanging on the wall, there's a plaque.
00:19:52It's some joker put up and it, it says home sweet home.
00:19:56And there are three cells.
00:19:58There's nobody in them and the doors are all open now.
00:20:02Tell me I'm wrong, Sheriff.
00:20:03Would you please tell me I'm wrong?
00:20:07What is it?
00:20:07Some kind of game?
00:20:08No, no game.
00:20:09I, I'd just like to have a look, okay?
00:20:13Well, why, sure.
00:20:18Take you on a tour of the jail?
00:20:31Hey, Sheriff.
00:20:34Is it time to get out?
00:20:36Now, how long you been in there?
00:20:39You know better than me.
00:20:40What time did you haul me out of that bar?
00:20:43I arrested him yesterday afternoon, drunk and disorderly.
00:20:46And he's been in that cell ever since.
00:20:47Yeah, he wasn't in that cell last night.
00:20:49He was out there with those trucks.
00:20:50He's the one who knocked me down.
00:20:51The one who put you in that truck.
00:20:52Are you folks planning on staying in town?
00:21:03No.
00:21:03Yes.
00:21:05Yes, she wanted to look for some antiques from her.
00:21:14Hey.
00:21:15You really want to stay here?
00:21:29I'm worried.
00:21:31Yeah, me too.
00:21:33Me too.
00:21:34$5,093.
00:21:54$5,093.
00:22:02Yeah, that's the one I'll write you're riding up here and back.
00:22:13These burrs.
00:22:20The same kind of burrs I found on your robe this morning.
00:22:23Burrs aren't proof, Clay.
00:22:25There's something, something wrong, something screwy going on in this town.
00:22:32If there was, wouldn't these people know about it?
00:22:34They do.
00:22:35Maybe they don't want us to know.
00:22:37Looking to buy it?
00:22:39Ah, no, no.
00:22:40No, not today, Mr. Hale.
00:22:42Hey, I notice it's, um, it's been over Mud Roads quite a bit.
00:22:46Mud Roads, yeah.
00:22:47Plenty of them around here.
00:22:49It belongs to a chicken farmer.
00:22:52You tell it real cheap.
00:22:53How have you been sleeping nights, Mr. Hale?
00:22:57Sleeping?
00:22:58Well, except for my back, I'm, I'm sleeping fine.
00:23:02How have you been sleeping?
00:23:05Oh, fine, fine.
00:23:07Except for a lot of racket in there.
00:23:12Thanks, Mr. Hale.
00:23:14Clay.
00:23:16Clay.
00:23:16I want to leave here right now.

00:34:39You'll understand.
00:34:42If you're not happy, then, um, I must be a dropout, too.
00:34:46You?
00:34:48Yes, I'm not happy either.
00:34:50The over ones have decreed that I'm not allowed to have a husband or children.
00:34:54Well, the, uh, uh...
00:34:58Well, you know, the over ones can't be very smart, then, can they?
00:35:02You know what?
00:35:09There should be a special place just...
00:35:12Just for dropouts.
00:35:16Oh, there is?
00:35:18There is.
00:35:19Yes, it's a beautiful place.
00:35:21Billions of miles from here.
00:35:23Millions of miles from where I live.
00:35:27Well, we should, we should go there right now.
00:35:29But I'm serious.
00:35:34I'm really serious.
00:35:35What do you do anymore, Madge?
00:35:44You've got to come up here.
00:35:46Yesterday, he promised that we leave today.
00:35:48Now he won't go.
00:35:49Maybe, maybe you can get through to him.
00:35:51All right, look.
00:35:52Can you hold on to Lamar and I?
00:35:53I can be there by then.
00:35:54All right, I'll manage somehow.
00:35:56Tomorrow evening.
00:35:58And I love you.
00:36:03Marge?
00:36:05Marge, you know that truck outside,
00:36:07the one with the for sale sign on it?
00:36:08Look, the speedometer shows
00:36:10eight more miles on it since yesterday.
00:36:12Huh?
00:36:13Eight more miles.
00:36:15Now, Nelio told me the truck's went up
00:36:16to a place a few miles outside of town.
00:36:18Don't you see?
00:36:20Don't you see?
00:36:20Four miles out, four miles back.
00:36:23Why, it's a truck.
00:36:24Somebody drove it.
00:36:25What does that prove?
00:36:26No, no, no.
00:36:26I talked to the gas station man, Mr. Hale.
00:36:28He said the truck hadn't moved
00:36:29from that spot in the last 24 hours.
00:36:30Here.
00:36:31Look at this.
00:36:38Noel and Nelio.
00:36:39What?
00:36:39The accident.
00:36:41The people in the other car.
00:36:43What were their names?
00:36:44Robertson.
00:36:45Leon and Lillian Robertson.
00:36:48Noel and Nelio.
00:36:50Spell it backwards.
00:36:51What?
00:36:52Spell it backwards.
00:36:53L-E-O-N.
00:36:57L-E-O-N, Leon.
00:37:03L-I-L-L-I-A-N.
00:37:08Lillian?
00:37:09Yes.
00:37:11Leon and Lillian?
00:37:14Now can we leave?
00:37:15Ma'am?
00:37:22I'd like to have a few words with you, Mr. Howard, if you don't mind.
00:37:25What about?
00:37:26Well, perhaps you can tell me.
00:37:29Howard, have you seen these two women before?
00:37:31No.
00:37:32How about you?
00:37:36Well, yes, I have.
00:37:37I, uh, I saw that one.
00:37:38When?
00:37:41Well, the first time was, uh, night before last, uh, she was sitting over there in that chair.
00:37:45And last night I, uh, spent a couple of hours with her out in the street.
00:37:48Her name's Nelio.
00:37:49Now, the night before last, you saw her in that chair right over there.
00:37:53That's right.
00:37:54And then last night, you saw her in the street.
00:37:56Yeah.
00:37:57Are you sure of that?
00:37:58Yeah, yeah, I'm sure of that.
00:37:59She, she showed up a couple of minutes after you and everybody else hopped into those trucks and cut out of town.
00:38:09And please don't, don't look at me as if you don't know what I'm talking about, would you?
00:38:14You know where she is now?
00:38:19Well, suppose I told you her name is Annie Fletcher.
00:38:23And she's been missing for 36 hours.
00:38:26What?
00:38:29I think you better hang around town a little while longer.
00:38:35I'll be here.
00:38:46Now you've done it.
00:38:48All right, now look, look, he asked me to stay around, not you.
00:38:51No reason for you to stay.
00:38:52Believe me, I would like to go, but I don't dare to leave you alone.
00:38:55Has it ever occurred to you to ask yourself if everybody in this town, including me, is under some mysterious spell that turns us into a pack of sheep each night?
00:39:05Why then aren't you affected?
00:39:07Where are you going?
00:39:15Out.
00:39:16You can't face the truth, can you?
00:39:17What have you say, Marge?
00:39:19I say it's time you did.
00:39:20All right, Marge, all right, let's talk about truth, shall we?
00:39:26Let's talk about truth.
00:39:28The truth is, and we both know it, if it hadn't been for that accident, we'd be sitting down with lawyers right now working out a settlement, right?
00:39:33Look, Marge, I know you're, I know you don't love me anymore, I know that.
00:39:39And what I feel about you right now, I really don't know either.
00:39:43Whatever it is, it's not love.
00:39:44Friendship maybe, habit, I don't know.
00:39:47But I'm not in love with you anymore.
00:39:50Let's face it, Marge, it's over for both of us, no matter what the reasons.
00:39:53You think I, I don't know about your relationship with Matt, hmm?
00:40:01You think I don't know about that?
00:40:04You think I don't understand why?
00:40:08It's true.
00:40:10Everything you said about us.
00:40:17I wanted to tell you what was happening.
00:40:20I was going to tell you the day the accident happened.
00:40:22And after you got hurt, everything got complicated.
00:40:30Until this mess is cleared up, Clay, I can't.
00:40:34I mean, I'm not going to leave you.
00:40:38Not while you're still sick.
00:40:41No, Marge, no.
00:40:44I am not sick.
00:40:49A steel plate in my head, maybe.
00:40:51But I'm as sane as you or any three other people you want to pick out.
00:40:56What I say may sound just a little wacky to everybody, but it's because nobody wants to believe me.
00:41:01Well, you don't have to worry about it anymore because, uh, I'm not going to try and prove anything.
00:41:07Because I really just couldn't care less anymore.
00:41:09So I'm just going to, I'm just going to sit back.
00:41:11I'm just going to let it all happen.
00:41:14I'm just going to let it all happen.
00:41:17I'm just going to let it all happen.
00:41:19I'll let it all happen.
00:41:20I don't know.
00:41:50I'd say she'd been dead about, oh, 36 hours.
00:42:00A couple of abrasions on the side of her face.
00:42:02What does that mean?
00:42:03It means the coroner will have to determine the cause of death.
00:42:07So, was she hit her, wasn't she?
00:42:08I said, I don't know.
00:42:10She put it in.
00:42:12Take it out.
00:42:13Maybe she was.
00:42:16You said you found her at the foot of an embankment.
00:42:19Right?
00:42:20Well, maybe she fell and hit her head.
00:42:22What are you saying?
00:42:24I'm saying that the coroner will have to determine the cause of death.
00:42:27Not me.
00:42:29And not you.
00:42:32I know how you feel, Fletch.
00:42:33And I know you're worried about Annie.
00:42:35But there's nothing here that says that anybody committed a crime.
00:42:38So don't go off half-cocked.
00:42:42Thank you, Doc.
00:42:47You coming, Fletch?
00:42:49Fletch?
00:43:00Fletcher, I'm not going to lock that Howard guy up.
00:43:03Why not?
00:43:04Like the doc said, there's no crime until the coroner says it.
00:43:07What?
00:43:07Then haul him in on suspicion.
00:43:09Once we get him alone...
00:43:09Now, Fletcher.
00:43:11Todd, I ain't waiting around for you to do something.
00:43:14Now, listen.
00:43:16You take it easy.
00:43:17Now, Deputy Spencer's got his eye on him right now.
00:43:20Howard says he saw Annie last night.
00:43:22Now, I'm going to be parked right outside his door watching him tonight.
00:43:24If he sees her again, I'll be right with him.
00:43:28Now, you take it easy.
00:43:29Go on, get lost.
00:43:41Go on, get lost.
00:43:41Go on, get lost.
00:44:11Go on, get lost.
00:44:41Go on, get lost.
00:45:11Go on, get lost.
00:45:41Go on, get lost.
00:46:11Go on, get lost.
00:46:13Go on, get lost.
00:46:14Go on, get lost.
00:46:15Go on, get lost.
00:46:16Go on, get lost.
00:46:17Go on, get lost.
00:46:18Go on, get lost.
00:46:19Go on, get lost.
00:46:20Go on, get lost.
00:46:21Go on, get lost.
00:46:22Go on, get lost.
00:46:23Go on, get lost.
00:46:24Go on, get lost.
00:46:25Go on, get lost.
00:46:26Go on, get lost.
00:46:27Go on, get lost.
00:46:28Go on, get lost.
00:46:29Go on, get lost.
00:46:30Go on, get lost.
00:46:31Go on, get lost.
00:47:02What is that thing?
00:47:11You'll find her.
00:47:13Come with me.
00:47:32Would you please tell me what is going on here?
00:47:42I missed you.
00:47:44I really missed you.
00:47:46You are real.
00:48:10I was beginning to think the whole world had gone mad.
00:48:16I was even at the point where I thought I'd imagined it all.
00:48:20I'd imagined you, but I didn't.
00:48:24Why did I die?
00:48:26Because you loved me.
00:48:31Yes, I suppose.
00:48:35I suppose because I love you.
00:48:37I want to see you, Mr. Howard.
00:48:55It's Noel.
00:48:56Good evening, Mr. Howard.
00:49:20Or should I say good morning?
00:49:24You?
00:49:26My name is Noel.
00:49:27I'm using this simply as a convenience to talk to you.
00:49:32Frankly, I find it cumbersome, time-consuming, and not a little disgusting.
00:49:36You've caused me quite a bit of annoyance, Mr. Howard.
00:49:42You've become a problem.
00:49:43I've allowed you to come here now in the hope that you'll listen to reason.
00:49:48Come with me.
00:49:49Please.
00:49:58All right.
00:50:07You saw a ship out there.
00:50:09It suffered massive internal damage while in flight.
00:50:12We were forced to land here.
00:50:14I'm using these people to help me.
00:50:15I can't accomplish the repairs alone.
00:50:17So I steal four hours from them each night.
00:50:20One moment.
00:50:47You do all that with your mind.
00:50:51And the aid of the machine.
00:50:52They're needed elsewhere.
00:50:55Unfortunately, I've not been able to direct you.
00:50:58Why me?
00:50:59What makes me different?
00:51:02A piece of metal you have.
00:51:03Here.
00:51:04It interfered with our communications.
00:51:06Metal plate.
00:51:07That's right.
00:51:09And that's the reason for using the names Noel and Nelil.
00:51:12We used your auto accident victims to discredit you.
00:51:15As anticipated, your wife merely assumed them to be apparitions brought on by your own feeling of guilt.
00:51:21The laws of my world prevent my hurting you unless absolutely necessary.
00:51:25I ask you reasonably, stop trying to make others aware of our presence.
00:51:31And tell my technician that you'll have nothing more to do with her.
00:51:35Don't you realize?
00:51:37She's not like you.
00:51:41Like myself, she's taken on a shell.
00:51:44We're a psychokinetic race, almost pure mind.
00:51:48Nelil is the same.
00:51:50In order for you to be like us, you'd have to give up that shell that you're now in.
00:51:53I can't allow that.
00:51:57Will you renounce her?
00:52:01If you do, I'll hate you with all the fury of a human being.
00:52:06And there's no hate so severe in the whole universe.
00:52:15There's your answer.
00:52:16No.
00:52:17When we go, let him come with us.
00:52:20No.
00:52:23I'd hope to avoid further unpleasantness.
00:52:28We're going to place you in protective custody until the night's work is done.
00:52:31I'm sorry you won't listen to reason.
00:52:40You didn't have to do that.
00:52:42He could come with us if you'd let him.
00:52:44You're being cruel.
00:52:47Get back to work.
00:52:50Go back to work.
00:52:51Hold it.
00:53:13Hold it.
00:53:15Hold it right there.
00:53:18Hold it right there.
00:53:19Where are you coming from?
00:53:21How'd you get out of here without me seeing you?
00:53:25Sheriff, if I told you, you wouldn't believe me.
00:53:30Oh, I wouldn't, huh?
00:53:31You'll just come along with me now, will you?
00:53:34Thanks.
00:53:34And we'll just find out what I'm going to believe.
00:53:38What?
00:53:38Are you arresting me, Sheriff?
00:53:39You might call it that.
00:53:42You're a suspect.
00:53:43And mind you, I said suspect in the disappearance and possible homicide of persons known as Rose Fletcher and her daughter, Ann Fletcher.
00:53:52Why did you kill Mrs. Fletcher?
00:53:54I told you for the 10th time.
00:53:55And 20 more if necessary.
00:53:57Why did you kill her?
00:53:58I didn't kill her.
00:53:59What do you want, man?
00:54:03All right.
00:54:04All right.
00:54:04Look, I confess.
00:54:05I did it.
00:54:09I did it.
00:54:09I couldn't help myself.
00:54:10I went bananas, see?
00:54:13There's a full moon.
00:54:14I saw this girl.
00:54:16I thought it was a vampire.
00:54:18I saw her.
00:54:18All right.
00:54:19No, we cut that out, wise guy.
00:54:21Okay.
00:54:21Now you start telling me the proof.
00:54:28What do you know about Rose Fletcher's death?
00:54:31I don't know anything.
00:54:35Look, she could have fallen off a truck.
00:54:37She could have hit her head.
00:54:41Sheriff, did it ever occur to you to go out to that place I've been telling you about?
00:54:45Go out there and look for yourself.
00:54:49I see you.
00:54:50I see you.
00:54:52No, I would make sure you didn't see anything anyway.
00:54:58Spencer, you go on out to those meadows and take a look around.
00:55:02Go up to Cunningham's Chicken Farm.
00:55:04Check out that whole area.
00:55:06Are you serious, Sheriff?
00:55:08Yeah, I'm serious.
00:55:10And don't slough it off.
00:55:11Do it carefully.
00:55:20You lock up that Howard guy?
00:55:35Yeah.
00:55:36Better believe it.
00:55:37He sure tells a pretty wild story.
00:55:39Uh, but don't worry, Mr. Fletcher.
00:55:42He'd tell you what he did to Miami.
00:55:44Uh-huh.
00:55:47Try to keep cool if you can.
00:55:48Heldrard Police Station.
00:56:16Sheriff Henshaw?
00:56:17Yeah, Henshaw speaking.
00:56:18This is the coroner's office.
00:56:19Yes, sir.
00:56:20I have the coroner.
00:56:21I'm getting Mrs. Fletcher.
00:56:24Fletcher?
00:56:25Fletcher?
00:56:26Come here.
00:56:27I just talked with the coroner.
00:56:35He says if your wife died from a cardiac arrest, that's a heart attack.
00:56:40That means that she was dead before she went over the embankment.
00:56:44Which means that Howard is clean so far.
00:56:49You been letting go?
00:56:50No, no, not yet.
00:56:55Well, what are you doing?
00:56:55Playing pinochle with him?
00:56:56Oh, now, come on.
00:56:57Fletcher, I'm just as worried about your wife and Annie as you are.
00:57:00If you are, Sheriff, you just let Howard go.
00:57:03We'll make him tell us what happened to her.
00:57:04You tell him, Jeff.
00:57:05Yeah, send him on out, Sheriff.
00:57:06We'll blast him off.
00:57:07That was all you saw, Fespini.
00:57:24And a chicken.
00:57:28I don't see how so many people could be so quiet.
00:57:34Yeah.
00:57:37I don't see how so many people could be so quiet.
00:58:07What's going on?
00:58:23What are all those people doing out there?
00:58:24They're after me.
00:58:25What?
00:58:25This lady's husband has been acting a little peculiar.
00:58:28He's got a lot of the folks riled up against him.
00:58:30I'm Matt Russell and I represent Mr. Howard.
00:58:32Now, has he done anything wrong?
00:58:33Probably not.
00:58:34I'm going to get the highway patrol down here.
00:58:40That's what you should have done before things went this far.
00:58:43Hello?
00:58:51Hello?
00:58:55Hello?
00:58:59The phone is dead.
00:59:02He's dead.
00:59:19Klai!
00:59:31Klai!
00:59:33Klai!
00:59:35Klai!
00:59:41The repairs are almost finished.
00:59:43The ship leaves in the morning.
00:59:45I've run away.
00:59:47He's looking for me as soon as he finds I'm gone.
00:59:49If he catches me, he'll force me to return with him.
00:59:52He's not gonna catch you or me.
00:59:54We're gonna get out of here right now.
00:59:55No, listen.
00:59:56You must listen.
00:59:57If we are separated, beam the meadow where the ship is by 5.30 and I'll beam you up.
01:00:02Right, right, right.
01:00:03Once you're on the ship, Noah won't be able to send you back.
01:00:05He won't be able to do anything to you.
01:00:07Now listen to me, wait, look.
01:00:08You listen.
01:00:09No one's going to do anything to either one of us.
01:00:11We're going outside, get in my car and get out of this town together.
01:00:14No one's ever gonna separate us again, I promise you.
01:00:17Come on.
01:00:47Oh, my God.
01:01:17Oh, my God.
01:01:47I'm sorry you were subjected to all of this.
01:01:56It was unfortunate, but after tonight, you will have seen the last of us.
01:02:00You'll be returned to your cell, and sometime after dawn, your fellow humans will awaken.
01:02:07Goodbye, Mr. Howard.
01:02:08Goodbye, Mr. Howard.
01:02:38Hey, come on.
01:02:42Come on, fellas.
01:02:45How about it, huh?
01:02:46Do we let me out or don't we?
01:02:52Oh, hiya, Sheriff.
01:02:53How are you feeling?
01:02:57Oh, fine.
01:02:58I really feel fine.
01:03:00I had a good night's sleep.
01:03:01Good night's sleep, right?
01:03:03That's right.
01:03:03Good morning.
01:03:29Look, I know I've got a lot to apologize for.
01:03:39I know I've been acting kind of strange.
01:03:46Most of what I've said or done, I can't remember, but I'm all right now.
01:03:53Believe me, I'm all right.
01:03:55I think it's time he went home, Tom.
01:03:57I got back to work.
01:03:58Oh, glad.
01:03:59I'm so glad.
