1
00:00:04,799 --> 00:00:09,000
Speaker 1: Count down for blast off X minus five minus four

2
00:00:09,679 --> 00:00:21,640
minus three minus two x minus one. Fire from the

3
00:00:21,719 --> 00:00:25,239
far horizons of the unknown come transcribe tales of new

4
00:00:25,280 --> 00:00:29,199
dimensions in time and space. These are stories of the

5
00:00:29,239 --> 00:00:32,479
future adventures in which you'll live in A million could

6
00:00:32,479 --> 00:00:34,840
be years, on a thousand would be worlds.

7
00:00:35,159 --> 00:00:37,560
Speaker 2: The National Broadcasting Company presents.

8
00:00:37,640 --> 00:00:54,520
Speaker 1: X minus one tonight, the science fiction classic Knock by

9
00:00:54,600 --> 00:01:07,159
Frederick Brown. The night We have a strange story to tell,

10
00:01:07,799 --> 00:01:11,159
A sweet, blood curdling little story that is really only

11
00:01:11,239 --> 00:01:16,159
two sentences long. The last man on Earth sat alone

12
00:01:16,159 --> 00:01:19,480
in a room. There was a knock at the door.

13
00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:25,799
Speaker 3: M what's that?

14
00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:36,840
Speaker 4: Good morning? Man?

15
00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:37,480
Speaker 5: What?

16
00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:40,680
Speaker 3: Who are you?

17
00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:42,439
Speaker 4: You have gained consciousness?

18
00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:46,079
Speaker 3: Who are you? I am zen, I'm still asleep. I

19
00:01:46,159 --> 00:01:46,560
must speak.

20
00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:47,840
Speaker 4: You are not asleep.

21
00:01:47,920 --> 00:01:49,680
Speaker 3: Maybe if I close my eyes it will go away.

22
00:01:49,760 --> 00:01:51,359
Speaker 4: I will not go away. Man.

23
00:01:52,280 --> 00:01:57,319
Speaker 3: H I guess I'm awake. Who what are you? I

24
00:01:57,359 --> 00:01:59,120
am a what's that?

25
00:02:00,159 --> 00:02:01,040
Speaker 4: Intelligent life?

26
00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:03,560
Speaker 3: I don't know what happened? Where are you from?

27
00:02:03,599 --> 00:02:06,079
Speaker 6: From Planet seven in the third Galaxy in the fourth

28
00:02:06,159 --> 00:02:09,800
quadrant where it is not necessary to repeat information which

29
00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:11,479
is correct in the original.

30
00:02:11,039 --> 00:02:14,560
Speaker 3: Statement, Planet seven. But you mean I'm not on Earth.

31
00:02:14,599 --> 00:02:16,120
Speaker 4: You are still on your planet.

32
00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:17,919
Speaker 3: What are you doing here?

33
00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:20,400
Speaker 4: The Zans have annexed your world.

34
00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:23,520
Speaker 3: You mean you've conquered Earth.

35
00:02:23,639 --> 00:02:27,080
Speaker 6: Yes, that is correct. We will now prepare your planet

36
00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:28,439
for habitation by the Zan.

37
00:02:28,719 --> 00:02:31,919
Speaker 3: How about the people? What about the population of the world.

38
00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:34,879
Speaker 4: You are the population of the world.

39
00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:41,199
Speaker 3: Now wait a minute, I can't I don't understand what's happened.

40
00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:43,000
Speaker 4: The Zan have landed on your planet.

41
00:02:43,159 --> 00:02:46,840
Speaker 6: We have removed the lower life forms to prepare for colonization.

42
00:02:46,319 --> 00:02:46,840
Speaker 4: By the Zan.

43
00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:49,000
Speaker 3: When did all this happen two days ago?

44
00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:51,960
Speaker 4: You have been unconscious until now?

45
00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:55,240
Speaker 3: You really mean I'm the last man on Earth?

46
00:02:55,400 --> 00:02:56,280
Speaker 4: That is correct.

47
00:02:56,960 --> 00:03:00,759
Speaker 6: Identify yourself now, what kindly provide data as to your

48
00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:03,360
position in the elementary social order of your planet?

49
00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:09,159
Speaker 3: Oh? I'm a Walter pheelan associate professor of anthropology at

50
00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:12,360
Nathan University. How do you speak English?

51
00:03:12,439 --> 00:03:15,280
Speaker 6: We have deciphered your written and recorded records. It is

52
00:03:15,319 --> 00:03:18,360
not difficult to reconstruct your language. It is a primary

53
00:03:18,439 --> 00:03:23,120
type of auditory communication. Oh, is there anything you want

54
00:03:23,159 --> 00:03:24,879
to complete your natural habitat?

55
00:03:25,159 --> 00:03:27,120
Speaker 3: You mean I'm a prisoner, that is correct.

56
00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:29,840
Speaker 4: What would you want further in your room?

57
00:03:30,159 --> 00:03:32,639
Speaker 3: Do I have to stay here. Yes, the rest of

58
00:03:32,639 --> 00:03:36,080
my life forever. You better bring me my books.

59
00:03:36,479 --> 00:03:37,400
Speaker 4: There will be done.

60
00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:40,800
Speaker 3: That's rather considerate of you. You know. I've got to

61
00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:42,520
call you something. Do you mind if I call you George?

62
00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:46,599
Speaker 6: It is immateial. I will be back, Associate Professor of anthropology.

63
00:03:46,639 --> 00:03:50,240
Speaker 3: Oh, that's all right, George. Just call me water very well, Walter.

64
00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:53,719
Speaker 4: I will be back with your books.

65
00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:55,719
Speaker 3: All right, George. I'll be seeing you around.

66
00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:58,719
Speaker 4: You will not be around, Walter. You will be here.

67
00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:21,759
Speaker 3: And then hello, George, Hello Walter. Wait a minute, you're

68
00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:23,319
not George. You're a different somehow.

69
00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:27,079
Speaker 6: It makes no difference. The sun are many and they

70
00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:27,560
are one.

71
00:04:28,199 --> 00:04:30,720
Speaker 3: Then I'll call you George. Two, I'll call you all George.

72
00:04:30,879 --> 00:04:31,680
What can I do for you?

73
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:35,519
Speaker 4: Point one? You will please henceforth sit with your chair

74
00:04:35,639 --> 00:04:36,800
facing the other way.

75
00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:40,199
Speaker 3: Ah. I thought, so, George, that plain wall is different

76
00:04:40,199 --> 00:04:41,480
from the other side, isn't it?

77
00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:42,360
Speaker 4: That is correct?

78
00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:46,439
Speaker 3: It is transparent, That's what I thought. I'm in a zoo, right,

79
00:04:46,639 --> 00:04:49,360
that is correct. How many other animals do you have

80
00:04:49,399 --> 00:04:50,279
in the zoo? George?

81
00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:51,759
Speaker 4: Two hundred and sixteen?

82
00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:55,959
Speaker 3: Not complete, George. Even a bush league zoo could beat that.

83
00:04:56,439 --> 00:04:58,000
Did you just pick at random.

84
00:04:58,120 --> 00:05:02,079
Speaker 6: Yes, all species would have been too many male and

85
00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:04,040
female each of one hundred.

86
00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:08,879
Speaker 3: Eight kinds male and female. Of all the animals, there.

87
00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:10,720
Speaker 4: Is a female of your species among.

88
00:05:10,519 --> 00:05:14,800
Speaker 3: The collection, anyone I know? Never mind, it doesn't matter anyway. Well,

89
00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:16,439
what do you feed us, Allee?

90
00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:19,120
Speaker 4: For carnivorous species, we make synthetics.

91
00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:22,839
Speaker 6: Flora was not hurt by the vibrations which destroyed animal life.

92
00:05:22,879 --> 00:05:26,160
Speaker 3: Oh nice for the flora. Well, George, you started out

93
00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:28,759
with point one. I deduced there is a point two

94
00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:31,959
kicking around somewhere. What is it?

95
00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:36,439
Speaker 6: Something we do not understand. Two of the other animals

96
00:05:36,439 --> 00:05:39,480
sleep and do not wake. They are cold.

97
00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:42,680
Speaker 3: Don't worry, George, it happens in the best regulated zoos.

98
00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:44,600
Speaker 4: What is wrong with them, Walter?

99
00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:47,360
Speaker 3: Nothing much. They're just dead.

100
00:05:48,639 --> 00:05:52,560
Speaker 4: That means stopped. But nothing stopped them. Each was alone.

101
00:05:52,759 --> 00:05:54,839
Speaker 3: Maybe they just died of old age.

102
00:05:54,759 --> 00:05:57,240
Speaker 4: Old age, I do not understand.

103
00:05:57,439 --> 00:06:00,000
Speaker 3: You don't. How old are you, George?

104
00:06:00,399 --> 00:06:03,319
Speaker 6: Your planet went around the Sun about seven thousand times

105
00:06:03,319 --> 00:06:03,959
since I was.

106
00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:07,600
Speaker 3: Born seven thousand years Yes, I am still young. Yeah,

107
00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:11,439
babing arms. Look, George, you've got something to learn about

108
00:06:11,439 --> 00:06:14,360
this planet you've hijacked. Here on Earth, We've got somebody.

109
00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:17,120
You don't know where you come from, an old man

110
00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:19,360
with a beard and an hour glass and a scythe

111
00:06:20,199 --> 00:06:21,920
Your vibrations didn't kill him?

112
00:06:22,319 --> 00:06:22,879
Speaker 4: What is he?

113
00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:26,600
Speaker 3: Oh? Old man? Death? Down here are people and animals

114
00:06:26,639 --> 00:06:29,920
live until somebody, the grim reaper stops them.

115
00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:32,399
Speaker 4: He will stop more he gets us.

116
00:06:32,399 --> 00:06:34,920
Speaker 3: Old George, with your life span, it won't seem like

117
00:06:34,959 --> 00:06:38,519
a minute and will all be gone. Looks like he

118
00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:41,000
made a mistake, George, and I don't think as much

119
00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:41,759
he can do about it.

120
00:06:41,879 --> 00:06:45,319
Speaker 6: That is not correct. The sand is a logical being.

121
00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:47,040
We will take action.

122
00:06:58,600 --> 00:06:59,959
Speaker 3: Oh George, where are you taking me?

123
00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:03,079
Speaker 4: We will be there shortly. We will bring your books

124
00:07:03,199 --> 00:07:03,920
and your chair.

125
00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:05,120
Speaker 3: You mean my lease is up?

126
00:07:05,759 --> 00:07:06,879
Speaker 4: I do not understand.

127
00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:09,240
Speaker 3: It's moving day and is correct.

128
00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:13,920
Speaker 4: We are here now. You will live here now, Walter.

129
00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:15,639
It is a larger room.

130
00:07:15,959 --> 00:07:18,199
Speaker 3: Well be it ever so humble. There's no place like

131
00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:22,000
home inside. Oh, be careful with those books, George, don't

132
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:25,439
lose my excuse me?

133
00:07:26,279 --> 00:07:30,120
Speaker 5: Who are you? What are you doing here?

134
00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:33,720
Speaker 3: I guess George didn't explain that. George tries to be polite,

135
00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:36,519
but he hasn't quite caught on yet. I'm Walter feeling.

136
00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:40,160
Speaker 5: My name is Gray Evans, mister feelin. What's all this about?

137
00:07:40,199 --> 00:07:41,160
Why did they bring me here?

138
00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:44,040
Speaker 3: I think I know why? But let's go back a bit.

139
00:07:44,079 --> 00:07:45,800
Do you know just what has happened otherwise?

140
00:07:46,199 --> 00:07:47,160
Speaker 5: No, not exactly.

141
00:07:47,879 --> 00:07:49,600
Speaker 3: Well, I've been talking to George.

142
00:07:49,639 --> 00:07:50,040
Speaker 5: George.

143
00:07:50,279 --> 00:07:52,000
Speaker 3: Well that's what I call them, all of them. There's

144
00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:54,480
no way to tell them apart anyway. There aren't many

145
00:07:54,480 --> 00:07:57,560
of them here yet. They come from outside the Solar system,

146
00:07:57,600 --> 00:07:59,759
sort of an advanced scouting party.

147
00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:01,879
Speaker 5: There's spaceship. It's as big as a mountain.

148
00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:04,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, they're moving in on us. They cleaned off the

149
00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:07,199
earth with some kind of vibration that destroys all sorts

150
00:08:07,199 --> 00:08:09,439
of animal life. I don't know whether they did it

151
00:08:09,439 --> 00:08:10,839
all at once, or if they had to circle the

152
00:08:10,879 --> 00:08:13,439
earth a few times, but they killed everybody.

153
00:08:13,879 --> 00:08:15,519
Speaker 5: No, I was afraid.

154
00:08:15,639 --> 00:08:17,920
Speaker 3: The cheerful note is that you and I and two

155
00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:21,720
hundred odd other animals were picked up beforehand as specimens

156
00:08:21,720 --> 00:08:23,959
for the zoo. You do know this is a zoo,

157
00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:24,360
don't you.

158
00:08:24,639 --> 00:08:27,839
Speaker 5: I suspected it, but I don't remember anything about being captured.

159
00:08:27,839 --> 00:08:28,720
I just woke up here.

160
00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:31,439
Speaker 3: My hunch is they used the vibrations just low enough

161
00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:34,039
to knock us all out, and then they cruised around

162
00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:36,759
picking up samples at random. When they were all set,

163
00:08:36,799 --> 00:08:38,840
they turned the juice on full blast.

164
00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:39,759
Speaker 5: Not terrible.

165
00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:44,519
Speaker 3: Well, they solved a lot of problems for us, housing, shortage, wars,

166
00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:48,279
even the atomic bomb. I don't suppose the human race

167
00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:51,559
you and I have to worry about anything now.

168
00:08:51,759 --> 00:08:52,440
Speaker 5: It's awful.

169
00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:56,960
Speaker 3: Only they made a mistake. They underestimated us.

170
00:08:57,200 --> 00:08:58,080
Speaker 5: I don't understand.

171
00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:02,440
Speaker 3: They thought we were immortal, that we were what immortal

172
00:09:02,679 --> 00:09:05,600
like they are? Oh, they can be killed, but the

173
00:09:05,720 --> 00:09:08,919
Zans don't know what natural death is. They didn't know

174
00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:12,320
anyway until they lost two of us yesterday.

175
00:09:12,799 --> 00:09:14,879
Speaker 5: You mean there are more than two of us?

176
00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:18,000
Speaker 3: Oh, not more of us species? Not, These were merely

177
00:09:18,039 --> 00:09:21,720
fellow animals are rabbit, the canary, and by the Zan's

178
00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:23,559
way of figuring time, the rest of us are only

179
00:09:23,559 --> 00:09:26,559
good for a few minutes apiece. It's the joke on them.

180
00:09:26,759 --> 00:09:29,480
They figured they had permanent specimens here in the zoo.

181
00:09:29,519 --> 00:09:31,519
Speaker 5: Didn't they even know we'd all die eventually?

182
00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:35,320
Speaker 3: I don't think so, George. That is the second Zan

183
00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:38,360
I saw told me he was seven thousand years old,

184
00:09:38,399 --> 00:09:41,240
and he's young by their standards. When they learned how

185
00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:44,759
quickly we die, they were practically shocked to the core.

186
00:09:45,440 --> 00:09:47,519
If they have cores, how.

187
00:09:47,399 --> 00:09:48,919
Speaker 5: Can you talk that way about it?

188
00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:53,039
Speaker 3: Academic detachment? I learned it at Faculty Tea's. At any rate,

189
00:09:53,039 --> 00:09:56,480
they've decided to reorganize their zoo two by two?

190
00:09:57,120 --> 00:09:58,720
Speaker 5: Are they going to keep us locked up together in

191
00:09:58,759 --> 00:09:59,960
his one little room?

192
00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:02,480
Speaker 3: Right? So there's plenty of furniture though, and George promised

193
00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:03,360
to bring me my chair.

194
00:10:04,159 --> 00:10:05,360
Speaker 5: We've got to do something.

195
00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:06,600
Speaker 3: Why, well, I don't know.

196
00:10:06,639 --> 00:10:08,519
Speaker 5: It just just seems to me we ought to the

197
00:10:08,600 --> 00:10:10,080
human race to do something.

198
00:10:11,399 --> 00:10:13,200
Speaker 3: Perhaps you have a suggestion there must be.

199
00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:14,799
Speaker 5: Some way they can be killed.

200
00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:18,600
Speaker 3: You said, oh, yes, sir, I've been studying them. They

201
00:10:18,639 --> 00:10:21,279
look horribly different, but I think they have about the

202
00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:24,399
same metabolic and digestive system as we. I think that

203
00:10:24,440 --> 00:10:26,480
anything that would kill one of us would kill one of.

204
00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:28,320
Speaker 5: Them, which you said seven thousand years.

205
00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:31,519
Speaker 3: I think I figured it out now. George cut his

206
00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:34,399
uh why I suppose you'd call it his hand when

207
00:10:34,399 --> 00:10:37,360
he brought in my books started to bleed red blood,

208
00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:40,559
but I could see the cut closing as he stood there.

209
00:10:40,559 --> 00:10:41,960
By the time he left, it was healed.

210
00:10:42,039 --> 00:10:42,879
Speaker 5: I don't understand.

211
00:10:43,120 --> 00:10:46,360
Speaker 3: You see, whatever factor there is in man that makes

212
00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:50,279
him grow old is missing in the zan. Their regenerative

213
00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:52,960
powers must be unlimited. They just don't wear out. They

214
00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:54,519
go on and on until they're stopped.

215
00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:57,039
Speaker 5: Suppose we killed one. There must be some way.

216
00:10:57,960 --> 00:11:00,639
Speaker 3: What would be the use? They wouldn't even They just

217
00:11:00,639 --> 00:11:02,200
give us our food through a trap door and put

218
00:11:02,240 --> 00:11:04,879
up a sign saying beware of the man dangerous.

219
00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:07,080
Speaker 5: I don't think they'll even have to bother in your case,

220
00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:09,240
I don't see anything funny.

221
00:11:09,279 --> 00:11:12,200
Speaker 3: I'm sorry. Just reminds me of Martha, Martha, my wife,

222
00:11:12,440 --> 00:11:13,639
she died two years ago.

223
00:11:14,039 --> 00:11:15,519
Speaker 5: I'm sorry, not at all.

224
00:11:15,519 --> 00:11:19,080
Speaker 3: It was a pleasure. That'll be George with my books.

225
00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:22,320
Come in, Oh, George, Hello.

226
00:11:22,120 --> 00:11:25,080
Speaker 4: Walter, point one, I have brought your books.

227
00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:28,240
Speaker 3: Point one? What else is on your mind?

228
00:11:28,279 --> 00:11:31,279
Speaker 6: Another creature sleeps and will not wake, A small feathered

229
00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:32,480
one called a duck.

230
00:11:32,799 --> 00:11:35,440
Speaker 3: It happens, George. I warned you, old man death, the

231
00:11:35,440 --> 00:11:37,240
grim Reaper. I told you about him, Walter.

232
00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:38,799
Speaker 4: The Council of san has met.

233
00:11:39,159 --> 00:11:42,279
Speaker 6: It has been decided logically that a no life form

234
00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:45,080
can withstand the full strength vibrations with which we cleared

235
00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:48,039
your planet. Therefore, the grim reaper you spoke out does

236
00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:48,600
not exist.

237
00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:50,799
Speaker 3: Pretty neat, George, what's b be?

238
00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:55,120
Speaker 6: The only intelligent life to escape the vibrations is you. Therefore,

239
00:11:55,320 --> 00:11:58,440
the logical conclusion is you are stopping these animals by

240
00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:00,320
some means unknown to us.

241
00:12:00,320 --> 00:12:02,039
Speaker 3: George, you are off your trolley.

242
00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:05,000
Speaker 4: You will tell me now how this is done.

243
00:12:06,279 --> 00:12:08,000
Speaker 3: You've got me, yes, we have.

244
00:12:08,759 --> 00:12:11,440
Speaker 6: It is necessary to save the remaining specimens as long

245
00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:14,279
as possible. If we do not get the information, we

246
00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:16,720
may be forced to dispense with your species entirely.

247
00:12:17,360 --> 00:12:19,679
Speaker 4: This means you, Walter, and the female.

248
00:12:19,759 --> 00:12:21,639
Speaker 3: Oh hold on, George, don't go off half cocked.

249
00:12:22,279 --> 00:12:22,399
Speaker 4: Uh.

250
00:12:22,799 --> 00:12:24,200
Speaker 3: Let me take a look at these animals. It won't

251
00:12:24,200 --> 00:12:24,600
wake up.

252
00:12:24,960 --> 00:12:28,039
Speaker 4: I will take you there. Now go first, Walter.

253
00:12:30,279 --> 00:12:38,080
Speaker 3: After you, My dear George.

254
00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:41,320
Speaker 4: This is the weasel.

255
00:12:41,799 --> 00:12:43,600
Speaker 3: Now you should have got him in the winter, George.

256
00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:45,960
The fur is worth more than it's ermine.

257
00:12:46,399 --> 00:12:54,200
Speaker 6: This is the reptile cage. Here are the ducks. That

258
00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:57,080
is the male. The female has been stopped.

259
00:12:57,279 --> 00:13:00,159
Speaker 3: Lucky girl. It's a matter fella lonely.

260
00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:03,320
Speaker 4: Hm, Walter, you will tell me how you stop the

261
00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:04,000
female duck.

262
00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:06,000
Speaker 3: You got me, George, I didn't do it. Maybe she

263
00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:07,320
died of the Dutch elm blight.

264
00:13:07,519 --> 00:13:10,919
Speaker 6: Walter, you are not being logical. We have concluded you

265
00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:14,240
are stopping these animals. Tell us know how it is done.

266
00:13:14,279 --> 00:13:16,279
Speaker 3: I've told you, George, I haven't the foggiest notion.

267
00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:18,720
Speaker 4: Very well, we will have to take further action.

268
00:13:18,799 --> 00:13:20,080
Speaker 3: Oh what are you going to do? George?

269
00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:29,279
Speaker 4: We will go back now to your room.

270
00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:32,279
Speaker 3: What happened, mister feelin You might call me Walter after

271
00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:34,879
all George does, and we have more in common.

272
00:13:34,919 --> 00:13:36,039
Speaker 5: Please, what happened?

273
00:13:36,279 --> 00:13:38,399
Speaker 3: Well, just a duck at dead duck. George thinks I

274
00:13:38,480 --> 00:13:40,480
killed her by remote control. He wants me to tell him,

275
00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:43,679
how did you look? I'm just an ordinary anthropologist. There's

276
00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:46,720
no telling what those animals died of, just natural causes.

277
00:13:47,200 --> 00:13:48,919
But George can't see it that way. He thinks I'm

278
00:13:48,919 --> 00:13:49,720
holding out on him.

279
00:13:49,759 --> 00:13:52,399
Speaker 5: Good. What at least we can get back at them

280
00:13:52,440 --> 00:13:54,559
some way. At least we can do something to them.

281
00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:57,639
Speaker 3: Why, after all, George isn't a bad fellow. If you

282
00:13:57,840 --> 00:13:59,360
like an ant mentality, How.

283
00:13:59,240 --> 00:14:02,200
Speaker 5: Can you say that they murdered the whole in the

284
00:14:02,279 --> 00:14:02,799
human race?

285
00:14:02,879 --> 00:14:05,840
Speaker 3: I suppose so, but we can't change that now. So

286
00:14:05,879 --> 00:14:06,720
why I think about it.

287
00:14:08,120 --> 00:14:09,799
Speaker 5: We just can't sit here and do nothing.

288
00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:12,000
Speaker 3: I fail to see how we can do anything else.

289
00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:13,240
Speaker 5: At least we could be fighting.

290
00:14:13,360 --> 00:14:15,840
Speaker 3: I can't see the virtue in that. I was more

291
00:14:15,919 --> 00:14:18,559
or less content with my books. And we've got George

292
00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:19,000
to talk to.

293
00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:21,120
Speaker 5: All the men in the world they had to pick.

294
00:14:21,519 --> 00:14:23,039
Don't you want to fight back? Don't you want to

295
00:14:23,080 --> 00:14:24,120
keep on fighting to the end?

296
00:14:24,159 --> 00:14:28,240
Speaker 3: It hadn't occurred to me, But we've got to, Walter. Why.

297
00:14:28,480 --> 00:14:31,559
Speaker 5: I can't really explain it that if there was any

298
00:14:31,600 --> 00:14:34,480
good in man, it was that he kept on struggling

299
00:14:34,519 --> 00:14:38,919
against nature, and in the end, even against himself. He

300
00:14:39,080 --> 00:14:40,879
kept on fighting for what he thought was right. And

301
00:14:40,919 --> 00:14:44,279
where all that's left? What do we just can't end

302
00:14:44,320 --> 00:14:46,279
by giving up. We've got to keep on fighting.

303
00:14:46,639 --> 00:14:49,320
Speaker 3: You know, you do remind me of Martha.

304
00:14:49,399 --> 00:14:52,120
Speaker 5: There is much left for us. We could beat them

305
00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:55,120
in this one small thing. We can pretend there's a

306
00:14:55,159 --> 00:14:57,960
secret about death. We could refuse to tell them anything

307
00:14:58,120 --> 00:15:01,720
there is to tell. But they don't know that. Promise

308
00:15:01,759 --> 00:15:02,480
me you won't give in.

309
00:15:03,559 --> 00:15:05,960
Speaker 3: Well, I suppose the worst they can do is kill us,

310
00:15:06,360 --> 00:15:13,159
all right, Miss Evans, Hello George, Hello Walter, Now.

311
00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:15,080
Speaker 4: You will tell us how these animals are stopped.

312
00:15:16,200 --> 00:15:19,120
Speaker 3: George. This may come as a shock to you, but

313
00:15:19,679 --> 00:15:21,159
I've decided not to tell you.

314
00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:21,559
Speaker 4: Why.

315
00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:26,240
Speaker 3: Oh a romantic attachment to lost causes. My grandfather was

316
00:15:26,240 --> 00:15:27,240
a Confederate officer.

317
00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:28,840
Speaker 4: Walter. You are not being logical.

318
00:15:29,080 --> 00:15:31,840
Speaker 3: Neither was my grandfather. He charged a Yankee battery with

319
00:15:31,919 --> 00:15:34,000
one round of ammunition and a corn cob pipe.

320
00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:36,240
Speaker 4: You are not logical, but that is expected in lower

321
00:15:36,320 --> 00:15:39,000
life forms. He will come with me now, Walter.

322
00:15:39,159 --> 00:15:41,279
Speaker 5: Where are you taking him to the second level?

323
00:15:42,039 --> 00:15:42,840
Speaker 4: Go now, Walter.

324
00:15:43,200 --> 00:15:44,000
Speaker 5: You won't tell them.

325
00:15:44,080 --> 00:15:46,360
Speaker 3: I can't guarantee anything, but as of now, I don't

326
00:15:46,360 --> 00:15:46,799
intend to.

327
00:15:46,919 --> 00:15:50,000
Speaker 5: We've got to fight, Walter. Remember that, we've got to

328
00:15:50,080 --> 00:15:50,919
go out fighting.

329
00:15:51,480 --> 00:15:54,399
Speaker 3: Yes, yes, I think you're right.

330
00:15:55,519 --> 00:15:58,240
Speaker 5: Oh now, Walter, goodbye.

331
00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:02,519
Speaker 3: It's been a place I am waiting. Go now, Walter,

332
00:16:03,559 --> 00:16:04,879
after you, my dear George.

333
00:16:16,279 --> 00:16:22,960
Speaker 4: You will tell us now, Walter, that was the first

334
00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:25,039
level of vibration. There are many more.

335
00:16:25,480 --> 00:16:27,720
Speaker 6: However, we have calculated that none of them ex seed

336
00:16:27,759 --> 00:16:29,360
your threshold of unconsciousness.

337
00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:30,320
Speaker 3: Very clever, George.

338
00:16:30,360 --> 00:16:32,919
Speaker 4: Of course you will tell us now. How do you

339
00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:33,919
stop these animals?

340
00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:38,159
Speaker 3: You will tell us now as of now. No, however,

341
00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:40,240
I'm not very brave. If that encourages you.

342
00:16:40,200 --> 00:16:42,159
Speaker 4: George, you are not being logical, Walter.

343
00:16:42,279 --> 00:16:42,960
Speaker 3: You're telling me.

344
00:16:43,320 --> 00:16:55,600
Speaker 6: We will now use vibration level too, Walter, Walter, you

345
00:16:55,639 --> 00:16:56,519
are still conscious.

346
00:16:56,720 --> 00:16:57,639
Speaker 3: May be alone, George.

347
00:16:57,720 --> 00:16:59,960
Speaker 6: You will tell us now. You will tell us now

348
00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:01,240
how you stop the animals.

349
00:17:01,320 --> 00:17:02,799
Speaker 3: Let me alone, Let me alone.

350
00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:05,480
Speaker 4: We have had vibration levels one and two.

351
00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:09,319
Speaker 6: There are still fifteen more before your threshold of unconsciousness.

352
00:17:09,319 --> 00:17:11,359
Speaker 3: Oh no, no, let me alone, Walter.

353
00:17:11,720 --> 00:17:15,200
Speaker 6: Listen to me. Another creature sleeps and will not weak.

354
00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:16,279
We must know.

355
00:17:16,559 --> 00:17:20,400
Speaker 3: Now it's tough. You gotter start vibrating again, George.

356
00:17:20,960 --> 00:17:24,680
Speaker 4: No, what It would not be logical.

357
00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:28,039
Speaker 6: We have calculated that no further level of vibration will

358
00:17:28,079 --> 00:17:31,880
overcome your irrational psychological block. We conclude you will not

359
00:17:32,039 --> 00:17:37,519
tell let me go. That is correct, sir, real nice

360
00:17:37,519 --> 00:17:39,839
of you, George. I appreciate it. We have calculated that

361
00:17:39,880 --> 00:17:42,480
the resistance of the female of your species will be lower.

362
00:17:42,880 --> 00:17:45,079
Speaker 4: We will now place her under the vibrations.

363
00:17:45,640 --> 00:17:49,880
Speaker 3: No, no, George, George, you can't do that. No, listen, George, George,

364
00:17:49,920 --> 00:17:52,839
there is no secret. Can you understand that there is

365
00:17:52,960 --> 00:17:56,960
no secret? Those animals died from natural causes. I'm telling

366
00:17:56,960 --> 00:17:57,440
you the truth.

367
00:17:57,480 --> 00:17:59,839
Speaker 4: That is not a logical answer. We will get the woman.

368
00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:01,759
Speaker 3: I've told you the truth. Can't you understand?

369
00:18:01,960 --> 00:18:04,640
Speaker 6: We must know now the female animal cage next to

370
00:18:04,680 --> 00:18:05,759
the duck has been stopped.

371
00:18:06,039 --> 00:18:07,000
Speaker 4: We must preserve the.

372
00:18:06,920 --> 00:18:10,559
Speaker 3: Survivor the animal animal next to the duck.

373
00:18:10,839 --> 00:18:12,880
Speaker 4: We will bring the woman here. She will tell us

374
00:18:12,880 --> 00:18:13,640
after the vibration.

375
00:18:13,720 --> 00:18:16,200
Speaker 3: No, no, no, no, listen, George, you want the truth.

376
00:18:17,200 --> 00:18:18,880
You want to know how to save the mates of

377
00:18:18,920 --> 00:18:20,559
the animals that have been stopped.

378
00:18:21,319 --> 00:18:22,640
Speaker 4: You will tell us now.

379
00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:25,279
Speaker 3: Yes, yes, I'll headed. I give up, but you've got

380
00:18:25,279 --> 00:18:28,599
to promise to leave the woman alone. You promise, George,

381
00:18:28,640 --> 00:18:30,000
If we receive the answer.

382
00:18:29,759 --> 00:18:32,359
Speaker 4: From you, Walter, there will be no further need for

383
00:18:32,400 --> 00:18:33,000
the vibration.

384
00:18:34,359 --> 00:18:37,839
Speaker 3: Yes, that'll have to do, all right, all right, take

385
00:18:37,839 --> 00:18:40,759
me to that stopped animal. I'll tell you how to

386
00:18:40,759 --> 00:18:41,519
save the mate.

387
00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:45,839
Speaker 4: Very well, Walter, you are being logical. Now we will go.

388
00:18:57,359 --> 00:18:58,319
Speaker 5: Old. Are you all right?

389
00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:01,559
Speaker 3: Just let me catch my breath a minute.

390
00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:02,759
Speaker 5: What did they do? What happened?

391
00:19:03,240 --> 00:19:06,119
Speaker 3: After a while? I told them what they wanted to know.

392
00:19:06,519 --> 00:19:09,799
Oh no, As George pointed out, it seemed to be

393
00:19:09,839 --> 00:19:12,119
the logical thing at the time, But you promised.

394
00:19:12,359 --> 00:19:14,799
Speaker 5: I know it was our last chance to beat them

395
00:19:14,799 --> 00:19:15,960
on even one little thing.

396
00:19:16,160 --> 00:19:17,960
Speaker 3: Perhaps you mind if I sit down.

397
00:19:18,119 --> 00:19:18,839
Speaker 5: You gave up.

398
00:19:19,240 --> 00:19:22,160
Speaker 3: I suppose you could call it that. I'm very tired.

399
00:19:22,200 --> 00:19:24,920
Speaker 5: They've beating us completely. Then there isn't even anything we

400
00:19:24,960 --> 00:19:26,720
can do, the last of the human race. And we

401
00:19:26,759 --> 00:19:29,119
give up. We don't even die fighting.

402
00:19:29,519 --> 00:19:33,119
Speaker 3: Isn't that bad? Something might turn up?

403
00:19:34,079 --> 00:19:34,839
Speaker 5: What did you call me?

404
00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:39,599
Speaker 3: Huh? No, I must have said Martha. Sorry, she was

405
00:19:39,640 --> 00:19:43,039
my wife. She died two years ago. What are you saying?

406
00:19:43,079 --> 00:19:45,960
Speaker 5: Nothing? Nothing, It doesn't matter. It's too late. It's too

407
00:19:46,079 --> 00:19:47,559
late for the whole human race.

408
00:19:51,440 --> 00:19:55,720
Speaker 3: Now, George, the Council of has met. Oh something wrong.

409
00:19:55,839 --> 00:19:57,680
Speaker 4: Jeord Hasan has been stopped.

410
00:19:57,759 --> 00:19:59,920
Speaker 3: What Zan is dead?

411
00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:01,119
Speaker 4: That is correct.

412
00:20:01,759 --> 00:20:04,759
Speaker 3: Well you didn't believe me, George, But you can die.

413
00:20:04,839 --> 00:20:06,440
You can really die. You'll have to get used to

414
00:20:06,440 --> 00:20:07,519
that if you're going to stay here.

415
00:20:07,720 --> 00:20:10,440
Speaker 6: The council has decided, Hey, you have in some way

416
00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:13,759
stopped this, then be you and the woman must be eliminated.

417
00:20:13,839 --> 00:20:15,480
Speaker 3: Walter. Oh, no, you've got it wrong, George.

418
00:20:15,480 --> 00:20:18,160
Speaker 6: The council has decided this time you will have the

419
00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:19,359
full vibration.

420
00:20:19,319 --> 00:20:22,799
Speaker 5: This time, Walter, what did they do to you?

421
00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:25,559
Speaker 3: Oh? They have a rather effective third degree.

422
00:20:26,079 --> 00:20:31,759
Speaker 5: They tortured you, Walter. Yes, no, I thought, Walter, it

423
00:20:31,799 --> 00:20:32,640
was all my fault.

424
00:20:32,799 --> 00:20:36,000
Speaker 3: I wouldn't even have tried without you. I suppose we

425
00:20:36,039 --> 00:20:40,279
have a last chance now to end with some dignity.

426
00:20:40,640 --> 00:20:42,799
Speaker 5: I think you're a very brave man, Walter.

427
00:20:42,920 --> 00:20:45,960
Speaker 3: Oh, not very There isn't much else to do. Do

428
00:20:46,039 --> 00:20:47,039
we go now, George?

429
00:20:47,279 --> 00:20:56,279
Speaker 4: No? Walter, Wait, what's that? I have been told another

430
00:20:56,440 --> 00:20:57,359
zan has died?

431
00:20:57,599 --> 00:20:58,839
Speaker 3: No, now, will you believe me?

432
00:20:59,000 --> 00:21:00,799
Speaker 4: The Council of the Zama meets now.

433
00:21:00,720 --> 00:21:02,720
Speaker 3: Who gone already? And you were with me? George? You

434
00:21:02,720 --> 00:21:03,680
know I didn't kill this one?

435
00:21:03,720 --> 00:21:04,640
Speaker 4: What stopped him? There?

436
00:21:04,680 --> 00:21:06,559
Speaker 3: I told you it's old man death. You came to

437
00:21:06,599 --> 00:21:09,599
the wrong planet. George, Your immortality doesn't go down here.

438
00:21:10,119 --> 00:21:12,640
He can stop you, but you can't stop him, and

439
00:21:12,680 --> 00:21:17,039
you'll all die if you stick around. What now.

440
00:21:19,839 --> 00:21:23,720
Speaker 4: The council has decided this is a place of death.

441
00:21:24,599 --> 00:21:25,920
We will leave your planet.

442
00:21:26,160 --> 00:21:27,559
Speaker 3: Leave you mean you're giving up?

443
00:21:27,640 --> 00:21:30,720
Speaker 5: It is not safe for the zand when leaving, are

444
00:21:30,799 --> 00:21:32,000
really going go on?

445
00:21:32,119 --> 00:21:32,240
Speaker 4: Then?

446
00:21:32,319 --> 00:21:34,599
Speaker 3: George, and uh, don't hurry back.

447
00:21:34,799 --> 00:21:37,279
Speaker 4: It would not be logical to do so. We are

448
00:21:37,359 --> 00:21:38,319
leaving the earth now.

449
00:21:39,240 --> 00:21:57,960
Speaker 3: Goodbye Walter, goodbye George. Oh they're all aboard now, so.

450
00:21:58,160 --> 00:21:59,920
Speaker 5: Wonderful to feel of the sun and the wind.

451
00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:02,519
Speaker 3: And again, yeah, they closed the hatches.

452
00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:04,480
Speaker 5: What is it safest to be out here?

453
00:22:04,759 --> 00:22:06,880
Speaker 3: Yes, they're not interested in not any longer. They only

454
00:22:06,920 --> 00:22:10,119
want to get away. And I want to see this grace,

455
00:22:11,440 --> 00:22:19,079
the Zan leaving earth forever. They're blasting off.

456
00:22:23,960 --> 00:22:24,440
Speaker 5: There they go.

457
00:22:26,119 --> 00:22:30,200
Speaker 3: Yes, it's all over now. Well, I suppose you might

458
00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:30,920
as well go back in.

459
00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:36,519
Speaker 5: I still don't understand. Well what made them go?

460
00:22:38,440 --> 00:22:40,680
Speaker 3: I just I just told them the facts of life,

461
00:22:40,839 --> 00:22:43,799
of death, you mean of life? After all, I thought

462
00:22:43,839 --> 00:22:45,839
George was old enough to know at seven thousand years

463
00:22:45,839 --> 00:22:47,079
he was going to be a pretty big boy.

464
00:22:47,279 --> 00:22:49,599
Speaker 5: I wish you'd stop joking and tell me what happened

465
00:22:49,799 --> 00:22:50,839
and forgot the step.

466
00:22:51,839 --> 00:22:55,160
Speaker 3: Well, you remember when the first animals died, the rabbit

467
00:22:55,240 --> 00:22:57,440
in the dot yea and their mates just started to

468
00:22:57,640 --> 00:23:01,079
pine and waste away. Yes, we worried the Zan. They

469
00:23:01,119 --> 00:23:03,519
wanted to keep the last specimens alive if they could,

470
00:23:03,599 --> 00:23:08,640
so finally I broke down and told them about affection. Affection, yes,

471
00:23:09,559 --> 00:23:13,519
and then I introduced Donald Donald dos that here we

472
00:23:13,599 --> 00:23:15,519
are Grace meet Donald.

473
00:23:15,319 --> 00:23:17,839
Speaker 5: To Walder, Please, what does affection have to do with it?

474
00:23:18,240 --> 00:23:20,599
Speaker 3: That's what the Zen wanted to know. I told him

475
00:23:20,640 --> 00:23:23,000
it was love that made the world go round, that

476
00:23:23,119 --> 00:23:26,079
having lost his mate, Donald would die immediately unless he

477
00:23:26,119 --> 00:23:31,200
had affection and constant petting, petting. I even showed him

478
00:23:31,240 --> 00:23:36,160
how Yeah. I hed Donald in my arms and I

479
00:23:36,240 --> 00:23:39,079
petted him a while, and then let the zan take

480
00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:41,400
over with the animal in the next cage.

481
00:23:41,839 --> 00:23:45,200
Speaker 5: What animal? Take a look you mean this cage?

482
00:23:46,920 --> 00:23:50,039
Speaker 3: Watch out, don't go too close, Walter is snake. Yes,

483
00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:53,279
their metabolism made it impossible for them to die of

484
00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:55,359
old age, but I had a hunch that they could

485
00:23:55,440 --> 00:23:56,160
be poisoned.

486
00:23:57,519 --> 00:23:59,319
Speaker 5: And it was the snake that killed the two Zen.

487
00:24:00,440 --> 00:24:01,880
Speaker 3: They never even knew what bit them.

488
00:24:02,359 --> 00:24:05,559
Speaker 5: Then you outwitted them, Walter. Well, I suppose I thought

489
00:24:05,599 --> 00:24:08,680
you've just given up water. I'm so ashamed.

490
00:24:08,920 --> 00:24:11,640
Speaker 3: You don't have to be I had given up. I

491
00:24:11,759 --> 00:24:16,000
probably wouldn't have thought if you hadn't pushed me. Well, well,

492
00:24:16,119 --> 00:24:19,559
we've got a world to plan, a new world, Grace.

493
00:24:20,519 --> 00:24:23,200
I know we'll have to decide which animals to let

494
00:24:23,200 --> 00:24:24,880
out of the zoo and which wants it to be

495
00:24:24,920 --> 00:24:28,400
safer to keep in. But first there's a bigger problem.

496
00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:33,640
What's that the human race? Oh, we've got to make

497
00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:37,640
a decision about that pretty important one. Yes, it's been

498
00:24:37,720 --> 00:24:41,720
a nice race, even if nobody wanted. Of course, it

499
00:24:41,799 --> 00:24:43,960
may go backward for a while until it gets its breath.

500
00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:45,599

503
00:24:56,160 --> 00:24:57,759

man on earth.

517
00:25:29,599 --> 00:25:32,279
Speaker 5: I don't care. I don't even want to talk about it.
