1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:06,160
Speaker 1: Mm hmm, Calm down for blast off x minus five

2
00:00:06,719 --> 00:00:38,679
four three two x minus one. Fire from the far

3
00:00:38,759 --> 00:00:42,159
horizons of the unknown come transcribe tales of new dimensions

4
00:00:42,159 --> 00:00:45,560
in time and space. These are stories of the future,

5
00:00:46,079 --> 00:00:48,640
adventures in which you'll live in a million, could be years,

6
00:00:48,679 --> 00:00:52,280
on a thousand, maybe worlds. The National Broadcasting Company, in

7
00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:56,719
cooperation with Street and Smith, publishers of Astounding Science Fiction, presents.

8
00:00:58,479 --> 00:00:59,520
Speaker 2: Minus minus.

9
00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:24,599
Speaker 3: One Tonight's Story to the Future by Ray Bradbury. Time

10
00:01:24,719 --> 00:01:28,560
is an interesting phenomenon, a ticking clock, the running sands

11
00:01:28,599 --> 00:01:31,959
of an hour glass. All these have captured the imagination

12
00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:36,599
of men. But time is more. It exists now and

13
00:01:36,879 --> 00:01:38,879
then and in the future.

14
00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:42,319
Speaker 4: Suppose we are in the year nineteen fifty.

15
00:01:42,040 --> 00:01:47,000
Speaker 3: Five, coexistent in time, may be worlds we have never seen,

16
00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:54,959
the worlds of the past and of the future. The

17
00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:58,560
year nineteen fifty five. It was a spring night in Mexico,

18
00:01:58,879 --> 00:02:02,359
Fiesta time. The fireworks shot up into the clear, dark sky,

19
00:02:02,439 --> 00:02:04,959
and the paper machet bull ran about the plaza, chasing

20
00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:08,800
boys and laughing men. Mister and missus William Travis stood

21
00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:10,639
on the edge of the yelling prod smile.

22
00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:16,319
Speaker 5: What is for the bull?

23
00:02:17,159 --> 00:02:23,400
Speaker 4: Here he comes. Good, isn't it now?

24
00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:26,080
Speaker 6: They rid that fire breathing phil It's wonderful. I've never

25
00:02:26,159 --> 00:02:27,680
enjoyed myself so much in my life.

26
00:02:28,240 --> 00:02:33,199
Speaker 4: It's terrific. Fought the ball brov.

27
00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:37,800
Speaker 6: Colo Hell, Philip will go.

28
00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:41,960
Speaker 4: On, I mean not keep it, so don't worry. I've

29
00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:43,759
got enough travelers checks for a lifetime.

30
00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:45,800
Speaker 6: No, but suppose they find you.

31
00:02:45,879 --> 00:02:46,840
Speaker 4: Forget if they haven't a.

32
00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:49,599
Speaker 6: Chance, suppose they do. Suppose they take us back.

33
00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:53,479
Speaker 4: Never find us. Relax, enjoy yourself if it only lasts.

34
00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:57,000
Come on, let's get out of the crowd. You need

35
00:02:57,039 --> 00:02:57,439
a drink.

36
00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:00,560
Speaker 6: Let's try something different this time. I want to try

37
00:03:00,599 --> 00:03:01,919
every drink there is in the world.

38
00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:05,240
Speaker 4: Don't worry, there's no rush. We've got plenty of time.

39
00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:13,439
Now in here, there's a table over there.

40
00:03:13,479 --> 00:03:19,159
Speaker 6: Come on, Bill, don't don't look right away. Will be

41
00:03:19,159 --> 00:03:20,879
your left shoulder right by the end of the bar.

42
00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:24,080
Speaker 4: That man, what is it?

43
00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:25,840
Speaker 6: I saw him this morning in the plaza.

44
00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:26,680
Speaker 4: Take it.

45
00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:30,919
Speaker 6: The town's full of tours a task, Bill, I'm afraid.

46
00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:31,759
Speaker 4: Don't stare at him.

47
00:03:32,319 --> 00:03:33,960
Speaker 6: I know what's the same man. He was wearing the

48
00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:34,639
same white suit.

49
00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:38,240
Speaker 4: Sit down, sir, Come on, dear, smile at match.

50
00:03:38,479 --> 00:03:41,240
Speaker 6: He's been following us. He's a searcher. I know he is.

51
00:03:41,439 --> 00:03:46,759
Speaker 4: Yet here boynor bendicting a brandy to.

52
00:03:46,199 --> 00:03:49,719
Speaker 6: See he's been watching his Bill.

53
00:03:49,719 --> 00:03:50,879
Speaker 4: Put yourself together soon.

54
00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:52,520
Speaker 6: You can't take us back worrying.

55
00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:54,520
Speaker 4: The chances are one in a thousand that they've found us.

56
00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:56,400
It's probably just a coincidence.

57
00:03:57,319 --> 00:03:59,000
Speaker 6: I want to lie down. I think I'm going to

58
00:03:59,000 --> 00:03:59,280
be sick.

59
00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:01,800
Speaker 4: Susan, hang on, will you? If he is looking for us,

60
00:04:01,879 --> 00:04:03,479
we can't run out attracted.

61
00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:05,240
Speaker 6: He must have slipped up and we checked out in

62
00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:05,680
New York.

63
00:04:06,759 --> 00:04:07,479
Speaker 4: What's he doing now?

64
00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:11,879
Speaker 6: Stopped our waiter. He's asking him something.

65
00:04:12,719 --> 00:04:13,719
Speaker 4: May just want a drink?

66
00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:17,040
Speaker 6: Bill. I can't stand it. I've got to go upstairs

67
00:04:17,079 --> 00:04:18,319
and lie down, all right.

68
00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:21,680
Speaker 4: As soon as we finish our drinks. What's he doing now?

69
00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:28,879
Speaker 6: He's nodding at me as if he knows me. He's

70
00:04:28,879 --> 00:04:31,199
smiled Bill. He's coming over here.

71
00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:33,519
Speaker 4: We've got to go right on in front of him.

72
00:04:33,519 --> 00:04:35,040
So here's what we think he is. He wants to

73
00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:35,399
spect it.

74
00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:35,879
Speaker 6: I can't.

75
00:04:36,199 --> 00:04:39,120
Speaker 4: We got to come on. And so I said to David,

76
00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:43,279
that's absolutely ridiculous. What are you, Christian? You did not

77
00:04:43,319 --> 00:04:47,680
pull up your pants leg when you sat down. I'm

78
00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:52,079
afraid you've got the wrong person. My name isn't Chrysler Kristen. Oh,

79
00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:56,120
I'm William Travis. I don't see what my pants like

80
00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:59,199
it has to do with it? Mind if I sit down?

81
00:05:01,079 --> 00:05:04,600
See everyone nowadays pulls up his pants leg when he

82
00:05:04,639 --> 00:05:09,000
sits down like this. See it keeps the trouser from

83
00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:11,720
begging at the knees. But of course, if you're not

84
00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:14,040
used to this style of clothes, I see here, we

85
00:05:14,079 --> 00:05:17,639
don't know you. You don't. I'm sorry, I thought I

86
00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:20,279
knew you. This is our table, if you don't mind,

87
00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:24,240
you see, I'm looking for two friends of mine, a

88
00:05:24,319 --> 00:05:28,079
man and his wife, very much like you. The man

89
00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:32,879
is an atomic scientist, the wife a bacteriologist. Very important people.

90
00:05:33,519 --> 00:05:36,199
They work on government business. What are you talking about?

91
00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:39,439
And when I find my friends, I'm going to take

92
00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:44,199
them home with me. Look here, mister, mister Simms, that

93
00:05:44,319 --> 00:05:47,079
will do for now. Look, I understand you thought you're newest,

94
00:05:47,079 --> 00:05:50,000
but you see you're mistaken. I feel excuses. My wife

95
00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:51,160
and I were just going up to our room. We

96
00:05:51,199 --> 00:05:53,439
have to make an early start in the morning. Oh,

97
00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:56,680
going for a trip like a pool code. Perhaps, Oh,

98
00:05:56,720 --> 00:05:59,399
a lovely spot. I don't mind where we're going, Yes, yes,

99
00:05:59,439 --> 00:06:03,199
of course you don't like crowds. Tourists probably like to

100
00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:06,680
get off the beaten path. You know. I have a

101
00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:08,839
vacation folder here that might interest you.

102
00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:09,959
Speaker 6: Please let's go.

103
00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:13,800
Speaker 4: It's it's put out by an outfit that calls itself

104
00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:16,399
travel in Time Incorporated.

105
00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:18,720
Speaker 6: Travel in Time.

106
00:06:18,959 --> 00:06:23,560
Speaker 4: Yes, they've come up with a rather intriguing idea. Here,

107
00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:28,439
travel in Time Incorporated can costume you put you in

108
00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:31,519
the crowd at any place and time in history. We

109
00:06:31,639 --> 00:06:33,959
guarantee to teach you any language you need to move

110
00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:38,199
freely in any year without risk of detection. This summer,

111
00:06:38,319 --> 00:06:40,639
why not escape from the warries of our modern world

112
00:06:41,399 --> 00:06:45,079
take your vacation in time. That's impossible, of course, Ah,

113
00:06:45,199 --> 00:06:47,600
but think what it would mean. A chance to escape

114
00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:51,480
all the tensions of an unpleasant life, war insecurity, fear.

115
00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:55,160
Suppose you were a scientist working on a dangerous bomb

116
00:06:55,199 --> 00:07:00,560
project or you, missus Travis, Suppose you were a bacteriologist

117
00:07:00,639 --> 00:07:03,160
working on disease cultures, and you had a chance to

118
00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:05,879
escape all that, to take a vacation two hundred years

119
00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:08,759
in the past. It would be wonderful woudn't it to

120
00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:12,360
escape to a more peaceful world, a trip back to

121
00:07:12,560 --> 00:07:16,519
nineteen fifty five, nineteen fifty five. But you said a

122
00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:19,360
vacation in the past, so I did. But you see,

123
00:07:19,879 --> 00:07:23,959
nineteen fifty five is the past if you'll come from

124
00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:26,319
the year twenty one fifty.

125
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:29,000
Speaker 6: Five, twenty one fifty five.

126
00:07:29,079 --> 00:07:33,319
Speaker 4: Yes, terrible times, most unpleasant, a war raging, an atomic

127
00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:37,160
bacteri logical war. Terrible times with none of the little

128
00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:41,800
comforts we enjoy today, like this fine havana cigar.

129
00:07:43,959 --> 00:07:47,319
Speaker 6: Well, I want to go upstairs, I want to lie down.

130
00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:51,240
Speaker 4: If you were living then, think of how wonderful it

131
00:07:51,279 --> 00:07:55,519
would be to take a vacation in time back to now.

132
00:07:55,959 --> 00:07:59,560
Suppose a young couple like yourselves took a trip to

133
00:07:59,639 --> 00:08:03,920
ninety fifty five and didn't want to come back. Do

134
00:08:03,959 --> 00:08:07,000
you know what would happen? The government sends a searcher

135
00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:09,160
back to look for them. This is all fantastic now.

136
00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:12,279
The searcher finds them and brings them back back to

137
00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:17,920
that miserable, insane, stark, pleasureless world of twenty one fifty five.

138
00:08:19,319 --> 00:08:23,480
A pity, isn't it? Look here, sims, well, do you

139
00:08:23,519 --> 00:08:25,160
think I shall find my two friends.

140
00:08:25,199 --> 00:08:28,560
Speaker 6: Mister Travis, Bill, please take me upstairs.

141
00:08:28,639 --> 00:08:31,279
Speaker 4: I don't feel Oh is the lady feeling a bit ill?

142
00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:38,720
How unfortunate linker. Ah, well, shall we drink a toast

143
00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:56,480
to twenty one fifty five to the future? Sorry? Sorry, quick?

144
00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:04,720
What are you doing shutting a chair under the Doorknom.

145
00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:08,879
Speaker 6: He knows he's been following us. He's a searcher.

146
00:09:09,159 --> 00:09:10,080
Speaker 4: Look, keep quiet.

147
00:09:10,120 --> 00:09:12,600
Speaker 6: So what you're going to take us back?

148
00:09:12,679 --> 00:09:15,960
Speaker 4: It isn't over yet. I've got a headache.

149
00:09:16,639 --> 00:09:22,279
Speaker 6: I'll get you an aspirin us.

150
00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:26,480
Speaker 4: I don't know something slipped. Something must have slipped, but

151
00:09:26,559 --> 00:09:31,080
we were so careful. Searchers are trained to watch for detail.

152
00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:36,279
Things like not pulling up my trousers started them thinking,

153
00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:39,639
there's a man who isn't used to ancient clothes. I

154
00:09:39,639 --> 00:09:41,200
could kill myself for giving it away.

155
00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:46,720
Speaker 6: No, no, it was my walk these high heels here.

156
00:09:47,039 --> 00:09:50,399
Speaker 4: Thanks the nerve of that's sim sitting there looking us

157
00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:53,240
up and down like animals, smoking those stinking cigarettes.

158
00:09:53,320 --> 00:09:55,360
Speaker 6: No, that's how I first noticed him, a Tasco. He

159
00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:58,080
had four bottles of the Quurs and a pile of chocolate.

160
00:09:58,159 --> 00:10:00,600
Speaker 4: Yes, he still hasn't gotten over that first green hunger

161
00:10:01,159 --> 00:10:02,799
We've got to look out for that. It's the sure

162
00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:05,080
sign of somebody from the future trying to make up

163
00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:07,480
for a lifetime of shortage just by stuffing yourself sick.

164
00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:09,120
Remember our first night.

165
00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:11,440
Speaker 6: No, I can't stand it. We've got to get out

166
00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:14,840
of here. What are you doing packing the suitcases up?

167
00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:16,120
Speaker 4: It's no use.

168
00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:17,840
Speaker 6: What do you mean we can get to Alca Polco

169
00:10:17,879 --> 00:10:18,320
by morning?

170
00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:19,240
Speaker 4: Don't you think he's watching?

171
00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:20,039
Speaker 6: We could get away.

172
00:10:20,399 --> 00:10:24,320
Speaker 4: No, no, We've got to sit tight. Maybe he isn't

173
00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:27,320
sure of us yet. Maybe we can still figure out

174
00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:31,440
some way to escape. Come on now, we'll need our strength.

175
00:10:32,759 --> 00:10:34,120
We better try to get some sleep.

176
00:10:45,279 --> 00:10:58,120
Speaker 7: No, no, I won't go back security, puet, Mom, cute it?

177
00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:06,600
Speaker 4: No, well, all right away, calm down, honey. We're still

178
00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:08,159
in nineteen fifty five. It's all right.

179
00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:14,399
Speaker 6: Oh nightmare, Oh Bill, it was awful. We were back

180
00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:18,120
there twenty one fifty five. We won't go back there,

181
00:11:18,159 --> 00:11:18,720
will we ever?

182
00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:21,960
Speaker 4: Tell? Sleep? Honey, it's all right. We're in Mexico nineteen

183
00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:25,159
fifty five and we're going to stay here. So I've

184
00:11:25,159 --> 00:11:29,039
been lying awake here thinking he's still testing us. He's

185
00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:31,720
not absolutely certain he's got all the time in the

186
00:11:31,759 --> 00:11:35,039
world and stay here as long as he likes, and

187
00:11:35,159 --> 00:11:37,480
bring us back to the future sixty seconds after we

188
00:11:37,559 --> 00:11:37,960
left it.

189
00:11:38,279 --> 00:11:40,679
Speaker 6: They can't make a scene, can they. They don't dare

190
00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:41,399
come out in the open.

191
00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:44,600
Speaker 4: No, No, it might change the future. They're afraid of that.

192
00:11:45,639 --> 00:11:48,279
Speaker 6: If we could only tell, somebody ask for Hill.

193
00:11:48,519 --> 00:11:51,720
Speaker 4: We can't. That's why we had to submit to the

194
00:11:51,879 --> 00:11:56,639
psychological block treatment before they okayed our vacation. We couldn't tell.

195
00:11:56,679 --> 00:11:58,360
If we tried. The block's too strong.

196
00:11:59,000 --> 00:11:59,879
Speaker 6: Maybe we can break it.

197
00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:04,120
Speaker 4: What's the use darling who believe a crazy story like ours?

198
00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:06,600
Who'd believe we come from twenty one to fifty five?

199
00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:12,120
We can't tell, and they'll have to get us alone

200
00:12:12,120 --> 00:12:14,200
to put us in the time machine to send us back.

201
00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:19,519
Speaker 6: Then that's it. Bill will never be alone. It's still

202
00:12:19,519 --> 00:12:22,360
Fiesta tomorrow. It'll be easy to stay in the crowd.

203
00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:26,519
Speaker 4: Yes, yes, that's the only chance. We can't let him

204
00:12:26,519 --> 00:12:29,120
get us alone. He won't get us back to that

205
00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:35,360
war in that insane world. Till could be the room

206
00:12:35,399 --> 00:12:37,000
clerk at three.

207
00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:37,399
Speaker 6: In the morning.

208
00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:40,919
Speaker 4: I'd better answer, don't.

209
00:12:40,759 --> 00:12:41,440
Speaker 6: Bill, don't.

210
00:12:44,440 --> 00:12:54,519
Speaker 4: I've got to hello hello, mister Travins. That's the idea

211
00:12:54,559 --> 00:12:55,519
it's three in the morning.

212
00:12:55,840 --> 00:13:00,639
Speaker 8: Yes, yes, I just wanted to remind you rabbits may

213
00:13:00,759 --> 00:13:10,720
hide in the forest, but a fox can always find them.

214
00:13:10,759 --> 00:13:11,519
Speaker 6: What was it, Bill?

215
00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:19,240
Speaker 4: Bill? Never mind, come on, let's get some sleep where

216
00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:33,840
we can. Hm. When as the senor, senor? Morning, Senors,

217
00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:37,720

218
00:13:37,840 --> 00:13:42,159
that time is the best. Yes, you were a especial table.

219
00:13:42,159 --> 00:13:43,480
He's all ready for breakfast.

220
00:13:45,759 --> 00:13:49,399
Speaker 5: I weren't pleasures the hotel? You buster? Where's the hotel?

221
00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:49,600
Speaker 4: And this?

222
00:13:49,919 --> 00:13:52,080
Speaker 5: God? For a second sake, hold of the one horse town,

223
00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:53,639
all the planet.

224
00:13:53,399 --> 00:13:58,080
Speaker 9: Deserts and the.

225
00:13:58,960 --> 00:13:59,360

Speaker 10: If they come we fall trucks and movie motion picture

227
00:14:04,519 --> 00:14:05,679
company from wood.

228
00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:10,320
Speaker 4: Down here they make the pictures of the background. That

229
00:14:10,519 --> 00:14:14,240
the fat man, the one with the most colorful shirt, he.

230
00:14:14,279 --> 00:14:20,320
Speaker 5: Is the chief. Where's the manager coming, Senor? He would

231
00:14:20,320 --> 00:14:20,759
excuse me.

232
00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:25,840
Speaker 4: I hope they're satisfactory, coming coming, Senor. This is a

233
00:14:25,879 --> 00:14:28,120
break so that that movie company will draw crowds and

234
00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:28,679
that helps us.

235
00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:29,440
Speaker 6: When can we leave?

236
00:14:30,399 --> 00:14:30,919
Speaker 4: Not today?

237
00:14:30,919 --> 00:14:34,000
Speaker 9: He'd be okay, Yes, under the line, show you're not

238
00:14:34,200 --> 00:14:35,799

239
00:14:35,799 --> 00:14:38,480
Speaker 6: I got announcer there sims across the dining room.

240
00:14:38,519 --> 00:14:40,440
Speaker 4: You can't do anything. I'm not with these actors coming in.

241
00:14:41,519 --> 00:14:44,440
Speaker 5: Here's it next to Papa Max. Make sure nobody mortgage

242
00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:45,320

243
00:14:45,960 --> 00:14:49,240
Speaker 2: We have to eat at this crumby joint. Joe, cheer up, sweetie.

244
00:14:49,519 --> 00:14:52,600
Your mayor presence makes this chasings and truck.

Speaker 6: Look happy, don't.

251
00:15:03,279 --> 00:15:06,240
Speaker 4: There's an idea. Maybe I could hire two of them.

252
00:15:06,519 --> 00:15:09,000
I could say it was a joke. You could dress

253
00:15:09,039 --> 00:15:10,639
him in arc clothes, have them drive off in arcau

254
00:15:10,720 --> 00:15:12,320
sometime when sims couldn't see their faces.

255
00:15:12,399 --> 00:15:13,279
Speaker 6: Where would that games?

256
00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:14,919
Speaker 4: With him off on their trail, we might make it

257
00:15:14,960 --> 00:15:17,799
to Mexico City. It takes years to wait.

258
00:15:18,840 --> 00:15:19,279
Speaker 6: Coming over.

259
00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:22,399

00:15:22,559 --> 00:15:23,000
Speaker 4: That's right?

261
00:15:23,120 --> 00:15:23,320
Speaker 6: Boy?

00:15:23,440 --> 00:15:25,320

00:15:30,519 --> 00:15:32,720

Speaker 4: Yes, just a moment, mister Travis. I thought you might

278
00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:17,480
be breakfasting with me alone. Sorry, I got him first, Mac.

279
00:16:17,559 --> 00:16:18,320
Speaker 5: Do you want to join us?

280
00:16:18,360 --> 00:16:22,519
Speaker 4: No? No, I've already ordered, mister Travis. I think you'd

281
00:16:22,519 --> 00:16:23,360
better talk with me.

282
00:16:23,639 --> 00:16:26,559
Speaker 2: Jay Jesus guy giving you trouble, It's all right, And

283

Speaker 5: The word, I'll have Max pitch him out on his ear.

00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:31,879
Speaker 4: It's all right. We'll be right over. Mister Meltourn. We'll

286
00:16:31,879 --> 00:16:34,159
talk to mister Sims. Mister Melton, you sort of keep

287
00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:36,440
an eye on us, eh, after all, you found us first.

288
00:16:37,240 --> 00:16:39,559
Speaker 5: Yeah, sure, well, come on over soon. Cheers.

289
00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:47,200
Speaker 4: Uh, sit down, mister Travis. I hope you slept well,

290
00:16:47,879 --> 00:16:50,919
did you well? I'm not used to spring mattresses, but

291
00:16:50,960 --> 00:16:53,759
in our compensations. I stayed up half the night trying

292
00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:57,679
new cigarettes and foods, a whole new spectrum of sensation,

293
00:16:57,840 --> 00:17:01,480
these ancient vices. We miss something in our world, don't we,

294
00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:03,600
And when we could get back here, we try to

295
00:17:03,679 --> 00:17:05,920
cram it all in a few short days.

296
00:17:06,319 --> 00:17:07,839
Speaker 6: We don't know what you're talking about.

297
00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:14,799
Speaker 4: Still acting, eh, But it's no use. You can't stay

298
00:17:14,839 --> 00:17:17,960
in crowds all the time. I'll get you alone soon enough.

299
00:17:18,799 --> 00:17:23,200
I'm immensely patient. However, let's come to the point. You know,

300
00:17:23,279 --> 00:17:26,119
we can't let you get away with this escape. Other

301
00:17:26,160 --> 00:17:28,119
people in the year twenty one to fifty five might

302
00:17:28,160 --> 00:17:30,559
get the same idea and do the same thing, and

303
00:17:30,640 --> 00:17:34,279
we need people to fighter wars. Well, it's all right, Susan.

304
00:17:35,160 --> 00:17:38,440
We can talk on his terms. Now he's got us.

305
00:17:38,440 --> 00:17:43,359
We can't escape at last. Really, you know you've been

306
00:17:43,400 --> 00:17:47,559
incredibly romantic, running away from your responsibilities.

307
00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:48,200
Speaker 6: Running away from horror.

308
00:17:48,279 --> 00:17:52,359
Speaker 4: Oh nonsense, only a war only with half the world

309
00:17:52,400 --> 00:17:54,599
dead and the other half dying. Yes, but we can't

310
00:17:54,599 --> 00:17:57,920
have you escaping here while we drop off a cliff. Dying.

311
00:17:57,960 --> 00:17:59,799
People love to know that others died with me.

312
00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:01,680
Speaker 5: Yeah, break it up. We're waiting on you.

313
00:18:02,160 --> 00:18:04,920
Speaker 4: The longer you keep me waiting, the harders will go

314
00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:07,640
on you. What do you mean we need you on

315
00:18:07,720 --> 00:18:13,279
that bomb project? Return now, and no torture. Torture, yes,

316
00:18:14,400 --> 00:18:17,160
you see later we'll force you to work, and after

317
00:18:17,200 --> 00:18:21,359
you've finish the bomb, we'll try a number of complicated

318
00:18:21,480 --> 00:18:25,519
new devices on you. As you say you can't escape.

319
00:18:25,720 --> 00:18:29,680
We have all the time in the world here, Sims.

320
00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:32,440
I'll make a deal with him. I'll come back now

321
00:18:33,359 --> 00:18:39,240
if my wife stays here alive, safe away from that war. No, well, Sims,

322
00:18:40,240 --> 00:18:43,400
you need me for that bomb. You can duplicate her work. Hmm.

323
00:18:44,799 --> 00:18:50,039
It exceeds my authority. But all right, meet me in

324
00:18:50,079 --> 00:18:53,640
the plaza in ten minutes. The cap the car good.

325
00:18:54,160 --> 00:18:56,440
We'll drive out into the country to some deserted spot

326
00:18:56,480 --> 00:18:58,440
and I'll have the time travel machine pick us up. No,

327
00:18:58,599 --> 00:19:02,640

as safety of numbers, they figure ah.

454
00:25:22,759 --> 00:25:23,960

455
00:25:23,759 --> 00:25:28,799
Speaker 2: On, and this couple is terribly important for a new bomb,

456
00:25:29,680 --> 00:25:36,240
let's call it the leprosy bomb. So the searchers figure

457
00:25:36,279 --> 00:25:38,400
out a way that they can get them alone.

458
00:25:39,640 --> 00:25:40,559
Speaker 4: In the hotel room.

459
00:25:41,559 --> 00:25:46,720
Speaker 5: Shove a tear under the datos, Yes, sir, you see.

460

Speaker 2: The searchers may work alone or in groups of eight,

461
00:25:52,559 --> 00:25:54,559
so that if one of them's killed, the rest carry on.

462
00:25:56,480 --> 00:25:59,640
Don't you think that would make a wonderful picture? H Susan,
