G. 14 00:01:02.479 --> 00:01:07.079 Wells told it, And here is terrifying story dream of armageddon. 15 00:01:18.239 --> 00:01:20.959 From the very beginning, the dream is quite vivid and real, 16 00:01:21.799 --> 00:01:24.359 much more real than the dull world of business that 17 00:01:24.480 --> 00:01:27.640 moves by day. And in a short time I begin 18 00:01:27.760 --> 00:01:30.200 to thrust the waking world aside and live my life 19 00:01:30.359 --> 00:01:34.799 wholly in the dream night by night. I was not 20 00:01:35.000 --> 00:01:38.599 then aware, of course, of the the hideous ending to come, 21 00:01:40.079 --> 00:01:42.719 a thing so horrible to face that even though I 22 00:01:42.799 --> 00:01:46.760 doze now in my chair, I dare not sleep. I 23 00:01:46.799 --> 00:01:50.640 can't recall exactly when the dream, if it is a dream, 24 00:01:50.760 --> 00:01:55.760 first began, oh a month ago, perhaps at any rate, 25 00:01:55.799 --> 00:01:59.000 I fell asleep in my flight and awoke in another 26 00:01:59.040 --> 00:02:04.159 place and another time. That is to say, as I 27 00:02:04.239 --> 00:02:09.680 fell asleep here, I awoke there far away, on an 28 00:02:09.680 --> 00:02:13.800 island in the Mediterranean, and hundreds of years in the future. 29 00:02:15.280 --> 00:02:20.560 Headen, Heiden, you must wake up now, wake up? 30 00:02:22.800 --> 00:02:26.280 But I where where am I here with me? 31 00:02:26.479 --> 00:02:29.879 Of course? Oh, Hiden, my dear, you've been dreaming. 32 00:02:30.759 --> 00:02:35.280 Oh yes, yes, I I remember now. I was with 33 00:02:35.319 --> 00:02:37.159 such a vivid dreamer. I thought I was a man 34 00:02:37.240 --> 00:02:40.759 living hundreds of years ago, Sillep. But it took me 35 00:02:40.759 --> 00:02:41.719 a moment to shake it off. 36 00:02:41.960 --> 00:02:44.120 And was I there with you in the dream? 37 00:02:44.159 --> 00:02:47.719 I mean you're here with me now. That that's the 38 00:02:47.800 --> 00:02:52.319 important thing. Has there been no word? Not nothing has changed. 39 00:02:52.360 --> 00:02:54.159 Nothing, otherwise I should have awakened you. 40 00:02:54.439 --> 00:02:57.639 Good. Perhaps they finally decided to leave. 41 00:02:57.560 --> 00:03:00.000 Us alone, I hope so I couldn't stand much more. 42 00:03:00.919 --> 00:03:03.840 Our faces on every telescreen all over the world, scandal 43 00:03:03.919 --> 00:03:05.039 criers saying. 44 00:03:04.879 --> 00:03:08.439 It does not matter, Noma, it's over. We've left all 45 00:03:08.439 --> 00:03:10.000 that behind us in the North. We're going to be 46 00:03:10.080 --> 00:03:10.919 very happy. 47 00:03:10.639 --> 00:03:14.080 Here, Oh my darling, we have to be. It's the 48 00:03:14.159 --> 00:03:15.759 only thing that would justify what you did. 49 00:03:15.960 --> 00:03:19.919 Nomah, Can you doubt that we will come here? Look 50 00:03:19.960 --> 00:03:23.039 out through the glass wall there, blue sea down belows, 51 00:03:23.199 --> 00:03:26.719 pale heels and the far off mainland. Why is there 52 00:03:26.719 --> 00:03:29.240 any more perfect place to be happy than here in Caprin? 53 00:03:29.759 --> 00:03:32.759 And what of the women you brought with you? Did 54 00:03:32.800 --> 00:03:35.639 you not perhaps give up too much for us, pay 55 00:03:35.680 --> 00:03:36.439 too great a price? 56 00:03:37.639 --> 00:03:39.400 You're worth more than all of it. Noma. 57 00:03:40.560 --> 00:03:41.879 You make me feel very humble. 58 00:03:43.240 --> 00:03:46.199 You were the most powerful men on earth, council mastered, 59 00:03:46.240 --> 00:03:48.439 the Allied nations of the North, the. 60 00:03:48.479 --> 00:03:50.360 Ruler of a billion people. 61 00:03:50.199 --> 00:03:55.520 A billion fools. Why had they not been they would 62 00:03:55.560 --> 00:03:56.240 have accepted you. 63 00:03:56.680 --> 00:03:58.599 They they felt they had reasons. 64 00:03:58.479 --> 00:04:03.080 Reasons not permit me to marry beneath my station. Now 65 00:04:04.360 --> 00:04:06.680 I've given my whole life to them. Until now has 66 00:04:06.680 --> 00:04:09.840 a man no right to happiness? Noma? They follow their 67 00:04:09.879 --> 00:04:12.319 own desires. Why shouldn't I do the same for once? 68 00:04:12.400 --> 00:04:12.840 Why not? 69 00:04:12.919 --> 00:04:17.040 Indeed, I've no answer for your beloved. I'm proud and 70 00:04:17.120 --> 00:04:21.519 humble for what you did. Also a little afraid afraid 71 00:04:21.519 --> 00:04:21.879 of what. 72 00:04:22.759 --> 00:04:27.480 I don't know, Heathen, I don't know, but I advised your. 73 00:04:27.240 --> 00:04:31.040 Pardon, Master Heaton. May I have your attention? Please? 74 00:04:31.240 --> 00:04:32.720 Yes, yes, go ahead. 75 00:04:32.759 --> 00:04:36.279 What is it There is one here who desires to speak. 76 00:04:35.959 --> 00:04:37.879 With I'll see no one. I've told you that. 77 00:04:38.079 --> 00:04:42.600 He tells me to say, the white grasses grow tall 78 00:04:42.720 --> 00:04:45.519 in the north and reach above the snow. 79 00:04:46.399 --> 00:04:47.680 It's a messenger from the concert. 80 00:04:47.720 --> 00:04:50.399 Yes, very well, send him up. 81 00:04:51.800 --> 00:04:54.519 What does it mean? Have they thought of some new way? 82 00:04:55.800 --> 00:04:57.959 Oh, my darling, it is nothing. You'll talk of duty 83 00:04:58.000 --> 00:04:59.959 again and all the other things, the same kind of talk. 84 00:05:00.079 --> 00:05:01.000 It can't be anything else. 85 00:05:01.360 --> 00:05:02.800 The chosen someone besides. 86 00:05:03.360 --> 00:05:05.399 But they did choose him. If he doesn't suit them, 87 00:05:05.399 --> 00:05:07.160 they can find someone else. I'll have no part of it. 88 00:05:07.160 --> 00:05:09.680 It's such a fool, such a stupid, blundering fool. 89 00:05:10.000 --> 00:05:13.600 Perhaps they need a fool. Perhaps that's why there's the messenger. 90 00:05:14.600 --> 00:05:21.360 I mean, I must beg you to pardon this intrusion. 91 00:05:21.439 --> 00:05:24.240 Master hidden, But the Council considers the matter of the 92 00:05:24.360 --> 00:05:25.560 greatest importance. 93 00:05:25.600 --> 00:05:26.160 That's all right. 94 00:05:27.079 --> 00:05:30.160 Now, What is it you wish if we we could 95 00:05:30.199 --> 00:05:30.839 speak alone? 96 00:05:30.879 --> 00:05:34.560 Perhaps I have no secrets from the lady. She knows everything. Now, 97 00:05:34.560 --> 00:05:34.959 what is it? 98 00:05:35.439 --> 00:05:38.240 I am empowered by the council to ask you to 99 00:05:38.279 --> 00:05:40.199 return at once and take charge. 100 00:05:39.959 --> 00:05:46.360 Of the government again alone. Yes, yes, that would be required, 101 00:05:46.399 --> 00:05:47.120 of course. 102 00:05:46.920 --> 00:05:49.160 And the council wastes my time and there but. 103 00:05:49.279 --> 00:05:50.839 There have been new developments. 104 00:05:50.920 --> 00:05:53.720 Everysham already has begun the moves we've always feared. He 105 00:05:53.759 --> 00:05:56.800 would not no one, but you can stop this madness, 106 00:05:56.839 --> 00:05:58.120 this foolish ambition of his. 107 00:05:58.360 --> 00:06:00.920 And more's the pity. I do not choose to do 108 00:06:00.920 --> 00:06:01.519 anything about it. 109 00:06:01.680 --> 00:06:02.959 You know what it means. 110 00:06:03.000 --> 00:06:04.959 Of course, I know nothing of the affairs of government. 111 00:06:04.959 --> 00:06:07.759 I am a private citizen engaged in seeking happiness. 112 00:06:07.920 --> 00:06:11.240 Master Headen, do you believe that one man can work 113 00:06:11.279 --> 00:06:14.560 out his fate apart and separate from the faith of 114 00:06:14.560 --> 00:06:15.480 all mankind? 115 00:06:17.120 --> 00:06:19.399 You may leave now, you may go back and tell 116 00:06:19.439 --> 00:06:22.040 the Council that I have no concern in their problems 117 00:06:22.120 --> 00:06:22.959 now or ever. 118 00:06:24.800 --> 00:06:26.040 Very well, Master Headon. 119 00:06:27.160 --> 00:06:33.360 But if you should decide differently, decide quickly, for there 120 00:06:33.439 --> 00:06:34.639 is very little. 121 00:06:34.439 --> 00:06:41.199 Time, Oh Headen, Is it true? Will it really come 122 00:06:41.199 --> 00:06:41.399 to that? 123 00:06:41.639 --> 00:06:47.079 Probably? The South and East not easily bluffed war losing. 124 00:06:46.759 --> 00:06:49.399 The world again for the first time one hundred years 125 00:06:50.120 --> 00:06:50.759 war again. 126 00:06:50.879 --> 00:06:53.040 They don't know what it is, they don't they've never 127 00:06:53.079 --> 00:06:53.519 seen it. 128 00:06:54.279 --> 00:06:55.800 Then you can't let it happen. 129 00:06:55.600 --> 00:06:57.839 No, my darling, I've made a choice and it's final. 130 00:06:58.639 --> 00:07:01.680 If it comes to war and old world falls in ruins, 131 00:07:01.720 --> 00:07:05.160 then I'll live on in the ruins. But I'll live 132 00:07:05.199 --> 00:07:07.680 there with you. That's fine. 133 00:07:09.160 --> 00:07:10.079 Eating, I'm afraid. 134 00:07:15.360 --> 00:07:18.839 I calmed her fears at last with many brave prophecies 135 00:07:18.839 --> 00:07:20.839 of the joys we should find in our life together. 136 00:07:21.360 --> 00:07:23.600 And as we talked and watch the sun sing finally 137 00:07:23.639 --> 00:07:27.240 in the waters of the quiet sea, the blusterings of 138 00:07:27.480 --> 00:07:30.319 Evershoon seemed far away in the threat of war, no 139 00:07:30.439 --> 00:07:34.839 more than a part of some nightmare. At a late hour, 140 00:07:35.639 --> 00:07:36.439 we fell asleep. 141 00:07:47.720 --> 00:07:56.279 Henry, Henry, wake up, I said, wake up, cause you 142 00:07:56.439 --> 00:07:58.279 I always have to wait for me to shut off 143 00:07:58.319 --> 00:07:58.800 at clock. 144 00:07:59.040 --> 00:08:00.759 Sorry, DearS, dreaming. 145 00:08:00.560 --> 00:08:03.040 Dreaming, indeed, I got to self dressed. 146 00:08:03.040 --> 00:08:04.879 You won't be laid again this week? Good chance of war. 147 00:08:05.120 --> 00:08:06.560 I don't know just what I can. 148 00:08:06.439 --> 00:08:08.920 Do about it, oh, Henry, for pity's sake. 149 00:08:08.839 --> 00:08:11.199 I think certainly I won't give her up, no matter 150 00:08:11.240 --> 00:08:12.680 what happened her. 151 00:08:12.959 --> 00:08:14.199 Who's her? 152 00:08:14.920 --> 00:08:17.160 Yes, Yes, of course, I'm getting up right this minute. 153 00:08:18.759 --> 00:08:20.920 I'll get dressed right away, Henry. No, there's no need 154 00:08:20.959 --> 00:08:22.920 to get excited. There. There's plenty of time to catch 155 00:08:22.959 --> 00:08:23.879 the seventh twelve I. 156 00:08:23.839 --> 00:08:25.959 Never saw such a man in my life. Wasn't for 157 00:08:26.000 --> 00:08:27.600 me telling you what to do? I don't know what 158 00:08:27.639 --> 00:08:28.439 would become of you. 159 00:08:34.840 --> 00:08:37.399 All that day at my office, I kept thinking about 160 00:08:37.440 --> 00:08:41.039 the dream. It was hard to remember that it had 161 00:08:41.080 --> 00:08:44.120 been a dream. It had been so real, as real 162 00:08:44.200 --> 00:08:48.279 as everyday things going on around me, perhaps even more real, 163 00:08:50.320 --> 00:08:56.120 certainly more desirable, or as you may have guessed, my 164 00:08:56.600 --> 00:09:01.679 daily life held a little of interest. Dream. Oh, and 165 00:09:01.759 --> 00:09:06.000 the dream, everything was different. There I could be the 166 00:09:06.039 --> 00:09:10.200 great master heading, controlling the destinies of millions of people, 167 00:09:10.279 --> 00:09:13.320 feeling for the first time in my life, a deep 168 00:09:13.360 --> 00:09:16.759 and exhilarating sense of power, so sharp in its contrast 169 00:09:16.799 --> 00:09:21.919 with a drag waking life I lead. And most of all, 170 00:09:23.639 --> 00:09:26.679 most of all, I could not forget the girl, the 171 00:09:26.759 --> 00:09:33.320 way she looked, the glorious way that she well no matter. 172 00:09:33.840 --> 00:09:35.840 All day, I kept wondering if I should be able 173 00:09:35.840 --> 00:09:38.559 to find the place again, so far away in space 174 00:09:38.639 --> 00:09:42.879 and time too long delayed. The night came at last, 175 00:09:42.879 --> 00:09:48.080 and I went to bed hopefully, But nothing happened. There 176 00:09:48.159 --> 00:09:51.200 was no dream. For three nights, there was no dream, 177 00:09:51.240 --> 00:09:54.480 and I grew frantic with worry, with longing for her, 178 00:09:54.879 --> 00:09:56.399 and then came the fourth night. 179 00:10:00.240 --> 00:10:02.919 Darling, watch where you're going? You almost fell over those rocks. 180 00:10:02.960 --> 00:10:06.080 I'm sorry. I I guess I was thinking of something else. 181 00:10:06.440 --> 00:10:10.039 Yes, for three days now you haven't been yourself at all. 182 00:10:10.240 --> 00:10:13.360 Well, it's well, there are there are so many things 183 00:10:13.399 --> 00:10:14.480 to think about. 184 00:10:15.279 --> 00:10:18.120 It's all right, headen. I've known you were thinking of 185 00:10:18.159 --> 00:10:20.480 it constantly, even though you were not mentioned. 186 00:10:21.159 --> 00:10:23.879 There's nothing new, is there? 187 00:10:24.559 --> 00:10:25.519 What I mean? 188 00:10:26.799 --> 00:10:28.799 Well, have you had any word that you've kept from me? 189 00:10:29.840 --> 00:10:33.000 Thought it best to something of that sort? 190 00:10:33.559 --> 00:10:37.200 No, Heaton, No, I've had no word from the north. Huh, 191 00:10:37.639 --> 00:10:40.600 no one here has yet. Everyone seems to sense it. 192 00:10:41.799 --> 00:10:46.000 There's a fever in the air, tenseness. So they could 193 00:10:46.039 --> 00:10:48.559 smell something, the smell of war. 194 00:10:48.679 --> 00:10:51.799 Perhaps there'll be no war. One Serviceham knows his bluff's 195 00:10:51.799 --> 00:10:52.799 been called. You'll back down. 196 00:10:52.879 --> 00:10:55.080 You know him better than that. You're proud of that 197 00:10:55.120 --> 00:10:57.639 blind luck of his to see him through. And you 198 00:10:57.679 --> 00:10:59.159 could stop him hidden you could still go. 199 00:10:59.320 --> 00:11:00.200 I mean, not going by. 200 00:11:01.120 --> 00:11:03.480 How can we hope to find happiness for ourselves if 201 00:11:03.559 --> 00:11:05.080 millions die because of us? 202 00:11:05.120 --> 00:11:09.120 If it should start, it can't last long. People in 203 00:11:09.159 --> 00:11:11.000 the world that they have no idea what war is 204 00:11:11.000 --> 00:11:13.000 when they find out, they'll have no part of it. 205 00:11:13.039 --> 00:11:15.639 When they find out, it'll be too late. There'll be 206 00:11:15.679 --> 00:11:18.279 blood on the ground then, and hate and vengeance, and 207 00:11:18.360 --> 00:11:19.320 there can be no stopping it. 208 00:11:19.399 --> 00:11:22.559 Then why should not, well, then the food shouldn't. They 209 00:11:22.559 --> 00:11:23.440 shouldn't start it then. 210 00:11:23.480 --> 00:11:25.120 But they are fool you said yourself. 211 00:11:26.799 --> 00:11:32.399 Look, oh, planes, some special pleasure flight from the north, 212 00:11:32.440 --> 00:11:34.679 I suppose he and they They. 213 00:11:34.600 --> 00:11:37.679 Don't look like transport. They're not built the same day. 214 00:11:38.039 --> 00:11:39.240 They're like pictures of the art. 215 00:11:40.720 --> 00:11:44.399 There's are war planes. Those are bombers. 216 00:11:48.919 --> 00:11:50.519 It's begun already. 217 00:11:50.600 --> 00:11:53.600 No, no, but it's part of the bluff and the dangerous. 218 00:11:53.600 --> 00:11:57.639 But those planes have been stored away for a hundred years. 219 00:11:57.919 --> 00:11:59.799 I knew of them, of course, all the counsul did, 220 00:11:59.799 --> 00:12:03.200 but but I never thought i'd see them in the air. 221 00:12:04.360 --> 00:12:08.600 I fear it's a wrong, terrible thing we've done, and 222 00:12:08.679 --> 00:12:13.039 I'm afraid, but it would be a lie, I beloved, 223 00:12:13.679 --> 00:12:22.879 I said, I was sorry. 224 00:12:23.360 --> 00:12:25.759 No more war planes came to Capri in the next 225 00:12:25.759 --> 00:12:28.960 two days. The sight and the sound of the first 226 00:12:28.960 --> 00:12:32.879 ones had been enough. The peaceful island of Pleasure became 227 00:12:32.879 --> 00:12:37.279 a beehive of belligerent activity. Preparation for war by a 228 00:12:37.360 --> 00:12:42.200 people who had never known anything would peace. Old weapons 229 00:12:42.200 --> 00:12:45.159 relics for years came out of storage, places were cleaned, polished, 230 00:12:45.200 --> 00:12:47.679 made ready. Big guns appeared, as if by magic, were 231 00:12:47.720 --> 00:12:51.720 quickly set in placements about the rocky aisle. Norman and 232 00:12:51.720 --> 00:12:53.840 I took no part in the madness about us, but 233 00:12:53.879 --> 00:12:57.120 walked alone from the others. She with a growing sadness, 234 00:12:57.120 --> 00:13:01.279 and I were a swelling hatred for blind blundering and 235 00:13:01.320 --> 00:13:05.600 for the stupidity he'd called forth now in mankind and 236 00:13:05.639 --> 00:13:07.159 then late afternoon of the. 237 00:13:07.120 --> 00:13:10.399 Third day, But why why do they act as if 238 00:13:10.440 --> 00:13:12.399 they might come here if they were a war? 239 00:13:12.440 --> 00:13:13.720 It could never reach the caprios. 240 00:13:13.759 --> 00:13:16.039 Who knows why they act or what they think. There's 241 00:13:16.080 --> 00:13:18.159 no reasoning in them, the like sheep, anxious to get 242 00:13:18.159 --> 00:13:19.639 their throats cut and have it over with. 243 00:13:19.759 --> 00:13:21.960 It was all so beautiful, so beautiful. 244 00:13:22.279 --> 00:13:24.960 Oh no, no, man, it still all. This has nothing 245 00:13:24.960 --> 00:13:26.960 to do with us. We've turned our backs on it. 246 00:13:27.279 --> 00:13:29.960 What they do now is their own concern. This can't 247 00:13:30.000 --> 00:13:30.720 touch us. 248 00:13:30.720 --> 00:13:34.240 So terrible to think about it. Didn't look planes that 249 00:13:34.360 --> 00:13:36.240 come back sitting over the hills there. 250 00:13:36.279 --> 00:13:39.799 He's still playing the same old game. Oh, how long 251 00:13:39.879 --> 00:13:45.200 can that blundering Eversham halt to ohma, But these are 252 00:13:45.200 --> 00:13:47.279 not the same ones. What do you mean? I know 253 00:13:47.320 --> 00:13:49.600 the shape of these. These are war planes, warplanes from 254 00:13:49.600 --> 00:13:52.200 the south and oh no, oh no, if. 255 00:13:52.120 --> 00:13:59.600 It can't mean any thing. Was that what they call 256 00:13:59.639 --> 00:13:59.919 a bout? 257 00:14:00.360 --> 00:14:01.639 That's what they call. 258 00:14:04.000 --> 00:14:06.159 I want to see it. Oh, it's horror. And then 259 00:14:06.200 --> 00:14:08.159 you see, I wanted to see it too. 260 00:14:09.919 --> 00:14:11.840 Down there by the edge of the water, where the 261 00:14:11.879 --> 00:14:15.360 little pavilion was eaten, there's nothing but broken rocks and 262 00:14:15.399 --> 00:14:16.240 smoke drifting up. 263 00:14:16.279 --> 00:14:17.600 Yes, the first alarm. 264 00:14:18.039 --> 00:14:20.720 Why should they wish to destroy a little summer pavilion? 265 00:14:20.799 --> 00:14:23.600 An accident? They were trying there for the docks. 266 00:14:23.679 --> 00:14:26.320 We swam there every morning. Do you remember how clear 267 00:14:26.360 --> 00:14:29.519 and how clean the water was? There must be blood in. 268 00:14:29.440 --> 00:14:32.080 It now normal. There's no good in that kind of thinking. 269 00:14:32.840 --> 00:14:34.759 This is what they chose. Now they've got. 270 00:14:34.840 --> 00:14:36.039 They couldn't have known it would be like me. 271 00:14:36.159 --> 00:14:38.519 Perhaps not. That can't be helped now. It's too late 272 00:14:38.559 --> 00:14:39.720 now for them ever to turn back. 273 00:14:39.799 --> 00:14:45.480 How could they ever. 274 00:14:46.759 --> 00:14:47.000 Look? 275 00:14:47.919 --> 00:15:00.360 Heidden plane along the beach promenade, hundreds of people, children too, Hi, 276 00:15:02.000 --> 00:15:03.039 I don't want to see anymore. 277 00:15:03.080 --> 00:15:06.039 Not ever, We've got to find some way to get 278 00:15:06.080 --> 00:15:09.799 out of here, some way, some way. Capri is right 279 00:15:09.840 --> 00:15:10.639 in the middle of it. 280 00:15:10.639 --> 00:15:13.480 It was so beautiful here. Why should anyone. 281 00:15:13.240 --> 00:15:16.720 Make war on cap Why war has a bad habit 282 00:15:16.799 --> 00:15:18.759 of spreading everywhere once it's turned loose. 283 00:15:19.919 --> 00:15:24.759 Just Supervisor from twenty two. 284 00:15:24.840 --> 00:15:26.759 I'm like a private plane and a pilot right away, 285 00:15:27.240 --> 00:15:29.120 destination to be decided. 286 00:15:29.480 --> 00:15:32.720 Sorry, sir, All planes have been taken over by the 287 00:15:32.759 --> 00:15:34.919 government of general order by Master. 288 00:15:34.720 --> 00:15:37.360 Eversham confound all right? 289 00:15:37.799 --> 00:15:38.600 What about a boat? 290 00:15:38.919 --> 00:15:43.039 Powerboats have been taken over.

We 327 00:17:42.039 --> 00:17:44.400 tried first to land somewhere along the southern shore of 328 00:17:44.440 --> 00:17:49.160 the Mediterranean. We found it everywhere the same. In some places, 329 00:17:49.200 --> 00:17:52.880 the people were dying of disease and starvation and others. 330 00:17:52.920 --> 00:17:57.920 They were dying of bleeding burns from the flame of war. Always, always, 331 00:17:57.920 --> 00:17:59.559 they would guying hidden. 332 00:17:59.559 --> 00:18:04.519 Everywhere we go we find dead, dead bodies, more and more. 333 00:18:04.400 --> 00:18:05.000 Old time. 334 00:18:05.759 --> 00:18:07.480 What's happening there? 335 00:18:07.559 --> 00:18:08.359 The whole world gone? 336 00:18:08.400 --> 00:18:08.640 Man? 337 00:18:09.240 --> 00:18:10.400 Is the whole world. 338 00:18:10.160 --> 00:18:16.240 Dying back again to the north and a landing on 339 00:18:16.279 --> 00:18:19.400 the peninsula, then pushing our way over them, trying to 340 00:18:19.400 --> 00:18:22.400 find some haven in a world intent on smashing itself 341 00:18:22.440 --> 00:18:26.759 to bloody fragments playing from the idiot fury around us 342 00:18:26.799 --> 00:18:28.960 and being blocked, blocked at every turn. 343 00:18:29.160 --> 00:18:30.240 You cannot go there. 344 00:18:30.720 --> 00:18:32.640 You must turn back immediately. 345 00:18:32.759 --> 00:18:35.200 Why why as we turn back when there's no place 346 00:18:35.279 --> 00:18:36.640 left to go back to back? 347 00:18:36.759 --> 00:18:40.319 Well that I cannot tell you. But if you know, father, 348 00:18:40.880 --> 00:18:43.880 you will die. They have views poison gas, and the 349 00:18:43.920 --> 00:18:48.160 area is contaminated over hundreds of miles. I've seen people 350 00:18:48.279 --> 00:18:52.359 die from it. It is not a pretty said every word, 351 00:18:52.559 --> 00:18:55.000 of course, sir, If you would like to stay here, 352 00:18:55.519 --> 00:18:58.440 I'm sure we can take care of that pretty little 353 00:18:58.680 --> 00:19:01.839 broke of yours. Yes, yes, well. 354 00:19:05.640 --> 00:19:08.920 There were no real battle lines as yet, no armies. 355 00:19:09.880 --> 00:19:14.359 The thing had come too fast. But everywhere roving bands 356 00:19:14.400 --> 00:19:18.440 fot plunder had killed one another, sometimes not even knowing 357 00:19:18.440 --> 00:19:23.240 if they were killing friend of four, and always always overhead, 358 00:19:23.279 --> 00:19:28.319 with the planes humming like hawks, killing anything that moved. Hiden, 359 00:19:28.720 --> 00:19:30.680 do you think he sees us? I'm sure I'm a double. 360 00:19:32.759 --> 00:19:34.200 Don't move. He heading toward us, all. 361 00:19:34.200 --> 00:19:36.160 Right, even we can't just lie. 362 00:19:36.200 --> 00:19:41.640 Don't move. No, by Heaven, I think it is us. 363 00:19:41.680 --> 00:19:56.279 Look where that old woman walking in the road. Oh horrible, horrible, No, No, 364 00:19:57.799 --> 00:20:06.759 let's go. It wasn't us. He was after And so 365 00:20:07.000 --> 00:20:10.920 for love and for reason, on and on, day after 366 00:20:11.039 --> 00:20:16.319 day we fled from the monstrous stupidity of war, till 367 00:20:16.359 --> 00:20:30.079 at last we could flee no farther. We found ourselves 368 00:20:30.079 --> 00:20:32.359 at dawn one morning, in an open space near those 369 00:20:32.440 --> 00:20:37.599 great ruined temples that bystuem Roman ruins that have stood 370 00:20:37.640 --> 00:20:41.960 for centuries were still standing. Even then. We sat and 371 00:20:42.000 --> 00:20:47.400 watched the sunrise, most beautiful I've ever seen. We said 372 00:20:47.400 --> 00:20:50.880 little to one another.
