Speaker 3: chambers of the human soul, which, once they have opened
Speaker 3: upon a man, leave them change forever.
Speaker 1: The leading role of Sherwood.
Speaker 3: Latimer is played by a young actor new to Radio

Speaker 6: Of course we will. You're going to be famous.
Speaker 4: You'll write a play or a novel or something, and
Speaker 4: everybody who thinks you're a genius. We'll have a beautiful
Speaker 4: apartment and dozens of wonderful children, and I'll have a mink.
Speaker 7: Coach and a convertible on a limousine and six servants.
Speaker 5: And you'll see, oh, you just prejudiced, Kathy.
Speaker 6: Well, aren't you the youngest assistant professor on the.
Speaker 7: Staff and the lowest paid money? How can you say
Speaker 7: money like that? Still talk about mink coach.
Speaker 6: It's a woman's privilege to be in consist.
Speaker 8: That's my girl, Thank you, professor.
Speaker 9: Oh Kathy, I.
Speaker 5: Wish we could get married, do things right, go to
Speaker 5: the theater and never read hamburgers.
Speaker 6: You read hamburgers.
Speaker 4: What a horrible thought, hamburgers.
Speaker 7: I wonder what mister Slake will give me for dinner.
Speaker 6: You are to remember everything.
Speaker 4: I want the complete details.
Speaker 7: Probably hamburgers served on solid gold.
Speaker 4: Plates and gold buns.
Speaker 6: I can see it all now.
Speaker 5: Gee, Honey, I wish you were coming. I hate to
Speaker 5: think of you going to dinner alone. I couldn't Slack
Speaker 5: have invited you. He knows we're engaged.
Speaker 6: He knows, Jerry, don't be silly. I'll be fine. Or
Speaker 6: did you send him a bill for the translation?
Speaker 8: Two hundred dollars?
Speaker 4: Wonderful? Maybe he'll give you the check tonight. Maybe he
Speaker 4: will be nice to him, Sherry, be real polite and
Speaker 4: let him leave the talking and well, don't talk about
Speaker 4: soaking the rich or anything. Just be real nice and normal.
Speaker 1: I will.
Speaker 6: A man like John Slake has influenced you.
Speaker 4: Never can tell what will happen if.
Speaker 6: He takes a liking toe.
Speaker 7: I promise I'll be on my very best behavior.
Speaker 5: This is the place here, this big gray one, all
Speaker 5: five stories of him.
Speaker 6: He lives all alone in that roomy isn't it.
Speaker 4: You should have charged him more two hundred dollars.
Speaker 6: You should have charged him two thousands.
Speaker 5: I wish you were coming, Kathy, it'd be such a
Speaker 5: wonderful dinner.
Speaker 4: Don't be silly, Sherry. I don't mind it. Bee and anyway,
Speaker 4: he wanted it to be just the two of you.
Speaker 4: Maybe he's gonna all be on yob or something.
Speaker 8: Maybe.
Speaker 4: Well, bye, darlingell me when you get home.
Speaker 6: I will you better go in.
Speaker 4: It's after seven.
Speaker 8: Now where are you going to eat?
Speaker 6: You stop worrying out where I'm going to eat?
Speaker 8: Do you need any money?
Speaker 6: No? I five or six dollars? Now?
Speaker 10: Go on?
Speaker 4: Why, Sherry Latimer, I believe you're nervous.
Speaker 7: I don't go to dinner with millionaires every night.
Speaker 6: Well, just be perfectly natural. You look fine. That's a
Speaker 6: nice suit and you've just had a haircut.
Speaker 4: Go on, Darling, you'll be late if.
Speaker 6: You don't forget and remember, be on your best.
Speaker 11: I will bye, Keathy.
Speaker 7: More coffee, Sherry, No thanks, mister slake A liquor? Oh nothing,
Speaker 7: thank you. It was a wonderful dinner.
Speaker 10: I'm glad you enjoyed it.
Speaker 5: This is a wonderful room. I think it's even more
Speaker 5: attractive than the dining room.
Speaker 10: But a dining room should be simple, Sherry. A man
Speaker 10: can't enjoy art if his mouth is full. This room,
Speaker 10: of course, is different, is it where I spend most
Speaker 10: of my time? I see you're admiring the fireplace. It's
Speaker 10: magnificent sixteenth century Italian. I had it chipped block by
Speaker 10: block from Rome. Oh. By the way, speaking of sixteenth
Speaker 10: century Italian, I have your check here for the Greek
Speaker 10: ardiny fans place.
Speaker 7: So there's no rush, mister Slake anytime, not at all.
Speaker 10: I made it out before you arrived.
Speaker 7: Hey, I thank you, thank you very much.
Speaker 10: He did a splendid job. Splendid. You're the best man
Speaker 10: in the country on Italian translation.
Speaker 7: Thank you, you're very kind.
Speaker 10: Tell me, Sherry, what did you think of the little
Speaker 10: experiment of Prince Alessandro? Which one but you remember the
Speaker 10: chapter Marry the versions of Prince Alessandro.
Speaker 8: I ought to took me long enough to translate it.
Speaker 10: What did you think of Alessandro?
Speaker 8: Oh?
Speaker 7: I thought him an animal, an incredibly cruel animal.
Speaker 12: Really, I thought it rather intrieding a very clever way
Speaker 12: of proving that there are but three elemental emotions.
Speaker 10: I see you're admiring my heart. Yes, do you play
Speaker 10: a little music seems to release me from the dull,
Speaker 10: vulgarity of life. You know, there's a certain spirituality about
Speaker 10: the heart. It seems to embody every how should I
Speaker 10: see see it? There's such an esthetic feel about it.
Speaker 10: Sometimes I sit here all night and just play that
Speaker 10: very set. You play beautifully, en amateur, but I enjoy it,
Speaker 10: you know Brown, No, I don't. And he wrote so
Speaker 10: little for the half. He's my favorite composer.
Speaker 8: I'm afraid I'm not very musical.
Speaker 10: So you consider Prince Alessandra an animal? Do you? You're
Speaker 10: very young?
Speaker 1: Serry.
Speaker 10: As a matter of fact, I was going to suggest
Speaker 10: to you that, oh no, no, I suppose we wouldn't
Speaker 10: considered it.
Speaker 8: Consider what.
Speaker 10: I understand. You're engaged to a miss Vain, Catherine Vaine.
Speaker 7: Yes, she works in the Secretary's office of the university.
Speaker 10: I'll in love with her.
Speaker 13: Very much, planning on getting married.
Speaker 8: As soon as we can afford it.
Speaker 10: But you can't afford it now.
Speaker 8: Well, assistant professors aren't too well paid.
Speaker 9: Now, I suppose.
Speaker 5: What did you mean when you said I wouldn't consider something, Cherry.
Speaker 10: I'm a very rich man. I've literally so much money.
Speaker 10: I don't know what to do with it. I'm fifty
Speaker 10: four now, and I've experienced everything. I've been everywhere, I've
Speaker 10: seen everything, I've done everything. Sometimes I get very bored,
Speaker 10: very bored. Indeed, I thought maybe that perhaps you might
Speaker 10: be interested in giving me a little amusement and at
Speaker 10: the same time earning yourself some money. I thought that
Speaker 10: perhaps you No, it's ridiculous.
Speaker 8: What's ridiculous?
Speaker 10: Huh? When I'm intrigued with Alessandra's experiments, I'd love to
Speaker 10: repeat it.
Speaker 5: You're not serious, Yes, yes, I'm serious, but well I
Speaker 5: don't understand.
Speaker 10: I'd pay you twenty.
Speaker 11: Five thousand dollars not.
Speaker 10: To go exactly now. Look, I thought it all out
Speaker 10: this afternoon. There's space on the fourth floor of this
Speaker 10: house is never used. Now, I would lock you in
Speaker 10: Miss Vane and adjoining room. See, I'd have a glass
Speaker 10: partition built between them so that you could see each
Speaker 10: other but not communicate, and I'd cut the time down
Speaker 10: to seven days. After all, neither you are Missday and
Speaker 10: have the physique of the sixteenth century attack.
Speaker 7: You're not actually suggesting that Kathy and I should, But
Speaker 7: of course, for.
Speaker 10: Twenty five thousand dollars, isn't this a puplod so sweeping,
Speaker 10: so sad? I wish i'd known Brown.
Speaker 7: I wish you'd leave that harp alone and tell me
Speaker 7: what's on your mind.
Speaker 10: Well, it's very simple. You and Miss Vane need money,
Speaker 10: or shall I say you'd like to have it? Sew?
Speaker 10: I'll pay you twenty five thousand dollars. You'll be locked
Speaker 10: in two rooms that are separated by a glass petition.
Speaker 10: You'll go each one into one of these rooms on oh,
Speaker 10: let's say, a Sunday at midnight, and until the following
Speaker 10: Sunday at midnight. You'll be given nothing to eat. Nothing.
Speaker 10: You'll be allowed plenty of water, and that's all. You'll
Speaker 10: starve yourself for seven days. And at the end of
Speaker 10: the week, on the second Sunday, at midnight, I shall
Speaker 10: raise the glass partition and place a thick slice of
Speaker 10: bread and butter exactly half way between you and Miss Vain.
Speaker 7: And pay us twenty five thousand dollars.
Speaker 10: Shall it not quite?
Speaker 8: You?
Speaker 6: See?
Speaker 10: I agree with Alessandro. There are just three elementals, dear
Speaker 10: eight and hunger. I believe that you are Miss Vain
Speaker 10: for all that you say you are in love. I
Speaker 10: believe that after seven days without food, you'd fall on
Speaker 10: each other like a couple of snarling animal You crazy,
Speaker 10: You're crazy. Nevertheless, I believe you'd cry each other to
Speaker 10: bits and your struggle for that one slice of bread.
Speaker 10: I believe you'd forget all about love and respect and tenderness.
Speaker 10: You'd be ruled by an elemental in this case, hunger. Now,
Speaker 10: of course, if I'm wrong, if you share the bread
Speaker 10: gently and tenderly, then i'd pay you twenty five thousand dollars.
Speaker 10: But if you perform as I expect, if you become
Speaker 10: animals instead of human beings, then you'd have to work
Speaker 10: for me for nothing for ten years. Thank goodness, I
Speaker 10: have my music to console me.
Speaker 7: Don't sit there staring at me, Sherry.
Speaker 8: I find it hard to believe that you're serious.
Speaker 10: Oh, I'm perfectly serious.
Speaker 6: But it's insane.
Speaker 10: It's impossible. I look lots of health crank diet for
Speaker 10: longer than seven days, you say, in love with his skirls.
Speaker 5: Mistake, Yes, but I would never subject it to it
Speaker 5: to such a monstrous experiment once she had the courage.
Speaker 10: Of your convictions. You believe that love is stronger than hunger,
Speaker 10: don't you?
Speaker 12: Yes?
Speaker 7: But that isn't the same thing.
Speaker 10: You're young, you're an idealist. You believe that love is
Speaker 10: a big, golden, wonderful thing. Well, I say that it
Speaker 10: isn't I say that after seven days of not eating.
Speaker 8: You would hate Catherine Lee you tear.
Speaker 10: The bread flummer and stopping in the other.
Speaker 8: Will you please leave.
Speaker 10: That harple over? I enjoy it so much myself. I
Speaker 10: forget sometimes that others don't appreciate.
Speaker 7: You could never ask a woman too. Will you say
Speaker 7: you're in love?
Speaker 10: Don't you?
Speaker 8: Well, of course we're in love.
Speaker 10: You could get married at once. No more clubbing, no
Speaker 10: more tutoring at night. Miss Vain could resign her position.
Speaker 12: You have a nice little house, a car, all in
Speaker 12: exchange for seven days.
Speaker 10: Of not eating. Why don't you talk it over in
Speaker 10: this vein? Tell her how easily you can earn twenty
Speaker 10: five thousand dollars. Why don't you erry another pastry? And
Speaker 10: Miss Vain remember you will be eating again until next Sunday.
Speaker 6: I couldn't.
Speaker 4: I couldn't possibly eat another mouthful.
Speaker 10: Well, since it's almost midnight, shall we go upstairs?
Speaker 8: We can't do it, We can't do it.
Speaker 4: Catch cherry sherry, please, it's so easy. No more pinching,
Speaker 4: no more going without things. All we have to do
Speaker 4: is lie quietly on a couch for a week without eating.
Speaker 10: You want to call it off?
Speaker 6: Of course he doesn't want to call it off. Besides,
Speaker 6: we've signed all those papers. I don't know if they're
Speaker 6: legal or not.
Speaker 10: Oh, my dear miss Vane, you wander restimate me. I
Speaker 10: had my lawyers draw up the agreement very carefully. Of course,
Speaker 10: we can't come out and say that Sherry was to
Speaker 10: be my slave for ten years.
Speaker 1: But don't worry.
Speaker 10: I'm quite sure I'll collect my payment if you're so
Speaker 10: unfortunate as to lose the wager. Well, now I've had
Speaker 10: workmen in and rooms are all ready. We replaced the
Speaker 10: wall between the two bedrooms with a full sheet of glass.
Speaker 10: You'll each have a lamp and the Bible. I'm afraid
Speaker 10: I'll have to forbid you soap and toothpaste.
Speaker 7: Are you afraid we might eat the soap?
Speaker 6: Yourem I refuse to believe it. It's so difficult, Kathy.
Speaker 8: You don't know.
Speaker 7: I was hungry in the war. I know what it's like.
Speaker 8: You get crazed and desperate.
Speaker 6: I'm sure we can do it. I'm positive. Don't look
Speaker 6: so bleak, Sherry.
Speaker 4: Please think of all the things we can do with
Speaker 4: twenty five thousand dollars.
Speaker 6: Oh, it's wonderful.
Speaker 4: We can have a home, a nice little house somewhere
Speaker 4: and furnish it, furnish it attractive.
Speaker 10: Two minutes to twelve, shall we go up?
Speaker 4: Come on, Sherry, we can't be ruled out for a
Speaker 4: late start.
Speaker 10: Come on, Erry. This is your room exactly the same,
Speaker 10: except that your wallpaper has bluebirds, whereas miss Dains has daisies.
Speaker 2: Hello, Kathy, Oh.
Speaker 10: She can't hear you. That last petition between you was
Speaker 10: an inch thick.
Speaker 8: Oh like, she's so tiny, such.
Speaker 7: A little bit of a thing. I like her.
Speaker 10: When the nights are on, in both room as you
Speaker 10: can see each other very well. Looks now. I shall
Speaker 10: visit you once every twenty four hours. There are glasses
Speaker 10: in the bathroom there. Drink as much water as you wish.
Speaker 10: And at twelve o'clock next Sunday night, this partition will rise.
Speaker 10: I had it especially installed, as I told you, so.
Speaker 10: At next Sunday midnight, I shall bring you one thick
Speaker 10: slice of bread and butter. You'll be exposed to the
Speaker 10: food for twenty minutes. I shall take pictures.
Speaker 5: If God can possibly condone such idiotic treatment of the
Speaker 5: human body, I'm sure he'll help us.
Speaker 10: Oh that's very good, Sadry. I think you're going to
Speaker 10: need help. Is there anything else?
Speaker 8: I don't think so.
Speaker 10: Miss Vain looks very lovely, Sherry. He's the most charming girl.
Speaker 10: I don't wonder that you're in love with her. But
Speaker 10: remember there are just the three elemental far eight, hunger,
Speaker 10: and now of course that you've lost your wage.
Speaker 7: Hecklingus wasn't part of the market.
Speaker 10: I can see you now clawing at each other like Anna,
Speaker 10: Oh stop it, stop it, I'll say. By the way,
Speaker 10: say I ran across.
Speaker 13: The most tantasizing thing today are sort of hop concerto.
Speaker 10: Written by a chap called Malmeck Maddam Malneck. It's called
Speaker 10: hap Fantasy and jazz Excu.
Speaker 7: Will you stop making small talk and leave me alone?
Speaker 10: All right, Jerry, I'll leave you until tomorrow night.
Speaker 5: Twenty one bluebirds pasted to the wall. Twenty one bluebirds
Speaker 5: a B bass he called the ef aall twenty one
Speaker 5: bluebirds trying not to fall. I let's see twenty one
Speaker 5: bluebirds paste it to the wall. Twenty one bluebirds trying
Speaker 5: not to fall, bluebirds happy in their little trees. Something
Speaker 5: something something smiling at the bees.
Speaker 10: Well, the first twenty four hours are over, Sherry.
Speaker 8: How do you feel fine?
Speaker 10: Not too uncomfortable? No, Kathy's fine.
Speaker 9: Good, not very talkative out it?
Speaker 8: That wasn't in the bargain.
Speaker 10: All right, then I'll leave you.
Speaker 7: Are you enjoying yourself immensely?
Speaker 10: I can hardly wait? You see, the first twenty four
Speaker 10: hours are easy, so what the second? The third day
Speaker 10: gets worse, and the fourth and fifth that's when the fun. Hello, Sherry,
Speaker 10: how are you you sto? You were in here yesterday?
Speaker 8: You deliberately saw my pipe?
Speaker 10: Sorry, Sherry, we're getting a little asthetica. The Bible is
Speaker 10: on the floor right in fourth.
Speaker 9: What that?
Speaker 10: Why are you pointing at miss Vain?
Speaker 8: She has moved.
Speaker 10: She's nonsense. She's asleep. I can see her breathing from here.
Speaker 10: Say better, get hold of yourself.
Speaker 12: This is only the third day.
Speaker 10: Good evening, Cherry, Cherry, wakem that's is how are you feeling?
Speaker 10: You know you're an admirable guest. You and miss Vain,
Speaker 10: you make so little demand on one's hospitality. I've just
Speaker 10: been in to see her. She sends you a message.
Speaker 10: Do you want to hear? Ah? I see my elemental
Speaker 10: has begun to touch you. You're not so interested in
Speaker 10: miss Vain?
Speaker 8: Now? Why can't you leave me?
Speaker 10: Why can't you leave us alone?
Speaker 8: People aren't supposed to tortures.
Speaker 10: My dear father, I'm interested, Believe me.
Speaker 13: I worry about your booth. I thought of you tonight
Speaker 13: at dinner. The bisk and a trifle, too much whipped
Speaker 13: cream for my taste.
Speaker 10: But the roast was the election, rich red, succulent roe.
Speaker 10: That wonderful, delicate shade of drink. It cut like, shut up,
Speaker 10: shut up?
Speaker 12: What's another sherry?
Speaker 10: You were ever getting a feeling? But you shouldn't. This
Speaker 10: is only the fourth day.

Speaker 8: They're taking over?
Speaker 10: What fire?
Speaker 8: Please Heaven.

Speaker 10: Oh, I wouldn't do that. I wouldn't eat paper. That'll
Speaker 10: make you will much longer, much longer. Don't you wish

Speaker 10: stop these elevating hysterics. Look at miss Vanes. He just
Speaker 10: lies there on the couch. She doesn't prance around the
Speaker 10: room tearing the pages from her Bible. By the way,

Speaker 10: foot away from Catherine Vane. There's just a sheet of
Speaker 10: plate glass between you. Remember I had the glass petition installed.

Speaker 10: close to you, that model the foot away. She wants
Speaker 10: the bread to Sherry. She wants to, but she's going
Speaker 10: to steal it from you. She thinks it's hers. Perhaps
Speaker 10: perhaps you'd better kill her, Sherry, Yes, well, then slip
Speaker 10: down off the couch.
