1. Faster than a speeding bullet.
Copy !req
2. More powerful than a locomotive.
Copy !req
3. Able to leap tall buildings
at a single bound.
Copy !req
4. - Look. Up in the sky.
- It's a bird.
Copy !req
5. - It's a plane.
- It's Superman.
Copy !req
6. Yes, it's Superman,
strange visitor from another planet...
Copy !req
7. who came to Earth with powers
and abilities...
Copy !req
8. far beyond those of mortal men.
Copy !req
9. Superman, who can change
the course of mighty rivers...
Copy !req
10. bend steel in his bare hands...
Copy !req
11. and who. Disguised as Clark Kent...
Copy !req
12. —mild-mannered reporter
for a great metropolitan newspaper.
Copy !req
13. fights a never-ending battle for truth,
justice and the American way.
Copy !req
14. And now, another exciting episode
in the Adventures oi Superman.
Copy !req
15. Good evening. My friends.
Copy !req
16. This is a sad occasion
for one of you and for me.
Copy !req
17. My third death figure
has been completed.
Copy !req
18. It now becomes my unhappy duty...
Copy !req
19. to reveal to you the person...
Copy !req
20. who, within the next six months, will die.
Copy !req
21. Curtain.
Copy !req
22. Paper. Daily Planet.
Read all about it. Paper. Mister?
Copy !req
23. I got the Daily Planet.
Paper. Read all about it.
Copy !req
24. I knew John Hurley well.
Copy !req
25. He was happy. Healthy. Successful.
He had no reason to kill himself.
Copy !req
26. Neither did Herbert Fairweather
or John Martin.
Copy !req
27. - Who?
- The two others who committed suicide.
Copy !req
28. Clark thinks Madame Selena
had something to do with it.
Copy !req
29. - Yeah. She predicted all their deaths.
- Kent. I'm surprised at you.
Copy !req
30. Do you actually believe that fortune-teller
has supernatural powers?
Copy !req
31. - No. chief. Of course not. But—
- It's an old charlatan's trick.
Copy !req
32. They make thousands of predictions.
and if one happens to come true...
Copy !req
33. - ... superstitious idiots are taken in.
- That's right.
Copy !req
34. But Selena made only three predictions.
Copy !req
35. She might've made 300. We only heard
about the ones that came true.
Copy !req
36. No. chief. I've investigated this—
Copy !req
37. So have the police. And they
gave her a clean bill of health.
Copy !req
38. - I'd still like to talk to her.
- Go ahead. Talk is cheap.
Copy !req
39. - It'll go.
- I thought you didn't see anything in this.
Copy !req
40. But you do.
so I'll just go along for the ride.
Copy !req
41. We'd like to see
Madame Selena, please.
Copy !req
42. I'm Clark Kent. And this is Miss Lane.
We're both from the Daily Planet.
Copy !req
43. If you will wait here. I'll find out
whether Madame can see you now.
Copy !req
44. Thank you.
Copy !req
45. Well. Let's look around.
Copy !req
46. I am Herbert Fairweather.
Copy !req
47. I died by my own hand
in January of 1949...
Copy !req
48. four months after Madame Selena
predicted my death.
Copy !req
49. I am John Martin.
Copy !req
50. I departed this life
by drowning in April 1951...
Copy !req
51. —exactly six months to the day.
Copy !req
52. —following Madame Selena 's
death prediction.
Copy !req
53. Clark. This is weird.
Copy !req
54. The Madame puts on
quite a show. Doesn't she?
Copy !req
55. I am Dr. John Hurley.
Copy !req
56. That's enough.
Copy !req
57. I know they're just recorded voices.
but it's a little too gruesome for my taste.
Copy !req
58. Madame Selena will see you now.
Copy !req
59. Miss Lane and Mr. Kent. My dear.
Copy !req
60. - How do you do?
- Please sit down.
Copy !req
61. Thank you.
Copy !req
62. - Tea?
- No. I don't care for any. Thanks.
Copy !req
63. At first. I was not going to see you.
Copy !req
64. Your newspaper called me
a fortune-teller.
Copy !req
65. Well. Aren't you?
Copy !req
66. lam not.
Copy !req
67. Sorry. I didn't mean to offend you.
Copy !req
68. Forgive me.
Copy !req
69. You come to visit me. and I am rude.
How may I serve you?
Copy !req
70. We'd like to learn more about
your power to predict death.
Copy !req
71. A vision comes to me.
Copy !req
72. I hear a voice.
Copy !req
73. It says.
“Create a wax portrait of this one.
Copy !req
74. Within six months. He will die.“
Copy !req
75. About those three that did die—
Copy !req
76. Within six months. As I predicted.
Copy !req
77. Yes. They were all quite famous.
Copy !req
78. One was an ex-mayor of Metropolis.
one was a radio commentator...
Copy !req
79. one of them was a psychiatrist.
Did you know them all quite well?
Copy !req
80. On the contrary.
I never saw them before.
Copy !req
81. And about this voice...
Copy !req
82. It comes to me as from another world.
Copy !req
83. Not from a phonograph record
like the voices in your Hall of Death?
Copy !req
84. Any further questions?
Copy !req
85. Just one more. If you don't mind.
Have you received any death visions lately?
Copy !req
86. Do you expect to?
Copy !req
87. How can I tell?
Copy !req
88. Well. If you can't. Who can?
Copy !req
89. Should I receive a command
to make another death figure...
Copy !req
90. I will invite you
to the unveiling. Mr. Kent.
Copy !req
91. Thank you.
Copy !req
92. And you. Miss Lane.
Copy !req
93. Thank you so much.
Copy !req
94. - So nice of you to visit me.
- Nice of you to see us.
Copy !req
95. - Goodbye.
- Goodbye.
Copy !req
96. You never give up. do you?
Copy !req
97. Listen to this. The three people
who apparently committed suicide...
Copy !req
98. were almost the same height.
around 5-feet-8.
Copy !req
99. And they all weighed
close to 150 pounds.
Copy !req
100. - What does that prove?
- I'm not sure yet. But I have an idea.
Copy !req
101. Here you are. Kids.
Copy !req
102. Read them and weep. I got one too.
Copy !req
103. So Madame Selena had another vision.
Copy !req
104. - You know what this means. Don't you?
- No. what?
Copy !req
105. It could be one of us.
Copy !req
106. Madame Selena's making her entrance.
Copy !req
107. I guess the show's about to start.
Copy !req
108. I have asked you here...
Copy !req
109. representatives of the press
and industry...
Copy !req
110. the arts and sciences...
Copy !req
111. to witness an occult demonstration.
Copy !req
112. Recently. I received a vision...
Copy !req
113. and a voice from the beyond
commanded me...
Copy !req
114. to create a death figure.
Copy !req
115. I obeyed the command.
Copy !req
116. It now becomes my unhappy duty...
Copy !req
117. to reveal the figure of the one...
Copy !req
118. who will meet death...
Copy !req
119. within the next six months.
Copy !req
120. Clark. What's the matter with you?
Copy !req
121. Curtain.
Copy !req
122. Chief. It's you.
Copy !req
123. What kind of nonsense is this?
Copy !req
124. - Don't worry. Chief.
- Who's worried?
Copy !req
125. It's ridiculous. Utter nonsense.
Copy !req
126. And I'll tell that woman so.
Copy !req
127. - I'm sorry. My friend.
- And you're gonna be a lot sorrier.
Copy !req
128. I don't like practical jokes.
Copy !req
129. Unfortunately for you. It's not a joke.
Copy !req
130. It's a farce. And. Madame.
you are a fraud.
Copy !req
131. - Chief. Wait a minute.
- You keep out of this.
Copy !req
132. Before my paper gets through with you.
Madame. You're gonna be run out of town.
Copy !req
133. Come on. Kent. Lois.
Copy !req
134. Let's get out of here.
Copy !req
135. Me have a bodyguard?
Are you crazy?
Copy !req
136. Why don't you play it safe.
Copy !req
137. Look. I don't for a moment
believe in her clairvoyant powers...
Copy !req
138. but you must admit
her predictions did come true.
Copy !req
139. - Maybe Clark's right, chief.
- For the last time...
Copy !req
140. I am not going to jump
into Metropolis Harbor.
Copy !req
141. I am not going to have a bodyguard.
and that's final!
Copy !req
142. - Hello?
- Kent. This is Inspector Henderson.
Copy !req
143. Pick up Miss Lane and get down
to headquarters right away.
Copy !req
144. Something's happened.
Copy !req
145. Oh. Clark.
Copy !req
146. White's. Aren't they?
Copy !req
147. Yes.
Copy !req
148. Inspector. I just can't believe it.
Copy !req
149. Well. The clerk at the newspaper club
said he saw him leave just after 2 a.m.
Copy !req
150. - Said he looked kind of wild or drunk.
- Drunk?
Copy !req
151. Perry White was never drunk
a day in his life.
Copy !req
152. People saw him
staggering down the street.
Copy !req
153. They identified him from photographs.
Copy !req
154. And the patrolman on the waterfront
saw him jump off the pier.
Copy !req
155. It isn't true. Clark. It just can't be true.
The chief wouldn't commit suicide.
Copy !req
156. Of course he wouldn't.
Come on. I'll drive you home.
Copy !req
157. It'll see you later.
Copy !req
158. I've been trying to write
the chiefs obituary—
Copy !req
159. I know. I've been thinking.
Copy !req
160. All the people Madame Selena predicted
would die jumped off the same pier.
Copy !req
161. None of their bodies were ever recovered.
Copy !req
162. - The tide carried them out to sea.
- Maybe. But you can't convince me...
Copy !req
163. that Selena and her husband
don't know more than they're telling.
Copy !req
164. Do you really think so. Clark?
Copy !req
165. It'll get it. It's probably for me.
Copy !req
166. Clark Kent speaking. Oh. yes. inspector.
Copy !req
167. Did you get—? Oh. you have?
Copy !req
168. Good. All right.
I'll meet you at the pier.
Copy !req
169. Inspector Henderson.
Copy !req
170. He's got some more information.
You wait here. I'll be right back.
Copy !req
171. Six o'clock. Closing time.
Copy !req
172. Everyone will have to leave. Please.
Copy !req
173. Andrew?
Copy !req
174. - Andrew?
- Yes. dear?
Copy !req
175. Help me out.
Copy !req
176. - Everybody gone?
- Yes. dear.
Copy !req
177. The private museum is doing very well.
We've room for three more.
Copy !req
178. - Selena. I wish—
- I know what you wish. Andrew.
Copy !req
179. Now. close it up and make me
some coffee.
Copy !req
180. - Lois.
- Chief.
Copy !req
181. Thank heaven you've come.
Get me out of here.
Copy !req
182. Well. How do you—?
Well. It's locked.
Copy !req
183. - Chief. How did you get here?
- That madwoman has the key.
Copy !req
184. Get Kent. Call the police.
Copy !req
185. Someone's down there. I say.
Copy !req
186. I don't see anyone.
Copy !req
187. I turned the light off. I know I did.
Copy !req
188. Look around quickly.
Copy !req
189. - There's no one down here.
- There is.
Copy !req
190. You can see for yourself. My dear.
there's no place for anyone to hide.
Copy !req
191. I know there's someone here.
Copy !req
192. Get the chloroform!
Copy !req
193. Let me go!
Copy !req
194. Pour it on there.
Copy !req
195. Now. look here. Inspector.
Copy !req
196. See there? Come here.
See along the top of the pilings?
Copy !req
197. - Yep.
- A man could easily pull himself...
Copy !req
198. up out of the water and hide there.
Copy !req
199. What are you getting at?
Copy !req
200. Andrew Dawn...
Copy !req
201. he's about the same build and height
as Perry White and those three others.
Copy !req
202. - Andrew Dawn? Who's he?
- Madame Selena's husband.
Copy !req
203. It's fantastic, but it just could be.
Copy !req
204. What could be?
Copy !req
205. Madame Selena's husband
impersonating them.
Copy !req
206. - If she made wax masks—
- What are you talking about?
Copy !req
207. - The wax museum. We better check it.
- We already have. Top to bottom.
Copy !req
208. - Let's go again.
- It's a waste of time.
Copy !req
209. - You're way off the beam.
- I don't think so.
Copy !req
210. And I'll tell you why as we go.
Come on.
Copy !req
211. Oh. all right.
Copy !req
212. Thought you had me trapped, huh?
Copy !req
213. Thought you were smarter than I.
Copy !req
214. Well. Look at you now.
Copy !req
215. You're a member
of my private wax museum...
Copy !req
216. and you'll stay there till you die.
Copy !req
217. Stop it.
Copy !req
218. Aren't they beautiful?
Copy !req
219. Stop it. I said.
Copy !req
220. My private museum.
Copy !req
221. Living wax figures.
Copy !req
222. Selena. Pull yourself together.
Copy !req
223. You're a mouse. A scared little mouse.
Copy !req
224. Look at me.
Copy !req
225. I've got everything
because I've got courage.
Copy !req
226. Money. Power.
Copy !req
227. Everyone fears me.
Copy !req
228. And do you know why?
Copy !req
229. Because they're afraid
I'll make a death figure of them.
Copy !req
230. Selena.
Copy !req
231. Selena.
Copy !req
232. There's someone at the door.
Copy !req
233. The police! Open up!
Copy !req
234. We're looking for some people.
Copy !req
235. People?
Copy !req
236. There are no people here.
only my wife and myself.
Copy !req
237. Why don't you have a look
at their private apartment.
Copy !req
238. Might as well.
Copy !req
239. This is ridiculous.
Copy !req
240. But I'll be happy
to show you our living quarters.
Copy !req
241. My wife is in there now.
Come this way. Please.
Copy !req
242. Go ahead. I'll be right along.
Copy !req
243. Kent.
Copy !req
244. What happened?
Copy !req
245. This is my private museum.
This is where I keep my masterpieces.
Copy !req
246. Who are you?
What are you doing here?
Copy !req
247. - It's Superman.
- How dare you?
Copy !req
248. This is private property!
Copy !req
249. Stop it. you'll mar my figures!
Copy !req
250. Andrew. Stop him!
Copy !req
251. I predicted you'd all die. And you will!
Copy !req
252. - Is she all right?
- Yeah. She's just drugged.
Copy !req
253. Extra. Extra! Paper! Extra!
Copy !req
254. Superman saves five in wax museum.
Paper. Mister?
Copy !req
255. All's well that ends well.
Copy !req
256. I've got a bump where Dawn knocked
me out before he took me to the museum.
Copy !req
257. Dawn and his wife will get
20 years for abduction.
Copy !req
258. - They must be out of their minds.
- Dawn isn't out of his mind.
Copy !req
259. I still can't believe it.
Abducting four people...
Copy !req
260. and making it look as though
they committed suicide...
Copy !req
261. when all the time. That awful woman
had them locked in her private waxworks.
Copy !req
262. Now. Kent had the answer.
That crazy Selena made masks...
Copy !req
263. of people she predicted would die.
and her husband impersonated them.
Copy !req
264. - Made it look like they committed suicide.
- But why?
Copy !req
265. Publicity.
She did a land-office business.
Copy !req
266. Well...
Copy !req
267. - Kent.
- Looks like a party.
Copy !req
268. What in blazes happened to you
at the museum?
Copy !req
269. - Who. me?
- Yeah. You just disappeared.
Copy !req
270. You know Clark. Inspector.
he's always disappearing.
Copy !req
271. It'll bet you were hiding
behind one of those wax figures.
Copy !req
272. Behind Superman. Chief.
Copy !req
