1. Third from the Sun First Aired: 8 January 1960

2. English Subtitles by Pandorafilm - Heerlen

3. There is a fifth dimension. Beyond that which is known to man.

4. It is a dimension as vast as space.

5. And as timeless as infinity.

6. It is the middle ground between light and shadow...

7. between science and superstition.

8. And it lies between the pit of man's fears...

9. and the summit of his knowledge.

10. This is the dimension of imagination.

11. It is an area which we call: The Twilight Zone.

12. Parkinson, chemical warfare.

13. Amberley, hydrogen armaments.

14. Mills, germ warfare research.

15. Sturka, hydrogen armament. You boys are pretty busy up there.

16. Very busy.

17. Hold the light, will you, Sturka?

18. Long days, huh? -Long days.

19. Your department is going full blast, isn't it?

20. It's really coming, boy. And a big one, too.

21. While we're talking here, the military is getting all set.

22. Got it all mapped out, I bet.

23. Talk is 48 hours. You wait and see if I'm not right.

24. 48 hours, we'll have them aloft. Then, whoosh, up, over and whammo.

25. There goes the enemy. Obliterated, finished.

26. What are they doing in the meantime? -What do you mean?

27. Probably retaliating the best way they can.

28. It's a big waste of time. We get the first licks.

29. So they can't do much. -They can go whoosh, up and whammo.

30. Absolutely. But not so many. Not so skillfully carried out.

31. So instead of losing 50 million people, we lose only 35?

32. You a defeatist, Sturka? That's dangerous thinking.

33. You better mind what you say. -And what I think, too, huh?

34. Yeah. And what you think.

35. Good night, Carling. See you tomorrow.

36. Quitting time at the plant. Time for supper now.

37. Time for families. Time for a cool drink on a porch.

38. Time for the rustle of leaf-laden trees that screen out the moon.

39. And underneath it all, behind the eyes of the men...

40. hanging invisible over the summer night...

41. is a horror without words. For this is the stillness before a storm.

42. This is the eve of the end.

43. Hello, dad. -Hello, baby. Where's your mom?

44. She's out in the back trying to urge the radishes out of the ground.

45. No, not before we have our dance.

46. Some other time, honey.

47. Dad? -What, Jody?

48. What's the matter? -Nothing serious.

49. Just feeling my years, I guess.

50. You, my darling, your beautiful face...

51. and your maturing ways. I suddenly see that my youth is in the attic.

52. Spread out over a few photo albums. -Is that all?

53. Is that all? That's quite enough.

54. Dad? Don't you like your job? Is that the problem?

55. It's all right. It's a job.

56. I mean just having to work on the kind of things that you do.

57. Fever bombs and hydrogen bombs and gas and things like that.

58. No, I'm just a cog in a wheel, Jody.

59. I mean, look at it this way. In one bomb there are a thousand pieces.

60. And every piece requires a team of 50, 60, 70 people.

61. Looking at it like that, I'm not quite as responsible as if I...

62. Hello, darling.

63. Everyone I've talked to lately they've been noticing it.

64. Noticing what, Jo? -That something's wrong.

65. That something's... Something's in the air.

66. That something's going to happen.

67. And everybody's afraid. Everyone, dad, why?

68. People are afraid because they make themselves afraid.

69. They're afraid because they subvert every great thing ever discovered.

70. Every fine idea ever thought, every marvelous invention ever conceived.

71. They subvert it, Jody. They make it crooked and devious.

72. And far too late they ask themselves the question: Why?

73. And then it's too late. Everything is too late!

74. Invite Jerry Riden and his wife over tonight, will you, Eve?

75. We'll have some cards or something.

76. Isn't Jerry out of town? Isn't he testing some sort of aircraft?

77. No, he came back this morning.

78. I told him we'd phone them.

79. You'll be there, Jody? He'd like to see you.

80. I'm sorry, I can't. I've, I've got a date.

81. Maybe I could get in a little early. -Break it. I'd like you home tonight.

82. But dad, I can't... All right, dad.

83. Jerry has some very interesting stories. He flies those...

84. You'd might like to have some cards. To take your mind off things.

85. Bill? What's happening?

86. What do you feel is happening?

87. I have so much fear inside me I... I can't give it words.

88. It's too late for subterfuge now. It's too late for anything.

89. It's coming. It's coming probably within 48 hours.

90. Will it be bad? -It'll be a holocaust.

91. It'll be the end of everything. People, ideas. It'll be wiped out.

92. In 48 hours? -Maybe sooner.

93. What can we do? -Sit down, I tell you something.

94. We're leaving. You and Jody and I. And Jerry and Ann.

95. We're leaving tonight. -Leaving for where?

96. I can't tell. I can only tell you that before 1:00 tonight...

97. we've got to be out of here and gone, and no one is to know.

98. Not neighbors, not relatives. Not even Jody.

99. We won't be able to tell her until we're already on our way.

100. Jerry Riden is down here. -I'm coming down, Jody.

101. Why is he here? -That's what I want to find out.

102. You better tell funny stories tonight. I had to break a date.

103. You've come to tell me that you won't be able to make it for cards.

104. No, it's high stakes tonight. I'm very lucky at cards lately.

105. I just dropped by to talk to you about that...

106. Your watch is stopped again? Probably that mainspring.

107. It looked like it had some rust on it.

108. Here, let me see it.

109. Now, let's see what we can do. -Bill, we've got to change our plan.

110. Now, there's your trouble, Jerry. Tell me, what's happened?

111. They've put a different guard on the ship.

112. The one I've paid gets off at 11:00.

113. Then we have to leave before 11:00. -The field is crowded with men then.

114. We're only your relatives with permission to look at the ship.

115. That's what our credentials will show. -The fewer who know, the better.

116. Does Ann know, yet? -Only that we've got to get out.

117. I didn't tell her where or when. What about Eve and Jody?

118. Eve knows. Jody will stay home. She thinks you're coming to play cards.

119. You can come around 7:00, can't you? -Yeah.

120. I think that that does it. It's the mainspring.

121. Have it checked by a jeweler in a month or so. It has still some rust.

122. Thanks, Bill, very much.

123. Sixteen.

124. Four.

125. Twelve.

126. Eight.

127. Seven. -You are lucky tonight.

128. Lemonade and homemade cake, everyone? -Sounds wonderful.

129. I'll get a tray. Come along, young woman, lend a hand.

130. I know our destination now. There. -How far?

131. Eleven million miles.

132. In a ship we don't even know will leave the atmosphere.

133. Or whether its pilot can either take off or get you down in one piece.

134. That's the risk, Bill. -It's a good risk.

135. When you consider the alternatives. -Now, this place we're going to.

136. It's populated. It has people on it. We've picked up radio waves.

137. Even some snatches of a language not dissimilar to ours.

138. We've been able to decipher a lot of it.

139. With a little help, some breaks and God, we might even make it there.

140. Bill, Mr Carling is here.

141. A little cards tonight, Sturka? -A little cards, Carling.

142. We're just about to cut into a cake. You care to join us?

143. Just a little lemonade for me.

144. I was just telling your wife that she makes wonderful lemonade.

145. Hot night, too, huh?

146. This is a night for a front porch, or sleep.

147. But nothing else. -How right you are.

148. We'll be leaving in a minute. I've been testing an aircraft.

149. Haven't had much sleep the last. -Yes, I know the aircraft.

150. They say it's capable of leaving our atmosphere.

151. Talk is it could go to another planet if the right man flew her.

152. Not for a while, yet. It needs a lot more testing.

153. May I have a cigarette?

154. The way I figure it, Mr. Sturka, you owe us a little money here.

155. Marvelous scientist. Very bad card player.

156. I would've guessed that Sturka here was a good gambler.

157. I'd guess he'd gamble on most anything.

158. Here we are. Lemonade, everyone? -I'll cut the cake, Eve.

159. You're a little nervous, Mrs Sturka.

160. You're very nervous.

161. You've lost quite a bit according to this, Sturka.

162. We won't settle tonight.

163. Next week we'll give you another chance.

164. Next week? You do plan ahead.

165. You plan way ahead.

166. A week?

167. A lot can happen in a week. A lot can happen in 48 hours.

168. I'll get on home now. I like to take a walk on warm evenings.

169. It makes me sleep better. -I'll see you to the door.

170. I'll probably see you at the office tomorrow.

171. Yes, of course.

172. Pretty night.

173. Clear as a bell. Nothing but stars.

174. You ever think, that there may be people on those stars, too?

175. Maybe people just like us.

176. That thought has crossed my mind.

177. Ever think maybe you'd be happier on one of those than you are here?

178. That crossed my mind, too.

179. Yeah, I have no doubt.

180. The time is now. I've got something to tell you. We're leaving tonight.

181. There's a ship at the airfield. We're all gonna drive over there now.

182. We've bribed a lot of people and the ship's loaded with supplies.

183. You've been planning this! -For three months now.

184. But tonight has to be it, Jody. Tonight's the last chance.

185. We've got to leave here tonight. -Why tonight, Jerry?

186. Because this world as we know it won't exist much longer.

187. It's about to blow itself up and that may happen by morning.

188. In the morning where will we be?

189. We'll be out in space, Jody. Far out.

190. All right, I'll back the car out of the garage. Ann, is your bag ready?

191. It's in our bedroom. I'll go get it.

192. Bill.

193. I've got to answer it.

194. Yes?

195. Tonight? Well, I'm in bed.

196. My division head. They're working tonight. They're sending a car over.

197. Then we have to get out right now. -I'll get our bags.

198. This is silly, isn't it? We aren't ever coming back here again.

199. That's it. There it is.

200. Mother, it's going to be all right, isn't it?

201. Is that our contact? -Yeah, that's him.

202. Eve, flash the lights, just once.

203. Good evening, Sturka. You're a long way from home.

204. You two stand there very quietly.

205. And breathe through your nose. Very, very quietly.

206. Get back in the car, please.

207. Would you two get in the front seat, please?

208. Would you three ladies mind getting out?

209. These two gentlemen and I have an engagement with the authorities.

210. The gate.

211. Unauthorized vehicle on field!

212. Guard unit seven, approach unauthorized vehicle and halt it.

213. Everything all right?

214. 12:00 and all is well.

215. The stars look far away. -They are far away.

216. But the one we want, that's not so far, Bill.

217. See it there? It's the shiny one. The bright one over on the right.

218. It's hard to believe there are people like us there.

219. People like us.

220. It's the third planet from the sun. It's called:

221. Earth. That's where we're going. To a place called Earth.

222. Behind a ship heading into space is a planet on the verge of suicide.

223. Ahead lies a place called Earth. The third planet from the sun.

224. For William Sturka and the men and women with him...

225. it's the eve of the beginning...

226. in the Twilight Zone.
