2. You're traveling
through another dimension
Copy !req
3. a dimension not only
of sight and sound, but of mind
Copy !req
4. a journey into a wondrous land
Copy !req
5. whose boundaries
are that of imagination.
Copy !req
6. That's the signpost up ahead.
Copy !req
7. Your next stop,
the twilight zone.
Copy !req
8. Good work, gentlemen.
Copy !req
9. Apples in the barrel.
Copy !req
10. Yeah, so far,
Copy !req
11. but we ain't
spent anything yet.
Copy !req
12. Yeah, you know
brooks is right.
Copy !req
13. $1 million worth
of gold bullion,
Copy !req
14. and I'm still
wearing coveralls,
Copy !req
15. and I got $1.20
in my pocket.
Copy !req
16. That's this year,
senor decruz.
Copy !req
17. Today, this,
but tomorrow...
Copy !req
18. tomorrow, gentlemen...
like croesus, midas
Copy !req
19. and all rolled
into one.
Copy !req
20. Man, you see that
train engineer
Copy !req
21. when he hit
them brakes?
Copy !req
22. He looked like
he thought
Copy !req
23. the world was
coming to an end.
Copy !req
24. Why not?
Copy !req
25. When I blow up tracks,
I blow up tracks.
Copy !req
26. Point out a foundry
for me, decruz,
Copy !req
27. I'll forge
you a medal.
Copy !req
28. Oh, come on, come on,
look out, look out.
Copy !req
29. Get out of the way.
Copy !req
30. What's your
trouble, brooks?
Copy !req
31. May we get to
business now?
Copy !req
32. Let's get the carts
Copy !req
33. and start
unloading.
Copy !req
34. Come on, come on.
Copy !req
35. Down.
Copy !req
36. Oh, man, you're
a heavy little thing.
Copy !req
37. Are there any more
at home like you?
Copy !req
38. All right, gentlemen,
procedure as follows:
Copy !req
39. The gold in the cave
Copy !req
40. then mr. Decruz will
destroy the vehicles.
Copy !req
41. Okay, buddy boy,
let's go.
Copy !req
42. Thepiece de
resistancenow.
Copy !req
43. The real culmination.
Copy !req
44. Ultimate ingenuity.
Copy !req
45. It is one thing,
gentlemen,
Copy !req
46. to stop a train on its way
from fort knox to los angeles
Copy !req
47. and steal its cargo.
Copy !req
48. It's another thing
to remain free to spend it.
Copy !req
49. And spend it
we shall.
Copy !req
50. Yeah, but when?
Copy !req
51. Don't you know, mr. Decruz?
Copy !req
52. I would have thought
Copy !req
53. that this aspect
of the plan
Copy !req
54. would be particularly
clear in your mind.
Copy !req
55. Maldito vidrio.
Copy !req
56. Rip van winkle.
Copy !req
57. That's what we are.
Copy !req
58. Four rip van winkles.
Copy !req
59. I'm not sure.
Copy !req
60. What are you not sure of,
mr. Decruz?
Copy !req
61. Just... lying down
in one of these...
Copy !req
62. these glass caskets
Copy !req
63. and getting put to sleep.
Copy !req
64. I like to know
what I'm doing.
Copy !req
65. You know what you're doing-
Copy !req
66. I've explained it
very precisely to you.
Copy !req
67. All four of us
will be placed
Copy !req
68. in a state of
suspended animation,
Copy !req
69. and when we wake up,
that's when we'll take our gold
Copy !req
70. and enjoy it.
Copy !req
71. I say everybody
takes his cut now
Copy !req
72. and takes his own chances.
Copy !req
73. What you say,
decruz-
Copy !req
74. but that ain't
what we agreed on.
Copy !req
75. We agreed we'd
stash the gold here
Copy !req
76. and then do whatever
farwell tells us to do.
Copy !req
77. So far he ain't
been wrong-
Copy !req
78. not about anything.
Copy !req
79. The train, the gold...
Copy !req
80. gas he used to put
Copy !req
81. a whole trainload
of people to sleep-
Copy !req
82. everything.
Copy !req
83. All we had to do was
Copy !req
84. step over a lot of
horizontal folks snoring.
Copy !req
85. Transfer a fortune
Copy !req
86. like it was
cotton candy.
Copy !req
87. Amen to that.
Copy !req
88. Amen to that,
sure.
Copy !req
89. But how about
to this?
Copy !req
90. None of you mind
being helpless
Copy !req
91. and... closed up in these?
Copy !req
92. No, mr. Decruz.
Copy !req
93. None of us mind.
Copy !req
94. How long, farwell?
Copy !req
95. How long?
Copy !req
96. I don't know exactly.
Copy !req
97. I can only surmise.
Copy !req
98. I would say that...
Copy !req
99. I would say
Copy !req
100. approximately
100 years
Copy !req
101. from today's date.
Copy !req
102. 100 years,
gentlemen,
Copy !req
103. and we shall walk
the earth again...
Copy !req
104. as rich men, however.
Copy !req
105. As extremely rich men.
Copy !req
106. 100 years.
Copy !req
107. Just like rip van winkle.
Copy !req
108. Introducing four experts
Copy !req
109. in the questionable
art of crime:
Copy !req
110. Mr. Farwell, expert on
noxious gases, former professor
Copy !req
111. with a doctorate in both
chemistry and physics;
Copy !req
112. mr. Erbie, expert in
mechanical engineering;
Copy !req
113. mr. Brooks, expert in
the use of firearms
Copy !req
114. and other weaponry;
Copy !req
115. and mr. Decruz,
expert in demolition
Copy !req
116. and various forms
of destruction.
Copy !req
117. The time is now
Copy !req
118. and the place is a mountain cave
in death valley, u.s.a.
Copy !req
119. In just a moment these four men
will utilize the services
Copy !req
120. of a truck placed in cosmoline
Copy !req
121. loaded with a hot heist, cooled
off by a century of sleep
Copy !req
122. and then take a drive
into the twilight zone.
Copy !req
123. All right, gentlemen.
Copy !req
124. First of all, I want to know
if you can hear me...
Copy !req
125. knock once on the side
as I call your name.
Copy !req
126. Decruz?
Copy !req
127. Brooks.
Copy !req
128. Erbie.
Copy !req
129. Now I'm going to give you,
in chronology,
Copy !req
130. precisely what will happen.
Copy !req
131. First,
you are to check your airlocks
Copy !req
132. located on your right.
Copy !req
133. See it there?
Copy !req
134. The red arrow
should be pointed
Copy !req
135. toward "closed and locked."
Copy !req
136. Now you are each to count ten,
very slowly.
Copy !req
137. When you come
to the end of the count,
Copy !req
138. reach down with your left hand,
Copy !req
139. there's a small
green button there.
Copy !req
140. See it?
Copy !req
141. You are to press
this button.
Copy !req
142. You will hear
a slight hissing sound.
Copy !req
143. This will be the gas
Copy !req
144. being measured
into the enclosures.
Copy !req
145. All right, gentlemen,
check your airlocks first.
Copy !req
146. Now begin to count
Copy !req
147. and on ten,
release the gas.
Copy !req
148. Good night, gentlemen.
Copy !req
149. Pleasant dreams.
Copy !req
150. Good sleep.
Copy !req
151. I'll see you
in the next century.
Copy !req
152. Next... century.
Copy !req
153. It didn't work.
Copy !req
154. It didn't...
Copy !req
155. we don't have any beards,
Copy !req
156. and our nails didn't grow.
Copy !req
157. Well, mr. Farwell,
Copy !req
158. with the big brain
and all the answers,
Copy !req
159. why didn't it work?
Copy !req
160. It must have worked.
Copy !req
161. It was foolproof.
Copy !req
162. All the body functions stopped.
Copy !req
163. There wouldn't be any growth
of beard or nails
Copy !req
164. or anything
else!
Copy !req
165. I tell you,
it worked.
Copy !req
166. Well, look.
Copy !req
167. The road's
still there.
Copy !req
168. It hasn't changed.
Copy !req
169. It hasn't changed
one bit!
Copy !req
170. Carajo.
Copy !req
171. Mastermind, big brain.
Copy !req
172. Instead of
a hundred years,
Copy !req
173. maybe it's an hour,
Copy !req
174. and so we're
still hot.
Copy !req
175. And all that gold in there
Copy !req
176. is just like
a lot garbage to us now
Copy !req
177. because everybody
and his brother
Copy !req
178. is going to be looking for it.
Copy !req
179. Erbie.
Copy !req
180. We forgot erbie.
Copy !req
181. This is what did it.
Copy !req
182. Must have fallen
from the top of the cave,
Copy !req
183. cracked the glass,
the gas escaped.
Copy !req
184. Mr. Erbie has proven my point,
however, gentlemen.
Copy !req
185. He's definitely
proven my point...
Copy !req
186. the hard way.
Copy !req
187. How... how long
would it take
Copy !req
188. for such a thing
to happen?
Copy !req
189. A year,
Copy !req
190. or a hundred years.
Copy !req
191. Chances are,
mr. Decruz,
Copy !req
192. that we're now
in the year 2061.
Copy !req
193. 2060...
Copy !req
194. wow.
Copy !req
195. Okay.
Copy !req
196. Now the next step, huh?
Copy !req
197. We load the gold
into the truck
Copy !req
198. and take it to the first city
we get to, huh?
Copy !req
199. And then we take
it to a fence
Copy !req
200. or melt it down
ourselves in some way.
Copy !req
201. That's the deal,
isn't it?
Copy !req
202. Why is it, mr. Decruz,
Copy !req
203. that greedy men
are the most dreamless,
Copy !req
204. least imaginative,
the stupidest?
Copy !req
205. Now, listen to me, farwell...
Copy !req
206. for the first
time in history
Copy !req
207. we have taken a century
and put it in our hip pocket.
Copy !req
208. We've taken a lease on life
and outlived our stay.
Copy !req
209. We've had our cake
but we're still going to eat.
Copy !req
210. That's quite an adventure
out there, mr. Decruz,
Copy !req
211. though you're a little
insensitive to it.
Copy !req
212. It's a world
we've never seen before-
Copy !req
213. a brand-new, exciting world
Copy !req
214. that we are going
to walk through.
Copy !req
215. But with gold,
farwell.
Copy !req
216. With a million bucks
worth of gold.
Copy !req
217. That's how we're going to walk through it.
Copy !req
218. Of course.
Copy !req
219. I wonder...
what kind of a world.
Copy !req
220. We all loaded up?
Copy !req
221. All loaded.
Copy !req
222. Okay, let's pull out.
Copy !req
223. Brooks, you drive.
Copy !req
224. I'll hop in the back
Copy !req
225. and make sure the gold
doesn't fall off.
Copy !req
226. Well, aren't you
the most thoughtful little thing
Copy !req
227. that ever
come down the pike?
Copy !req
228. What's the matter?
Copy !req
229. You stay in back
and watch the gold, huh?
Copy !req
230. Decruz, I wouldn't
trust you with gold
Copy !req
231. if it was filling in
your own mother's tooth.
Copy !req
232. No, buddy boy,
you drive.
Copy !req
233. I'll check the back.
Copy !req
234. Well, okay.
Copy !req
235. Okay, amigo.
Copy !req
236. Where's the
water can?
Copy !req
237. We might as well
get that loaded.
Copy !req
238. Over there where
we buried erbie.
Copy !req
239. Decruz!
Copy !req
240. Mr. Brooks had
a very bad accident.
Copy !req
241. I keep underestimating
you, mr. Decruz.
Copy !req
242. Yeah, well,
we'll do it my way now.
Copy !req
243. We'll pack
as much as we can,
Copy !req
244. put them in
two knapsacks,
Copy !req
245. and hit the road.
Copy !req
246. I can't think of any
other alternative
Copy !req
247. at the moment.
Copy !req
248. Hold it, decruz, hold it.
Copy !req
249. I've... got to rest.
Copy !req
250. How we doing,
farwell?
Copy !req
251. The map said...
Copy !req
252. the map said 28 miles
to the next town.
Copy !req
253. At this rate,
Copy !req
254. we won't reach it
till tomorrow afternoon.
Copy !req
255. At this rate,
you'll never reach it.
Copy !req
256. There hasn't been a car,
not a single car.
Copy !req
257. What if...?
Copy !req
258. "What if" what?
Copy !req
259. What if there were a war?
Copy !req
260. What if they dropped a bomb?
Copy !req
261. What if this highway
stretched to...
Copy !req
262. stretched to what?
Copy !req
263. Stretched to nothing,
mr. Decruz?
Copy !req
264. Stretched to nothing at all?
Copy !req
265. Wouldn't it be the irony
of all ironies-
Copy !req
266. walk... till our hearts burst
Copy !req
267. carrying all this gold?
Copy !req
268. There's a world left, farwell,
Copy !req
269. and that proves it.
Copy !req
270. That means there's
a town up ahead.
Copy !req
271. We're going to make it, buddy.
Copy !req
272. We're going to make it.
Copy !req
273. Come on. Let's get going.
Copy !req
274. My canteen is gone.
Copy !req
275. I must have left it
back on the road
Copy !req
276. the last place
we stopped.
Copy !req
277. I haven't any water.
Copy !req
278. Water?
Copy !req
279. Oh, I believe there's some water
around here you could drink.
Copy !req
280. Let's see, uh...
oh, here's some water.
Copy !req
281. One drink, one bar of gold.
Copy !req
282. That's the price.
Copy !req
283. You're out of your mind.
Copy !req
284. That's the price.
Copy !req
285. One drink, one bar of gold.
Copy !req
286. I keep underrating you,
mr. Decruz.
Copy !req
287. You're quite
an entrepreneur.
Copy !req
288. Ain't it the truth.
Copy !req
289. One drink,
one bar of gold.
Copy !req
290. That's the going rate
today, mr. Farwell.
Copy !req
291. It may change tomorrow-
I haven't checked the market-
Copy !req
292. but for today it's one for one.
Copy !req
293. Let's go,
mr. Farwell.
Copy !req
294. What's the matter?
Copy !req
295. You pooped already?
Copy !req
296. You had a good
night's sleep,
Copy !req
297. and we've only
been on the road
Copy !req
298. a couple hours.
Copy !req
299. Stop... must stop.
Copy !req
300. Must have water,
decruz.
Copy !req
301. Must have water.
Copy !req
302. Well, all right,
farwell.
Copy !req
303. I got about a quarter
of a canteen left.
Copy !req
304. Please, decruz.
Copy !req
305. Please, decruz.
Copy !req
306. Mr. Farwell,
the rate of exchange
Copy !req
307. has gone up a little bit today.
Copy !req
308. It's two bars
of gold
Copy !req
309. for one swallow.
Copy !req
310. Water, please.
Copy !req
311. Mister... mister...
Copy !req
312. this is gold here.
Copy !req
313. You can have it.
Copy !req
314. Drive me to town.
Copy !req
315. If you give me water...
Copy !req
316. gold...
Copy !req
317. it's real gold.
Copy !req
318. You can have it.
Copy !req
319. I'll give it to you.
Copy !req
320. I'll... give it to you.
Copy !req
321. Poor old fella.
Copy !req
322. Poor old fella.
Copy !req
323. I wonder where you came from.
Copy !req
324. Who is it, george?
Copy !req
325. What's the matter
with him?
Copy !req
326. Some old tramp.
Copy !req
327. That's what he was.
Copy !req
328. He's dead.
Copy !req
329. What's that?
Copy !req
330. Gold- that's what
he said it was.
Copy !req
331. He wanted
to give it to me
Copy !req
332. in exchange
for a lift into town.
Copy !req
333. Gold? Now, what
in the world
Copy !req
334. would he be doing
with this gold?
Copy !req
335. I don't know, he was probably
off his rocker.
Copy !req
336. Anybody walking in the desert
this time of day
Copy !req
337. would be off his rocker.
Copy !req
338. Can you imagine that?
Copy !req
339. He offered this to me
Copy !req
340. as if it was really
worth something.
Copy !req
341. You know, wasn't it worth
something once, george?
Copy !req
342. I mean, didn't people
use gold for money?
Copy !req
343. Sure, about
a hundred years or so ago,
Copy !req
344. before they found a way
of manufacturing it.
Copy !req
345. When we get back into town,
Copy !req
346. we'll have the police
come out and pick him up.
Copy !req
347. The last
of four rip van winkles
Copy !req
348. who all died precisely
the way they lived:
Copy !req
349. Chasing an idol across the sand
Copy !req
350. to wind up bleached dry
in the hot sun
Copy !req
351. as so much desert flotsam
Copy !req
352. worthless as the gold bullion
they built a shrine to-
Copy !req
353. tonight's lesson
in the twilight zone.
Copy !req
354. Rod serling,
creator of the twilight zone,
Copy !req
355. will tell you
about next week's story
Copy !req
356. after this word
from our alternate sponsor.
Copy !req
357. And now, mr. Serling.
Copy !req
358. There are all kinds of wagers
and all kinds of odds,
Copy !req
359. from the spin
of a roulette wheel
Copy !req
360. to a two dollar across the board
at a racetrack.
Copy !req
361. But next week
onthe twilight zone,
Copy !req
362. with the aid
of mr. Franchot tone,
Copy !req
363. we tell the story of possibly
the strangest bet ever to occur
Copy !req
364. in the annals of chance.
Copy !req
365. Our program is called
"the silence."
Copy !req
366. I hope we'll see you then.
Copy !req
367. Here's something that doesn't
require any imagination-
Copy !req
368. it's oasis.
Copy !req
369. If you just took this puff,
Copy !req
370. you'd agree
it's the softest taste of all.
Copy !req
371. Before we meet again,
Copy !req
372. try oasis
for the softest taste of all.
Copy !req
373. Be sure and watchgunsmoke,
starring james arness,
Copy !req
374. saturday nights over most
of these same stations.
Copy !req
