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. Your next stop,
the twilight zone.
Copy !req
7. Suzy!
Copy !req
8. Don't take the lady's water.
Copy !req
9. It's all right,
mr. Schuster.
Copy !req
10. I've got plenty.
Copy !req
11. Nobody's got plenty.
Copy !req
12. Oh, mr. Schuster, I thought
Copy !req
13. I heard
your voice.
Copy !req
14. For the last time, mrs. Bronson,
we're leaving.
Copy !req
15. Did you get gas?
Copy !req
16. I got 12 gallons.
Copy !req
17. I figure that
ought to get us
Copy !req
18. at least
to syracuse.
Copy !req
19. Where are you going?
Copy !req
20. We're trying
to get to toronto.
Copy !req
21. Mr. Schuster
has a cousin there.
Copy !req
22. I'm not sure it's wise
you're doing this.
Copy !req
23. The highways are packed
bumper to bumper the radio says.
Copy !req
24. And what with the gas shortage
and everything...
Copy !req
25. I know that,
Copy !req
26. but we've got
to try anyway.
Copy !req
27. It's been nice
living here.
Copy !req
28. You're good
neighbors.
Copy !req
29. Let's go, honey.
Copy !req
30. Bye.
Copy !req
31. Good luck.
Copy !req
32. Safe trip.
Copy !req
33. And now we are two.
Copy !req
34. They were the last?
Copy !req
35. Building's empty now...
Copy !req
36. except for you and me.
Copy !req
37. What happens now?
Copy !req
38. I don't know.
Copy !req
39. I heard on the radio
Copy !req
40. that they're only going
to turn the water on
Copy !req
41. an hour a day from now on.
Copy !req
42. They said
they'd announce what time.
Copy !req
43. Aren't you going to leave?
Copy !req
44. No.
Copy !req
45. No, I'm not going to leave.
Copy !req
46. You know, mrs. Bronson,
Copy !req
47. I keep getting this
crazy thought...
Copy !req
48. this crazy thought
that I'm going to wake up
Copy !req
49. and none of this
will have happened.
Copy !req
50. I'll wake up
in a cool bed, and...
Copy !req
51. it'll be night outside
Copy !req
52. and there'll be a wind...
Copy !req
53. branches rustling...
Copy !req
54. shadows on the sidewalk...
Copy !req
55. a moon...
Copy !req
56. traffic noises...
Copy !req
57. automobiles...
Copy !req
58. garbage cans...
Copy !req
59. milk bottles...
Copy !req
60. and voices.
Copy !req
61. There was a scientist
on the radio this morning.
Copy !req
62. He said that it'll get
a lot hotter, more each day,
Copy !req
63. now that we're moving
so close to the sun.
Copy !req
64. And that's why we're...
Copy !req
65. that's why we're...
Copy !req
66. the word that mrs. Bronson
is unable to put
Copy !req
67. into the hot, still, sodden air
is "doomed"
Copy !req
68. because the people
you've just seen
Copy !req
69. have been handed
a death sentence.
Copy !req
70. One month ago,
Copy !req
71. the earth suddenly changed
its elliptical orbit,
Copy !req
72. and in doing so
began to follow a path
Copy !req
73. which gradually,
moment by moment, day by day,
Copy !req
74. took it closer to the sun.
Copy !req
75. And all of man's little devices
to stir up the air
Copy !req
76. are now no longer luxuries.
Copy !req
77. They happen to be pitiful
and panicky keys to survival.
Copy !req
78. The time is five minutes to 12,
midnight.
Copy !req
79. There is no more darkness.
Copy !req
80. The place is new york city,
and this is the eve of the end
Copy !req
81. because even at midnight,
it's high noon,
Copy !req
82. the hottest day in history,
Copy !req
83. and you're about to spend it
in the twilight zone.
Copy !req
84. Norma, is that
you, honey?
Copy !req
85. Yes, mrs. Bronson.
Copy !req
86. The store was open.
Copy !req
87. Wide open.
Copy !req
88. Oh, I think
Copy !req
89. that's the first
time in my life
Copy !req
90. I was ever sorry
I was born a woman.
Copy !req
91. This is all
I was strong
enough to carry.
Copy !req
92. There weren't any
clerks around...
Copy !req
93. thank you.
Copy !req
94. Just a handful
of people
Copy !req
95. taking what
they could grab.
Copy !req
96. Well, at least we
won't starve anyway.
Copy !req
97. And there are three cans
of fruit juice in there.
Copy !req
98. Fruit juice?
Copy !req
99. Fruit juice?
Copy !req
100. Oh, norma, could we
open a can now?
Copy !req
101. Oh, of course we
can open a can now.
Copy !req
102. Oh, where's
the can opener?
Copy !req
103. Oh, in the other drawer.
Copy !req
104. Oh, I'm sorry.
Copy !req
105. I'm acting
just like an animal, aren't I?
Copy !req
106. No.
Copy !req
107. No, no, just...
Copy !req
108. just like a frightened
woman, that's all.
Copy !req
109. You should have
seen me in the store
Copy !req
110. running up and down
the aisles,
Copy !req
111. and I mean running.
Copy !req
112. Knocking things over
and grabbing things
Copy !req
113. and throwing them away
and grabbing again.
Copy !req
114. And at that,
I think I was
Copy !req
115. the calmest person
in the store.
Copy !req
116. One woman just stood in the
middle of the room and cried.
Copy !req
117. She cried like a baby,
Copy !req
118. pleading for someone
to help her.
Copy !req
119. Ladies and gentlemen.
Copy !req
120. This is station wnyg
Copy !req
121. coming on the air
to bring you essential news.
Copy !req
122. First, a bulletin
from the police department.
Copy !req
123. Keep your doors locked
Copy !req
124. and prepare to protect
yourselves, if necessary,
Copy !req
125. with any weapons you may have.
Copy !req
126. A majority of the police force
Copy !req
127. has been assigned
to the crowded highways
Copy !req
128. outside this deserted city.
Copy !req
129. And citizens
remaining in new york
Copy !req
130. may have to protect themselves
Copy !req
131. from the cranks and looters
known to be roaming the streets.
Copy !req
132. From the weather bureau:
Copy !req
133. The temperature
stood at 110 degrees
Copy !req
134. at 11:00 this morning.
Copy !req
135. Humidity 91%.
Copy !req
136. Forecast for tomorrow...
Copy !req
137. forecast for tomorrow...
Copy !req
138. hot.
Copy !req
139. More of the same, only hotter.
Copy !req
140. Stop it.
Copy !req
141. I don't care.
Copy !req
142. Who are they kidding
with this weather report stuff?
Copy !req
143. Ladies and gentlemen,
Copy !req
144. tomorrow,
you can fry eggs on sidewalks,
Copy !req
145. heat up soup in the ocean,
Copy !req
146. and get help from wondering
maniacs if you choose.
Copy !req
147. What do you mean "panic"?
Copy !req
148. Who's left to panic?
Copy !req
149. Ladies and gentlemen,
Copy !req
150. I'm told that
my departing from the script
Copy !req
151. might panic you and...
Copy !req
152. let me alone.
Do you hear me?
Copy !req
153. Let me alone.
Let go of me.
Copy !req
154. There, you...
Copy !req
155. you see, mrs. Bronson?
Copy !req
156. You're not the only one
who's frightened.
Copy !req
157. There we are.
Copy !req
158. Go ahead, drink it.
Copy !req
159. It's grapefruit juice.
Copy !req
160. No, I can't. I can't
live off you like this.
Copy !req
161. You need it for yourself.
Copy !req
162. Mrs. Bronson,
Copy !req
163. we're going to have to
start living off each other
Copy !req
164. from now on.
Copy !req
165. Here's looking at you.
Copy !req
166. Current's off again.
Copy !req
167. It stays on a shorter
time each day.
Copy !req
168. Norma, what if it shuts off
and doesn't come back on again?
Copy !req
169. This place would
be like an oven.
Copy !req
170. As hot as it is,
Copy !req
171. it could be
so much worse.
Copy !req
172. Oh, norma, it could
be so much worse.
Copy !req
173. Norma...
Copy !req
174. please paint
something cool today.
Copy !req
175. Paint something...
pastoral...
Copy !req
176. with a waterfall and...
Copy !req
177. trees bending in the wind.
Copy !req
178. Please paint something cool.
Copy !req
179. Don't paint the sun anymore!
Copy !req
180. Mrs. Bronson?
Copy !req
181. Mrs. Bronson?
Copy !req
182. You all right?
Copy !req
183. Yes, I'm all right.
Copy !req
184. It's so quiet.
Copy !req
185. I haven't
heard a sound.
Copy !req
186. What time is it?
Copy !req
187. 3:00 in the afternoon.
Copy !req
188. Did you get any sleep?
Copy !req
189. I laid down awhile.
Copy !req
190. What was that?
Copy !req
191. Sounds like
something fell.
Copy !req
192. No...
Copy !req
193. it was someone.
Copy !req
194. Didn't you lock
the roof door?
Copy !req
195. Yes.
Copy !req
196. No, I...
Copy !req
197. I don't know, I...
Copy !req
198. I don't remember.
Copy !req
199. I thought I did.
Copy !req
200. Hey, somebody in there?
Copy !req
201. Come on out.
Copy !req
202. Come on out, baby.
Copy !req
203. Come on out and be friendly.
Copy !req
204. I ain't got all day.
Copy !req
205. If you don't come out,
I'm going to come in.
Copy !req
206. Did you hear that?
Copy !req
207. That was a gun.
Copy !req
208. Get out of here.
Copy !req
209. Down the stairs
and out the front door.
Copy !req
210. Leave us alone.
Copy !req
211. Okay, baby.
Copy !req
212. I never argue with
a lady with a gun.
Copy !req
213. Oh, I'm so glad he's gone.
Copy !req
214. He hasn't come out
the front door yet.
Copy !req
215. No!
Copy !req
216. Crazy dames!
Copy !req
217. It's too hot to play games.
Copy !req
218. Much too hot.
Copy !req
219. You do this?
Copy !req
220. You're good.
Copy !req
221. You paint real good.
Copy !req
222. My wife
used to paint.
Copy !req
223. Please leave
us alone.
Copy !req
224. We didn't do
you any harm.
Copy !req
225. Please.
Copy !req
226. She was so fragile,
just... just a little thing.
Copy !req
227. She couldn't take this heat.
Copy !req
228. I tried to keep her cool...
Copy !req
229. but she couldn't take the heat!
Copy !req
230. Baby didn't live
more than an hour.
Copy !req
231. Then she followed him.
Copy !req
232. I'm not a housebreaker.
Copy !req
233. I'm a decent man.
Copy !req
234. I swear to you,
I'm a decent man.
Copy !req
235. I've been
walking around
Copy !req
236. all... all day
trying to find some water.
Copy !req
237. I wouldn't hurt you.
Copy !req
238. I wouldn't do you any harm.
Copy !req
239. Honest.
Copy !req
240. Please believe me.
Copy !req
241. Please...
Copy !req
242. please forgive me,
would you?
Copy !req
243. I'm just
off my rocker.
Copy !req
244. Please forgive me.
Copy !req
245. Why doesn't it end?
Copy !req
246. Why don't we just...
Copy !req
247. just burn up?
Copy !req
248. I painted it for
you last night.
Copy !req
249. It's for you.
Copy !req
250. Oh, it's beautiful, norma.
Copy !req
251. I've seen waterfalls
just like that before.
Copy !req
252. There's one near ithaca,
new york.
Copy !req
253. Yes,
it's the highest waterfall...
Copy !req
254. the highest waterfall
in this part of the country.
Copy !req
255. And I love the sound of it.
Copy !req
256. That wonderful blue water
tumbling over the rocks.
Copy !req
257. That wonderful,
cool, clear water.
Copy !req
258. You hear it, norma?
Copy !req
259. Hear it?
Copy !req
260. You do hear it,
norma, don't you?
Copy !req
261. That wonderful
sound?
Copy !req
262. You know, we could...
Copy !req
263. we could swim
in that waterfall.
Copy !req
264. Let's do that.
Copy !req
265. Let's swim in it,
shall we?
Copy !req
266. I used to do that
when I was a little girl.
Copy !req
267. Just...
just sit there and...
Copy !req
268. and let the water
come down over me.
Copy !req
269. Mrs. Bronson?
Copy !req
270. Mrs. Bronson?
Copy !req
271. Mrs. Bronson?
Copy !req
272. She's coming
out of it now.
Copy !req
273. Norma?
Copy !req
274. Norma?
Copy !req
275. Yes?
Copy !req
276. You were
running
Copy !req
277. a high fever,
but it's broken now.
Copy !req
278. Fever?
Copy !req
279. You gave us a
start, child.
Copy !req
280. You were so ill,
Copy !req
281. but you're going
to be all right now.
Copy !req
282. Isn't she, doctor?
Copy !req
283. Isn't she going to be all right?
Copy !req
284. Of course.
Copy !req
285. I wish I had something
left to give her
Copy !req
286. but the medicine's
Copy !req
287. pretty much
all gone now.
Copy !req
288. I won't be able
to come back.
Copy !req
289. I'm going to move my
family south tomorrow.
Copy !req
290. My friend has
a private plane.
Copy !req
291. Well, they say on the
radio, miami is warmer.
Copy !req
292. So they say.
Copy !req
293. But we're only
prolonging it.
Copy !req
294. There was a scientist
on the radio this morning.
Copy !req
295. He was trying
to explain what happened.
Copy !req
296. How the earth
had changed its orbit
Copy !req
297. and was starting
to move away from the sun,
Copy !req
298. and that within one, two,
Copy !req
299. or maybe three weeks
at the most,
Copy !req
300. there wouldn't be
any more sun-
Copy !req
301. we'd all freeze.
Copy !req
302. Oh, mrs. Bronson.
Copy !req
303. I had such a terrible dream.
Copy !req
304. It was so hot.
Copy !req
305. It was daylight
all the time.
Copy !req
306. There was...
a midnight sun.
Copy !req
307. There wasn't any night
at all.
Copy !req
308. No night at all.
Copy !req
309. Isn't it wonderful
Copy !req
310. to have darkness
and coolness?
Copy !req
311. Yes, my dear.
Copy !req
312. It's wonderful.
Copy !req
313. The poles of fear,
Copy !req
314. the extremes of how the earth
might conceivably be doomed.
Copy !req
315. Minor exercise in the care
and feeding of a nightmare,
Copy !req
316. respectfully submitted
Copy !req
317. by all the thermometer-watchers
in the twilight zone.
Copy !req
318. Rod serling,
creator of the twilight zone,
Copy !req
319. will tell you
about next week's story
Copy !req
320. after this word
from our alternate sponsor.
Copy !req
321. And now, mr. Serling.
Copy !req
322. Next week
we move back into time,
Copy !req
323. back to 1863.
Copy !req
324. A distinguished actor,
mr. Gary merrill,
Copy !req
325. plays the role
of a confederate scout
Copy !req
326. who goes off on a patrol
and winds up smack-dab
Copy !req
327. in the center
of the twilight zone.
Copy !req
328. Our story is an adaptation
of a strange tale
Copy !req
329. by manly wade wellman
called "the still valley."
Copy !req
330. This one is for civil war buffs
and the students of the occult.
Copy !req
331. I hope you're around
to take a look at it.
Copy !req
332. Hello. I'm celeste holm.
Copy !req
333. Give through
the refugee aid programs
Copy !req
334. of the catholic, protestant
and jewish faiths.
Copy !req
