through another dimension-
Copy !req

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

Copy !req
13. Es salvador.
Copy !req
14. Rudolfo...
Copy !req
15. rudolfo, I wish
to send a telegram.
Copy !req
16. Telegram now?
Copy !req
17. But this is
after hours.
Copy !req
18. What's the matter
with you, sanchez?
Copy !req
19. Please, do you know
what time it is?
Copy !req
20. I close at 4:00.
Copy !req
21. For 23 years,
I close at 4:00.
Copy !req
22. Because you are
a policeman,
Copy !req
23. you think you got
the privilege to...?
Copy !req
24. Salvador?
Copy !req
25. How?
Copy !req
26. I will send a telegram;
it will explain.
Copy !req
27. You will
tell it to me?
Copy !req
28. I will tell
it to you.
Copy !req
29. Send it as
I tell it.
Copy !req
30. To the prefect of
police, state capital.
Copy !req
31. Prefect of police?
Copy !req
32. Send it, rudolfo,
send it!
Copy !req
33. Don't censor it!
Copy !req
34. Unidentified aircraft-
or something-
Copy !req
35. crashed into the hills north
of our village late last night.
Copy !req
36. Object is metal
and circular.
Copy !req
37. Officer emmanuel salvador
and myself
Copy !req
38. investigated the
scene of the crash.
Copy !req
39. Found evidence of footprints
and broken brush.
Copy !req
40. Salvador
followed same.
Copy !req
41. I heard
several shots.
Copy !req
42. Found body of
officer salvador.
Copy !req
43. Say that I followed the
figure of the monster
Copy !req
44. in the darkness.
Copy !req
45. I fired several shots.
Copy !req
46. I believe I wounded
whoever it...
Copy !req
47. whateverit was.
Copy !req
48. The place is mexico,
Copy !req
49. just across the texas border.
Copy !req
50. A mountain village held back
in time by its remoteness,
Copy !req
51. and suddenly intruded upon
by the 20th century.
Copy !req
52. And this is pedro,
nine years old-
Copy !req
53. a lonely, rootless little boy
Copy !req
54. who will soon
make the acquaintance
Copy !req
55. of a traveler
from a distant place.
Copy !req
56. We are at present 40 miles
from the rio grande,
Copy !req
57. but any place and all places
can be the twilight zone.
Copy !req
58. Who did it, sanchez?
Copy !req
59. Please, doctor,
I do not know.
Copy !req
60. Some, some giant thing
escaped in the darkness.
Copy !req
61. I fired several
shots, and...
Copy !req
62. later, I found
some bloodstains.
Copy !req
63. They're sending some army
men from the state capitol.
Copy !req
64. They will take over.
Copy !req
65. Some "giant thing"?
Copy !req
66. Not the darkness,
or perhaps your fear?
Copy !req
67. You doubt me, doctor?
Copy !req
68. No, you're the law and order
in this village, sanchez.
Copy !req
69. Be the sanity as well.
Copy !req
70. You have frightened
all these people.
Copy !req
71. I just want to make sure
Copy !req
72. that the source of the fear
is not an illusion.
Copy !req
73. This, doctor- is
this an illusion?
Copy !req
74. All right, go to
your homes, everybody,
Copy !req
75. and lock your doors.
Copy !req
76. I want no one on
the streets tonight.
Copy !req
77. We're in danger.
Copy !req
78. I found all I
wanted to know.
Copy !req
79. Take the body
to the priest now.
Copy !req
80. Drink up, doctor;
I want to close now.
Copy !req
81. I have no doubt.
Copy !req
82. What stalks
the night, manolo?
Copy !req
83. What stalks the night?
Copy !req
84. Whatever it is, I
want my place locked...
Copy !req
85. thank you for coming,
Copy !req
86. stargazer.
Copy !req
87. I am cursed
in my old age
Copy !req
88. by having
this astronomer
on my payroll.
Copy !req
89. Still looking at
the stars, pedro?
Copy !req
90. So, what do you learn
Copy !req
91. from the
stars, eh?
Copy !req
92. Have they
ever told you
Copy !req
93. to sweep this
place properly
Copy !req
94. or to clean
a glass?
Copy !req
95. It is said there is life
on some of them.
Copy !req
96. Oh, this is a fact?
Copy !req
97. Then you and the
man in the moon
Copy !req
98. have nothing in common,
Copy !req
99. because you
aren't alive.
Copy !req
100. Here, go get
some water
Copy !req
101. and come
right back.
Copy !req
102. Doors should be
locked tonight.
Copy !req
103. He's a strange little boy.
Copy !req
104. Where'd he come from?
Copy !req
105. Who knows?
Copy !req
106. He's son of abracero,
it is said.
Copy !req
107. The authorities are in
here three times a week
Copy !req
108. asking me why he
does not attend school.
Copy !req
109. They ask me, ha!
Copy !req
110. The boy is not of my flesh.
Copy !req
111. I know nothing of him.
Copy !req
112. He cleans the place for me
and serves table,
Copy !req
113. and he has a room in the back.
Copy !req
114. Hey, I overpay him,
believe me,
Copy !req
115. but I am not
such a rich man
Copy !req
116. that I can
certainly afford
Copy !req
117. to run an orphanage
Copy !req
118. for little
street urchins.
Copy !req
119. He doesn't have
any friends, does he?
Copy !req
120. Him? Why should he?
Copy !req
121. He has a mind
like an old man.
Copy !req
122. He's not normal.
Copy !req
123. Go look for him
out in the night,
Copy !req
124. and you'll see him
standing there
Copy !req
125. looking up
at the sky.
Copy !req
126. Did you ever
see him smile?
Copy !req
127. I ask
you this.
Copy !req
128. Did you ever
see him smile?
Copy !req
129. Why would he smile, the boy?
Copy !req
130. What is there
Copy !req
131. to delight
him?
Copy !req
132. His poverty?
Copy !req
133. Why should he smile?
Copy !req
134. Perhaps, manolo...
Copy !req
135. perhaps on
some occasion,
Copy !req
136. some festive
occasion,
Copy !req
137. instead of handing him
a broom or a tray,
Copy !req
138. extend him a hand.
Copy !req
139. Keep the boy inside
tonight, manolo.
Copy !req
140. Shall I see you home, ignacio?
Copy !req
141. No, thank you,
pedro.
Copy !req
142. With me, darkness is a friend.
Copy !req
143. But you stay inside.
Copy !req
144. I'm locking up
now, doctor.
Copy !req
145. I must ask you
to leave.
Copy !req
146. So, manolo...
Copy !req
147. my friend,
wear a smile,
Copy !req
148. and you'll doubtless live
to see the morning.
Copy !req
149. Are you still open?
Copy !req
150. I thought perhaps I
could have some wine.
Copy !req
151. ¯como estas?
Copy !req
152. Bien.
Copy !req
153. Please
sit down, sir.
Copy !req
154. I will get
you wine.
Copy !req
155. I am sorry, senor,
but the place is closed.
Copy !req
156. We are closed now,
and no longer serving.
Copy !req
157. There is a curfew.
Copy !req
158. Is this not
true, doctor?
Copy !req
159. Is there not
a curfew on?
Copy !req
160. I won't stay but a moment.
Copy !req
161. Just...
long enough
Copy !req
162. for a drink
of wine.
Copy !req
163. I... I'm ill, I think.
Copy !req
164. But I promise you I won't stay.
Copy !req
165. Please.
Copy !req
166. That's not wine.
Copy !req
167. The bottle
didn't break,
Copy !req
168. so it couldn't be...
Copy !req
169. I didn't want
to hurt him.
Copy !req
170. He gave me
no choice.
Copy !req
171. I must explain.
Copy !req
172. Please...
Copy !req
173. please...
listen to me for a moment.
Copy !req
174. I tried to explain before
Copy !req
175. to that policeman
or soldier,
Copy !req
176. or whoever it was.
Copy !req
177. I tried to tell him
that I came in peace.
Copy !req
178. He wanted to kill me.
Copy !req
179. I tried to get the gun
away from him,
Copy !req
180. and it went off
against his body.
Copy !req
181. And then the man who came
afterwards kept firing at me.
Copy !req
182. Please... please...
Copy !req
183. please...
Copy !req
184. you'll be all right soon.
Copy !req
185. The doctor has said so.
Copy !req
186. He will make you all well again.
Copy !req
187. It's very odd, pedro,
very odd, indeed,
Copy !req
188. that there's
only one person
Copy !req
189. who feels neither
fear nor anger,
Copy !req
190. and this is a boy.
Copy !req
191. It is because we are alike.
Copy !req
192. You are a stranger,
Copy !req
193. and in a way,
I am a stranger, too.
Copy !req
194. Pedro, the poncho...
Copy !req
195. what?
Copy !req
196. In the pocket.
Copy !req
197. Get it.
Copy !req
198. It's a gift.
Copy !req
199. Put it away.
Copy !req
200. I'll tell you later on.
Copy !req
201. For a badly wounded man,
Copy !req
202. you have
a strangely willful pulse.
Copy !req
203. I might go a step further
Copy !req
204. and say that I wish mine
sounded like yours does.
Copy !req
205. Pedro, bring the lamp
close to the bed.
Copy !req
206. Si, doctor.
Copy !req
207. Ether?
Copy !req
208. I'm going to start
digging in there
Copy !req
209. for at least
30 minutes.
Copy !req
210. No anesthetic, doctor.
Copy !req
211. Pedro, I think
this is a good time
Copy !req
212. for you to go out
and look at the stars.
Copy !req
213. You have a good
friend, senor.
Copy !req
214. Doctor, you must
give him something.
Copy !req
215. Pedro, I will
tell you something.
Copy !req
216. I'm a very
obliging man,
Copy !req
217. but your friend does not
want the pain deadened.
Copy !req
218. And I always say, every
man to his own taste.
Copy !req
219. Whiskey. If not the best,
make it the strongest.
Copy !req
220. The stranger
travels light.
Copy !req
221. Just the clothes
on his back, and...
Copy !req
222. and these inside
his chest.
Copy !req
223. He was very brave, doctor.
Copy !req
224. Not a sound from him.
Copy !req
225. Not so much as a cry
all that time.
Copy !req
226. Yes, very brave.
Copy !req
227. Pedro, come here.
Copy !req
228. What else do you
know of him, pedro?
Copy !req
229. I know nothing else
except that he is my friend.
Copy !req
230. Yes, this may be true,
Copy !req
231. but it does not
explain the man, does it?
Copy !req
232. For example, it does not explain
Copy !req
233. how a man can have
two bullets inside his body
Copy !req
234. and have them removed
without a whimper.
Copy !req
235. It does not explain
Copy !req
236. how this
man's pulse
Copy !req
237. can be as strong
and as steady
Copy !req
238. as if there was
nothing else wrong
with him than a cold.
Copy !req
239. And it does not explain
why this man is alive
Copy !req
240. when he should be dead.
Copy !req
241. We got to him
just in time, doctor.
Copy !req
242. No, pedro.
Copy !req
243. We got to him about
three hours too late.
Copy !req
244. We got to him
where by the laws
Copy !req
245. of every book
on common sense
Copy !req
246. he should have
bled to death.
Copy !req
247. But he didn't.
Copy !req
248. So, stay by
your friend, huh?
Copy !req
249. And look
after him.
Copy !req
250. Si, doctor.
Copy !req
251. Manolo.
Copy !req
252. When I was in there,
I heard the door unlock.
Copy !req
253. Oh, I...
I went out, doctor.
Copy !req
254. I went out to tell sanchez
that when the army came,
Copy !req
255. they would not
have to go walking
Copy !req
256. through the hills at night.
Copy !req
257. They would only have to come
here to find what they want.
Copy !req
258. At your baptism, they forgot
to give you a proper name.
Copy !req
259. What would that be, doctor?
Copy !req
260. That would be judas, manolo.
Copy !req
261. You must be tired, pedro.
Copy !req
262. It doesn't
matter, senor.
Copy !req
263. I can sleep
anytime.
Copy !req
264. Now you
must sleep.
Copy !req
265. You have a poet, pedro.
Copy !req
266. I read him- robert burns.
Copy !req
267. He said, "the best-laid schemes
o' mice and men
Copy !req
268. gang aft a-gley..."
Copy !req
269. like my plans.
Copy !req
270. I came here to give, and
all I've done is to take-
Copy !req
271. your bed, your room.
Copy !req
272. Even my clothes-
I stole them.
Copy !req
273. I've often wondered why it is
that men fear the unknown.
Copy !req
274. Like children,
they're afraid of the dark.
Copy !req
275. The only person
Copy !req
276. I've met
Copy !req
277. who isn't afraid
of the dark
Copy !req
278. is a child.
Copy !req
279. Because I am an odd one.
Copy !req
280. We are both odd ones,
mr. Williams.
Copy !req
281. You come from a long way off,
don't you?
Copy !req
282. From the stars?
Copy !req
283. From beyond the stars, pedro.
Copy !req
284. For a reason?
Copy !req
285. For many reasons.
Copy !req
286. And this thing
you've given me...
Copy !req
287. just a gift.
Copy !req
288. A gesture, really.
Copy !req
289. A small gift
to show them
Copy !req
290. that I came
as a visitor
Copy !req
291. not an invader.
Copy !req
292. I must get back
to my ship, pedro
Copy !req
293. see if I can repair it.
Copy !req
294. And then
I must leave.
Copy !req
295. For good, senor?
Copy !req
296. For good and all?
Copy !req
297. Oh, no, pedro,
there's no such thing
Copy !req
298. as "for good and all."
Copy !req
299. There is only forever.
Copy !req
300. I will come back sometime...
Copy !req
301. or others like me.
Copy !req
302. Where you're from,
is there a god?
Copy !req
303. The same god, pedro.
Copy !req
304. I wonder...
Copy !req
305. what?
Copy !req
306. If god were to come to earth,
Copy !req
307. would they find him so strange
that they would be afraid,
Copy !req
308. and would they shoot him?
Copy !req
309. Did not his son
come once, pedro?
Copy !req
310. And they nailed him to a cross.
Copy !req
311. And then spent 2,000 years
learning to believe in him.
Copy !req
312. All things take time, pedro.
Copy !req
313. Soon,
pedro, soon
Copy !req
314. your people
will no longer
be afraid of me.
Copy !req
315. They will not be afraid,
and then...
Copy !req
316. then I can show them the gift.
Copy !req
317. I am
sanchez, sir.
Copy !req
318. I am the local
police officer.
Copy !req
319. And the fugitive?
Copy !req
320. Inside there, sir.
Copy !req
321. It was I, myself
who shot him
Copy !req
322. and brought
him down.
Copy !req
323. The bartender tells me
that he lies in a bed
Copy !req
324. too weak to move.
Copy !req
325. You are a brave man,
officer sanchez.
Copy !req
326. But please explain to me
Copy !req
327. if he is only one man
and is too weak to move,
Copy !req
328. why do you need us?
Copy !req
329. You, you do not
understand, sir.
Copy !req
330. This is not a man;
this is a creature.
Copy !req
331. Who knows what
are his powers?
Copy !req
332. You- you are
the owner?
Copy !req
333. This is manolo, si.
Copy !req
334. The person you seek
is inside, captain.
Copy !req
335. I have held him here for you.
Copy !req
336. Oh, I am
in the presence
Copy !req
337. of such courage,
mr. Bartender.
Copy !req
338. A village
of lions.
Copy !req
339. Sergeant,
in here with me.
Copy !req
340. The two of you,
wait outside.
Copy !req
341. Excuse me, captain.
Copy !req
342. The man is too
ill to be moved.
Copy !req
343. Oh?
And you would be...?
Copy !req
344. I am the doctor here.
Copy !req
345. I have been treating the man.
Copy !req
346. He was wounded,
captain,
Copy !req
347. after killing one
of our policeman.
Copy !req
348. Why don't you
let captain
Copy !req
349. do his duty,
doctor?
Copy !req
350. I will be very happy
to let the captain do his duty,
Copy !req
351. but first, I must be
cognizant of my own.
Copy !req
352. The man is my patient;
he's been badly wounded.
Copy !req
353. He can do no one any harm.
Copy !req
354. Hmm.
Unfortunately, doctor
Copy !req
355. my orders from
the state capital
Copy !req
356. were to bring back
a killer,
Copy !req
357. not a patient.
Copy !req
358. Get out of
the way, pedro.
Copy !req
359. They have come
for the monster.
Copy !req
360. No! He
must live!
Copy !req
361. The doctor
said he must
stay here.
Copy !req
362. Here he is, captain.
Copy !req
363. Have the men surround
the street immediately.
Copy !req
364. He cannot have gone
very far.
Copy !req
365. If there is ever a need here
Copy !req
366. for a town jailer,
mr. Bartender,
Copy !req
367. I hope you do not see fit
to run for the office!
Copy !req
368. Que dios nos proteja!
Copy !req
369. The soldiers
will protect us.
Copy !req
370. There he is!
Copy !req
371. Officer, I found him!
He's here!
Copy !req
372. You're under arrest, senor!
Copy !req
373. You will come with us.
Copy !req
374. The charge is murder.
Copy !req
375. Death was an accident.
Copy !req
376. I come in peace.
Copy !req
377. You will put up
your hands
Copy !req
378. and walk toward me.
Copy !req
379. Mr. Williams! Mr. Williams!
Copy !req
380. Pedro, the gift.
Copy !req
381. Show them
the gift.
Copy !req
382. Give it to
the doctor.
Copy !req
383. He will explain
it to them.
Copy !req
384. Destroy it.
Copy !req
385. Burn it! Burn it!
Copy !req
386. It is the devil's work.
Copy !req
387. Destroy it!
Copy !req
388. It's the devil's work!
Copy !req
389. Burn it! Burn it!
Copy !req
390. Why did you do it?
Copy !req
391. Why?
Copy !req
392. Que dios nos proteja!
Copy !req
393. Calm yourself.
Copy !req
394. Pedro!
Copy !req
395. Look out for the boy!
Copy !req
396. Somebody stop him.
Copy !req
397. He's attacking the boy.
Copy !req
398. He's going after the boy!
Copy !req
399. Somebody stop him!
Copy !req
400. He's attacking the boy!
Copy !req
401. All right,
that's the end of it.
Copy !req
402. Everybody,
back to your homes.
Copy !req
403. Clear the streets.
Copy !req
404. Arrange for someone
to pick up the body.
Copy !req
405. What was it, doctor?
Copy !req
406. Black magic?
Copy !req
407. Something from satan?
Copy !req
