Copy !req
2. You unlock this door
with the key of imagination.
Copy !req
3. Beyond it is another dimension-
Copy !req
4. a dimension of sound,
Copy !req
5. a dimension of sight,
Copy !req
6. a dimension of mind.
Copy !req
7. You're moving into a land
of both shadow and substance,
Copy !req
8. of things and ideas.
Copy !req
9. You've just crossed over
into the twilight zone.
Copy !req
10. Hello?
Copy !req
11. I'm sorry, I didn't hear.
Copy !req
12. The thunder.
Copy !req
13. Hello?
Copy !req
14. Who's on the line, please?
Copy !req
15. Hello?
Copy !req
16. Hello?
Copy !req
17. Miss elva keene
Copy !req
18. lives alone on the outskirts
of london flats,
Copy !req
19. a tiny rural community in maine.
Copy !req
20. Up until now, the pattern
of miss keene's existence
Copy !req
21. has been
that of lying in her bed
Copy !req
22. or sitting in her wheelchair
reading books,
Copy !req
23. listening to a radio,
Copy !req
24. eating, napping,
taking medication
Copy !req
25. and waiting for
something different to happen.
Copy !req
26. Miss keene doesn't know it yet
Copy !req
27. but her period of waiting
has just ended,
Copy !req
28. for something different
is about to happen to her,
Copy !req
29. has, in fact,
already begun to happen
Copy !req
30. via two most unaccountable
telephone calls
Copy !req
31. in the middle of a stormy night.
Copy !req
32. Telephone calls
routed directly through
Copy !req
33. the twilight zone.
Copy !req
34. Hello?
Copy !req
35. Hello?
Copy !req
36. Hello?
Copy !req
37. Hello!
Copy !req
38. Up early this morning.
Copy !req
39. What's the matter
with her?
Copy !req
40. No answer?
Copy !req
41. Obviously.
Copy !req
42. I imagine they're
pretty busy there
Copy !req
43. this morning
with the storm and all.
Copy !req
44. Oh, miss finch?
Copy !req
45. This is elva keene
speaking.
Copy !req
46. Yes, miss keene, can I help you?
Copy !req
47. You can.
Copy !req
48. Last night about 2:00 a.m.
Copy !req
49. My telephone rang.
Copy !req
50. I answered it, but no one spoke.
Copy !req
51. I didn't even hear
the receiver being put down.
Copy !req
52. Not even a dial tone,
just silence!
Copy !req
53. Well...
Copy !req
54. the same thing happened
Copy !req
55. a few moments later.
Copy !req
56. Well, miss keene,
Copy !req
57. that storm just about ruined
our service.
Copy !req
58. We've been flooded
with complaints
Copy !req
59. about fallen wires
and bad connections.
Copy !req
60. I'd say you're pretty lucky
your telephone works at all.
Copy !req
61. Would you say someone
was trying to call me
Copy !req
62. and the connection was bad
because of the storm?
Copy !req
63. That's as good an explanation
as any right now, miss keene.
Copy !req
64. I'm sorry,
I wish I could be of more help
Copy !req
65. but, oh,
the way things are right now!
Copy !req
66. Well, is it likely
to happen again?
Copy !req
67. Well, I couldn't say,
miss keene, it might.
Copy !req
68. It depends on what's causing it,
of course.
Copy !req
69. If it does, though,
you just call me
Copy !req
70. and I'll have a special check
run on it.
Copy !req
71. Will you do that?
Copy !req
72. Oh, very well.
Copy !req
73. Good. I'll wait
to hear from you, then.
Copy !req
74. Good-bye, miss keene.
Copy !req
75. Good-bye.
Copy !req
76. Margaret?
Copy !req
77. Yes, miss keene?
Copy !req
78. Did you call me
last night?
Copy !req
79. At 2:00
in the morning?
Copy !req
80. Huh, no, ma'am,
not me.
Copy !req
81. Well, you might have checked.
Copy !req
82. But I don't pay you for nights,
do I?
Copy !req
83. Here's your mail,
miss keene.
Copy !req
84. Oh, thank you.
Copy !req
85. An advertisement.
Copy !req
86. Another advertisement.
Copy !req
87. The light bill.
Copy !req
88. Oh, how stimulating.
Copy !req
89. You just heard
from your sister
Copy !req
90. a few days ago,
didn't you?
Copy !req
91. Three weeks.
Copy !req
92. Three weeks and two days
Copy !req
93. to be exact, margaret.
Copy !req
94. Has it been
that long?
Copy !req
95. Yes, it has.
Copy !req
96. Nobody cares
whether I live or die.
Copy !req
97. Oh, sure, they do,
miss keene.
Copy !req
98. You don't understand.
Copy !req
99. You don't know
what it's like to be alone.
Copy !req
100. Oh, now, miss keene.
Copy !req
101. Hello?
Copy !req
102. Hello?
Copy !req
103. Margaret?
Copy !req
104. Come here, quickly.
Copy !req
105. What is it,
miss keene?
Copy !req
106. There's nobody
on the line.
Copy !req
107. Listen, listen.
Copy !req
108. See if you can
hear the sound
Copy !req
109. of a receiver
being put down.
Copy !req
110. Not a thing.
Copy !req
111. Wait!
Copy !req
112. Oh, well,
it doesn't matter.
Copy !req
113. I'll call miss finch
Copy !req
114. and have them
check on the line.
Copy !req
115. You really think
it's necessary?
Copy !req
116. Yes, I do.
Copy !req
117. Am I to have calls like this
coming in all the time?
Copy !req
118. But if it's a breakdown,
they'll fix it.
Copy !req
119. There we are.
Copy !req
120. All comfy?
Copy !req
121. Thank you.
Copy !req
122. Don't let those calls
upset you, miss keene.
Copy !req
123. I'm sure whatever
the trouble was
Copy !req
124. the repairmen
have it fixed by now.
Copy !req
125. Oh, why not leave
the receiver off the hook?
Copy !req
126. Then whoever it is
can't call...
Copy !req
127. though I'm sure
nobody will.
Copy !req
128. Thank you.
Copy !req
129. I'll see you in the morning,
miss keene.
Copy !req
130. Good night.
Good night.
Copy !req
131. Hello?
Copy !req
132. What?
Copy !req
133. Who's there?
Copy !req
134. Who's on the line?
Copy !req
135. Who is it?
Copy !req
136. Who's there?
Copy !req
137. Hello?
Copy !req
138. Hello!
Copy !req
139. Hello?
Copy !req
140. Hello?
Copy !req
141. Hello?
Copy !req
142. Hello?
Copy !req
143. Miss keene, are you sure
it was someone saying "hello"?
Copy !req
144. It could've been...
Copy !req
145. I tell you it was someone.
Copy !req
146. The same one who kept
listening to me saying "hello"
Copy !req
147. over and over again
without answering back.
Copy !req
148. The same one who kept making
those horrible noises.
Copy !req
149. You have no idea though
whether it was a man or a woman?
Copy !req
150. I've already told you
there's no way of knowing.
Copy !req
151. It might be either one.
Copy !req
152. And you're positive it wasn't
someone on your party line?
Copy !req
153. Oh, don't you think I don't know
the people on my party line?
Copy !req
154. Oh, sure you do, miss keene.
Copy !req
155. Of course you do.
Copy !req
156. Well, I'll, um,
I'll have a man check your line
Copy !req
157. as soon as possible.
Copy !req
158. The crews
are pretty busy right now
Copy !req
159. on account of the storm, but...
Copy !req
160. but what am I to do
if this... person calls again?
Copy !req
161. Try to get their name,
if you can.
Copy !req
162. If you do that, why, we can take
immediate action, you see.
Copy !req
163. Yes.
Copy !req
164. What did she say?
Copy !req
165. Nothing.
Copy !req
166. It's obvious she doesn't
believe a word I told her.
Copy !req
167. Oh, now.
Copy !req
168. So far as she's concerned,
Copy !req
169. I'm just a nervous
old biddy
Copy !req
170. falling prey to
my imagination.
Copy !req
171. But she's find
out differently.
Copy !req
172. I shall just keep on
calling her and calling her
Copy !req
173. until she does.
Copy !req
174. If I don't let them call,
Copy !req
175. I... I shall never find out
who it is.
Copy !req
176. Hello?
Copy !req
177. Hello?
Copy !req
178. Who is this?
Copy !req
179. Hello?
Copy !req
180. Who is calling?
Copy !req
181. Hello?
Copy !req
182. Please, who is calling?
Copy !req
183. Hello?
Copy !req
184. Can you hear me?
Copy !req
185. Hello?
Copy !req
186. Please!
Copy !req
187. Hello?
Copy !req
188. Margaret!
Copy !req
189. Margaret!
Copy !req
190. What is it?
Copy !req
191. It's a man who's been calling.
Copy !req
192. How do you know?
Copy !req
193. He's just called me!
Copy !req
194. What does he want?
Copy !req
195. I don't know.
Copy !req
196. He just keeps on saying hello
Copy !req
197. over and over again.
Copy !req
198. "Hello, hello, hello."
Copy !req
199. Miss keene,
you've got to stop this.
Copy !req
200. You're working
yourself up over...
Copy !req
201. over nothing?
Copy !req
202. I didn't say that, miss keene.
Copy !req
203. You were going to.
Copy !req
204. Now, miss keene, I wasnot.
Copy !req
205. I think I better
Copy !req
206. put you
in your...
Copy !req
207. I don't want to be
put in my bed!
Copy !req
208. I want to find out who
this terrible man is
Copy !req
209. who keeps calling me!
Copy !req
210. What did miss finch
tell you?
Copy !req
211. She told you it was
a bad connection,
didn't she?
Copy !req
212. It's not a connection.
Copy !req
213. It's a man!
Copy !req
214. I didn't say
it wasn't.
Copy !req
215. But if he keeps
saying hello
Copy !req
216. obviously
he can't hear
Copy !req
217. because of a bad
connection!
Copy !req
218. He can hear me.
Copy !req
219. I know he can hear me!
Copy !req
220. Then why don't
you hang up?
Copy !req
221. You don't
have to listen.
Copy !req
222. Just hang up.
Copy !req
223. Is that so hard?
Copy !req
224. Over and over again.
Copy !req
225. "Hello, hello...
Copy !req
226. hello."
Copy !req
227. There.
Copy !req
228. Now you don't
have to listen.
Copy !req
229. Nobody can call you,
isn't that right?
Copy !req
230. Leave it that way.
Copy !req
231. If you want
to make a call
Copy !req
232. just hold down
the arm a second
Copy !req
233. and dial.
Copy !req
234. Isn't that right,
miss keene?
Copy !req
235. Miss keene?
Copy !req
236. Why does he keep callingme?
Copy !req
237. Why?
Copy !req
238. Oh!
Copy !req
239. Where are you?
Copy !req
240. I want to talk to you.
Copy !req
241. Where are you?
Copy !req
242. I want to talk to you.
Copy !req
243. No. No!
Copy !req
244. Where are you?
Copy !req
245. I want to talk to you.
Copy !req
246. Leave me alone!
Copy !req
247. Leave me alone!
Copy !req
248. Your play.
Copy !req
249. What?
Copy !req
250. Oh.
Copy !req
251. What's the matter
with the girl?
Copy !req
252. She promised a man
would check today
Copy !req
253. and now the afternoon's
nearly over.
Copy !req
254. Maybe he doesn't
have to check here, miss keene.
Copy !req
255. Your play.
Copy !req
256. Shall I answer it?
Copy !req
257. Hello?
Copy !req
258. Miss keene?
Copy !req
259. No, this is
margaret phillips.
Copy !req
260. Here's miss keene.
Copy !req
261. It's miss finch.
Copy !req
262. Yes?
Copy !req
263. About those calls
Copy !req
264. you say you've been receiving,
miss keene.
Copy !req
265. Sayi've been?
Copy !req
266. We sent a man out to trace them.
Copy !req
267. I have his report here.
Copy !req
268. And?
Copy !req
269. He says he traced the difficulty
Copy !req
270. to a fallen wire
on the edge of town.
Copy !req
271. Fallen wire?
Copy !req
272. Yes, miss keene.
Copy !req
273. Do you mean to tell me
that there were no calls?
Copy !req
274. Miss keene, there is no way
Copy !req
275. that anyone could have phoned
from that location.
Copy !req
276. But I'm sure
a manhascalled me.
Copy !req
277. There must be a phone there.
Copy !req
278. There must be some way
he could call.
Copy !req
279. Miss keene, the wire
is lying on the ground.
Copy !req
280. Tomorrow, our crew will put it
back up, and you won't be...
Copy !req
281. there must be some way
he could call me.
Copy !req
282. But there is no one out there.
Copy !req
283. Out where?
Copy !req
284. Where?
Copy !req
285. Miss keene, it's the cemetery.
Copy !req
286. What's wrong, miss keene?
Copy !req
287. What is it?
Copy !req
288. What's the matter,
miss keene?
Copy !req
289. I wish
you'd tell me
Copy !req
290. why you want to come
out here, miss keene.
Copy !req
291. You know it
isn't good for you.
Copy !req
292. If you hadn't made
such a to-do
Copy !req
293. I'd never have come
in the first place.
Copy !req
294. What can there possibly
be out here to see?
Copy !req
295. Over there.
Copy !req
296. Here.
Copy !req
297. Miss keene.
Copy !req
298. It's him.
Copy !req
299. Miss keene, what's the matter?
Copy !req
300. It's him.
Copy !req
301. Brian.
Copy !req
302. Who? What are you talking about?
Copy !req
303. Brian.
Copy !req
304. My fiance.
Copy !req
305. Your f...?
Copy !req
306. He died... a week
before we were to be married.
Copy !req
307. We were in a car together.
Copy !req
308. I insisted upon driving.
Copy !req
309. I was always insisting
upon everything...
Copy !req
310. determined to have my own way...
Copy !req
311. dominating him.
Copy !req
312. He always did what I said.
Copy !req
313. Always.
Copy !req
314. I lost control of the car.
Copy !req
315. I drove straight into a tree.
Copy !req
316. Brian went...
Copy !req
317. right through the windshield.
Copy !req
318. He was cut to pieces.
Copy !req
319. I was crippled.
Copy !req
320. And now he's trying to reach me.
Copy !req
321. And now he's trying to reach me.
Copy !req
322. I can talk to him.
Copy !req
323. I won't be lonely anymore.
Copy !req
324. Miss keene, I...
Copy !req
325. I can't leave you like this.
Copy !req
326. I'll be all right.
Copy !req
327. Good night.
Copy !req
328. Good night, margaret.
Copy !req
329. You'll call me if you need me?
Copy !req
330. Yes, I will.
Copy !req
331. I'll be home
all night.
Copy !req
332. Yes. Good night.
Copy !req
333. Good night, margaret.
Copy !req
334. Brian?
Copy !req
335. Brian, are you there?
Copy !req
336. Brian?
Copy !req
337. Brian, if you're there,
speak to me.
Copy !req
338. It's elva.
Copy !req
339. Elva!
Copy !req
340. Please speak to me, it's elva.
Copy !req
341. Please say so...
Copy !req
342. you said
Copy !req
343. leave you alone.
Copy !req
344. I always do what you say.
Copy !req
345. But, brian!
Copy !req
346. Brian, I didn't know it was you.
Copy !req
347. I thought...
Copy !req
348. brian, please,
please don't leave me.
Copy !req
349. Please speak to me.
Copy !req
350. I didn't mean to say...
Copy !req
351. brian?
Copy !req
352. Brian!
Copy !req
353. According to the bible
Copy !req
354. god created the heavens
and the earth.
Copy !req
355. It is man's prerogative,
and woman's,
Copy !req
356. to create their own particular
and private hell.
Copy !req
357. Case in point, miss elva keene
Copy !req
358. who in every sense
has made her own bed
Copy !req
359. and now must lie in it
Copy !req
360. sadder, but wiser
Copy !req
361. by dint of a rather
painful lesson in responsibility
Copy !req
362. transmitted from...
the twilight zone.
Copy !req
