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