Original subtitles

No! No...

No, shush. Can't anyone help me?

No, "ope"-

no.

Johnny, Johnny...

Johnny!

You are yelling in your sleep again.

Same dream?

Try to go back to sleep.

Johnny, look at this.

- What you got there? - I don't know.

It's a cactus gourd.

Oh! Huh.

What is it?

Don't you hear that?

What?

Johnny.

Shh, shh.

Oh, what is it?

I don't know.

I hear something but...

It's strange.

Johnny...

Oh...

It's horrible.

Johnny, come on, let's get out of here.

Johnny... Johnny...

I'm sorry, cath.

I keep forgetting they turn everybody else off.

God, it's ugly!

I'll get rid of it. We can get going.

Johnny, can we skip the caves for today,

and go right onto the slopes?

I'd kinda like to make the last tour, cath, if we can.

Is it so important?

Well, of course not.

It's just my work.

That's what the weekend is all about, remember?

I remember something else.

This weekend is also supposed to be an overdue honeymoon.

You're right. I can do it later. Come on.

Oh, Johnny. You're right.

Your work is important. We'll catch the last tour.

- You sure now? - Yes.

Absolutely?

Come on.

While we're in the cave,

please stay together.

No scrambling. No wandering off.

Remember, there are hundreds of unexplored

passageways in these caverns.

Water drips from the ceiling, for long periods of time.

Each drop of water that falls...

Wow!

- You okay? - Fine.

Hey, see how they're going up those stairs around there.

- C'mon! - Huh?

- Why? - Nobody can see us.

Doing what?

Something down here makes me feel primitive.

You haven't got the nerve.

Try me.

You're on, lady.

Oh, no!

Cathy!

Cathy, Cathy!

Johnny, please. Hurry!

Cathy!

Are you alright?

Yes, they're crawling all over me.

They're mites, honey. They feed on skin.

How do we get out of here?

Cathy, I don't know.

The best thing we can do is wait.

Sooner or later, they'll figure we're missing.

They'll send somebody for us.

Johnny! Johnny, please let's get out of here--

Cathy! Cathy, no.

Best thing we can do is stay put.

I'm sorry.

Don't be silly.

Our honeymoon was getting a little dull, anyway.

What is it?

Same thing I heard before.

The bats.

I don't hear anything.

Quiet.

One of them is getting closer.

No!

Pull it out! Pull it out!

Get it off me, please.

Get it off!

Are you hurt?

It's nothing, Cathy. It's nothing.

Are you sure? You sure you alright?

Listen.

Hey!

Oh god, no!

Hey... anybody down there?

Oh...

Hey! Hey! Down here!

Help! Please!

Down here!

'Imanl are you alright? - Yes.

Okay, relax. We'll have you out in no time.

Cath, don't do--

why?

- Never mind, it doesn't matter. - Tell me.

You wanted to examine it for rabies! Oh, I'm sorry.

Don't worry about it.

Stupid, why did I kick it away!

Yup! You could've had some good stew, you know.

Yuck.

It tastes just like white meat of tuna,

that's what they tell me.

Oh. You're disgusting.

Have you ever thought about what we looked like to a bat?

I don't care about bats.

I care about you.

And I care about you.

And bats.

Look at this, isn't that beautiful?

Yeah.

Oh, what a run that's gonna be. Magnificent!

I'm so glad, I'm really happy.

Johnny, please.

Are you alright?

What's wrong?

I don't know.

You were here acting so funny.

Kinda crazy.

Honey, what are you talking about?

- Honey... - Are you sure you're alright?

I'm fine.

Woo!

What was that?

Are you ready for this?

Let's go.

Woohoo!

Oh!

You're really brave!

Oh, god.

- Brace yourselves, we're next. - Oh no.

I'm barely thawed out from the slopes.

$23 a day.

It's almost worth it.

- You're ready for a drink? - Oh, am I.

Thanks.

- I love you. - To us Johnny.

Johnny.

Leave me alone.

Your hand! Johnny.

Johnny, what's the matter with you?

You have to see a doctor.

- What for? - Your hand.

It was an accident.

I don't care what it was, please come on. Please--

-lt's not serious. - Not serious?

Alright. I stop at a first aid station,

first thing in the morning.

- Oh yeah, looks pretty good. - Not so bad.

Oh! What're we gonna do about that?

That can wait.

You're the doctor.

But promise me something.

You start treatment just as soon as you get back, huh?

You mean the pasteurella treatment?

Look you two, there is a minimum 30-day incubation period,

so there is no reason to spoil the weekend.

Is it true that the cure is sometimes worse than disease?

Nothing is worse than rabies.

Thanks a lot doctor.

- Johnny, I think-- - cath.

Honey, it's not that big a deal.

It can wait till next week.

I don't think a week will make any difference.

Lam going skiing.

Oh, don't let anything stop you, doctor. He's only a patient.

Take it easy, cath.

You're being as irresponsible as he is.

You're working on a Grant and preventive medicine

and you won't take it yourself.

You 're not doctors, you're children.

You ready to go, doctor?

I'm ready, doctor.

- Where're we going? - Hospital.

By five miles down the hill in town, come on.

- You happy now? - Yes.

You prefer this to another day in the slopes, do you?

Don't worry about it, it's strictly a routine procedure.

Maybe, but you're strictly special,

and I do not want anything to happen to you.

Cath, nothing's happening.

Mrs. Beck, um... I can only handle one emergency a day.

Would you mind waiting in the solarium?

Go ahead, cath. Lt'll only take a minute.

Okay.

- You ready? - Yeah.

Numero uno!

19 to go.

- What is it? What's happening? -L'm burning up.

- Oxygen. - Burning...

Can you hear me? Can you hear me?

You're having an allergic reaction. Try to breathe slowly.

Sodium pentobarbital.

Huffy, hurry'

I think he's alright now.

Prepare a room for Dr. Beck.

- He will be staying here, nurse. - Yes, doctor.

It's a hell of a ride.

Or reaction.

Never seen anything like that before.

My rabies is settled?

From what i understand,

allergic reaction can produce identical symptoms.

It's ironic, isn't it?

The odds are probably one in a million,

and where does it hit?

A researcher and immunologist. Terrific.

I guess the bats are getting even.

Yeah.

What're your opinion about the rest of the shots?

Do you mean do i think you're gonna have

another reaction like this?

I doubt it. I think that was just the initial jolt.

The rest of the shots should have minimal effect.

Good.

Dr. kipling?

Dr. kipling.

Dr. kipling, I'm sorry to bother you.

You promise not to follow me out anymore?

Okay.

You know, you're right.

I'm kind of a ski bum.

Doctor, one of the nurses. Told me what happened.

She shouldn't have done that.

How serious is it?

You mean his reaction to the serum?

Yes.

I wouldn't call it serious at all.

But is that it?

Huh?

Is it possible there may be other side effects?

Yes, there is a possibility of side effects,

but I wouldn't worry about it.

But it was a violent reaction, wasn't it?

Yes, it was.

Obviously, he is allergic to the serum,

but that's not unusual in itself.

The pasteurella treatment can produce

reactions very, very similar to rabies.

Like a sudden shift in mood, manic depression, paranoia,

inability to swallow...

But what's what I don't understand, doctor.

He had those reactions, everything you're describing,

before he took the serum.

I don't know what you mean.

It was really strange.

On the gondola and in the jacuzzi,

he had these sudden fits of anger.

It was completely without any problems one minute

and then the next he was like a mad man,

completely out of control.

And he wasn't even aware of it.

Mrs. Beck... I want to assure you of one thing.

Whatever you saw in him,

believe me, it wasn't rabies.

The incubation period is one to five months.

Doctor, what if he does have rabies?

I wouldn't worry about it.

We got an early start on the treatment.

Even if it's not fatal,

there is a good chance of brain damage isn't it?

Come on, let's go.

Listen you hypochondriac,

I know you're why you're dating me.

Free medical samples.

Who is there?

What you want?

Is this your ring?

Aii student nurses please report to the auditorium.

The lecture is about to begin.

A lot of excitement this morning.

What happened?

There is nothing for you to be concerned about.

Nurse, I'm a doctor. I'm concerned.

Right now you're a patient, doctor.

Something happened. What was it?

It was... an accident.

What kind of accident?

Final call. Aii student nurses...

The night nurse...

She...

-Fell. - How bad?

She's...

Morning, darling.

How did you ever get that off?

It took two strong men and a boy to get it on.

Cathy, I want you to find a psychiatrist.

Why?

For once in your life, just do the hell I ask.

Can't you see I'm in trouble.

But the doctor says you're doing fine.

Find somebody, Cathy. Now.

Well, of course darling, I will.

Just as soon as i get you settled.

What are you talking about?

In the motel.

They won't let me leave, Cathy.

Didn't you talk to the doctor?

He says you don't have to stay here, I already signed you out.

'III

I think I should stay close to the hospital, for a while.

But there's no reason.

I want. Ls that reason not enough?

Okay

Dr. Clark, report to surgery. Dr. Clark to surgery.

Okay.

No.

It's not okay.

I'm coming home with you.

You don't have to.

Yes, I do.

Why don't you go on ahead?

And find us something for a nice and quiet dinner?

Okay?

- You do feel well enough? - Yeah.

And forget the psychiatrist.

- It's fine. How much is that? - Twenty dollars.

Thank you. Gift wrap it, please.

I'd do.

You alright, doctor?

Sargent ward, sheriff's department.

How you feeling, doctor Beck?

I'm fine.

How did you know my name?

I've been following you, doc.

Just missed you at the hospital.

You sure you alright now?

Look, sargent. I'm taking a series of preventative shots.

I don't need to stay at the hospital,

and you're not a doctor.

Suggest what can I do for you?

Hey, take it easy, doc. All i wanna do is talk a little.

Now, if I had a pretty young wife like yours,

I'd brought home something like this.

There's no telling what she might think.

You know what I mean?

Well, I guess you gotta run hood, dispatcher

sargent, you'll know where to find me.

Hold up.

What I wanted to mention is,

I'm checking that accident at the hospital.

Last night.

I don't know how I can help you.

Well, you see, your room is very close to where it happened.

I thought you might have heard something. Know what I mean?

Not a thing. I was asleep.

Yeah, I figures, what with all you've been through.

The reason why I ask is...

I found this near the body.

It's yours.

I don't understand how it got there.

Yes, that's what I keep wonderin' too.

Same way I keep wonderin' how it got off. You know what I mean?

I do not know.

Try it.

Really puzzler, ain't it?

Are you still high?

I guess so.

I think I got slipped oregano again.

Attention!

All cars in the vicinity of Blair high school.

The janitors informs of a group of vandals

rampaging into the school.

Relay 604911716...

It's late.

My old lady would hit my head for this.

Listen, I had a great time.

Whoopee.

It's alright. It's alright. It was just a nightmare.

You're alright. You're alright, darling.

Alright.

It was only a bad dream.

It's like the others. Just a dream.

That's all.

A dream.

- Who is it? - Sergeant ward.

What do you want, sergeant?

I'd like to talk to your husband.

Can it wait till morning, sergeant? It's 3:00 A.M.

- No. - Get back to bed, Cathy.

I'll handle it.

Alright sergeant.

What's so important in the middle of the night?

It's kind of an inconvenient hour, I guess

but there are some things that has been botherin' me.

And I thought I better talk to you.

- About what? - A murder.

A murder?

This little girl.

Had her throat ripped out. Couple of hours ago.

And what does that have to do with me?

Well nothing, doc.

Just talking to a lot of folks.

Been in all night, have you?

Yes, of course. My wife will verify that.

She don't have to do that, doc.

You're not on the stand. Know what I mean?

You haven't told me what you wanted, sergeant.

Oh yeah. Well...

You ever seen this before?

The girl ripped it off whoever attacked her.

Are you implying that's mine?

I guess if you've seen one band,

you've seen them all.

Right, doc?

Night.

Is everything all right?

Take these.

They'd knock out an elephant.

They'll help you with the nightmares.

I'm not sure if they were nightmares.

Look...

I'm not a psychiatrist. Far from it.

But I think what happened is pretty obvious.

You were running a very high fever,

and you wandered out of your room.

And you spotted the nurse laying on the floor, dead.

You panicked.

You rushed back to your room.

Now, you're in the state of near coma.

Then you distorted the sequence of events.

In your mind, you killed the nurse.

Why?

You're a doctor, you didn't help her. Guilt.

Same reason, I'm here and not up on the hill.

What about the man I killed?

I smashed his brains out.

Let's look into that, huh?

In your condition...

You picked up a fully grown man,

flying him over your head, like some kinda rag doll.

You had a high fever.

That's what produced the nightmares.

Very real to you, but images.

They were incredibly real.

That's not unusual, is it?

You know as well as I do,

high fever can produce hallucination.

What about that?

There was no flesh left on my fingers.

I can't get back on now.

Fever, man.

You're perspiring heavily. It slipped off.

That's what you think all that means?

I don't know.

It's your dream.

He wants to stay in the hospital until the treatments are over.

Alone.

I'd go along with him if I were you, Mrs. Beck.

He's had a severe trauma. It's pretty rough.

What can I do to help?

Give him all the support he needs. No pressure.

I think his mind will ease up.

Just as soon as these treatments are over.

Morning.

- For you. - Thank you, sweetheart.

- You want one? - No, not now.

- I talked to your mother. - You didn't.

You promised to call her, remember?

What did you tell her?

I told her you were fabulous.

Aha, and she didn't insist on talking to me?

Oh, she did but I said you were asleep.

I said the honeymoon was too much for you.

Now we're gonna keep on hearing about grandchildren,

you know that?

- Well? - Well.

Johnny, what's wrong?

I'm tired. I better get a little rest.

I'll call the doctor.

No, I want a little rest, that's all.

- Johnny, you-- - just get the hell out of here

and leave me alone!

Johnny!

This isn't happening.

It's in my mind. It's in my mind.

Please, no.

I must stay.

I need help.

Johnny?

Johnny!

Johnny, please open the door!

I want to help you.

Johnny!

Johnny?

Stolen ambulance.

Suspect: Patient in hospital clothes.

He is wearing pajamas and white robe.

Height 6 feet, weighs 160 pounds,

Caucasian male. Apprehend, do not shoot.

I repeat, do not shoot.

Patient is heavily drugged,

from treatment received at the hospital.

This is sergeant ward.

Who is the patient who stole that ambulance?

Male, Caucasian-

what's his name?

Beck, Dr. John Beck.

This is unit one in pursuit of stolen ambulance,

now headed south on 14th street.

All units converge.

Alright, pull over.

Pull over!

Pull over!

This is ward. All cars converge at mill road.

Stolen ambulance westbound.

Suspect homicidal.

Of course, he was with me all night.

Every minute together, never apart?

What's the point of this, sergeant?

Very young girl killed the other night,

over king's trailer park.

She died pretty much the same way

as the nurse the other night.

But that was an accident.

I don't think so anymore, Mrs. Beck.

You recognize this?

No. Should I?

Found in the trash barrel at your motel.

Sq?

Well, the man who killed that girl was wearing it.

I told you Johnny never left my side.

Tell me this. When Dr. Beck ran off, he--

he didn't run off.

He was hallucinating and that was from the medication.

But do you believe this medication

could have made him violent?

Oh, Johnny has never done a violent act in his life.

Yeah. Yeah. Probably never stolen an ambulance

and smashed it into bits in his life either.

You know what I mean?

Gotcha!

I-- I'm sorry sir.

I thought you were somebody else I knew.

Drink?

No, thank you.

You don't look like the kinda fellow

who runs around wearing only pajamas.

You getting a cold or something?

What's the matter?

Oh.

You're beginning to know the real me.

You are one of the few people,

who's fortunate enough to know the real me.

'Cause I'm a free man.

Free, free, free as a...

Shit.

You know, the whiskey and the alcohol,

and all that stuff is depressing.

Who do you think would want to take all this stuff,

if you did not want to be depressed?

If you're so... free and happy, you don't wanna stay depressed,

you wanna stay free and happy. Right?

So, if I'm so free and happy,

I would never even take a swig from this bottle, right?

Alright.

I don't normally only take swigs, man.

I drink it from the bottom of the bottle.

And I get more and more depressed.

I get so depressed, I don't even remember anything.

And I get by.

For a night, or a day,

or maybe a couple of nights. You know.

That's what I call real freedom, man.

Ow!

Something wrong with your hand?

I slipped and fell, I think a couple nights ago.

I don't remember.

Let me see that.

Bingo!

You found it and let go for Christ's sake.

Your hand is broken.

Are you a doctor?

So you're a doctor and you dropped right on out.

I understand it.

I sure do.

You know too much.

Anybody who knows too much, has got to drop out.

You're quite a philosopher.

That's me. Jack of all thoughts, master of none.

You know, when you walk along the railroad tracks, you--

you got a lot of time to think.

Just thinking, no doing.

If there is the slightest chance that I might start doing,

I just naturally reach for a bottle.

I can say for sure that there's only one thing

I can do better than anybody else in the world.

Stink. Right?

Hey doc, have yourself a swig.

You look horrible, c'mon.

I know this stuff is bad, but not that bad.

Attention. Apb. Dr. John Beck.

Roll all units. Every man.

Yes, sir. Every man.

But harmon is at the hospital with his wife,

she just had a baby.

I don't give a damn if she had quintuplets.

Everybody.

Doc, you should see your face.

It's fluorescent.

What's going on here?

Doc!

We are brothers.

Doc! Doc!

Professional job.

Yeah. A humane act, if I ever saw one.

Come on, you can't walk the streets all night.

Where could he be, sergeant?

You let me worry about that Mrs. Beck.

We'll find him.

Come on.

Okay.

Thank you, sergeant.

You're welcome. Here, let me do it.

I know how rough it must be, Mrs. Beck.

It's a bad time to be alone.

Thank you.

Ah, forget it.

Everybody needs a friend once in a while.

Anything I can do.

Sensitive young girl like yourself,

needs all the protection she can get.

But I'm all right, it's Johnny.

Oh yeah, him too.

Tell me something, Mrs. Beck.

How long have you been married?

It's almost a year.

No, thank you.

Things have been going pretty good, have they?

It's been very good. Johnny and I are very happy.

Sure you are.

I gotta ask those kinda questions in my business.

He's a physical type of person, would you say?

I don't know what you mean.

Likes sports, does he?

That sort of thing.

Oh yes, he's pretty athletic.

He ever hit you?

Hit me?

Yeah, folks with a temper sometimes do things like that.

You know what I mean?

No, sergeant.

Johnny has never hit me.

And I don't like what you're getting at.

What am I getting at Mrs. Beck?

We've been through that.

Johnny's-- Johnny is incapable of hurting...

Or killing anyone.

Oh, Johnny. Oh, Johnny!

There, there.

It's gonna be all right.

Please...

You gotta help him.

L'll do the very best I can, Cathy.

No!

Listen to me, lady.

L'm the only one who can help him.

Get out! Get out of here!

Now, don't you worry about a thing, Mrs. Beck.

I'll find him.

Oh, Johnny.

The cave that we see on the left,

is where early explorers came into the cave.

The rocks on which those people climbed give us an idea

just how rough cave exploring may be.

The rocks fell from the ceiling just a few years ago.

By few years I mean somewhere in the neighborhood of eight

to ten thousand years,

which is a small period of time in the total period

of the cave has been here.

But it's far enough back where we can say that

everything that's was loose or likely to fall,

fell thousands upon thousands of years ago.

We are safer here from falling objects

than we would be on the surface outside this mountain.

We don't actually let anyone climb on the rocks

to make people feel more safe

but really to allow people's eyes to adjust

to the light conditions within these caverns.

Everybody has a pretty good idea how rocks are developed...

Ambulance on way r9, follow up.

Car four, negative.

Car six...

Hello! Can I help you?

Uh, yes, I'm doctor Winston.

Can you tell me

where the anti-rabies vaccine is stored?

- In the cabinet. - Thank you.

You new around here too?

Doctor? Doctor Winston?

May I help you please? What's the matter? Dr. Winston?

Dr. Winston, please.

Doctor I'll make a few calls.

Please.

Doctor! No! No!

Don't scream, understand?

Give me the key.

Of what?

The refrigerator.

But there's no serum in there.

It's too late now. Give me the key.

Quickly.

All right.

Open it.

Don't kill me, please.

Open it.

Alright.

Where is he?

He's in the laboratory.

You said, you might have found him?

John on recording: My name is John Beck.

This is my last will and testimony,

my final communication with the outside world.

Many will deny as possible for the phenomenon,

the miracle which has forever altered my being

emotionally, mentally, physically.

A few perhaps will understand.

I hope that you Cathy will be one of them.

You are my one sorrow,

the only regret that i take with me.

Always remember I loved you.

The first symptoms of my metamorphosis

were strange and horrible, medically indescribable.

But now that the metamorphosis is swift,

quite smooth, painless and natural,

I welcome it.

It is only then that I'm fully the other being,

this self-dominance personality.

Human form and human emotions.

No, I won't listen.

Don't you see, he's taken on guilt

for something he doesn't even understand.

How can you believe something so irrational?

You heard the same thing we heard, Mrs. Beck.

That was a confession.

A confession?

From someone pumped full of medication?

He doesn't know what he's saying.

I think this is more complex than this, Mrs. Beck.

How he got there, that's out of my bailiwick.

All I know is

that you're listening to the voice of a killer.

Something within my psyche has emerged,

has helped me reach a new consciousness,

a sharp awareness of truth,

untouched by human greed or ambition,

free from the negative and hypocrite.

Can you understand?

I'm part of everything now,

our journey to a belonging.

Oh god! Turn it off.

Please turn it off.

Do you think he really believes he's changed, doc?

Yes.

You say that kinda funny doc,

like maybe you believe it yourself.

I don't think you quite understand.

He believes it

therefore it is true.

Don't.

Johnny.

Oh god.

You did come back.

Keep your hand off the light, Cathy.

It's all right, no one can see us.

I don't want you to see me.

Johnny...

Johnny, I love you.

Stay back!

That's all finished, Cathy.

What are you talking about?

Something you can never understand.

Oh Johnny, please.

Let me try.

Nothing can be the same Cathy, can't you understand that?

Nothing.

Let me help you.

Go home.

Alone?

I couldn't go without you, Johnny.

Go home, Cathy.

But it's your home too.

No.

What are you saying?

The caves are my home.

Who is it?

You haven't seen your husband, have you?

No, of course not.

You mind if I come in?

Yes, I do sergeant.

L'm in bed, it's very late.

I had a report he was seen in the area.

Good night, Mrs. Beck.

Goodnight.

I've got to go.

Oh!

It's all right. You're all right.

You look fine, Johnny.

I can't control it, Cathy.

I do change.

No! You don't change, Johnny.

You think there's a change of some kind

but that's because of the drugs.

It's in your mind.

Don't you see?

It's nothing more than an allergic reaction.

I'm leaving, Cathy.

No! The police may be watching.

Johnny. Johnny, I love you.

No, cath--.

No...

I do, I do.

And you love me too.

Mrs. Beck!

Mrs. Beck! Are you all right?

Mrs. Beck. Mrs. Beck--

you must've been having a nightmare!

Are you okay, now?

Oh, yes, of course, I'm sorry.

Why-- it must've really been a bad one.

Well, listen,

I'm heading back to the office now. But if you, uh...

If you need me or

if you have another one of those nightmares, you--

you just give me a yell, okay?

I'll be over there.

All right, now. And don't you worry. Take it easy.

I got no other place to go, believe me.

Cathy: Thanks.

Okay? Good night, Mrs. Beck.

Sergeant ward, headquarters. Do you read me?

Sergeant ward, headquarters.

Yeah! I read ya!

Mrs. Beck was here looking for you.

She was hysterical. She kept babbling you killed her husband.

She got a ranger to drive her to the cave.

- When? - A few minutes ago.

And l'll take care of it. Ten-four.

You're gonna come along with me, peacefully.

You know what I mean?

Sergeant, is my husband all right?

I don't know what he is.

Well, what happened?

I don't know what happened?

All right, that's enough.

Let's go

no.

Listen.

I don't hear anything.

Strange.

I hear something but--

I don't know.

What's wrong with you?

Nothing you would understand.

I'm ready, sergeant.

Oh, my god!

They're attacking us!

What the hell's wrong with you?

Can't you see what's happening?

Yes, I see.

Emergency! Emergency! This is ward.

Emergency! Emergency!

Hey! What are you doing?

Goodbye, sergeant.

Get off! Get off!

God!
