All language subtitles for Alfred Hitchcock s05e37 Escape To Sonoita

Good evening.

Television has done much to raise the
level of weather prognostication.

The addition of the weather girl has not
improved the predictions, but she does

make the mistake more enjoyable.

Those of you in the northeast sector...

can expect the weather to continue.

I must warn those of you in the West
that there is a cloud on your horizon.

So, if this is a rain cloud, you can
expect rain,

perhaps.

We got that radiator fixed before we
started for hell's sake.

That old engine's about ready to burn
up.

That's why I'm going to stop.

We'll be lucky if them pistons haven't
swelled up a lot.

They won't, not if we take it easy.

All the crummy places that get stuck in
hell's basement sure would be the worst.

I sure wish there was a patch of shade
to stop rain. She'd cool down a lot

faster. Oh, sure, sure.

How about a canopy from the Biltmore or
something? There's a lot of shade out

here in this stinking desert.

No use heating yourself up more just
because you're here.

We only got 85 more miles to go.

The last 50 is enough to tear the guts
out of a bulldozer.

Somehow get the idea, Bill, you don't
like it.

Oh, I love it.

I love it out here.

Balmy breezes, beautiful cactus. I love
it. It's just... Thanks.

Can I help any?

Oh, no, not much.

As long as we got to stop to cool the
truck off, we might as well cool

off, too.

How do you... Lousy weather, this
miserable equipment.

It's my job.

As long as I can remember.

Well, another thing. How could you let
that chiseling Max Bell stick here with

this lousy piece of equipment?

It's the best I could afford.

Well, ain't you gonna paint it? Ain't
you gonna cover up that sign?

Well, I'll get around to it. No hurry.

Sure shows you ain't no... You ain't no
businessman. You go around advertising

for Max Bell, he don't pay a nickel for
it.

And it ain't worth a nickel, either.

It don't matter to the healers or the
sand fleas what it reads.

It sure don't matter that some fool out
here is scratching around for a living

in this overheated sandbox.

All you do is haul their loads back and
forth back. You want more? More water?

You want me to fill up a swimming pool
for you to cool off in?

Why not? You got a big enough beach out
here for it.

Ah, it's just still pretty hot.

I guess we'll have to wait a while
longer.

She want to walk back 50 miles to the
highway.

Well, like 25. We've been rolling kind
of slow.

She couldn't do 10 miles right now, but
a couple hours, taking it easy, she'll

do all right.

Sure.

Sure.

Stopping water all the way back to town,
huh?

Right.

And if you don't like... When you get
back, you can draw your time and quit.

I won't hold no hard feelings.

All right, as long as you keep bringing
it up, I will.

Ajax needs a driver on the Phoenix to
Denver run.

Starting when?

Monday.

It's a steady job.

Good pay, good highway.

Looks like dust back down on the road.

Dust, so what?

I mean dust in the air like a car
traveling.

They're really moving.

Too fast on this kind of stuff.

Must be tourists. Got lost.

Better slow down.

You all right, mister? Yeah. Yeah, I'm
all right.

But I didn't see no stoplight.

How about your buddy?

Hey, is that your truck?

Yeah. Well, what's the big idea of
parking in the middle of the road? Shut

Lemon. You hit that rock like you was
aiming at it.

Yeah, but there ain't no sign you should
park in the middle of the road.

I'll check your car.

Yeah, in a minute. But first, you got
any water?

Over there on the running board.

You got lost, huh?

Well, let's put it this way, Pops. I
know where I was, but I don't know where

am. Yeah, you see, we're supposed to
take a shortcut.

Don't count your buttons.

Sure could use some of that water.

Help yourself.

There was a sign back there where you
turned off the highway warning there

wasn't any water for a hundred miles.

Didn't you see it?

Sign?

He can't read.

That ain't so.

I'll check your heap.

The wheel's sure gone.

Drive shaft's broken.

Who is that?

It's a friend of ours.

Lemon's fiancee, sort of.

You in the habit of taping up your
friends, mister?

No, I'm not, but Lemley is.

It's a joke.

You don't like the feel of her
fingernails in his hide, do you, Lemmon?

Well, the dame bugs me.

She needs water.

She's in bad shape.

Yeah, she's worked up quite a thirst.

She's all right when we left Phoenix
this morning.

You mean to say she hasn't had a drink
of water since then?

That's what I mean to say.

Well, as the saying goes, it's my turn
now for a little aqua.

Ain't she got pretty hair?

Real pretty hair.

Rest is for you.

Hey, Ma, she drunk it all up.

There's another bag there on the front
fender.

Take it easy, miss.

You've got to help me. Those men...
You're Stephanie Thomas, aren't you?

Those are the men who kidnapped you. I
heard it on the radio.

Good for you, pops.

Neither of you guys want to be heroes.

Go sit here and fix the car.

Why don't you let this girl go?

You got the money and $100 ,000.

As the saying goes, Pops, money ain't
everything.

She'll come in handy if we have to run
another roadblock.

There ain't no roadblocks in the desert.

Okay, okay.

So let's just say Lemon likes her, huh?
Now stop with the questions.

How far to the border, Pops?

About 90, I reckon. Straight across, far
side of this basin.

How far back to the main road where we
turned off?

Fifty miles, a mite more.

Some water, please.

Drive shaft's busted, Marsh. We can't
fix it.

Please, can I have some more water?

Glad I'm sure you don't need her for a
hostage, so don't give her any water.

Shut up!

Gotta think this thing out.

No chance of fixing the car, huh?

You get a better chance getting Edgar
Hoover's job.

All right, all right.

Go get our stuff out of the car. Can I
have some more water?

Yeah, kid.

Would you like me to give you a drink of
water?

Huh?

You want a little drink?

Just one little drink. Huh?

Come on. Just one little drink?

Cool, boy.

You try that again, lover boy, and
you'll be just a relic. Don't do me no

favors, Morris. Let me do it.

Two.

Why?

I just remembered I got my last one up.

But don't get ideas.

Three's all we need.

You touch that bag and I'll drop you
right where you are.

For that bag of water?

Sure, he'd kill for that bag.

It's the only water there is.

Hey, love boy.

You still want to be a hero with a doll?

Hey, maybe she'll settle for a nice...

little kiss instead of a drink.

All right?

Now you're talking. Shut up.

Let love boy do it.

He'll show you how.

Go ahead, love boy.

Now, wait a minute, Mars. You told me
that... Yeah, I got a chance and you

couldn't make it.

Now let's watch Sir Gallyhead.

I'm doing you a favor.

Don't you appreciate?

Marge, please don't let them.

We got more important business.

Can you still drive?

Yeah.

You can drive this truck?

There ain't no rig I can't drive.

Okay. You can get the green stuff out of
the car and let's roll.

Where does this road hit the border,
Pops?

That sign you missed warning about water
pointed this way to Sonoita.

What's between here and there?

Just what you see ahead there.

And an Indian village about 40 miles off
to the right.

Any water between here and the border?

Didn't I just tell you? Not a drop till
you get to Sonoita, that ten miles off

the side of the border.

But there's plenty of water there.

Can this truck of yours make it?

Treat her right, she'll make it. Always
has.

You gonna leave us here to die?

I reckon you will.

You'd have killed that girl at the
border anyway.

You guys wanted to have me let the girl
go, and that's what I'm doing.

Hey, Marsh, let's trade this rig in for
a car, huh?

With 50 grand apiece, who needs it?

Come on, let's burn them and get out of
here. Shut up!

I'll do some figuring.

How far could you make it, Pops?

Three of you.

In this heat, without water, we'd be
dead in five miles.

You, uh, couldn't walk out, huh?

Nobody in this country ever made ten
miles on foot if his water was gone.

We'd be better off if you shot us.

Quick.

Yeah, that's right, Marsh.

Why ditch him out here?

Listen, you dope, I gotta do the
thinking for both of us.

We got three shots left.

We waste them on these jerks, what
happens if we run into the law?

We buy some more.

Not till we get to a town.

And maybe what happens before we get
there?

Yeah, yeah, I guess you gotta figure all
the angles, huh?

It's 50 miles back to the highway, 90
miles straight ahead to Sonita.

They can't make it.

You mean you're going to leave us here
to die?

To bake alive?

Sure.

Sure.

But with your hero, sweetheart, I guess
Pop Sear can tell you all about it.

How you die of thirst.

Yeah. I hear your tongue swells up real
big.

Like a ripe banana.

Yeah, but there's no need to talk about
it either. Oh, I think I'm going to like

it. When I hit that first bar at
Sodaita.

I remember all of you with pleasure.

Now get this junk started, Lemon.

The three of you, start walking.

Out there toward the car, where I can
see you.

So what? We're still here.

Why did they have to leave us here like
this?

Why couldn't they have killed us?

Now, now, don't go getting yourself
upset.

Main reason was, I suppose, because I
lied to them.

We'll make it out all right.

Without water?

There's not even a barrel cactus within
miles.

You said you lied to them.

What did you say?

I told them it was better than 50 miles
back to the highway.

It's only about 25.

What difference does that make? We still
can't go anywhere without water.

Well, the way I figure, there's probably
four or five gallons of water in the

radiator of this car.

Can we drink it? Well, maybe it won't
taste very good, but after a while...

Complaining already?

It'll cool off enough to drink by the
time we need it.

After it's dark and cool, I'll walk out
and get help.

25 miles, that's a long way.

Those high -heeled shoes of yours wasn't
designed for hiking, but I've made it

before. Any hiking to be done, I'll be
the one that does it. I know this

better than you do. Just because you're
getting old is no sign you're getting

mean. Besides, I probably won't have to
walk it all the way. Not when you can

see a signal fire for 100 miles in this
country.

Signal fire?

What's going to burn out here?

There's gas in this tank.

Soak those seat cushions, they'll burn
real bright for a long time.

Well, if I'm going, I better get
something to carry the water.

I ain't so good at planning.

Some things I know and some things I
don't.

I just didn't want none of us to get
killed over that water bag.

This inner tube will hold about three
quarts of water.

That's what I call real good planning.

I never would have thought of it myself.

It's about time.

Yes, I guess it is.

I figure I can average about two miles
an hour walking.

Should put me out in about 12 hours.

That ought to about do it.

Everything ready for the fire?

I doubt it all would get me.

Well, let's get it started.

You ought to be able to see that blaze
all the way to Sanford.

Dad?

Dad!

Dad, come back!

Dad!

What's wrong?

Where's your father gone?

He's an old man. He shouldn't try to
make... Please!

Don't leave me.

Oh, desert camel.

through the head.

That means there's only two bullets
left.

Marsh must have taken Lemon's gun.

Well, let's get after him. What makes
you certain he didn't reach Sonowita?

That punk was too anxious about water to
use any of it in the truck.

All right.

Let's go on a few more miles.

The deep sand will get him. That's where
the engine would start to heat up fast.

It was headquarters.

The girl's in the hospital and she's
okay.

Tell them to send an ambulance.

You and the truck. Throw your guns out
and get down.

I must have abandoned the truck.

The water bag's gone.

Roy, you look down the culvert over
there. I'll go up the other side.

See you, son.

Well, all we need is a new engine, Dad,
and we'll be back in business.

Will you call headquarters, will you?

I'm going to have it repainted.

White and blue.

Andy Davis and son.

Water contractors.

The weather in the Sonoita area
continues fair.

Very fair.

Now in the central portion...

there's a low pressure area

which

leads me to predict high velocity winds
in the southeast

and cloud

formations in the east central section

Good night until next time.
