All language subtitles for Hitchcock s02e18 Final Escape

Good evening.

How do you do? I find myself here as the
result of a misunderstanding.

without trace.

There is one consolation to drowning in
wine.

He had a smile on his face as he went
under.

However, I'm not complaining.

I always wanted to have my tennis shoes
dyed, though I didn't plan on having

burgundy -colored feet as well.

But life must go on.

Tonight's story is about a man called
Perry and begins after a minute

tedious.

Unless you'd rather stay here.

He don't look so dangerous to me, Cap.

Where'd you find him?

Oh, taking a dip in the lake.

Can't blame you, boy.

Sure is a pretty day for it.

You should have found out about our
hospitality before you came here robbing

banks, boy.

It'll be a long time waiting to spend
all that money.

Is it true what the papers say?

Nine banks between here and Boston?

Close to half a million cool, crinkly
dollars?

Your partner must be having one sweet
time spending his share.

Now, there's a way out of here for you,
a smart way.

Tell me who your partner is.

Tell me who he is and where he is.

And return the money.

Think about it.

I'd never want that kind of money. Just
the way I feel.

What any man needs is a decent home and
a steady job.

Things our boy here couldn't appreciate.

Appreciate? Appreciate what?

The next ten years of mush, beans, and
sowbelly? Get in the truck.

You trustees sure live easy as a hound
dog on a porch.

What are you doing, Doc?

Planting some fresh stuff in your
garden? Well, I find myself in

here, Captain. I turned my back and the
deceased or the grave or both of them

started spinning around, around, around.

Now I can't tell the head from the foot.

Well, either way, he isn't going to
complain.

Tell me what I'll do for you, Doc.

I'll give you a hand setting that
marker.

If you give me a shot of that. Something

that

Doc, isn't he?

Never saw a man hate to bury people much
as he.

Just can't keep away from that bottle on
burial day.

That is a prodigious shot, my friend.

Having you around is like... Dying of
thirst. That stuff hits like four sticks

of dynamite.

Why don't you try easing that pure grain
of the little water duck?

Now, how are you going to tell a

head from the foot? You tell me that.

That's north.

All heads point north.

You have the wisdom of Solomon, my
friend. I vow to you.

Huh?

This place is full of holes.

It's perilous to life and limb.

You all right, Doc? Oh, of course I'm
all right.

You sure? Sure, I'm all right.

I stopped by to tell you about your
granddaughter, but maybe I better wait

tomorrow. Elisa, what happened? Tell me,
what happened? Nothing happened, Doc.

Nothing but good. Judge Benson was over
for dinner last night.

Said it looked like maybe Elisa might be
taken into the county hospital.

She'll be a fortunate girl if she is.

You think so, Captain? Now, you really
think so?

It'll be the best thing all around for
you, for Bart, especially for Lisa. You

know that.

I guess you're right, Captain. Yeah, I
guess you're right. Sure I am.

She'll be looked after. She'll be well
taken care of.

Now, let's get this marker in place.

All right.

You better start back to camp, Doc.

And keep your nose out of that jar.

Alcohol and a weak heart don't mix.

I don't want to spend the rest of my
night looking around for a place for

In there with the rest of your friends.
Now, don't you worry about my heart.

It's hitting on all cylinders. And if it
does stop, I've got my own place picked

out. In that corner right over there.

Well, let's not rush it, huh?

I had enough running around for one day.

Looking for this boy.

Why? Did you do something?

Tried.

He's got to break out of every prison
they put him into. A matter of

But he's learning fast.

Only reputation means anything around
here is mine.

You try beating him out of here just one
more time and you'll finish your

sentence right in there.

No supper for him. No smoke.

Nothing.

You know, you're real simple.

No one ever got away from Tolman.

Ever.

Get him shackled and make sure it's a
good job.

Get two hours' work out of him every
hour.

Take some of that steam out of him.

He's got a dozen warrants waiting for
him and thinks he's a pretty sharp boy.

Thinks he can outsmart us and beat it
out of here.

Keep an eye on him and don't lose him.

All right.

That'll help him.

Come in.

Step right up there.

Hold your arms.

Perhaps if I refresh your memory, you'll
have a better understanding of the

purpose of this meeting.

You've had experience enough to know
that attempting to break out of prison

felony.

Last night I made out a complaint
charging you with just such a felony.

My duty, of course, is...

de facto warden of this camp.

What do you want from me, Captain?

Patience. Patience, Mr. Perry. We have
time.

As I was saying, you're entitled to a
fair trial.

Impartial.

You can avail yourself of this legal
right.

As a matter of fact, under ordinary
circumstances, I'd urge you to do just

But your luck holds strong, Mr. Paul
Perry.

From the district attorney's office.

See?

Here we are.

Should the defendant agree to waive
trial by entering a plea of guilty, the

county will be saved considerable court
expenses, and the defendant will profit

in terms of a greatly reduced sentence.

Now, suppose you insist on going to
trial.

You'll be found guilty of attempted
escape, of course.

That means five years on top of the ten
years you're already serving. Do you

understand? Fifteen.

That's a lot of years.

However... If the defendant pleads

guilty to the charges, the district
attorney's office guarantees a sentence

one year.

I have a free choice.

Well, as your legal guardian and friend,
I hope your choice is the one I'd make

for you.

One year, huh? That makes 11 all total.

A man can serve 11 years quicker than he
can 15, can't he?

Oh, just sign the papers.

You can read them if you want.

You can use my pen.

Wherever you see the excellent.

May I go now?

Just one moment, Mr. Perry.

You're now serving 11 years.

With time off for good behavior, you'll
be out of here in seven years and four

months, won't you?

That's not too bad.

Now, as a man who's been arrested a
number of times and has been in and out

number of prisons, I'm sure you'll
realize the fact that...

I'm the one empowered to dispose of your
good time off as I see fit.

Well, I see fit to take away all your
good time off.

I want you here for at least 11 solid
years.

Get him out of here.

Who walks the stair without a care and
shoots so high in the sky?

Drops up and down just like a clown,
everyone knows it's Trinky. The best

present yet to give or get, the kids
will all want to try.

The hit of the day when you're ready to
play, everyone knows it's Trinky. It's

Trinky, it's Trinky, 400's the best of
the toys. It's Trinky, it's Trinky, the

favorite of girls and boys.

And look at these.

Here's a more wonderful slinky toy.

Here is a slinky hippo.

And here is a slinky elephant.

And here is a slinky caterpillar.

A slinky toy, a slinky toy, we'll run
and play all day.

A slinky toy, a slinky toy, my favorite
toy, you say.

Here is a slinky toy for every girl and
boy.

I need somebody to give me a hand down
here.

All right, Doc.

Here. Right this way.

Well,

fresh as new paint and full of
turpentine, too.

This is what we need, huh?

Go along with Doc, you. He's got some
chores for you.

Hey, Doc.

If he slacks off, give a yell. I'll be
around.

No, I'm going to need six of these.

We make them kind of generous, don't we?

Room for two of me in there.

Well, that comes of having an abundance
of cheap lumber and cheap labor.

And cheap life.

Well, come on, let's get going.

Now, drag it into the morgue, right at
that door, right straight through there.

I'll bring the cover.

Can you hear me? Yeah, I'm all right.

Yeah,

that's... That's... Okay, give me a
cigarette.

Yeah, please.

Oh.

I'm kidding.

Too old for even light work.

These palpitations got me down.

Better?

Oh.

Oh, that's good.

Gee, you're the young fella that tried
to escape from here yesterday, aren't

you? You don't look like a desperate
criminal to me.

Well, that's what the newspapers call
you.

Do you know what the newspapers are
like?

What's your hurry about getting me?

You hardly been here a week.

Yeah, but that world out there, Doc,
it's got a little more to offer than

can find in here.

I suppose it has.

I used to feel that way 29 years ago.

29 years? What are you waiting for?

Well, now there's a chance.

Now, I might get let out of here
legitimately next year.

And... Sit down.

Thank you, sir.

Oh, look.

Look, bring that...

Restless coffins feed them all.

Hello, Paul.

You're not allowed to have any watch
worth more than $10. Now, that's a copy

my offer of restitution.

Won't do you any good, though, Paul.
They've already turned this down.

This place is horrible.

Is the rest of it like this?

I'll be somewhere getting you
transferred out of here. Look, I want

calm down, boy. You get me out of here.
Calm down, boy. Listen to me.

I can't help you, boy. You keep getting
into trouble.

You're still a young man.

Things will change.

In the meantime, you just do your work
and keep your nose clean.

And above all else, keep out of trouble,
will you?

Paul, Paul, listen to me.

I'll even make an appeal to the
governor.

Maybe we'll get some kind of break.

They had enough time.

All right, visiting hours are over.

Goodbye, Paul.

of my office I want to see for a minute.

Captain.

Commander.

Not clinical like your juice, but just
as mellowing.

You're getting pretty friendly with that
Paul Perry fellow, huh?

He ain't no friend of mine.

I mind my own affairs.

Now, don't get worried, Doc.

I want you to do me a special favor.

I want you to get friendly with him.

He's looking to use you.

That was the idea behind that paper toy.

He's going to plan another escape.

Encourage him, Doc, and keep me posted.

I never ratted.

I'm asking you to do this as a friend
who wants to see you free and who wants

help your family.

Well, if that's the way you want it,
Cap, that's the way I want it. Look, I

another shot.

Sure, Doc.

Just about to suggest myself.

I, uh... I saw George Benson at church
this morning.

He showed me a letter from the county
hospital commissioner.

I'm afraid, Doc, it's going to be a long
time before they have room for a leaser

at the hospital.

There's a waiting list from here to City
Hall, even with pressure.

Everybody's using pressure.

You know, it's a funny thing, Cap.

Elisa's entitled to more than just
charity from a county hospital.

Now even that little bit's denied to
her.

You see what I mean?

Just don't give up, Doc.

We'll keep on trying.

Money's all Elisa needs.

Money for a specialist.

Money to give her a chance at a healthy,
normal life.

You see what I mean, Cap?

It's just as well this thing didn't work
out.

Elise is entitled to more than charity
from a county hospital.

You'll get over it.

And we're not giving up.

You've got a pretty much maiden here,
haven't you, Doc?

Oh, yeah, I guess you could say that.

That's my reward for 29 years of
faithful servitude.

You know, that was a pretty nice thing
you did for Lisa today, giving her that

little toy.

You see, my son does odd jobs around
town.

He hardly gets along.

I earn 12 cents a day in here.

And I need $5 ,000.

Everybody needs $5 ,000, Doc.

Yeah, but...

I

can earn $5 ,000 from you.

I can get you out of here.

Do you write a letter?

to your pal or your lawyer, and you tell
him to send $5 ,000 cash

to my son, and I'll mail a letter
myself.

What are you getting at, Doc?

How do I know you can get me out of
here?

Are you trying to set me up, you and
your friend Tolman? I don't have to

you all, but you've got to trust me.

Because I tell you, I can get you out.

The magic wand? Detachment of Marines?

Look, Doc, with Tallman on my back, how
could you get me out?

Now... Now, just suppose... Just suppose
something like this

happens.

A con in here dies.

And before the funeral detail arrives,
you straighten the coffin

with it. We put the coffin on my truck.

We take it out to the cemetery and we
bury it. Then the funeral detail comes

back to the prison here. But I stick
around until the grave mark is in place,

you see, Paul?

You want to bury me?

Are you out of your head, Doc? I want
out alive.

Sure, I'm going to bury you.

But as soon as that funeral detail's out
of sight, I dig the coffin up. I pry

open the lid. You pop out.

And then we refill the grave.

What am I supposed to do while I'm in
the coffin? Hold my breath?

There's plenty of air until I get to
you, Paul.

You're going to take my word as a doctor
for that.

That doesn't sound right to me, Doc. Too
many problems.

How do I get into a coffin with a
corpse? How do we get a corpse? How

frisks?

I've got too many chances to take before
I even get started.

You think of something simple, and
you've got yourself $5 ,000.

Simple? Of course it is simple, Paul, if
you'll only think about it.

Now, the only problem I see is how
you're going to get in the coffin with

corpse from wherever you are.

The coffin will be right there by the
door, waiting to be taken out to the

cemetery.

That's a big gamble.

It means escaping inside of a prison in
order to escape outside of a prison.

But I could do it. Sure you could.

And don't worry about the frisks.

You're being frisky.

I have complete charge of everything
from the time a con dies until a grave

marker's in place.

Tallman just signs a death certificate
right on my say -so.

I'm the only person who's sure that the
right man's being buried.

Give me his son's address.

about mistaking the iodine for the
castor oil.

It'd be disastrous to treat cuts and
bruises with castor oil.

It'd be a worse disaster to treat
indigestion with iodine.

Just visiting around. How about a sip?

Well, I couldn't turn down a fine offer
like that now, could I?

One of the guards tells me that Alicia
and Bart left town and

went back east to some fancy hospital.

That's right. I didn't get a chance to
talk to you about it.

She's going to have an operation.

Oh, suddenly?

Bar hit it lucky on the stock market?

Why don't you tell me, Don?

You trying to hide something from her?

Of course not.

I borrowed the money from an old school
buddy of mine, and now she can afford

the authorization.

Old school buddy wouldn't happen to be
old jailbird Paul Perry now, would he?

Of course not. He's been avoiding me, I
told you that.

Yeah. The truth is, I suspect you're
lying.

When you lie to me, Doc, you're just
another con. Remember that.

And remember, I got a ton of shackles.

Every one of them your size.

That's it.

Rib cages all smashed.

Of course, without x -rays, it's hard to
tell just how much damage has been

done. Well, do you want to send him back
to the main prison hospital?

No, no, no. You move him, you kill him.
No, everything's being done for him. It

can be done.

You make it sound like his clock's about
to stop.

Get back to work, you two.

Take these with you.

Right there, fellas.

Okay, come on now, let us out.

Come on.

You mean to give us a hand?

Rather knock it up with a chisel every
time.

Doing it with the trees, doing it the
hard way. That's my opinion.

You're all done?

Send your opinion to the newspapers.
Come on, let's go.

Crazy doing a thing like this.

By all the laws of logic, you should
have lost your foot.

Why did you take a chance like that?

I take a chance every time I draw a
breath.

We all do.

The main thing is I'm here.

I only hope our friend there is as ready
as I am.

Well, he's not as lucky as you are.

All his bones are broken. Yours are
intact.

With this cast, everybody will think
you've got a broken foot.

But don't be too optimistic about
walking.

Walking is going to be more painful than
you think.

It'll be some time before you walk
normally again.

Well, that's the best news I've heard
all day.

It's not that I don't like you, boy. I
just don't trust you.

I don't trust you even with a busted
foot.

I'm shipping him back to the main
prison. He'll be transferred sometime

tomorrow.

Hours, maybe.

Minutes, maybe.

He might last until tomorrow.

Boston beans.

Concentrated energy.

Here, you better try and eat some.

It may be a long time before you get
your next meal if your luck holds out.

Been four hours, Doc.

Much longer.

And I still, like I said...

I don't know.

It's getting late.

He'll be locked up in another three
hours.

If he's not gone by then, I'm finished.

Now, you heard Tallman.

He wants to keep that no -escape record
of his. He wants to get rid of me.

All we can do is wait.

Look, Doc, he's gonna die anyway.

Now, couldn't you do something to help
him out of his pain?

If you don't have the belly for it, I'll
do it. You make one move to kill this

man, and I'll go straight to Tallman. I
swear it. One move.

Killing isn't part of our deal, and
killing isn't going to become a part of

deal. When this man dies, if he dies,
I'll carry out my part of the bargain

exactly like I said I would. You make
one move to kill him, and you kill this

whole deal.

I didn't mean it that way, Doc.

Not the way you're putting it.

Well, let's have a drink.

to get somebody to take him to the
morgue.

Jess, don't you worry about my drinking,
old buddy.

I can handle it. I understand everything
that's going on just as clear as...

Listen, on top of the coffin, you'll
find a sheet.

It's a white sheet commonly known as a
shroud.

Now, when you get in the coffin, pull
that right up over your head. That's

very important.

Oh, look here.

Look, I've got something for you.

I got you tobacco and matches and
chocolate.

It's a gift from my old granddaughter.

Doc!

Doc!

Why can't you listen to me just once?

You're drunk!

Doc, you know what you're doing? You're
finishing it off for me.

Doc, look, you think I killed that guy?
Huh?

You understand me? All right, sir. Well,
come on.

Come on, get a hold of yourself.

Down to your bunk and sleep it off. You
understand?

I'll see you in the morning when you dig
me up.

Right? Right, right, right. Now, don't
forget the shroud.

And there'll be plenty of air.

I'm going to sleep.

Fuck, old buddy.

All right, let's go.

Show up here as soon as it gets light.
You're on the burial date.

Hey, I never met a guy as careless as
you in all my life. Leaving half the

up like that. Hey, and that lid ain't
even nailed down. I'll fix that.

How come a big, tough, stick -up man
like you's scared of a dead man?

You're talking real strong with that
guard around.

Ah, get the work all of in. You two stop
arguing.

We're not arguing, officer.

We're just exchanging notions.

I don't see what difference the nails
make anyway.

Guy's sight ain't going anywhere.

All right, let's go.

All right, take it easy on that end and
quit shoving. Come on, come on.

Oh, the head bone getting unconnected
from the elbow.

The elbow... Ah, you're complaining
again. Man, this guy's been complaining

since the time he was born.

You know something? He didn't complain
about being sent to prison. Oh, come on.

Come on. Let's go.

The vitamins out of those beans last
night.

I don't feel a thing this morning.

Man, you've been using up all your
energy doing too much talking. All

here we go.

Heave!

Heave!

Heave!

Heave!

Heave!

All right, let's get this going.

No point in burning up there.

I promise you, Doc.

I'll give you another $5 ,000. Another
$10 ,000.

Another $20 ,000 back. Just hurry.
Anything you want.

It's my fault.

Why was I so stupid as to trust him?

Captain's friend.

He should have known.

I didn't mean that, Doc.

I'm sorry. Forgive me. Forgive me, Doc.
