All language subtitles for Alfred Hitchcock s02e36 Father and Son.eng

Good evening.

Have you seen a small boy with an apple
on his head?

I know he's here somewhere, but my eyes
aren't what they used to be. Oh, oh,

there he is.

I missed again.

I think I'd better quit.

I even missed the boy that time.

Tonight, the flickering shadows on our
magic lantern screen...

Tell a story of life in the big city. It
is called Father and Son.

What's this supposed to be for?

Well, you said you had to have some more
money. I said a couple of quid. Well,

you ain't going to get it.

I shouldn't even give you this much. Oh,
now, look, Dad.

Sam, I told you the last time.

There ain't going to be no more money. I
know what you're telling me, Dad, but

if you'd just listen a minute. I don't
want to listen.

I've heard it all before.

You.

A grown man.

It's time you stood on your own feet.
What's the matter? Are you afraid if you

give it to me there won't be enough left
for you to get drunk on? Now, don't you

talk to me like that. All right, all
right. I didn't mean anything. Never

what you meant. You just listen to me.

I may be no great shakes.

Maybe I'm not.

I never claimed that I was.

But let me tell you, the worst thing I
ever did was let you go on the way

been doing.

You'd get a job quick enough and hold it
if you didn't have me to turn to every

time you run short.

What are you talking about? I got a job.

All I asked you to do was lend me a
couple of quid until payday.

Pay day? What pay?

You haven't been to work all the week.

You didn't even bother to quit this
time.

Just didn't show up yesterday.

Who told you that?

They telephoned for you here yesterday,
so it's no good trying to lie about it.

I wasn't lying. I just didn't want to
worry it like I'd another one.

But there wasn't any use in my staying
in that job. It wasn't right for me.

Well, what is, eh?

What is?

You, a grown man of 35, you've never
held a job for more than two weeks in

your life. Well, you're a great one to
talk.

What did you ever do but stay half drunk
most of the time?

Well, if I take a drink or two, it's to
help me arthritis.

Some days I can hardly move without so
bad.

Don't give me that. You're an old lush.
If you wanted me to be so much, why

didn't you try being something yourself?

Well, I did try, but somehow I... I
don't seem to have made a very good job

it. You can say that again.

Why, you never even ran the shop until
Mum died.

Spent most of your time down at the pub
getting yourself soused.

Now, all of a sudden, butter wouldn't
melt in your mouth.

Well, you don't fool me, none.

Well, whatever I have or haven't done,
you're not going to turn out the same

way. Don't worry, I won't. No, you're so
right you won't. Because I ain't

letting you.

No. I'm going to make you do something
with your life.

Will you stop acting like I didn't want
to? I got plans, see?

Yeah, and you're going to need them.

Because you ain't got me.

No, I've given in to you for the last
time.

Yeah, well, let's close up now. It's
past six.

What about the money?

No, Sam.

No more money.

Look, Dad, tomorrow I'll do whatever you
want, but tonight I've got to have a

couple of quid. I have to have it, you
understand that?

Look, Dad, if I don't get it from you,
I'll have to get it from someone else.

And you may not like what I have to do
to get it.

Well, I haven't liked anything you've
done for a long time now, so why should

this be different?

No, at least if you do get it, you'll be
getting it on your own.

And that'll be something.

Now leave me alone.

I'll leave you alone, all right. Because
do you want to know?

You make me sick to my stomach.

We're closed for tonight. Joe, wait!

Gosh, let me in. Where did you come
from?

It's us.

Come on. I'll ditch it.

Here.

No, no more now.

Give the girl a chance to get her
breath, will you?

I'll be back later.

Don't go away.

Oh, it's you. What do you want? Sit down
a minute, will you? I told you to stop

bothering me, Sam. It's no go. I have to
talk to you.

Oh, right.

Now, what are you going to say you
haven't said before?

Don't talk like that. You know how I
feel about you.

I ought to. You told me enough times. Is
it my fault if I'm a little short of

money just now?

You've been short of money ever since I
knew you.

Anyway, it doesn't much matter.

I won't be here after tonight.

What do you mean?

I'm going away.

Tomorrow. Who with?

What kind of a way is that to talk?

I'm going on a little holiday.

Going down to Brighton for a week or so.

Not alone.

I know you may.

I ought to have my head examined wanting
you knowing what you are.

I do, and there's nothing I can do about
it.

You want to hear something, Sam?

If you was worth it, I'd open your face
with me nails, but you ain't.

All you're good for is whining about not
having any money.

And you haven't the guts to do anything
about getting some.

If I get the money, will you go with me?

I'll even marry you.

Oh, don't do me no favours.

Answer me. What happens if I get the
money?

Tell you what.

Come back and ask me when you've got
some.

That should mean I won't have to see you
for a long time.

Good boy, Sam.

Fifty pounds?

Go away.

Look, Mr. Schiller, you know me.

Yes, I do, all right. And I wouldn't
lend you a shilling, let alone fifty

pounds. I'll put up the shop for
security.

What shop?

My father's. Can't put up what you
haven't got?

Oh, he's an old man. He can't live much
longer. When he dies, it'll be mine.

Do you know something, Sam?

If anybody else had made that remark,
I'd worry.

I think maybe they meant to hurry up
things a bit.

But even an old man doesn't have to be
afraid of you.

Now clear out of here.

I don't even like to look at you.

I thought I told you to get out of here.

What are you waiting for?

Feel better, Gus?

Good.

How long is it since you had anything to
eat?

Ah, too long.

One doesn't get to eat regular when
you're trying to keep one chump out of

police. No.

No, I heard they were looking for you.
But I thought by now you'd have skipped

the country.

Ah, not a chance.

Too tight to move.

It's a laugh, ain't it?

After all the things I've done, they're
after me for something I didn't do.

And killing at that.

Couldn't kill anyone if I tried.

No. But if they can't prove it... Well,
what difference does that make?

With my record, they wouldn't have to.

No, I wouldn't have a chance.

Well, what do you think you'll do now?

Well, stay here if you'll let me.

How long have we been friends, Gus?

About 40 years.

Don't ask silly questions.

Thanks, Joe.

40 years.

Don't seem possible.

I don't feel as old as that would make
us, do you?

Well, I didn't until tonight.

You're all right.

I'm the one in trouble.

All right.

My son just called me a drunk.

A failure?

You said it made him sick to look at me.

Sam always had a nasty tongue. Even when
he was a kid.

What made him say a thing like that?

Just because I wouldn't give him any
more money.

Good for you.

It's about time he stopped sponging on
you.

Let him make it for himself for a
change.

You're right.

No. I ain't giving in to him this time.
No.

No.

No matter whatever happens, I ain't.

Well, now.

Now we must find a place for you to
hide.

I wish there was somewhere safer than
the cellar. I couldn't take the chance

going out again, even if there was.

Not with 50 quid at stake.

50 quid? Yes, reward for information
leading to my arrest.

Plenty of people in this neighbourhood
sell anyone out for that much.

Yeah.

You'll be quite comfortable down there.

There's a bed, and I'll bring you around
a couple of blankets.

What's the matter?

Nothing.

I was thinking, of all the people I've
known, you're the only one I can trust

not to turn me in for that reward.

I guess I haven't always kept the best
of company.

Oh, now, stop worrying.

No one's going to turn you in, because
no one knows you're going to be here.

How about Sam?

He lives here. He'll have to know.

Not even Sam. There's no reason why he
should find out.

He never goes down in the cellar.

Says it's too dirty.

You never told him you kept a beer down
there, did you?

No, no, no. You go on down.

I'll get the things together.

Right.

Who is it?

It's me, Dad. I forgot my tea.

Oh, all right. I'll have to know.

You back early?

Yes, I had to talk to you. Something
came up.

Let's go in the back, eh? All right.

So, that's the story.

If I can put up my share, I'll own half
the business.

It'll mean a whole new start for me.

What kind of a business is it that your
friend has, Sam?

Well, it's a...

Something in the export -import line. I
don't know much about the details yet.

You can't go putting money into
something you don't know anything about.

Oh, well, naturally, I'll find out all
about it before I give them the money.

The main thing is I have to have it
tonight, you see. I can't take a chance

losing out to someone else.

How much money would you need, Sam?

A hundred pound.

What?

A hundred pound? Have you gone crazy?

Where would I get a hundred pound?

All right, all right, don't get so
excited.

I don't have to have it all at once.

If I could have half of it, that'd do
it, say, 50.

I don't keep five pounds in the shop,
let alone 50.

But you can get it.

Schiller would lend it to you if you put
up the shop, the security.

He wouldn't lend it to me.

You tried to borrow it from Schiller?

Well, I didn't want to come back here
unless I had to, after what happened

earlier.

But you did come back to me, same as
always.

Well, I had no one else to go to.

If I wouldn't give you two pounds...

What makes you think I'd give you this
sum, 50?

Well, I thought you might change your
mind when you knew what I wanted it for.

You always said you wanted me to make
something of my life.

Well, this is my chance.

Don't believe it.

I don't believe a word of it. It's just
another trick to get more money out of

me. And you're not going to get it.

All right.

I was just giving you your chance.

Oh? For what?

To help me.

Now, what are you up to, really?

What's this all about?

I told you.

Nice. Not a word of truth in it.

Still doesn't matter. I won't give it to
you anyway.

No. I mean what I said earlier in the
evening.

Look, Ted, if you're angry about that, I
didn't mean anything.

I just lost my temper.

I know. And it doesn't matter what you
said.

It only matters what I said.

No more money, Sam.

Is that your last word?

Yes.

Dad, I want you to be sure and
understand one thing.

Getting this money means more to me than
anything in the world.

I'll do anything rather than lose out on
it.

And I know how to get the money.

How?

How? It doesn't matter, but there are
ways.

Then I think you should find one of
them.

For yourself.

Right -o.

I'll do that little thing.

Well,

no one can say I didn't give him a
chance.

That was nice of you.

Well, what's that supposed to mean?

Nothing. Are you going to split on this
chap for the reward?

Well, why shouldn't I? He's a murderer,
isn't he?

How do you know?

Well, that's what they want him for. He
belongs in jail.

Where do you belong for doing it, Sam?

I don't know what you mean.

I just want the money for us.

Don't you realise what this means?

We can go a long way on £50.

Not as far as you think.

You're not acting very funny. What's the
matter with you?

Let's just say I don't like any dealings
with the police.

Oh, that's what's bothering you, is it?

For a moment I thought you were backing
out on me because you didn't like the

way I was getting the money.

I never minded before where anyone got
money they spent on me.

I'll say you didn't.

Listen, Dux, we make a great team, you
and me.

This is just the beginning.

When are you going to do it? Right now.
I would have gone before, only I was

afraid you mightn't be here by the time
I'd finished.

I wanted to be sure you'd wait.

I'll wait.

You go on.

I'm on my way.

You won't be sorry.

We're right for each other.

Two of a kind, that's a... I'll be there
in an hour.

How long does it take them to pick
someone up? They've been gone an hour.

Oh, lots of things could have delayed
them.

You might as well sit down and take it
easy. I don't want to sit down and take

it easy. I just want to get the reward
money and then I'm getting out of here.

Now, is that reasonable?

How can you collect a reward before we
even know your information was accurate?

I saw him with my own two eyes, I told
you.

Well, don't doubt it for a minute, but
we sort of prefer to see him with our

eyes.

Now, if you'll just sign this statement,
when they do bring him in, we'll be all

set.

What does it say?

Just what you told us. That you saw a
man you believed to be Gus Harrison, who

was wanted in connection with the
murder, enter a shop and not come out.

Subsequently, you saw somebody inside
the shop lock up for the night.

As a result, you concluded that he's
hiding out there.

That's true.

I'll find it.

They want you in the other room, Sarge.
Right -o.

You right here, Mr.

Saunders.

I'd have to ask you not to do that.

I wasn't doing anything. I just wanted
to find out what's going on. Have they

picked him up or haven't they?

I wouldn't know about that.

Well, I want to know.

Well, what happened?

You've got to identify him.

Why do I have to do that? I told you.

You've still got to identify him.

Bring him in.

Is this the man you saw letting Harrison
into his shop?

That's the man.

Where's Harrison?

He wasn't there.

What are you talking about?

Gus Harrison.

My men searched the whole of the
building, including the shop. They

find a trace of his having been there.

But that's not possible. I saw him
myself.

You saw him go in, possibly. That
doesn't mean to say that he stayed.

He did stay.

I waited to make sure he didn't come
out.

What have you got to say to that?

Nothing.

Nothing at all.

But this man claims that he thought you
let Harrison into your shop and then

lock up. Do you deny that?

Now, see... What's your name?

Saunders.

Joe Saunders. Well, Saunders...
Saunders?

That's your name too, isn't it?

That's right.

Any relation?

He's my father.

Father? What are you looking at me like
that for?

I'm doing my duty, aren't I?

He was harboring a criminal, wasn't he?

This is what you wanted, isn't it?

You wanted me to lead the right kind of
life?

Well, that's what I'm doing.

Where's the reward money?

You said for any information, so I
should still get it. We're not handing

rewards for misinformation.

As a matter of fact, I could hold you
for making false statements.

And I, for one, wouldn't mind clapping
you into a cell. I wouldn't mind it at

all. I'd enjoy it. No, no, no.

Don't hold him.

He was telling the truth.

I was hiding Gus in my cellar, and I got
a telephone call from a girl.

Said her name was May.

Well, she tipped me off, the police were
coming, and Gus got away.

What do you say to that?

You'll get your reward.

We have to hold you.

There you are.

Take it and get out of here.

Did you hurt yourself, son?

Did you hurt yourself?

Unfortunately he wasn't.

Sam was one of those persons for whom
all things seemed to work out well.

No matter what happens to him, he always
manages to land on his head.

That's all for tonight.

Next time we plan a similar foray into
your parlor. I hope you'll be home.

Good night.
