Next, the invaders in color.

All right, this is Dr. Rogers, Dr. Frederick Rogers.

There's been an accident up on Highway 14.

A woman was thrown from her horse.

Now I'm afraid she's dead.

Yes, her name was Laurie Keller, K -E -L -L -E -R.

That's right.

I'll bring her in, all right?

All right.

What do you want?

Yeah, let go of me! Let go of me!

The Invaders.

A Quinn Martin production.

Starring Roy Finnis as architect David Vincent.

The Invaders.

Alien beings from a dying planet.

Their destination, the Earth.

Their purpose.

To make it their world.

David Vincent has seen them. For him, it began one lost night on a lonely

country road looking for a shortcut that he never found.

It began with a closed, deserted diner and a man too long without sleep to

continue his journey.

It began with the landing of a craft from another galaxy.

David Vincent knows that the invaders are here, that they have taken human

Somehow he must convince a disbelieving world that the nightmare has already

begun.

The guest stars in tonight's story, Antoinette Bower, Jason

Evers.

Tonight's episode, Condition Red.

A physician reports the death of a woman. Two hours later, her husband, a

major, reports her very much alive.

The newspaper account attracted no particular attention, but David Vincent

that an alien, unconscious, without pulse or heartbeat, might easily be

for dead, even by a doctor. And so he arranged to visit NORAD's Combat

Operations Center, 1 ,400 feet beneath Cheyenne Mountain, and a natural target

for the invaders.

there please yes sir robert davis you're a freelance magazine writer

that's right it'll be just a few minutes mr davis would you step over there

please thank you

excuse me

please

Robert Davis sir he's David Vincent let him take the tour with the others yes

sir

These tours for journalists are designed to publicize their defensive

capabilities.

We want the public and our potential enemies to know about this facility.

Naturally, you won't see anything that's classified.

But I can promise there'll be plenty for you to write about.

Morning, Major Keller. General.

How's your wife, Major? I read about that accident up in the mountains.

Oh, she's fine now, sir. Thank you.

I think she was more concerned about what happened to that doctor than she

by her fall.

Terrible thing.

That's the last of it.

We'll be able to install the new tapes if scheduled at 0900 tomorrow.

Officially, this is the war room.

To us, it's the peace room.

What you're looking at now is a composite picture of aerial activity in

approaches to the North American continent.

Each object in the sky must be identified and accounted for.

The key to the entire operation is the computer section.

On its reliability rests the defense of the North American continent.

Now for a closer look at the big screen.

Naturally, the final decisions are made by men.

Beyond the electronic logic, no matter how advanced, there is always a human

brain.

This is the computer section.

As you can see, we'll have to pass it up.

Well, Captain, are any of the section personnel available for interview?

You might be able to arrange something through the public information officer.

Thank you.

Mr. Davis? Yes. I'm Major Dan Keller. How do you do? Come on in. Thank you.

The P .I .O. phone.

Said you wanted to do a piece on the home life of a NORAD officer. Something

like that, yes. Uh -huh.

My wife Lori will be down in a minute. Good.

Drink?

All right.

Scotch and soda. No ice, please.

Fine. Make yourself comfortable. Thank you.

You'll forgive me for not joining you, Mr. Davis.

But I have to get back to work.

I really don't have too much time.

Here you are. Thank you.

Donna, my first wife, she died six months ago.

It was a heart attack.

Well, yes, I realize you're running short on time.

Just a couple of questions.

The second Mrs. Keller, Laurie, is that right? How long have you known her?

Three months.

What does that have to do with anything?

Well, I thought the P .I .O. explained to you that I... No.

The P .I .O. said you wanted to know about my home life.

To me, that means meals, hobbies, schedules.

You want to know about my personal life.

Why?

Major, I'm not a journalist.

I'm trying to find out about a plot against NORAD involving the computer

section.

I can assure you, Mr. Davis, our security is excellent. But not... Why

talk with A2 intelligence? I intend to talk to them, but I wanted to talk to

first. Why?

There are a couple of things I wanted to find out about the second, Mrs. Keller.

What exactly are you getting at, Mr. Davis?

My wife.

Hello?

No.

I thought I'd make you both some lunch.

Mr. Davis was just leaving.

I'll see you again.

And what was all that about?

Oh, this guy really came up with quite a story.

He... Oh, never mind.

Thank you.

These so -called aliens of yours, why hasn't NORAD spotted their spacecraft?

Major, I don't know.

If they've been moving single saucers without detection, then this could

something much more important.

Send him in.

Thank you for coming down, Dan.

I thought I'd find you here, Mr. Davis.

His name is not Davis.

It's David Vincent.

That's right.

The one with the UFO theories.

I knew who he was this morning, Dan.

I didn't interfere with him because I wanted to know what he was doing at

Oh, you don't buy his stuff, do you?

Look, Dan, I spent five years in UFO investigation.

There are plenty of unanswered questions.

Sit down.

Dan, Mr.

Vincent has a theory that Laurie may not be what she seems to be.

Oh, well, you know her so well, Mr. Vincent.

What does she seem to be?

Maybe you could explain why Dr. Rogers called the state police to tell them

Laurie was dead.

Well, she was unconscious.

He made a mistake.

A doctor with 30 years' experience.

Is that likely?

More likely than flying saucers.

And right afterwards, Dr. Rogers drowned.

Well, I can't explain coincidences, Mr.

Vincent. Then let me try.

Suppose there are aliens here on Earth without pulse or heartbeat.

One of them is knocked unconscious after a fall from a horse. Now, you can see

how a doctor mistakenly would... Just a minute, mister.

Mr. Vincent, are you saying that Laurie has no pulse or heartbeat?

Ask the major to bring his wife to the base.

Have your own doctor's examiner.

Pete, I'm tired.

We're programming tomorrow.

Major Kellett.

What was your wife doing alone at dawn in the mountains?

She grew up with horses she likes to ride.

Well, you said you have an open mind.

Bring her in.

I don't have the authority to do that.

And I can't force her to take a medical examination.

Okay. I'll see you later.

What's so funny?

That guy that was here today.

Mr. Davis.

His name's not Davis.

It's Vincent.

And he goes around the country preaching about aliens from outer space with no

pulses or heartbeats.

I don't think that's funny. I think it's rather sad.

Do you know what he said about you?

You are an alien being.

You are a heartless alien being.

We were talking about the area southwest of Alaska.

Southwest of Alaska.

That is within the NORAD defense perimeter.

For 3 ,000 miles.

Which reels of tape are programmed to detect objects entering the airspace

the islands 1 ,000 miles southwest of Alaska?

Reel 9.

Only reel 9.

How could that tape be reprogrammed so as not to see 20 spacecraft approaching

those islands?

Objects entering airspace at one degree and fixed trajectory at 2 ,000 feet per

second per second.

reprogram this.

What?

Laurie?

Will you be able to get this to NORAD in time?

My husband will see to it.

Is the attack still scheduled for tomorrow morning?

10 .22.

Dad? I'm over here.

Why aren't you in bed?

For one thing, I've got a headache.

Well, I have something that'll fix that.

Where were you?

I hope I didn't worry you, darling.

Of course I was worried. It's four in the morning.

Is it really?

I just couldn't sleep.

I thought I'd try my old standby ride in the mountains.

Take this. You'll feel much better.

It was so beautiful up there tonight.

The air was so clear. The stars were so bright.

I think I'll pass.

I feel drugged already.

Drugged?

I had a nightmare.

Part of the human condition.

Then I fell asleep.

My brain was being scooped out of my head.

I looked all over the house for you. You weren't there.

Well, I'm here now.

Come on, let's get some sleep.

Lori, I don't want you to go out riding again in the middle of the night.

Dan, I've done it all my life. Well, you'll stop doing it now.

Why is it suddenly so important to you?

Do you think I'm meeting a man out there or something? I'm going to bed. Lori, I

want your word.

My word for what? That you won't go out riding again alone.

What do you think you're doing?

Is that what's on your mind? Do you think I'm what he said I am, some sort

creature?

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry, Lori. It's just sitting here in the dark.

Sorry. You had a nightmare, darling. That's all.

A nightmare.

Don't let's fight anymore.

I'll be back in a minute.

A little time.

I won't leave you.

Thanks a lot.

David Vincent.

Then I got cross -country.

I got to the highway, hitched a ride here.

If there's anything up there, our patrol will find it.

Oh, yeah, send him in.

Morning, Jan.

What's he after now, Pete?

I think you better hear him out.

General Winter?

We've installed the new tapes.

Thank you, Captain.

What makes people like you so dangerous, Mr. Vincent, is that there's always a

grain of truth in what you have to say.

Obviously, you went driving last night and you happened to see Laurie.

Well, then she was out.

Well, I don't know what time she left the house, but she came back at four.

Surely you have enough now to bring her in for questioning.

Tell him to come right in.

Excuse me, sir.

The patrol just reported back.

Oh, yes. Go on.

The shack was empty.

Dusty. No sign that anyone had been near it for years.

This doesn't prove anything. There are experts at this kind of thing.

All right, Captain. Thank you.

Yes, sir.

Sorry to have bothered you again, Dan.

Major, look, you're an intelligence officer.

In any other case, you'd try to consider every possibility.

All I'm asking is that you try to do that now.

I'll bring her in, Pete.

If you want to, Dan, it would help clear things up.

I'll see you in a half an hour with Lauren.

Major, if she knows why you're bringing her in, she won't come.

She'll be here, Mr. Vincent.

You should take a detail of air police with you, Major.

I don't intend to arrest my own wife.

What are you doing home at this hour?

How would you like to see the inside of the COC?

Today?

Right now.

Whatever brought that on so suddenly?

Well, actually, I thought the two of us might have a talk with Pete Stanhope.

The intelligence officer, whatever for?

It's not about that alien thing again, is it?

Oh, Dan, I hope you didn't tell Pete I was coming.

Well, I didn't think you'd object.

It's not Pete Stano at all, is it?

It's you.

Something's troubling you.

That argument last night.

Is it Donna?

Do you feel guilty about marrying me?

You think that I trapped you into marriage with some sort of witchcraft?

Oh, Dad.

I love you, but... Do aliens cry?

Oh, Laurie, I'm sorry.

Forgive me, darling.

I don't know what I was thinking about.

If it means that much, I'll come with you.

I just don't want you to worry.

Don't want you to worry at all.

Come get me.

It must be on their way

Maybe

You'll

be here unless they finished with him unless unless he served his purpose

Cutters, I'm coming right over.

I want a complete rundown on everything Major Keller did since he arrived at the

base this morning.

I only saw him for a minute, sir, then he went to your office.

Did he say anything to you? He instructed me to replace the computer

That was a routine replacement?

Yes, sir. It's been scheduled for three weeks.

What time did he arrive here at the computer section?

I'd say 8 .58.

He entered the vault at 8 .56 and stayed about a minute and a half. Takes a few

seconds to walk here from the vault, so that accounts for the time.

Except for what he did while he was in the vault.

I'm sure he was checking on the tapes. We hadn't completed them when he left

last night.

Like Mrs. Kelly brought something out in a saddlebag from that shack.

Or could it have something to do with the tapes?

Laurie.

What happened to me?

Nothing, darling. You just fell asleep.

Where are you going?

Going for a little trip? We talked about it, don't you remember?

No, Laurie, I... I don't want you to... go. I...

I should...

It's...

true.

That's true.

Why?

We need a bath here in Ireland.

At 10 .22, we'll have it.

Major.

Stan Hope.

Just a second.

It's Major Keller.

Yes, Dan. What is it?

Real.

Nine.

Captain, take a detail and get over to Major Keller's house fast. I think he's

been shot.

Yes, sir.

What did he say?

Reel 9.

A computer program.

Is there any way a reel can be altered to make things look normal, even if

they're not?

I don't understand.

Can a computer be fixed? Can it be made to ignore a specific phenomenon?

And nothing else?

Yes, I suppose so.

Oh.

Instruction could be added to a tape.

All it would take would be one extra card in the right place.

Then you'd get something on a memory bank like... If objects approach at a

certain speed on a certain course, forget it. Don't project it.

Could that be it?

Major Stanhope here, General.

We may have discovered an error in the computer programming.

Thank you, sir.

We're switching to the backup computers.

What's happening? We've got an automatic condition red.

Whatever they are, they're not air -breathing engines.

Should be visual contact within two minutes

We

have to intercept them

They were warned.

Major, stand up, please.

Stand up here.

Oh, yes, Captain.

No, Captain, that's all.

Major Keller is dead.

What about Laurie?

She left a dear John note.

Well, thank you for dropping by, Mr. Vincent.

I've been trying to make some military sense out of what happened.

Just personal speculation, you understand.

Yes, sir.

Some of it's pretty hard to swallow. Still keep your peace of mind.

The general's preliminary report on the condition read.

He explains the UFOs as natural phenomena.

Says nothing here about the changes in the computer tape.

The general feels that Major Keller is worried about his private life, and he

simply made a mistake.

How do you feel?

There was some talk around the base that Dan married Laurie too soon after his

first wife died.

I suppose you could say he did make a mistake.

Good luck, David.

Stick with it.

I plan to.

For my peace of mind.

The invader has lost a battle.

But David Vincent knows that somewhere in space, new strategies are already

being devised. For the war has only begun.
