Original subtitles

Next, the invaders in color.

You're not going to have any kind of a honeymoon, Sam.

These early morning calls have got to go.

Steady, Doc.

When we get back, I'll pour you a tranquilizer. Don't Doc me, Doc.

Anyway, I have nothing to say for a physician who's so jealous of the

competition he has to ask her to marry him.

Come here and shut up.

Then come help me.

1 -8 -A.

8 -6 -1 -1.

1 -8 -A.

Don't try to move. I'm a doctor.

I'm okay.

Just get me out of here.

What were you doing driving like that?

Brakes went out, I guess.

Look, I'm all right. Just help me to get out of here.

Please, just hold still.

Don't touch me!

Don't be a fool. You'll kill yourself.

Hey, watch out!

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, Nan Martin, Harry Townes,

Ron Hayes, Joe Moross.

Tonight's episode...

Valley of the Shadow.

Carterville, Wyoming.

Once a processing center for local copper mines.

Now a relic.

Population, 1 ,216.

Principal features, the Laramie Mountains on the south, the North Platte

on the north.

Principal industry, contemplation of the past.

In its 71 years, Carterville has had only four murder cases.

The latest, committed by a member of an alien race, will never be recorded in

the history books.

I want to talk to him now. Not till he sees his lawyer, Will. We're not going

make any mistakes with this one. You owe me a favor from the campaign now, don't

you forget it. Well, you should have backed the competition. I'm not much of

failure. Sheriff, his name's Vincent. He's been here for a half an hour and he

wants to see manners.

Are you his lawyer?

No, I'm not.

What is it you're selling?

The reason he killed the doctor.

It's free.

I accept the gift.

I want to see him first.

The picture in the paper wasn't clear. I'd like to be sure.

What is he to you?

He once tried to kill me.

Mind if I see your ID?

I take it you're in no hurry.

He isn't going anywhere.

In a couple of days, he's going up in smoke.

I'd like someone to see it when he does.

Look, Vincent, I hate to upset you, but I have a murder case to protect, and I'm

not going to let you turn it into a circus.

I'm just trying to help you. Let me see him. No circus.

All right, let's go.

He the one?

Yes.

Why did he kill Dr. LaRousse?

He didn't want to be examined.

He has no pulse, no heartbeat.

Check it out.

Hey, Sheriff, who is this character?

Vincent, you're beautiful.

It's a clever approach.

City papers start screaming, why did they examine him against his will? And a

clever lawyer to bring in lots of smart testimony. Look, I don't care if you

believe me, but there's no law against having that prisoner examined by a

recognized doctor.

Why doesn't he have a pulse or a heartbeat, Vincent?

I'll explain that after he's been examined.

Oh, come on. Now, that's a pretty wild thing to say.

What is he, some kind of freak?

He's different because he wasn't born here on Earth.

He's from another planet.

Where he's really a frog, waiting to be kissed awake by a beautiful princess.

This gentleman, if you'll excuse me.

The man has no pulse and no heartbeat. Two days, three at the most, he's going

up in flames. I don't know whether to run you out of town or lock you up.

Just let me use the telephone.

I have to call Captain Taft at the airbase.

You can use mine, Vincent.

Will.

Nope. I'd like to hear more about this.

Little Cullen never heard a story.

Well, don't forget who your friends are. My friends wouldn't let me interview

the prisoner. They can't do much about me interviewing a stranger.

That will be so.

Sheriff. Hey, hey, Sheriff.

What do you want, Manners?

My lawyer.

I want to call my lawyer now.

The guy Vincent, he's the one that ought to be locked up.

He can use my cell.

Right there.

Sheriff, I want to talk to my lawyer, not you.

Now, look, you've got to get me out of here now, right now.

I've got an Air Force captain on the way.

Which base is he from?

What planet's he from?

I don't know.

What's he doing in this part of the country? I don't know that either.

Look, you're not trying hard enough, Vincent. You've got to use your

a little. Your phone, please.

You cooperate with me and I'll cooperate with you. Make you a big man.

Pictures, wire services.

Captain Taft.

Captain, this is David Vincent calling.

You told me if I ever caught one, I should give you a call.

Well, I'm calling.

Now, don't hang up yet.

Regulation 33 -6 of the UFO manual says you've got to check it out.

Well, thanks for telling me.

Where are you, Vincent?

Yes, I know where it is.

I'll be there.

always been a book man, Corporal.

But there are some regulations I just don't understand.

Call the motor pool, have them send a car over.

I'm going to help you anyway, Vincent.

There's another doctor in this town, Maria McKinley.

She was engaged to marry Sam LaRousse.

Ordinarily, she wouldn't touch the man that killed him with a ten -foot pole.

wouldn't even be right to ask her. But in the interest of science, in the

interest of selling papers.

I'm going to get her to listen to his heartbeat, check his pulse.

That doesn't worry you, does it?

No. Good.

You help yourself to coffee. I'll get right on it.

What do you know about this Vincent, sir?

Only that he'll do anything at all to get his name in the papers.

I've never had the pleasure of meeting the gentleman.

You mean he just picks up the phone and calls you?

That takes a lot of gall, Captain.

That it does, Sergeant.

Enough gall to be divided into three parts.

Hello, Maria.

I'm sorry to bother you.

Will, what do you want?

Well, there's something going on that I think you ought to know about, Maria.

I think that the dignity of Sam's memory is in jeopardy.

Will, if you want me to cry or swear or throw you out of here just so you

can get a nice juicy paragraph in Sam's obituary... Maria, there is a man in

town over in Gordon's office right this minute.

who says that Sam was killed by a spaceman.

A spaceman?

Without any heartbeat or any pulse.

I wouldn't lie to you, Maria.

Especially not at a time like this.

All right.

What do you want me to do about it?

Well, I think it would help stop these stories if a doctor examined manners.

As painful as that would be.

Prove the fellow's lying.

And I think Sam would approve, too.

Well, you could no more know Sam's mind than the man in the moon.

Good to meet you, Mr. Clement. Glad to meet you, Captain.

They're, uh... Not to be a law.

Well, if there were a law, I'd have locked him up by now.

Well, Captain, I'm glad we're finally getting to meet.

Briefly and for the last time, if you'll go ahead with your demonstration, I'd

like to get back for lunch.

Well, first of all, we need a doctor.

Amen.

You choose a doctor.

This is a two -doctor town, Vincent.

One was murdered, the other was his fiancée.

She saw it happen, and I'm not about to ask her.

You're the man with Victoria.

Dr. Kinley, I wish I could have told you my own way.

It wouldn't have mattered.

You see, I don't believe you've come here out of delusion or paranoia or

anything like that.

You're his friend, and you've come to help him.

No, Doctor, I...

I want to have him examined.

If I'm wrong, you'll tell me, and I'll take your word for it and leave.

Why are you doing this?

What are you going to get out of it?

It's making fools of you.

You'll have people laughing so hysterically at him and at you.

It'll make Sam's death a farce.

You'd better resolve this, Doctor, or Mr. Hale will make a Roman circus out of

it.

Maria.

I'll call the coroner at the county office. Why don't you go on home?

Sorry to wipe out your story, Will.

You got me wrong, Gord.

Gordon, do you want me to do this?

No, Maria.

I mean, would it help?

Does he have to be examined?

Well, I don't know any other way to get rid of Vincent.

Look, Maria, I'm walking a tightrope to prevent a mistrial or a change of venue.

We just have to be very careful.

Well, let's get it over with.

All right, Captain.

Sergeant, get my report forms from the car, will you?

Yes, sir.

Not your will.

Mr. Hale said he had no pulse or heartbeat.

That's true.

Let's get it over with.

He doesn't seem to like the idea.

He is afraid.

I'm curious myself.

Stand still, Manners, or we'll have to put the handcuffs on you.

We have no choice, Clemens. Until this thing is cleared up, I've got to see

what happened is kept inside the town.

I'm declaring martial law.

What will that do except spread the hysteria? That won't be hysteria if you

handle it right. Keep the people in their homes.

No public gatherings.

Gladys, an emergency has been declared.

I want you to close the switchboard to all out -of -town calls.

Yeah, yeah.

Pull the plugs on every line except this one.

Yes, yes, right now.

I'll have my deputy spread the word.

Jim?

Fine. Now I'd like to call the airbase.

Sit down.

Captain Taft here. Get me UFO investigation.

What's wrong?

This is a red call.

The Vincent report was a flashing red.

I'll handle it from here.

What do you suggest?

Full investigation squad, full shut off, no news, the works.

Yes.

I'm taking measures to keep the news from spreading.

I consider this an emergency.

news just like that.

I didn't do it just like that. I declared martial law first.

Well, this is important, Captain. This is wire service bulletin bannerhead

It'll make this town when the AP and UPI get it.

What you mean, Hale, is it'll make you. You saw it happen. You took the

pictures. You wrote the copy. You're thinking only of you. Now, be nice, or

suggest to the sheriff that you're breaking the law.

Come on, break it up. Break it up.

How many are there, mister? Say, where do these people come from? How come you

know so much about them? What do they want? Look, the airport's on top of it

now. Everything's going to be all right.

Doctor.

What is it, Mr. Edmund?

Well, I came to say that I'm sorry you had to be put through so much.

Thank you.

I didn't know Dr. LaRouche.

But his death was important.

It's going to let the world know.

Please stop it, Mr. Vincent.

This cheap joke of yours is in horrible taste.

I don't know how you did it, but manners will be caught again.

and executed, and you'll be punished for helping him escape.

Dr. Manners is dead.

You can fool all the people in this town all the time, Mr. Vincent, and you

obviously have, but I'm a doctor, and I know what is and is not scientifically

possible. But you've seen the pictures. You've talked to people who were there.

Please, I'm sorry. I don't want to talk anymore.

Sam's funeral is in an hour.

I just wish you'd come.

I just wish you'd see for yourself how important he was to this town.

How loved he was.

I will be there.

And then maybe you'll have the decency to end this hoax.

Thank you.

Out of all the sick he healed, not one came.

He loved this town.

He devoted his life to it.

And not one person came.

They're afraid.

They've seen something.

Something you refuse to see.

I came here to speak to a full congregation about my friend Sam

town he loved.

Everyone knew of the funeral?

Maria?

Well, I simply don't understand this. I...

May God have mercy on all of us.

The Lord is my shepherd.

I shall not want.

He maketh me to lie down in green pastures.

He leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul. He leadeth me into

the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.

Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no

evil. For thou art...

For thou art thy rod and thy staff.

It's a crack in it clear to the top and the water starting to come through Well,

don't

you hear that about the dam I heard well earthquake must have put that bracket

you gonna do anything about it That's what I get paid for what what are you

gonna do about it?

What about the electricity going off, our phones, our radios, the cars?

Just settle down.

I'll get us some help.

You people were told to stay at home.

Everybody else is following orders. I expect you to do the same.

We'll let you know what's happening.

Jimmy, get your brother.

Get out of town any way you can. Bring back the army, the state police,

Jimmy, don't let me down.

Captain. I was just curious.

Why didn't you come here two days ago when I called you? I told you. I was

then. What have you done to Captain Taft?

Are you insane?

I am Captain Taft.

I never called two days ago.

Ah, yes, it had to be.

The power failure.

The earthquake.

And you're the only new face in town.

What are you doing here?

Cutting them off from the outside world.

Keeping them here so they can't spread the word.

You can't cut off communications forever.

What are you doing here?

They know the truth, Mr. Vincent.

I'm only doing what I have to do.

Not the whole town.

You're not going to murder the whole town.

They've got guns.

Pistols.

I don't care who they are. If they can hit us at this range, goodbye to them.

I'm going up there.

There must be another way. You just can't wipe out a whole town.

No other way.

People believe you saw to that.

Look, it's too big a risk. You'll draw too much attention.

We're not looking forward to it, Vincent.

It'll make you feel better.

I'll have my accounting to do.

For bungling manners escape.

I'll pay for that.

And how do you murder a thousand people?

A harmless mist will put them to sleep.

My people, unaffected by the mist, will escape before the flood hits.

A natural disaster.

Look, you don't want to kill them.

There'd be too much talk. There'd be investigations.

Maybe I can talk them out of it.

This time they won't believe you. If I can convince them that it was an attempt

to break manners out of jail.

How are you going to explain what happened to him?

Fumes from the gas tank.

A flash of fire.

An optical illusion.

I don't know, but it's worth a try for both of us.

What about the electricity going off?

I'll think of something.

Good luck.

How much time do I have?

An hour to it the most My people are on their way

Every living soul.

I knew it was something pretty bad, but that's hard to believe.

I just need one person to believe.

We have to make the rest of the town think I pulled some stunt to get Manners

out of jail.

Then they can be saved.

What do we have to do?

Maria's a doctor, a scientist. She's respected, and she thinks I lied.

If she can convince the rest, then they have a chance.

You're safe, but fix more hours.

Insulin will last that long, then refrigerate it. And after that? After

I'll drive you to Casper.

In what?

You lied.

The whole thing was a hoax. Tell her.

Tell me.

All right, he's a friend of mine. That's not all you told me.

He offered me $500 if I got him out of jail.

I was broke. Try it sometime.

I'm sorry you got involved in this, but I needed the money. You won't spend it

for ten years, Vincent. Come on.

Oh, Maria.

Can you think of some way for me to quiet down the town?

Thanks to Will Hale and Vincent here, they took it all seriously.

They're still jumpy.

I know they are. You want me to talk to them?

Hale has a hand press that's still working.

Maybe... No, I hate to ask you to do that. I'll do it myself.

Gordon.

They trust me.

We'll print up some bulletins and distribute them around town. Please, I

do this.

If you think you're up to it.

Sheriff, we're going to pack up our things and get out of here. What for?

It's all over, Will.

It was a jailbreak.

Vincent staged it to get manners out.

Ask him.

What are you trying to do, get me lynched?

Will?

Maria, I thought you might print up a special bulletin. Tell everybody in town

what really happened.

She's consented to fill in with a few of the facts.

Your paper.

You'd be the one responsible for bringing this town back to sanity again.

Yeah, sure. I'll get on it right away Come

on

It's

your baby captain it's all yours now

work, Vincent.

Give it a chance.

I will.

This one time, we both want the same thing.

I'm a scientist.

Now, I know it's easy to be fooled by natural phenomena just because it's,

it's unusual.

But don't be.

Don't let yourselves be.

Maria, I saw him burn up. I took pictures, remember?

An optical illusion. It's perfectly possible.

What about the earthquake, the dam, and the electricity going off?

An electrical disturbance.

Baloney.

You should be ashamed of yourself.

Do you want to remember Sam's death as the time you all went mad?

How do you make a fresh battery stop working? Now tell me that.

I have a car with just 500 miles on it. It doesn't work either.

Well, there is a reason. There has to be a reason.

Just because I don't know what it is.

Maria, before God and man, could you be wrong?

Is it possible you could be wrong?

Sheriff?

I'm sorry to let you down, Gord. We couldn't get out.

What happened? They're all around us. He knocked out the... The bridge, the

flood in the valley, everything.

They've got this machine out there that's sucking up all the electricity.

We can't get out of here.

Why did you lie to us, Maria?

I didn't mean to lie, Reverend.

I didn't think it could be.

I didn't see how it was possible.

Hey, look!

He can't... At ease.

What's going on here? What's wrong? Our trucks lost power just outside of town.

Yeah. We're in the same fix.

Electricity's off.

All the cars have stopped.

He's your superior.

You've had your chance.

Now, please, don't cause any more alarm until it's over.

The people are more serene now.

It will be better for them and better for us if it stays that way.

Cooperate, and I'll let you live.

There's got to be a better way.

For both of us.

That's not my decision anymore.

And it's certainly not yours.

There's too much to explain.

Why can't you make them forget it happened?

That's not possible.

Well, try.

Hypnotize them. No.

Eventually, they'd replay the day in their minds.

It would happen the same way.

Not even mind drugs could do it.

I've ordered preparations.

Ten minutes more.

You'll have a great many questions to answer when it's over.

David.

How much time do we have?

What do you mean?

No more acting, David.

He fooled me this afternoon.

No more.

A few minutes, I guess.

I'm sorry if I said things. No.

If only there was something I could do.

I could organize the men.

Resist somehow.

No, I know these people.

There'll be panic and bloodshed. Just leave them alone.

For everyone else, time stopped at one o 'clock this afternoon.

For me, it stopped yesterday.

Only Sam counted.

Today never happened.

There might be a way.

Now, you said turning back the clock through hypnosis was impossible because

events would repeat themselves exactly as they were.

But you can go back to Monday, make it happen again, but differently.

Change one element, and you can change the outcome.

I'll be that element.

Hear this voice.

Obey this voice. This voice communicates to and commands you for as long

as you hear it. To the town square you will bring every last item you

have acquired since 9 o 'clock this morning.

Every item.

Every paper. Every letter.

Every memory. Every thought.

Every artifact.

Everything. Since nine o 'clock this morning.

People will come and ask you about a radio silence which lasted for a day.

You will tell of an unusual magnetic disturbance which will be spoken of

for years.

Certain things will have changed.

The road bridge collapsed in an earthquake.

You will remember.

the sound of it. Tomorrow at nine in the morning you will awaken.

You will have lost one whole day but you will not realize it. Everything will be

as I have said.

Go now.

I want to talk to him now. Not till he sees his lawyer, Will. We're not going

make any mistakes with this one. You owe me a favor from the campaign now, don't

you forget it. Well, you should have backed the competition.

I'm not much of a favor.

Sheriff, his name's Vincent. He's been here for a half an hour and he wants to

see manners.

Are you his lawyer?

No, I'm not.

What is it you're selling?

The reason he killed the doctor.

It's free.

I accept the gift.

I want to see him first.

The picture in the paper wasn't clear.

I'd like to be sure.

What is he to you?

He once tried to kill me.

Mind if I see your ID?

Raise your hand.

Let's go.

No, I'm sorry to trouble you, Sheriff.

I've never seen him before in my life.

The Lord is my shepherd.

I shall not want.

He maketh me to lie down in green pastures.

He leadeth me beside the still waters.

He restoreth my soul.

He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.

Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no

evil, for thou art with me.

Thy rod and thy staff, they comfort me.

Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies.

Thou anointest my head with oil. My cup runneth over.

Surely, goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life.

And I will dwell in the house of the Lord.

He was a fine man, Maria.

A credit to his profession and to you, and to this town, too.

It means a lot to hear you say that, Will.

Thank you.

Maria, I feel worse than any man here.

I like Sam.

I really thought we had the man who... No, that wasn't the man, Gordon.

I knew the moment I saw him, you had to let him go.

Yeah.

Well, we're raising Cain with the highway patrol.

They brought us the wrong man, and I want to find out why.

Doctor.

I came to pay my respects.

I'm sorry.

I can't play.

Were you a friend of Sam's?

No, I wasn't.

I'd heard a great deal about him.

Well, thank you.

It means so much to me that everybody showed up.

It shows how loved Sam really was.

Yes, he was.

Are you sure we haven't met before, mister?

Vincent. David Vincent.

Yes, I'm sure.

Thank you so much for coming.
