All language subtitles for The Invaders s02e21 The Peacemaker.eng

Go home, Corporal.

Keep your mouth shut.

I expect to find you
that way when I get back.

Yes, sir.

I'll get
the general.

General,

we've got one.

Fine.

Fine work, Archie.

Who've you got in there?

He's on fire!

Halt!

Halt, or I'll shoot!

The one in that cell
is gone, too.

I want this stuff analyzed
by 9:00 tomorrow morning.

NARRATOR:
Starring Roy Thinnes 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.

(eerie whirring)

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

(whirring intensifies)

Now David Vincent knows
that the invaders are here.

That they have taken
human form.

Somehow, he must convince
a disbelieving world

that the nightmare
has already begun.

The guest stars
in tonight's story:

Phyllis Thaxter...

Lin McCarthy...

Alfred Ryder...

Kent Smith...

and special guest star
James Daly.

NARRATOR:
For two years

David Vincent has been
waging war on two fronts:

One,
against the alien invaders,

the other, an attempt to enlist
allies in high places

while there is still time.

Now, finally, with the help of
some friends in the military,

David Vincent is opening
the second front.

Colonel Harmon.

That's right.

In the car, please.

Yesterday, you kidnapped
one of our people.

Brought him in here.

All right.

We want him back.

Sorry.

We'll exchange.

You for him.

He's dead.

No. We would have heard.

From an officer
named Vance, you mean.

You won't hear
from him again.

Colonel Harmon's
apartment.

I'm afraid you've lost

your bargaining position,
Colonel.

So close.

All that hassle
to get a live one.

I hope we haven't
blown it.

At least we have
the government involved now.

Maybe.

Concannon is chief
of Hemisphere Command.

He saw one go.

So, that puts Concannon
on our side.

That could be
an advantage.

I don't know.

Archie tells me
you and Concannon

don't get along very well.

Just a personal
thing.

Nothing to do
with this.

So, the government's
in on this.

That means we might
get some action.

I hope Archie
gets home soon.

Is there someone
in your apartment?

Perhaps
a cleaning woman.

Leave her out of this.

Open it.

(tires squealing)

Thanks.

I suspect I was
about to be found dead

in my own bed.

Any luck
with the ashes?

No.

No, they were
only cellulose fibers.

The Bureau of Standards
has the analysis.

Concannon wants
to see you.

Good.

What's on his mind?

The only thing
he'd tell me is

that he was speaking
for the president.

Mr. Vincent,
I'm glad you could come.

I know
how busy you are. General.

I'm sorry I'm late.

Not at all.
Not at all.

Please sit down.

Thank you.

You're, uh, in this
with Edgar Scoville.

Is that right?

Yes.

How is he?

He's fine... busy.

I've always liked Edgar.

We, uh, had a little spat
a few years back

so I don't see much
of him anymore.

It was probably my fault.

Tell him I asked,
would you?

I will.

Of what I'm about to say,
Mr. Vincent

I want you to read
between the lines

and draw whatever conclusions
you think are warranted.

Is that all right?

Yes, sir.

We know they're here.

We know who they are
and what they are

and we mean to do something
about it.

I'm saying this

on the highest possible
official level.

We understand
each other?

Good.

Now, before I tell you
what our approach might be,

I want to ask you:
How strong are they, militarily?

Well, Colonel Harmon, uh,
has looked at our files.

He'd be better qualified
to answer that.

HARMON:
Strong

and getting stronger.

We'd guess they won't attack

until they get more gear
and people down here,

but when they do...
it won't be much fun.

We don't want a war.

It's insane
to want war these days.

There's no reason
on God's green Earth

why we can't live peaceably
with these people.

Will they talk
to us?

I don't know.

They seem to think they can get
what they want by taking it.

What do they want?

Everything.

We can give them everything,
within reason

if we know
how much land they need...

facilities, technology.

Will they talk
about that?

If they think they
have nothing to lose.

They'll be afraid we'll try
to expose them...

unite the whole world
against them.

"Expose them"?

Good Lord, no.

All we want to do is talk
with them privately--

a few of our people,
a few of theirs--

see if we can't settle
this thing...

responsibly, that's all.

Well, I'm inclined to agree
with Colonel Harmon.

If they know
you know,

they might speed
things up

and we'll find ourselves
in an all-out war.

Mr. Vincent...

do you know
what a doomsday device is?

No, I don't.

Colonel.

In theory,
it's, uh,

an automatic
self-detonating bomb

designed to go off

under certain
rigidly defined circumstances

destroying
the whole world--

the ultimate weapon.

If we can't get together
with these people,

we could tell them

that we're going
to build one of those things.

I don't know
whether we can or can't

but if they think
we can--

if they think
that we'll blow up the world

before we'll hand it over
to them--

they might have to sit down
and bargain.

What do you think
about that?

I think
they'll listen.

Good-- so do I.

Now, about finding
another one of these aliens...?

Well, what about the
one who got away?

I saw the car and the
license-plate number.

I'm sure it
could be traced.

Fine.

You let me know
if there's anything I can do.

You've been carrying
a heavy load.

It's time
we helped out.

Archie.

David.

You, uh, let me know
as soon as you find

one of these people
we can talk to

and, uh, take care
of yourself.

Thank you.

That's a fine boy, Archie.

He'll do it.

(crickets chirping)

(door opening)

Better shoot now.

You'll never get me
to your people.

I don't want
to shoot.

I want to talk.

Let's go inside.

(door closes)

(door closes)

(door closes)

Sarah?

Come on in, Archie.
Sit down.

Hello, dearest.
Hello, Archie.

Oh, there you are.
Hi, Sarah.

Have a good day?

Quite a good day.
You?

Did the gardener show up?

Mm-hmm-- chrysanthemums
will be out next week

and he thinks the new roses
are lovely.

What about the woodchucks?

Oh, maybe one
or two traces.

Nothing serious.

Well, maybe after dinner,

I'll take Billy out
and we'll shoot some.

The gardener said
we could spray the ground, Sam.

That would be the best way,
he thought.

And have you breathe
that noxious stuff

and get sick again?

Oh, no.

Archie, you want
to shoot some woodchucks

with us after dinner?

What do you
use on them?

A .270 With a soft-
nosed slug, 180 grains.

They want war,
I'll give them war.

What made it a good day,
Archie?

Oh, you'd better ask
the boss.

Sam?

We, uh...

solved a problem.

Good.

The one that kept you up
last night?

Was I up?

I don't remember.

(chuckling):
I guess so.

Did I, uh,
say anything?

Well, come on, dearest.

We don't have secrets
from Archie.

Did I talk in my sleep?

What about?

Armageddon...

doomsday...

sounded like the end
of the world.

You know I never ask
about your work.

No, you don't, Sarah.

He's working too hard,
isn't he, Archie?

I mean, it's not

as if we were
20 years old.

Can't you get him to slow down?

Nope.

When you don't sleep at night,
I worry.

Hi, Uncle Archie.

Hello, Billy.

Hey, Billy.

Hi, Dad.

Dinner ready?

Let your father
finish his drink.

Would you like to shoot
some woodchuck after dinner?

Well...

Huh?

Yeah, sure.

Attaboy.

You men go
in to dinner.

I, uh, want to speak
to Sarah for a moment.

Hey, come along, Billy.

Don't you ever,
ever, ever say

that I'm too old
to do my work

in front of Archie
or anybody else.

All I can do is

take you
to the man I report to.

Fair enough.

Well, well, well, Edgar.

How good to see you again.

General.

I'm going to need
your good counsel

here today, Edgar.

Sit down. Sit down.

Will you have some coffee
before we begin?

Thank you, no.

Have you heard
from David?

We've given him
a big task.

Rome wasn't built
in a day.

Caesar was killed in a minute.

Edgar, what do you think about
this idea of a doomsday device?

Very effective.

If anything can make them talk,
that's it.

I think so.

Could you build one?

Why?

Can one be built?

Could you build it?

No.

I couldn't build one,
and I wouldn't if I could.

Fine.

Can anyone?

I mean, hypothetically.

I hope not.

It would be insane.

To put us
at the mercy

of a machine that
couldn't be shut down?

There's an accident factor
that's impossible to calculate.

I suspect
you're exactly right, Edgar.

Still, if the time ever came,
I'm sure there'd be

other opinions.

Nice to see you again,
Mr. Vincent.

Have my people
been treating you well?

Oh, yes, very.

As a matter of fact,
they gave me aspirin

for the headache
I acquired when I was clubbed.

Aw, forgive them.

They were under the impression

that, as usual, you
meant us no good.

But this time,

you do have our best
interests at heart.

And ours.

Good.

You want to give
us what, now?

Land? A helping hand?
Peace? Things like that?

I'm in no position
to offer you anything.

I'm here to ask you
if you'll talk

with the man who can.

Hmm, who says he speaks
for your president.

Yes.

What do you want in exchange

for these things you'll give us?

Permanent cease-fire.

Sir?

Hmm?

Sit down with them,
they'll use it

as a chance to expose you.

They'll unite.

Create any safeguard
you like.

We want only to talk.

He's lying.

He's been trying
to tell the world too long.

It's all in the open now.

One of your men burned

in the general's
office building yesterday.

They know you're here.

Either you talk
with them

or they'll begin
building the doomsday device.

Mr. Vincent, you and the general
come here tonight at 8:00.

But drive in
slowly in one car.

Don't tell anyone you're coming
or bring anyone with you.

Then, if I feel like it,

we might talk.

Go after him.

Watch him.

Well, they're
talking tonight.

Edgar, you know something
I don't know?

I mean, uh, this is
what we've been working for.

This is big news.

You want me to
honk my horn?

What is it
between you and Concannon?

I told you, a personal thing.

Archie Harmon has served
under him for 28 years.

Says he'd walk
through hell with him.

I knew him for five minutes

and went through hell
with Concannon.

I was subcontracting
for the early moon shots.

Remember when the rocket

blew up
on the pad?

It's happened a couple of times.

Well, this time it killed
two men, two boys.

Concannon headed
the board of inquiry.

Will you take my word
for what caused the explosion?

Sure.

Human error.

A technician
pushed the launch button

before the fuel chamber
was secured.

And Concannon blamed you.

I think his
exact words were

"Edgar Scoville murdered
those two boys

"just as surely as if he'd
shot them in the head.

"In better days, we would have

and could have
hanged him for it."

Did he have any reason at all
for holding you responsible?

One.

He told Archie Harmon

he thought the public
needed a scapegoat

and he was going
to give them one.

Me.

Hmm.

Well, I think we're going
to have to go along with him.

He's going to be there
at the meeting himself.

I don't think
he'll pull anything.

He is speaking
for the president.

That's what he says.

We're being followed.

If you trust them,

you've nothing
to worry about.

If you trust
Concannon.

Sam?

What is it, dear?

I have
a nice surprise for you.

The lobsters
came early this year.

Oh, isn't that fine?

Archie, do you remember
Jack Barney?

From the march?

A corporal?

From Bataan?

That's the fellow.

What did you think about
on the march

more than anything else?

Milk.

I thought of a
two-quart glass

of ice-cold milk.

I could taste it
in my sleep.

With me, it was lobsters--

sweet, little, pound-and-a-half
chicken lobsters.

I told Barney,
and he promised me

if we ever got out alive

he'd send a dozen
every year, and he has.

Isn't that fine?

Would you like one tonight?

I'd love one
tonight, Sarah.

Oh. We've crossed
a lot of bridges together

since the Philippines,
haven't we, Archie?

I'd say so.

And this is the
toughest one yet.

You'll get us across, sir.

You always have.

Sometimes I don't know

why you put up
with me, Archie.

I'm a mean old
crock, aren't I?

Sometimes.

You know I don't
mean anything by it.

You're family to me.

Thank you, sir.

I know.

Can I buy you a drink?

If you'll join me.

Sure you won't come in?

Sure. Good luck
tonight, David.

Thanks.

Sarah?

You'd better write
all that down for me

before I forget.

Oh, I'm going to have
to eat and run, dear.

Is dinner ready?

Almost.

Just bring me one lobster,
no salad or anything.

You and Archie and Billy
can eat after I've gone.

Uh, are you hungry?

No, thank you.

Sit down. Sit down.

Tonight, right away?

This is fine, fine work,
Mr. Vincent.

It'll only take me
a minute to eat.

Sarah, as quickly
as you can.

What conditions
did they make?

Two people, the
general and myself.

They'll be watching
the meeting place.

Incidentally, they sent
someone to follow me here.

Do you really think
they'll talk?

I think they'll
talk about talking.

Wonderful.

Oh, thank you, darling.

You're sure you
won't join me?

No, thank you.

Well, keep talking.
Keep talking.

They took me to a
farmhouse in Virginia.

Who did you meet with?

I've met him before.

He's one of
their leaders.

He trusts us?

Not really.

Enough to take the
first step, I guess.

HARMON:
Old Chinese proverb--

"Journey of a
thousand Miles

begins with a single step."

Now, we're on our way, buddy.

Hmm...

(clearing throat)

Uh...

(choking)

Sarah!

(coughing and gagging)

Poisoned...

I've been poisoned.

I-I've been poisoned.

(siren wailing)

SARAH:
Was it food poisoning?

Poison poisoning.

Billy, go wrap up that lobster
in waxed paper for me...

and watch yourself.

Yes, sir.

What was it?

I don't know yet.

Nothing that was going
to do you any good.

A little more and you
might not be asking me.

Who did it, Sam?

Whoever it is, I'll get him.

You go home now, Bill.

Take your hearse with you.

Not a chance.

Go home. I'm not going
to your morgue.

Everybody, please
clear out

except Archie and you,
Mr. Vincent.

Nice people we're
dealing with, Mr. Vincent.

They don't trust us--
as soon as you tell them

we know they're here,
this happens.

I don't know. They
wanted to talk.

They could have
killed me.

What sense
does it make?

They don't want you.
They want him.

There are easier ways.

He was going to meet them.

It's off.

We tried to talk to them.

I wanted to talk to them--
you know that.

Let me talk to them again.

Are you out of your mind?

I say no, son.

You'd be committing suicide.

We had a few like that
on Corregidor.

Yeah, tough monkeys.

All dead.

Mr. Vincent, until the
general had this trouble,

you were going to live
up to your part of this?

Every word.

The general,
too, I suppose? Yes.

Alone, you're
useless to us.

You have no authority.

But I do have the authority
to arrange another meeting.

Mr. Ryder, you'd
better be interested.

They're about to build
the doomsday device, remember?

Is that a threat,
Mr. Vincent?

Yes.

If you still want
to talk, it perhaps might be possible.

That has to be
your decision.

Now, I'm not sure
the general would come.

Sit down.

Let's see if we
can't arrive at satisfactory terms.

Who is it?

Me.

How are you feeling?

Come sit by me, Sarah.

Dr. Jacobs says you'll be fine.

Sarah, how long
have we been married?

23 years.

Good years?

Oh, now, don't make
it sound that way.

We'll have 23 more.

Sarah?
Hmm?

Why did you try to kill me?

Why did I try...

Sam, pl...
I called that corporal Barney.

He didn't send
the lobsters.

But then somebody...
I called the market.

You bought them, Sarah.

Sam, please...
Why? Tell me why.

To stop you.

From what?

What you're going to do.

You talked about it
in your sleep.

But kill me...?

Not kill you. I didn't want you
going there tonight,

but I wasn't trying to kill you.

(phone ringing)

It was only the spray
I used on the grounds

to make you sick,
Sam. Please!

Mom?

(phone continues ringing)

Yes?

They still want the meeting,
General.

After they tried to poison me?

He said they had
nothing to do with that.

I believe them.

What conditions?

Tomorrow, 12:00 noon.
The farmhouse.

They'll have
all their top people

from all over the world...

if you will, too.

How many?

No more than six.

All right.

He'll be there.

Get out my uniform,
would you, dearest?

Archie... set up a meeting
in my office in one hour.

Cullenbine, Schoonover,
Rush and Zagor.

Get Scoville there, too.

Right. See you there.

Oh, yes, I'm fine.

Dad...

why was mom screaming
a minute ago?

She was worried about me,
Billy, but I'm fine now.

Thanks for asking, son.

I don't know
what it's about,

but anything that gets me
out of a bridge game

with John and Maxine
is an improvement.

Wait outside, please.

Gentlemen.

You all know me.

I'm not a dramatic man.

I'll just say
what I have to say

and leave it at that.

We're into something pretty big

and unless we act together--
correctly, immediately--

our country and our world
may not survive.

Take these envelopes
to a farmhouse

200 yards from a school,

4.2 miles due east
of the intersections

of Routes 9 and 106
in Virginia.

Arrive a little before noon.

Do not open the envelopes
until noon.

Your instructions are inside.

General, I would...

There will be
no discussion.

I have been given
these instructions.

That's all, gentlemen.

Good luck to you.

Edgar...

Yes, General?

I know how you feel
about the doomsday device,

but you must, without argument,
be present at that meeting

to convince the other side
that it can be built--

not will be,
but can be.

General Concannon, I...

Edgar...

I have been given
these instructions.

Yes, sir.

General Ludwig, please.

Samuel Concannon calling.

General. Sam Concannon.

Fine, thank you, sir.
How are you?

Good. What I'm calling about,
General,

is that my aide
Colonel Harmon and I

want to fly
a practice bomb run.

He needs to get
his hours in, and, uh...

Tomorrow would be fine.

Morning? 1100?

We're checked out
on 86s, 100s, 47s and 52s.

Whatever is easiest
for your people.

Full crew. Gassed and ready
to go at Andrews Field.

Thank you very much, General.

I'm much obliged to you.

Hope to see you soon.

Sit down, Archie.

Sit down.

This is General
Samuel Arlington Concannon,

Commander of Hemisphere Defense

for the United States
of America.

For 36 years, I have served
my country as soldier

statesman and patriot.

No one can question
my love for America.

In recent days, I have learned
that our country

faces the gravest threat
to her existence in her history.

We have been invaded
by beings from another planet--

beings who bear us great malice

and who will not be content
while any of us remain alive.

I have, as a consequence,
determined to take

immediate and forceful action
against them...

although this action
will certainly cost some American lives

including some of my
most devoted friends

and possibly my own

and that of my devoted aide
for 28 years, Colonel Harmon.

What we have done is this.

We've invited the top leadership
of these beings to a meeting

where they will be destroyed.

Without leaders,
soldiers have no army.

It is our hope that
they will go home,

retreat from the battle

and leave us with our...
beloved America.

Militarily, the plan is sound.

With God's help,
it will succeed.

Did I leave anything out?

God... bless America.

Oh. I would have
forgotten that.

What would I do
without you, Archie?

These gentlemen will accompany
us to the plane, just in case.

And you'd better give me

a refresher course
in flying, just in case.

Get in the ship.

Stay overhead where
you can see us.

If they're doing this to
expose us or capture us,

come down here
and pull us out.

It's time to go, Archie.

Yes, sir.

Good-bye, Sarah.

Good-bye.

Good-bye, my dearest.

Have a good day.

You, too, Sam.

I thought you were going to be
at the farm, Mr. Vincent.

I was under the impression
I'd be going with you

and I had no idea you'd
be leaving this early.

Archie and I have some
government business to take care of.

You wait here.
If there's time, we'll pick you up.

If not, you've done your job
and done it well.

Thank you.

That's a fine boy, Archie.

I'm glad he won't be killed.

Terrible responsibility
ordering men to their deaths.

Go ahead.

General...

Archie, trust me
just one more time.

There's a right way
to do these things

and take it from me,
I'm doing it.

You tell the crew
the target?

Yes, sir.

But not why?

No, sir.

Good boy.

Now get this monster off
the ground

and I'll be able to take over.

We might just make
it, Archie.

Surprise us both, huh?

Ready to give 'em
what for?

Come on!

Archie said that?

What else?

That I was to try
and reach you.

He thought you could
get everyone

away from the farm.

There's no phone
at the farm.

Marge, it's David.

Let me speak to Scoville.

How long ago did he leave?

You are negotiating
for your people?

I presume so... among others.

I'm not to open my instructions
for another five minutes.

When will the general arrive?

Shortly, I imagine.

Like swimming
or riding a bicycle.

Once you know how,
you never forget.

General, there's
something I've got

to talk to you about.

Shoot.

Where are we going?

To look at a farm.

Oh, are we going
to buy one?

No.

Mom, what's the matter?

Billy, your father's
not as young

as he used to be.

He's been working
very hard.

He's under a strain.

They were
getting ready

to retire him
before this.

Before what?

He's about to drop
a bomb on some people.

We're going
to ask him not to.

Apparently, he said he's
speaking for the president

when he isn't at all.

We don't know
the whole story.

What are you
talking about?

Just that if we
don't stop him,

we'll be at war.

Your father loves us
very much.

When he knows
we're at the farm,

he won't bomb it.

I don't believe you.

Why didn't you call
the Air Force?

They'd stop him.

Because then everyone
would know about it.

We're going to stop
him ourselves.

Why is he doing this?

He's used to
living violently.

That's the only way
he knows how

to get things done.

You what?

I ordered the
crew off, sir.

There's just two of us
flying this thing.

I didn't know any
other way to stop you.

Take over.

"Stop me"?

Stop me from what?

You bomb that farmhouse,
General,

you'll be killing good people--

your friends.

I know that!

You're a soldier, Harmon...

or I thought you were.

Whoever told you you can make
an omelet without breaking eggs?

Not only kill good people...
they'll retaliate.

They'll kill as many of us
as they can.

All right, they'll kill
a few of us,

but the rest of us
will be an army.

The world will know.

The bombs start to fall,
what world?

Just give it to them
without a fight?

Roll over, bellies up?

This whole charade
you went through

just to get 'em to the table
so you could bomb them.

You never intended
to talk to them.

"Talk."

People don't understand talk.

A kick in the teeth.

That's what
they understand.

(chuckles sardonically)

28 years I trusted a coward.

What did you tell Sarah?

I told her I was going
to try to talk you out of it.

If I couldn't,

she was going
to try to get

everyone away
from the farm.

Go there with Billy,
so you wouldn't bomb it.

That's what they understand.

At least we know
they aren't Chinese.

Edgar!

Concannon's flying in.

He's going to
bomb this place

in less
than a minute.

Ryder, do you have
a broadcast radio here?

Outside in a truck.

Make an all-bands transmission
over a ten-mile radius.

Talk to your husband.

Sam... dearest... Billy
and I are here at the farm.

We don't want you to do this.

Please don't.

Sam, can you hear me?

Don't do this.

Talk to me!

Please talk to me!

Sam, can
you hear me?

Don't do this!

Sam, talk to me!

Please talk to me!

I'm sorry, Sarah.

Sam, listen to me!

Mrs. Concannon, I'm sorry.

We tried, but there
are other people

who live in this area.

Can your men destroy
that plane?

We have less
than a minute.

There's a plane
in the area.

Destroy it at once.

Archie Harmon's
on that plane.

(hydraulic whirring)

(eerie whirring)

If we find
someone else

who will talk
with you?

Put yourself in my position,
Mr. Vincent.

Would you take
another chance?

I would.

One man like Concannon
doesn't mean

we couldn't work
it out.

There are men
in our government--

responsible, reasonable,
sane men you can talk to.

If we get someone
who is speaking for our president,

will you listen?

I don't know.

Will he listen to you?

NARRATOR:
David Vincent returns

to his war
against the invader.

He returns to his search
for another day

and another place

where the powers
from both sides

will meet again

and an armistice
will become a reality.
