All language subtitles for The.Twilight.Zone.S01E02.1080p.BluRay.x265-YAWNiX

There is a fifth dimension

beyond that which is known to man-

it is a dimension as vast as space

and as timeless as infinity-

it is the middle ground
between light and shadow

between science and superstition

and it lies between the pit of mans fears

and the summit of his knowledge-

this is the dimension of imagination

it is an area which we
call the twilight zone-

Right here, ladies and gentlemen,

special July clean up sale!

Lovely things, calamine lotion,

good for sunburns!

How about binoculars?

Street scene

summer, the present-

man on the sidewalk named Lou bookman-

age, sixtyish-occupation, pitchman-

Lou bookman, a fixture of the summer-

a rather minor component to a hot July.

A nondescript commonplace little man,

whose life is a treadmill

built out of sidewalks-

in just a moment, Lou bookman

will have to concern himself with survival-

because as of 3 o'clock
this hot July afternoon

hell be stalked by mr-death-

Hi, Lou!

Hello, darling! Oh, here, here.

Oh, my goodness, it is hot today!

Yeah.

Let's sit down.

What are you selling today, Lou?

Toys, Lou? Are you selling toys?

I'll show you what I was selling.

There's one for you.

Thanks, Lou!

That's alright, Maggie. Here, Ricky.

Thanks, Lou!

Now the Lou bookman
social and ice cream hour

takes place right after supper.

The regular turn now!

Don't forget!

Good bye.

Bye, Lou.

Don't forget the ice cream, huh?

You're, you're the man I
saw on the sidewalk today.

You were writing in a book.

You are Lou bookman, aren't you?

That's right-Louis j. Bookman,

is there something I can show you?

Maybe something in
collar stays? I'll get that.

No, Mr. Bookman. I'm
not here to buy anything.

Now let's get to business, shall we?

Louis j. Bookman, aged 69, right?

I'll be 70 in September.

Hm. Occupation, pitchman, right?

Yeah, that's right.

Are you a census taker?

Born in New York city in 1890.

That's right, 1890.

Father Jacob bookman, mother flora bookman.

Father's place of birth, Detroit, Michigan,

mother's place of birth
Syracuse, New York, right?

That's right. My goodness,

you got it all down in that book there.

Yes, we have to keep
these things efficient.

Now today is the 19th of July.

And your departure's at midnight tonight.

My departure?

Oh, excuse me.

Hi, Maggie!

The key's bad, Lou. Can you fix it?

Oh, sure, come on right in!

Come on in.

Let me see it.

Well, there's your trouble right there.

See that little cogwheel?

Well, you've been pushing in that
key when you were winding it. You see?

See? Now it's all right.

See?

I'd introduce you two, only
I don't know your name.

No need.

I think I got it now, Lou.

This gentleman came here
to ask me a lot of questions.

What gentleman?

That gentleman!

What gentleman?

Mr-bookman, she cant see me or hear me-

why not?

Why not what, Lou?

Why can't you see him or hear him?

See who, Lou?

It works great now, Lou.

Thanks an awful lot. See
you after supper, huh?

Now wait a minute. You
haven't forgot your manners.

Aren't you gonna say goodbye?

Oh, yeah. Good bye, Lou. Thanks a lot!

No, no, I mean to the gentleman there.

Oh, it's a game.

The invisible man. Goodbye, invisible man.

See you after supper, Lou.

I can see you, yet she can't.

Only those who are to
accompany me can see me-

understand, mr-bookman?

Uh, mr-bookman,

only those that are to
accompany me can see me.

Now don't you think you ought to
start making your arrangements?

Arrangements? For what?

For your departure.

My departure where?

You just don't get it.

I just will never understand you people.

You get the idiotic notion
that life goes on forever.

Of course, it doesn't.

Everyone has to go sometime.

Go? You mean...

That's right. And what I
further don't understand

how little you appreciate
the nature of your departure.

Think of all the poor souls
who go in violent accidents.

The non precognition victims.

We're not permitted to forewarn them.

You, Mr. Bookman, fall into the category

of "natural causes."

"Natural causes?"

Number one, I find you a very devious sort,

number two,

I think that you're dishonest.

Number three, why don't
you say what you mean!

Mr. Bookman, I've done everything
but phone your own undertaker.

How much clearer do you want it?

If you still don't know who I am

then you're the dumbest
man I've come up against.

You are... you're death?

Exactly, Mr. Bookman.

Now, shall we get down to business?

Time of departure is midnight tonight.

I trust that will suit you.

Preordination is for death during sleep.

I assume this too will
meet with your approval.

You'll find this a relatively
simple and painless...

No, just a minute. I don't wanna go!

No, they never do.

But there's no reason to
go. I'm a very healthy man!

Outside of a slight cold I had last winter,

and a sliver that festered
in that finger there,

I don't think I've had
a sick day in 20 years!

That may be,

but departure time is set for midnight.

And departure will be midnight.

Don't I have anything to say about that?

We do listen to appeals

but frankly, Mr. Bookman,
there's very little here

in the way of an extenuating circumstance.

There are three major
categories of appeals.

One, is hardship cases.

Now do you have a wife or family

who might suffer beyond a
reasonable point your demise?

No, no family. No.

The second category is priority cases

statesmen, scientists, men
on the verge of discoveries.

I take it you're not working on any
major scientific pursuit at the moment.

No no.

What's the third category?

I don't think you're qualified here either.

Unfinished business of a major nature.

You don't have any
unfinished business, do you?

Ah, but I do!

Indeed I do!

That's it, you see. I... yeah.

I have some unfinished business.

Unfinished business, yes.

I've never flown in a
helicopter. That's it.

I've never flown...

Insufficient, mr-bookman-

anything else?

Now you look here. I've
lived in this room for 21 years.

And you keep popping up in corners
of the room I've never even seen before.

Will you please stay in one place?

Is there anything else, Mr. Bookman?

Yes, yes.

I have never seen a zulu war dance.

Now that's the answer right there.

So you'll have to give me a couple of
months to go over to that zulu country

no?

No. Unfinished business of a major nature

is something a man had yearned for

and something he might
accomplish given an extension-

well, there is one thing.

What is it, Mr. Bookman?

Well, between you and me,

I never made a truly big pitch.

I mean, I mean a big pitch.

A pitch big enough
for the skies to open up.

You know, a pitch for the angels-

of course, it wouldn't
mean very much to you,

but it would mean a great deal to me.

It would mean that for one moment

in my whole life I would have
done something successful.

It would mean that maybe the
children would be very proud of me.

The children?

Yes, yes, I've always had quite a
fondness for children, you know.

Yes, that's all here in the record.

The problem here, Mr. Bookman,
is that you'd require delay until...

Until I make a pitch!

The kind of pitch I was
talking to you about.

The one for the angels?

That's right. One for the angels.

I'm terribly sorry, Mr. Bookman,

but, no.

You see, these categories are very specific

and when reference is made to
unfinished business of a major nature,

the only interpretation to be made here

is simply that...

What... what I mean is that, uh,

unfortunately, Mr. Bookman,

an ability to, to succeed

in a given professional venture

is really hardly of a major...

Mean a great deal to you, does it?

A great deal.

All right, mr-bookman-

under the circumstances I
believe I can Grant you a delay-

until...

What do you mean 'until?'
Until you've made this pitch.

I can live til then?

That's the agreement.

Oh, well I think that's a fine bargain.

I didn't get your name.

Now, about this pitch, Mr. Bookman,

when might we expect it?

When?

Oh, soon. You know.

Maybe not this year, maybe not
for a couple of years, but soon.

I have the very odd feeling that
you're taking advantage of me.

Oh, you have? Well, that's a pity,

because I am!

You'll never catch me
making a pitch anymore.

You think you can fool me, eh?

I'll hardly open my mouth from now on.

Really, Mr. Bookman?

This is much more serious than you imagine.

It's much more complex than
you realize, what you've just done.

Here I've gone out of my way to help you

and this is the way you repay me?

Mr. Bookman.

It won't just end here, you understand?

There will be consequences, you see?

Fyi, that means for you information

you made your bed and
you shall have to sleep in it.

We made a bargain that I don't
have to go until I make a pitch.

And you'll have to wait
until I make that pitch.

I can say this without the
least fear of contradiction.

Have you got a long wait!

That may well be, Mr. Bookman,

but since you won't come with me,

I've been forced to select an alternative.

Maggie!

Maggie!

I swear I didn't see her.

She jumped right off the curb
and I had no chance to stop.

I swear to you I never
had no chance to stop at all.

Well, then someone send for a doctor!

Get an ambulance.

I'll call one.

You're gonna be all right, darling.

You're gonna be just fine.

Hi, Lou.

Hello, sweetheart.

Lou?

Yes?

Who's that man?

Do you see him?

Yes, Lou.

Hey, wait a minute.

You can't take her.

No, siree, you can't take her.

Now listen, I'll go. Never mind the pitch.

I don't even want to
wait, I'll go right now.

You can't take her.

I'll go with you, I'll...

http://hiqve.com/

How's Maggie, doctor?

I can't tell. I can't tell.

Doctor?

It's hard to tell. She's
a very sick little girl,

but we'll know soon, she
should have a crisis by midnight.

By midnight?

I think by then.

He won't come here. I
won't let him come here.

Good evening, Mr. Bookman.

You've got business in there?

I most certainly do.

It's quarter to 12:00.
In 15 minutes, midnight.

That's my appointment.

Mr. Death, that little
girl's only 8 years old.

I'm ready now.

I'm sorry, Mr. Bookman, but I
had to make other arrangements.

It's impossible to change them now.

She's to come with me at midnight,

so I must be in there at midnight.

And if you're not in there?

It would be pretty much unheard of.

You see, if I didn't get in
there at precisely midnight,

then the whole timetable would be upset.

It's unheard of.

It's unheard of?

What are you doing, Mr. Bookman?

I'm just setting up a pitch, that's all.

At this time of night?

Oh, I very often have
a late sale. Very often!

Not many customers.

Oh, they'll be here.

They'll come round... you're here, anyway.

Oh, yes, I'm here.

But I'm afraid I'm not much of a customer.

How do you know? Have you seen my stock?

Take this lovely tie here, for instance.

Oh, oh, excuse me.

What does that look like to you?

It looks like a tie.

Feel it.

So...

Ladies and gentlemen,

if you will feast your eyes

on probably the most exciting invention

since atomic energy.

A simulated silk so fabulously conceived

as to mystify even the ancient
Chinese silk manufacturers.

An almost unbelievable attention to detail!

It has a wonderful work of weaving.

Witness, if you will, a
demonstration of tensile strength-

feel that if you will, sir.

Unbelievable, isn't it?

As strong as steel.

Yet as fragile and
delicate as shantung silk.

Picture if you will 300 years

of backbreaking research and labor,

to develop this-

the absolute ultimate in strength-

and what would you expect to pay

for this fabulous, I say
fabulous, incredible,

amazing development of the tailor's art?

Would you pay 30 dollars a spool?

25? 20? 10?

Well, very well you might, sir,

if you were trying to
purchase this at stores.

But this fantastic thread
is not available in stores-

it is smuggled in by oriental birds

especially trained for ocean travel.

Each carrying a bit
quantity in a small satchel

underneath their Ruby throats.

It takes 832 crossings

to suppl y enough thread
to go around one spool-

and tonight, at my special

get acquainted, introductory,
mid July hot summer sale

I offer you this fabulous thread

not at 20 dollars a spool,

not at 10, not at 5,

but at the ridiculously low
price of 25 cents a spool-

I'll take all you have.

Sewing needles, yarn,

marvelous plastic shoelaces,
genuine static eradicator

will fit any standard radio,

suntan oil, eczema powder,

razors, athletes feet destroyer,

how about some nice
simulated kashmir socks...

All right, all right. I'll take it all.

All of it. Right there.

And now for the piece de resistance.

An item never before offered
in this or any other country.

One guaranteed live human man saver.

How's that?

For what I ask

you sir, receive a willing, capable,

worldly, highly sophisticated,
wonderfully loyal

right hand man

to use in any capacity you see fit.

How's that?

Me!

Louis j. Bookman,

the first model of his kind,

he comes to you with an absolute guarantee

all parts interchangeable.

With a certificate of
4 years service ability

he eats little, he sleeps little,

he rests only occasionally,

and there he is at your elbow

at you Beck and call whenever you need him-

Mr. Bookman, you are a persuasive man.

I challenge any other store

wholesale house or industry

to even come close to
matching what I offer you here.

Because my dear man,

I offer you, I offer you...

It's midnight!

It's midnight and I've
missed my appointment!

Give her the sedatives every
three hours, Mrs. Polansky.

She'll be all right. She
just needs a lot of rest now.

She's all right.

One minute past 12:00, Mr. Bookman.

And you made me miss my appointment.

Thank god.

A most persuasive pitch, Mr. Bookman.

An excellent pitch.

Yes, it's quite a pitch, very effective.

It's the best I've ever done.

It's the kind of a pitch I've
always wanted to make.

A big one.

A pitch so big,

so big that the sky would open up.

A pitch for the angels.

That's right, a pitch for the angels.

Well, I guess it's time for me now.

As per our agreement.

Well, I'm ready.

After you, Mr. Bookman.

Oh, excuse me, I forgot something

I'll be back in a minute.

You never know who might
need something up there.

Up there?

Up there, Mr. Bookman.

You made it.

Louis j-bookman,

age, sixtyish, occupation, pitchman-

formally, a fixture of the summer,

formall y, a rather minor
component to a hot jul y-

but throughout his life a
man beloved by the children

and therefore, a most important man-

it couldn't happen, you say?

Probably not in most places,

but it did happen

in the twilight zone.

Rod serling, the creator of twilight zone,

will tell you about next weeks story

after this word from our alternate sponsor-

and now, mr-serling-

next week, we invite you to take a walk

down a western frontier street

Whose salvations lies in
nothing less than a magic potion,

and a Colt 45.

mr-denton on doomsday-

next week on the twilight zone.

We hope you'll be able to be
with us. Thank you and good night.
