SL SL

slides I can't find those

slides they would start hiding now why

you try your case you put them in there

10 minutes

ago look this is no time for jokes

however just to show

you I'm sorry Frank it's a conference

jts you sure you got your

speech of course idiot

it's coming on at the end that worries

me nervous huh what do you think I

thought you did a lot of this sort of

thing when you're in America yes but

this is the first time in Germany

remember the weeker sex by the way this

is as much your staff is mine Dr Overton

a we settled all that two weeks ago

let's not go over it again oh

incidentally uh Joan's coming tonight

Joan Joan Jo no don't tell me Joan Joan

my wife

I'm sorry I'm sorry Frank you're

forgiven come on the old man's

waiting oh I'm ready when you are can

you imagine the girl says she's nervous

I shouldn't be surprised

[Music]

we will be here for the next 6 weeks I

don't think you make

after ah well there's the great man

himself and

you and this I'm sure is our Charming

German colleague Dr V how do you do sir

how do you doing I've heard a lot about

your exciting work with over that's why

I came here to tell you what think of it

well I uh I hope you won't be too

disappointed sir Keith the park this for

me will you Frank and I'll catch up with

you later I ran into Blazer the other

day he was asking after

you at Pap is old fool he gives me a

pain oh forget him think of my worries

instead

rats were placed in a cold environment

and made to rebreath their exper air in

a closed vessel so that the proportion

of oxygen decreased and that of carbon

dioxide increased right in front

naturally the body temperature fell to

-70° C

as you might well suppose the overall

effect of

this join us at the same time next week

for Joe Overton's next interesting talk

on current fashion well don't my love if

you think that's a fashion talk you

should be hung drawn and quarter why

what's wrong with it what's wrong with

it telling all those nice kids to buy a

good suit that will last years and just

ring the changes on the

accessories it's positively immoral

[Applause]

Sho how long have you had this cheap Old

Rag H 3

days and how long do you intend to keep

it well it depends if my loving husband

likes it or not he hasn't seen it yet I

bet he won't like it why not grow up

baby or do I have to make you a drawing

oh that oh well he's used to that he w't

mind what makes you think so I'm I used

to

ah do you really think I've over done it

if it were anybody else I'd say yes but

as it's

you come on I've got my page to look

after and it's getting

late oh let's have one for the road you

can't have you can't go to a scientific

meeting smelling of drink you're

joking it'll be over by the time I get

there with any luck then why the

finery female

competition ah now you're moving into my

country and what does that mean Helen

vand Helen vand who is she a beautiful

scientist the blood thickens come come

come well she was called in by the World

Health

Service and Frank was asked to help her

and man does she need help I don't see

Frank these days

what the hell do they do believe it or

not they stick chimpanzees into a deep

freeze for a few

months and bring them out alive both the

parent chimpanzees have been deep Frozen

and kept in the coal store at a

temperature of- 80° Centigrade for 3

months before they were M

it we've been carrying out very

exhaustive tests none of the

experimental animals have suffered any

damage to the brain or major nerve

centers

[Applause]

whatsoever in

conclusion the great problem until now

of all low temperature work with large

animals has been how to stop the heart

and then freeze the blood quick enough

to to prevent brain damage from oxygen

starvation happily Dr Frank Overton's

thermal control panel has solved this

difficulty but now we find ourselves

face to face with a very intriguing

question where

next I'm afraid I shall have to ask Dr

Overton to deal with that part of the

discussion thank you very much for your

[Applause]

attention oh can you tell me where the

low temperature lecture is first floor

thank

you excuse me m do we have in invitation

my husband's Dr Frank over there is that

any help that'll be all right thank I'm

thank

you what's the maximum period of

successful cold

starge well our maximum is 3 months but

uh in theory that could be extended to 3

years 30 years 300 years just as long as

you like uh it makes no difference

they'd still come back as good as new

it's very simple for where life is

suspended time actually has no meaning

at

all I should like to know if you foresee

any possibility of extending your

experiments to the human

animal it occurs to me for instance that

some of our aging politicians might

welcome the idea of going to Cold

Storage until the next general election

we'd be very happy to oblig the

opposition although I'm afraid they

might like a trial or a test run first

uh perhaps the questioner would like to

volunteer to be the first guinea

[Laughter]

pig I must have notice of that question

but seriously I take it that you are

still a long way from Human dee oh no

sir you go ahead you go ahead I'll

handle the brick bads well

the question is are we still a long way

from Human deep freeze the answer is no

we are right on the doorstep Dr Overton

and I are convinced that we could take a

suitable human being freeze him and

revive him with all his faculties intact

all we want is a chance to show we can

do

it Haven any problem with the

chimp ladies and

gentlemen ladies and

gentlemen ladies and gentlemen I am

sorry but our time is up and I'm afraid

the fascinating subject of deep freezing

the human animal must itself go into

cold storage for the moment it only

remains for me to thank all our

contributors for this very interesting

Symposium on

hypothermia you haven't noticed it

haven't noticed how could I miss it D I

get your drink a SC you mean a

Sher oh Frank Frank do come and help my

voice is giving out very nice to see you

again

goodbye sorry to H but I'd like to have

a word with you oh dear I was just going

to talk to Mrs ens so unfortunately I've

got to leave in a

minute oh very

well down no Sher only me champagne I

hate it I'm sorry to hang up like that

it was my fault Mrs Overton I didn't

realize Frank was getting you a drink do

call me Joan it's much friendlier in the

circumstances oh yes I'd like to I

expect you know my name is Helen yes I

saw it in the

program I'm sorry I couldn't get here

before I'm sure your speech must have

been

fascinating daring would you get me

another I think we ought to get

something to eat well you poor daring

must be starving why didn't you say so

before you must come and have a meal

with us sometime har what do you mean

sometime no time like present oh uh

you're very kind and I'd love to but um

the speechmaking has worn me out I can

hardly wait to get back home thank you

very much you sure you want to change

your mind No not tonight goodbye

goodbye oh de that's too bad I wish

should join us you know I think your

Helen's got

something perhaps we should go home

after all

I thought you wanted to show off your

new outfit darling I only wanted to

please

you let's

go I hope I've made myself clear I

cannot have the unit associated in any

way with be Free's experiments on humans

of course but it's a point we must reach

one day not while I'm in charge I hope

by the way are you free next Friday

morning I'm not sure why they're going

to refreeze suie suie yes the mother

Chimp in that family group that help be

shoulders why don't you come along and

watch well I'll I'll see what I can do

so

[Music]

long what temperature is she

now Min is 10

[Applause]

oh she doesn't look Frozen to me stupid

old

I don't forget she's absorbed about a

gallon of glycerol that's why she hasn't

diced up yet Martin did you put a new

cylinder in yes sir Ved on the telephone

long distance all right thanks Martin

you manage Helen yes of

course now we are taking her right down

to -

80 is that carbon dioxide yes we freeze

it around her what's the point why not

Peck her in dry ice straight

away first thought yes yes but uh on

second thoughts

no you see sir Keith the body surface

would cool much quicker than the

interior if we did that now this way all

the body processes are arrested

simultaneously then she'll stay sweet

and sound until we wake up I see

are you ready Martin yes sir all right

let's

[Music]

go oh yes hey just a

minute how

much how

much you couldn't have timed it better

oh I better take that

down hold it a minute Frank

well there's your ice Su that's quick

it's just as well cuz we pretty tired at

that

stage - 75 going on

automatic all right Martin let's reer

[Music]

up minus 80 on automatic

stabilizing are you through yes good

that was a most impressive demonstration

most impressive indeed he must come

again when they they do the

resuscitation that's much more exciting

to watch oh by the way I've laid on tea

in my office will you come Helen and you

Frank no we were going to get uh check

you ready oh but surely you can spare a

few minutes as I was saying when the

heart starts beating again and you hear

the first thud on the amplif fire that's

really

exciting ah as the tea doesn't seem to

have turned up why I read you a message

I've just received by telephone perhaps

you'd like to drink a glass of champagne

in honor of the winners of the Alexis

Carol

award Helen Maria vand of Munich

Germany and Francis Henry Overton of

Boston USA for their remarkable advances

in the field of low temperature research

which opens up far-reaching

possibilities in human surgery Carol

that's almost on par with the Nobel

Prize certainly in terms of cash they'll

get $25,000 each

20

Frank yes

$25,000 and you can spend it all on this

if you like oh I'm sorry would you have

preferred tea

[Applause]

12

4596 Frank hi daring just wanted to

check and see if you were there I'll be

along shortly I don't believe it you're

not ill are you well it depends on how

you look at it sit tight I'll be there

in a few minutes great

bye what's all that about put your

skates on Frank's coming home what's

going on half term Parents Day

Archbishop Street cut the wise talk and

go man just go huh are you trying to get

rid of me oh no what do you

think oh Jonah is really excited for the

first time in her life she can have

anything do anything she wants it must

be that chagne I still can't take it

in ah here you

are I've just been speaking to Professor

hubard about another matter which he

thinks you both ought to hear about by

the way it concerns you in particular

Overton what is that s Kei

this Splendid piece of news has come

just at the right moment to set the seal

on your work with Dr vand uh worthy

Victor's Garland so to speak so now we

must give you new fields to

conquer Professor Bradshaw wants you to

take over the remote control sampler for

their radiation

investigation so Keith we we just barely

scratched the surface of this low

temperature project

precisely the p never ex finished it's

time for the big Battalion now to step

in you may be right but you still need

us I've considered the possibility and

decided that Dr vand should carry on

here you mean you want to break us up

now when we've just reached the final

stage of our work what exactly do the

words final State refer to Dr vand the

first human experiment of course I

consider all this talk about a human

deep freeze experiment extremely ill

advised and premature the Alexis car

trustees don't seem to share your

opinion sir Keith no one hopes more

fervently than I for the day when

suffering Humanity can be treated by

your method and be cured but it would be

fatal to encourage false hopes despite

the enthusiasm of the current trustees

you don't think for one minute that

we've been conducting these experiments

for the welfare of a half a dozen

monkeys do you the high policy of the

executive is outside your turns of

reference Dr Overton what the hell do

you think we've been doing here just

don't want you around when Frank gets

back that's all why not a little

competition would do my world of good he

might stop thinking of you as simply

another body for the Deep Freeze what

are you trying to do look in the mirror

my sweet I'm trying to get a very

attractive woman back into

circulation if a chimpanzee dies during

an experiment that's one thing but a

human life is quite

different I'm sorry but the risk of

failure is much too great sir Keith the

certainty of Destruction by incurable

disease is absolute it is only by

experiment and occasional failure we

discover the knowledge and techniques

that make for Success all we are asking

for is to carry out these experiments in

a calm and secure atmosphere that is no

part of my responsibility it most

certainly is and until you give your

word the millions of people throughout

the world suffering from incurable

diseases will have to face their fate as

best they can you know what my mother

used to say the years raise by but the

magic

lingers that's how it is with us

you are wasting your time look we had

our little

interlude and it was over the day I met

Frank you knew that well nothing has

changed it's Frank now and

always in my experience as a crime

writer don't clear off you're reaching

the point of no return and it'll hurt

you more than it'll hurt me

[Music]

I think that young woman is most

persuasive possibly because her fiance

died of cancer ah that accounts for it I

think if I knew I had only a few weeks

to live I'd volunteer for

her by the way H I think you ought to

step in huh you must tell them that

human experiments are

out they'll take it better from you in

the meantime of course I shall consult

various authorities

well I must be going now you mean you'll

sit on the fence and if someone makes a

fuss later I shall take the r my dear

hubard I have no such thought in mind

well put your veto in writing for the

record and if you do that I'll pass it

[Music]

on8 or

,000 in dollars that's 25,000 anyway you

look at it oh Frank oh oh what can we do

with it whatever you'd like what would

you

like messes of

things we could have another car you

know a little one for Town sure and then

we could have a fabulous holiday and we

could have a little period cottage for

the weekends you know that's something

I've been thinking about not the

weekends but a place in the country long

walks and fresh air I could commute give

me a chance to catch up on my reading

yeah what about my job listen what about

your job there you think about time you

were quitting

it oh yeah but you all the money you

make it either goes in taxes or you

spend it on clothes

I I don't know I with been Mar 5 years

I'd like to start thinking

about having

kids

[Music]

kids yeah you you you want to family

don't you oh sure

but you that settled then yeah let's

celebrate

that when do we

start start what while looking for the

house on weekends it be fun driving

around and when we find what we want I

start raising the family is that it

better as far as I'm concerned that's up

to you mhm and when does Helen vean

leave

Munich I I don't know you don't have to

look so upset about it

Frank upset what is what has Helen Dyan

got to do without without having a

family look if you think I'm going to

lose my looks and my figure retire to

this grand house in the country take

long walks and plenty of fresh air while

you catch up on your

reading with that woman around you're

[Music]

crazy but you're not serious you can't

be jealous of Helen no more than you are

of Tony look you can call it intelligent

anticipation you may not be in love with

her but she certainly is in love with

you let me set you straight about

something Helen and I work together we

work together harmoniously but it begins

and ends with our work what do you think

we are a couple of newspaper people

touche but you're human and so is she

and you're out of your mind am I well I

watched her at that lecture hall why

don't you knock it off just knock it

off now that you mention it yes she is

attractive and she's human

also where are you going I'm working

tonight oh another experiment huh all

night oh yes every

[Music]

night

[Applause]

[Music]

oh

hello Tony

was she

thrilled I guess you might say she was

she got a little steamed up I'm not

surprised I got steamed up too well she

got steamed up in a different way she's

she's annoyed because I can't take her

to dinner

tonight well I shouldn't you all you

have to do is verify those figures and

then Martin and I can do the

rest you see at

115 the cryogenic modulator was

at-40 and then 10 minutes

late 10 minutes

later it would be better if you went

home you want me

to

yes I know

I'll call

her I better see what Martin's up

[Music]

you find it you can start on

[Music]

in the morning

s that's

simply ah

hey what's

this huh put that thing down which thing

the gun and always remember the old

saying never not even in fun point a gun

at anyone it's a damn stupid thing to do

all right don't blow your

upb what you keep it for

anyway it's a souvenir I got of a little

crook I whitewashed him in a very dirty

story

Hy listen when you finish writing Your

Love Letter can we go to that little

jungle place again cuz I like it there

turn in this story puppet it will it be

Daybreak well don't be a spoiled sport

onlyy you said we were having fun look

you said it was just just like the old

days remember why don't you go home and

as you have decided to wander about all

right do that go back to your jungle I'm

going to work in peace good

night jump in the lake

good

night don't worry about it even if SEI

does put his veto in writing I shall

bring the matter up again at the

scientific Council thank you I've

already told Frank he took it very

calmly considering he's not exactly fond

of SEI at the best of

times Joan asked him to take her out

tonight very natural under the

circumstances oh yes I mean um I think

they must have had a pretty bad Row in

fact I know they did well that's their

business isn't it oh yes of course it's

just I'm sorry it happened that's all

Helen has it occurred to you that

Frank's wife may feel rather shut

out I don't see why ours has just been a

happy working relationship I

know but it's not always easy to keep it

that way good

night I certainly asked for it but I'm

sorry you had to say it it was necessary

you see I've been very

[Music]

careful huh

there you

are I suppose I'm the last person you

want to

see the same goes for

me I've got something to tell

you most important I Martin would you

tell Dr over when his wife is

here I don't want to see

him I want to see

her as a matter of fact you can go to

all is full of people like

you you're wasting your

time cuz you're not going to get the

better of Me Oh

no you're got to get more than you

bargain for what the heck Helen you'd

better go no what's going on

here come on John let's go home no come

on let's no no oh let me go I want to

see her

po

Frank ring him up when I've gone tell

him not to worry about it nobody will

ever refer to it

again do you hear

her yes I I'll do

that what a queer sort of day it's

been now everybody knows what you have

to put up

with when you you leave me they'll say

what a surprised it lasted that

long that'll suit your book won't

it why did you say something what the

hell do you want me to

say look why don't you get your clothes

off and get into bed talk about this

thing in the morning I want to talk now

you're no condition to talk about

anything now

you I wish I was dead oh that's a bright

drunken

speech

hello Hellen good of you to

call yes yeah it's all right

now Professor Howard asked me to let you

know oh that was nice of him Helen thank

you

well I'm not worried it's just

that God he didn't see

this hold on will

you what are you doing with

[Music]

that give me the

gun give me the gun

gun

Frank

Frank

help

Helen thank God I thought I thought I

heard a gun go off no no no no nothing

no she uh she tripped over a lamp and

the uh the bulb exploded I'll try and

get over later

[Music]

was terrible I thought I killed you that

wasn't very bright of me but I thought

you were going to do something

stupid I only tried to hide

it I didn't want you to see

it where'd you get the gun John

tonies they took it they didn't

know how long he had it tonight I went

around to his place

after after we had a

quarrel you mean you had this thing when

you came to the lab

tonight I I only meant to F

her it was mad I I was all mixed up just

must have been the scotch

you brought this thing along to frighten

Helen look I I swear to you I didn't

take it out of the bag she she didn't

see honestly did you know the gun was

loaded don't look at me like answer me

did you know

didn't only said it was

empty it wasn't his fault frag let me

give to him back please frag

breathe you got to believe me I swear to

you I didn't know it was

loaded I was so

unhappy I wanted to I wanted her to know

that to see what she was doing to

me Frank I've tried for weeks and weeks

I felt you going further and further

away from me I I didn't want to

do I know she's the kind of woman you

ought to have

married but I couldn't get you let you

no I love you too much I I just felt

tonight if I didn't have a show done i'

I'd go out of my

mind I'm probably more to blame than you

are you stop worrying about Helen I'm

being transferred next week

well it's empty

now are you ready to start now Dr whe

yes but uh Dr Overton said he'd ring so

let's give him a few more minutes uh by

the way is there any more coffee what

again

yes again I'm an addict of course

not thought you'd gone to bed yeah I'm

going in a minute but I wanted to talk

to you go ahead do you think do you

think we can get away for a little while

you know just a little

holiday I don't don't suppose you could

fix that

huh I I could

I it would mean helping Helen with that

experiment

tonight can't let her do it alone mean

all night which uh you're not very fond

of I my

darling Oh I love you so

much I hope the experiment will be a

great big smashing

success it will be

you better

[Music]

[Applause]

be 1245 96 ton ton me what have you done

with my gun oh well I was going to play

a silly joke and unfortunately it

misfired Miss

fire well I was going to bring it back

come and fetch it all

right all right Martin we start K thanks

for calling me Frank I'm glad you didn't

go ahead with Jackie I was just going to

I got a much better idea you realize of

course that once Vernon puts that Beto

in writing sunk we can't go ahead

without getting hovered into hot water

we've got to be there first yes but how

tonight we're going to experiment on me

no look so shocked I don't know I didn't

think of this thing sooner I'm perfect

for the experiment right weight

everything believe me it'll go like

clockwork and see oh you have the ratio

figures for the human experiment all we

have to do is add an extra lead of

glycerol no it's too much of a

risk what do you mean too much of a risk

there is no risk we've been saying

there's no risk I know I know but it's

different when you're faced with it I

mean we could be wrong

will the human heart stand it and what

about brain damage from oxygen

starvation and what about your

wife I'm doing this for for Joan

too no Frank no I won't do it I can't

not with you I'd be too scared of

something going wrong unless of course

that's what you

want you're are Ming

yourself h do you realize what this

means if this experiment is successful

and it's bound to be successful it it

opens up unlimited possibilities for the

world of surgery and think of future

Generations Helen it'll free them of

malignant disease look it's something

we've discussed a thousand times back

and forth it's something we're agreed

upon it's something you do yourself well

isn't it answer

me all right you

win

naturally Martin

we're going to conduct our first human

experiment tonight you're going to be a

part of it oh you don't expect me no no

no no no it's it's on me it's on

me Joon are you going to be long coming

right

away you had better you owe me an

explanation what does this

mean oh I haven't seen

that will it just went off come don't

worry have a drink you're right I need

it and put that gun down oh that's all

right don't worry it isn't loaded Frank

made sure of that this is no laughing

matter if there had been an accident I

might have landed in jail what with your

uncle a police vice president more than

ever I never got it licensed it should

been handed in to the police

incidentally whilst bearing our souls

where's Frank on his last experiment oh

back to the

Apes name your poison Jin you have no

whiskey lime juice please I'm on the

wagon from now on for how long

forever whatever forever and

ever you don't believe me do

you well here's I'll be to say to Joan

the

soak good

[Music]

God don't

move I'll phone for an

ambulance you'll be all right don't

worry away

Tony don't I'm here

joh what

why say what Happ why it's an

automatic so he thought it was empty the

last bullet was in the

muscle I should have

checked oh

my what do you mean

[Music]

no you mean Frank doesn't know it was my

[Music]

gun the heart stops here

and the blood freezes here at minus one

and this is where every second is going

to count we have got to close this Gap

faster than we've ever done it before

must have a bigger safety margin because

of his

brain yes this is where there's a risk

of damage if we're

unlucky you better hurry up Helen I'm

going to fall asleep on you I'm coming

Frank

sh

[Applause]

yes Martin how shall I enter this Dr

vand what was our last serial number

x700

[Applause]

don't I'm sorry you're tired out

what's wrong trouble with the

experiment I hope

not you see it isn't

Jackie Frank came back last night he

insisted he

Frank we talked about Sir Keith trying

to stop us from doing a human experiment

he said we must get in first must must

must is that all oh you know Frank as

usual he started on our mission to

humanity he corned me what could I say

so Frank offered himself as a guinea pig

and you accepted

him because of his

wife what she got to do with it does his

wife know

and when you going to bring him

back tonight Martin will come at

7:00 yes but what does he

want oh I see oh and send him

in there's a man from the police he

wants to see

Frank he can't can he any idea what he

wants no

no oh well then you better go home I'll

talk to oh no please let me

stay why don't you tell

me

afterwards

perhaps come

in good morning sorry to bother you I'm

Det inspector pren this is Sergeant

Green well I'm professor hubard and this

is Dr

vand morning Madam I understand you want

to see Dr Overton if he's here sir he is

I thought he might be SC outside but

he's not available at the moment no it

better make him available that's not so

easy he's involved in an experiment then

you better stop for a while I've got

some important questions to ask him I'm

afraid he's unconscious perhaps you

better tell me what you want him for at

this stage that's not of your business

sir

then you better make it my business

inspector we may want to keep Dr over

and unconscious for weeks even months do

I understand that that you will hinder

the police and the execution of their

Duty no I'm asking you to tell me what

you want to talk to Dr Overton about I

well we think Dr Overton can help us in

connection with his wife's sudden and

violent death by

shooting

no perhaps Dr reent could be more

helpful one moment inspector this lady

is a member of an international

organization shouldn't you warn her that

she doesn't have to answer your

questions at this stage yes yes of

course I was about to do that very

doctor I

can I can only say I'm I'm very shocked

to hear the

news he's a dear friend and colleague

yes yes I only one

fact for the early part of the evening

he was

here his wife called he they they left

and later he returned to do the

experiment where he now I'll answer that

Helen at the moment Dr Overton is in the

Next Room in a glass case surrounded by

solidified gas at about minus 40°

centigrade and as you might expect his

life processes are suspended means

either life or death I mean what I say

suspended

alive alive I suppose he can be revived

well this is an

experiment can I see that

case yes you can see

it you stay here yes sir

[Applause]

[Music]

[Music]

[Applause]

are you prepared to sare You Inside Yes

and

alive I hope so I can't raise the dead

it would be very awkward if he passed on

what you have told me is contrary to

Human Experience I hope that is the

truth

for your sakes scientists are as

interested in the truth as the Police

Inspector have even of you any reason to

suppose that Dr Overton undertook this

experiment in the hope of escaping from

the consequences of his

actions Dr Overton is a brilliant

medical scientist if he wanted to escape

anything permanently all he would have

to do is inject himself with some drug

go to sleep peacefully and not wake up

again that should answer your point

inspector

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

I want Dr Overton revived as soon as

possible now think about it inspector Dr

vand has been working intensely for over

24 hours and there are many other

considerations which don't concern you

I'll let you have my decision later in

the day you are probably very wise

Professor human mind plays funny tricks

when suffering from lack of

sleep Sant I want you to stay in the

laboratory until I sent

sir what are our

chances I can only use the technique we

developed

and pray

ah so your secretary did manage to get

hold of

you he did indeed I've been traveling

the whole day I thought you wouldn't

want to miss the fun I'm certainly

relieved to see that the whole place

isn't swarming with reporters no because

we've persuaded the police to let us

finish the resuscitation in

peace in peace how but don't you realize

the full implications of this business

we don't know the facts yet the facts

are

obvious

Overton shot his wife returned to the

laboratory and with forine V's willing

connivance embarked upon this experiment

either as a red herring or a wild Act of

pennance the police haven't ruled out

suicide merely because the wound could

have been

self-inflicted but how could a dying

woman dispose of a weapon and why on

Earth should she so the gun wasn't found

if the experiment fails as I have no

doubt it will and over and escapes

Justice the whole Affair will become a

public scandal we should all be

involved well and vand will no doubt be

charged with being an accessory after

the fact your control of your staff will

be severely criticized not to say

anything about my own

authority oh I'm sure you'll come out

all right I intend to in the interests

of the organization well are you going

to stay and watch naturally do you know

Carl mimer the pathologist he's here

mermer here the police wanted an

independent medical Observer why to make

sure that hel does everything she can to

bring Frank back alive I imagine K

merham of all people oh he's quite a

nice chap I don't care what he's like

every Tom Dick and Harry in this country

knows his name and connects it with

Sensational criminal trials this is

getting worse and

worse things should start happening

pretty fast now how soon can you tell if

his brain is undamaged he'll be able to

talk for a minute or two and then he'll

slip back into a sort of coma a coma and

how' you deal with that by stimulating

the heart we bet trigger that judging

how much you give him is a difficulty I

would imagine yes I have to be careful

not to over stimulate or he might die of

shock would you say then that the final

stage is the most

critical in uh this

case yes

this is Dr M sir Keith ver oh how do you

do what are these

for emergency use if he looks like

passing out no in case one of you allot

comes over que Martin are you ready

coming

doctor there will soon be opening up to

cofen stick by the door and keep it

Frank hi there

for a minute I I thought I'd lost

[Music]

you one year ago those of us who knew Dr

Overton well never doubted for a moment

that his motives in volunteering for

this remarkable experiment were purely

scientific I perhaps more than anyone

else I'm delighted and relieved that it

was successful because of the heavy load

of responsibility that falls on any

commander who encourages his cracked

troops to venture into no man's land but

it was a responsibility I was glad to

take ET ET that old fake he didn't say

that a year ago good luck to him life

would be a lot D without the zi of this

world

[Music]

so oh
