oh martha she ran out in front of the

car i couldn't stop in time

all right are you asleep at the wheel

careful turn on those lights

[Applause]

all right just a minute paul

watch your neck

okay easy okay

um

[Music]

[Music]

looks like we're gonna have to operate

get me some canine flies i'm out of the

refrigerator and an iv too

[Applause]

oh you're gonna have to connect and hang

the tube up there

[Music]

don't set the needle right in the tube

here insert it

okay alcohol okay

okay

[Applause]

is there anything else

no that's fine thank you

i uh i've got some coffee that i have

made i'll get it for you

you've got more than a ruptured spleen

little mother

i don't think you're gonna make it

maybe your pups will have a chance

paul is there anything else i can do

good gordon on the phone

is the dog gonna make it i don't know

put it on the speaker

no no no answer it in the morning

okay thank you i'll check back with you

okay

hello i want you to go to the research

hospital together what is it

you're not sick are you no no no

get 20 micrograms of thyroxine 30

minutes hold it a minute

now tell me again 20 micrograms of

thyroxine

30 million units of penicillin and 10

units of canine blood

and hurry up be there as quick as i can

dad

so what's happening i don't know but he

called

first time since the accident really

excited about something yeah so was i

what are you doing it's called getting

dressed

first get back to bed before you both

catch cold oh

no nothing doing we have unfinished

business you know on the way home that

lookout point on mulholland drive would

be the perfect place

well i'm very adaptable as well as being

very sexy

being pregnant does that you know it

makes you sexier god gives me strength

don't give it a second thought darling

it is all taken care of

you see god is a liberated female and

she is on my side

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

[Music]

so

it's open

[Applause]

[Applause]

you mean these things are alive

two of them are now

they don't resemble their mother very

much

[Applause]

well you didn't exactly look like robert

redford at that stage either

they're alive

and that makes them beautiful

she's gonna live isn't she i don't know

she's holding her own

i did all that good you are a mess huh

why don't you go get cleaned up oh wow

yeah i uh i'll be back in a minute

thanks

is my future protege behaving himself oh

hardly

zorri is health starting to kick you

want to feel yeah

hey what does dr cannon say he says

you're going to be a perfectly healthy

grandfather

grandfather

[Applause]

good to see him working again you know

he hasn't been in a lab since mother

died

this is the first time that i have ever

been in the lab

it is unreal

hello nicole where in all this are you

my sister's still here paul with us

no she isn't

and i'm still guilty to make it easier

for you

no you still resent the fact that i

walked away without a scratch

nicole's gone and i'm still here

you can't accept that martha and neither

can i

so you say we agree it's simple as that

it looks like you lost another one

you two going home it's gonna be a long

night i'm sure you've got better things

to do

i want some golf next week good idea

i'll call and if you don't i will

little mother we must try something new

maybe your last buff will have a chance

after all

only one feet is left five weeks or so

developed

the mother is providing life support but

she can't live over 12 hours and the

fetus

has no chance of survival on its own so

in an attempt to speed its development

at 305 a.m i commenced intravenous

injection of placental lactogen

placental lactogen is a growth hormone

nicole

that is dr nicole holliston and i were

experimenting with

at the time of her death it will either

cause

rapid development of the fetus

due to accelerated growth of molecular

cell structures

or the patient will die within hours

placental lactogen consists of

polypeptide fragments

with a clear sea marker and has two

disulfide bridges

[Music]

hmm

yes

[Music]

give me a few more minutes my mother

just a few

[Music]

christ not yet uh

your eyes

so

like it or not you're getting one hell

of a chance at life

i hope you like it number one

because of prematurity and to alleviate

possible shock

i placed number one in an isolette at 10

40 am

the growth hormone is discontinued but

nourishment

is being fed intravenously

a sample specimen of cells seems to be

without defect

and the growth pattern normal

i've decided to recommence intravenous

feeding of placental lactogen

the growth hormone to study further

how the rapid growth progresses

1 40 am the 24th the puppy

is now six weeks or so developed but is

only two days

and 15 hours old

[Music]

when the growth hormone is administered

the accelerated growth is constant

when it's withdrawn growth pattern

immediately returns to normal

with no apparent harm to the cells

however

i've decided not to release the results

of this experiment

until i'm sure placental lactogen the

growth hormone

has no side effects

placental lactogen discontinued cell

activity

dropped again to normal number one has

attained growth

comparable to one year is still in life

tranquilized state

will attempt to stimulate the

consciousness by injection of nailing

heel sit

down stay

calm sit

i didn't think that dog stood a chance

are you going to keep her

yeah you it's a shame you weren't able

to save any of the pups

dave yes i'm i'm sorry too

but failure is what keeps us geniuses

from becoming too vague

come

forgot to tell her that dogs and

children always like me

she's obviously been well trained you

don't need me thanks for your help

oh i'm sorry number one i forgot the

time

go get your dinner

now put the dish away and go to bed

number one's ability to learn is

extraordinary

it may be an accidental side effect of

the drug

i have decided to attempt

under controlled conditions

a similar experiment for the human

embryo

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

stay i won't be long

[Music]

um

[Music]

[Music]

impossible difficult but not impossible

you'd be jeopardizing your career your

whole life the results could be worth it

nothing is worth going to jail for

that's debatable

nicole had three miscarriages before we

had gordon they were all genetically

perfect

but they died because they came into the

world too soon paul i understand

believing i do

and i know your dedication but it is

morally questionable to experiment with

a living being

a six months fetus is a living being

with a chance of survival outside of the

womb but 12 to 14 weeks has no hope

whatsoever

i'm not asking for anything that has a

chance for life on its own

an accident where the mother is dying is

what i need an abortion even listen to

me

twenty years work is beginning to take

shape

the children that nicole and i didn't

have will in their own way live

now help me jim please

maybe and only if it does not put me

or the hospital a vulnerable position

blood type a let me take a little while

i'll let you know i have a temporary

life support container in the car i'll

get it

betrays a certain quiet self-confidence

on your part

i knew you was a fervent doctor before

you became a fervent administrator

you're paul i've got an attempted

suicide down here he's not gonna make it

she's uh 14 15 weeks pregnant

and the right blood type

what's with the ambulance are you doing

an experiment

paul may i help you please call

i'd like to

well

the difference between the canine and

human circulatory tract and cell

structure

makes it difficult to say what effect

the growth hormone will have

on the human fetus chances for the

experiment to succeed

are minimal because of the immature

development of the fetus

it's my estimate that the fetus has a

chance of reaching the five-month

development stage before termination of

life

if enough is learned from this and other

experiments

it's possible that within a few years

placental nitrogen

can be used to save miscarried infants

and allow them to live

[Applause]

continuous life support began at 11 50

p.m

february 5th heartbeat and other vital

signs

normal

10 a.m february 6th fetus showed signs

of hypoxia

and made an adjustment and the oxygen

saturation is stabilized

2 15 pm february 7th growth pattern

approximately 30 to 1.

each 24-hour span appears to equal one

month's growth

in the mother's womb i'm amazed

february 8 6 45 pm

fetus size is now equivalent to an

eight-month

normal pregnancy

it's incredible

growth hormone discontinued and the baby

transferred to an isolette at 9 10 pm

february 9th her heartbeat is steady

lungs are expanded and cleared

this is the most significant advance in

fetal research

in the last 10 years

[Applause]

after running tests tomorrow i

i must decide the best way of breaking

the news to the medical association

and transferring the subject to the

clinic without implicating dr whiston

or his hospital i have

no delusions about the legal problems i

will have to face

[Applause]

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

hey

a terrifying thing is taking place

despite the

discontinuance of the growth hormone the

infant

is still developing at an accelerated

rate

february 13 1pm i'm

still unable to arrest the child's rapid

growth

the development rate is now

approximately one year

to each 24-hour period and seems to be

accelerating with each hour

february 16 2 p.m rapid growth

still uncontrolled rate now about

two years for every 24-hour period

i've worked for 25 years to save life

and now if the girl lives i've robbed

her of a part of her life

i can't even justify bringing others in

for consultation

it's my responsibility alone

february 21 3 40 a.m

there has been a marked change in the

cell activity over the past three hours

the rapid cell growth is easing off but

the existing cells

are now aging and dying at a terrifying

rate

my god will never end

the cell action changeover from growth

to aging

is significant preliminary tests

indicate

the rapid aging may be receptive to

certain combinations of

dna blocking agents 30cc of

anti-metabolite solution [ __ ] aging

for three hours

and then became ineffective

february 23rd 1 a.m i administered 50 cc

of 5 hydroxydopamine which would be

effective

if given in a massive dose however such

a massive dose

would cause heart arrests and death

within 24 hours

february 24 7 am administering 50cc

of methotrexate a risk because it's a

very strong drug

and highly addictive if methotrexate

doesn't arrest the rapid aging i have no

choice but to transfer the girl

to the research clinic i can't cope with

it any longer

it's been 19 hours since i administered

methotrexate

i think i found the antidote

accelerated aging has ceased with no

withdrawal symptoms

i am for the first time optimistic

why should number one in the girl react

differently to the placental oxygen

i've unchecked on both the main

difference seems to be that

puppy feed is dependent on its mother

circulatory system blood supply

the human fetus existed on an artificial

system

it's now been 36 hours since the

methotrexate injection

aging is still slowed too

aging is still slow to a normal level if

it's permanently stabilized and she's

normal at all respects i shall keep her

with me and prepare her as much as

possible for the outside world

and that'll be quite a task the

tranquilizers are discontinued

i will raise her to consciousness with a

series of nailing injections

i have no idea as to the outcome but

i've

i've done all i can also

i'll begin subconscious teaching at this

time 16

16 and 16 are 32

so

oh

[Music]

you won't understand what i'm about to

say but

through my own inadequacy you have

missed

the most wondrous part of your life

and that's called growing up

i shall do my best to make up to you

what's been lost

uh

victoria

yes victoria

do you remember any of the lessons

one and one are two

two and two are four

four and four are eight

awakened approximately 11 30.

she seems alert and upon preliminary

examination

functioning at a normal level heartbeat

is normal

martha you may as well stay with helen

till i get back okay

you take care of yourself oh and be sure

to call us from denver

uh uh yes i will i'll call you when i'm

coming back

you're gonna be so busy fixing up the

nursery from my grandson

you won't even miss me oh i just

remembered

the cutest little frog lamp in the head

it would be perfect for a little boy's

room

where do i get home

oh

so

gloria victoria

now we start learning to communicate

with the house to ourselves i'm trying

to explain the rudiments of life

it's easy to forget that the most simple

things things we take for granted are

totally unknown to her

she is incredibly perceptive her mind

like a sponge

open and ready to absorb everything yet

there's a plus factor in all of this

while most of us are capable of using

a fraction of our brain capacity she is

able to utilize hers

100 or damn close to it

there are no barriers no unconscious

blockages

perhaps because she missed the social

and environmental restrictions we had

imposed on us

when we grew up it's not an unpleasant

task

to teach such a willing people

continued tests indicate the aging is

progressing at a normal level

and there are no signs of addiction or

withdrawal from methotrexate

i'm terribly relieved this is a

microscope

her intelligence and comprehension are

overwhelming a combination of total

recall and the ability to utilize

information logically she is not

developing emotionally as rapidly as

mentally but

i assume this will come with time and

there are yourselves

and they're all normal

hello well paul where are you

are you being properly devilish no i'm

still in denver

tell martha to enjoy yourself take a

rest from the house till i get back

i may stop off in salt lake city

for a little while yes i'll let you know

what

oh no no i'm fine

love to gordon goodbye

what did you think of it

an interesting story but not very

logical

this bible is much more than just a

story it's an account of the way the

world actually began

from what i've learned that's impossible

you're not alone in thinking that way

but to many the moral values

are what's important more values yes the

in time

victoria i like my name why am i called

that because you were a victory

for both of us come outside there's a

whole world

for you to see

were there times when you were afraid i

wouldn't be a victory oh

from the beginning you see i never

really expected you to be born

and then your life took hold wouldn't

let go it moved at such

speed i didn't think i could stop it you

know there was a chance there where you

could have been born

lived and died of old age without ever

knowing it existed

couldn't you have gone for help if the

methotrexate hadn't worked i would have

but thank god it did why thank god

what would have been so bad about going

for help

how to put you into a clinic there you'd

have been a

strange happening an exhibit something

under glass to be

looked at examine experimented with

a freak a freak

i would have hated that i know

can it happen now no oh

one chance in a million but that's as

good as saying no your cells are normal

you're not supposed to eat that a flower

is supposed to be looked at and admired

like this

still we're gonna have to tell people

about you can't keep your secret much

longer

that's gonna be a problem for you

victoria i'm sorry for that

you see

you're unique

you may never happen again

and from what you tell me i may not have

happened at all

leave and died without ever being yes

perhaps if you'd been taken from the

womb and you were more developed

say six or seven months the growth

hormone wouldn't have reacted as it did

but that's something we'll never know

six months fetus has a chance for life

on its own to experiment and

fail at that stage would be murder and

that i will not do

but still you ought to tell her this

about me still i am to be the guinea pig

no i won't allow it to go that far

[Music]

where am i paul

who are my parents your mother

gave her name as ann smith she died

shortly after you were taken from her

and her real name i don't know

they were never able to trace her

my father your mother never would say

who knows about your experience about me

no one i really don't exist do i

i'm a non-person

february 23rd 1am i administered

50cc of 5 hydroxydopamine which would be

effective

if given in a massive dose however such

a massive dose

would cause heart arrests and death

within 24 hours

february 24 7 am administering 50cc of

methotrexate

a risk because it's a very strong drug

doesn't arrest the rapid aging i have no

accelerated aging has ceased with no

i am for the first time optimistic

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

oh

oh

[Music]

[Music]

um

[Applause]

[Music]

[Music]

no she called out her name i hid in the

lab but she didn't come in

good nobody

[Applause]

maybe okay go away somewhere

i should like to see some of the things

you've told me about before

before what you know when you have to

tell others about me

all right

we'll go this afternoon it's time you

experience being around other people

thank you i'll try not to embarrass you

thank you

do you think we'll ever go back i don't

know it wasn't two weeks enough

it was wonderful but too short i loved

every minute of it tell me how

the plaza the sharps the people the

marvelous old mission

it was all exciting and beautiful but

sometimes i felt i said the wrong things

or asked the wrong question once or

twice people stared at me and i

uh did i make a mistake paul no no you

didn't make any mistakes it's just

people don't see the beauty around them

sometimes they take it all for granted

your enthusiasm made them aware of what

they were missing

is that good very good

we'll pick up martha on the way home and

you can meet gordon and helen

we're almost there let's hear it

victoria spencer from denver colorado

parents deceased age 25 unmarried

studied where at the university of

colorado

the college of applied science in the

school of medicine was established by

territorial legislature in 1861

but the first cornerstone was not laid

until it hold it uh

just see where you went to school don't

give a dissertation

remember never volunteer now

how did we mean you were in need of a

research assistant

and i was recommended by a professor of

chemistry his name

dr william bickman good

now is not the time

[Music]

this is what is called making one's

debut isn't it

[Music]

we just arrived victoria i'd like you to

meet my daughter-in-law and my son

gordon helen this is victoria spencer my

new research assistant

delighted to meet you oh well let me

take your hat go ahead and get them some

drinks yeah

uh i think you've met mike seaman yes of

course my party

tori spencer mike seaman

a new assistant

[Music]

i think you're going to find working

with dr holliston very exciting

i'm sure

and we went to this fantastic restaurant

was i all right

just fine paul

i'm surprised you didn't call me when

you got home what are you talking about

i was at the house two weeks ago and

that dog of yours was there

oh yes i um i was in and out

in the one day i didn't find it

necessary to tell anyone

uh martha meet victoria spencer she'll

be working with me

victoria this is my sister-in-law martha

douglas

paul has spoken of you so many times

really well i'm afraid he hasn't

mentioned you

where are you staying miss spencer

she'll be staying at the house

of course i'll come home with you today

tell me when you're ready i'll get my

things oh no you don't

and you help me plan this collection and

i'm not gonna let you desert me in the

middle of it i'll take you home tomorrow

oh by the way george just came in and

he's looking for him

oh excuse me

where'd you study mr spencer at the

university of colorado colorado that's

my old alma mater

tell me is dr hanley still head of

chemical medicine there

i heard he was retiring he was a content

result bastard you know but

damn fine teacher i look forward even

more to working with dr holliston

i still have much to learn

[Applause]

[Music]

less and less

i uh i've been in a holding pattern over

you all day

much like them about it look while we're

mulling over all options

have some wine it's an italian vintage

probably made in uh algeria out of

bull's blood

rubbing alcohol if a man with your taste

and

intelligence enjoys it who am i to

refuse

sun shines on these dreary people as if

they were worth the floodlight

inspection

but for me as uh as oscar wilde being

said

give me deeper darkness money is not

made in the light

excuse me i believe it was mr george

bernard shaw

first our curtain of heartbreak house

[Music]

of course i was just testing you when

you passed

beauty plus intelligence very sensuous

[Music]

we're going to enjoy a rousingly good

hump

huh you refer to

a favorite slang word that the

elizabethans used for fornication

i've read much in the subject

you can talk to your computers like that

but not my guess huh

do you make computers no no i um i make

them work

i manage uh teletex international

systems uh

in my spare time when i'm not confusing

sure with wild

or revelation humor with bad taste i'm

surrounded

before i surrendered to all women

one of these days i'm going to remember

what a presumptuous son of a [ __ ] is

and not invite him around

he's only obsessed with a perfectly

normal urge or

victoria you are unique

and totally charming come on let me

introduce you to some nice people

well let's say nicer people

[Music]

good game no not really

why could he give you my queen and both

rooks instead of whipped chip

you may be right no that's not correct

it is feasible you could have given the

queen and one

but not the queen in both rooks

chess is one of the last bastions of

male chauvinism would you like to

challenge the champion

i've never played she has never played

and yet she tells me

i am wrong i've read the rules in the

book and chess

and a very interesting book by alicani

oh you know i had a friend once

never skied he read every book there was

first day out on the slopes

broke both his ankles this is much safer

you just sit down sweetheart i'll show

you the rules again

thank you the uh

this little doodad that is a pawn now he

can only move

one space at a time except on his first

one i know

shall we

well they use the pacifier but they

refuse to be humiliated by discussing it

they wouldn't go that far not even for

science

your victoria is something extraordinary

you should see what she's doing

to frank riley i love it i hope he

doesn't beat her too badly

dr brothers i read your column every day

it's wonderful

thank you thank you i'm nice excuse me

uh pardon me

do mindly

[Music]

if you don't keep quiet this game is off

[Music]

uh

quiet

check

check

she's amazing

[Applause]

uh

oh

i don't understand huh i don't

understand

unless you do oh yes you do you

understand damn well that is fan and man

versus stone

i knew it 15 months ago and i couldn't

focus on it

ah the match was played in paris on

december 6 1843

it's a classic game you led me into it

you played before you know every game

not every game

well you certainly know this game well

enough

you let me win you should have played

bishop

takes rooks porn i'd have had to resign

where have you played before i've never

played

i thought you read books

i've never played i've only read books

you'll let me win ah

should i be when nobody gets me with

jeffy

nobody

[Music]

he had him beaten you are a married man

i believe that

i believe that even if i had taken his

rook spawn

he could have replied with a move that

would have been a draw i love

victoria why did you wish me to lose

because you should have lost the chess

is only a game once one knows the

alternate possibilities of play

there's a logical progression to the

conclusion there are some things

you can't get out of books to understand

them

[Laughter]

what a wonderful thing to see his ego

will never recover

oh welcome to our little group we're

original but very loving you'll like us

i know i will

[Music]

so

[Music]

i want to learn

[Music]

to experience

[Music]

will you teach me

[Music]

so

[Music]

so

[Music]

wow

[Music]

put you into a clinic

an exhibit a freak

february 24 7 am administering 50cc of

methotrexate

a risk because it's a very strong drug

and highly addictive if methotrexate

doesn't arrest the rapid aging i have no

choice but to transfer the girl

to the research clinic

[Music]

[Music]

where is uh california's

answer to madame curie this morning

martha

you go through life as if you were

constantly sucking on a lemon

well then i'll have to learn to sip

nectar in the future

two impressive degrees and she's how old

25 brilliant obviously let's see

nicole was 30 before she got hers wasn't

she martha

this is your home you belong here and

now victoria

belongs here it's a whole new life for

all of us

why not become a part of it

[Applause]

the greatest revelation is stillness

say 12th century

i don't know one person in a thousand

would know the author of that

and i don't know anyone who's ever

quoted it

could be perfectly matched perhaps

do you mean just so you control this

entire operation yes i do

my computer's a better company than most

people i know they're uh they're

impersonal but

intellectually stimulated this is it

best in the states maybe the world

and here's the medical unit you asked

about

mayor asked a question you know how to

operate a computer

yes yes of course you uh read a book

about it

like chess yes i do

all right

now type out the pertinent background

data here and then the question

one

more

i doubt it

what do you mean it wasn't natural

causes dr holliston was your

sister-in-law subject to

extreme hypertension well she was tense

yes with nothing medically serious she

took sleeping pills from time to time

no reason for her to self-administer any

other drug in god's name get to the

point what killed her

we found a massive dose of what we think

is five hydroxy dopamine in our heart

muscle

now it's experimental we don't know too

much about it but the drug seems to have

an accumulative effect it doesn't

dissipate

causing cardiac arrest back to house in

just a minute

their force will be filled out this may

be a homicide
