00:00:26,220 --> 00:00:27,360
Good evening.

2
00:00:28,960 --> 00:00:33,400
Most of you have
doubtless read how
Anne Boleyn lost her head.

3
00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:38,270
King Henry VIII,
no longer fascinated, said,

4
00:00:38,970 --> 00:00:40,570
"Let her be decapitated."

5
00:00:41,900 --> 00:00:44,870
Thereupon the legend goes

6
00:00:44,910 --> 00:00:49,340
her ghost roamed about
each night with utmost
dignity and charm,

7
00:00:50,610 --> 00:00:54,420
with her head tucked
underneath her arm.

8
00:00:56,950 --> 00:01:00,360
Now with two heads
it occurs to me

9
00:01:00,390 --> 00:01:02,590
I can think more clearly
than with three.

10
00:01:02,620 --> 00:01:05,730
However,
if the worst should come,

11
00:01:06,830 --> 00:01:08,900
one head's a basic minimum.

12
00:01:08,930 --> 00:01:11,300
Therefore, in my work,

13
00:01:11,330 --> 00:01:14,240
I hardly dare to roam about
without one spare.

first thing in the morning.

157
00:22:28,580 --> 00:22:30,780
Now, that's pretty dangerous.
You better have it fixed now.

158
00:22:30,810 --> 00:22:31,650
Follow me.

159
00:22:38,950 --> 00:22:40,090
(MOTORCYCLE ENGINE REVVING)

160
00:23:10,950 --> 00:23:13,490
One less mile to go.

161
00:23:13,520 --> 00:23:17,160
Next week another script,
another show.

162
00:23:17,190 --> 00:23:20,430
When electrons glide
across your screen,

163
00:23:20,460 --> 00:23:23,800
bringing some new
and unforeseen
brand of murder.

164
00:23:23,830 --> 00:23:26,500
I mean the quiet kind,

165
00:23:26,530 --> 00:23:28,840
perpetrated solely
in our mind.

166
00:23:28,870 --> 00:23:30,810
A gentle thump.

167
00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:33,070
A soothing splash.

168
00:23:33,070 --> 00:23:35,710
No bullet, shriek
or livid gash.

169
00:23:35,740 --> 00:23:38,250
No stains, no fumes,
no ugly splatter.

170
00:23:39,310 --> 00:23:42,220
We use only the purest
subject matter.

171
00:23:43,320 --> 00:23:44,420
Good night.
