1
00:00:01,001 --> 00:00:02,626
[eerie music]

2
00:00:11,011 --> 00:00:13,637
(male narrator)
You are about to enter
Another dimension

3
00:00:13,722 --> 00:00:16,640
A dimension not only of sight
And sound, but of mind

4
00:00:16,683 --> 00:00:19,476
A journey into a wondrous
Land of imagination.

5
00:00:19,519 --> 00:00:21,979
Next stop, the twilight zone.

6
00:00:25,859 --> 00:00:29,611
[organ grinder plays
East side, west side]

7
00:01:10,403 --> 00:01:11,403
[humming]

8
00:01:15,116 --> 00:01:17,409
(male narrator)
In the parlance
Of the 20th century,

9
00:01:17,494 --> 00:01:19,244
This is an oddball.

10
00:01:19,329 --> 00:01:21,455
His name is James b.W. Bevis

11
00:01:21,539 --> 00:01:24,541
And his tastes lean toward
Stuffed animals, zither music

12
00:01:24,626 --> 00:01:27,461
Professional football,
Charles Dickens, moose heads,

13
00:01:27,545 --> 00:01:30,255
Carnivals, dogs, children
And young ladies.

14
00:01:30,340 --> 00:01:33,217
Mr. Bevis is accident-prone,
A little vague,

15
00:01:33,301 --> 00:01:36,261
A little discombooberated,
With a life that possesses

16
00:01:36,346 --> 00:01:39,223
All the security
Of a floating crap game.

17
00:01:39,265 --> 00:01:42,226
But this can be said
Of our Mr. Bevis:

18
00:01:42,268 --> 00:01:45,395
Without him, without his
Warmth, without his kindness,

19
00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:48,816
The world would be
A considerably poorer place,

20
00:01:48,900 --> 00:01:51,485
Albeit perhaps
A little saner.

21
00:01:56,616 --> 00:01:58,033
[whistling]

22
00:02:00,537 --> 00:02:01,578
Hey.

23
00:02:01,663 --> 00:02:03,080
[ciicking teeth]

24
00:02:03,164 --> 00:02:05,249
[whistling]

25
00:02:05,291 --> 00:02:06,500
Hi, Michelle.

26
00:02:06,584 --> 00:02:08,001
Good morning,
Mr. Bevis.

27
00:02:13,258 --> 00:02:15,134
Why not, Mr. Bevis?

28
00:02:15,218 --> 00:02:16,468
Why not?

29
00:02:19,722 --> 00:02:20,806
Okay.

30
00:02:45,498 --> 00:02:46,874
Hey!

31
00:02:46,958 --> 00:02:48,333
Hey! Hey!

32
00:02:48,418 --> 00:02:50,919
[laughing]

33
00:02:51,004 --> 00:02:52,212
Hey, Tony.

34
00:02:52,297 --> 00:02:53,297
Lovely morning,
Ain't it?

35
00:02:53,381 --> 00:02:55,382
Thanks, Tony.

36
00:02:55,466 --> 00:02:58,051
(male narrator)
Should it not
Be obvious by now,

37
00:02:58,136 --> 00:03:00,137
James B.W. Bevis
Is a fixture

38
00:03:00,221 --> 00:03:01,763
In his own private,

39
00:03:01,848 --> 00:03:03,974
Optimistic, hopeful
Little world.

40
00:03:04,017 --> 00:03:06,935
A world which
Has long ceased
Being surprised by him.

41
00:03:15,153 --> 00:03:16,153
[whistles]

42
00:03:19,157 --> 00:03:20,657
Hey, come on!
Come on!

43
00:03:27,707 --> 00:03:30,083
[engine starting]

44
00:03:30,168 --> 00:03:32,085
[backfiring]

45
00:03:34,047 --> 00:03:36,048
James B.W. Bevis--

46
00:03:36,132 --> 00:03:39,092
On whom dame fortune
Will shortly turn
Her back

47
00:03:39,177 --> 00:03:42,512
But not before
She gives him a
Paste in the mouth.

48
00:03:42,597 --> 00:03:45,599
Mr. James B.W. Bevis,
Just one block away

49
00:03:45,683 --> 00:03:47,017
From the twilight zone.

50
00:04:18,591 --> 00:04:20,467
Will you please
Tell the gentleman

51
00:04:20,551 --> 00:04:23,553
Who occupies this--
This museum and
Livestock exhibit

52
00:04:23,596 --> 00:04:25,180
I should like
To see him

53
00:04:25,265 --> 00:04:27,641
When he finally deigns
To report for work.

54
00:04:27,725 --> 00:04:32,729
[ticking]

55
00:04:32,772 --> 00:04:35,399
[tsk, sighs]

56
00:04:45,076 --> 00:04:46,660
Hi, Earl. Hi, Dwayne.

57
00:04:46,744 --> 00:04:47,786
Hi, Maude.

58
00:04:47,870 --> 00:04:48,954
Morning.

59
00:04:49,038 --> 00:04:51,665
Hi, Margaret.

60
00:04:51,749 --> 00:04:53,125
Uh, Mr. Bevis

61
00:04:53,209 --> 00:04:55,752
Mr. Peckinpaugh
Wants to see you.

62
00:04:55,837 --> 00:04:56,920
Oh.

63
00:04:57,005 --> 00:04:58,088
Thanks.

64
00:05:07,181 --> 00:05:09,099
(Peckinpaugh)
I'll be
Brief, Bevis.

65
00:05:09,183 --> 00:05:11,059
You keep a ledger
Like an ape.

66
00:05:11,144 --> 00:05:13,687
Your desk is an affront
To any orderly symmetry.

67
00:05:13,771 --> 00:05:16,940
Your eccentricities are
Beyond any understanding.

68
00:05:16,983 --> 00:05:20,986
Your bringing zither music
To play during the afternoon.

69
00:05:21,070 --> 00:05:22,946
Your hiring
Christmas carolers

70
00:05:23,031 --> 00:05:25,615
To serenade the office
During our busiest hour--

71
00:05:45,053 --> 00:05:46,094
Thanks.

72
00:05:48,348 --> 00:05:51,141
The sack, Mr. Bevis?

73
00:05:51,184 --> 00:05:53,185
The sack.

74
00:05:53,269 --> 00:05:55,896
This is the sixth
Job I've lost this
Year, Margaret.

75
00:05:55,980 --> 00:06:00,650
Well, the best-laid
Plans of mice and
Men... And Bevis.

76
00:06:00,693 --> 00:06:03,153
I'll help
You pack,
Mr. Bevis.

77
00:06:06,574 --> 00:06:09,076
I was building this
For one of the kids.

78
00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:11,912
It's old ironsides--
The constitution.

79
00:06:11,996 --> 00:06:14,831
Well, she won't
Get launched today.

80
00:06:14,874 --> 00:06:17,084
Old ironsides
Will get launched.

81
00:06:17,168 --> 00:06:18,585
You'll get another job.

82
00:06:18,669 --> 00:06:20,545
You always have.

83
00:06:20,630 --> 00:06:22,672
The only job I've held
For more than six months

84
00:06:22,715 --> 00:06:25,675
Was during the second
World war when I was
In the navy.

85
00:06:25,718 --> 00:06:29,763
Here. This is me
Next to the Fantail.

86
00:06:29,847 --> 00:06:32,432
Oh, he's fat,
Isn't he?

87
00:06:32,517 --> 00:06:34,184
That's the
Bos'n's mate.

88
00:06:34,227 --> 00:06:35,685
This is the Fantail.

89
00:06:54,330 --> 00:06:57,124
[loud crashing]

90
00:06:57,208 --> 00:06:58,542
[tires screeching]

91
00:07:19,605 --> 00:07:22,983
Yours?

92
00:07:23,067 --> 00:07:25,444
Does it do
This often?

93
00:07:25,528 --> 00:07:27,654
Well, it never
Has before.

94
00:07:27,738 --> 00:07:30,407
It's always
Been kind of like
An old friend to me.

95
00:07:30,450 --> 00:07:34,244
Well, I'll phone
For the tow truck.

96
00:07:34,287 --> 00:07:38,999
Do that.

97
00:07:39,083 --> 00:07:41,334
Officer, you wouldn't
Be interested

98
00:07:41,419 --> 00:07:43,628
In purchasing
A Rickenbacker,
Would you?

99
00:07:43,713 --> 00:07:44,838
It's a late '24.

100
00:07:44,922 --> 00:07:46,673
No, thanks.

101
00:07:46,757 --> 00:07:49,092
I kinda got
My eye on a
'27 Maxwell.

102
00:07:49,177 --> 00:07:51,595
But I'm gonna
Wait until the new
Models come out

103
00:07:51,637 --> 00:07:53,638
Because that way
I can get a
Better deal.

104
00:08:01,606 --> 00:08:05,692
Officer, did you ever
Have one of those days?

105
00:08:05,776 --> 00:08:08,278
Not like this.

106
00:08:10,114 --> 00:08:11,198
(Bevis)
Hi, bud.

107
00:08:25,421 --> 00:08:27,714
Oh. Hello,
Mrs. Chetfield.

108
00:08:30,176 --> 00:08:31,510
That's right, Bevis.

109
00:08:31,594 --> 00:08:33,011
You're being evicted.

110
00:08:33,095 --> 00:08:34,888
Six weeks in arrears
On your rent

111
00:08:34,972 --> 00:08:37,516
And that's it, as far
As I'm concerned.

112
00:08:45,441 --> 00:08:47,651
(bartender)
You said you
Wanted something

113
00:08:47,735 --> 00:08:50,070
To fortify a man in the
Darkest hour of his life.

114
00:08:50,154 --> 00:08:51,446
Are them it?

115
00:08:51,531 --> 00:08:53,156
[slurring]
"Those" are it.

116
00:08:53,241 --> 00:08:55,492
You can't use "Them"
In the nominative case.

117
00:08:55,576 --> 00:08:56,660
Live and learn, huh?

118
00:08:56,744 --> 00:08:58,787
Yep, live and learn.

119
00:09:20,601 --> 00:09:22,018
Bartender!

120
00:09:22,061 --> 00:09:24,104
You all
Right, bud?

121
00:09:24,188 --> 00:09:25,772
Would you
Kindly tell me

122
00:09:25,856 --> 00:09:28,191
What are
The ingredients
Of this drink?

123
00:09:28,276 --> 00:09:30,527
You said you wanted
To get fortified, pal.

124
00:09:30,611 --> 00:09:33,196
I put
Everything in there
But atomic energy.

125
00:09:33,239 --> 00:09:36,074
Does that explain why
I can see him in
The mirror

126
00:09:36,158 --> 00:09:38,577
But I can't see him
In the booth?

127
00:09:42,248 --> 00:09:44,708
See who?

128
00:09:44,750 --> 00:09:47,335
"Whom." objective case.

129
00:09:47,420 --> 00:09:48,962
(man)
Quite right,
Mr. Bevis--

130
00:09:49,046 --> 00:09:51,548
Whom. Objective case.

131
00:10:05,229 --> 00:10:09,316
Well, Mr. Bevis,
We meet at last, eh?

132
00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:10,775
That's very nice.

133
00:10:10,860 --> 00:10:12,027
And who might you be?

134
00:10:12,111 --> 00:10:14,613
Whom. Objective case.

135
00:10:14,697 --> 00:10:16,239
The name,

136
00:10:16,324 --> 00:10:17,991
For purposes
Of identification,

137
00:10:18,075 --> 00:10:19,993
Is J. Hardy Hempstead.

138
00:10:20,077 --> 00:10:21,953
I'm your
Guardian angel.

139
00:10:38,596 --> 00:10:41,598
This is my friend,
Mr. J. Hardy Hempstead.

140
00:10:41,682 --> 00:10:43,433
See what he's having.

141
00:10:43,517 --> 00:10:45,185
Him?

142
00:10:48,773 --> 00:10:53,610
And a happy
Thanksgiving to you.

143
00:10:53,694 --> 00:10:56,363
Well, cheers,
Mr. Hempstead

144
00:10:56,447 --> 00:10:57,530
And to
Better days.

145
00:10:59,575 --> 00:11:00,909
Oh, aren't
You drinking?

146
00:11:10,002 --> 00:11:13,004
Now then, you were
Saying you were my--
What was it?

147
00:11:13,089 --> 00:11:15,507
Your guardian angel.

148
00:11:15,591 --> 00:11:17,300
Mr. Bevis,

149
00:11:17,385 --> 00:11:20,553
Here's the way
The cookie crumbles.

150
00:11:20,638 --> 00:11:22,013
Several hundred years ago

151
00:11:22,098 --> 00:11:23,515
One of your ancestors

152
00:11:23,599 --> 00:11:25,308
Performed an act
Of great courage.

153
00:11:25,393 --> 00:11:27,811
Part of his reward
Was to have a guardian angel

154
00:11:27,895 --> 00:11:30,063
Assigned to one
Of his descendants

155
00:11:30,147 --> 00:11:31,648
In each generation.

156
00:11:31,691 --> 00:11:34,734
Current subject:
James B.W. Bevis--

157
00:11:34,819 --> 00:11:36,611
That's you.

158
00:11:36,696 --> 00:11:38,530
Mr. Bevis,
In the past
Few generations

159
00:11:38,614 --> 00:11:40,865
I've handled
Some extremely
Solid citizens

160
00:11:40,950 --> 00:11:42,242
Among your progenitors.

161
00:11:42,326 --> 00:11:45,704
For instance,

162
00:11:45,788 --> 00:11:47,831
Magellan Bevis--

163
00:11:47,873 --> 00:11:50,834
An intrepid explorer
Of the 16th century.

164
00:11:50,918 --> 00:11:53,253
Parnell Bevis--

165
00:11:53,337 --> 00:11:55,338
A member of the
British parliament

166
00:11:55,423 --> 00:11:58,007
Who fought for home rule
Against insurmountable odds.

167
00:11:58,092 --> 00:12:01,386
And more recently,
Gunner Lou Bevis

168
00:12:01,470 --> 00:12:03,847
The first marine
To hit the beach
At Nicaragua.

169
00:12:03,889 --> 00:12:06,015
That's Uncle Louie!

170
00:12:08,310 --> 00:12:10,270
I tell you what,
Look, look

171
00:12:10,354 --> 00:12:14,482
Look, I'll close my
Eyes real tight and
You disappear

172
00:12:14,567 --> 00:12:17,026
And then go away and
Haunt somebody else.

173
00:12:17,111 --> 00:12:19,904
I am not a figment
Of your imagination.

174
00:12:19,989 --> 00:12:22,198
As of now, you are
Being watched over

175
00:12:22,283 --> 00:12:24,784
By the
Same guardian angel,
J. Hardy Hempstead,

176
00:12:24,869 --> 00:12:26,119
Your obedient servant.

177
00:12:26,203 --> 00:12:27,704
Watched over?

178
00:12:27,747 --> 00:12:29,414
Watched over--

179
00:12:29,498 --> 00:12:31,291
Assisted by
Minor miracles
From time to time

180
00:12:31,375 --> 00:12:32,876
Given small
Heavenly aids

181
00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:35,044
When the
Situation calls
For them.

182
00:12:43,804 --> 00:12:46,055
Getting it, Mr. Bevis?

183
00:12:46,098 --> 00:12:47,348
Watched over.

184
00:12:50,060 --> 00:12:51,478
Now today you had

185
00:12:51,562 --> 00:12:52,896
A very
Uncomfortable time.

186
00:12:52,980 --> 00:12:54,564
You were fired

187
00:12:54,648 --> 00:12:56,274
From what was
Your 11th job
In 18 months.

188
00:12:56,358 --> 00:12:59,277
Mr. Peckinpaugh didn't
Like zither music.

189
00:12:59,361 --> 00:13:00,987
I can't say
I blame him for that

190
00:13:01,071 --> 00:13:02,822
But that's
Neither here
Nor there.

191
00:13:02,907 --> 00:13:05,283
I can reconstitute
The whole day, Mr. Bevis,

192
00:13:05,367 --> 00:13:06,910
So that its final upshot

193
00:13:06,994 --> 00:13:09,162
Will be exactly opposite
To what it was.

194
00:13:09,246 --> 00:13:11,164
So let's go back
To this morning

195
00:13:11,248 --> 00:13:12,999
And start all
Over again, hm?

196
00:13:13,083 --> 00:13:15,668
You mean, I
Can have the day
To live over again

197
00:13:15,753 --> 00:13:17,754
And it won't be
The way it was?

198
00:13:17,797 --> 00:13:20,673
Definitely not.
We'd change some aspects.

199
00:13:20,758 --> 00:13:22,842
Inevitably, we'd
Have to change

200
00:13:22,927 --> 00:13:25,261
Certain characteristics
Of your own.

201
00:13:25,346 --> 00:13:28,973
Your clothes,
For instance,
Mr. Bevis.

202
00:13:31,227 --> 00:13:32,811
Are you serious?

203
00:13:36,148 --> 00:13:38,191
I look like
An undertaker!

204
00:13:38,275 --> 00:13:39,943
That may well be.

205
00:13:40,027 --> 00:13:41,736
But if you
Want the day
To end differently

206
00:13:41,821 --> 00:13:43,863
You're going
To have to be
Different yourself.

207
00:13:43,948 --> 00:13:45,657
Let's go.
There isn't
Much time.

208
00:13:45,741 --> 00:13:47,242
I want to thank you

209
00:13:47,326 --> 00:13:48,701
For taking this
Trouble with me

210
00:13:48,786 --> 00:13:50,662
Mr. Hempstead,
Whoever you are.

211
00:14:10,641 --> 00:14:16,187
[organ grinder plays
East side, west side]

212
00:14:16,272 --> 00:14:18,231
Hey!

213
00:14:18,315 --> 00:14:22,026
[dog barks
And growis]

214
00:14:23,654 --> 00:14:24,654
Hi, Michelle.

215
00:14:24,738 --> 00:14:25,655
Good morning.

216
00:14:35,291 --> 00:14:36,749
Uh-uh-uh.

217
00:14:36,834 --> 00:14:39,168
That nonsense is
For the old Bevis.

218
00:14:39,211 --> 00:14:40,879
You are the
New Bevis.

219
00:14:40,963 --> 00:14:44,007
[sighs]

220
00:14:48,345 --> 00:14:50,013
Coming, Mr. Hempstead?

221
00:14:50,097 --> 00:14:52,432
Oh, yes, yes.

222
00:14:52,516 --> 00:14:54,475
I'm coming, Mr. Bevis.

223
00:15:03,986 --> 00:15:05,320
Mrs. Chetfield--

224
00:15:05,404 --> 00:15:06,905
Good morning there,
Mr. Bevis.

225
00:15:06,989 --> 00:15:08,197
Look, about the rent--

226
00:15:08,240 --> 00:15:09,407
I found it
In the box.

227
00:15:09,491 --> 00:15:11,242
Three weeks
In advance.

228
00:15:11,327 --> 00:15:16,414
You're a wonderful,
Wonderful roomer,
Mr. Bevis.

229
00:15:16,498 --> 00:15:18,124
Okay there, boys!
Let's go!

230
00:15:18,208 --> 00:15:20,084
I'm ready, pass
It right over here.

231
00:15:20,169 --> 00:15:21,753
Yes, right there,
Right in there.

232
00:15:21,837 --> 00:15:22,921
Right there...

233
00:15:24,882 --> 00:15:27,592
Hey, Tony!
[laughs]

234
00:15:27,676 --> 00:15:29,302
How are you, Tony?

235
00:15:29,386 --> 00:15:31,429
Well, where's my apple?

236
00:15:31,513 --> 00:15:35,266
For free,
I give-a
Nobody nothing.

237
00:15:35,351 --> 00:15:36,726
Bananas!

238
00:15:36,769 --> 00:15:43,650
Bananas!

239
00:15:48,030 --> 00:15:49,656
What are you
Looking for?

240
00:15:49,740 --> 00:15:51,449
My car,
My Rickenbacker.

241
00:15:51,533 --> 00:15:53,826
Correction. You
Don't drive
A Rickenbacker.

242
00:15:53,911 --> 00:15:55,578
That's your car.

243
00:15:58,332 --> 00:16:00,583
That little thing?

244
00:16:00,626 --> 00:16:03,127
Well, gee, do
You think it fits?

245
00:16:03,212 --> 00:16:06,464
Mr. Bevis,
Live it up,
Will you?

246
00:16:06,548 --> 00:16:09,926
But have
You ever driven
A 1924 Rickenbacker?

247
00:16:09,969 --> 00:16:11,469
My dear Bevis,

248
00:16:11,553 --> 00:16:13,179
I've driven
A chariot
With 11 horses.

249
00:16:13,263 --> 00:16:15,598
I'm the guy responsible
For Ben Hur winning.

250
00:16:15,683 --> 00:16:18,434
And the old Rickenbacker
Went out with the
Old Bevis.

251
00:16:18,477 --> 00:16:20,103
You're a different
Person now!

252
00:16:20,145 --> 00:16:22,105
No more bowties.

253
00:16:22,147 --> 00:16:23,690
No more
Zither music.

254
00:16:23,774 --> 00:16:26,359
No more Christmas
Carolers in the office.

255
00:16:26,443 --> 00:16:28,695
Though the
Latter idiosyncrasy

256
00:16:28,779 --> 00:16:32,865
Met with some approval
From the organization.

257
00:16:32,950 --> 00:16:34,075
Shall we, Mr. Bevis?

258
00:16:48,298 --> 00:16:49,382
[tires screech]

259
00:16:49,466 --> 00:16:50,550
Sorry, pal.

260
00:16:50,634 --> 00:16:52,301
You'll get on to it.

261
00:17:10,320 --> 00:17:12,905
Look, somebody
Cleared off
My desk.

262
00:17:12,990 --> 00:17:14,323
Nothing of the kind.

263
00:17:14,408 --> 00:17:15,575
You'll see.

264
00:17:17,327 --> 00:17:19,203
'morning. 'morning.

265
00:17:19,288 --> 00:17:20,580
Maude.

266
00:17:20,664 --> 00:17:22,165
'morning. 'morning.

267
00:17:22,207 --> 00:17:23,416
Margaret?

268
00:17:23,500 --> 00:17:25,293
Good morning,
Mr. Bevis.

269
00:17:25,377 --> 00:17:28,755
What happened
To the clock I
Won at the carnival?

270
00:17:28,839 --> 00:17:31,090
Where's the ship
I was building?

271
00:17:31,175 --> 00:17:32,759
What ship?

272
00:17:32,843 --> 00:17:33,885
I don't know
What you're
Talking about.

273
00:17:33,969 --> 00:17:36,763
Ah!

274
00:17:36,847 --> 00:17:39,599
Good morning, Bevis.

275
00:17:39,683 --> 00:17:41,851
Associates--
Associates, one moment.

276
00:17:41,935 --> 00:17:44,520
I want you all to share
This bit of good news.

277
00:17:44,563 --> 00:17:47,774
As of this moment,
Mr. James B.W. Bevis

278
00:17:47,858 --> 00:17:50,026
Has been given
A raise in salary.

279
00:17:50,069 --> 00:17:53,029
$10 a week, starting
From this very moment.

280
00:17:53,072 --> 00:17:55,948
And I might add,
Your work has
Been admirable.

281
00:17:56,033 --> 00:17:57,867
Since you've
Been here
For 11 months

282
00:17:57,951 --> 00:17:59,786
I think it's time
You got a raise.

283
00:17:59,870 --> 00:18:01,704
A raise,
Mr. Peckinpaugh?

284
00:18:01,747 --> 00:18:03,998
Quite right, Bevis.
Quite right.

285
00:18:05,709 --> 00:18:07,376
Well, Mr. Peckinpaugh--

286
00:18:07,461 --> 00:18:09,170
Yes, Bevis?

287
00:18:09,254 --> 00:18:12,548
But Mr. Peckinpaugh, what
About the zither music?

288
00:18:12,633 --> 00:18:14,383
What about
The Christmas carols?

289
00:18:14,426 --> 00:18:16,719
I don't know
What you're
Talking about.

290
00:18:16,804 --> 00:18:19,472
Mr. Bevis,
You no longer
Have an interest

291
00:18:19,556 --> 00:18:21,557
In zither music
Or Christmas carolers

292
00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:23,226
Or any of
That nonsense.

293
00:18:23,268 --> 00:18:24,310
Oh.

294
00:18:24,394 --> 00:18:26,312
"Oh," what, Bevis?

295
00:18:26,396 --> 00:18:28,147
Nothing, nothing,
Mr. Peckinpaugh.

296
00:18:28,232 --> 00:18:29,607
Ah.

297
00:18:32,194 --> 00:18:33,820
It--it looks... Nude!

298
00:18:33,904 --> 00:18:36,405
It doesn't look decent.

299
00:18:36,490 --> 00:18:38,449
I'm going to go
Get a little air.

300
00:18:47,126 --> 00:18:48,918
I got a raise.

301
00:18:49,002 --> 00:18:51,504
Things are
Really looking up
For you, aren't they?

302
00:18:51,588 --> 00:18:54,507
Yeah, I guess
They are.

303
00:18:54,591 --> 00:18:56,342
Where are
You going?

304
00:18:56,426 --> 00:18:58,928
Oh, I'm going to go out
And get a little air.

305
00:18:58,971 --> 00:19:00,680
Or I may go
Over to my place

306
00:19:00,764 --> 00:19:03,432
And play football
With the kids in
The street.

307
00:19:03,517 --> 00:19:04,517
Mr. Bevis.

308
00:19:04,601 --> 00:19:05,852
Yeah?

309
00:19:05,936 --> 00:19:07,520
They won't
Play with you.

310
00:19:07,604 --> 00:19:09,647
Uh, not anymore.

311
00:19:12,025 --> 00:19:15,027
You're not
The same Bevis.

312
00:19:15,112 --> 00:19:16,988
I see.

313
00:19:22,661 --> 00:19:24,537
Bevis!

314
00:19:24,621 --> 00:19:26,664
What do you say
We level, hmm?

315
00:19:26,748 --> 00:19:30,209
Now, what is it
That you really want?

316
00:19:30,294 --> 00:19:32,128
You know,
For a fellow
Like you

317
00:19:32,212 --> 00:19:35,631
A $10 raise is the most
That even I can
Get for you.

318
00:19:35,674 --> 00:19:37,550
To use the
Vernacular, Bevis

319
00:19:37,634 --> 00:19:40,303
Frankly, I
Don't dig you.

320
00:19:40,345 --> 00:19:42,513
I'm used to Bevises
With big dreams

321
00:19:42,598 --> 00:19:45,224
Gigantic hopes,
Fantastic aspirations--

322
00:19:45,309 --> 00:19:48,477
Magellan Bevis,
Sailing around the horn;

323
00:19:48,520 --> 00:19:51,063
Parnell Bevis, standing
Alone in parliament

324
00:19:51,148 --> 00:19:53,024
Thundering out
His convictions ;

325
00:19:53,108 --> 00:19:56,152
Gunner Lou Bevis,
Semper fidelis.

326
00:19:56,236 --> 00:19:57,695
"Over the top, boys.

327
00:19:57,779 --> 00:19:59,322
"Nobody lives forever.

328
00:19:59,406 --> 00:20:00,865
Let's go!"

329
00:20:00,949 --> 00:20:03,034
Look, Mr. Hempstead,

330
00:20:03,118 --> 00:20:04,869
I don't like
To appear ungracious

331
00:20:04,953 --> 00:20:07,205
But, well,
The things
I like

332
00:20:07,289 --> 00:20:10,541
The things I believe in,
I know they're odd

333
00:20:10,626 --> 00:20:12,752
But they are worth
Considerably more

334
00:20:12,836 --> 00:20:16,505
Than $10 a week.

335
00:20:16,548 --> 00:20:20,593
So I'm to take it
That you prefer
The bowtie

336
00:20:20,677 --> 00:20:23,095
And old ironsides, hmm?

337
00:20:23,180 --> 00:20:25,389
I'm afraid that seems
To be the case.

338
00:20:25,474 --> 00:20:27,850
You realize it's going
To be the way it was--

339
00:20:27,935 --> 00:20:30,937
No job, no car,
No place to live?

340
00:20:31,021 --> 00:20:32,688
Well, it's been
That way before.

341
00:20:32,731 --> 00:20:35,024
[deep sigh]

342
00:20:35,108 --> 00:20:37,276
It's complicated,
Is it?

343
00:20:37,361 --> 00:20:40,279
Hardly.

344
00:20:48,372 --> 00:20:49,789
Take a good look.

345
00:20:49,873 --> 00:20:51,123
Won't be around
Very long.

346
00:20:51,208 --> 00:20:53,042
The cars will
Hook bumpers

347
00:20:53,126 --> 00:20:56,045
Just as it
Was ordained
They should.

348
00:21:09,518 --> 00:21:11,143
Better get it
Over with.

349
00:21:11,228 --> 00:21:12,853
Here comes Peckinpaugh.

350
00:21:12,938 --> 00:21:14,897
This time he won't be
Talking about a raise.

351
00:21:14,940 --> 00:21:16,774
It doesn't make a bit
Of difference.

352
00:21:16,858 --> 00:21:18,901
Not a bit of difference.

353
00:21:18,986 --> 00:21:21,237
(Peckinpaugh)
Would you kindly
Tell the gentleman

354
00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:23,739
Who occupies this museum
And livestock exhibit

355
00:21:23,824 --> 00:21:25,700
That I should like
To see him

356
00:21:25,784 --> 00:21:27,576
When he finally
Deigns to report
To work.

357
00:21:35,127 --> 00:21:36,794
Hi, Harry. Hi, Gwen.

358
00:21:36,878 --> 00:21:39,005
Hi, Maude. Harriet.

359
00:21:39,089 --> 00:21:41,799
Hi, Margaret.

360
00:21:41,883 --> 00:21:46,095
Mr. Bevis,
Mr. Peckinpaugh
Wants to see you.

361
00:21:46,179 --> 00:21:48,014
Oh.
Thanks.

362
00:21:54,396 --> 00:21:56,355
You feel fortified
Now, pal?

363
00:21:56,440 --> 00:21:57,857
I certainly do.

364
00:21:57,941 --> 00:22:00,192
You know, I lost
My job today.

365
00:22:00,277 --> 00:22:01,527
And my car,

366
00:22:01,611 --> 00:22:03,696
And I was evicted.

367
00:22:03,780 --> 00:22:05,364
But you know what?

368
00:22:05,449 --> 00:22:09,201
I love zither music
And model shipbuilding

369
00:22:09,286 --> 00:22:10,995
And if you can't bring kids

370
00:22:11,079 --> 00:22:12,788
Into an office at Christmastime

371
00:22:12,873 --> 00:22:14,332
To sing carols

372
00:22:14,416 --> 00:22:16,042
Then what's the point
Of being alive?

373
00:22:16,126 --> 00:22:18,044
Beats me.

374
00:22:18,128 --> 00:22:19,670
Well, there is
No point.

375
00:22:19,755 --> 00:22:21,672
[shouts]
No point at all!

376
00:22:21,757 --> 00:22:23,299
Now, I'm gonna go out

377
00:22:23,383 --> 00:22:25,968
And try to find myself
Another job,

378
00:22:26,053 --> 00:22:28,054
And I'm gonna find myself
An apartment,

379
00:22:28,138 --> 00:22:30,556
And then I'm gonna start
Finishing old ironsides

380
00:22:30,640 --> 00:22:33,142
For a little kid,
Eight years old,
With a dirty face

381
00:22:33,226 --> 00:22:35,227
Who happens to love
Model shipbuilding

382
00:22:35,312 --> 00:22:36,479
Just the same as I do.

383
00:22:36,521 --> 00:22:38,773
$5.00, pal.

384
00:22:53,997 --> 00:22:57,416
Still with me, huh,
Mr. Hempstead?

385
00:23:03,340 --> 00:23:05,007
Officer, officer,um...

386
00:23:05,050 --> 00:23:06,592
Your car, mister?

387
00:23:06,676 --> 00:23:08,386
Well, I-I-I...

388
00:23:08,470 --> 00:23:10,679
We take a dim view
Of parking

389
00:23:10,764 --> 00:23:12,014
In front
Of a hydrant.

390
00:23:28,407 --> 00:23:30,324
Still with me, huh,
Mr. Hempstead?

391
00:23:30,409 --> 00:23:32,535
(hempstead)
Still with you,
Mr. Bevis.

392
00:23:32,619 --> 00:23:33,786
Still with you.

393
00:23:36,623 --> 00:23:38,124
[backfires]

394
00:23:46,716 --> 00:23:49,260
(male narrator)
Mr. James B.W. Bevis,

395
00:23:49,344 --> 00:23:52,096
Who believes in a magic
All his own

396
00:23:52,180 --> 00:23:55,057
The magic of a child's smile.

397
00:23:55,100 --> 00:23:57,893
The magic of liking
And being liked.

398
00:23:57,936 --> 00:24:00,062
The strange
And wondrous mysticism

399
00:24:00,147 --> 00:24:02,064
That is a simple act
Of living.

400
00:24:02,149 --> 00:24:06,652
Mr. James B.W. Bevis,
Specie of 20th century male,

401
00:24:06,736 --> 00:24:10,865
Who has his own private
And special twilight zone.

402
00:24:15,745 --> 00:24:18,456
(male presenter)
Rod Serling, the
Creator of twilight zone,

403
00:24:18,540 --> 00:24:20,416
Will tell you about
Next week's story

404
00:24:20,500 --> 00:24:22,751
After this word from
Our alternate sponsor.

405
00:24:24,421 --> 00:24:26,005
And now,
Mr. Serling.

406
00:24:26,089 --> 00:24:28,007
Next week,
You'll see our
Friends here,

407
00:24:28,091 --> 00:24:30,301
Along with Anne Francis
And Elizabeth Allen

408
00:24:30,385 --> 00:24:32,011
In one of the
Strangest stories

409
00:24:32,095 --> 00:24:34,138
We've yet presented
On the twilight zone.

410
00:24:34,222 --> 00:24:35,764
It's called
"The After Hours"

411
00:24:35,807 --> 00:24:37,391
And concerns
The shadowy time

412
00:24:37,476 --> 00:24:39,477
When normal people
Go back to their homes

413
00:24:39,561 --> 00:24:41,437
And concurrently,
What happens to those

414
00:24:41,480 --> 00:24:43,105
Who are perhaps
Not quite so normal

415
00:24:43,148 --> 00:24:44,690
Or perhaps
Not quite so human.

416
00:24:44,774 --> 00:24:46,942
Intriguing? I think
You'll find it so,

417
00:24:46,985 --> 00:24:49,153
Next week,
On the twilight zone.

418
00:24:51,781 --> 00:24:53,199
[eerie music]

419
00:25:31,571 --> 00:25:34,073
(male presenter, off)
Kimberly Clark invites you

420
00:25:34,157 --> 00:25:35,699
To watch
Steve McQueen

421
00:25:35,784 --> 00:25:37,910
In "Wanted Dead or Alive."

422
00:25:37,994 --> 00:25:41,121
Saturday nights over
Most of these
Same stations.
