[theme music plays]

[car engine starts up]

Soda, Mr. Gregory?

[northern accent]
No, I’ll take it as it is.

Call me Jack.

I’m so sorry my husband isn't
here to welcome you.

He shouldn't keep you waiting.

Time is money,
isn't that what you say?

He can keep me waiting all night
if you're going to entertain me.

- Cheers.
- All the best.

I don't think I could explain
the electro-encephaloscope.

Wouldn't help me if you could.

All I’m interested in is
the marketing potential.

Of course, it could be used

on a mass scale in the
treatment of mental sickness.

Could look for
criminal characteristics,

in prison populations and so on.

Allen has a collection
of brain charts already,

taken from student volunteers
at the Institute.

Does he do them in batches?

A recorder can handle several
subjects at the same time.

Allen has two outlets

fitted to the prototype
in the laboratory.

You know your stuff,
don't you? Is it safe?

Well, there was an accident,
just over a month ago.

Fortunately,

the two students were unharmed.

And Allen was able to
reverse the effect.

ln fact, the students never
realised what had happened.

Hot in here, isn't it?

It suggested a use
for the machine

which Allen himself
had never dreamed of.

What did happen then?

[echoing]
You'll find out, Mr. Gregory.

We shall demonstrate it
for you, tonight.

Allen.

[honking]

- Good evening. - Good evening,
madam. Good evening, sir.

[lock clicking]

[Ann]
I’m so sorry to disturb you.

I’m afraid we're working late
again tonight.

We're going to want some
peace and quiet.

- Good night.
- Good night.

The drug's almost worn off.

Once the cycle starts

he'll be unconscious anyway,
until it's over.

You both will.

Don't touch that!

I set the controls
this afternoon.

I’m only checking.
Have you set the transfer?

No. I left that in case
anyone should come

poking their nose in.

I’ll do it now.

I’ve marked the reverse switch

in case you should notice
anything amiss.

- Still afraid, Allen?
- Of course I am.

If you back out now...

- Is my injection ready?
- Yes.

[equipment rattling]

Are you sure it's strong enough?

It should last just over
three hours.

Ready?

The controls--

The controls are set
on automatic.

Once you switch on, the cycle
will complete itself in 30 minutes.

- I know.
- Yes.

[trolley rattling]

All right.

[machine humming]

Allen?

Allen, can you hear me?

Can you speak?

Try harder, remember his muscle
co-ordination is different.

Are you my husband,
Allen Meredith?

Am I? Am I?

Try walking.

You've got to learn to
co-ordinate his body. Come on.

Yes, yes.
[clears throat]

Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday.

[engine revs]

Now you say the drug
you gave my body,

will keep it out for about
another couple of hours.

Yes.

Fantastic to be able to look
at one's own body!

It'll be ready for him
when he wakes up.

It’s going to be a hell
of a shock.

- I know. - I’ll make a note
of all the symptoms--

Allen, there isn't time.

No, of course not.

I’ll just have my keys.

Incredible,

Poor devil.

Don't start feeling sorry
for him.

- His office again, repeat it.
- Fifth Floor, Greenway House.

Secretary, Miss Pinner.
Addresses her as Joan.

Partner, George Simpson.
Calls him George.

- Home background?
- 24, Liverton Road.

Chauffeur, Rawlinson.
Wife, Elizabeth. Butler...

Oh, we still haven't got
the name of the butler!

There are bound to be
some facts missing.

There's your checklist.

If you get stuck, you'll just
have to play it by ear.

They may think
you're behaving oddly,

but no one could suspect
the truth.

Now, come on,
try his signature again.

- That's good! That's very good.
- Yes, it is, isn't it?

It seems to be easier
with his own hand.

- Where is my notebook?
- Not now. There isn't time.

You must get his voice right.

Listen again!

[Ann over tape recorder]
What do you say?

[Mr. Gregory]
He can keep me waiting all night

if you're going
to entertain me.

Go on.

He can--

[imitating Gregory's accent]
He can keep me waiting all night

if you're going to entertain me.

Yes. That's better too,
using his vocal chords.

Yes, of course, the whole
character of the body--

Try again!
[car approaching]

It’s the car.
It’s back already.

Now, what do you say to him?

I say, “All right, Rawlinson.
You can drive me home--”

- The accent!
- Right, right, right.

All right, Rawlinson,
You can drive me home now.

I’m not feeling too well.

Try not to be so nervous.
You'll get it wrong.

I’ll try again
[doorbell rings]

There isn't time.

Don't say very much,
and keep calm!

[front door opens]

Hello, Elizabeth.
I hope I haven't kept you up?

God, I hope that's right.

[incoherent chatter]

All right, Rawlinson.
You can drive me home now.

Alright Rawlinson!
You can drive me home now.

- Home, sir?
- I’m not feeling very well.

Oh, sir.
Don't forget your coat, sir.

I’m so sorry, Mr. Gregory.

Nothing serious I hope, sir?

No, no.
I’ll be all right.

I do hope you'll be all right,
Mr. Gregory.

Yes, Mrs. Meredith,
I’ll be all right. Thank you.

[engine starts up]

Thank you, Rawlinson.
I feel better now.

Will that be all
for this evening, sir?

Yes, that'll be all.

- Good night, sir.
- Good night.

- Good evening, sir.
- Ah. Hello.

I’m a feeling a bit peckish.

Something to eat.
Could you manage?

Some steamed fish, sir?

Haven't you got a steak,
some vegetables,

something like that?

If you wish it, sir.

- Soon as you can then, please?
- Yes, sir.

- Jack!
- Hello, Elizabeth.

I hope I haven't kept you up.

Good evening, Mr. Gregory.
I was passing and I...

I was just going actually,

- Good night, Mrs. Gregory.
- Must you go?

- I was enjoying our chat.
- I’m sorry, I have to.

Good night.

Well ! However did you know
he was here?

l--I didn't.

Oh? You came home
to spend a night with me?

How very sweet of you, Jack.

Have you quarrelled with...
Sheila?

Or is it someone else
by this time?

Well? Aren't you going to
tell me what you think of me?

Oh, come now!
It was my fault, you know.

I asked him here. I admit it.

So why not start with “bitch”,
and carry on from there?

I don't want to say anything
about it,

what you do is your own affair.

- It’s not my business.
- Oh, how very civilised!

Have you started
a new approach to living,

or is it just another way
of being cruel?

- I don't want to talk about it!
- Oh, very clever!

Unusually subtle for you,
but clever.

Indifference is so much more
effective

than threats and shouts.

Much more effective.

Look, er...
Please don't cry.

[sobbing]
Perhaps you're saving it up for him?

I suppose you won't believe
he only came because

I practically begged him.

Poor Tony.

I propose to forget whatever
has happened here tonight.

All I want to do is have
some food, then go to bed.

Can't you just leave it at that?

Do you know,
I wanted you to come back.

I didn't think
for a moment you would,

but deep down inside me,

I wanted you to find me
with someone.

Just so that you'd be angry.

At least you'd be reminded
I was here,

and that would be better
than nothing.

But you've seen through me.

You know exactly how
to hurt most.

I’m not trying to hurt anyone!

All-- All I...

Oh God, where's that food?

[panting]

[screams]
Hey!

[groaning]

I suggest you sit down, sir.

What is it?

Mr. Gregory has just had
a large steak,

with vegetables followed
by fruit and cream, madam.

Have you gone mad?

Eating a meal like that
with your ulcer?

I took the precaution, ma'am,

Thank you.
Here drink this.

Please see Mr. Gregory
to his room.

Yes, ma'am.

- Good night, Harvey.
- Good night, ma'am.

Come along, sir.

Be quiet!
[[screaming, grunting]

Lie still and be quiet.

Now you know
what that machine can do.

You are now inside my husband's
body and he is in yours.

The process can be reversed.

You'll be changed back again
in a few days,

if you behave yourself.

If you try to escape
or injure yourself in any way,

it may be impossible.

If you draw attention
to yourself,

I shall say my husband has gone
mad, thinking he's another man.

They'll diagnose
acute schizophrenia.

We none of us want that, do we?

Are you hungry?

I shall feed you
and take care of you.

No need to be afraid,
or embarrassed.

I’m a trained nurse.

But, why?

For the benefit of science.

- Good morning, Harvey.
- Good morning, sir.

- Oh, thank you.
- Sir?

[phone rings]

- Excuse me, sir.
- Yes, all right.

Mr. Gregory's residence.

Good morning, Mrs. Meredith here
may I speak with--

- Meredith?
- Yes.

Oh, one moment, please.

Mrs. Meredith for you, sir.

Thank you, Harvey.

- Gregory here.
- Good morning.

You asked me to let you know
how my husband is after that

nasty turn he had last night.

Ah, yes. that's right.
How is he?

Still quite shocked.

But he's quite recovered
physically.

His pulse is a bit fast,
but his temperature's normal.

There's no need to worry
about him.

All right well take a note
of all the symptoms--

How are you, Mr. Gregory?

Oh, I’m fine, thank you.
Just on my way to the office.

I hope to... see you again,
quite soon.

I’m looking forward to that.
Good morning.

Goodbye.

Jack!

About Tony...

- Look, I told you--
- It wasn't his fault, really,

Please don't use it against him.

I’m not using anything
against anyone.

Will you please stop worrying
about it?

Goodbye.

- Thank you, Rawlinson.
- Yes, sir.

- Good morning.
- Good morning.

Good morning.

- Good morning, Joan.
- Jack!

- Morning, Jack.
- Good morning.

- I managed it.
- Oh. Did you? Good, I’m glad.

[coughs lightly]

[clears throat]

Oh, it's my throat.
[clears throat]

Mr. Smith phoned.
No initial or anything.

Just said you'd know.
Wants an answer by mid-day.

I had to remind you
about Mr. Bloom.

And there's nothing from
Sutton Brothers, yet.

I could get onto them
if you like?

Usual line presumably?

Very well. You're seeing
Mr. Robinson at 10:30,

and the board meeting's fixed
for 11 :00.

- Well, cancel it. Both of them.
- What?

Cancel all my appointments,
for the next couple of days.

Something important
has turned up.

- More important than--
- You heard what I said!

Perhaps you'll sign this report?

No, not just now.

I was here until 9:30
last night, typing that,

- because you said--
- No matter what I said,

things have changed!
Do you understand?

Yes! They have, haven't they?

Yes, well it's nothing to do
with you... a personal matter.

- Morning, Jack.
- Hello, George.

- How did you get on last night?
- Last night?

I thought you were going
to see that man, Meredith.

Oh, yes, yes, of course.

He's got a brilliant idea,
it's better than ever.

Good!

So now I suppose
you'll con it out of him

for next to nothing, as usual.

Still, I suppose it helps
pay the tax man.

I don't think we're going to be
able to trick him out of this one.

- Oh? That wife of his?
- What?

His wife, is she taking a hand
in the bargaining?

No, no, it's just that,

I think we ought to treat him
more generously from now on.

For our benefit, of course.

What? Oh, God!

Now about the Weybridge Project.

I’d like a word
before the board meeting--

I’m sorry, I can't talk to you
this morning, I’m too busy.

I beg your pardon?
[telephone rings]

Mr. Gregory's office.
Oh, yes! One moment, please.

- Mr. Bloom.
- Bloom!

What are you going
to say to him?

Nothing! I haven't decided.
Tell him I'm not here.

Don't be absurd!
You've got to say something.

What's the matter with you?

Bloom? Gregory here.
The answer is no!

That's all I have to say.
Good morning!

[hangs up phone]

Have you gone mad?
You must be mad!

I’ll talk to him myself.

Though what I’m going to say
after that I can't imagine.

I shall want an explanation,
Gregory,

and it had better be a good one!

I want to see the accountant.

Which one?

Er, Randall! as soon as you can,
please.

And will you keep everybody
else out.

- What shall I say when--
- Don't say anything.

Just keep them out.

You must eat.

Why not?

You can talk to me, can't you?

Very well,
we'll try again, later.

Wait a minute, come here!

Un-tie these things, will you?

I’m sorry, I don't trust you.

Why are you doing this to me?
What have I done to you?

If you must know, you've
exploited my husband shamefully.

You've never paid him
more than a pittance,

and made a fortune
out of his ideas.

This time it's going
to be different.

Now, look--

[knocking]

Good morning, Mr. Gregory.

Oh! It's you!

Before you say anything,
I’ve made out my resignation.

Here it is.

I don't want your resignation.
You can take it back.

Forget about last night.
It wasn't all your fault.

You can go now.

Will you remind my secretary

I’m still waiting to see
Mr. Randall, please?

Well,

Is there some other Randall?

Your secretary thought you
meant me.

Naturally, I assumed it was
about last night.

Yes, of course.
I’m sorry, Randall, I’ve...

I was thinking of
something else.

I do want to see you, it's...

It’s not about last night.
Sit down, will you. Please.

It’s about an investment
on behalf of the company.

It’s a new invention,
I want £100,000,

paid to Dr. A. W, Meredith.

£100,000?

Yes, paid into his account,
as soon as possible.

You mean, you want to put a
proposition to the Board?

I didn't say that. did I?

But, sir,
an investment that size!

The Board must approve the project,
and the terms of the contract.

There isn't a contract.
It’s a gentleman's agreement.

A gentleman's...
What about the Board?

Never mind about the Board!

I’m sorry, sir, Perhaps you'll
have a word with Mr. Simpson.

Randall.

I could change my mind
about that resignation you know!

All right, you can resign,

but where are you going
to get another job?

You were very indiscreet
last night.

Suppose that got around?

You've got your career
to think about.

I assumed that when I decided
to forget last night,

I would have your co-operation.

I see.
I should have known better.

I thought for a moment
that you were being generous.

So now you can think again.
Can't you? Well?

You have personal authority
to increase existing loans,

up to 20 percent.

If I select half a dozen
of the larger investments,

and attach Dr. Meredith's name
to each of the projects--

Yes, that's good!
Sounds very good.

However, when the accounts come
before the Board for review--

We'll let the Board take care
of itself.

How long will this take
to arrange?

The papers will have
to be prepared.

This afternoon?
I don't mean to be difficult.

There are things
you wouldn't understand.

Get on with it, will you.

[whirring, buzzing]

What is it you want? Money?

I’ll find out sooner or later,
won't I?

This is the greatest discovery
Allen has made,

or is ever likely to.

He needs money
for proper research.

More than the Institute
can find,

or you're ever likely
to pay him,

unless you're forced to.

So he's using my body
to steal it, is that it?

Taking what is due to you
isn't stealing.

- Oh, bloomin' heck!
- What is it?

- Smith.
- Smith?

Another man who wants money.
Today.

Wonder how your lad will cope
with that one.

I’ll tell you,
I wasn't looking forward to it.

Shall I phone him?
Warn him?

[yelping]

What is it?
What's the matter?

Cramp! ln our leg.

There. Is that better?

Ooh.
It’s getting better.

[groans]

If that happens,
when you're not here,

I’ll be in agony!

Please un-tie it.

I give you my word of honour!
I won't run away.

I’ll behave myself.
For pity's sake,

will you please un-tie it?

It’s that Mr. Smith again.

I haven't time for that.
I’m going out to lunch.

- I’ll be back--
- Gregory!

- I’m just going out to lunch.
- The Board are furious!

Not only do you fail to attend,

they haven't even got
your report!

[Joan]
It has been typed.

yes, but I haven't time to attend
to it now. [phone rings]

Just give me a couple of days,

I’ll be able to explain
everything.

My God, you'll have
a lot of explaining to do.

I warn you,
if there's much more of this,

you won't have me
to carry the can for you.

- And I mean it!
- Mr. Gregory's in danger?

- What was that?
- It’s a woman.

She's rung three times already.

- She says--
- I’ll take it in the office!

Hello, Mr. Gregory's just
come in he can speak to you now.

- Hello Ann, what's the matter?
- Ann? Who the hell is Ann?

- This is Sheila.
- Sheila?

What are you trying on
with Smith?

Smith?

He says he's been trying to
get you all morning.

He thinks you're trying to
wriggle out of paying.

- Paying?
- He says you won't speak to him

on the phone.

He says he gave you until 12:00
and you didn't ring back,

You don't mess about
with a man like Smith.

- Not if you' have any sense.
- Well, what does he want?

What do you think he wants?
His ten percent, of course!

Listen, darling, do you want him
round there to collect?

Chatting up your partner?

Carving his initials
on your secretary?

All right then, why should I care?
It’s your look-out.

Only, stay away from here.

I don't want blood
all over my carpet.

Hello? Sheila?

But how much does he want?
Hello?

Give me those damn glasses.

Your husband may fancy
a broken leg, I don't.

Ah, that's better.
I can see now.

You stay here.
I’ll go get some lunch.

Yes, all right,
just a minute.

What are you doing?
Put me down!

Gregory!

Gregory!

Gave you a nasty fright,
didn't I?

[groaning]

- You all right, sir?
- Oh, yes, I’m all right.

You sure?
You don't look--

I’m all right. Yes, just had
an attack, that's all.

Drive me to Sheila's,
will you?

Very good, sir.

- What are you after?
- That's great.

Neither of you smoke, and he's
run off with my cigarettes.

You gave me your word.
I trusted you.

Got a light?

Last night you gave me a whisky.
I trusted you.

Sherry.

[coughs]

I’ll have him smoking
by the time he gets back.

Fancy, falling for the oldest
trick in the book. At my age.

Flattery.

I wouldn't have come otherwise,
and you know that.

I really thought you fancied me.

Oh!

Why not?
I’m more your type than he is.

What do you mean by that?

It was all your idea, wasn't it?

Why do you think his
contracts were so poor?

Because he was soft enough
to sign them!

I told him that.

I bet you told him a
lot of things.

How did you
persuade him into this?

“All for the good of science”,
is that what you said?

- It is for the good of science.
- Science, eh?

Is that all you want out
of this?

Don't you judge everyone
by your own mercenary motives.

Allen is a brilliant man.

He's got more brains
than you'll ever have.

And he loves me very much.

I’ve no doubt.
Do you love him?

I admire him.

I refuse to talk about it.

Better get on with the cooking
then, I’m hungry.

- Say, has he got an ulcer?
- No.

Oh, that's great! If I get
nothing else out of this,

at least I'll have a good feed.

Shall I wait, sir?

Yes, but help me
up to the flat first, will you?

- I’m still not feeling well.
- Very well, sir.

[doorbell rings]

What's this?
Lost your key?

Thank you, Rawlinson.

I told you to keep away!

Are you all right?

What did they do to you?

You're a good cook.

Haven't enjoyed a meal
like that in years.

Something to be said
for swapping bodies.

Attractive woman.

Let yourself relax a bit.
Lucky man, your husband.

Why did you marry him?

It’s none of your business.

Nurse turns laboratory
assistant.

Falls in love
with brilliant young scientist.

He talked about it once.

So, you dote on him,

he dotes on his work,
and you get fed up.

I refuse to talk about it.

How much longer
have we got to wait eh?

Well, the least you can do is
entertain me.

Why should I?

I could make things
very awkward for you.

I could go out on a spree.
Think of the headline,

“Drunken scientist dances naked
in town square”.

That would take a bit of
explaining to the Institute.

You wouldn't dare!

[crockery clatters]

You don't know me very well,
do you?

It’s time you did.
Come and sit over here.

Certainly not!

Not doing very well, am I?

Trouble is, you're not
the kind of woman I’m used to.

Maybe that's what makes you
so interesting.

What do you mean by that?

[chuckles]

See what I mean?

The kind of woman I meet,
she wouldn't need telling.

- You've got a damned nerve!
- Yes, I have.

You're going to feel
even worse tomorrow.

No, no.
I’ll be all right.

No need for heroics with me,
lover.

They gave me until
mid-day tomorrow.

Mmm. Generous.

The only thing is, I don't know
if I can get hold of the money.

- You're joking!
- I’m not.

Did they hit you
on the head as well?

No.

Well, don't go getting vague,
here tomorrow or else!

- Seven thousand, five hundred.
- Seven thousand, fi...

All right then, you tell me.
What's the approach?

I’m always ready to be educated.

Running away? What's the matter?
Not sure of yourself.

Come on, come on, woman!

You've all got the same feelings
when it comes to the point.

That's better!
I can understand that!

Can't cry out for help even,
can you?

They'd only find you here
with your husband.

What's his approach then?

More subtle, I suppose,
with all that brain.

How do you like being married to
an electro-encephaloscope?

Don't you sometimes wish
it was a bit different?

More my type,
perhaps?

I bet you do.

Well, now you've got your wish.

Stay away from me!

- Take your hands off me!
- Why should I?

Your husband's hands,
aren't they?

The old body's under new
management now.

Husband and lover, all in one.

How's that for a package deal?

Oh, damn, blasted things!
How does he manage with them?

[giggling]

- Well?
- These are for you to sign.

Good, good!

You'll see where they're marked.

How long is it going to take
to transfer the money?

About 24 hours.

I’ll need some in cash by
mid-day tomorrow.

You need?

Yes, £7,500 for Dr. Meredith.

- It’s what I promised him.
- Yes, sir.

[man outside] I don't give a damn
what orders he's given.

I’ve something to say to him!

What the hell are you up to now?

Mr. Simpson asked
what I was doing and naturally--

Naturally you told him?

I should damn well think
he did!

I’ve been just
reading the duplicates.

If this is a new line
in criminal embezzlement,

it's the crudest
I’ve over come across!

It’s not criminal, sir,
unless you consider--

Leave this to me! Well?

I intend to sign those papers!

Very well. Sign them! Sign them!
And much good it will do you!

I’m going to my lawyer,
do you hear?

I shall call my broker,
and the bank.

I shall have my investment
in this business,

wound up by tomorrow morning!

And I shall make damn sure,

that every director and
every stockholder

knows what you're up to.

Every creditor shall hear
about it too.

And I wouldn't like to be in
your shoes this time tomorrow.

Hold on!
I haven't signed those yet.

- Not much point is there?
- What do you mean?

You heard what he said.
He's pulling out.

That's 25 percent.

Your margin is only five.

They'll never pay out on
this lot.

- But they must!
- Very well.

Try them yourself.

- Randall!
- I’ll post you the resignation.

And you can do what you like.

With the kind of name
you'll have tomorrow,

it won't much matter!

I wonder if it counts
as adultery?

Must be nearly dinnertime.

Your appetites are simple
enough, aren't they?

They must be built
into the brain-pattern.

I ought to make a note of that
for Allen's research.

To hell with Allen's research.

How long's he going to be,
on this little jaunt?

Another day, two days...

And then you'll have him back.
Looking forward to that?

Or maybe you prefer
the new model?

[car approaching]

What's that?

It’s your car!

Ann?

Ann?

Ann! Where are you?

Allen!
What are you doing here?

Have you got the money already?

No, not yet.
Is he all right?

- Yes he's good.
- Over the shock?

Well over!

Good, because we need his help.

What? No Allen,
wait a minute!

Good God, it's me!
Evening, Meredith.

Or should I say Gregory?

- He's un-tied!
- Yes well, he got cramp.

It’s quite alright.
He gave me his word of honour.

ln what I have learnt,

I wouldn't put too
much faith in that!

What have you learnt you
body-snatcher?

[muffled shouting]

You pathetic amateur!

I wouldn't employ you
as an office boy, second grade!

A hundred thousand! You weren't
in it for peanuts, were you?

Did you really think
you'd get away with it?

You've smashed everything,
you realise that, don't you?

Not just me,
but the shareholders.

You'll get out of it, somehow.

My lawyers are clever enough,
you mean!

Your lawyers?

There will be an enquiry.
There could be a prosecution!

I’m sorry.

Sorry!
You're a blundering idiot.

All right.
If you want it that way,

what have you done with that
£75,000 you made through Smith?

You know about that?

You didn't put it
through the books, did you?

- No, course I didn't!
- Where is it? I want it!

- You want it?
- Yes,

in cash,
by midday tomorrow.

That's the price you
pay to get your body back.

After the mess you've made,
I’m not sure I want to.

All right, so you get the money,
then you'll change back?

Yes. If you get it.

What do you mean if?

I gave that money to Elizabeth.

You'll have to persuade her
to hand it over.

[engine starts up]

What a mess!

Do you really want to go back?

Wouldn't you rather stay
as you are?

You'd like that, wouldn't you?

You want all the money?

You said you'd be wanting
7,500.

But you said I should keep
the rest, remember?

For both of us.

So that if anything went wrong
with the business,

at least they couldn't
touch that.

It would be our nest-egg
to start us off again.

Something has gone wrong,
hasn't it?

Terribly wrong,

I’ve never seen you
like this before.

I just didn't want to
worry you with it all.

You said that as though
you meant it.

Yes, I do mean it.

Kind words come expensive,
don't they?

Seventy five thousand.
Will it save the business?

If it doesn't, I shall lose
my own money as well.

I’m sure, you'll be all right.

I have to trust you, don't I?
ln spite of everything.

I need it in cash
by midday tomorrow.

Tomorrow?

Well, I can ask the broker

to sell the bonds
tomorrow morning.

But to get the money by midday?

You could start
a whole new life in his body!

It takes capital.
Costs money to start a new life.

That's just the point,
You'll have money!

He'll put the 75,000
into his own account.

That's your account now.

All you've got to do is
learn his signature.

It was easy.
He learnt yours.

He said he wanted it in cash.

And he'll probably
bring it with him.

Thank you.

Oh, I see,
Thank you, Mrs. Gregory.

He left the house about an hour ago.
They've no idea where he's gone.

Did he get the money?

I couldn't ask her that,
could I?

- Jack?
- Mm?

Even if he doesn't
get the money,

it doesn't make any difference,
does it?

No difference!

Well, I’ve got my savings,
and his...

I know it's not very much,

but, at least it's better than
bankruptcy or court cases.

We can do it, can't we?
Who can stop us?

- He can.
- But how?

By telling the world
exactly what happened.

- No one would believe him!
- Everybody would, eventually.

He knows how that machine works.

He knows every detail
of his own past.

Stored up in his memory.

Given time he could
demonstrate beyond all doubt

that he is Professor Meredith
and I’m Jack Gregory.

A nice legal point, I grant you.
A new line in habeas corpus.

But he could make life
impossible for me.

I see what you mean.
His memory...

[car approaching]

That's my car!

- Have you got the money?
- Yes I have.

So you've got it!

You actually managed
to persuade her to hand it over!

It wasn't difficult.

Why the hell don't you
treat her decently?

- Well, you know me.
- Yes, I’m afraid I do.

Well, where is it?

You don't think I was going to
bring it here,

where he might get
his hands on it?

You've put it into your account?

No. I haven't done that either.
He might forge my signature.

Oh, well done, Meredith!

Two days in my body,

you're beginning to learn
the facts of life!

Allen, what have you
done with it?

I paid 7,500 to Smith.

- That was owing.
- So it was.

And, I paid £50,000
into your business.

- You did what?
- Yes, your partners agreed,

to let bygones be bygones.
So you'll be all right.

- You're a fool!
- Wait a minute.

There's another 17,000 or more
stashed away somewhere.

Oh, yes, I’ve taken that,
in down payment on the machine.

You must admit it's
a working proposition.

And I’ll need royalties
of course.

Seventeen thousand?

Yes. I’ve made that
over to the Institute,

for use on research
and development.

So at least the whole thing
hasn't been

a complete waste of effort.

[Gregory laughs]

I’m glad you find it amusing.
Are you ready for the operation?

Yes! Come on,
let's get on with it.

Ann!

Ann? Ann?

- What's the matter with her?
- Strain, that's all.

Do we need her to work
that box of tricks?

No. It’s completely automatic.

- I’ll leave her here then.
- Very good idea!

No. No.

Right.
Lie down on that couch.

- Is it going to work?
- It has before.

It will again.

If it doesn't, you and l
won't know very much about it.

Mind you, I’ve enjoyed the rest.

I might promote it
as a new line in rescuers.

Getting away from it all,
even the wife.

- Are you ready?
- Get on with it.

[machine hums]

[humming continues]

[humming stops]

Jack?

Jack.

Jack.

- Ann?
- Allen?

The Reverse switch.
Why, Ann, why?

His lead?

His?

Yes, of course, his!
They were crossed.

Jack.

Jack!
