1
00:00:10,680 --> 00:00:16,600
Love is the greatest of allthings, greater than fame,
2
00:00:16,720 --> 00:00:19,320
wealth, or knowledge.
3
00:00:19,440 --> 00:00:21,760
But, like all things,
it can be eroded.
4
00:00:25,400 --> 00:00:30,680
James Coombs, shopkeeper.
5
00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:33,320
His wife, Evelyn.
6
00:00:33,440 --> 00:00:37,760
Once there had
been love, but now,
7
00:00:37,880 --> 00:00:40,560
now there was only
rank disaffection.
8
00:00:40,680 --> 00:00:43,160
A man can take so
much and then, no more.
9
00:00:43,280 --> 00:00:44,040
I've had words.
10
00:00:44,160 --> 00:00:44,960
I've told her.
11
00:00:45,080 --> 00:00:46,520
But does she listen?
12
00:00:46,640 --> 00:00:48,760
NARRATOR: Although anyonewho chanced to meet him
13
00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:52,920
on that Sunday afternoon mightbe surprised to learn of it,
14
00:00:53,040 --> 00:00:56,880
Coombs was generally
a mild and timid man.
15
00:00:57,000 --> 00:01:00,600
She's greedy,
loquacious, disloyal.
16
00:01:07,040 --> 00:01:07,920
I could kill her.
17
00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:22,800
She changed out
of all recognition
18
00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:24,040
since I married her.
19
00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:25,200
Calling me names.
20
00:01:25,320 --> 00:01:27,080
Fritting away all my profits.
21
00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:30,960
I'll bleeding kill
her, all right.

[music playing]
23
00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:03,080
Only married me to
escape the labors
24
00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:08,800
of the work room, but too stupidto do her share in the shop.
25
00:02:08,920 --> 00:02:12,400
I will bleeding kill her.

[music playing]
27
00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:39,440
NARRATOR: In Coombs'
heart, he knew
28
00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:41,680
he would never kill his wife.
29
00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:44,840
And yet, he felt he
could endure no more.
30
00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:05,160
Each Sunday it started
off well enough.
31
00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:07,000
[knocking]
32
00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:10,360
That must be Jenny
and her new chap.
33
00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:12,440
You invited Jenny?
34
00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:14,280
Yes.
35
00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:15,680
Well, you didn't tell me.
36
00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:16,560
EVELYN COOMBS: Didn't I?
37
00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:24,520
I thought I did.
38
00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:35,000
Come in!
39
00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:36,960
Come in.
40
00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:38,480
JENNY: Hello, Evelyn!
41
00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:39,760
Blasted Jenny.
42
00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:42,040
EVELYN COOMBS: Such
a lovely hat, Jenny.
43
00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:43,000
Ain't it just?
44
00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:44,720
I was ever so taken.
45
00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:46,520
Ooh, afternoon, Mr. Coombs.
46
00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:47,800
Good afternoon, Jenny.
47
00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:50,560
This here's my
pal, Mr. Clarence.
48
00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:51,960
Good afternoon, Mr. Coombs.
49
00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:55,320
JENNY: Jim?
50
00:04:01,360 --> 00:04:04,240
Clear away these thingswhile I attend to our guests.
51
00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:13,800
Flaming Jenny,
come around whenever
52
00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:18,160
she fancies with her
gabbling chronicle
53
00:04:18,280 --> 00:04:20,520
fellas and her flaming hats!
54
00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:31,920
JENNY: And I said, isn'tthat the most divine hat?
55
00:04:32,040 --> 00:04:33,440
And darling Clarence
only goes and offers
56
00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:34,640
to go chase it for me.
57
00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:37,040
EVELYN COOMBS: Oh,
how sweet of him.
58
00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:38,840
Why no, Jim.
59
00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:41,760
Why don't we go out
shopping this weekend?
60
00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:44,520
You've already got threehats, Evie, and only one head.
61
00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:45,800
Well, a lady's got
to look her best.
62
00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:46,680
Quite.

65
00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:01,880
so don't you know?
66
00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:05,280
Sunday.
67
00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:08,160
Sunday!
68
00:05:08,280 --> 00:05:09,720
JENNY: What's wrong
with my playing now?
69
00:05:09,840 --> 00:05:10,960
Careful with that music stool.
70
00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:12,680
It's not built for heavyweights.
71
00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:14,640
JENNY: Don't you
worry about weights!
72
00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:17,040
Can't people just
enjoy themselves?
73
00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:19,000
Surely you don't hold
[inaudible] of music
74
00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:20,360
on a Sunday, Mr. Coombs?
75
00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:21,320
I do.
76
00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:23,200
May I ask for why?
77
00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:26,760
Because it don't suit me.
78
00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:28,560
I don't mind rational
enjoyment at all,
79
00:05:28,680 --> 00:05:32,080
but I am not having weekdaytunes played on a Sunday
80
00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:33,080
in this house.
81
00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:35,800
I never saw such a man as you.
82
00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:38,120
You've altered all round
since we was married.
83
00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:40,120
I'm a businessman.
84
00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:41,960
I have to study my collection.
85
00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:44,000
If you don't mean to
study my collection,
86
00:05:44,120 --> 00:05:45,080
what'd you marry me for?
87
00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:46,280
I wonder.
88
00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:51,160
You've gone all
stiff and starched.
89
00:05:51,280 --> 00:05:52,480
Never mind, Jim.
90
00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:54,040
Play on, Jenny.
91
00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:02,480
I tell you, I
will not have that!
92
00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:05,280
No violence, now.
93
00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:07,320
Who the deuce are you?
94
00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:10,000
I am Jenny's intended.
95
00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:12,480
I don't care who you are.
96
00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:13,680
Jim!
97
00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:15,680
You ought to be
ashamed of yourself,
98
00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:16,600
insulting your guests.
99
00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:18,320
They're not my guests.
100
00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:19,720
Go on, get out, the pair of ya.
101
00:06:19,840 --> 00:06:20,760
- Well!
- Go on!
102
00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:22,440
Get out!
- You do no such thing!
103
00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:24,440
You stay just where you are.
104
00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:26,520
You are always welcome
in this house, Jenny.
105
00:06:26,640 --> 00:06:28,520
You, too, Clarence.
106
00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:29,400
JENNY: Right.
107

[SINGING] Little dollydaydream, pride of Idaho.
109
00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:56,040
NARRATOR: All that
remained in him now was
110
00:06:56,160 --> 00:06:59,800
disappointment and loneliness.
111
00:06:59,920 --> 00:07:02,720
Coombs began to realize it wasnot Evelyn's death he craved.
112
00:07:12,040 --> 00:07:13,960
Serve her right
if I killed myself.
113
00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:20,040
I'll hang myself.
114
00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:20,920
Here.
115
00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:24,920
Up a tree.
116
00:07:54,440 --> 00:07:55,360
Why not here and now?
117
00:08:26,080 --> 00:08:28,520
Rather good stuff.
118
00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:31,840
[ethereal music]
119
00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:19,520
JENNY: Such a fuss
about nothing.
120
00:09:19,640 --> 00:09:21,520
See what I have to put
up with, Mr. Clarence?
121
00:09:21,640 --> 00:09:23,280
He is a bit hasty.
122
00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:26,440
All he cares about
is that old shop.
123
00:09:26,560 --> 00:09:29,040
And if I have any
company or give myself
124
00:09:29,160 --> 00:09:31,440
anything to keep
myself decent, get
125
00:09:31,560 --> 00:09:33,920
any little thing I want outof the housekeeping money,
126
00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:35,360
there's disagreeables.
127
00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:37,680
Well, if a man values awoman, he must be prepared
128
00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:39,360
to make sacrifices for her.
129
00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:41,960
He was a fool to have me, ifyou don't mind me saying so.
130
00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:44,440
I should have seen
it coming, Jenny.
131
00:09:44,560 --> 00:09:47,120
If it wasn't for my oldfather, we shouldn't have had
132
00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:49,040
not a carriage to our wedding.
133
00:09:49,160 --> 00:09:50,960
Lord, he didn't
stick out at that.
134
00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:52,400
For my own part,
I wouldn't think
135
00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:53,960
of marrying until
I was in a position
136
00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:56,280
to do the thing in style.
137
00:09:56,400 --> 00:09:58,080
The fuss he makes about money.
138
00:09:58,200 --> 00:10:01,960
Always coming to me withsheets of paper and figures,
139
00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:03,480
pretty near crying.
140
00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:06,840
Always asking me to work
in that shop, I ask ya.
141
00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:09,320
I says to him, if
you wanted a slavey,
142
00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:10,640
why didn't you marry one?
143
00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:12,640
Instead of a respectable girl.
144
00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:16,000
He don't deserve you,Evelyn, and that's a fact.
145
00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:17,880
He's a little grub of a man.
146
00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:19,360
A grub.
147
00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:20,720
Yes, indeed.
148
00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:22,600
A grub of a man.
JENNY: Grub of a man.
149
00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:29,000
Oh, stop.

tune again, Jenny.

Oh yeah, go on, Jenny.

00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:38,680
He's a grub.

He's a grub of a man.

If there's something on yourmind, don't think it's you,

In eating what he believedto be poisonous toadstools,
162
00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:30,160
James Coombs had elected
to leave this world.
163
00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:32,920
However, he was
completely unprepared
164
00:11:33,040 --> 00:11:37,000
for the bizarre and irrationaldimensions of the new world
165
00:11:37,120 --> 00:11:38,240
he had inadvertently entered.
166
00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:44,680
They were not
poisonous toadstools.
167
00:11:58,800 --> 00:12:02,360
JAMES COOMBS: He was veryunpleasant back home.
168
00:12:02,480 --> 00:12:08,440
And all because they just wantto be out and enjoy themselves.
169
00:12:08,560 --> 00:12:13,040
They were quite right, too.
170
00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:23,760
I think up until now,
I've been very dull.
171
00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:38,320
But I shall be dull no longer.
172
00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:48,760
Thank you for the lovelycrumpets, Mrs. Coombs.
173
00:12:48,880 --> 00:12:50,280
My pleasure.
174
00:12:50,400 --> 00:12:52,040
Marvelous, have a bit ofa sing-song too, ain't it?
175
00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:53,520
Delightful.
176
00:12:53,640 --> 00:12:56,960
And I'm sorry about the
earlier disagreeables.
177
00:12:57,080 --> 00:12:59,200
You're a saint for putting upwith him, Evie, you know that,
178
00:12:59,320 --> 00:13:00,760
don't ya?
- I tries me best.

00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:06,840
[door closes]
182
00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:10,040
Here's his lordship.
183
00:13:10,160 --> 00:13:11,840
He left a lion.
184
00:13:11,960 --> 00:13:13,880
He'll return like
a lamb, I'll lay.
185
00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:25,880
Jim.
186
00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:27,520
Evie.
187
00:13:27,640 --> 00:13:28,400
Evie.
188
00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:33,080
Jim!
189
00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:39,640
You look just like whenwe first met, only older.
190
00:13:39,760 --> 00:13:40,960
JENNY: He's drunk.
191
00:13:41,080 --> 00:13:42,240
CLARENCE: We're just
on our way, Mr. Coombs.
192
00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:43,800
Thank you for your hospitality.
193
00:13:43,920 --> 00:13:46,280
No, surely you're going.
194
00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:47,360
Afraid so, Mr. Coombs.
195
00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:48,760
JENNY: Come on, Clarence.
196
00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:49,920
See you again soon, I hope.
197
00:13:50,040 --> 00:13:51,240
Bye, Evelyn.
198
00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:52,120
No!
199
00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:54,840
Stay, stay.
200
00:13:54,960 --> 00:13:56,800
Sing some more songs.
201
00:13:56,920 --> 00:13:59,840
Here, have a toadstool.
202
00:13:59,960 --> 00:14:01,520
Surely good stuff.
203
00:14:04,960 --> 00:14:06,400
Perhaps not.
204
00:14:06,520 --> 00:14:07,880
Not in my house.
205
00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:10,840
A monster here.
206
00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:12,360
Jim!
207
00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:13,680
No disagreeables.
208
00:14:19,640 --> 00:14:21,280
Come on, sing!
209
00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:22,800
CLARENCE: Mrs. Coombs!
210
00:14:22,920 --> 00:14:23,680
JAMES COOMBS: Sing man!
211
00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:24,600
Sing!
212
00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:27,320
All right.
213
00:14:27,440 --> 00:14:29,280
All right.
214
00:14:29,400 --> 00:14:33,000
[SINGING] Little dollydaydream, pride of Idaho.
215
00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:37,520
Come along now!
216
00:14:37,640 --> 00:14:38,840
Mr. Clarence!
217
00:14:38,960 --> 00:14:42,960
We must have some merriment!
218
00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:44,000
Dance with me.
219
00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:44,960
What?
220
00:14:45,080 --> 00:14:46,320
JAMES COOMBS: Dance with me.
221
00:14:49,880 --> 00:14:50,760
No, no.
222
00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:52,360
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
223
00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:53,480
Please.
224
00:14:53,600 --> 00:14:55,800
Mr. Coombs, we
are both busy men.
225
00:14:55,920 --> 00:14:57,240
Too busy for merriment?
226
00:14:57,360 --> 00:14:58,560
Too busy?
227
00:14:58,680 --> 00:15:00,000
But that's just the problem.
228
00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:01,760
We mustn't be too busy.
229
00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:10,680
We must burn light as brightand as wondrous as possible!
230
00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:13,480
Now come dance
with me, once more.
231
00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:17,080
Dance with me!
232
00:15:17,200 --> 00:15:17,960
No!
233
00:15:29,080 --> 00:15:29,960
[grunts]
234
00:15:42,560 --> 00:15:44,520
Evelyn assumed
Coombs behavior to be
235
00:15:44,640 --> 00:15:47,720
due to overindulgence in ale.
236
00:15:47,840 --> 00:15:53,160
And he did nothing todissuade her from this belief.
237
00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:57,760
Naturally, relations werestrained for several days.
238
00:15:57,880 --> 00:15:59,920
I don't know what to say.
239
00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:02,280
I'm sure I don't.
240
00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:05,640
Maybe best not say anything.
241
00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:13,480
NARRATOR: Yet,
soon enough, things
242
00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:15,000
returned to the old order.
243
00:16:17,920 --> 00:16:21,160
However, having
tasted heaven, Coombs
244
00:16:21,280 --> 00:16:24,760
found it difficult to becontent with the old order.
245
00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:33,920
JAMES COOMBS: Purple pierce.
246
00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:36,800
Season, late spring.
247
00:16:36,920 --> 00:16:39,600
Habitat, woodlands.
248
00:16:39,720 --> 00:16:40,600
Hallucinogenic.
249
00:16:44,640 --> 00:16:46,760
NARRATOR: Coombs
now realized he had
250
00:16:46,880 --> 00:16:49,840
been the victim of an overdose.
251
00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:53,360
He believed, with
careful calculation,
252
00:16:53,480 --> 00:16:57,560
he could determine exactly thecorrect dose, the dose which
253
00:16:57,680 --> 00:17:00,760
would induce within
him a gentle intimation
254
00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:03,680
of that blissful feelinghe so craved to know again.
255
00:18:51,360 --> 00:18:54,800
In his dealings with theworld, there grew a softness
256
00:18:54,920 --> 00:18:57,360
and a kindness in him.
257
00:18:57,480 --> 00:18:59,240
One crusty farmhouse loaf.
258
00:18:59,360 --> 00:19:00,480
Thank you, Mr. Coombs.
259
00:19:04,480 --> 00:19:12,640
[SINGING] Little dollydaydream, pride of Idaho,
260
00:19:12,760 --> 00:19:17,520
if there's something on yourmind don't think it's you,
261
00:19:17,640 --> 00:19:20,240
cause no one's gonna
kiss the girl but me.
262
00:19:20,360 --> 00:19:22,040
NARRATOR: Inevitably,
of course, there
263
00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:26,320
was the occasional
miscalculation,
264
00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:28,280
and he had to weather
the consequences.
265
00:19:38,120 --> 00:19:39,560
Something smells nice.
266
00:19:39,680 --> 00:19:40,440
It's just soup.
267
00:19:51,960 --> 00:19:52,840
JAMES COOMBS: I'll get a vase.
268
00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:31,920
What sort of creature are you?
269
00:20:57,680 --> 00:21:01,080
[rhythmic music]
270
00:21:10,160 --> 00:21:11,040
[screams]
271
00:21:41,040 --> 00:21:45,600
Many a man has desire to livein a state of constant bliss.
272
00:21:45,720 --> 00:21:49,640
Many a man has tried tocreate his own wonderland.
273
00:21:49,760 --> 00:21:53,040
But few are able to
live there forever.
274
00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:56,800
Because, in the end, thebarbarians will always arrive.
275
00:22:06,080 --> 00:22:10,360
