Now, what about food?

Normal intake has continued
for over a week now.

Good. Good.

Any new signs of rejection?

Absolutely none.

The patch of pneumonia
has completely cleared up.

What about his blood pressure?

It was a little off yesterday,

but today it seems to be
completely level.

Oh, excellent. Excellent.

- Any adverse or abnormal symptoms?
- Couldn't be better.

The transplant is a complete success.

Excellent.

Donald,

you were right.

He does look fantastic.

We complete the balance of the tests now.

Tomorrow, we'll remove the original head.

You see? He loves me.

Doctor, I wouldn't get too close
if I were you.

Don't be absurd, Donald.

He trusts me...

and he needs me.

After all, we understand one another

I am the genius
that has given him a new life

and he, in return, will help me keep mine.

Arterial clamp, please.

Ahh, little more perfusion.

Ladies and gentlemen, this is one
of our 3 operating facilities.

The Kirshner transplant foundation
is the only place in the world

where such a massive
operation can take place.

Dr. Smith, in such a massive transplant,

why don't we see more blood?

That's because at this moment,

both the patient and the donor organs

are hooked up to individual
heart-lung machines.

They control the blood flow
through those plastic tubes.

Is that Dr. Kirshner on the platform?

Yes, Dr. Kirshner supervises the

major transplant operations.

Does he ever operate himself?

No, uh... not anymore.

He developed a severe arthritic condition
a year or so ago, and

well, it makes surgery
quite difficult for him.

Dr. Thomas, x-ray please

Philip,

walk me to the door, will you?
Sure, Max.

I'm leaving early today.

Now, the only thing left on the schedule.

Is a kidney transplant, right?

I see no problems there, do you?

I don't.

Well, you and Hersch take care of it,

and I'll see you in the morning.
OK.

By the way,

that was a pretty good job
in there today, you and the team.

Thank you. I didn't think you'd noticed.

I said good. I didn't say excellent.

Are you all right now, doctor?

They're getting worse.

And more frequent.

There must be something we can do.

You know damn well I can't take any drugs.

I must keep my mind alert.

I'm sorry Thomas, but it's difficult.

Come on, boy.

Yes...

Come on.

Gently.

No sudden moves.

Just gently.

Now, Thomas, move easily.

Give him the injection.

Quiet boy.

Attaboy. Easy boy. Easy.

Come on.

All right, Thomas,
now, move easy and stay calm.

Behave normally and slowly
and just...

just as if you're dealing with a child.

I didn't get him! I didn't get him!

Be quiet! Don't run around.
Keep that cage steady!

Damn it, donald! Don't just stand there!

Try him again,
get him from the other end!

Watch him, now!
Hold that cage down!

Hold it!

Donald, hold the cage down!

Hold it down!

I can't!

Get around him!

Don't let him get away!

Here, boy! Look out!

He's coming for you!

Oh, no! I'll get him.

Get away from him! Get away from him!

The tranquilizer gun, quickly!

Doctor, are you all right?

Forget about me!

Get him back.

And get him back alive.

I haven't got much time.

Move!

He can't have gotten too far, could he?

Look at that.

This monitor
will discard organs that are malfunctioning

beyond what the human eye can detect.

Young man,

you realize we operate here
on a success average of 92%?

Can your machine improve on that?

I'm sorry to interrupt, Dr. Kirshner.

Dr. Williams has arrived.

You asked me to let you know
as soon as he got here.

Show him in here, will you?

Dr. Williams?

I instructed the board to
hire him without an interview.

He's done some interesting work
on rejection prevention.

Well, of course. I've read about him.
He's excellent.

This is Dr. Williams.

Dr. Desmond.

Pleasure meeting you.

Phil Desmond, head of surgery
this is Jim Franklyn.

- Hi. How are you?
- Fine.

And this is Dr. Kirshner.

Dr. Kirshner,

I've been looking forward
for meeting you, sir,

and I'm very happy to be on your staff.

Won't you sit down?

Thank you.

Dr. Williams...

Yes, sir?

How was the trip from minneapolis?

Very pleasant, thank you.

Uh... doctor...

since originally hiring you, uh...

certain situations
which we were depending upon

haven't arisen.

Due to budgetary setbacks,

we find that we are unable
to use your services.

But we signed a contract,

and I've already given up
my position in Minneapolis.

Miss Davis...

check the terms of his contract.

It's for a 6-month trial period
at 500 per week.

The board was most generous.

I've been a physician for over 5 years.

I was making much more than that,
in Minneapolis.

Oh come now, Dr. Williams.

I didn't mean that at all.

What I meant was,

it's just that here we
pay our lab men much less.

I'm much more
than a lab man, sir.

I'm a doctor.

Let's not bargain, doctor.

What is it you want?

What I wanted was to work
with Maxwell Kirshner,

one of the foremost transplant specialists
in the world.

Why is it you people always
put yourself in a position

where you... where you don't fit?

But Max, that's not necessary.

Why is it all of a sudden that, uh...

I don't fit?

I'll get some coffee,
and we'll...

look at this thing some other time.

Yes, why don't you do that?

Yes, uh, I'll do that.

Why don't we stop
playing around, doctor?

Things might be different
if I were white, right?

Let's put it this way...

this is my hospital.

I run it my way.

I hire whom I please...

and I don't wish to hire you.

Oh, no.

Let's put it this way...

we have a legal and binding contract,

and I intend to see you
follow it to the letter.

All right, doctor,

you'll have your 6 months.

But that will be it!

Report to Dr. Hersch for scheduling.

Thank you.

6 months will be long enough.

I'll watch you, and I'll learn.

That's what I came here for.

And when I've learned what you know,

I'll fit myself in somewhere else.

Max, that wasn't necessary.

What is or what is not necessary
in this hospital is my affair.

As you know,

I never allow colored people
on my personal staff.

I just got carried away by
superficial accomplishments

before interviewing the man.

Whether he's black or not,
he's an excellent doctor.

Philip,

do me a favor, will you?

Cover for me today.
I have some important things to

do at home.

I don't believe it.

Yeah, I know.

Call Dr. Desmond.

Tell him it's urgent.

I want to see him here immediately.

Max, what is it?

Hello, Philip.

What's the problem?

My condition is terminal chest cancer.

Prognosis...

I have 2 or 3 weeks to live, at the most.

Why didn't you tell me this?

There was no point in telling you.

You couldn't do anything about it, anyway.

Well, in your own case,
I doubt if you're the best judge.

Let's get you to the hospital
and start working.

Donald...

show him the x-rays.

That was taken over 3 months ago.

As you can see,
the condition was inoperable at that time.

Progression has gone past the lungs

and into the pleural cavity
and the rib cage.

Organ transplanting would be futile.

Afraid I'll have to agree with you.

Is there anything I can
do to make it easier?

Yes, there is.

Donald, show him.

That is not the gorilla's original head.

He's heavily sedated now.

But we have achieved 100%
total spinal alignment

on the newly transplanted head.

It's impossible.

Is it?

Heart, lungs, kidneys, arms, legs...

everything is functioning properly.

Look at this.

Top one.

I kept the original body
and the transplanted head alive

on 2 separate heart-lung machines.

Well, what do you think?

Absolutely amazing.

Exactly.

Total spinal alignment

achieved by using matching
electric currents

attached to the nerve endings.

I left the 2 heads together
for 28 days,

until the new one was
strong enough to take over.

The removal operation
was really quite simple.

I did it myself.

Alone...

in 35 minutes.

This could revolutionize
the whole profession.

I'll get a paper on it right away.

No, no, no, no.

We've got to go much further.

That's why I need your help.

What are you talking about?

I'm talking about science,
about genius.

Genius must be prolonged.

Philip, I want to transplant
my head on a healthy body.

Well?

Well?

I don't know.

What don't you know?

It hasn't been proven.

Then we'll prove it now.

My genius must be allowed
to continue.

Philip, I have nothing,
absolutely nothing to lose.

There's no other way for me to live.

I guess there isn't.

Of course, we'll need a donor,

perhaps someone with
an inoperable brain condition,

with a body that cannot be saved,

but it's healthy enough
to withstand the operation

until we can
remove the other head.

That won't be easy, Max.

Such a patient only comes
along once in a great while.

Perform the operation here,
in secret.

The fewer people
who know about this,

the less our chance of
trouble with public opinion.

Philip, you've gotto help me.

Well, as you said, Max,

you have absolutely nothing to lose.

No, no. His brain must be
totally inoperable.

A cancer patient is
out of the question.

Kirshner institute

the patient must be able to sustain life
for at least 30 to 40 days.

No. I'm sorry.

Now, what does the patient have?

Kirshner institute.

No good, Patricia..

We've had 2 possibilities
in the last 4 weeks,

and neither matched up.

Oh, I'm sorry, but a cancer patient
is out of the question.

Kirshner institute. May I help you?

Yes?

Oh, fine. Bring him in.

Hey Phil, it's been a long time.

Mitch. Thanks for seeing me
on such short notice.

- Anytime.
- Grab a chair.

Thank you.

Since I talked to you yesterday,

I've come up with a few answers.

Oh? Can you help us?

You said it was urgent,

so I pulled a few strings for you,

and I talked to the governor,

and I talked to
the attorney general,

and, uh... here's the deal.

First,

we can't let any of this
leak to the press.

We're already having enough trouble

with these executions

without adding fuel to the fire.

You've got it.

Next,

the convict must be
under total police security at all times,

And proof of his subsequent death

must be certified by a state physician.

Of course, we're assuming some things.

We're assuming that someone on death row
will decide to

donate his body to science
rather than go to the chair.

Well, we can only hope.

Tell me something... just off the record...

what's this experiment about?

Transplant, Mitch.

Just another transplant.

Men, listen up
We have a message from the warden.

This is an offer from the office
of the lieutenant governor.

"To all men presently on death row.

"We are hereby offering one of you

the opportunity "of donating your body
to science

"rather than undergo your present sentence
"of death by electrocution

"while the resulting
scientific experiment will,

"after a period of 30 days,
also result in your death,

"you will at least have
the personal satisfaction

"that your life has aided humanity

and the scientific world."

Only 60 millimeters of mercury.

What do you think?

Well, if it weren't for our life
support systems, he'd be dead now.

As it is I don't know uh...

One day, 4 at the most.

I don't think he'll regain consciousness,

which means...

that we're going to have to
find our donor immediately.

Here am I

take my hand

if I trip, if I fall

won't you help me stand?

All right, Jack.

It's time.

Who might be...

don't go easy, Jack.

Jack, let 'em have it.

Jack, give 'em hell!

Jack, you fight 'em all the way!

Just take 'em and bite 'em
and gouge 'em dead.

Jack, make 'em drag you in there!

Jack, make 'em work!

Jack, listen, when they kill ya...

when they kill ya, they'll
know they killed a real man!

Jack!

Bye, Jack.

I wanna try to understand

to live right, to give light

to my fellow man

so long

sometimes it's been a crime

for the children that are hungry

problem is...

and I will dwell in the house
of the lord forever. Amen.

More power to you, brother.

Jack moss...

It's my duty to carry out

the sentence of the court
and the law of our state.

Is there anything that you wish to say

before sentence is carried out?

Yeah...

the Same thing I've been tellin' you guys
all the time

and you didn't believe me

I'm innocent,

and my girl and some friends
are close to proving it.

So I've been thinkin', warden.

I think I'd like to donate my body
to science after all.

Dr. Desmond?

Sergeant Hacker.

Sergeant. This is Dr. Smith.

How do you do?

This is your volunteer.

There's no way out of here.

Ok, boys, let's go.

Hey, doc, is this gonna hurt?

I beg your pardon?

You're gonna operate, right?
Is this gonna hurt?

No, no, no. You won't feel a thing.

That's good.

'Cause I got what is called
a low pain level.

I don't like to get hurt.

We're gonna sedate you right now.

You won't feel any pain.

Oh, that's good.

What are you guys gonna
do to me, anyway?

We're conducting a transplant
experiment, mr. Moss.

They did explain to you
that you won't survive this operation?

They did explain?

Oh, yeah.

Yes, sir.

Big Jack got himself 30 more days.

Then the man's gonna try
to pull the switch again.

30 more days...

maybe all I need.

Then everybody gonna know
big Jack is innocent.

Yes, sir...

tried to tell 'em.

Innocent...

Sponge.

Light.

Pair of scissors.

Bulldog clamp.

Scalpel and forceps.

Scalpel.

Suction.

Pads.

Ringer's solution.

Ochsner clamp.

500cc packed cells.

Sponge.

Sponge.

Hemostat.

Isotonic saline.

Mosquito clamp. Another mosquito clamp.

Arterial choke, 7-0.

Steady...

suction.

Smitty? Ready.

Release the clamps.

More perfusion.

Steady.

More perfusion.

Cooley clamp.

A little more retraction.

The bailey forceps.

1-to-100,000 adrenaline, please.

Ochsner clamp.

Cooley clamp.

Scalpel and forceps.

Arterial choke, 7-0.

- Captain?
- Thornton, sir.

Christie's my name.

Colonel Wiley, major Williams.

Hello, sir.

I'm very sorry colonel Langston
isn't here to greet you, sir.

He was called away
to a civil defense meeting, sir.

Excellent job.

I congratulate all of you.

Just remember, complete secrecy.

Ok, Larry, you're on.

What are you watching?

Uh, nothing special.

I was just switching around
trying to find something else.

How about making us some coffee?

Yeah, sure, sarge. Anything you say.

Philip.

Max.

Max, I'm here.

Max, listen to me.

We did it.

We transplanted your head.

We did it, Max.

And everything is checking out properly.

Max, it's going to work.

I knew it would.

By god, I knew it would.

I can feel it.

I can breathe with it.

I can feel my hand.

I... I think I'm moving it.

Am I moving it?

Yes, it's moving, Max.

It feels so strong...

so magnificent.

Fantastically,
beautifully strong.

I think I'm lifting my left arm.

I am lifting it.

I know I am.

Max, we had to make
a last-minute decision.

We had no choice.

Is this some kind of a joke?

You were in a terminal coma.

We had nowhere else to turn.

It was our only chance.

If it wasn't for him,
you wouldn't have made it.

Let me see him.

There was nothing else we could do.

Is that a fact?

You wouldn't have lived on
the life support systems

for more than one more day.

Is that a fact?

Breakfast will be along in a few minutes.

Mm, thank you, honey.

Hey, Sam, wake up.
It's breakfast time.

Take your hands off me!

What happened?

What have you guys done to me?

I'm talkin' to you, man.
What have you guys done?

Shut up.

Where's the rest of you?

We are joined together temporarily.

What do you mean?

They've transplanted my
head onto your body.

Now will you shut up and get some rest?

We need our rest.

We?

What do you mean, we?

I told you guys I was innocent.

I just needed a little time.

Why'd you guys do this to me?

Why'd you do this to me?!

Easy, easy! Take it easy, moss.

Let me go! Let me go!

Help! Help!

Hold it. I'll take care of this.

Help!

Let me go!

Oh, my god!

Let me go!

Let me go!

I told you I was innocent, man!

Let me go...

I couldn't stop him.

That black bastard, I couldn't stop him.

It's all right doc, just relax.
No harm done.

The incision is fine.

Just take it easy.

I couldn't move the left arm.
He was controlling it.

I couldn't move it.

Takes time, Max. You know that.

Your head won't begin
to take control of that body...

for 10 to 14 days.

How am I going to...

ever control him?

He might do it again.
He could...

he could kill me.

No, no. No. He won't.

We'll keep his head
locally sedated until then.

When he was out,

you only had minor control.
Do you understand that?

Yes.

Now, I'm gonna give you something
to make you relax.

Uh! Philip.

Philip, I can feel that.

I can feel it.

I can feel it.

It's all right, Max.

We're gonna make it.

Dr. Williams, I've been looking for you.

Dr. Desmond has asked
that you meet with him,

at Dr. Kirshner's

as soon as possible.
And here's the address.

Are you sure he asked for me?

Specifically.

Thank you.

Dr. Desmond. Over there.

Thank you.

Oh, Dr. Williams.

Uh, we'll talk about this later.
Right.

Doctor, I'm sorry I haven't had
a chance to talk to you

since you started at the hospital.

It's really not necessary.

Well, yes, it is.

I want to apologize.

I mean, for Dr. Kirshner.

See, he's not had an easy life.

Even his childhood was...

well, I can certainly
sympathize with people

who have had
a difficult childhood.

Let me put it another way.

It's possible we may be making
medical history right here.

We'll know in a week or so.

We've performed a massive transplant.

We're expecting severe rejection problems.

Quite honestly, I could use your help.

Why me?

Because of your anti-rejection techniques.

They could come in handy.

Could mean the difference
between success and failure.

You've got the best people
from the hospital here.

Now, why me?

And especially here.

Doctor, I understand your problem.

But did you ever stop to think that

my views may not be the Same
as Dr. Kirshner's?

Now, we're testing 24 hours a day.

You're a good doctor

and an excellent lab man.

I need your help.

Will you help me?

Yes, doctor I'll do
everything I can to help.

Thank you.

Now, I can't divulge the full nature
of the operation as yet.

You'll have enough
information to do your job.

I want you to go home, get some things.

The entire staff is living here.

Dr. Hersch will assign you a room.

Thank you.

Thank you.

We have a patch of pneumonia.

That extra decadron
is giving us one hell of a problem.

The body just can't fight
infection with it.

Cut down the dosage of barbital
to the black head.

He's too far under.

We need all the help we can get from him.

Right, doctor. Right away.

You've been working for 16 hours.
Would you like me to get you a relief?

Oh, no, thank you, nurse.
I'll be all right. Thanks anyway.

How's the lymph count?

It's better, much better.

In fact, it's falling slowly.

Good.

We're gonna make it.

Ok. So, uh...

when do us here on the outside

really get to know
what's going on in there?

It won't be long now.

How are we doing?

Well, the pneumonia's finally stable.

No improvement but at least, he's no worse.

Philip, I think we may have a chance.

You're late for the injection, nurse.
I was about to look for you.

Now get going.

Sorry, doctor. I'll get right to it.

Oh!

What the hell is the matter with you, moss?

Get back to bed.

You jive.

Holy shit!

Aagh!

Uhh!

Are you crazy?
You'll never get outta here.

That's what you think.

Just take it easy, lady.
I'm not gonna hurt you.

Run, you idiot! Get help!

Help!

Help! Shut up.

Hold it, everybody!

Hold it right there.

Will somebody do something!

Now, I don't wanna hurt nobody,

but I will if I have to.

You, soul brother, you got a car?

Yeah. Why?

You're now the chauffeur.

Let's go.

But my keys are in my coat in the closet.

Well, let's get 'em.
Let's go! Let's go!

And the rest of you folks,

you just stay inside till we're gone

and nobody's gonna get hurt.

Get in the car! You drive.

Jack, come with me. Call the police.

We'll keep track of them.

Come on, Jack!

Williams, stop this car immediately!

By helping him you're making
yourself an accomplice.

Why don't you shut up!

Hey, that's telling him, man.

I should have known your
kind stick together.

You a doctor? Yeah.

How good a doctor are you?

What do you mean by that?

You done an operation before
on a patient that lived?

So far, so good.

Then how about you talking
ol' happy face off me here?

Williams,

turn this car around immediately. Now!

If you don't do it,

then I get rid of him my way.

Williams.

That'd be about as smart
as you jumping out of this car.

How is that?

I mean that if you kill
him, you'll kill yourself.

The only way to eliminate his head and live

is through surgery.

Ok.

We'll just have to figure out a way
to do it right, then.

There they are.

Thank god you're slowing down.

Well, we don't want
to catch them.

We just want to keep them in sight.

If we get into traffic,

there may be a police car
around somewhere.

There's a car following us.
Step on the gas.

I'm doing the best I can on this road.

You're gonna get us all killed.

There's a police car up ahead of us.

There's the police.

Hey!

You looking for Jack moss?
You just passed him in a 1969 yellow ford,

about 10 seconds away.

They're gonna be coming back soon.

Hit the brakes.

Oh, my god!

Move over!

You're a passenger now.
I'm driving.

It's them. They turned around.

They turned around.

I think we'll let the police handle this.

Man, this car's a real dud.

I don't often use it to
escape from the police.

Police are gaining on us...

but they're not gonna get us, man.

I'm gonna lose 'em.

They're shooting at us!

Stop this car, you black bastard!
Stop it!

Whatever you say, baby.

Ha! No way they gonna get me, man.

This is 22 charlie to headquarters. Over.

Roger, 22. This is headquarters.

We are inoperative.

Lost suspects vicinity ridge route 4
and compton place.

Request assistance.

What kind of assistance do you require, 22?

Well, a tow truck would be nice.

Well, are you gonna help me or not?

I told you, I haven't decided yet.

Listen man I know the jury the d.a.
and the papers all say I'm guilty,

but big Jack knows the truth.

Well, big Jack better stop this insanity

and give himself up
before we're all killed.

What's this "we" stuff?

They're not after you. They're after me.

So I'll do the thinking.

You said back there that you were innocent.

I am.

They all say that.

Sure they do, but, in my case
it happens to be true.

Heck, I didn't know you guys
were gonna do this to me.

I figured I was gonna die anyway,
so what the hell.

They transplant something from my body

makes a kid live,

that's good.

But I had no idea
you was gonna do this.

Anyway, I'm innocent,
and I'm gonna prove it.

So, how about it?

I told you, I haven't decided yet.

You mean you're actually considering
helping this escaped murderer?

Murderer?

You're the murderer,
trying to cut off my head.

That's different.

Funny how it becomes different

when you're talking about your own head.

What is it?

We obviously have a flat.

You gonna stay with me, doc?

Do I have a choice?

Nope.

At least not right now.
Let's go.

This is 2-19 to headquarters.

We'll rest here till dark.

Then we'll make it over to my girl's house.

The police may be looking for you there.

It's cool,

'cause they don't know where she live.

May I have your attention, please,
ground control.

We're going to move out across ridge 4.

Please spread out.

Follow us in a line,

and we'll see if we can
help you spot him.

Let's go.

So how did it happened.

What?

How'd you wind up on death row?

Oh,

a cop got killed with a gun
I used to own a few years back.

If you didn't do it,
didn't you have an alibi?

Willie thompson.

Well, who's that?

Crazy guy I used to know.

Came knocking on my door
a few days before I got picked up.

He'd pulled a job and the police
had gotten a make on him.

So... he needed a place to hide out.

It's interesting,

how criminals
always seek out other criminals.

Man, I ain't no criminal.

Of course you're not.

Wait, hold on, doctor.

Go ahead. Now, what happened then?

Well, the night the cop got killed,

willie and I stayed at my place.

The next morning I went to
the store to get some food,

they arrested me.

When willie heard I'd been picked up,

he disappeared like a ghost, man.

And neither you nor the police

have been able
to find him since, have you?

Nope.

But we will.

It's just a matter of time.

Psst!

Williams,

I got a proposition for you.

This transplant has made medical history.

Now, we should work together.

Just you and me.

You and me?

Look, you work with me on this,

and I'll make it up to you.

Just you and me.

We'll take all the credit
for what we've done here.

What about Dr. Desmond?

Philip?

Oh, he's an excellent surgeon,

but I see a more promising future with you.

You actually feel that I could take credit

for something with which
I had very little to do?

I don't understand you.

The reason you don't understand, doctor,

is because you're a bigot.

A bigot of the highest caliber.

And because of that,

you have underestimated
me and my intelligence.

Maybe I said it badly.

I appreciate your intelligence.

But we're expanding
the operational facilities,

with a much larger lab contingency,

and I need a man like you
to head that department.

And in order to win all that
great acclaim and prestige,

all I have to do

is help you cut off his head.

This is chopper 2-9er-2 to ground control.

Have lost suspect in the
vicinity of hill 14.

Recommend you proceed
immediately to this area.

We got to get out of here fast!

Let's go.

Hey, w-w-wait a minute, man uh...

look, before I get killed,
I'll make a deal with you.

You put that thing away,
and I'll stick with you, OK?

Deal. Let's go.

Ready?

You're gonna get us all killed!

All right, let's go!

Are you out of your mind?

I'm the one that'll get us out of here.

Not this way you won't!

You idiot!

I hope you know what you're doing!

Hold on! We're gonna get fancy!

Yahoo!

This is chopper 2-9er-2
to car 7-4.

7-4.

Suspect Jack moss, is now
on the saddleback race course

approximately 1 1/2 miles due south
of your present roadblock position.

We are returning to base and will advise
unit control to surround the area.

10-4.

Will you please stop this infernal machine!

Oh, just shut up!

Harry, Sam,

check the back of the house.

Come on, will.

I know, I know, Mitch.

But it's not as bad as it sounds.

Look, Mitch, the police are here.

Can I call you back when I find out
some more information?

Yeah, my god, Phil.

Do you have any conception
of what this means?

We talked about secrecy and...
and public opinion.

This is incredible!

Mitch, I understand,
but we're doing everything possible.

It's not as bad as it sounds.

Phil, a murderer is on the
loose because of my decision.

The press is saying

that you've turned him
into a two-headed monster.

I've committed political suicide!

And you say it's not as bad as it sounds.

Mitch, I'll... I'll have
to get back to you.

It's not as bad as it sounds.

I'll get you.

We'll never get through this alive!

This is Baker 22.

Head him off at the south end of the field.

You black bastard.

Oh, my god!

You OK, Harry?

I think I broke my arm.

I told you to keep
that seat belt fastened.

Harry...

stick your head out the window
and see if any more is coming.

Car 88 car 88.

I got him coming around circle pass.
You come in from the other direction.

10-4. we've got him now.

Aah!

Aah!

Who is it?

Who is it?

It's me, baby, big Jack.

It's all right, honey.
I'm not going to hurt you.

You get into more shit.

They were talking about
this on the television,

but I had no idea...

Are you all right?

I'm fine.

How about a kiss?

Honey... um...

I... I know you don't like
to answer a lot of questions, but...

but how did that happen?

Oh, I'll tell you about that later.

This is Max, he's a doctor.

Nice to meet you.

Well, does he talk?

Sure he does.

Don't touch me!

See? Works every time.

This is fred.
He's a doctor, too.

Hello.

Honey, I was wondering, um...

do you have two of anything else?

Good evening, ladies and gentlemen,
this is Dick Whittington.

At the top of the news tonight

is certainly one of the
most bizarre stories

this reporter has ever heard.

But it has been reported

by several confirmed eyewitnesses

that a two-headed monster
has been seen.

Police have issued an all-points bulletin.

Police and state officials

are also investigating the
mysterious disappearance

of condemned murderer Jack moss,

who last month donated his body
to medical science.

How this situation came about
is still not known.

Earlier at his home this
morning, we interviewed,

or should I say,
we attempted to interview.

Dr. philip Desmond,

the acting chief of the
Kirshner transplant foundation.

And here is that interview.

Dr. Desmond,

what kind of an experiment
was performed on Jack moss?

It was not an experiment,
it was an operation.

What can you tell us
about the two-headed man?

No further comments.

It was a transplant operation,
wasn't it, doctor?

Look, gentlemen,

the foundation in a few days will issue
a formal statement.

Now, excuse me.

Level with us, doctor.

Have you created a monster?

Aw, come on, doc,

give us a break.

What are you trying to hide, anyway?

And as you can see,
still no answers.

But, this is known...

a two-headed man has been seen,

and it is suspected that
condemned murderer Jack moss

is one of those two heads.

Police have reported that
their switchboards are jammed

with calls from an alarmed
and panicked public.

And we'll be right back after this
important commercial message.

You get some sleep, baby.

I'll wake you when dinner's ready.

Why don't you stay here
for a little while?

Oh, come on, honey,
I got to start dinner.

You don't have to start now.
Why don't you do it later?

Come on, Jack, uh...

is he bothering you?

I'll cover his head with a pillow case.

You must be joking.

Is that all you people
ever think about?

It's no use, honey.

Maybe when I get used to it.

Now you know, you got to go.

So what's gonna happen to Jack?

What about that other head?

I don't know yet.

Um...

Jack tells me that you're trying to

help him locate his witness.

That's right.

His name is willie thompson.

We tracked him down once
in Nashville, but...

he took off before we could talk to him.

You say "we."

does that mean
you have a detective agency on it?

Mm-hmm.

Then you really believe that he's innocent.

Well, if I didn't, would I spend
all this time and money?

I don't know.

Look,

Jack was railroaded because the cops
didn't have any other leads.

The only crime Jack ever committed

was letting willie hide out
at his place.

The only problem is,
that's Jack's story, too.

Listen, it's also
willie thompson's story.

I talked to willie before he took off,

once he heard the cops had picked up Jack.

He thought the cops
were getting too close,

so he said he was sorry
he got Jack into trouble

and took off.

And when I told them that in court,

they said it was hearsay.

So what about you?
Why are you here?

Jack wants me to help him.

Well, are you?

Well...

the more I hear,
the more I think I will.

That's good.

Because he certainly doesn't deserve
what he's getting.

Come on. You can help me
clean these greens.

Anyway...

I didn't uh, I didn't kill nobody,

and now I got
a second chance to prove it.

And you're gonna get us
both killed trying it.

That's great logic.

Here, man, have some pork chop...

oh, take it away.
I can't stand that garbage.

What's the matter, baby,
don't you dig soul food?

What have you got for dessert,
watermelon?

What do y'all think about having

fried possum and chitterlings
for supper, tonight?

Yes, sir. ha!

Anyway doctor,
you don't have to worry about eatin',

'cause I'm gonna take care of that.

After all, it's my stomach.

And after supper, we can all sit around
and sing spirituals.

Could I have a cigarette?

Oh, sure, honey.

Jack.

Lila was telling me
about willie thompson.

Same think I told you, right?

Right. Seems like the court
did give you a raw deal.

Hey man, don't be smokin'
while I'm eatin'.

Doc.

How difficult would it be

to remove mr. Personality
from of Jack's back?

Without the team of surgeons

and the proper facilities,
absolutely impossible.

Oh, come on now, doctor.

We both know better than that.

What do you mean?

I mean that placing your head
on Jack's body

must have been quite a task,

but the removal process is quite different,
isn't it, doc?

In fact,

one might consider it

merely a basic amputation.

You mean...

you mean you could cut him
off of Jack's back by yourself?

Yes, that's right.

If there's someplace where we can find
the right drugs and...

surgical equipment...

we could do it right here.

And you're gonna help me?

Yes.

I think I will.

Williams,

if you cut off my head,
that will be murder.

But it's OK for you to cut off my head,
is that right?

Williams, I'm warning you...

Listen Kirshner,

I've heard enough to convince me
that this man is innocent...

and that you have no right to his body.

Then you're gonna help me?

Yes.

Honey, can we borrow your car?

Why, you idiot,

you do this, you'll be the same as he is,
a murderer.

Boys, boys, boys, don't argue.

It's all settled.

Dr. Max has got to go.

Hold it. Hold it.

Do you think there are
any guards in here?

How am I supposed to know?

Did you bring your gun with you?

Tsk. I left it at lila's.

Are you sure you've ever done
anything like this before?

Not even in your apprenticeship?

Let's go.

This is it.

Hey!

What's goin' on here?

Hey, what's happenin'?

Jack.

He's taking control of your body.

Cut it out, man!

Doctor help me, doctor! Help me!

Uhh!

Now...

now it's your turn.

Oh, this is Dr. Kirshner.

May I speak to Dr. Desmond, please?

Max, where are you?

Philip, can you talk?

Yes, Max, I can talk.

Well, listen carefully.

I haven't got much time.

I want you, Smith, and Patricia.

To prepare for the removal
of the other head.

Max, no, no, no.

The place is crawling with police.

They want moss dead.

Now, you don't stand a chance
of getting in here.

I see.

All right.

I'll have to handle it myself.

Max, listen to me!

All I've done is listen.

Now, this is basically
a very simple operation.

And I think I can do it myself.

I'll contact you when I'm able.

...abrasions,

several broken arms, one broken leg,

and numerous bruises and broken ribs.

All of the officers involved
appear to be in good health.

The chase, which took place
in a deserted field

near the city of ackersfield,

resulted in the total demolition

of 14 police vehicles.

We were able to interview
lieutenant J.J. Hinesacker

who led the chase.

- I'll get him!
- I'll get the...

Thank you for those words of encouragement,
lieutenant Hinesacker.

And now to our sports desk.

Lila?

This is Dr. Williams.

Kirshner has taken control of the body
and has gotten away.

There are only 2 places he could have gone

and I don't think he'll try the hospital.

Can you borrow a car?

Ok, pick me up on the corner
of Washington and J

as soon as possible.

Ok?

All right.

Philip, what is it?

I just talked to Max.

I don't know what's going on but,

I want to be able to operate
within a moment's notice.

But we can't work here.

The police.

I know. I know.

Maybe they'll catch him alive.

In that case, we'll be ready.

Tell Dr. Smith to uh, stand by.

Now, you don't want to do that, doctor.

You'd be killing an innocent man.

Hello.

Doctor?

You had better get over to Dr.
Kirshner's house as soon as possible.

He needs your help.

Who is this?

Hello?

Philip...

Philip...

get me another body.

Please.
