Mission: Impossible (1966–1973): Season 3, Episode 11 - The Freeze - full transcript
Raymond Barret, was the mastermind behind the robbery of an armored truck several years ago. He has changed his identity and is now serving a lesser charge in a federal prison, waiting out the statute of limitations. When he's released he'll be able to recover the stolen cash. The IMF convinces Barret that he's suffering from a terminal illness. In desperation he turns to a doctor of cryogenics (Phelps) and blackmails him into freezing him until a cure can be found. Barret wakes up in "the future" but quickly discovers the ruse. Even though everything seems to have gone wrong, it's all part of the elaborate plan to capture Barret and his partners.
[ "MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE" THEME
PLAYS ]
Man: GOOD MORNING, MR. PHELPS.
THE MAN YOU'RE LOOKING AT
IS RAYMOND BARRET,
WHO IS CURRENTLY SERVING
A FIVE-YEAR SENTENCE
IN THE STATE PENITENTIARY.
WE HAVE JUST LEARNED
THROUGH HIS CELLMATE MAX DAVIS
THAT BARRET
IS ACTUALLY ALBERT JENKINS,
WHO MASTERMINDED THE OAKDALE
ARMORED CAR ROBBERY
FIVE YEARS AGO,
DOUBLE-CROSSED HIS ASSOCIATES,
AND HID THE $10 MILLION TAKE.
BY CLEVERLY ALLOWING HIMSELF
TO BE CAUGHT AND CONVICTED
AS "RAYMOND BARRET"
OF A BURGLARY CHARGE
HE DID NOT COMMIT,
HE HOPED TO WAIT OUT
THE STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS
ON THE ROBBERY.
THAT STATUTE
EXPIRES IN TWO DAYS.
WHEN BARRET IS RELEASED
FROM PRISON IN A FEW MONTHS,
HE WILL BE ABLE TO COLLECT
THE $10 MILLION SCOT-FREE.
YOUR MISSION, JIM,
SHOULD YOU DECIDE TO ACCEPT IT,
IS TO BRING BARRET TO JUSTICE
AND RECOVER THE MONEY.
AS ALWAYS, SHOULD YOU
OR ANY OF YOUR I.M. FORCE
BE CAUGHT OR KILLED,
THE SECRETARY WILL DISAVOW
ANY KNOWLEDGE OF YOUR ACTIONS.
THIS TAPE WILL SELF-DESTRUCT
IN FIVE SECONDS.
GOOD LUCK, JIM.
THE MAN YOU'VE DESCRIBED IS
HARDLY THE RAYMOND BARRET
I'VE KNOWN
FOR THE PAST FIVE YEARS.
HE WAS MY ORDERLY AT
THE PRISON FOR ALMOST THREE.
I WOULD NEVER HAVE SUSPECTED
THAT HE'S WHAT YOU SAY HE IS.
BELIEVE ME, DR. BOWMAN,
IT'S ALL IN AN ACT.
BARRET IS COLDBLOODED,
RUTHLESS, A KILLER.
JIM, DOES A REDUCTION
IN SENTENCE
MEAN WE CAN TRUST DAVIS?
YES -- OR AT LEAST ENOUGH
TO GUARANTEE
THAT THERE
WON'T BE A DOUBLE CROSS.
NOW, THESE ARE THE OTHER
TWO MEMBERS OF THE GANG --
SAMMY GILBERT...
DAVID SINGLETON.
THEY'LL BE MOVING IN ON US
AT JUST ABOUT THE TIME
WE NEED THEM.
HOW'S IT COMING,
BARNEY?
FINE, JIM.
THE ACTUAL ONE
HASN'T BEEN ASSEMBLED YET,
BUT WE HAVE THE PROCEDURE
DOWN PAT.
YOU MEAN "DOWN COLD."
BREATHE IN...
[ INHALES ]
NOW LET IT OUT.
[ EXHALES ]
HEY, DOC,
HOW COME WE'RE PUTTING ME
THROUGH THE WRINGER AGAIN?
I THOUGHT WE WENT THIS ROUTE
A FEW MONTHS BACK.
YOUR SENTENCE
ENDS IN 60 DAYS, RAYMOND.
IT'S STANDARD OPERATING
PROCEDURE TO GIVE A PRISONER
A PHYSICAL
JUST PRIOR TO HIS RELEASE.
OH, I GET YOU.
THEY DON'T WANT ANY SICK EX-CONS
WALKING THE STREET.
MIGHT GIVE THE PLACE
A BAD NAME, HUH?
[ CHUCKLES ]
Man on intercom:
Dr. Bowman,
Dr. Kingsley
is here to see you.
[ SIGHS ]
WE'LL FINISH
THE EXAMINATION IN A MINUTE.
GOOD MORNING, KINGSLEY.
GOOD MORNING, DR. BOWMAN.
I HAVE
ALL THE PAPERS HERE --
THE DOCUMENTS FOR MYERS'
FILE SIGNATURE, THE WAIVER,
LIABILITY CONTRACT.
Bowman:
BEFORE YOU GO ANY FURTHER,
THERE'S SOMETHING
I SHOULD TELL YOU.
HE'S CHANGED HIS MIND.
WHAT DO YOU MEAN?
WELL, HE DOESN'T WANT
TO BE FROZEN.
I REALIZE THIS IS A BLOW
TO YOU --
HE CAN'T DO THAT TO ME.
DOESN'T HE REALIZE HOW
MANY MONTHS IT'S TAKEN
TO SET THIS UP?!
I KNOW THE PROBLEMS
INVOLVED, DR. KINGSLEY,
IN GETTING BODIES
TO YOUR RESEARCH.
BUT HE'S SERVING
A LIFE SENTENCE.
IF YOU FROZE HIM,
AND HE WAS
BROUGHT BACK TO LIFE
AFTER A CURE HAD BEEN FOUND
FOR HIS DISEASE,
HE'D STILL HAVE TO CONTINUE
SERVING HIS LIFE SENTENCE.
BUT WHAT ABOUT
MY RESEARCH?
CAN'T HE UNDERSTAND HOW THIS
COULD HELP SCIENCE IMMENSELY?
THIS IS NO TIME TO CONSIDER
SELFISH PERSONAL MOTIVES.
I WANT TO TALK TO HIM.
I KNOW I CAN CONVINCE HIM.
I SUGGEST THAT YOU TRY
TO SEE THE HUMAN ASPECT
OF THE SITUATION,
KINGSLEY.
GOOD DAY, DOCTOR.
[ DOOR CLOSES ]
IS HE FOR REAL?
TRYING TO BRING PEOPLE
BACK TO LIFE?
THAT GUY MUST BE FLIPPED!
IT IS THEORETICALLY
POSSIBLE.
ONLY IT WILL TAKE
SEVERAL YEARS OF RESEARCH
AND EXPERIMENTING
TO ACCOMPLISH IT.
MEANWHILE, HE'S GOTTA
HAVE GUINEA PIGS LIKE MYERS
FOR HIS BASEMENT
EXPERIMENTS.
NOW I FEEL SORRY
FOR THE GOOD DOCTOR.
HE'S SICK.
YEAH, WELL, THAT'S IT,
RAYMOND.
I'LL HAVE THE RESULTS
FOR YOU LATER IN THE DAY.
OKAY, YOU KNOW
WHERE YOU CAN REACH ME.
[ BUZZES ]
Man: Raymond Barret
is here to see you, doctor.
SEND HIM IN, PLEASE.
SIT DOWN, RAYMOND.
EVERYTHING
CHECK OUT OKAY, DOC?
[ SIGHS ]
WELL, THERE'S THIS
DISEASE, ENTHIMITIS.
ARE YOU FAMILIAR WITH IT?
WHAT'S THAT -- SOME FANCY NAME
FOR A HANGNAIL?
OH, I WISH IT WERE.
I'M AFRAID THIS IS
A VERY SERIOUS DISEASE.
HOW SERIOUS?
WELL, RAYMOND,
WE DON'T KNOW TOO MUCH
ABOUT IT MEDICALLY --
HOW IT IS CAUSED,
OR WHY IT SPREADS.
IT'S A DISEASE
THE AFFECTS THE SPINE.
IT CAUSES A LESION.
THERE ARE EXPERIMENTAL
CURES BEING CONDUCTED
AND RESEARCHED RIGHT NOW.
ARE YOU TRYING TO TELL ME
THERE IS NO CURE?!
WELL, I'M NOT IN
A POSITION TO SAY, RAYMOND.
I-I REALLY DON'T KNOW.
HOW LONG HAVE I HAD IT?
A MONTH.
IS IT, UH, TERMINAL?
I-I, UH, RAYMOND,
I'M NOT A SPECIALIST.
SO I WANT YOU TO GO
AND SEE ONE --
A DR. MOORE.
NOW MAYBE
HE CAN HELP YOU.
WHEN?
WELL, I'VE SPOKEN
TO THE WARDEN
AND TO THE GOVERNOR.
AND BECAUSE
OF YOUR EXCELLENT RECORD
AND THE ENTHIMITIS,
THEY'VE GIVEN YOU
A SPECIAL RELEASE.
SO YOU'RE FREE TO GO
AND SEE HIM THIS AFTERNOON.
DOCTOR, I GET OUT OF HERE
IN TWO MONTHS.
AND WHAT
YOU'RE TELLING ME --
IF I STAY,
I GO OUT IN A BOX?
I GOT LESS THAN TWO MONTHS,
RIGHT?!
I'M NOT THE EXPERT.
THIS IS
DR. MOORE'S ADDRESS.
MAYBE HE CAN HELP YOU.
SURE IS A LOUSY BREAK,
MAN.
WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO
WHEN YOU GET OUT?
I'M GONNA GO OUT AND LIVE.
NOW WILL YOU LEAVE ME ALONE,
DAVIS?!
GUARD!
DIDN'T MEAN TO BUG YOU.
JUST TRYING TO HELP,
THAT'S ALL.
HEY, MAYBE THAT DR. MOORE,
MAYBE HE CAN HELP YOU.
YOU GONNA GO SEE HIM?
DID YOU GET THE WORD --
THE BANK ACCOUNT
WAS SET UP FOR YOU?
YEAH.
THEN TALK.
YOUR FRIEND DOESN'T GO
BY THE NAME
OF "JENKINS" ANYMORE.
IT'S "BARRET."
WHERE IS HE?
HE WAS HERE IN PRISON.
WAS?
YEAH,
H-HE LEFT TODAY.
GOT A SPECIAL RELEASE.
HE'S DYING.
NO...
NO, HE CAN'T DIE
BEFORE I GET TO HIM.
WHERE'S HE GOING?
I THINK HE'S GOING
TO SOME SPECIALIST.
DR. MOORE WILL BE WITH YOU
IN A MOMENT.
PLEASE REMOVE YOUR JACKET
AND SHIRT.
OH...
MR. BARRET, HOW DO YOU DO?
I'M DOCTOR MOORE.
I'VE ALREADY TALKED
WITH DR. BOWMAN,
AND HE SENT OVER YOUR
X-RAYS AND YOUR OTHER TESTS.
PLEASE SIT DOWN.
PLEASE TURN AROUND.
HOW MUCH TIME WE GOT,
BARNEY?
TILL 3:00.
IT'S GONNA CUT IT
PRETTY CLOSE.
OH, YOU CAN GET DRESSED.
DR. BOWMAN
SAID YOU COULD HELP ME.
HE SAID YOU HAD A CURE.
WELL,
I-I'M WORKING ON ONE.
OF COURSE, IT'S STILL
IN THE EXPERIMENTAL STAGE.
BUT YOU HAVE HOPE?
WELL, IT'S HARD TO TELL
WITH THESE THINGS.
WHAT I'D LIKE TO SEE
RIGHT NOW
IS A MAJOR BREAKTHROUGH
OR TWO --
TO GIVE ME THE SENSE THAT
I'M ON THE RIGHT TRACK.
WHEN DO YOU
EXPECT THESE BREAKTHROUGHS?
OH, I'D SAY THREE,
POSSIBLY FOUR YEARS.
FOUR YEARS?
LOOK, I WANT TO TAKE
THE CURE NOW.
I'M WILLING
TO TAKE THE GAMBLE.
WELL, I'M NOT.
I MIGHT KILL YOU.
LOOK,
I'M GONNA DIE ANYWAY.
IF I GIVE YOU
MY PERMISSION -- WHAT?
I'M TERRIBLY SORRY, MR. BARRET,
BUT YOU SEE, THERE'S SUCH
A THING AS MALPRACTICE.
HOWEVER...
YEAH?
I WOULD GREATLY APPRECIATE
IT IF YOU GAVE ME PERMISSION
TO STUDY THE PROGRESS
OF YOUR DISEASE MORE CLOSELY.
IT WOULD HELP GREATLY
WITH MY RESEARCH.
YOU WOULD HAVE TO COME HERE
ONCE OR TWICE EACH WEEK.
BUT YOU WOULD ANYWAY,
BECAUSE OF THE SHOTS.
SHOTS? WHAT FOR?
WELL, THERE MAY BE
SOME DISCOMFORT
FROM TIME TO TIME.
BY THE WAY,
TELL ME FOR THE FORMS --
WHO'S YOUR NEXT OF KIN?
THERE ISN'T ANY.
OH, THEN YOU'LL HAVE TO FILL
OUT THE DOCUMENTS YOURSELF.
DOCUMENTS?
WELL, YES, UH,
YOU'LL FIND
THERE'S ALWAYS LEGALITY
IN SUCH THINGS.
SUCH AS?
I WOULD LIKE VERY MUCH
TO HAVE YOUR PERMISSION
TO PERFORM THE AUTOPSY.
WHY?
MORE RESEARCH?
WELL, IT MIGHT BE
INSTRUMENTAL
IN THE REALIZATION
OF A CURE FOR OTHERS.
I THINK I'LL ROT
IN ONE PIECE, DOCTOR.
I WOULDN'T CONSIDER THAT
A SOLUTION...
FREEZING, HMM?
WELL, OF COURSE, DOCTOR.
IF I WAS FROZEN,
YOU WOULDN'T BE ABLE
TO DISSECT ME
IN YOUR AUTOPSY, WOULD YOU?
[ DOOR CLOSES ]
I'M SUPPOSED TO SCHEDULE
SOME APPOINTMENTS FOR YOU,
MR. BARRET.
WHEN WOULD BE THE BEST TIME
FOR YOU TO COME IN?
SO THERE HAVE REALLY BEEN
SEVERAL MAJOR IMPROVEMENTS
AND ADVANCES IN TECHNIQUE
IN THE LAST TWO YEARS.
UH, I HAVE
SOME PAMPHLETS HERE
THAT YOU
MIGHT BE INTERESTED IN.
LOOK AT THOSE...THIS IS
AN ARTICLE BY ANOTHER DOCTOR
WHO'S INVOLVED IN THE WORK.
HERE ARE OTHER ARTICLES THAT
I THINK WOULD INTEREST YOU --
ALL RIGHT, ALL RIGHT.
YOU SOLD ME.
WELL, UH,
WHEN MAY WE EXPECT THE --
TWO MONTHS.
WELL, THAT WILL GIVE US
TIME THAT WE NEED
TO MAKE ALL
THE NECESSARY ARRANGEMENTS.
YEAH, YEAH, I KNOW --
FORMS TO BE FILLED OUT,
LEGAL DOCUMENTS TO BE SIGNED.
YES, EXACTLY.
WELL, THEN, UM, THEN JUST
A FEW PRELIMINARY QUESTIONS.
NOW, THE DISEASE
YOU'RE SUFFERING FROM IS?
ENTHIMITIS.
ENTHIMITIS.
OH, I SEE.
WHAT IS IT NOW?
WELL, NOTHING.
IT'S JUST THAT, UH --
WELL, YOU CAN FREEZE ME,
CAN'T YOU?!
YES, I CAN FREEZE YOU,
BUT, YOU SEE,
ENTHIMITIS IS A DISEASE
OF THE SPINE --
I KNOW THAT!
WELL, THAT'S WHERE
IT BEGINS.
IN ITS LATER STAGES,
IT CLAIMS SEVERAL VITAL
BODY ORGANS, MR. BARRET.
WHAT ARE YOU GETTIN' AT?
SIMPLY THIS -- I...
I CANNOT FREEZE YOU
AND BRING YOU BACK.
IT WOULD BE TOO MANY
TRANSPLANTS TO PERFORM.
I'M SORRY.
THESE, UH, THESE ORGANS --
THEY BEEN AFFECTED YET?
HOW LONG
HAVE YOU HAD THE DISEASE?
A MONTH.
NO, NO. IT WOULD STILL BE
LOCATED IN THE SPINE.
WELL, GOOD.
THEN DO IT TO ME NOW.
YOU CAN'T BE SERIOUS.
I CAN'T FREEZE YOU
WHILE YOU'RE ALIVE.
THAT'S NOT LEGAL.
LEGALITIES
DON'T BOTHER ME, DOCTOR.
WELL, YOU'RE ASKING ME
IN EFFECT --
SHUT UP!
NOW YOU NEED A BODY.
OKAY, YOU GOT ONE!
YES, BUT --
SHUT UP!
NOW NOBODY EVER NEED KNOW
ABOUT IT.
IT'S NO SKIN
OFF OF YOUR NOSE.
THE RISK IS ENTIRELY MINE.
NOW WHAT DO YOU SAY,
DOCTOR?
WELL, THE ANSWER
STILL HAS TO BE "NO."
MR. BARRET, I KNOW WHAT
YOU MUST BE GOING THROUGH,
BUT I--I CAN'T DO
WHAT YOU ASK.
[ SLAMS DESK ]
YOU'RE BACKING THE WRONG
MAN INTO A CORNER, DOCTOR!
Woman on intercom:
Doctor?
YES?
MR. HOLLISTER WOULD LIKE
TO SPEAK TO YOU, DOCTOR.
EXCUSE ME.
Yes?
No. I've told you
never to call me here,
now what is --
No, not so soon
after the last time, I --
No!
All right...
All right, I'll have it.
15 minutes.
[ DOOR CLOSES ]
[ MOTOR HUMS ]
[ LOCK CLICKS ]
[ HISSING ]
MR. BARRET, IF THIS IS
TO BE A CONTINUATION
OF OUR PREVIOUS DISCUSSION,
I --
OPEN IT!
WHERE DID YOU GET THIS?
NEVER MIND. NOW YOU KNOW
WHAT I WANT, DOCTOR.
I CAN'T!
IT'S NOT LEGAL!
YOU DID IT TO YOUR WIFE.
SHE WAS IN...SUCH PAIN,
SUCH TERRIBLE PAIN.
I HAD NO CHOICE
BUT TO PUT HER TO SLEEP
AND FREEZE HER.
AFTER READING
WHAT HAPPENED TO HER,
I'M SURPRISED YOU DON'T
HAVE DOUBTS ABOUT FREEZING.
AS YOU SAID, YOU'VE IMPROVED
YOUR EQUIPMENT SINCE THEN.
BESIDES, I HAVEN'T GOT
ANYTHING TO LOSE.
NO!
NO, I WON'T DO IT AGAIN!
I WON'T!
YES, YOU WILL.
I AIN'T GOT TIME
FOR BLUFFS, DOCTOR,
THIS IS GOING STRAIGHT
TO THE POLICE
AND THE NEWSPAPERS.
THINK ABOUT IT --
NO MORE RESEARCH,
NO EXPERIMENTS,
NO NOTHIN'!
ALL RIGHT.
NOW DON'T GET ANY IDEAS
ABOUT KEEPING ME ON ICE.
I MADE COPIES OF THOSE.
THEY'RE WITH A LAWYER.
WHEN THEY FIND THE CURE
FOR ENTHIMITIS,
IF I'M NOT BROUGHT BACK,
THEY GO STRAIGHT
TO THE POLICE.
YOU DON'T THINK
I'D INTENTIONALLY
MURDER YOU, DO YOU?
JUST KEEPING YOU HONEST,
DOCTOR.
ALL RIGHT,
LET'S GET STARTED.
WHAT'S IT GONNA BE LIKE?
SLEEP...VERY LONG SLEEP.
AM I GONNA FEEL ANYTHING?
NO,
YOU WON'T FEEL THE COLD.
THIS WILL PUT YOU
IN A COMA.
THEN I'LL FREEZE YOU.
YOU SURE
YOU WANT TO DO THIS?
[ HISSING ]
HE'LL BE COMING AROUND
IN A FEW MINUTES.
WE'LL HAVE TO PUSH HIM.
WE HAVE
LESS THAN THREE HOURS.
[ JET PACK HUMS ]
[ WHOOPING ]
[ LAUGHS ]
[ TELEVISION SHUTS OFF ]
MR. BARRET,
I'LL BE VERY PLEASED
TO ANSWER QUESTIONS
IN JUST A MOMENT.
BUT FIRST...
HOLD YOUR HEAD STILL.
TURN YOUR HEAD.
HOLD IT STILL.
THAT'S FINE.
5cc OF CORTISONE,
NURSE.
YES, MR. BARRET, YOU'VE
BEEN BROUGHT BACK TO LIFE.
HEY, DON'T I REMEMBER
YOU FROM SOMEPLACE?
YES.
A LONG TIME AGO.
YEAH. YOU WERE THE GUY WHO
WAS LOOKING FOR THE CURE.
THAT'S RIGHT, MR. BARRET.
I FOUND IT, TOO.
IT TOOK ME 11 YEARS.
11 YEARS.
THIS MUST BE --
1980.
MAY 19, TO BE EXACT.
1980!
WHAT'S WRONG?
WELL, WHEN YOU WERE TAKEN
OUT OF THE DEEP FREEZE,
MR. BARRET, THE ONLY THING
AFFECTED WAS YOUR SPINE.
THERE SHOULD HAVE BEEN
OTHER ORGANS
THAT WERE AFFECTED.
WHY WEREN'T THEY, THEN?
THAT'S WHAT'S PUZZLING.
YOU FIGURE IT OUT, DOCTOR.
I'M NOT A MEDICAL MAN.
HEY,
SPEAKING OF THE FREEZING,
WHAT HAPPENED
TO THAT DR. KINGSLEY?
IS HE STILL AROUND?
I'D LIKE TO THANK HIM.
A VERY UNFORTUNATE THING.
BRILLIANT MAN, KINGSLEY.
HE COMMITTED SUICIDE ABOUT,
OH, IT WAS FIVE YEARS AGO.
SOMETHING TO DO
WITH HIS WIFE,
IF I REMEMBER CORRECTLY.
TOUGH BREAK.
HEY, WHEN DO I
GET OUT OF THIS PLACE?
WE'RE GOING TO KEEP YOU
HERE ANOTHER TWO WEEKS.
WE HAVE A NUMBER OF TESTS
TO RUN ON YOU, MR. BARRET.
I SUGGEST YOU USE THAT TIME
TO LEARN ABOUT THE WORLD
AS IT IS NOW.
IT'S QUITE DIFFERENT.
WE HAVE REGULAR ORIENTATION
COURSES. WE USE A TV PANEL.
YOU'LL FIND IT VERY HELPFUL
IN ADJUSTING.
TO WHAT?
TO WHAT MAKES THE WORLD
RUN TODAY.
AS I REMEMBER IT,
THERE'S ONLY ONE THING
MADE THE WORLD RUN
BACK IN '68 -- MONEY.
AND I'LL BET YOU $1 MILLION
THAT HASN'T CHANGED.
I'M AFRAID
YOU'D LOSE THAT BET.
[ Chuckling ]
HOW'S THAT?
WE NO LONGER USE CURRENCY.
NO MONEY?
NO. IT WAS ALL CALLED BACK
ABOUT SIX YEARS AGO.
WE USE CREDIT CARDS NOW.
IT'S QUITE SATISFACTORY.
COMPUTERS AND MEMORY BANKS
DO ALL THE BOOKKEEPING.
WHAT ABOUT ME?!
I PUT SOME MONEY AWAY
BACK IN '68!
YOU'VE GOT TO RELAX.
RELAX.
IT'S STILL REDEEMABLE
UNTIL 1985.
MR. BARRET, YOU'LL FIND
THERE ARE A LOT OF CHANGES
IN THE WORLD,
AS YOU CAN SEE.
PARTICULARLY,
THE PHYSICAL ENVIRONMENT.
YOU'LL FIND
MOST OF THE THINGS
YOU WERE FAMILIAR WITH
HAVE EITHER BEEN DESTROYED,
ALTERED, OR TORN DOWN.
DESTROYED?!
Yes.
HEY, WAIT A MINUTE!
MR. BARRET,
I HAVE OTHER PATIENTS.
THERE'S A SUBURB NOT FAR
FROM HERE CALLED "LONGVIEW."
IS IT STILL THERE?
LONGVIEW.
I'M AFRAID
I CAN'T TELL YOU THAT.
BUT WHAT YOU CAN DO
IS PICK UP THE TELEPHONE,
PUNCH 198, AND OUR
COMMUNICATION CENTER
WILL ANSWER ANY QUESTION
YOU WANT,
AND FLASH IT
ON THE TELEVISION MONITOR.
YEAH, I'LL DO THAT!
[ DOOR CLOSES ]
MR. BARRET,
IF YOU WANT ANYTHING,
PLEASE USE THE SERVICE
BUTTON ON YOUR BED.
YEAH, WELL HOW COME
THIS DOOR IS LOCKED?
WE WERE ASKED
TO KEEP IT LOCKED.
BY WHO?
THE POLICE
WANT TO QUESTION YOU.
WHAT DO THEY WANT?!
MR. BARRET,
I DO NOT KNOW.
I WAS ONLY TOLD
NOT TO LET YOU
LEAVE THIS HOSPITAL.
NOW PLEASE, LIE DOWN IN BED.
YOU NEED YOUR REST.
POSSIBLY TOMORROW,
IF YOU'RE FEELING BETTER,
YOU CAN TALK TO THEM.
I GOT THE WORD. YOU GOT
SOME MORE INFORMATION.
YEAH.
BARRET'S GOING TO SEE
A DR. KINGSLEY,
493 JACKSON STREET.
HE'S THERE NOW.
YES, SIR,
MAY I HELP YOU?
YEAH, I WANT TO SEE A MAP
OF THE LONGVIEW AREA --
4th AND HYDE.
ONE MOMENT, PLEASE.
I'LL CONNECT YOU
WITH CITY PLANNING.
Rollin: I'M SORRY, SIR.
WE DON'T HAVE
THE INFORMATION YOU WANT.
THERE'S NO 4th AND HYDE
LISTED.
BUT THERE WAS
A 4th AND HYDE.
WAS? WHEN?
1968.
I SEE.
ONE MOMENT, PLEASE.
Is this the area, sir?
YEAH. YEAH, THAT'S IT.
4th AND HYDE.
IT'S BY THE CEMETERY.
THE CEMETERY.
Rollin: The reason
for the confusion
is the street names
have been changed.
For future reference,
it is now "4th and Delaney."
IS THE CEMETERY
STILL THERE?
YES. HOWEVER, THE AREA IS
UNDER TOTAL RECONSTRUCTION.
The work began two days ago
and should be completed
in four months.
GILBERT AND SINGLETON SHOULD
BE ON THEIR WAY BY NOW.
ROLLIN,
YOU CALL THE POLICE.
HAVE THEM READY TO MOVE INTO
LONGVIEW CEMETERY AT 6:00.
[ BUZZ ]
YES, MR. BARRET,
MAY I HELP YOU?
YEAH, UH, I DON'T KNOW
WHAT IT IS,
I THINK MAYBE THOSE, UH,
PILLS YOU'VE BEEN GIVING ME --
MY HEAD IS KILLING ME.
PAIN?
YEAH.
I'LL SPEAK
TO DR. MOORE.
THANKS.
ALMOST 5:30.
ONLY HALF AN HOUR LEFT.
JIM, DO YOU THINK
HE BOUGHT THE DATE?
YES. HE THINKS IT'S
ONE DAY OVER
THE STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS.
HE'S ON HIS WAY,
WILLY.
RIGHT.
RIGHT ON SCHEDULE.
BARRET IS GONE.
HE'S GONE!
WHO ARE YOU?
YOU KINGSLEY?
I'M KINGSLEY.
WHAT IS THIS?!
WHERE'S BARRET?
Gilbert:
THAT'S VERY CLEVER, DOCTOR.
WHERE'S BARRET NOW?
WELL,
WE DON'T KNOW EXACTLY.
BUT, UH, YOU HAVE AN IDEA,
RIGHT?
GENTLEMEN, PERHAPS WE
CAN MAKE A DEAL --
NO...
NO. NO DEALS.
YOU BETTER TAKE US
TO BARRET NOW.
Jim: THE CEMETERY ENTRANCE
IS JUST AHEAD.
TAKE A RIGHT.
ALL RIGHT. WATCH 'EM.
[ GUN COCKS ]
GET UP.
MOVE.
[ GUN COCKS ]
I HAD IT MADE.
I WAS HOME FREE.
NO...
NO, YOU'RE NOT.

INVOLVED, DR. KINGSLEY,
IN GETTING BODIES

ABOUT IT MEDICALLY --

HE CAN HELP YOU.
WHEN?
WELL, I'VE SPOKEN
TO THE WARDEN
AND TO THE GOVERNOR.
AND BECAUSE
OF YOUR EXCELLENT RECORD
AND THE ENTHIMITIS,
THEY'VE GIVEN YOU
A SPECIAL RELEASE.
SO YOU'RE FREE TO GO
AND SEE HIM THIS AFTERNOON.
DOCTOR, I GET OUT OF HERE
IN TWO MONTHS.
AND WHAT
YOU'RE TELLING ME --
IF I STAY,
I GO OUT IN A BOX?
I GOT LESS THAN TWO MONTHS,
RIGHT?!
I'M NOT THE EXPERT.
THIS IS
DR. MOORE'S ADDRESS.
MAYBE HE CAN HELP YOU.
SURE IS A LOUSY BREAK,
MAN.
WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO
WHEN YOU GET OUT?
I'M GONNA GO OUT AND LIVE.
NOW WILL YOU LEAVE ME ALONE,
DAVIS?!
GUARD!
DIDN'T MEAN TO BUG YOU.
JUST TRYING TO HELP,
THAT'S ALL.
HEY, MAYBE THAT DR. MOORE,
MAYBE HE CAN HELP YOU.
YOU GONNA GO SEE HIM?
DID YOU GET THE WORD --
THE BANK ACCOUNT
WAS SET UP FOR YOU?
YEAH.
THEN TALK.
YOUR FRIEND DOESN'T GO
BY THE NAME
OF "JENKINS" ANYMORE.
IT'S "BARRET."
WHERE IS HE?
HE WAS HERE IN PRISON.
WAS?
YEAH,
H-HE LEFT TODAY.
GOT A SPECIAL RELEASE.
HE'S DYING.
NO...
NO, HE CAN'T DIE
BEFORE I GET TO HIM.
WHERE'S HE GOING?
I THINK HE'S GOING
TO SOME SPECIALIST.
DR. MOORE WILL BE WITH YOU
IN A MOMENT.
PLEASE REMOVE YOUR JACKET
AND SHIRT.
OH...
MR. BARRET, HOW DO YOU DO?
I'M DOCTOR MOORE.
I'VE ALREADY TALKED
WITH DR. BOWMAN,
AND HE SENT OVER YOUR
X-RAYS AND YOUR OTHER TESTS.
PLEASE SIT DOWN.
PLEASE TURN AROUND.
HOW MUCH TIME WE GOT,
BARNEY?
TILL 3:00.
IT'S GONNA CUT IT
PRETTY CLOSE.
OH, YOU CAN GET DRESSED.
DR. BOWMAN
SAID YOU COULD HELP ME.
HE SAID YOU HAD A CURE.
WELL,
I-I'M WORKING ON ONE.
OF COURSE, IT'S STILL
IN THE EXPERIMENTAL STAGE.
BUT YOU HAVE HOPE?
WELL, IT'S HARD TO TELL
WITH THESE THINGS.
WHAT I'D LIKE TO SEE
RIGHT NOW
IS A MAJOR BREAKTHROUGH
OR TWO --
TO GIVE ME THE SENSE THAT
I'M ON THE RIGHT TRACK.
WHEN DO YOU
EXPECT THESE BREAKTHROUGHS?
OH, I'D SAY THREE,
POSSIBLY FOUR YEARS.
FOUR YEARS?
LOOK, I WANT TO TAKE
THE CURE NOW.
I'M WILLING
TO TAKE THE GAMBLE.
WELL, I'M NOT.
I MIGHT KILL YOU.
LOOK,
I'M GONNA DIE ANYWAY.
IF I GIVE YOU
MY PERMISSION -- WHAT?
I'M TERRIBLY SORRY, MR. BARRET,
BUT YOU SEE, THERE'S SUCH
A THING AS MALPRACTICE.
HOWEVER...
YEAH?
I WOULD GREATLY APPRECIATE
IT IF YOU GAVE ME PERMISSION
TO STUDY THE PROGRESS
OF YOUR DISEASE MORE CLOSELY.
IT WOULD HELP GREATLY
WITH MY RESEARCH.
YOU WOULD HAVE TO COME HERE
ONCE OR TWICE EACH WEEK.
BUT YOU WOULD ANYWAY,
BECAUSE OF THE SHOTS.
SHOTS? WHAT FOR?
WELL, THERE MAY BE
SOME DISCOMFORT
FROM TIME TO TIME.
BY THE WAY,
TELL ME FOR THE FORMS --
WHO'S YOUR NEXT OF KIN?
THERE ISN'T ANY.
OH, THEN YOU'LL HAVE TO FILL
OUT THE DOCUMENTS YOURSELF.
DOCUMENTS?
WELL, YES, UH,
YOU'LL FIND
THERE'S ALWAYS LEGALITY
IN SUCH THINGS.
SUCH AS?
I WOULD LIKE VERY MUCH
TO HAVE YOUR PERMISSION
TO PERFORM THE AUTOPSY.
WHY?
MORE RESEARCH?
WELL, IT MIGHT BE
INSTRUMENTAL
IN THE REALIZATION
OF A CURE FOR OTHERS.
I THINK I'LL ROT
IN ONE PIECE, DOCTOR.
I WOULDN'T CONSIDER THAT
A SOLUTION...
FREEZING, HMM?
WELL, OF COURSE, DOCTOR.
IF I WAS FROZEN,
YOU WOULDN'T BE ABLE
TO DISSECT ME
IN YOUR AUTOPSY, WOULD YOU?
[ DOOR CLOSES ]
I'M SUPPOSED TO SCHEDULE
SOME APPOINTMENTS FOR YOU,
MR. BARRET.
WHEN WOULD BE THE BEST TIME
FOR YOU TO COME IN?
SO THERE HAVE REALLY BEEN
SEVERAL MAJOR IMPROVEMENTS
AND ADVANCES IN TECHNIQUE
IN THE LAST TWO YEARS.
UH, I HAVE
SOME PAMPHLETS HERE
THAT YOU
MIGHT BE INTERESTED IN.
LOOK AT THOSE...THIS IS
AN ARTICLE BY ANOTHER DOCTOR
WHO'S INVOLVED IN THE WORK.
HERE ARE OTHER ARTICLES THAT
I THINK WOULD INTEREST YOU --
ALL RIGHT, ALL RIGHT.
YOU SOLD ME.
WELL, UH,
WHEN MAY WE EXPECT THE --
TWO MONTHS.
WELL, THAT WILL GIVE US
TIME THAT WE NEED
TO MAKE ALL
THE NECESSARY ARRANGEMENTS.
YEAH, YEAH, I KNOW --
FORMS TO BE FILLED OUT,
LEGAL DOCUMENTS TO BE SIGNED.
YES, EXACTLY.
WELL, THEN, UM, THEN JUST
A FEW PRELIMINARY QUESTIONS.
NOW, THE DISEASE
YOU'RE SUFFERING FROM IS?
ENTHIMITIS.
ENTHIMITIS.
OH, I SEE.
WHAT IS IT NOW?
WELL, NOTHING.
IT'S JUST THAT, UH --
WELL, YOU CAN FREEZE ME,
CAN'T YOU?!
YES, I CAN FREEZE YOU,
BUT, YOU SEE,
ENTHIMITIS IS A DISEASE
OF THE SPINE --
I KNOW THAT!
WELL, THAT'S WHERE
IT BEGINS.
IN ITS LATER STAGES,
IT CLAIMS SEVERAL VITAL
BODY ORGANS, MR. BARRET.
WHAT ARE YOU GETTIN' AT?
SIMPLY THIS -- I...
I CANNOT FREEZE YOU
AND BRING YOU BACK.
IT WOULD BE TOO MANY
TRANSPLANTS TO PERFORM.
I'M SORRY.
THESE, UH, THESE ORGANS --
THEY BEEN AFFECTED YET?
HOW LONG
HAVE YOU HAD THE DISEASE?
A MONTH.
NO, NO. IT WOULD STILL BE
LOCATED IN THE SPINE.
WELL, GOOD.
THEN DO IT TO ME NOW.
YOU CAN'T BE SERIOUS.
I CAN'T FREEZE YOU
WHILE YOU'RE ALIVE.
THAT'S NOT LEGAL.
LEGALITIES
DON'T BOTHER ME, DOCTOR.
WELL, YOU'RE ASKING ME
IN EFFECT --
SHUT UP!
NOW YOU NEED A BODY.
OKAY, YOU GOT ONE!
YES, BUT --
SHUT UP!
NOW NOBODY EVER NEED KNOW
ABOUT IT.
IT'S NO SKIN
OFF OF YOUR NOSE.
THE RISK IS ENTIRELY MINE.
NOW WHAT DO YOU SAY,
DOCTOR?
WELL, THE ANSWER
STILL HAS TO BE "NO."
MR. BARRET, I KNOW WHAT
YOU MUST BE GOING THROUGH,
BUT I--I CAN'T DO
WHAT YOU ASK.
[ SLAMS DESK ]
YOU'RE BACKING THE WRONG
MAN INTO A CORNER, DOCTOR!
Woman on intercom:
Doctor?
YES?
MR. HOLLISTER WOULD LIKE
TO SPEAK TO YOU, DOCTOR.
EXCUSE ME.
Yes?
No. I've told you
never to call me here,
now what is --
No, not so soon
after the last time, I --
No!
All right...
All right, I'll have it.
15 minutes.

[ HISSING ]
MR. BARRET, IF THIS IS
TO BE A CONTINUATION
OF OUR PREVIOUS DISCUSSION,
I --
OPEN IT!
WHERE DID YOU GET THIS?
NEVER MIND. NOW YOU KNOW
WHAT I WANT, DOCTOR.
I CAN'T!
IT'S NOT LEGAL!
YOU DID IT TO YOUR WIFE.
SHE WAS IN...SUCH PAIN,
SUCH TERRIBLE PAIN.
I HAD NO CHOICE
BUT TO PUT HER TO SLEEP
AND FREEZE HER.
AFTER READING
WHAT HAPPENED TO HER,
I'M SURPRISED YOU DON'T
HAVE DOUBTS ABOUT FREEZING.
AS YOU SAID, YOU'VE IMPROVED
YOUR EQUIPMENT SINCE THEN.
BESIDES, I HAVEN'T GOT
ANYTHING TO LOSE.
NO!
NO, I WON'T DO IT AGAIN!
I WON'T!
YES, YOU WILL.
I AIN'T GOT TIME
FOR BLUFFS, DOCTOR,
THIS IS GOING STRAIGHT
TO THE POLICE
AND THE NEWSPAPERS.
THINK ABOUT IT --
NO MORE RESEARCH,
NO EXPERIMENTS,
NO NOTHIN'!
ALL RIGHT.
NOW DON'T GET ANY IDEAS
ABOUT KEEPING ME ON ICE.
I MADE COPIES OF THOSE.
THEY'RE WITH A LAWYER.
WHEN THEY FIND THE CURE
FOR ENTHIMITIS,
IF I'M NOT BROUGHT BACK,
THEY GO STRAIGHT
TO THE POLICE.
YOU DON'T THINK
I'D INTENTIONALLY
MURDER YOU, DO YOU?
JUST KEEPING YOU HONEST,
DOCTOR.
ALL RIGHT,
LET'S GET STARTED.
WHAT'S IT GONNA BE LIKE?
SLEEP...VERY LONG SLEEP.
AM I GONNA FEEL ANYTHING?
NO,
YOU WON'T FEEL THE COLD.
THIS WILL PUT YOU
IN A COMA.
THEN I'LL FREEZE YOU.
YOU SURE
YOU WANT TO DO THIS?
[ HISSING ]
HE'LL BE COMING AROUND
IN A FEW MINUTES.
WE'LL HAVE TO PUSH HIM.
WE HAVE
LESS THAN THREE HOURS.
[ JET PACK HUMS ]
[ WHOOPING ]
[ LAUGHS ]
[ TELEVISION SHUTS OFF ]
MR. BARRET,
I'LL BE VERY PLEASED
TO ANSWER QUESTIONS
IN JUST A MOMENT.
BUT FIRST...
HOLD YOUR HEAD STILL.
TURN YOUR HEAD.
HOLD IT STILL.
THAT'S FINE.
5cc OF CORTISONE,
NURSE.
YES, MR. BARRET, YOU'VE
BEEN BROUGHT BACK TO LIFE.
HEY, DON'T I REMEMBER
YOU FROM SOMEPLACE?
YES.
A LONG TIME AGO.
YEAH. YOU WERE THE GUY WHO
WAS LOOKING FOR THE CURE.
THAT'S RIGHT, MR. BARRET.
I FOUND IT, TOO.
IT TOOK ME 11 YEARS.
11 YEARS.
THIS MUST BE --
1980.
MAY 19, TO BE EXACT.
1980!
WHAT'S WRONG?
WELL, WHEN YOU WERE TAKEN
OUT OF THE DEEP FREEZE,
MR. BARRET, THE ONLY THING
AFFECTED WAS YOUR SPINE.
THERE SHOULD HAVE BEEN
OTHER ORGANS
THAT WERE AFFECTED.
WHY WEREN'T THEY, THEN?
THAT'S WHAT'S PUZZLING.
YOU FIGURE IT OUT, DOCTOR.
I'M NOT A MEDICAL MAN.
HEY,
SPEAKING OF THE FREEZING,
WHAT HAPPENED
TO THAT DR. KINGSLEY?
IS HE STILL AROUND?
I'D LIKE TO THANK HIM.
A VERY UNFORTUNATE THING.
BRILLIANT MAN, KINGSLEY.
HE COMMITTED SUICIDE ABOUT,
OH, IT WAS FIVE YEARS AGO.
SOMETHING TO DO
WITH HIS WIFE,
IF I REMEMBER CORRECTLY.
TOUGH BREAK.
HEY, WHEN DO I
GET OUT OF THIS PLACE?
WE'RE GOING TO KEEP YOU
HERE ANOTHER TWO WEEKS.
WE HAVE A NUMBER OF TESTS
TO RUN ON YOU, MR. BARRET.
I SUGGEST YOU USE THAT TIME
TO LEARN ABOUT THE WORLD
AS IT IS NOW.
IT'S QUITE DIFFERENT.
WE HAVE REGULAR ORIENTATION
COURSES. WE USE A TV PANEL.
YOU'LL FIND IT VERY HELPFUL
IN ADJUSTING.
TO WHAT?
TO WHAT MAKES THE WORLD
RUN TODAY.
AS I REMEMBER IT,
THERE'S ONLY ONE THING
MADE THE WORLD RUN
BACK IN '68 -- MONEY.
AND I'LL BET YOU $1 MILLION
THAT HASN'T CHANGED.
I'M AFRAID
YOU'D LOSE THAT BET.
[ Chuckling ]
HOW'S THAT?
WE NO LONGER USE CURRENCY.
NO MONEY?
NO. IT WAS ALL CALLED BACK
ABOUT SIX YEARS AGO.
WE USE CREDIT CARDS NOW.
IT'S QUITE SATISFACTORY.
COMPUTERS AND MEMORY BANKS
DO ALL THE BOOKKEEPING.
WHAT ABOUT ME?!
I PUT SOME MONEY AWAY
BACK IN '68!
YOU'VE GOT TO RELAX.
RELAX.
IT'S STILL REDEEMABLE
UNTIL 1985.
MR. BARRET, YOU'LL FIND
THERE ARE A LOT OF CHANGES
IN THE WORLD,
AS YOU CAN SEE.
PARTICULARLY,
THE PHYSICAL ENVIRONMENT.
YOU'LL FIND
MOST OF THE THINGS
YOU WERE FAMILIAR WITH
HAVE EITHER BEEN DESTROYED,
ALTERED, OR TORN DOWN.
DESTROYED?!
Yes.
HEY, WAIT A MINUTE!
MR. BARRET,
I HAVE OTHER PATIENTS.
THERE'S A SUBURB NOT FAR
FROM HERE CALLED "LONGVIEW."
IS IT STILL THERE?
LONGVIEW.
I'M AFRAID
I CAN'T TELL YOU THAT.
BUT WHAT YOU CAN DO
IS PICK UP THE TELEPHONE,
PUNCH 198, AND OUR
COMMUNICATION CENTER
WILL ANSWER ANY QUESTION
YOU WANT,
AND FLASH IT
ON THE TELEVISION MONITOR.
YEAH, I'LL DO THAT!
[ DOOR CLOSES ]
MR. BARRET,
IF YOU WANT ANYTHING,
PLEASE USE THE SERVICE
BUTTON ON YOUR BED.
YEAH, WELL HOW COME
THIS DOOR IS LOCKED?
WE WERE ASKED
TO KEEP IT LOCKED.
BY WHO?
THE POLICE
WANT TO QUESTION YOU.
WHAT DO THEY WANT?!
MR. BARRET,
I DO NOT KNOW.
I WAS ONLY TOLD
NOT TO LET YOU
LEAVE THIS HOSPITAL.
NOW PLEASE, LIE DOWN IN BED.
YOU NEED YOUR REST.
POSSIBLY TOMORROW,
IF YOU'RE FEELING BETTER,
YOU CAN TALK TO THEM.
I GOT THE WORD. YOU GOT
SOME MORE INFORMATION.
YEAH.
BARRET'S GOING TO SEE
A DR. KINGSLEY,
493 JACKSON STREET.
HE'S THERE NOW.
YES, SIR,
MAY I HELP YOU?
YEAH, I WANT TO SEE A MAP
OF THE LONGVIEW AREA --
4th AND HYDE.
ONE MOMENT, PLEASE.
I'LL CONNECT YOU
WITH CITY PLANNING.
Rollin: I'M SORRY, SIR.
WE DON'T HAVE
THE INFORMATION YOU WANT.
THERE'S NO 4th AND HYDE
LISTED.
BUT THERE WAS
A 4th AND HYDE.
WAS? WHEN?
1968.
I SEE.
ONE MOMENT, PLEASE.
Is this the area, sir?
YEAH. YEAH, THAT'S IT.
4th AND HYDE.
IT'S BY THE CEMETERY.
THE CEMETERY.
Rollin: The reason
for the confusion
is the street names
have been changed.
For future reference,
it is now "4th and Delaney."
IS THE CEMETERY
STILL THERE?
YES. HOWEVER, THE AREA IS
UNDER TOTAL RECONSTRUCTION.
The work began two days ago
and should be completed
in four months.
GILBERT AND SINGLETON SHOULD
BE ON THEIR WAY BY NOW.
ROLLIN,
YOU CALL THE POLICE.
HAVE THEM READY TO MOVE INTO
LONGVIEW CEMETERY AT 6:00.
[ BUZZ ]
YES, MR. BARRET,
MAY I HELP YOU?
YEAH, UH, I DON'T KNOW
WHAT IT IS,
I THINK MAYBE THOSE, UH,
PILLS YOU'VE BEEN GIVING ME --
MY HEAD IS KILLING ME.
PAIN?
YEAH.
I'LL SPEAK
TO DR. MOORE.
THANKS.
ALMOST 5:30.
ONLY HALF AN HOUR LEFT.
JIM, DO YOU THINK
HE BOUGHT THE DATE?
YES. HE THINKS IT'S
ONE DAY OVER
THE STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS.
HE'S ON HIS WAY,
WILLY.
RIGHT.
RIGHT ON SCHEDULE.
BARRET IS GONE.
HE'S GONE!
WHO ARE YOU?
YOU KINGSLEY?
I'M KINGSLEY.
WHAT IS THIS?!
WHERE'S BARRET?
Gilbert:
THAT'S VERY CLEVER, DOCTOR.
WHERE'S BARRET NOW?
WELL,
WE DON'T KNOW EXACTLY.
BUT, UH, YOU HAVE AN IDEA,
RIGHT?
GENTLEMEN, PERHAPS WE
CAN MAKE A DEAL --
NO...
NO. NO DEALS.
YOU BETTER TAKE US
TO BARRET NOW.
Jim: THE CEMETERY ENTRANCE
IS JUST AHEAD.
TAKE A RIGHT.
ALL RIGHT. WATCH 'EM.
[ GUN COCKS ]
GET UP.
MOVE.

I HAD IT MADE.
I WAS HOME FREE.

NO, YOU'RE NOT.
