Speaker 2 (01:04):
I tell you, Jeff, I won't do it. I won't
live with a man who's insane.

Speaker 3 (01:07):
He isn't insane. You married to him, and you will
live with him for a while at any rate.

Speaker 2 (01:11):
Can I tell you I can't. I can't bear living
with him any longer.

Speaker 3 (01:15):
Oh, reputations in this town are pretty well shot. Myra.
If you leave Caleb. Now I care about public opinion,
well I do. It means my bread and butter.

Speaker 1 (01:22):
Just just see.

Speaker 2 (01:23):
It makes me sick.

Speaker 3 (01:25):
Now.

Speaker 4 (01:25):
Look, he's been four years in the Air Force, two
years in this nut house.

Speaker 3 (01:30):
Now he's cured. Six years. You've been spending his money
and having yourself quite a happy time with it.

Speaker 5 (01:37):
Well, now you're going to turn into a sweet, devoted,
little Baltimore housewife.

Speaker 3 (01:42):
You'll go to Wendy Hill and get him, and you'll
bring him home and live with him. Jeff, he's crazy,
he's nothing at a sort of Doctor Hamilton wouldn't let
him come home. And Hamilton's one of the leading psychiatric Manamcotlay.

Speaker 2 (01:51):
I can't stand it that fall. I can't live with
a man that's insane.

Speaker 3 (01:55):
He's not insane and York.

Speaker 6 (01:56):
Go up to Wendy Hill and get him.

Speaker 2 (02:10):
Doctor Hamilton before I take Caleb home from here? Is
there anything else I should know?

Speaker 7 (02:15):
I don't think so. He's completely cured. Just be kind
to him, that's all.

Speaker 2 (02:19):
Oh, I will, I will. I've waited so long for
this day. I've been pretty lone to doctor Hamilton.

Speaker 7 (02:25):
I'm sure you are. Caleb's a fine man.

Speaker 2 (02:27):
There's no danger of a relax.

Speaker 7 (02:30):
It's so remote missus Hunt that I'd say there's no
danger at all. Two or three things still bother him.
A fire, for instance, and traffic. He shouldn't drive a
car for a few months.

Speaker 2 (02:40):
We've tried a little motor trip in New York. Shouldn't
let him drive.

Speaker 7 (02:42):
No, positively, no driving. He got excited or if something
startled him, he might freeze to the wheel. Just try
to keep him as relaxed as possible mentally and physically.

Speaker 2 (02:52):
Yes, of course, I will tell me doctor Hamilton, Just
what did you do to Caleb?

Speaker 7 (02:56):
You picked him up on We've done a great deal,
missus hunt. He put a tantulum plate in his head,
you see, when his plane crashed. The wound in his
head resulted in an actual breakdown of brain tissue. That
part is healed now he needs some rest and a
lot of happiness.

Speaker 2 (03:12):
And you does it hurt this place? There?

Speaker 7 (03:16):
Not of bed and he is cured.

Speaker 2 (03:18):
Oh, completely, will owe you a great deal, doctor Hamm.

Speaker 7 (03:21):
Nonsense, my dear, nonsense. Oh tell me what are your plans?
And yes, where we live.

Speaker 2 (03:27):
Right here in Baltimore. We're driving from New York. Sort
of a second honeymoon. Oh, I see, then we'll come
back here.

Speaker 7 (03:32):
Good trip will do him good er, Let him make
the decisions where to eat and what to do.

Speaker 3 (03:38):
You know it'll er give him.

Speaker 8 (03:39):
Confidence in himself.

Speaker 2 (03:40):
I'll do everything I can. Good.

Speaker 7 (03:42):
Now, you'd better go and find him. He's waiting for
you in the reception room on the first floor. I've
already said my good byes to him. So go on
your motor trip to New York and never think of
Windy Hill again.

Speaker 2 (04:06):
You are right, Caleb, I'm fine, I hope you didn't
mind my suggesting your draw Really, I was exhausty.

Speaker 1 (04:12):
No, I'm fine.

Speaker 3 (04:13):
It's good for me.

Speaker 1 (04:14):
I've got to get over these crazy notions.

Speaker 2 (04:15):
We just to doctor Hamilton said that you shouldn't do
any driving. I should never have suggested it.

Speaker 1 (04:20):
I don't know how to forget it. I'm fine, Really,
don't go do that. I relax, Myra, I'm fine. Get it.

Speaker 1 (05:29):
There's nothing the matter with me? And this is simply ridiculous.
Why shouldn't we stay in New York and I have
some fun? After all, neither of us was hurt.

Speaker 2 (05:36):
We might have been, Caleb, and then I didn't like that?

Speaker 1 (05:39):
Will I just shocked your nerves a shock to yours too.

Speaker 2 (05:42):
Isn't it not the same thing, Caleb? After all you've
been ill, very ill.

Nonsense?

Speaker 2 (05:47):
It isn't nonsense at all. I just want to take
care of you, that's all.

Speaker 1 (05:51):
I don't need taking care of your own.

Speaker 2 (05:52):
Good darling.

Speaker 1 (05:53):
There's nothing the matter with me.

Speaker 10 (05:54):
I tell you.

Speaker 2 (05:55):
We do have to be careful, though, but.

Speaker 1 (05:56):
You don't have to whisk me back to Baltimore after
one day in New York. Why we haven't seen a
thing yet anyhow? How we get the car back, it'll
take him at least a week to fix it.

Speaker 2 (06:05):
The car isn't as important to me as you are
doing well.

Speaker 10 (06:08):
I'm not going.

Speaker 2 (06:10):
I love you so much that I'd never forgive myself
if anything happened to you. I should never have let
you drive. I feel personally responsible for the accident.

Speaker 1 (06:17):
If you kept your hands off the wheel, we wouldn't
have had the accident. Oh, I'm sorry, Mara. I just
wish you'd stop worrying about me.

Your watch?

Speaker 2 (11:44):
The one you lost? Why did you pawn it?

Speaker 1 (11:46):

You said you lost?

Speaker 1 (11:52):
What do you mean said I lost? I did lose it.
I left it on the wash basin, but I washed
my hand.

It just vanished into thin air.

Speaker 1 (11:58):
It wasn't there when I went back.

Speaker 2 (11:59):
Do you think somebody stole it?

Speaker 1 (12:00):
I think it'll turn up somewhere and around the house.

Speaker 2 (12:03):
I saw it in a pawn shop this afternoon in
an I went in and looked at it. It had
your initials on the back.

Speaker 1 (12:08):

I can't believe it.

Speaker 3 (12:14):

He described the man who brought it in, and the
description fitted you.

Speaker 1 (12:22):
Mirah.

Speaker 2 (12:23):
I did not pawn that watch, and somebody's lying somewhere.

Speaker 1 (12:26):
Who do you prefer to believe me or some character
who runs a pawn shop? Are you implying that I
pawned that watch without knowing it?

Speaker 2 (12:34):
Darling, Darling, Caleb, I'm implying nothing. I'm sorry I mentioned it.

Speaker 1 (12:38):

Speaker 2 (18:05):
I got up this morning, Missus Archibald wasn't down. I
went up to waker. I thought you must have go overslept.
Her room was empty, the bed had been slept in,
but she's gone. And then when I came downstairs again,
I found your bedroom. Slip is in the hall, covered
with mudgin No, Caleb, please try to remember you were
outside the house sometime during the night. Can't you remember anything?

All these things I've been doing, mistakes I make every day.
I do something so hard on you, But I can't
go on like it.

Speaker 2 (19:06):

her with a couple of sound call.

Speaker 3 (19:12):

have been able to pack on her clothes and leave.
