Speaker 1 (00:03):
Why please?
Speaker 2 (00:09):
Why please? Is they?
Speaker 3 (00:20):
A story written and directed by Willis Cooper and featuring
Ernest Chappell, is called.
Speaker 1 (00:27):
I Remember Tomorrow?
Speaker 2 (00:38):
Would you tell me the time?
Speaker 1 (00:39):
Please? Oh? Thank you?
Speaker 3 (00:43):
I didn't see the clock, Thank you very much. I
just wanted to see how much more.
Speaker 2 (00:47):
Time I have before a certain thing happens.
Speaker 3 (00:51):
I wanted to see if five time enough to tell
you what's going to happen, because certain things should be
done after it happens, you see, and I'm rather afraid
that will be up to you to do them.
Speaker 2 (01:05):
I uh, I won't be here.
Speaker 1 (01:09):
Uh let me see hard I better spot.
Speaker 2 (01:11):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (01:13):
Perhaps it would be best if I give you the
description of three men.
Speaker 2 (01:17):
I mean, you'll forgive me if I sound a little excuse.
Speaker 3 (01:22):
Occasionally I've sent anything to remember, and so little times
remember them all?
Speaker 2 (01:30):
Oh? Yeah, the description. There are three of them.
Speaker 3 (01:34):
Lauderbuch Oh, he's about medium size, probably forty years old,
has red hair and a heavy red mispatch. Lotterbox seems
to be the boss, or perhaps I should say the leader.
Speaker 2 (01:50):
And the second one is Greg. Greg is a large man.
Speaker 1 (01:57):
Docky, I should imagine, would call him around.
Speaker 2 (02:00):
Fifty, smooth shaven.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
Has Sandy's hair just I mean gray.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
And Frank, who's raight.
Speaker 3 (02:09):
I don't know his last name. Frank is all I've
heard him called, but the others, and I'm certain that's
his person name. Frank wears the glasses with heavy bows.
He has black, thin hair, and he's young compared to
the other it's twenty four five. I should say, they're
all very dangerous men. I'm afraid, churie.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
I didn't realize the person they were dangerous.
Speaker 3 (02:35):
Ment, But the events of the past few days have
demonstrated to me as they are, and as I shall
show you in a few moments.
Speaker 2 (02:44):
I now have.
Speaker 3 (02:46):
Incontrovertible proof that they are extremely dangerous.
Speaker 2 (02:52):
It is quite fortunate for you if they do not
know I'm talking to you. However, if you will do.
Speaker 3 (02:59):
Exactly as I ask you, I feel reasonably sure that
there would be no serious results for you. For myself,
I already know the outcoming. It is quite impossible to
change that.
Speaker 2 (03:15):
But you. Your task is to bring justice.
Speaker 3 (03:19):
To bring to justice to the men who murdered me,
or should I say, the men.
Speaker 2 (03:26):
Who are about to murder me. Let me start from
the beginning. I say enough time.
Speaker 3 (03:33):
My name is Garrett Faber, I am by profession what careless.
Speaker 2 (03:39):
Newspaper writers called a timper.
Speaker 3 (03:44):
By advocation, I am a gambler is singularly in act,
and unfortunate.
Speaker 2 (03:50):
Gambler can reacted one. In addition, I.
Speaker 1 (03:56):
Am afraid i'd drink.
Speaker 3 (04:02):
Perhaps my unfortunate cards may be in a way face
the bout.
Speaker 2 (04:06):
To my little tensity for Marchini choice.
Speaker 1 (04:10):
Come as see, it may be that.
Speaker 2 (04:11):
I drink et ceteravely to forget the sums of money
I lose a card. That's your thing, what you know. Unfortunately,
I shall have to wait until our coolic we was over.
Speaker 3 (04:21):
I left a large picture of Marchinies on this table
yesterday when I left there, I see by the empty
pictures that I.
Speaker 1 (04:29):
Drank its content.
Speaker 2 (04:31):
As a matter of fact, I believe Frank did say
I was finishing the picture when he killed me.
Speaker 3 (04:38):
Therefore, I have at least a constellation that the Myrcinies
will be waiting for me when I get back to yesterday,
even if I am to be murdered as I finished them.
Speaker 1 (04:52):
It's you interesting thought.
Speaker 3 (04:55):
I know it sounds like what a lot of I
called double cocks, doesn't it?
Speaker 2 (04:58):
But you understand it all present. Wait, if you listen carefully,
I find many interesting subjects to start in this room.
One of them is a partially dried stain on.
Speaker 1 (05:10):
The conference stain blood stain where I fell. And may
I look at the conf again? Oh oh, so that's
the sorry.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
One month to go to day No. One month ago. Yesterday,
I was sitting in a certain saloon. I was quite
fished for. It was a warm day, and I unfortunately
had no money for the purchase.
Speaker 3 (05:35):
Of any kind of liquid. This lest my wife to
draw is my habit waiting around in the saloon for
an acquaintance to come in and buy me a drink.
Speaker 2 (05:43):
It cot But she's deplored so many of my.
Speaker 3 (05:46):
Habits that I, uh, are you married?
Speaker 1 (05:51):
If you got.
Speaker 2 (05:53):
That, you understand well.
Speaker 3 (05:56):
It seems my acquaintances had other things to do that afternoon,
and I have the kid was doomed to sit and
perspire and envy the more fortunate stape things of the
saloons who had the where with all that I like.
Speaker 1 (06:12):
I had about giving up in despair.
Speaker 2 (06:14):
And the voice at my shoulder.
Speaker 1 (06:16):
Are you doctor Garrett Faber?
Speaker 2 (06:18):
He sumpsise. I answered him, I am afraid you have
somewhat the advantage of me.
Speaker 1 (06:23):
Sir, my name is Johnny Lauterbach.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
Doctor Faber.
Speaker 1 (06:26):
This is Mia Bring.
Speaker 2 (06:28):
How do you do sir?
Speaker 1 (06:29):
Frank meets doctor Faber?
Speaker 2 (06:31):
Lately, Doctor Faber, would you have a drink with us?
Needless to say, I accepted your pleasure.
Speaker 1 (06:44):
I uh, there.
Speaker 2 (06:46):
Was a time when I did not so readily d
me to exchange you. But well, perhaps it was.
Speaker 3 (06:52):
The kind of conditioning of my mind that led me
to assume that these men were casual acquaintances of my
Did night remember.
Speaker 2 (07:02):
In any rate?
Speaker 1 (07:02):
The afternoon war on and we did become Vesita.
Speaker 2 (07:06):
How about another double Martini?
Speaker 3 (07:07):
Doctor Fabers drink up Doctor bore Martini's on the way.
Speaker 4 (07:11):
He buy one for the doctor. Hey, Patty, another double Martinis?
Speaker 2 (07:15):
U and I am afraid that that was the last
I remember of that afternoon. The next morning, however, I
recalled his simply. I had a.
Speaker 3 (07:29):
Trans and gentle angle, and I was not at home.
My three drinking companions were still with me.
Speaker 2 (07:39):
John Elana Back, mister Gregg and frag A lot of
fact was good enough to produce the bottle of something
from which she bought me a large number.
Speaker 3 (07:49):
Fool I drank a grape pulice and the dark clouds
in the room sprit and second numberful and doctor Faber
was all most himself again.
Speaker 2 (08:01):
That you that condition might be. I reached through third
glasses for that.
Speaker 1 (08:06):
That's for now, doctor Faber.
Speaker 2 (08:08):
One more and you be on your ear again. You'll
feel all right now, desin what I am a sight
to fall?
Speaker 1 (08:13):
You could one of you tell me where we are.
Speaker 2 (08:18):
Where we are isn't very important right now, doctor Faber.
Speaker 1 (08:21):
It's where we're going to be. Doctor.
Speaker 2 (08:25):
Yeah, well I'm read, I don't you stand.
Speaker 1 (08:28):
I'll tell you, doctor Faber. Yes, you talk to me
about about it.
Speaker 2 (08:32):
Sure, we'll let you. Well, now, doctor, you used to
be one of the most.
Speaker 5 (08:39):
Brilliant physicists in the business.
Speaker 2 (08:41):
I want as a reputation.
Speaker 1 (08:44):
Yeah, but bottles and.
Speaker 5 (08:45):
That's the racket, doesn't right?
Speaker 1 (08:48):
And since this time, my friends, of your true success statement.
Speaker 5 (08:52):
You haven't had a job in quite some time, have
it not?
Speaker 2 (08:55):
In quite some times?
Speaker 3 (08:58):
You gentlemen drinking and offering you the job, he might
a temporary job with a lot of go attack.
Speaker 2 (09:05):
Would this be honest?
Speaker 1 (09:07):
Stump?
Speaker 2 (09:08):
It require laying off hard liquor for a while, from
staying out of side and a payoff.
Speaker 1 (09:14):
That'll kiddy your dock.
Speaker 2 (09:16):
May I know more about this job? Dot?
Speaker 1 (09:20):
There listening?
Speaker 5 (09:21):
We're not screwing it. Yeah, we know something about their work.
Speaker 2 (09:25):
In that time.
Speaker 3 (09:26):
If I understand, then why you use the word screwing.
You may remember that the character of my work is
because of my dismissal. I mean, listen, but probably what
puts you on the bottle quice. We don't care about that,
Dot in Prince just trinth, you are back clear again.
(09:47):
You were investigating time and space relationship. If that's the
scientific name for it, that's essentially correct.
Speaker 2 (09:54):
The university took her out.
Speaker 3 (09:56):
Jim view of some of the reports of my work,
a division the published print.
Speaker 4 (10:00):
I remember that they get in the pants off.
Speaker 1 (10:02):
Yeah he did that, indeed.
Speaker 2 (10:04):
But we think you're on me up or up doctor Fabers.
Speaker 1 (10:07):
But no, I'm most securedly very great to see.
Speaker 2 (10:10):
That's why we want.
Speaker 1 (10:11):
You to do this job.
Speaker 2 (10:12):
For it you ought to do it standing on your head.
Speaker 3 (10:15):
Dot, I'm afraid you haven't. You told me just do
the job consists of uh, perhaps I can't do it.
Speaker 1 (10:24):
I have to say you're telephone my wife. We've told
this wool you did. We told her you'd be busy
on a new projects. If you meet in the couldn't Japan?
Speaker 3 (10:34):
You are so mail the two hundred dollars and you're
retaining you see, you will.
Speaker 1 (10:40):
Be very happy to receive the money.
Speaker 2 (10:42):
I'm afraid I haven't been able to suppire anything.
Speaker 1 (10:45):
Sometimes you think.
Speaker 2 (10:46):
If you'd take the job, doctor A two hundred dollars,
there's not much of an.
Speaker 4 (10:50):
Investment, not when you take it against what this job
will make for it.
Speaker 1 (10:55):
And I'm stilling the dog.
Speaker 5 (10:57):
Well, uh, there's a lot of box will explain it
to you.
Speaker 3 (11:00):
Yeah, the bland miss a lot of doctor favor.
Speaker 1 (11:03):
According to your experiments. Mean you stop the time? What
if you said the level thing that's corrected?
Speaker 2 (11:11):
You said it's something like air or water, didn't it? Well,
that needs a little antraisification.
Speaker 1 (11:17):
He said, you could move.
Speaker 4 (11:18):
Around anytime like you move around in air.
Speaker 2 (11:20):
And water and stop in theories.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
Generally, I believe that possible that time.
Speaker 2 (11:27):
But you'll prove that theory, doctor Staber.
Speaker 3 (11:30):
I was dismissed from the university before I had an
opportunity to use to him scula.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
You could pull it though, as I have reasons for
the reason I could.
Speaker 1 (11:40):
Yes, that's yours.
Speaker 2 (11:43):
Now, I asked it for pose?
Speaker 1 (11:44):
Is this discuss?
Speaker 2 (11:46):
Why?
Speaker 1 (11:46):
Sure?
Speaker 2 (11:46):
A doctor Bertinitly, Doctor Stable, good, we want you to
make a time machine for a doctor?
Speaker 1 (11:54):
Thank you? I was leveling.
Speaker 2 (11:57):
You got when other single type of good?
Speaker 1 (11:59):
One in sieve of the time it's seen much less?
Speaker 2 (12:02):
I seal or do one? I hesitated, I said I wasn't.
Speaker 1 (12:06):
Sure I should do it.
Speaker 3 (12:07):
You can do it, all right, doctor, I said it
would cost a great deal of money. We'll get up
the money.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
I said. It would require considerable time.
Speaker 1 (12:15):
We can wait back the payoff. Good enough, we can
wait a long time.
Speaker 5 (12:18):
And so I'm not to read about you payoff.
Speaker 1 (12:27):
Have a small drink? Doctor.
Speaker 2 (12:33):
Obviously I set to a challenge. Obviously I can struct a.
Speaker 1 (12:37):
The time machine.
Speaker 2 (12:38):
Otherwise, how could I be talking to you from tomorrow?
Speaker 1 (12:43):
How could I be speaking to you at ten thirteen.
Speaker 3 (12:49):
Pm Eastern daylight Saving time on Monday, July twenty eighth,
And you are as obviously listening to me at ten
thirteen on Sunday July twenty seven. I don't know where
you are. Of course, you may be listening to me
in other times. Don't wrap to six thirteen pm. Specific
standard time at seven thirteen mountain time. If you don't
(13:10):
see that time, his reality its tip to this time
in camera.
Speaker 2 (13:18):
You're not going to detail anything to me. It is
alou simple, although it I mentally complicated, and you may
matter when the team writes.
Speaker 3 (13:26):
Before me on the table here a rather bad you're
little the vice look at something like the camera. But
if fragility is affective, it cannot be.
Speaker 1 (13:37):
Destroyed now.
Speaker 5 (13:40):
Observed here here's a hammer, nothing.
Speaker 3 (13:51):
Nothing, whatever happens, and for a very excellent reason. And
the team cannot be destroyed now tomorrow because it must
go back to me before long, to what it is
today to you. If I could destroy it now, it
would be impossible for it to go back, and the
whole experiment would have become impossible.
Speaker 2 (14:13):
To follow me.
Speaker 1 (14:14):
It's no matter. I have some things to story. You.
Speaker 3 (14:18):
Let me go back to the afternoon when I first
was certain that I had a really mentary time.
Speaker 1 (14:23):
Machine that would actually work.
Speaker 2 (14:25):
I had consumed a great deal of liquor.
Speaker 3 (14:29):
You got it back in these friends with great generous
and I found, strangely enough, the drinking.
Speaker 1 (14:35):
Did not seem to affect my work.
Speaker 2 (14:36):
And fit on my sins.
Speaker 1 (14:40):
To have to do.
Speaker 2 (14:41):
I have to put out it.
Speaker 1 (14:42):
I might not have been able to deal with it right,
not to believe it's too late.
Speaker 3 (14:48):
Now it works and it has already performed its function.
Speaker 2 (14:54):
Shall I say?
Speaker 1 (14:55):
Sponsors were most curious that after?
Speaker 2 (14:58):
How are you going to prove it work?
Speaker 4 (15:00):
Doctor Faber sends something into the future, send what not me?
I rather think we.
Speaker 2 (15:06):
Will try it and in then them its object first, gentlemen, Uh.
Speaker 1 (15:11):
The pencil there, yes, the pencil.
Speaker 4 (15:13):
You can't hurt a pencils.
Speaker 1 (15:14):
Well if this works?
Speaker 2 (15:16):
If it works, oh man, how long will it be gone?
Speaker 3 (15:20):
For the purpose of the demonstration, I should send it
away from Uh wait, only.
Speaker 1 (15:25):
A few seconds? How far away?
Speaker 2 (15:27):
Shall we say? Uh?
Speaker 1 (15:28):
Tomorrow?
Speaker 4 (15:30):
Yeah, tomorrow anyway, and that's fine enough.
Speaker 1 (15:34):
Well, uh tomorrow.
Speaker 2 (15:37):
Five second?
Speaker 1 (15:39):
Are we ready? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (15:41):
Sure, I watch thing, it's gone.
Speaker 1 (15:50):
I watch one second, two, three, four, five?
Speaker 2 (15:57):
There is again.
Speaker 1 (15:58):
Let's see it. H doesn't seem to be changed.
Speaker 2 (16:01):
It isn't you why should it be?
Speaker 4 (16:04):
Listen, how do we know that pencil was in tomorrow?
Speaker 1 (16:08):
Oh we don't, Frank, Well, but where was it?
Speaker 2 (16:11):
Well? Yeah, yeah, but how.
Speaker 1 (16:16):
Are we gonna know?
Speaker 2 (16:17):
Tell me that, doctor, how are we gonna know? We'll
have to send somebody who can come back and report.
Who is that gonna be? Doctor Faber? Not me?
Speaker 1 (16:32):
Not me? Doctor. Will you have a drink? I will
have a drink. I will have two drinks. I will
have a large number of drinks. I will listen.
Speaker 2 (16:48):
You are invented a doctor. You know more about it
than I.
Speaker 3 (16:50):
I will drink again and shake my head solemnly at
your importunities.
Speaker 1 (16:56):
Gentlemen, one of us might bust the thing you know.
Speaker 3 (16:59):
Go on, and that we have to know for sure,
because I don't quite trust your gentlemen.
Speaker 1 (17:05):
I don't know what you are up to.
Speaker 3 (17:06):
But slowly the suspicion grows in my alcoholic mind that
you want this instrument for no good. And if I
do use it and travel into tomorrow, if I shall
do it alone, when none of you are about, I
can be crafty and cunning myself.
Speaker 1 (17:22):
Gentlemen, as crafty and cunning as I suspect you are.
Speaker 3 (17:26):
And I shall do my first exploring alone, and deliberately
I set out to drink myself into a condition where
I shall be of no use whatever to my patrons.
And her voice is wavered off in a.
Speaker 2 (17:40):
Haze of my own maid, you gave it to him
FLAUTI ba. But then after a while it was night
and my head was reasonably clear.
Speaker 3 (17:57):
And I was locked in my room and load of
that can think in a frank where I assumed peacefully sleeping,
and that was my time let it was the time to.
Speaker 1 (18:07):
Look at tomorrow.
Speaker 2 (18:09):
I looked at the calendar on the table and said Thursday,
July thirty.
Speaker 1 (18:13):
I looked at the clock eleven thirty four pm.
Speaker 3 (18:17):
I passened the chain on the door, and I turned
on a small light at the table, and then I
attached the time machine to my wrist. Carefully, I set
it for one month ahead. Carefully I set the dial
to allow me five minutes in the future, and with
(18:38):
a last swift look around, I dressed the release.
Speaker 1 (18:52):
It was not an unpleasant sensation, and the room was dark.
Speaker 3 (18:56):
The light I had just turned on was out the
switch to turn it on again, and I was startled
nearly out of my sense.
Speaker 1 (19:04):
Lights flashed outside.
Speaker 3 (19:05):
They seemed to be coming from the sky above, and
the air was heavy with brashing sound.
Speaker 1 (19:10):
Had I made an error in calculation? Was I the
only witness of a comic destruction? I rushed to the window.
A light sensing in a flash.
Speaker 3 (19:18):
Rock at the viral technic display of glorious sound and color.
Speaker 1 (19:23):
I watched it in terror for a moment. Then I
remember I.
Speaker 2 (19:26):
Had only a few minutes back to the table, turn
on the light, and the desk calendar glared up at me. Friday,
July fourth. That was it. I hadn't made an error, and.
Speaker 1 (19:35):
I thought I'd set the machine for a month ahead.
But it was only for a day. It was tomorrow.
My watch tikton.
Speaker 2 (19:44):
The evening paper lay on the table the day, July fourth,
nineteen forty seven.
Speaker 1 (19:49):
And I had my proof. I snatched up the paper
and stuffed.
Speaker 3 (19:52):
It in the pocket, and the fireworks outside died away,
and the watch tikton, and suddenly I was.
Speaker 2 (20:00):
Back July third, nineteen forty seven, said the calendar pad.
Speaker 3 (20:05):
I had succeeded. I had seen to morrow to day,
and I had my proof. I reached for tomorrow's newspaper.
There was no paper, or perhaps I dropped it on
the floor.
Speaker 2 (20:19):
Oh, there was no paper.
Speaker 1 (20:21):
There was no proof.
Speaker 2 (20:25):
I tried again with the machine. I found out some things.
Speaker 3 (20:28):
No matter how I said it, it would only go
to the next day. Perhaps there's some kind of providence
that prevents man from the scene.
Speaker 1 (20:36):
Too far into the future. I found out something else.
It was impossible to bring back anything from the future.
I tried it with a newspaper.
Speaker 3 (20:46):
I tried it with a dozen of the tangible things,
but I was always empty handed when I returned.
Speaker 1 (20:52):
Now, my friends didn't know this.
Speaker 3 (20:55):
They didn't know anything about all the tomorrows I had seen.
I was to turn to find out what use they
intended to make of my machine first, and I found out, oh,
I had held out against testing the machine in their presence,
so far as they knew, I'd never tried it. And
they kept after me day after day, and at last
(21:16):
I set my price.
Speaker 1 (21:18):
And what do you want to use this machine for? Gentlemen?
Speaker 2 (21:24):
Shall I tell him?
Speaker 1 (21:25):
Greg might as well?
Speaker 2 (21:26):
I guess what.
Speaker 1 (21:27):
About your frank?
Speaker 2 (21:28):
Now you find out anyway?
Speaker 3 (21:30):
Well, I shall not test a gentleman until I know
what if we hooked it up and sent you out anyway.
Speaker 2 (21:36):
Yeah, whether you want to or not, how about that?
It wouldn't work.
Speaker 1 (21:41):
Gentlemen. You don't think I'm quite a fool, do you?
Speaker 3 (21:46):
What do you mean, favor? I haven't shown you everything
about its operation yet. Okay, tell him it's a lot
of act.
Speaker 1 (21:57):
You appear to have us more or less over a barrel. Doctor. Uh,
thank you.
Speaker 2 (22:01):
So we're gonna make a lot of money with it.
Speaker 3 (22:05):
You said that, how very simple, too simple, that, doctor Faber.
We intend to step into the future, knock over a
few banks.
Speaker 2 (22:15):
And come back to today with the money.
Speaker 1 (22:17):
See that.
Speaker 2 (22:18):
Yes, but you got what.
Speaker 3 (22:21):
I didn't tell them what I had discovered. I didn't
tell them my machine could move no farther into the
future than twenty four hours.
Speaker 2 (22:28):
And I didn't tell them that they could bring nothing
back with them. Even if I'd sympathize.
Speaker 3 (22:34):
With their remarkable scheme, I didn't dare tell them I
was caught. They'd find out sometime then what it was.
A good scheme, wasn't it. But of course there are
physical laws that cannot be violated. If you take something
from the future and bring it back to today, then
it never existed in the future.
Speaker 1 (22:55):
Figure it out for yourself. It doesn't take a doctor's
philosophy to work it out. So that was it.
Speaker 2 (23:01):
Now I had to demonstrate whether I wanted to or not.
Speaker 3 (23:04):
I thought fast, Perhaps I could set the machine so
I could stay indefinitely in the future. I studied it hot.
I thought I could do it, and they watched me.
That was yesterday, today today to them, m and yesterday
to me m M.
Speaker 2 (23:19):
It was nearly half an.
Speaker 3 (23:20):
Hour ago, or if I trust the calendar, twenty four
and a half hours ago. I set the machine for
an indefinite stay and tomorrow, and they watched me curiously.
They said, bring us back Tomorrow's paper, Doctor, don't stay
too long. Yeah, hurry back out, and Frank laughed as
I pressed the release. Now it's tomorrow here, and you've
(23:50):
got to help me because I can't stay here indefinitely.
I'm going back. The machine works automatically. It'll take me back,
whether I wanna go or not.
Speaker 2 (24:00):
Do you want to know how?
Speaker 1 (24:01):
I know? Well?
Speaker 2 (24:04):
And a little while ago, I.
Speaker 1 (24:05):
Was sitting here alone.
Speaker 3 (24:07):
Tomorrow's paper was on the table beside me, and the
door opened and they walked in.
Speaker 1 (24:12):
I spoke to them, Hello. They walked on him, paying
no attention.
Speaker 2 (24:17):
You better get that.
Speaker 1 (24:17):
Blood cleaned up, Frank, Yeah, it's too easy to spot.
Speaker 2 (24:20):
I'll get at it again. I looked down.
Speaker 3 (24:22):
There was a blood spot on the carpet me where
I was sitting, and I spoke again, Where did the
blood come from mister.
Speaker 2 (24:27):
Now I know the thing works.
Speaker 1 (24:28):
We've got to get some money. Oh, it works all right, mister.
Speaker 3 (24:31):
The first thing was to get rid of his body.
Whose body, mister Lotton, and keep it there in the
closet forever.
Speaker 4 (24:35):
You know, somebody might come in while we're out tonight.
Speaker 1 (24:38):
Because somebody had been killed, mister Nyle.
Speaker 2 (24:40):
Anyway, we owe him something.
Speaker 1 (24:41):
He got paid off, though I sort of liked the
dock of that.
Speaker 4 (24:45):
He hated to knock him off, knock whom all?
Speaker 3 (24:48):
We couldn't keep him around after he got the machine
working and tested it out for us, could we?
Speaker 2 (24:51):
Of course not?
Speaker 1 (24:52):
He served his purpose?
Speaker 2 (24:53):
Are you talking about it?
Speaker 3 (24:54):
Though?
Speaker 4 (24:55):
When he picked up that picture of Martiniz and took
a big slotte, I thought he had a funt that
SUP was up. Uh forget it, Frank, And he said,
I drink the success, gentlemen.
Speaker 1 (25:05):
That was yesterday, Frank, And I knew. I knew why
they didn't see me or hear me. You know now, dude,
don't you? I wasn't there. This was tomorrow to them.
It was yesterday.
Speaker 3 (25:21):
They killed me when I came back when I said
I'd drink to success, gentlemen, I wasn't there in the
room when they talked about it.
Speaker 1 (25:29):
I was dead. So I know now, and you know
I've got to go back. I've got to go back
and be killed. Nothing can stop that. I should have known.
But you, yeah, you've got to help me.
Speaker 3 (25:46):
You've got to send the police here. They've got to
be captured before they can use my machine.
Speaker 2 (25:53):
Think what they can do with it. And they're murderers.
They murdered me.
Speaker 1 (25:58):
You will help, won't you.
Speaker 2 (26:01):
Oh, yes you will, Yes, you will, I know you will.
Speaker 5 (26:05):
Friend, you did help, Yes, you did, It says so
right here in tomorrow's papers.
Speaker 2 (26:09):
Look, you've got to help.
Speaker 5 (26:13):
They can do so many terrible things of my machine.
Speaker 2 (26:17):
No, I know they can't bring anything back to them
tomorrow with them, but they can kill you.
Speaker 1 (26:24):
Will help.
Speaker 3 (26:25):
Let me read you what tomorrow's paper says about what
you did. Uh, I'm afraid I didn't read it all
the first time.
Speaker 1 (26:36):
I'm something.
Speaker 3 (26:38):
No, I'm terribly sorry, but well, listen, died this afternoon
as a result of wounds suffered in the capture of
the three men. That's your friend, that's you that's to
be killed tomorrow trying to help me. No, Oh, you
(27:00):
can't change it. You can't change it anymore than I can.
Machine is buzzing again. I'm going back.
Speaker 2 (27:06):
I'll pick up my drink.
Speaker 1 (27:07):
And I'll say I drink to success. Gent Well, doctor,
did you make it? I drink to success?
Speaker 3 (27:19):
Gentlemen, you have heard I Remember Tomorrow, a Quiet Please
(27:50):
story written and.
Speaker 1 (27:51):
Directed by Willis Cooper. A man who spoke to you
was Ernest Cappell.
Speaker 3 (27:57):
And Frederick Bell played out a back at Murdoch was
heard as Gregg, and Frank Dane was Frank. The music
was composed and played by Jean Brazzo. Now for a
word about next week's story on Quiet Please. Here is
our writer, Director Willis Cooper.
Speaker 1 (28:14):
Next week Quiet Please, story about a man and a
murder is called in quest, and so until next week.
At this time, I am quietly yours, Ernest Champel.
Speaker 2 (28:50):
This program came to you from New York.
Speaker 3 (28:53):
This is the mutual Broadcasting system.
Why please?
Speaker 2 (00:09):
Why please? Is they?
Speaker 3 (00:20):
A story written and directed by Willis Cooper and featuring
Ernest Chappell, is called.
Speaker 1 (00:27):
I Remember Tomorrow?
Speaker 2 (00:38):
Would you tell me the time?
Speaker 1 (00:39):
Please? Oh? Thank you?
Speaker 3 (00:43):
I didn't see the clock, Thank you very much. I
just wanted to see how much more.
Speaker 2 (00:47):
Time I have before a certain thing happens.
Speaker 3 (00:51):
I wanted to see if five time enough to tell
you what's going to happen, because certain things should be
done after it happens, you see, and I'm rather afraid
that will be up to you to do them.
Speaker 2 (01:05):
I uh, I won't be here.
Speaker 1 (01:09):
Uh let me see hard I better spot.
Speaker 2 (01:11):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (01:13):
Perhaps it would be best if I give you the
description of three men.
Speaker 2 (01:17):
I mean, you'll forgive me if I sound a little excuse.
Speaker 3 (01:22):
Occasionally I've sent anything to remember, and so little times
remember them all?
Speaker 2 (01:30):
Oh? Yeah, the description. There are three of them.
Speaker 3 (01:34):
Lauderbuch Oh, he's about medium size, probably forty years old,
has red hair and a heavy red mispatch. Lotterbox seems
to be the boss, or perhaps I should say the leader.
Speaker 2 (01:50):
And the second one is Greg. Greg is a large man.
Speaker 1 (01:57):
Docky, I should imagine, would call him around.
Speaker 2 (02:00):
Fifty, smooth shaven.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
Has Sandy's hair just I mean gray.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
And Frank, who's raight.
Speaker 3 (02:09):
I don't know his last name. Frank is all I've
heard him called, but the others, and I'm certain that's
his person name. Frank wears the glasses with heavy bows.
He has black, thin hair, and he's young compared to
the other it's twenty four five. I should say, they're
all very dangerous men. I'm afraid, churie.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
I didn't realize the person they were dangerous.
Speaker 3 (02:35):
Ment, But the events of the past few days have
demonstrated to me as they are, and as I shall
show you in a few moments.
Speaker 2 (02:44):
I now have.
Speaker 3 (02:46):
Incontrovertible proof that they are extremely dangerous.
Speaker 2 (02:52):
It is quite fortunate for you if they do not
know I'm talking to you. However, if you will do.
Speaker 3 (02:59):
Exactly as I ask you, I feel reasonably sure that
there would be no serious results for you. For myself,
I already know the outcoming. It is quite impossible to
change that.
Speaker 2 (03:15):
But you. Your task is to bring justice.
Speaker 3 (03:19):
To bring to justice to the men who murdered me,
or should I say, the men.
Speaker 2 (03:26):
Who are about to murder me. Let me start from
the beginning. I say enough time.
Speaker 3 (03:33):
My name is Garrett Faber, I am by profession what careless.
Speaker 2 (03:39):
Newspaper writers called a timper.
Speaker 3 (03:44):
By advocation, I am a gambler is singularly in act,
and unfortunate.
Speaker 2 (03:50):
Gambler can reacted one. In addition, I.
Speaker 1 (03:56):
Am afraid i'd drink.
Speaker 3 (04:02):
Perhaps my unfortunate cards may be in a way face
the bout.
Speaker 2 (04:06):
To my little tensity for Marchini choice.
Speaker 1 (04:10):
Come as see, it may be that.
Speaker 2 (04:11):
I drink et ceteravely to forget the sums of money
I lose a card. That's your thing, what you know. Unfortunately,
I shall have to wait until our coolic we was over.
Speaker 3 (04:21):
I left a large picture of Marchinies on this table
yesterday when I left there, I see by the empty
pictures that I.
Speaker 1 (04:29):
Drank its content.
Speaker 2 (04:31):
As a matter of fact, I believe Frank did say
I was finishing the picture when he killed me.
Speaker 3 (04:38):
Therefore, I have at least a constellation that the Myrcinies
will be waiting for me when I get back to yesterday,
even if I am to be murdered as I finished them.
Speaker 1 (04:52):
It's you interesting thought.
Speaker 3 (04:55):
I know it sounds like what a lot of I
called double cocks, doesn't it?
Speaker 2 (04:58):
But you understand it all present. Wait, if you listen carefully,
I find many interesting subjects to start in this room.
One of them is a partially dried stain on.
Speaker 1 (05:10):
The conference stain blood stain where I fell. And may
I look at the conf again? Oh oh, so that's
the sorry.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
One month to go to day No. One month ago. Yesterday,
I was sitting in a certain saloon. I was quite
fished for. It was a warm day, and I unfortunately
had no money for the purchase.
Speaker 3 (05:35):
Of any kind of liquid. This lest my wife to
draw is my habit waiting around in the saloon for
an acquaintance to come in and buy me a drink.
Speaker 2 (05:43):
It cot But she's deplored so many of my.
Speaker 3 (05:46):
Habits that I, uh, are you married?
Speaker 1 (05:51):
If you got.
Speaker 2 (05:53):
That, you understand well.
Speaker 3 (05:56):
It seems my acquaintances had other things to do that afternoon,
and I have the kid was doomed to sit and
perspire and envy the more fortunate stape things of the
saloons who had the where with all that I like.
Speaker 1 (06:12):
I had about giving up in despair.
Speaker 2 (06:14):
And the voice at my shoulder.
Speaker 1 (06:16):
Are you doctor Garrett Faber?
Speaker 2 (06:18):
He sumpsise. I answered him, I am afraid you have
somewhat the advantage of me.
Speaker 1 (06:23):
Sir, my name is Johnny Lauterbach.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
Doctor Faber.
Speaker 1 (06:26):
This is Mia Bring.
Speaker 2 (06:28):
How do you do sir?
Speaker 1 (06:29):
Frank meets doctor Faber?
Speaker 2 (06:31):
Lately, Doctor Faber, would you have a drink with us?
Needless to say, I accepted your pleasure.
Speaker 1 (06:44):
I uh, there.
Speaker 2 (06:46):
Was a time when I did not so readily d
me to exchange you. But well, perhaps it was.
Speaker 3 (06:52):
The kind of conditioning of my mind that led me
to assume that these men were casual acquaintances of my
Did night remember.
Speaker 2 (07:02):
In any rate?
Speaker 1 (07:02):
The afternoon war on and we did become Vesita.
Speaker 2 (07:06):
How about another double Martini?
Speaker 3 (07:07):
Doctor Fabers drink up Doctor bore Martini's on the way.
Speaker 4 (07:11):
He buy one for the doctor. Hey, Patty, another double Martinis?
Speaker 2 (07:15):
U and I am afraid that that was the last
I remember of that afternoon. The next morning, however, I
recalled his simply. I had a.
Speaker 3 (07:29):
Trans and gentle angle, and I was not at home.
My three drinking companions were still with me.
Speaker 2 (07:39):
John Elana Back, mister Gregg and frag A lot of
fact was good enough to produce the bottle of something
from which she bought me a large number.
Speaker 3 (07:49):
Fool I drank a grape pulice and the dark clouds
in the room sprit and second numberful and doctor Faber
was all most himself again.
Speaker 2 (08:01):
That you that condition might be. I reached through third
glasses for that.
Speaker 1 (08:06):
That's for now, doctor Faber.
Speaker 2 (08:08):
One more and you be on your ear again. You'll
feel all right now, desin what I am a sight
to fall?
Speaker 1 (08:13):
You could one of you tell me where we are.
Speaker 2 (08:18):
Where we are isn't very important right now, doctor Faber.
Speaker 1 (08:21):
It's where we're going to be. Doctor.
Speaker 2 (08:25):
Yeah, well I'm read, I don't you stand.
Speaker 1 (08:28):
I'll tell you, doctor Faber. Yes, you talk to me
about about it.
Speaker 2 (08:32):
Sure, we'll let you. Well, now, doctor, you used to
be one of the most.
Speaker 5 (08:39):
Brilliant physicists in the business.
Speaker 2 (08:41):
I want as a reputation.
Speaker 1 (08:44):
Yeah, but bottles and.
Speaker 5 (08:45):
That's the racket, doesn't right?
Speaker 1 (08:48):
And since this time, my friends, of your true success statement.
Speaker 5 (08:52):
You haven't had a job in quite some time, have
it not?
Speaker 2 (08:55):
In quite some times?
Speaker 3 (08:58):
You gentlemen drinking and offering you the job, he might
a temporary job with a lot of go attack.
Speaker 2 (09:05):
Would this be honest?
Speaker 1 (09:07):
Stump?
Speaker 2 (09:08):
It require laying off hard liquor for a while, from
staying out of side and a payoff.
Speaker 1 (09:14):
That'll kiddy your dock.
Speaker 2 (09:16):
May I know more about this job? Dot?
Speaker 1 (09:20):
There listening?
Speaker 5 (09:21):
We're not screwing it. Yeah, we know something about their work.
Speaker 2 (09:25):
In that time.
Speaker 3 (09:26):
If I understand, then why you use the word screwing.
You may remember that the character of my work is
because of my dismissal. I mean, listen, but probably what
puts you on the bottle quice. We don't care about that,
Dot in Prince just trinth, you are back clear again.
(09:47):
You were investigating time and space relationship. If that's the
scientific name for it, that's essentially correct.
Speaker 2 (09:54):
The university took her out.
Speaker 3 (09:56):
Jim view of some of the reports of my work,
a division the published print.
Speaker 4 (10:00):
I remember that they get in the pants off.
Speaker 1 (10:02):
Yeah he did that, indeed.
Speaker 2 (10:04):
But we think you're on me up or up doctor Fabers.
Speaker 1 (10:07):
But no, I'm most securedly very great to see.
Speaker 2 (10:10):
That's why we want.
Speaker 1 (10:11):
You to do this job.
Speaker 2 (10:12):
For it you ought to do it standing on your head.
Speaker 3 (10:15):
Dot, I'm afraid you haven't. You told me just do
the job consists of uh, perhaps I can't do it.
Speaker 1 (10:24):
I have to say you're telephone my wife. We've told
this wool you did. We told her you'd be busy
on a new projects. If you meet in the couldn't Japan?
Speaker 3 (10:34):
You are so mail the two hundred dollars and you're
retaining you see, you will.
Speaker 1 (10:40):
Be very happy to receive the money.
Speaker 2 (10:42):
I'm afraid I haven't been able to suppire anything.
Speaker 1 (10:45):
Sometimes you think.
Speaker 2 (10:46):
If you'd take the job, doctor A two hundred dollars,
there's not much of an.
Speaker 4 (10:50):
Investment, not when you take it against what this job
will make for it.
Speaker 1 (10:55):
And I'm stilling the dog.
Speaker 5 (10:57):
Well, uh, there's a lot of box will explain it
to you.
Speaker 3 (11:00):
Yeah, the bland miss a lot of doctor favor.
Speaker 1 (11:03):
According to your experiments. Mean you stop the time? What
if you said the level thing that's corrected?
Speaker 2 (11:11):
You said it's something like air or water, didn't it? Well,
that needs a little antraisification.
Speaker 1 (11:17):
He said, you could move.
Speaker 4 (11:18):
Around anytime like you move around in air.
Speaker 2 (11:20):
And water and stop in theories.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
Generally, I believe that possible that time.
Speaker 2 (11:27):
But you'll prove that theory, doctor Staber.
Speaker 3 (11:30):
I was dismissed from the university before I had an
opportunity to use to him scula.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
You could pull it though, as I have reasons for
the reason I could.
Speaker 1 (11:40):
Yes, that's yours.
Speaker 2 (11:43):
Now, I asked it for pose?
Speaker 1 (11:44):
Is this discuss?
Speaker 2 (11:46):
Why?
Speaker 1 (11:46):
Sure?
Speaker 2 (11:46):
A doctor Bertinitly, Doctor Stable, good, we want you to
make a time machine for a doctor?
Speaker 1 (11:54):
Thank you? I was leveling.
Speaker 2 (11:57):
You got when other single type of good?
Speaker 1 (11:59):
One in sieve of the time it's seen much less?
Speaker 2 (12:02):
I seal or do one? I hesitated, I said I wasn't.
Speaker 1 (12:06):
Sure I should do it.
Speaker 3 (12:07):
You can do it, all right, doctor, I said it
would cost a great deal of money. We'll get up
the money.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
I said. It would require considerable time.
Speaker 1 (12:15):
We can wait back the payoff. Good enough, we can
wait a long time.
Speaker 5 (12:18):
And so I'm not to read about you payoff.
Speaker 1 (12:27):
Have a small drink? Doctor.
Speaker 2 (12:33):
Obviously I set to a challenge. Obviously I can struct a.
Speaker 1 (12:37):
The time machine.
Speaker 2 (12:38):
Otherwise, how could I be talking to you from tomorrow?
Speaker 1 (12:43):
How could I be speaking to you at ten thirteen.
Speaker 3 (12:49):
Pm Eastern daylight Saving time on Monday, July twenty eighth,
And you are as obviously listening to me at ten
thirteen on Sunday July twenty seven. I don't know where
you are. Of course, you may be listening to me
in other times. Don't wrap to six thirteen pm. Specific
standard time at seven thirteen mountain time. If you don't
(13:10):
see that time, his reality its tip to this time
in camera.
Speaker 2 (13:18):
You're not going to detail anything to me. It is
alou simple, although it I mentally complicated, and you may
matter when the team writes.
Speaker 3 (13:26):
Before me on the table here a rather bad you're
little the vice look at something like the camera. But
if fragility is affective, it cannot be.
Speaker 1 (13:37):
Destroyed now.
Speaker 5 (13:40):
Observed here here's a hammer, nothing.
Speaker 3 (13:51):
Nothing, whatever happens, and for a very excellent reason. And
the team cannot be destroyed now tomorrow because it must
go back to me before long, to what it is
today to you. If I could destroy it now, it
would be impossible for it to go back, and the
whole experiment would have become impossible.
Speaker 2 (14:13):
To follow me.
Speaker 1 (14:14):
It's no matter. I have some things to story. You.
Speaker 3 (14:18):
Let me go back to the afternoon when I first
was certain that I had a really mentary time.
Speaker 1 (14:23):
Machine that would actually work.
Speaker 2 (14:25):
I had consumed a great deal of liquor.
Speaker 3 (14:29):
You got it back in these friends with great generous
and I found, strangely enough, the drinking.
Speaker 1 (14:35):
Did not seem to affect my work.
Speaker 2 (14:36):
And fit on my sins.
Speaker 1 (14:40):
To have to do.
Speaker 2 (14:41):
I have to put out it.
Speaker 1 (14:42):
I might not have been able to deal with it right,
not to believe it's too late.
Speaker 3 (14:48):
Now it works and it has already performed its function.
Speaker 2 (14:54):
Shall I say?
Speaker 1 (14:55):
Sponsors were most curious that after?
Speaker 2 (14:58):
How are you going to prove it work?
Speaker 4 (15:00):
Doctor Faber sends something into the future, send what not me?
I rather think we.
Speaker 2 (15:06):
Will try it and in then them its object first, gentlemen, Uh.
Speaker 1 (15:11):
The pencil there, yes, the pencil.
Speaker 4 (15:13):
You can't hurt a pencils.
Speaker 1 (15:14):
Well if this works?
Speaker 2 (15:16):
If it works, oh man, how long will it be gone?
Speaker 3 (15:20):
For the purpose of the demonstration, I should send it
away from Uh wait, only.
Speaker 1 (15:25):
A few seconds? How far away?
Speaker 2 (15:27):
Shall we say? Uh?
Speaker 1 (15:28):
Tomorrow?
Speaker 4 (15:30):
Yeah, tomorrow anyway, and that's fine enough.
Speaker 1 (15:34):
Well, uh tomorrow.
Speaker 2 (15:37):
Five second?
Speaker 1 (15:39):
Are we ready? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (15:41):
Sure, I watch thing, it's gone.
Speaker 1 (15:50):
I watch one second, two, three, four, five?
Speaker 2 (15:57):
There is again.
Speaker 1 (15:58):
Let's see it. H doesn't seem to be changed.
Speaker 2 (16:01):
It isn't you why should it be?
Speaker 4 (16:04):
Listen, how do we know that pencil was in tomorrow?
Speaker 1 (16:08):
Oh we don't, Frank, Well, but where was it?
Speaker 2 (16:11):
Well? Yeah, yeah, but how.
Speaker 1 (16:16):
Are we gonna know?
Speaker 2 (16:17):
Tell me that, doctor, how are we gonna know? We'll
have to send somebody who can come back and report.
Who is that gonna be? Doctor Faber? Not me?
Speaker 1 (16:32):
Not me? Doctor. Will you have a drink? I will
have a drink. I will have two drinks. I will
have a large number of drinks. I will listen.
Speaker 2 (16:48):
You are invented a doctor. You know more about it
than I.
Speaker 3 (16:50):
I will drink again and shake my head solemnly at
your importunities.
Speaker 1 (16:56):
Gentlemen, one of us might bust the thing you know.
Speaker 3 (16:59):
Go on, and that we have to know for sure,
because I don't quite trust your gentlemen.
Speaker 1 (17:05):
I don't know what you are up to.
Speaker 3 (17:06):
But slowly the suspicion grows in my alcoholic mind that
you want this instrument for no good. And if I
do use it and travel into tomorrow, if I shall
do it alone, when none of you are about, I
can be crafty and cunning myself.
Speaker 1 (17:22):
Gentlemen, as crafty and cunning as I suspect you are.
Speaker 3 (17:26):
And I shall do my first exploring alone, and deliberately
I set out to drink myself into a condition where
I shall be of no use whatever to my patrons.
And her voice is wavered off in a.
Speaker 2 (17:40):
Haze of my own maid, you gave it to him
FLAUTI ba. But then after a while it was night
and my head was reasonably clear.
Speaker 3 (17:57):
And I was locked in my room and load of
that can think in a frank where I assumed peacefully sleeping,
and that was my time let it was the time to.
Speaker 1 (18:07):
Look at tomorrow.
Speaker 2 (18:09):
I looked at the calendar on the table and said Thursday,
July thirty.
Speaker 1 (18:13):
I looked at the clock eleven thirty four pm.
Speaker 3 (18:17):
I passened the chain on the door, and I turned
on a small light at the table, and then I
attached the time machine to my wrist. Carefully, I set
it for one month ahead. Carefully I set the dial
to allow me five minutes in the future, and with
(18:38):
a last swift look around, I dressed the release.
Speaker 1 (18:52):
It was not an unpleasant sensation, and the room was dark.
Speaker 3 (18:56):
The light I had just turned on was out the
switch to turn it on again, and I was startled
nearly out of my sense.
Speaker 1 (19:04):
Lights flashed outside.
Speaker 3 (19:05):
They seemed to be coming from the sky above, and
the air was heavy with brashing sound.
Speaker 1 (19:10):
Had I made an error in calculation? Was I the
only witness of a comic destruction? I rushed to the window.
A light sensing in a flash.
Speaker 3 (19:18):
Rock at the viral technic display of glorious sound and color.
Speaker 1 (19:23):
I watched it in terror for a moment. Then I
remember I.
Speaker 2 (19:26):
Had only a few minutes back to the table, turn
on the light, and the desk calendar glared up at me. Friday,
July fourth. That was it. I hadn't made an error, and.
Speaker 1 (19:35):
I thought I'd set the machine for a month ahead.
But it was only for a day. It was tomorrow.
My watch tikton.
Speaker 2 (19:44):
The evening paper lay on the table the day, July fourth,
nineteen forty seven.
Speaker 1 (19:49):
And I had my proof. I snatched up the paper
and stuffed.
Speaker 3 (19:52):
It in the pocket, and the fireworks outside died away,
and the watch tikton, and suddenly I was.
Speaker 2 (20:00):
Back July third, nineteen forty seven, said the calendar pad.
Speaker 3 (20:05):
I had succeeded. I had seen to morrow to day,
and I had my proof. I reached for tomorrow's newspaper.
There was no paper, or perhaps I dropped it on
the floor.
Speaker 2 (20:19):
Oh, there was no paper.
Speaker 1 (20:21):
There was no proof.
Speaker 2 (20:25):
I tried again with the machine. I found out some things.
Speaker 3 (20:28):
No matter how I said it, it would only go
to the next day. Perhaps there's some kind of providence
that prevents man from the scene.
Speaker 1 (20:36):
Too far into the future. I found out something else.
It was impossible to bring back anything from the future.
I tried it with a newspaper.
Speaker 3 (20:46):
I tried it with a dozen of the tangible things,
but I was always empty handed when I returned.
Speaker 1 (20:52):
Now, my friends didn't know this.
Speaker 3 (20:55):
They didn't know anything about all the tomorrows I had seen.
I was to turn to find out what use they
intended to make of my machine first, and I found out, oh,
I had held out against testing the machine in their presence,
so far as they knew, I'd never tried it. And
they kept after me day after day, and at last
(21:16):
I set my price.
Speaker 1 (21:18):
And what do you want to use this machine for? Gentlemen?
Speaker 2 (21:24):
Shall I tell him?
Speaker 1 (21:25):
Greg might as well?
Speaker 2 (21:26):
I guess what.
Speaker 1 (21:27):
About your frank?
Speaker 2 (21:28):
Now you find out anyway?
Speaker 3 (21:30):
Well, I shall not test a gentleman until I know
what if we hooked it up and sent you out anyway.
Speaker 2 (21:36):
Yeah, whether you want to or not, how about that?
It wouldn't work.
Speaker 1 (21:41):
Gentlemen. You don't think I'm quite a fool, do you?
Speaker 3 (21:46):
What do you mean, favor? I haven't shown you everything
about its operation yet. Okay, tell him it's a lot
of act.
Speaker 1 (21:57):
You appear to have us more or less over a barrel. Doctor. Uh,
thank you.
Speaker 2 (22:01):
So we're gonna make a lot of money with it.
Speaker 3 (22:05):
You said that, how very simple, too simple, that, doctor Faber.
We intend to step into the future, knock over a
few banks.
Speaker 2 (22:15):
And come back to today with the money.
Speaker 1 (22:17):
See that.
Speaker 2 (22:18):
Yes, but you got what.
Speaker 3 (22:21):
I didn't tell them what I had discovered. I didn't
tell them my machine could move no farther into the
future than twenty four hours.
Speaker 2 (22:28):
And I didn't tell them that they could bring nothing
back with them. Even if I'd sympathize.
Speaker 3 (22:34):
With their remarkable scheme, I didn't dare tell them I
was caught. They'd find out sometime then what it was.
A good scheme, wasn't it. But of course there are
physical laws that cannot be violated. If you take something
from the future and bring it back to today, then
it never existed in the future.
Speaker 1 (22:55):
Figure it out for yourself. It doesn't take a doctor's
philosophy to work it out. So that was it.
Speaker 2 (23:01):
Now I had to demonstrate whether I wanted to or not.
Speaker 3 (23:04):
I thought fast, Perhaps I could set the machine so
I could stay indefinitely in the future. I studied it hot.
I thought I could do it, and they watched me.
That was yesterday, today today to them, m and yesterday
to me m M.
Speaker 2 (23:19):
It was nearly half an.
Speaker 3 (23:20):
Hour ago, or if I trust the calendar, twenty four
and a half hours ago. I set the machine for
an indefinite stay and tomorrow, and they watched me curiously.
They said, bring us back Tomorrow's paper, Doctor, don't stay
too long. Yeah, hurry back out, and Frank laughed as
I pressed the release. Now it's tomorrow here, and you've
(23:50):
got to help me because I can't stay here indefinitely.
I'm going back. The machine works automatically. It'll take me back,
whether I wanna go or not.
Speaker 2 (24:00):
Do you want to know how?
Speaker 1 (24:01):
I know? Well?
Speaker 2 (24:04):
And a little while ago, I.
Speaker 1 (24:05):
Was sitting here alone.
Speaker 3 (24:07):
Tomorrow's paper was on the table beside me, and the
door opened and they walked in.
Speaker 1 (24:12):
I spoke to them, Hello. They walked on him, paying
no attention.
Speaker 2 (24:17):
You better get that.
Speaker 1 (24:17):
Blood cleaned up, Frank, Yeah, it's too easy to spot.
Speaker 2 (24:20):
I'll get at it again. I looked down.
Speaker 3 (24:22):
There was a blood spot on the carpet me where
I was sitting, and I spoke again, Where did the
blood come from mister.
Speaker 2 (24:27):
Now I know the thing works.
Speaker 1 (24:28):
We've got to get some money. Oh, it works all right, mister.
Speaker 3 (24:31):
The first thing was to get rid of his body.
Whose body, mister Lotton, and keep it there in the
closet forever.
Speaker 4 (24:35):
You know, somebody might come in while we're out tonight.
Speaker 1 (24:38):
Because somebody had been killed, mister Nyle.
Speaker 2 (24:40):
Anyway, we owe him something.
Speaker 1 (24:41):
He got paid off, though I sort of liked the
dock of that.
Speaker 4 (24:45):
He hated to knock him off, knock whom all?
Speaker 3 (24:48):
We couldn't keep him around after he got the machine
working and tested it out for us, could we?
Speaker 2 (24:51):
Of course not?
Speaker 1 (24:52):
He served his purpose?
Speaker 2 (24:53):
Are you talking about it?
Speaker 3 (24:54):
Though?
Speaker 4 (24:55):
When he picked up that picture of Martiniz and took
a big slotte, I thought he had a funt that
SUP was up. Uh forget it, Frank, And he said,
I drink the success, gentlemen.
Speaker 1 (25:05):
That was yesterday, Frank, And I knew. I knew why
they didn't see me or hear me. You know now, dude,
don't you? I wasn't there. This was tomorrow to them.
It was yesterday.
Speaker 3 (25:21):
They killed me when I came back when I said
I'd drink to success, gentlemen, I wasn't there in the
room when they talked about it.
Speaker 1 (25:29):
I was dead. So I know now, and you know
I've got to go back. I've got to go back
and be killed. Nothing can stop that. I should have known.
But you, yeah, you've got to help me.
Speaker 3 (25:46):
You've got to send the police here. They've got to
be captured before they can use my machine.
Speaker 2 (25:53):
Think what they can do with it. And they're murderers.
They murdered me.
Speaker 1 (25:58):
You will help, won't you.
Speaker 2 (26:01):
Oh, yes you will, Yes, you will, I know you will.
Speaker 5 (26:05):
Friend, you did help, Yes, you did, It says so
right here in tomorrow's papers.
Speaker 2 (26:09):
Look, you've got to help.
Speaker 5 (26:13):
They can do so many terrible things of my machine.
Speaker 2 (26:17):
No, I know they can't bring anything back to them
tomorrow with them, but they can kill you.
Speaker 1 (26:24):
Will help.
Speaker 3 (26:25):
Let me read you what tomorrow's paper says about what
you did. Uh, I'm afraid I didn't read it all
the first time.
Speaker 1 (26:36):
I'm something.
Speaker 3 (26:38):
No, I'm terribly sorry, but well, listen, died this afternoon
as a result of wounds suffered in the capture of
the three men. That's your friend, that's you that's to
be killed tomorrow trying to help me. No, Oh, you
(27:00):
can't change it. You can't change it anymore than I can.
Machine is buzzing again. I'm going back.
Speaker 2 (27:06):
I'll pick up my drink.
Speaker 1 (27:07):
And I'll say I drink to success. Gent Well, doctor,
did you make it? I drink to success?
