Most of the stations aired two episodes each week, usually on the weekends and many times back to back.Many of the stories are based on Rod Serling's scripts from the original Twilight Zone series, and are slightly expanded and updated to reflect contemporary technology and trends and the lack of a visual component. In addition to adapting all of the original episodes aired on the TV series, the radio series has also adapted some Twilight Zone TV scripts which were never produced, scripts from other Serling TV productions, and new stories written especially for the radio series.
Taking Serling's role as narrator is Stacy Keach. Different Hollywood actors, such as Blair Underwood and Jim Caviezel, take the lead role in each radio drama. In addition, several stars who appeared on the original TV series, such as H.M. Wynant, Orson Bean and Morgan Brittany, appear, although purposely not in the roles they originated on television. The series features a full cast, music and sound effects and is produced in the flavor of classic radio dramas but using today's technology.
In addition to being an homage to the original Twilight Zone TV series, the radio dramas pay tribute to the era of classic radio drama, including allusions to radio dramas such as Gunsmoke, the presence of radio legend Stan Freberg in many episodes, and the sons (Stacy Keach, Ed Begley Jr.) of radio drama personalities Stacy Keach Sr. and Ed Begley as stars in the series.

(00:09):
You're traveling through another dimension, adimension not only of sight and sound,
but of mind, a journey intoa wondrous land whose boundaries are those of
imagination. Your next stop the TwilightZone. All right, ladies and gentlemen,
(00:36):
let's begin with the field reports.Who wants to go first? I
will, sir, proceed. Idon't want to spend all eternity on this,
yes, sir. First up isAngel first class, Scott Cousins assignment
Orion Project Evening Miracles job rating excellent, good man, real stuff. Next,
I have a report on Angel's secondclass William Allen assignment Beetlejuice Project,
(01:00):
Planet Rotation and Weather Job rating excellent. Hmmm, that's his third good rating
this month. Recommend him for promotionto first class. I concur chief right
on down the line miracle wise.He's done tremendous things. First class.
It shall be moving on Criston,Yes, sir, Well how about the
occupied planets? How about them?Oh? I'd say solid results all the
(01:22):
way down the line, Chief,with the possible exception, with a possible
exception of what Apprentice Angel Harmon Cavender, Sir, what's his assignment? Earth?
Earth? It's the dinky one,sir, in the Solar system,
the third planet from the Sun.Oh, yes, that's the noisy one
with all the trouble spots. Andso who did you send down there,
(01:45):
Cavender? Yes, sir, I'mafraid so he'll forgive me, Criston,
But there's a question of judgment here. The last time you sent Harmon Cavender
out on a project, we lostthree planets and it took a thousand years
to repair the damage. May Iask why we're still using that man?
He means well, sir, andhe's the oldest angel we have. By
the laws of seniority, he hasfirst rites to any assignment that will win
(02:07):
him his wings. It'll be acold day in the other place when Harmon
Cavender wins his wings. The manis an idiot. I hate to do
this, but I think it's timefor reclassification. Oh no, forgive me,
sir, but we haven't had areclassification of an angel and at least
an eon. This will most likelywell destroy poor Cavender's spirit. Destroy his
(02:30):
spirit, eh, and what hashe done to our morale? Not to
mention the Miracles Bureau, the Solarsystems and the whole concept of natural and
unnatural laws? Why the man isincorrigible? His last project on Earth do
you recall it? Well, hewas supposed to be working on a magic
elixir which would benefit the people ofthe planet. That's right. And after
(02:53):
he went missing for one hundred andthirteen years, what did that elixir turn
out to be? Gin? Onehundred and thirteen years? And there he
sat an apprentice angel with the powerof miracles, the prerogatives of a celestial
entity, the acquired wisdom of onebillion eons. And what is his accomplishment?
(03:14):
The repeal of prohibition? With yourpermission, Chief, what what's your
recommendation? Now? That man won'twin his wings no matter the time,
the place, the circumstances. Withthe Chief's permission, I could assign him
to a very minor project. Imean, put him on an individual case,
a relatively unimportant one, like whatone of the Class D problems?
(03:36):
You know, Chief, as we'vedone on occasion, pick out one Earth
inhabitant who seems unable to function withoutsome kind of heavenly aid. Have you're
someone in mind? We could findsuch a person. Where how about that
one down there? Orient me?My eyes aren't what they used to be
(03:58):
gp Agnes twenty six, habitat NewYork City, unable to hold a position,
constantly in debt, accident prone,somewhat somewhat discomboborated. Any change there
would be a marked improvement. Nowright you are, But apprentice Angel Harmon
Cavender, the girl needs help,not more trouble. We could give it
(04:21):
a try, sir. Well,let's see what he has to say for
himself. Some of them at once, Yes, sir, right away,
sir. Now submitted for your approval, the case of one miss Agnes Grepp,
whom we are about to meet upclose and personal. As you will
soon see, she was put onearth with two left feet, an over
(04:44):
abundance of thumbs, and a propensityfor falling down manholes. In a moment,
she will be up to her jawin miracles wrought by an apprentice angel
named Harmon Cavender, who is intenton winning his wings. Though it's a
fact that both of them should havestood in bed. They are about to
tempt all the fates by moving intosome particularly tricky territory known only as the
(05:10):
Twilight Zone. And now the TwilightZone and our story, Cavendar is coming
starring Andrea Evans with Stacy Keach asyour narrator. Excuse me, yes,
is this the third Celestial Division?Yes, sir, Angel Placement Bureau,
(05:31):

yes, we've been expecting you.Go right in. Thank you you
(05:56):
called me chief. There you areCavendar. I presume nice you have here.
I like the cloud effect makes itlook like infinite space out there.
It is infinite. Oh, theprintis Angel Cavender. It has come to
our attention that you are the onlyangel in your class not to have won
his wings. Sad but true,not for want of trying, I can
(06:17):
assure you. It has further cometo our attention that you are a cloud.
A cloud, sir, never mindbefore reclassifying you reclassify, We're going
to give you one more chance.Walk over to the edge with me and
look down through the cloud cover,I mean cloud cover. What do you
see? Oh? Which one theone in the theater with the costume the
(06:43):
husherets. I believe they call themnice looking girl? You think so good?
She's your next project. Oh thankyou, sir. I especially like
the uniform she's wearing, very militarywith epaulets. And what's that on her
head? Is that a fez?Haven't seen one of those in ages quite
a few ages. You will returnto Earth and supply her with aid,
(07:05):
assistance and advice for a period oftwenty four hours. If you are able
to improve her lot in any significantway, we will reopen your case.
You mean there's a possibility of gettingmy wings, It would be taken under
advisement. Actually, Kevinda, thereseems to be considerable question about the damage
(07:26):
you can do with just arms andlegs, not to mention wings or your
mouth. However, we've graciously consentedto give you one more opportunity. You

Oh well, that showbiz just plainfickle. I guess what's the difference
between me and all those women inthe movies? Classy sophisticated A boss?
(12:01):
You got a bus pass? Notas such. I wanted to get one,
but then I thought, of Idid, I might lose it and
then I'd be out all that money, so I never got one. In
thee I put your quarters in amachine where did you come from. Don't
panic, miss grep above all,don't panic. If you'll give me just
(12:24):
a moment, I can explain itspanicked. I almost missed the bus,
that's all, but you didn't thanksto you. On the contrary, I
know this will come as rather ashock to you, but I happened to
be a guardian angel. Say whendid you get on? I didn't see
you. The whole bus was empty. And then indeed I arranged it that
way as I was saying, didyou pay? I don't have to pay.
(12:48):
I'm an angel. Oh yeah,where are your wings? Then that's
a long story. In point offact, I've been given twenty four hours
to help you out in every waypossible. This does not preclude the use
of miracles. As I say,I know this is going to shock you,
but I happened to be your angel. Don't worry about it. I
(13:09):
daydream a lot myself. Last weekI daydreamed I was an astronaut. I
made one hundred and eleven orbits beforemister Goldfarb fired me. Mister Goldfarb,
he ran the delicatessen where I wasworking. I took care of the steam
table all day long, and that'swhere I used to do most of my
daydreaming. Wouldn't you? Wouldn't youat least like to see a little miracle?
(13:30):
Okay, that makes you feel better? Like what? Well, for
example, instead of a run ofthe mill bus that everybody uses, how
about a nice, flashy, chauffeurdriven convertible. Would that be something?
All right? Then? Here goesis that it? I have a way
of fouling these things up. Butif you'll give me just a second to
(13:52):
concentrate, Wow, cuchral part.Well, at least it's a carriage with
a convert to top. A driveronce around the park, if you please?
What is going on here? Whathappened to my buss? Oh?
I'm so sorry. You don't knowhow to handle horses, do you?
Of course? Not a small miscalculation. Lincoln Continental real snazzy, that's more
(14:18):
like it. A driver take usto the lady's residence. What is the
exact address? You ain't taking nobodynowhere in this here car. I signed
on the driver bus. Oh allright. From here on out, folks,
(14:39):
you're on your own. When thesupervisor comes to claim the bus,
tell him I resigned. Well,miss Grepp, what have you got to
say now, excuse me, well, where are you going? What do
you think I'm going home? Thisis my stuff? Wait miss grep please
wait, hey Aggie, Hi there. How's my favorite little girl today?

(15:43):
you got any candy today? Ye? Bye, got candy? Look at
this. I brought it all theway from Plonski's Theater just for you,
She thinks, Paggy, can Iask you a question? Sure? Wonder
(16:03):
what is it when you make potatopancakes? Is it three quarters of a
cup of flour and a half anonion or a half a cup of flour
and three quarters of an onion?I think it depends on how much you're
making. I mean, if youmake potato pancakes for four, it's one
cup of flour? Or is itone onion? No? Wait, a
minute. No, maybe it's oneegg and half an onion. How's the
(16:26):
job, Aggie? Hi, Joe? You mean how was it? Oh,
Eggie? You didn't go lose anotherone, did you? Yeah?
Pie went and lost another one allon my own? Which one was this
again? Plonsky's bees? You downtown? I flunked close order, drill.
Listen to me. Don't you worryabout it? None, You'll get another
job, but fast, nice personlike you, Aggie. Well, what's
(16:48):
the matter, Sweetie? I brokemy cookie? Oh sweet baby, aunt
Aggie has a cookie for you.You like it? Huh m hm.
And Aggie's got to go now,but I'll give you another cookie later,
would you like that? Be carefulnow, don't drop it. Don't panic.
(17:25):
I know, I know. SayI thought I left you back there?
Perish the thought. How did youget in my apartment? It was
a lot. As I told you, I'll be with you for twenty four
hours, twenty three hours and thirtyone minutes to be exact. Don't you
ever give up? How could I? I'm here to change your life,
Miss Grepp. As interesting place you'vegot here. I like it, oh,
(17:48):
I do too, particularly the stuffedanimals and the kepie dolls who've been
collecting them for some time, haven'tyou. If you'll excuse me, I
have got to take these shoes off. My feet are killing me. Let's
get down to business, shall we? What kind of business? In a
case like this, I usually examinethe most pressing problems and then formulate a
(18:10):
plan to alleviate them. Me too, Only whenever I make a plan,
something always happens, you know,like a fly in the ointment. Is
that an expression? My mother usedto say that whenever my father made plans,
Like the time he went into businessraising rock cornish game heads. It
was a great plan. Let metell you, I think the way to
attack this employment problem of would youlike something to drink? Oh? Yes,
(18:33):
that is no, I really shouldn't, as I would say for coffee.
You look like a tea man tome. I think I've got some
tea bag somewhere. Don't trouble you'resaying? How about a beer? Oh?
H no? No, Now,why don't we fix it so that
you're independently wealthy and don't even needemployment? Uh? What kind? I've
(18:53):
got some sherry? I don't thinkso. Now, my dear young lady,
we are discussing the alteration of yourentire future. For the moment,
we can dispense with the convivialities andproceed directly to it to Yes, you
wouldn't happen to have any gin wouldyou buy any chance? Just lying around
(19:18):
going to waste right? Not?Oh but I could run down to missus
Riani's apartment. Her husband makes itwell, sort of. You see.
He starts with what do you callit? Neutral grain spirits? And then
he adds these slow gin berry No, thank you, I've had that kind
manufactured in a bathtub, as Irecall. But back to business. First
off, you can't live here?Why not? Something wrong with this place?
(19:42):
Not at all? But it wouldn'tfit in with your new lifestyle.
I happen to know that there isa penthouse available right now at the Savoy
Arms. Where's that park Avenue andfifty eighth a penthouse? And how would
I pay for it on my salary? Even if I a salary, My
dear, there are all sorts ofways. Hey, buster, I am
(20:04):
not that kind of girl, Dearlady, I have no doubt, but
please try to grasp the situation.As of this moment, you are independently
wealthy. Now, why would yousay a thing like that? Watch this
nothing up my sleeve? Where didthat come from? Look closely? This
(20:26):
is an absolutely genuine statement from theNew York National Bank savings account number six
sixty one oh three, in thename of miss Agnes Grep. You think
maybe there's another Agnes Grep. Iseriously doubt it. The total balance in
liquid assets is up, but perhapsyou should read the figure for yourself.
I like to use odd numbers,by the way, an esthetic preference on
(20:49):
my part more pleasing to the eye. Don't you agree? I think you'd
like to use too many zeros too, don't you Perhaps you should sit down
now Onto social activities. I gobowling on Thursdays. Bowling smawling. That's
okay for pin setters, not fora park avenue debutante. Who's a debutant?
(21:15):
Look around? I think you'll getmy drift if I do say so
myself. I'm getting pretty good atthis. Look at the way they're all
dressed taxism and evening gowns, andme with these raddy clothes. Oh oops,
there, I hope you like thecolon. A perfectly charming party.
(21:37):
Agnes, my dear, and youruvershing, absolutely revershing. Oh, thank
you very much. I guess AnthonyChumley. Chumley builds and operates ocean liners.
The young lady is Miss DARLINGE CarruthersMorgan Jones. Her father is president
of the bank where your money isMedeu. You are exquisite and chanting,
(22:03):
delightful. Hey, don't wear outthe hand. Okay. I intend to
notify the society at the time timesthat this was the eye point of the
season as lumn zip peak. Whatan imas you are? What a dream
Jacques Lemon, very big in perfume, champagne martinis over here, very good,
(22:29):
sir, h Now, this iswhat I call a miracle. Best
martinis I ever conjured, the absolutepeak. I better not drink. I
get silly when I do. Sayall minds of crazy things come with me.
If you think this is something,look in the other room. Where
are we going? Your boudoir?All yours, my dear, part of
(22:55):
the miracle. You have got tobe kidding me. I never I've been
seen around bed before except in themovies. Is that satin on the wall?
Want to try something? Now youwait a minute? No, no,
no, push the button there onthe wall. You mean there's a
(23:15):
whole nother room full of clothes thatis your closet. No, it's bigger
in my apartment. Oh, mydarling, Agnes. A perfectly stupendous party.
I just told Wilfrid that nobody inthe world can throw a party like
Agnes Gref. You just ask himif I didn't say that, no one
in the world. My dear Wilfrid, do you think you've had enough champagne?
(23:38):
Wilfred? Well, well it's ablast, isn't it. Yeah,
real crazy time to mingle with yourconstituents, Agnes, go on, get
out there. If you say so, mister Cavender, I guess I can
give it a try. Oh,darling, Agnes, do you said Max?
(24:00):
Tell me who designed that dress?Come over here and meet my friends
from the club. Ah, fabulousparty if I do say so. The
beverages too, absolutely fabulous. Whatwhat? Oh? Yes? The party
(24:34):
a real blast, a humdinger.Cavender, you have outdone yourself. What
time is it, early, sir? Where is everybody? They've all gone
home? Sir? Oh? Andmiss Grep is she she's gone on an
Errand sir, you're the last onein the penthouse. Oh did she say
(24:56):

earth did you expect? What doyou want from me? Not much of
anything, really, I didn't expectanything except except what friends? Maybe?
Excuse me? Kay? What doyou say? Slugger? And Aggie's back,
(27:17):
and is she got candy for you? She's got copstead. That's not
a candy bar. No, honey, it's not a candy bar. It's
a bottle of perfume. It costsone hundred bucks an ounce. Big deal.
Huh, you know what. Iwish it were a chocolate bar.
Come on, Teddy, leave thelady alone. Come back up here.
(27:40):
This is Ranny. That's okay,it's me, Aggie. Come on back
for your breakfast. I told you, don't bother the lady, says Ranny.
It's Aggie. Don't let this sablecoat throw you driver. Take the
lady back to the Savoy Arms.Yes, sir, no, not the
Savoy Arms. How's that? Nomore Park Avenue in fifty eighth. I
(28:04):
don't want to go back there.I want to stay here. Why I'll
never win my wings now I'll bedrummed out, I'll be reclassified. Didn't
we have a wonderful time? Don'tyou have everything you want? Mister Cavender?
You want to make me the happiestgirl in the world, then knock
(28:27):
it off with the park Avenue,panhouse, the sable, the whole bit.
I want it the way it was, the way it was unstable,
unresolved and unemployed, disconnected, discombuboratedand behind ad my rent. But that's
for me. That in bowling,babysitting and potato pancakes. How about it,
(28:49):
mister Cavender? All right, missgrep but I think you're making an
awful mistake. I tried, Godknows, I try. Can you hear
me up there? You can't takethat away from me? What do you
say? Egg? Top of themorning, Joe Aggy on this potato pancake
(29:18):

in a minute. Hi egg,Hi missus Randy. I hope you don't
mind. I bought something for thekids. Hi Aggy, here you go,
(29:40):
here's a chocolate bar for you andsome candies for you. Thank lgdie
No, thank you you beautiful,gorgeous children. I just wish it was
more, mister Cavender, can youhear me? Yes? Oh I sure.
(30:07):
I am glad you're here because Iwanted to say thanks a whole bunch.
It was wonderful knowing you, wonderfulknowing you, Miss greb Excuse me,
what's that, Chief, Yes,sir, I'll be there right away,
(30:34):
Cavender checking in, Sir, Iwas just looking over the report we
received on you conduct unbecoming an angel, gin mentonic consumption, gin fizz consumption,
jin on the rocks, extra drymartinis, general inebriation. Need I
go on, Cavendar, You're adisgrace to the entire service. I'm sorry,
(30:56):
sir, I truly I'm afraid.You know what this means, reclassifications,
at least reclassification. I know it. I expected it. I hate
to do this, Cavender, Ireally do. As a matter of factor.
Hey, Chief, look at this? What why? This is incredible?
(31:17):
It is see for yourself. Chief, come over here. My eyes
aren't so hot lately, tried,Chief, you can do it. Where
are you appointing lean over the edge. That planet there, the little blue
and green one, yeah, chuck, the island of Manhattan, the lower
part. She's She's happy. Sheis, isn't she? She looks at
(31:38):
least six times happier than when Ifound her. She's incredibly, deliriously totally
happy. And don't understand how thatcould be, but I tell you she
is, sir. See what she'sdoing now? What is that costume?
She's wearing a bowling shirt. Ibelieve it's called say again bowling, sir?
(32:00):
She bowls every Thursday night. FascinatingAnd is she supposed to keep her
finger in the ball after it startsrolling down the lane? Ooh, no,
sir, she still hasn't quite gotthe hang of it. I do
hope she didn't hurt herself. Hmm, well, Cavendar, it seems I
may have been premature in my judgment. Oh, after all, your assignment
(32:22):
was to make her happy, andthat's precisely the way she is now.
So there seems to be very littleleft to do except go on, sir.
I'm all ears, I noticed.I think under the circumstances, Cavender,
since you've done so very well withthe subject, yes, Well,
it occurs to me that there areother deserving subjects down there who may require
(32:43):
a little a jelly consistence from timeto time. Oh, definitely, no
doubt. Each of them could beyour personal projects, so to speak.
How do you like that? Andmy wings, Sir will reopen that issue
later on, but for the moment, we'll start abassier on the people you'll
be assigned to. In a strangeway, I feel rather sorry for them.
(33:07):
Cavendar, Cavendar, are you listening? Chapter one in the Saga of

You're traveling through another dimension, adimension not only of sight and sound,
but of mind, a journey intoa wondrous land whose boundaries are those of
imagination. Your next stop the TwilightZone. All right, ladies and gentlemen,
(00:36):
let's begin with the field reports.Who wants to go first? I
will, sir, proceed. Idon't want to spend all eternity on this,
yes, sir. First up isAngel first class, Scott Cousins assignment
Orion Project Evening Miracles job rating excellent, good man, real stuff. Next,
I have a report on Angel's secondclass William Allen assignment Beetlejuice Project,
(01:00):
Planet Rotation and Weather Job rating excellent. Hmmm, that's his third good rating
this month. Recommend him for promotionto first class. I concur chief right
on down the line miracle wise.He's done tremendous things. First class.
It shall be moving on Criston,Yes, sir, Well how about the
occupied planets? How about them?Oh? I'd say solid results all the
(01:22):
way down the line, Chief,with the possible exception, with a possible
exception of what Apprentice Angel Harmon Cavender, Sir, what's his assignment? Earth?
Earth? It's the dinky one,sir, in the Solar system,
the third planet from the Sun.Oh, yes, that's the noisy one
with all the trouble spots. Andso who did you send down there,
(01:45):
Cavender? Yes, sir, I'mafraid so he'll forgive me, Criston,
But there's a question of judgment here. The last time you sent Harmon Cavender
out on a project, we lostthree planets and it took a thousand years
to repair the damage. May Iask why we're still using that man?
He means well, sir, andhe's the oldest angel we have. By
the laws of seniority, he hasfirst rites to any assignment that will win
(02:07):
him his wings. It'll be acold day in the other place when Harmon
Cavender wins his wings. The manis an idiot. I hate to do
this, but I think it's timefor reclassification. Oh no, forgive me,
sir, but we haven't had areclassification of an angel and at least
an eon. This will most likelywell destroy poor Cavender's spirit. Destroy his
(02:30):
spirit, eh, and what hashe done to our morale? Not to
mention the Miracles Bureau, the Solarsystems and the whole concept of natural and
unnatural laws? Why the man isincorrigible? His last project on Earth do
you recall it? Well, hewas supposed to be working on a magic
elixir which would benefit the people ofthe planet. That's right. And after
(02:53):
he went missing for one hundred andthirteen years, what did that elixir turn
out to be? Gin? Onehundred and thirteen years? And there he
sat an apprentice angel with the powerof miracles, the prerogatives of a celestial
entity, the acquired wisdom of onebillion eons. And what is his accomplishment?
(03:14):
The repeal of prohibition? With yourpermission, Chief, what what's your
recommendation? Now? That man won'twin his wings no matter the time,
the place, the circumstances. Withthe Chief's permission, I could assign him
to a very minor project. Imean, put him on an individual case,
a relatively unimportant one, like whatone of the Class D problems?
(03:36):
You know, Chief, as we'vedone on occasion, pick out one Earth
inhabitant who seems unable to function withoutsome kind of heavenly aid. Have you're
someone in mind? We could findsuch a person. Where how about that
one down there? Orient me?My eyes aren't what they used to be
(03:58):
gp Agnes twenty six, habitat NewYork City, unable to hold a position,
constantly in debt, accident prone,somewhat somewhat discomboborated. Any change there
would be a marked improvement. Nowright you are, But apprentice Angel Harmon
Cavender, the girl needs help,not more trouble. We could give it
(04:21):
a try, sir. Well,let's see what he has to say for
himself. Some of them at once, Yes, sir, right away,
sir. Now submitted for your approval, the case of one miss Agnes Grepp,
whom we are about to meet upclose and personal. As you will
soon see, she was put onearth with two left feet, an over
(04:44):
abundance of thumbs, and a propensityfor falling down manholes. In a moment,
she will be up to her jawin miracles wrought by an apprentice angel
named Harmon Cavender, who is intenton winning his wings. Though it's a
fact that both of them should havestood in bed. They are about to
tempt all the fates by moving intosome particularly tricky territory known only as the
(05:10):
Twilight Zone. And now the TwilightZone and our story, Cavendar is coming
starring Andrea Evans with Stacy Keach asyour narrator. Excuse me, yes,
is this the third Celestial Division?Yes, sir, Angel Placement Bureau,
(05:31):
that's correct. Do you have anappointment? Yes, I'm looking for a
mister Henry Polk, our supervisor.And you are Cavender Harmon Cavender. Ah,
yes, we've been expecting you.Go right in. Thank you you
(05:56):
called me chief. There you areCavendar. I presume nice you have here.
I like the cloud effect makes itlook like infinite space out there.
It is infinite. Oh, theprintis Angel Cavender. It has come to
our attention that you are the onlyangel in your class not to have won
his wings. Sad but true,not for want of trying, I can
(06:17):
assure you. It has further cometo our attention that you are a cloud.
A cloud, sir, never mindbefore reclassifying you reclassify, We're going
to give you one more chance.Walk over to the edge with me and
look down through the cloud cover,I mean cloud cover. What do you
see? Oh? Which one theone in the theater with the costume the
(06:43):
husherets. I believe they call themnice looking girl? You think so good?
She's your next project. Oh thankyou, sir. I especially like
the uniform she's wearing, very militarywith epaulets. And what's that on her
head? Is that a fez?Haven't seen one of those in ages quite
a few ages. You will returnto Earth and supply her with aid,
(07:05):
assistance and advice for a period oftwenty four hours. If you are able
to improve her lot in any significantway, we will reopen your case.
You mean there's a possibility of gettingmy wings, It would be taken under
advisement. Actually, Kevinda, thereseems to be considerable question about the damage
(07:26):
you can do with just arms andlegs, not to mention wings or your
mouth. However, we've graciously consentedto give you one more opportunity. You
have twenty four hours to see what, if anything, you can do with

Oh well, that showbiz just plainfickle. I guess what's the difference
between me and all those women inthe movies? Classy sophisticated A boss?
(12:01):
You got a bus pass? Notas such. I wanted to get one,
but then I thought, of Idid, I might lose it and
then I'd be out all that money, so I never got one. In
thee I put your quarters in amachine where did you come from. Don't
panic, miss grep above all,don't panic. If you'll give me just
(12:24):
a moment, I can explain itspanicked. I almost missed the bus,
that's all, but you didn't thanksto you. On the contrary, I
know this will come as rather ashock to you, but I happened to
be a guardian angel. Say whendid you get on? I didn't see
you. The whole bus was empty. And then indeed I arranged it that
way as I was saying, didyou pay? I don't have to pay.
(12:48):
I'm an angel. Oh yeah,where are your wings? Then that's
a long story. In point offact, I've been given twenty four hours
to help you out in every waypossible. This does not preclude the use
of miracles. As I say,I know this is going to shock you,
but I happened to be your angel. Don't worry about it. I
(13:09):
daydream a lot myself. Last weekI daydreamed I was an astronaut. I
made one hundred and eleven orbits beforemister Goldfarb fired me. Mister Goldfarb,
he ran the delicatessen where I wasworking. I took care of the steam
table all day long, and that'swhere I used to do most of my
daydreaming. Wouldn't you? Wouldn't youat least like to see a little miracle?
(13:30):
Okay, that makes you feel better? Like what? Well, for
example, instead of a run ofthe mill bus that everybody uses, how
about a nice, flashy, chauffeurdriven convertible. Would that be something?
All right? Then? Here goesis that it? I have a way
of fouling these things up. Butif you'll give me just a second to
(13:52):
concentrate, Wow, cuchral part.Well, at least it's a carriage with
a convert to top. A driveronce around the park, if you please?
What is going on here? Whathappened to my buss? Oh?
I'm so sorry. You don't knowhow to handle horses, do you?
Of course? Not a small miscalculation. Lincoln Continental real snazzy, that's more
(14:18):
like it. A driver take usto the lady's residence. What is the
exact address? You ain't taking nobodynowhere in this here car. I signed
on the driver bus. Oh allright. From here on out, folks,
(14:39):
you're on your own. When thesupervisor comes to claim the bus,
tell him I resigned. Well,miss Grepp, what have you got to
say now, excuse me, well, where are you going? What do
you think I'm going home? Thisis my stuff? Wait miss grep please
wait, hey Aggie, Hi there. How's my favorite little girl today?
(15:16):
Okay? Been playing? Yeah?I'll bet you had fun. Huh,
Well, it would be more funif you could play with me. How
come you have to go to work? Not anymore? I don't I play
with you tomorrow. Okay, we'llgo to the park. Promise you come
over and knock on my door inthe morning and we'll go. Okay,
okay, see a Aggie, Hi, Yeggi. Hey there, Teddy,
(15:43):
you got any candy today? Ye? Bye, got candy? Look at
this. I brought it all theway from Plonski's Theater just for you,
She thinks, Paggy, can Iask you a question? Sure? Wonder
(16:03):
what is it when you make potatopancakes? Is it three quarters of a
cup of flour and a half anonion or a half a cup of flour
and three quarters of an onion?I think it depends on how much you're
making. I mean, if youmake potato pancakes for four, it's one
cup of flour? Or is itone onion? No? Wait, a
minute. No, maybe it's oneegg and half an onion. How's the
(16:26):
job, Aggie? Hi, Joe? You mean how was it? Oh,
Eggie? You didn't go lose anotherone, did you? Yeah?
Pie went and lost another one allon my own? Which one was this
again? Plonsky's bees? You downtown? I flunked close order, drill.
Listen to me. Don't you worryabout it? None, You'll get another
job, but fast, nice personlike you, Aggie. Well, what's
(16:48):
the matter, Sweetie? I brokemy cookie? Oh sweet baby, aunt
Aggie has a cookie for you.You like it? Huh m hm.
And Aggie's got to go now,but I'll give you another cookie later,
would you like that? Be carefulnow, don't drop it. Don't panic.
(17:25):
I know, I know. SayI thought I left you back there?
Perish the thought. How did youget in my apartment? It was
a lot. As I told you, I'll be with you for twenty four
hours, twenty three hours and thirtyone minutes to be exact. Don't you
ever give up? How could I? I'm here to change your life,
Miss Grepp. As interesting place you'vegot here. I like it, oh,
(17:48):
I do too, particularly the stuffedanimals and the kepie dolls who've been
collecting them for some time, haven'tyou. If you'll excuse me, I
have got to take these shoes off. My feet are killing me. Let's
get down to business, shall we? What kind of business? In a
case like this, I usually examinethe most pressing problems and then formulate a
(18:10):
plan to alleviate them. Me too, Only whenever I make a plan,
something always happens, you know,like a fly in the ointment. Is
that an expression? My mother usedto say that whenever my father made plans,
Like the time he went into businessraising rock cornish game heads. It
was a great plan. Let metell you, I think the way to
attack this employment problem of would youlike something to drink? Oh? Yes,
(18:33):
that is no, I really shouldn't, as I would say for coffee.
You look like a tea man tome. I think I've got some
tea bag somewhere. Don't trouble you'resaying? How about a beer? Oh?
H no? No, Now,why don't we fix it so that
you're independently wealthy and don't even needemployment? Uh? What kind? I've
(18:53):
got some sherry? I don't thinkso. Now, my dear young lady,
we are discussing the alteration of yourentire future. For the moment,
we can dispense with the convivialities andproceed directly to it to Yes, you
wouldn't happen to have any gin wouldyou buy any chance? Just lying around
(19:18):
going to waste right? Not?Oh but I could run down to missus
Riani's apartment. Her husband makes itwell, sort of. You see.
He starts with what do you callit? Neutral grain spirits? And then
he adds these slow gin berry No, thank you, I've had that kind
manufactured in a bathtub, as Irecall. But back to business. First
off, you can't live here?Why not? Something wrong with this place?
(19:42):
Not at all? But it wouldn'tfit in with your new lifestyle.
I happen to know that there isa penthouse available right now at the Savoy
Arms. Where's that park Avenue andfifty eighth a penthouse? And how would
I pay for it on my salary? Even if I a salary, My
dear, there are all sorts ofways. Hey, buster, I am
(20:04):
not that kind of girl, Dearlady, I have no doubt, but
please try to grasp the situation.As of this moment, you are independently
wealthy. Now, why would yousay a thing like that? Watch this
nothing up my sleeve? Where didthat come from? Look closely? This
(20:26):
is an absolutely genuine statement from theNew York National Bank savings account number six
sixty one oh three, in thename of miss Agnes Grep. You think
maybe there's another Agnes Grep. Iseriously doubt it. The total balance in
liquid assets is up, but perhapsyou should read the figure for yourself.
I like to use odd numbers,by the way, an esthetic preference on
(20:49):
my part more pleasing to the eye. Don't you agree? I think you'd
like to use too many zeros too, don't you Perhaps you should sit down
now Onto social activities. I gobowling on Thursdays. Bowling smawling. That's
okay for pin setters, not fora park avenue debutante. Who's a debutant?
(21:15):
Look around? I think you'll getmy drift if I do say so
myself. I'm getting pretty good atthis. Look at the way they're all
dressed taxism and evening gowns, andme with these raddy clothes. Oh oops,
there, I hope you like thecolon. A perfectly charming party.
(21:37):
Agnes, my dear, and youruvershing, absolutely revershing. Oh, thank
you very much. I guess AnthonyChumley. Chumley builds and operates ocean liners.
The young lady is Miss DARLINGE CarruthersMorgan Jones. Her father is president
of the bank where your money isMedeu. You are exquisite and chanting,
(22:03):
delightful. Hey, don't wear outthe hand. Okay. I intend to
notify the society at the time timesthat this was the eye point of the
season as lumn zip peak. Whatan imas you are? What a dream
Jacques Lemon, very big in perfume, champagne martinis over here, very good,
(22:29):
sir, h Now, this iswhat I call a miracle. Best
martinis I ever conjured, the absolutepeak. I better not drink. I
get silly when I do. Sayall minds of crazy things come with me.
If you think this is something,look in the other room. Where
are we going? Your boudoir?All yours, my dear, part of
(22:55):
the miracle. You have got tobe kidding me. I never I've been
seen around bed before except in themovies. Is that satin on the wall?
Want to try something? Now youwait a minute? No, no,
no, push the button there onthe wall. You mean there's a
(23:15):
whole nother room full of clothes thatis your closet. No, it's bigger
in my apartment. Oh, mydarling, Agnes. A perfectly stupendous party.
I just told Wilfrid that nobody inthe world can throw a party like
Agnes Gref. You just ask himif I didn't say that, no one
in the world. My dear Wilfrid, do you think you've had enough champagne?
(23:38):
Wilfred? Well, well it's ablast, isn't it. Yeah,
real crazy time to mingle with yourconstituents, Agnes, go on, get
out there. If you say so, mister Cavender, I guess I can
give it a try. Oh,darling, Agnes, do you said Max?
(24:00):
Tell me who designed that dress?Come over here and meet my friends
from the club. Ah, fabulousparty if I do say so. The
beverages too, absolutely fabulous. Whatwhat? Oh? Yes? The party
(24:34):
a real blast, a humdinger.Cavender, you have outdone yourself. What
time is it, early, sir? Where is everybody? They've all gone
home? Sir? Oh? Andmiss Grep is she she's gone on an
Errand sir, you're the last onein the penthouse. Oh did she say
(24:56):
where? Something very pressing? Ishould say? Would you care for a
continental breakfast? Sir? A bloodyMary? The agnes agness? Wait here
(25:19):

Coach? Sister? Are you slumming? Joe? Hi? Sweetie? Are

Honey? Don't you? Mom saidnot to talk to strangers? Oh?
There you are. She doesn't knowme, of course not. And my

And you know what, Joe,my neighbor said, Miss Grepp, You
can't have your cake, can alsoeat it that if somebody's got to pay
the fiddler or something along those land. What does that mean? Well,
you know yourself. It's a kindof a give and take thing, a
(26:53):
life, I mean, the wholephilosophy of living. Well, what on
earth did you expect? What doyou want from me? Not much of
anything, really, I didn't expectanything except except what friends? Maybe?
Excuse me? Kay? What doyou say? Slugger? And Aggie's back,
(27:17):
and is she got candy for you? She's got copstead. That's not
a candy bar. No, honey, it's not a candy bar. It's
a bottle of perfume. It costsone hundred bucks an ounce. Big deal.
Huh, you know what. Iwish it were a chocolate bar.
Come on, Teddy, leave thelady alone. Come back up here.
(27:40):
This is Ranny. That's okay,it's me, Aggie. Come on back
for your breakfast. I told you, don't bother the lady, says Ranny.
It's Aggie. Don't let this sablecoat throw you driver. Take the
lady back to the Savoy Arms.Yes, sir, no, not the
Savoy Arms. How's that? Nomore Park Avenue in fifty eighth. I
(28:04):

never win my wings now I'll bedrummed out, I'll be reclassified. Didn't
we have a wonderful time? Don'tyou have everything you want? Mister Cavender?
You want to make me the happiestgirl in the world, then knock

I want it the way it was, the way it was unstable,
unresolved and unemployed, disconnected, discombuboratedand behind ad my rent. But that's
for me. That in bowling,babysitting and potato pancakes. How about it,
(28:49):
mister Cavender? All right, missgrep but I think you're making an
awful mistake. I tried, Godknows, I try. Can you hear
