All language subtitles for S1E00 - (Pilot) The Invisible Man

okay

uh

okay

nick maggio nick was the only
one i'd ever told about my work

and if he couldn't help me then no one could

as i waited for him to finish i
realized it was the first time that i'd

really thought about what i'd done

in the beginning there had been only
success and the excitement of discovery

and kate anyone home in the kitchen

morning mrs weston good morning mr
weston you know what i want to do what

i'll be late for work so what so what i have
a boss who's furious if i'm late for work

i'll have to have a word with him you
do that you better get going yourself

no i have to take a cold shower first

oh god

it had all begun at the clay corporation
a kind of glorified think tank

i was working on the transmitting of objects from
one place to another using laser beam projection

tele transportation science fiction stuff
if you like but the clay corporation thought

enough of my theories to put up the
money for a very expensive prototype

morning doctor good morning doctor
there's coffee on the burner

where the eggs benedict the only thing you're
gonna get for breakfast this morning is heartburn

carlson he called about 10 minutes ago demanding
a progress report terrific daniel we felt known

this had to come sooner or later i wish we could
stall him a little longer what are you getting

why are you always so bloody right

walter carlson was my boss his way of handling

people was about as warm as his
corridors but i had been stalling

i wasn't ready to tell walter what i was up to
because it was a an offshoot of the main project

but i needed the funds to continue dan these
additional requests they're absolutely necessary

yes i'm having a terrible time justifying
the price of phase one that gizmo yours

cost a million and a half i've got a budget looks
like 10 pounds of fertilizer in a nine pound bag

so so give me a break i need results if i'm
gonna write home for more money come on walt

you know i'm not ready we've only made
a beginning now don't kid a kidder

you've been working on teletransportation
for eight months now you spent a million

and a half dollars i respected your
desire to work in secrecy but no more

well it's still premature time
to let me be the judge of that

okay

thank you now we're working on a process

whereby we transport matter from one
point to another at the speed of light

in order to do that we first have to transform
that matter right or i would think so yeah

uh do you have a pen

keep your eye on a pen

that's it a million and a half and that's it dan
i think what he's trying to say what i'm trying

to say is you've been working on this device
for eight months acting like a guy who's just

about to invent the first can opener and what
have you got a laser disintegrator terrific

the russians have only had one for
18 months the pentagon's developed

third generation weaponry based on the
principle and france in case you didn't know

will have an operational weapon any day
now and lastly damn it there was a 50 pen

mata can neither be created nor destroyed remember

come here it can however be changed into
another form what is this a gag it's no guy

john try it all right take the pen

i don't believe it believe
it sign those work orders

huh

why didn't you tell me about this when preparing
objects and animals for teletransportation we

stumbled across the technique of invisibility i
didn't want to say anything about it until i knew

the process was stable did you say animals yes
we've had some success in making rabbits disappear

some how much is some but we haven't lost any

literally or figuratively that's
incredible will it work on a man

it's possible is it a permanent process no i don't
know how or why yet but whatever we make invisible

spontaneously appears after several hours you'll
get your pen back this afternoon you know what you

got here don't you there's an invisible pen don't
be cute what you got here is the ultimate weapon

walter invisible soldiers invisible battalions
just think of their military advantage

you gave me your guarantee i came here
because you said i wouldn't have to

work on weapon systems anymore i want to use
invisibility in positive ways name one well

given the time we can apply constructively
all kinds of problems besides did you give

me a promise or didn't you this is a hell of
a time you listened to me we've been working

fire me if you like but i think he's right look
we're arguing application when we should be

celebrating a remarkable achievement
we made a commitment let's honor it

you're absolutely right i'm sorry dan you got
cart plans it's your baby take as much time

as you like i'll scare up the funds not from
the pentagon not from the pentagon there's the

hunter foundation the starter grant we'll find
it somewhere meantime you keep steiner here at

rest of your progress all right fine and listen
my friend i am really impressed thanks rick

i want a daily progress report
on that work and tighten up it

securely i don't want any leaks not even
within the company i'll take care of it

good and rick keep him on the track you know
how it goes in ten directions at once i don't

want him fooling with all kinds of other
junk i want that system and i want it faster

get me gentle turner in the pentagon and use red

line too i wanted to scramble mr
carlson you've got a lot of other

walter you gave him your word don't be an ass

i think if i'd known what carlson was up to
i'd have pulled the plug right there and then

but i didn't know

i was too busy guarding a secret of my own you
see i was very close to making a man invisible

in fact i only had one problem to solve
in our experiments with animals we had

discovered that the time it took for them
to return to visibility was unpredictable

we needed control over the periods of invisibility
so i developed a serum which gave us that control

by use of the serum we were able to bring
an animal back to visibility at will

even before any object that he might be

wearing

i knew then i could make a man invisible

and i knew that man had to be me i was ready
to take the risk all i needed was an excuse

daniel

do you come here often sailor how about coming
back to my place my husband's up to lunch

what what are you doing i've had an idea about the
serum tell me we can use it to fight cancer how

well we modify the serum so that it only works on
cancerous cells we make a patient invisible inject

him with a serum his cancer cells become visible
before the rest of his body that way we can detect

cancer long before it would appear on normal
x-rays i think that's a wonderfully exciting idea

why don't you give it to somebody else to
work on why because you can't do everything

if you keep jumping around from one thing
to another nothing will ever get finished

you're an alarmist i'm serious it's a flaw it's
your achilles heel and it scares me sometimes

and i'm sorry it's not as if i had any choice
don't you see but i couldn't slow down what

goes on in my head even if i wanted to it simply
the way i have to work danny i'm not trying to

change you i don't want to sound like the
abandoned housewife on anything but that

i do think though that for both our sakes
we deserve more of each other's time

away from the lab

yeah you're right i i don't get awfully selfish
don't i yes you do but i love you anyway

all right i'm yours for the rest of the evening
what would you like to do go home and improvise

is that a proposition very good dr
weston and you gotta learn the first try

danny

i'm right here what's the matter nothing
no sleep you're coming back to bed

um

kate my mind was racing
the idea of being invisible

it was all i could think about i had
to try it on myself that very night

hi harvey how you doing

oh you look great in fact you look perfect

absolutely normal

and for being absolutely normal you're a reward

come on

hmm

so

do

anybody home i'm here in the
kitchen were you out jogging uh-huh

morning mrs weston morning mr weston

you know i can't read when you do that
there well how about here stop it danny

daniel

make a great cup of coffee with you weston

hey don't do this to me it's okay take it
easy it's not okay you had no one wait please

where are you i'm right here i i
can't see you why did you do it why

i'm sorry i i didn't mean to scare you like that
but i had to do it i just had to and don't worry

i know there's no problem how do you know i'm fine
i feel great what if something goes wrong nothing

will and even if it does i'll be visible in an
hour or so you don't know that i didn't i do now

come on drive me to the lab i want to try this
serum on myself before it wears off please

modesty compels me to put this on since my clothes
will be appearing much later than the rest of me

yeah syringe

ugh

dan that's absolutely incredible
congratulations both of you well

i think congratulations are premature dr weston
in our most unprofessional display of exuberance

took a totally unnecessary and dangerous risk
i think showboating is the appropriate term

i had to see if it would work or
whether i was wasting your money and

my time you haven't done either

i get my funds stop by my office
about five we'll talk about it

problems no no problems just be there

hi go right in dr weston they're expecting you
thank you five o'clock on the dan i'd like you

to meet general turner and colonel's doyle lie
decker captain fairbanks delighted dr weston

walter the work was much too important not to
let them know about it besides you need more

funding lots more and there's just no place
else to get it so you know how i feel about

that well i think your concerns are misguided
doctor if every great discovery known to man

had been withheld because of its potential
for evil which in itself is a relative term

and we'd still be in the dark ages
there's nothing relative about it

you want to make a weapon i don't the possibility
for a weapon exists nonetheless that's why i'd

rather this invention were under the protective
umbrella of the military then run the risk of

it falling into the wrong hands as far as i'm
concerned the u.s military is the wrong hands

all to any military is the wrong hands
we don't need them doctor where do you

think your funds have been coming from the hunter
foundation the stoddard grant the in-house funds

at least that's what you told me i didn't want to
bother you with my problems you sold me out call

it what you like but the decisions regarding who
works on what and for whom are made solely by me

well there's just no way i'm going to turn my work
over read your contract the clay corporation owns

everything you do you write a letter home to your
mother we own it and they own you the bottom line

is they're paying the freight they can do what
they want and you can't withhold anything watch me

security this is mr carlson i want
two armed guards in dr weston's lab

immediately to remove him and
mrs weston from the premises

they are not to be allowed back on the grounds
without my expressed approval is that clear

you want to get cute be my guest

if you change your mind let me know otherwise
i'm turning your work over to someone else

two armed guards and i flew it kate i really blew

i should have seen it coming and i didn't stop
blaming yourself if only i'd listened to you

if only i'd moved more slowly this would never
have happened yes it would have sooner or later

i'm proud of you for what you
said to them did you know that

what do you want can i come in no richard
i'm sorry yes of course you can thanks

okay i hope you've come with some good news um
i'm afraid not danny's not gonna budge you'll

have to be the one i can't look i'm on your side
are you why do you think he left you alone as long

as he did you know him he does what he wants
and either of us is in a position to stop him

i stalled him at least as long as i could you
have a message from walter then deliver it

i don't i came on my own to beg you to reconsider

i won't

if you're not back tomorrow carlson will bring
a team right in now it'll take him time but

they'll figure it out not if i destroy it first
you can't be serious it works too important to

talk about destroying it why it's all in my head
and i'd like to see walt move a team in up here

don't joke about it if he has to he can
do that too yes well before i let him do

that i'd go public i'd spill the beans if you
think he'd let you do that you're being naive

come here

look there

get used to them they're yours from
now on whether you like it or not

this is ridiculous

look there's a side of this business you've never
seen before either of you i normally wouldn't see

but there's too much at stake here look your
only hope is to go in there kiss his ring and

fight for what you believe in from the inside and
for what it's worth you'll have my support 100

yeah richard i need time to think i understand
it isn't easy with the gestapo out there

i'll see what i can do

um it's got to be now i'll never get another
chance you do understand that don't you

yes i'm just a little scared that's all

someone

foreign

food i have red alert indicated at the south
perimeter of the grounds do you confirm

i'm sorry to interrupt your meeting server we seem

to have a break in uh whoever it is trip
to silent alarm no sir we don't know yet

alarm system indicates an unauthorized entry

into his lab all right i want him
apprehended but i don't want any

violence

dan dan come out of there

all right break it down

um

where is it close those doors
both of them close them quickly

come on now dan give yourself
up before it's too late

i'm gonna hit all of it calling this
room from one end to the other side you

can't see him but if he makes a move you'll
hear him spread out join hands and split up

so

i ditched the jeep made my way back home on foot

by the time i got there a few hours later
we had company standing there wondering

what to do i suddenly realized that i
lost all track of time i was becoming

visible

kate was right i never did anticipate consequences
there i was surrounded by carlson's people

i had to get out of there i had to
go somewhere to to think things out

i'd like a room keith single double poolside
view you name it we got it from any room

this is mr bellamy in room 116.
i'd like a local line please

hello kate the phone i know i just
wanted you to know that i'm all right

danny i love you bye

no

come on come on come on what's
happening why isn't it working

hey mister you got a guy in
room 116 sounds like he's dying

open up in there open up mister now

check the bathroom hey he's not in there well
he couldn't have disappeared into thin air

hey he left us close

the pain finally stopped but i was terrified
that i'd somehow become permanently invisible

i knew there was only one place i
could go one man who could help me

nick maggio but after a couple of hours i
was colder than i'd ever been in my life

and i knew that if i didn't get in
somewhere warm for the night i was gonna die

when the truck stopped for the night i started to
break into a grocery store for food and shelter

what i found instead was trouble

i ran until i could run no further i was
beginning to panic then i got my first break

uh

who's in here

i can hear you i know you're here don't be
frightened i i won't hurt you i don't have

much money but you're gonna have what
i got no just give me something to eat

if i feed you will you go not right
away i can't leave until morning

on the run stop asking so many questions i've
told you i won't hurt you isn't that enough take

it easy take it easy young man why don't you
go over and sit in the big chair by the fire

good now how about a nice ham sandwich anything
can be fine good stay away from the phone

i better take you to the hospital come on no
come on no no your place all right easy come on

come on

no that's all right i can manage

how badly hurt are you it's just a flesh

how can i clean it if i can't see
it i'll give it here i'll do it

thanks

huh

ugh i'm sorry

tetanus yeah

there we are

daniel would you mind doing it well i
can try good cause i'm a little shaky

ouch where's it going i mean how come
i don't see it going into your arm

anything i take into my body drugs
food whatever becomes invisible

and anything leaving my body i
like the blood it becomes visible

i need a drink

nick yeah do you have any old clothes
i could put on i really am freezing

sure

here we go

ah

you know what i remember daniel no what

i remember you always saying you wanted to
accomplish something that no one else had

well my friend

how about a drink thanks

oh no that wasn't very clever no harm dan
that's okay do you have any old gloves gloves

i keep misjudging the distance to things when
i can't see my hands i should have a surgical

if it isn't halloween you are in a
lot of trouble i am your left hand

okay

as i stood there watching nick put the
gloves on my hands i knew that i could

never spend the rest of my life invisible i
had assumed nick could help me but could he

now is the time to find out so i got out of there
grabbed a ride in the back of an old van and made

my way back here you think anyone will be looking
for you here i doubt it you know you can stay with

me as long as you want i can't stay anywhere like
this i've got to get back kate doesn't know where

i am or what's happened maybe it's better that
way well i need her well then bring her here how

her phone's tapped she's being watched now i've
got to go to her it's too risky you don't even

have a plan well you think about it you almost got
killed getting here now how are you going to get

back like that well maybe i do have a plan maybe
that's why i came here in the first place what are

you talking about well you're a plastic surgeon
build me a face impossible in your last letter

you wrote to me and told me you've developed a
capability what did you call it dermaplex sure

my method is a grafting process it's strictly for
surgical situations and why can't you modify it

well i don't know

i really don't know and frankly i
haven't had too many invisible patients

yeah well you've got one uh well
suppose it doesn't work i'll sue

hmm

would have to be realistic enough
to fool even the closest observer

well if anybody can do it you can you're
one of the best around no the best around

okay i'll take the shot be sitting around doing
nothing i'll get on it first thing in the morning

this stuff is a fast drying
dermaplex compound i've developed

it's as tough as your own skin it's kind of like
the epidermal equivalent of an artificial organ

i designed it originally for
tremendous adherence properties

we don't want that here i want to be able
to have it come off clean like a mask here

it looks awful of course it does now i'm just
testing it for strength and flexibility once i've

got the proper modifications i'll paint it right
on you sculpt it exactly to your features and i'll

fool around with various pigments so we max your
normal skin tones yeah this should be dry by now

daniel this might do it okay
well just tell me when tonight

i'll leave the rest of the day to
mix another batch what about my eyes

i'm having a special set of contact
lenses made they'll be ready late today

all right let's try these

keep closed hmm

close open

uh that is great okay closeup do your lids first

i've combined several compounds this
stuff is incredibly light and thin

it should conform absolutely
to the contours of your face

and if it keeps its resiliency
i think we're home free

now it's gonna look a little weird till
i start to work on it i've made it porous

you probably won't sweat more
than normal and you realize

you'll have to take the mask off
every six to eight hours for a while

what do you think you're
gonna have to watch out for

is the beard you'll have to shave at
least oh i'd say a couple of times a day

if you don't

the h is gonna drive you crazy as soon
as it dries i'll fit the hairpiece

and the caps your teeth

hey babe

nice to see you again

in the hours that followed nick continued to
work around the clock slowly refining each detail

as the work progressed the
mask began to look so real

that when i finally put it over my own
face it was almost impossible to tell a

difference

when i finally returned
home i was wearing the mask

i was ready to try it on the
one person who knew me best

danny oh daddy it's okay i'm back did they see
you who the men watching the house oh i checked

there's no one out there oh i've been so worried
about you where have you been at nix nick matthews

i missed you oh dead are you all
right oh i am now that you're home

danny what's the matter it's a mask

these two i'm still invisible oh what happened
the process is unstable my only chance of becoming

visible again is to go back start the work over
and try and find out what i made my mistake

okay kate i need you now more
than i've ever needed you

don't go soft on me

hey

are you hungry well i could use some

coffee

after what you've been through
are you prepared to go back

how can you i'm going back as if my only
chance and where else could i get the

facilities money that's involved what if
carlson won't take you back on your terms

i'll work out something with it there's no
reason to expect his attitudes changed the phone

is still tapped i'm still followed everywhere
but my attitude's changed you don't know what

it's been like i'll do whatever i have to to get
that lab rebuilt i'll deal with the consequences

later we could run start the work over someplace
else we'd be running for the rest of our lives

you can't trust him he doesn't know i'm invisible
that's my ace i can get away if i have to

what a question of course we'll take
you back gladly i appreciate it walter

i was delighted to get your phone call

what made you change your mind well i had time to
think while i was away i came to the conclusion

that running didn't solve anything running didn't
solve anything just like that you figured it out

i was away from the two most important
things in my life my wife and my work

i'm afraid i don't believe you down
what do you want a signature in blood

i came back because i i decided that it was time
to start living in the real world whose real world

yours or mine well i hope i've matured enough
so that the two can be compatible i hope so too

my friend because in the real world you cost me
a couple of million dollars a lot of time and

the supreme embarrassment of having everyone
on the trade know we perfected invisibility

how because in the real world
yours and mine there are spies

countries have spies companies
have spies the underworld has spies

everybody wants you now and if they can't
have you alive they'll settle for you dead

if you're trying to scare me congratulations
you're doing a fine job of it

fine and you're asking me to
forgive a lot and i'm willing to

but i must have your absolute word that you're
not gonna soak me for another two million dollars

and then suddenly turn into a blushing bride
again i had my wings pulled once once is enough

you have my absolute word walter

all is forgiven

can we start in the morning of course

tomorrow then welcome home dad

thanks walter oh uh by the way under the
circumstances you can uh call your men

off now what man well the surveillance
on kate i haven't been watching kate

well she says the phone's tapped the house
true not true she's just imagining it she'll

get over it see you in the morning
first thing good night good night dan

oh hi it went okay we start work welcome home dan

what is this this uh this is a gun i'm not
totally at ease with it but my associate

there is so please no sudden moves he's
quite remorseless oh go home richard i

just went with carlson we go back to work at
the lab this has nothing to do with carlson

i'm here on someone else's behalf they're
the ones who've been watching me all along

yeah it's worked out very nicely too kate tells
me you've successfully completed your work

don't be mad at her i said we'd have to kill you
if she didn't tell us everything congratulations

well what are we gonna do we're going to leave
where to to my people i've been very anxious to

get with you well i'm afraid they're going to be
disappointed we know how committed you are to your

point of view that's why we're taking kate with
us you may not care about your own welfare but the

threat to kate's should compel you to cooperate
fully do you know what you're doing of course i

do i don't understand why ten million dollars in
the proverbial numbered swiss account that's why

but you don't have to go
through with i mean you shut up

no more talk please

let's go

we don't turn up at the clay corporation
carlson's gonna be looking for us and you

let him you won't even know where to

begin

now richard you really had me fooled the last
person in the world i thought would sell out

everyone sells out carlson to
the pentagon due to some outdated

sense of morality and me to money
the most honest sellout of all

who's paying the bill for me

it doesn't much matter which is out
of curiosities domestic or foreign

you'll find out soon enough

uh

he's getting out you stay with her

he got out we gotta find him

get in the front now come
back here come back come back

it's no good they're gaining on us

get out and find a phone as soon as
they've gone past call carlson hurry please

the fifth floor

walter just take me home please i'm sorry but i
gotta ask you a couple of questions a man back

there before he died he kept mumbling something
about dan being invisible is that possible

come on kate we've combed every inch
of that van and can't find a body

then he got out but how did he
get out was he still invisible

please kate you've got to tell me no no no
not before you get yeah i've just gotten

if you get up i'll only knock you down again
dan you don't want to make a spectacle of

yourself in front of all these people do
you why did you hit me why did i hit you

let's just call it my declaration of independence
you're all right sir oh yeah yeah i just tripped

on a stone or something it's pretty dark
so you want to watch your set no thanks

give kate the keys to your car
dan what went wrong we've got to

talk and we'll talk when i'm ready
to talk just give her the keys dan

i'm really on your side yeah
i hope so walter i hope so

couldn't resist could you huh

what do we do now dr weston when we go
home and improvise i've never spent the

night with an invisible man before with the
lights out you'll never know the difference

hmm

you
