All language subtitles for 10 - AHH - The day of reckoning

good evening fellow yacht owners this is
not champagne you can see my tastes are much

too simple for that this is not
intended for a christening

it is my ship-to-shore
communication

i realize that my yacht may seem rather
old-fashioned to luxury-minded people

but i find the relationship between a man
and a gasoline engine too coldly impersonal

my engine is far more economical and very quiet
too except for an occasional scream and a cranking

of chains it is also quite speedy this is the
accelerator so much for the simple pleasures

we are presenting a story tonight called day
of reckoning it follows in precisely one minute

sorry partner i lost this one course don't
feel badly my brother and his wife would

develop mental telepathy into a high art harold
she's accusing us of cheating sibling rivalry

you witnessed the crime judge are we
guilty or innocent not enough evidence

would you like to sit in paul i'm sure your
sister be better off without me no thanks

listen who is the man

what's his name i have a right to know
please paul let's not go over it all again

i told you i can't go on i simply want a
divorce you've always said before there

wasn't anybody there never was but this
time there is isn't there you can't deny it

i'm not denying it i want his name you'll know
eventually i'm not to have it now why because

you know you wouldn't get your divorce if i knew
his name is that it i didn't say you don't have to

paul when there was nobody you always thought
there was you always behaved as if there was

you made it impossible long ago for me to go on
loving you difference now does it make if there

is someone i can find the divorce that won't get
me back felicity die please please now i can't

i won't you're not going to
him you can't stop me paul

felicity

i when you felicity like to sit and i'm being
taken to the cleaner no i uh ask her doesn't

she want one of you men to take over the steering
no she doesn't well i wish you'd come and watch

the game i'm playing brilliantly felicity never
thought i was much of a bridge player you never

were darling let that be a listen to you trent
don't get married flattery stops at the altar

she must have brought us around the
passengers will quietly move to the

light boats women and children last well
mr d what's up you better take a look

felicity okay i hear that's impossible

don't worry

anything up there judge no nothing alice made
some coffee no thanks any sign are we going to do

i think we should head back to the house i
know you want us to keep searching paul but

we'll need more help we'll have to call the police

my men are searching the lake now we
should have some results by morning

that is very encouraging we're doing our best mr
sampson now if you folks don't mind i'd like to

ask a few questions can't they wait sheriff this
is hardly the time he's only doing his job carolyn

this is what happened sheriff after dinner
this evening felicity suggested that we take

out the cruiser judge wilcox here happened
to stop by and we invited him to come along

well anyway we were playing bridge and felicity
was at the controls and that's the last we saw

of her she must have fallen overboard that seems
kind of strange doesn't it is samson just losing

her balance like that was she drinking by
any chance she'd had a few martinis how many

would you say i don't really know she wasn't
drunk if that's what you're implying sheriff

i don't believe i know you sir but this is trev
parker he's been our house guest here for the

past few weeks trent parker well i know the name
i'm a golfer and i played here in the tournament

last spring that's where i met the samsons
yes of course pleasure to meet you mr parker

sheriff my brother's very tired why
don't you come back in the morning

well i was gonna ask mr sampson to go out in the
cruiser with me there are a few things i'd like

to clarify for my report at this hour now really
sheriff it's all right carolyn may as well get it

over with dave would you mind coming along with
us no of course not harold and i will be at home

why is this where you ran aground approximately

have you found anything no luck at all sir

i'd like to try to reconstruct the accident
if you don't mind how can you share it well

i can try the coroner is bound to ask a lot of
questions i'd like to have some of the answers

now let me see if i've got it straight all the
people in the cabin except mrs sampson she was

at the controls no no she we were on autopilot she
was sitting right here on the rim now you came out

any particular reason to see if she might like
another drink did she no so i went back inside

and after that she fell overboard it's funny
nobody heard her cry out remember sheriff

the engine was running and the radio was playing
that's true well let's try the experiment

frasier yes i want you to sit on the railing mr
samson will come out of the cabin talk to you

go back in after a while fall overboard give
a shot and swim to shore am i closer well you

can get down to your shorts can you swim hey yes
sir all right headed out and put it on autopilot

now mr sampson if you'd be good enough to
duplicate your actions look is this really

necessary i'm afraid so judge it's a few hours ago
the others are playing cards where were you judged

about here mr sampson you think your
wife might like a refill so you go out

fine

and uh the radio was playing

you can come in now mr sampson

mr sampson

i came back in here and watched the bridge

hey

never mind that i'll have one of my men cleaning
up before we dock excuse me crazy okay yes sir

that's strange isn't it we heard the cry even
though the radio was playing that's because we

were waiting for it last night everyone
was concentrating on the bridge again

yeah even so you'd think someone
would have heard her cry out

unless unless what unless mr samson didn't
cry out at all why didn't she there's always

the possibility she took her own life he'll
be upset felicity had everything to live for

besides if she wanted to commit suicide why do
it this way i'm sure there are easier methods

yeah i suppose so well we better head back and

i'm sorry i've had to put you
through this again mr sampson

paw they find anything nothing yet

perhaps we're here in the morning

i drove into town to get my things
i i didn't want you to be alone

house seems so empty i keep expecting
to hear a voice carolyn yes dear

carolyn i've got to tell you something

i'ma share it with someone what is it felicity was
leaving me leaving you she told me last night well

why did you quarrel or something no no no nothing
like that she was leaving me for another man

i don't believe it neither did i first who
was it she didn't tell me but i think i know

paul

hey would you excuse me i was just going
to get a nightcap can i get you something

nice

ken he's mistaken for weeks hasn't he you've
been giving her golf lessons every day how long

it's incredible i'm not sure
not yet but i'm gonna find out

what difference can it make now look

try to get some sleep we'll talk
about it in the morning all right

maybe there's still a chance felicity isn't dead

i know it seems almost too much to hope for
but after all they haven't found their body yet

maybe she did manage to reach
the shore maybe she's still alive

i may as well be frank with you people
there's still one thing i don't understand

how mrs sampson fell overboard how does anyone
fall overboard she slipped she lost her balance

in that case she would have fallen into
the boat not out of maybe she fainted

that's a possibility i called the doctor
to check on it but he's out of town

was she subject to fainting spells
by the way not that i know of

another thing when we examine the deceased's body
we noticed a bruise on her forehead what are you

suggesting that she was struck before she fell
no not at all i just wondered where it came from

i can explain that sheriff the
city and i took a walk yesterday

there was a low branch and it it struck her
nothing serious but enough to raise the bruise

i see did any of you notice that bruise last
night i don't like the tone of that question

you're likely that we might have something to hide
not at all mr samson i'm just trying to put the

pieces together you can't play checkers without a
board i wasn't aware we were playing game sheriff

apparently you won't accept the fact that this
is a simple accident but the only thing left is

murder and since i was with felicity before she
died it seems i'm the obvious candidate please

mr sampson there's no reason to talk like that
i haven't accused anybody not directly not even

indirectly and i apologize for misunderstanding
your sheriff my wife had an accident and was

drowned but she won't take that at face value you
keep on asking questions what sort of accident

how did she fall why did she fall i think those
are reasonable questions under the circumstances

and as far as accusing you of anything the
thought never entered my head are you sure

of course i'm sure well think about it now sheriff
i could have killed her it is possible isn't it

well anything's possible this is more than
possible it's probable i was alone with her

no one else was out there i could have pushed
her over the side couldn't i goodnight sure

this is ridiculous paul didn't go in the era
why do you say that jack because i could see

them clearly from where i was standing they
were in my line of vision the whole time

and nothing happened nothing he didn't touch her
i wish you'd said something about this before i

didn't think it was important after all no one
had made any accusations until a minute ago

i haven't accused anybody even
though mr sampson seems to think so

i've got to be going the end quest will be
tomorrow morning 10 o'clock i'll see you out chad

we should be going today thanks dave for what
for telling that lie you couldn't see us at all

but he seemed to be looking for
some explanation for the accident

he was being a nuisance so i thought i'd hit him
off i appreciate it but you were taking a chance

not really i wasn't under oath
besides what difference does it make

you certainly didn't kill felicity did you no
so no harm done i don't see you at the inquest

she was quite excited the
day i bought those for her

she always used to look
forward to a lesson with you

so did i we had some good times
together i'm sure you didn't

look am i in the way yeah i mean do you want to
work i don't find it exactly easy to work right

now well they say it's good therapy keeps the mind
occupied is that what you'd like me to do design a

new office building it's just a suggestion
what are you so anxious for me to forget

i beg your pardon let's stop pretending i know
what are you talking about about you and felicity

what about us you knew she
was leaving me didn't you

now paul you've gone through a terrible experience
she was going away with you now wait a minute

that's ridiculous where did you get such an
idea no it's not ridiculous she told myself

i admired your wife i liked her very much
as a friend but that's as far as it ever

went oh i'm sure it was easy enough for
you it's always easy for the other man

he can present himself in the best possible
light make promises he never intends to keep

you have no responsibilities no roots i suppose
she'd like that too cheap bromance paul did

felicity say she was leaving you for me i know she
never mentioned your name of course she wanted to

keep you out of this but who else could it
have been you were in love with her weren't

you you were waiting for the chance to take
her away from me weren't you only it didn't

work and now felicity's dead but she didn't say
i was the man did she you just guessed i was i

knew you were the only thing i have to figure out
now is the best way to kill you oh wait paul i'll

take your word that she was going to leave you it
seems incredible but it must be the truth and uh

i can see why in a way you thought i was the one
but uh you're wrong paul you're really wrong am i

i've never wanted to take her from you even
if i had one or two i'd know i never could

besides i it happens i'm engaged to be married

you lie now it's the truth girl
in boston i met her last year

she's from back bay her parents don't exactly
approve of her marrying a golf pro as it is but

i wouldn't risk having an affair
with your wife you're crazy

how do i know you're telling the truth
you can call i i'll give you her number

friend i'm sorry

it's all right i should have known it wasn't
you i just couldn't think of anyone else

are you sure it is true you've had a terrible
time i'm not imagining it if that's what you mean

i uh i suppose you'd want to talk about
it i'd like to talk about it to you

as a matter of fact it'd be a relief in a
way you know felicity never really loved me

she as much as admitted it i think she just
wanted to be in love for once in her life

she felt she was missing something

that's the good i can't explain it
either you understand or you don't

i do i do all the same i think i better pack
up and leave it'll be easier all around trent

you won't mention this to anyone would you

by publicity leaving i mean of course
not it's none of my business thanks

where's an odyssey performed chef yes sir
and the result is that samson met death by

drowning following a fall from the cabin
cruiser yes sir it appears so appears sure

i just don't understand how she fell that's all
you've given us the impression that she lost

her balance yes i think so i just don't know how
sheriff i'm not quite sure what you're implying

are you suggesting that there was something
irregular in mrs sampson's death honor i'd

like to dismiss shark jordan for the moment and uh
call a new witness very well you might step down

would you state your name and occupation please
felix writer md dr ryder bailer tells me that you

have some pertinent information concerning this
inquest yeah how did you come by this information

professionally i was felicity samson's physician
why didn't you contact us earlier i couldn't i was

away on a fishing trip just got back this morning
would you tell us the nature of your information

be glad phil when i came home today my wife said
that felicity mrs sampson had had an accident said

a lot of people all over town were buzzing
about it seems that sheriff jordan couldn't

figure out how she fell off the boat well i knew
i could clear that up so i came right down here

mrs sampson came to me about two weeks ago for a
checkup she complained of pains in the chest so

i gave her a complete examination ran a series of
tests what did you discover she was suffering from

a serious type of progressive microsis is that a
dangerous kind of disease doctor in this case yes

i didn't have her entire history but from what
i could gather she had a primary infection of

the child this type of disease has a way
of recurring would it be fatal in time yes

she had possibly two or three years in
view of the fact that she fell overboard

would you say that dizziness might be one of
the symptoms of the disease yes arising from the

respiratory difficulties of course i'll be glad
to let the court see my records thank you doctor

now did you tell mrs samson about your
findings yes i did she asked me not to

mention it to her husband or family i've
held that confidence until now your reason

for breaking it well just what i said before
to clear up any rumors about her accident

mrs sampson probably had a dizzy spell lost
her balance and fell over the side thank you

doctor been extremely helpful i have nothing
more well in that case i think we can adjourn

that clear no question of the
verdict now accidental death

this concludes the first half
of the alfred hitchcock hour

now for our main attraction the following montage
of images and cacophony of sounds is called a

station break and i'm sure you will find it
an exciting and colorful experience observe

welcome back before we continue with the alfred
hitchcock hour the beloved sponsors minute

don't forget paul if there's
anything we can do just call us

why don't you take a trip somewhere the change
might do you good yes we'll give it some thought

i don't suppose you'll feel much like eating
tonight let me know if you want anything special

i made you a double

it would be nice having someone
to look after for a change

what do you think of harold's suggestion

a suggestion taking a trip you can close the house
and go to europe the far east or south america

do you good i can make all the arrangements try
to remember didn't felicity say anything at all

about what dr ryder told her didn't she give you
some small hint you've asked me that three times

already poor she didn't say anything at all
no hints nothing you must believe me but why

dr ryder he could have been the man do you think
he was lying trying to cover up paul please

she said there was another man she wanted
a divorce so there must have been another

man why couldn't it have been dr ryder
paul he gave the coroner his records

my dear you can't go on mourning
for the rest of your life

try not to think about it so much believe
me you'll get over it eventually one day you

you'll be happy again carolyn is no use course
it is i know don't you understand i killed her

don't say things like that it's
natural you should feel guilty

you feel you should have stayed with her on
the boat but paul there's no way you could have

known she was ill didn't you hear what i said
i murdered felicity i pushed her over the side

that's not true it can't be it is true

it wasn't planned i didn't mean to do it i
don't think i even wanted to but i did carolyn

it was sudden like slashing the head of a flower

a second later you wonder why on earth you
ever did such a thing has all been too much

for you paul i told you that before you've been
under such a strain i'm tired of being paid

everybody's pitying me the grieving husband
i can't take it anymore you are breathing you

don't believe me do you think it's all in my mind
i didn't say that but you're taking it well what

do you expect you're my brother i know you better
than i know myself you're not a murderer you know

why you don't believe me because you don't want
to because it might interfere with your plans

i haven't any plans oh yes you have the plans
you've been making ever since felicity died

coming here to live taking care of me you've
got a happy picture of us growing old together

i'm sorry

i'm sorry but it's the truth
can't we talk about this tomorrow

tomorrow will make any difference this isn't
going to go away it's something i've got to face

promise me you won't mention what you told
me to anyone else i can't make any promises

at least for now all right

good morning i understand i'm being
put under the microscope hi paul

let's stop the pretense carolyn told you didn't
she well yes she did mention something about your

problem problem is that what she called it
i should think you'd have more imagination

carolyn or is murder just a household crisis
these days like the maid or the silverware oh

please dear yes stop it paul this is serious
oh i'm sorry i didn't realize that i'm sure you

know alice what do you think i think you should
have kept this whole thing to yourself what why

tell anybody what good does it do even if you're
telling the truth well maybe he is how do we know

i just don't know what he expects us to do about
it i don't expect you to do anything about it you

go around talking this way who are you going to
tell next i better tell somebody who believed me

yes by all means go around telling everyone the
postman the gardener what should i do forget

about it yes for our sake your sake whatever
you've done you've no right to drag us into it

don't you realize that we have a reputation in
this community what about my children and harold's

business alice i'm sorry i don't want to involve
any of you but you would there would be a scandal

what would it accomplish i murdered felicity
i took a life and none of you believed me

none of you wants to believe me of course
we believe you if you say you did it that's

good enough for us stop trying to humor me i'm
perfectly sane then think of the consequences

we don't want a scandal it's funny if felicity
were here she'd find all of this highly amusing

each of you have your own reason for keeping
me quiet so i'm afraid i'll have to forget

about you and do what i think is best what
does that mean i don't know yet where are

you going paul i'm gonna get dressed and go to
town any objections i'll give you a lift harold

the watchdog oh no i'm going that way all right i
guess i might as well get used to wearing a leash

say paul uh why don't we stop by dr riders

what for well with everything that's happened
i imagine you could do with a checkup

there's a little mental physical of course

i feel fine

say uh harold i eat some cigarettes i wonder
if you could stop at that drugstore please

so

oh hello mr samson chef excuse my sunday suit
i'm giving my safety lecture to the school kids

and i'm uh i'm supposed to be there in about 10
minutes but this won't take long well have a seat

now what's on your mind i uh i came by to
tell you that you were right oh about what

about my wife's death it
wasn't an accident i killed her

would you repeat that i murdered my wife

you said something about my being right well

well suspicious of me weren't you it's
fairly obvious suspicious of you know

thought never entered my head there's no reason
to be polite i'm not being polite i'm just telling

you a fact i didn't at any time connect you with
your wife's death and i don't now sure when you

listen to me i pushed my wife over the side i
lost my head she was leaving me for another man

oh well i i don't know i see no no you
don't see at all what's wrong with you

a few days ago you thought there was
something suspicious about it yes i did

frankly i thought you'd all been drinking
and nobody knew what had happened that or

a possible suicide doctor rider proved me wrong
i'm sorry your wife's dead you have my sympathy

but if you think i'm going to make an official
report of this conversation you're mistaken

are you afraid of sheriff my family's influence

that's got nothing to do with it maybe there's
another reason you look like a fool if i confess

people might think you didn't conduct a thorough
investigation mr sampson i resent that i think

you'd better go home your family's probably
worried about you you don't believe a word i've

said no i don't and even if i did it wouldn't make
any difference the law cannot punish a man for a

crime unless there is proof that he committed it
and a man cannot convict himself unless there is

reasonable proof but i've admitted it it doesn't
make any difference you don't have any proof

you said your wife was leaving you for another man
but you can't produce him you said you pushed her

over the side but judge wilcox says that you
didn't go nearer he was lying to protect me

come on mr sampson you keep talking like that
they can lock you up in another kind of way

ask them yourself look this is a waste of
time and i'm supposed to be giving a lecture

sheriff would you sooner i
went to the district attorney

let's go by the judge's house

hello paul sheriff judge do you
mind if we come in for a minute

not at all if you promise to overlook
the dust my housekeeper is on vacation

oh you're wearing your official look
sheriff force of habit i'm afraid

judge do you mind if i ask you a question
certainly dave i want you to try please

i'll handle this judge when i was investigating
mrs sampson's death you volunteered a statement

you said that all the time mr samson was out
of the cabin you could see him that's right

well i'd like to know if that statement is
true tell him dave of course it was true no

no tell him the truth mr sampson please i asked
you to stay out of this if that's anything but

the truth judge you can do your friend a great
deal of harm dave don't try to protect me i'm not

trying to protect you i happen to be watching
you and felicity and you didn't go near her

well that's good enough for me you
mean you're gonna forget all about

this yes sir and i would suggest that you
do the same thank you for your time judge

mr sampson i have to be going
can i drop you sometimes

no

here you look like you could use this

carolyn called you didn't she
yeah how much did you tell you

just about everything paul did you kill felicity

yes why she was leaving me for another man

i know how's the man what
that surprises you doesn't it

i don't believe it my sister puts you
up to this is some kind of a trick

no paul but you hardly knew each other we
met in town by accident a few months ago

i had to go to lunch and then to dinner
when you were away on a business trip

got to be a habit you i still don't believe
it could you think i'd be too old for her

but the city didn't think so at first she wasn't
going to ask you for a divorce and after she been

to see dr ryder she decided that we were entitled
to the time that was left which is what she wanted

with any consolation to you i loved her very much
you think i care about that oh you never care

about anything except yourself how do you think
i felt the nicer for the city was drowned i loved

her but i couldn't show my feelings i was supposed
to have lost only a friend or the wife of a friend

i wanted to jump in that lake after her but
i didn't i stayed in the launch and operated

that light she was down there somewhere under
the water the person i loved most in the world

there's one thing you haven't taken into account i
love felicity too i loved her for years and i was

losing her so you destroyed what you couldn't
have after the accident i feel sorry for you

i feel sorry for both of us and
caroline told me what you were saying

i knew it was the truth why didn't you tell
the sheriff well that would have been too easy

you want to be caught it's the only way you can
relieve your guilt but no one believes you except

me you're not on the bench now you've got my
right to pass judgment you destroyed for the city

i'm going to see to it that you destroy yourself
too but you'll do a far better job than anyone

else could you've got the rest of your life
with a memory of what you did there's nothing

you can do about it nothing if you say you
kill felicity people will think you're insane

they'll never believe you never
somebody will i'll find somebody go home

paul would you come here a minute dear

we'd like to talk to you

what is it we've heard from the sheriff and
judge wilcox you've heard from a fool and a

liar paul dear we just can't have you
walking around spreading these stories

you need rest help mr samson this is dr campbell
he's a psychiatrist at the fairfield institute

get him out of here paul dr campbell
would like you to go with him

the institute is only 100 miles away you can stay
there until you feel better i'm not going anywhere

apparently i don't need a psychiatrist do you
want to stay now get out of here all of you

mr sensen i'm afraid you have no
choice i don't we'll see about that

your sister and i have signed the committal
papers don't worry dear it's just a formality

and if you cooperate with us mr
sampson things will be so much easier

going to be all right paul you'll see
and we'll visit you we'll all visit you

i have a joyous footnote to the grim scene which
you have just observed eventually our story had a

happy ending judge wilcox later admitted he had
been fibbing and the world knew that paul had

been guilty of murder so he was finally granted
his wish to his great relief he was taken out

of fairfield and suitably disposed of i have the
feeling that i've done quite enough for one day

however i commend you to the following
commercial and the sampling of next week's play

uh
