-It wasn't our fault, sir.

No. I'm leaving this morning.

-There's nothing I can do here.
-That's right.

Well, Mary, you'll make
a fine organist for that church.

Be very satisfying to you, I think.

It's just a job to me.

Well, that's not quite the attitude
for going into church work.

I am not taking the vows.
I am only going to play the organ.

Oh, you want more than that.

Of course it doesn't pay much,
but, well, at least it's a start.

Are you driving by Benton
to see your folks?

No, I can't. I — I must hurry.

I — I've got to leave.
I am going to drive straight through.

Mary, it takes more than intellect
to be a musician.

Put your soul into it a little, okay?

Good luck, Mary.

Stop by and see us

Thank you, but I'm never coming back.

Be anything else, lady?

Could you tell me what that big structure
is back a few miles by the lake?

Oh, you mean the old bathhouse.

(chuckles) Yeah, that used to be
a pretty ritzy place in the old days.

Then the lake went down
and they made a dance hall out of it.

Then they put those buildings up out there

and made some sort of
a carnival there for a while.

Ah, that's years ago though.
Just stands out there now.

I see.

Uh, I have an address here of
a rooming house. Could you direct me?

Oh, sure. Why, that's just
right over here a little way.

Been saving' it for you
since I got your letter.

Could've rented it yesterday
if I'd wanted.

Oh, it - it's fine.
I-It's just about what I expected.

I knew you'd like it.

This ain't no regular
rooming' house, you know.

I only got you
and Mr. Linden across the hall.

Each room's got its own
private bathroom too.

You can take all the baths you want.

I'm not one to fuss
about things like that.

Thank you.
I think I'll be quite comfortable.

Well, hope you'll stay a while.

I'm downstairs
in the back part of the house,

so if there's anything else you need,
guess it'll have to wait till morning.

Night.

Good night, Mrs. Thomas.

Of course.
That's where we heard about you.

You have found a place to stay?

-Yes, I have a room.
-Good.

Well, we hope
you're going to like it here.

We're not the largest church
in this area, of course,

but we have a nice congregation.

We'll have to have some sort of reception.
They'll want to meet you.

-Couldn't we just skip that?
-Skip that?

I don't suppose
it's an absolute necessity.

I don't know what
some of the ladies will say.

If they say I'm a fine organist,
that should be enough, shouldn't it?

Well, yes, of course.

We'll let it go at that

Be very easy to step around it.

What attraction could
there be for you out there?

I am not sure.

I'm a reasonable person. I don't know.

Maybe I want to satisfy myself

that the place is nothing more

-Would you take me out there?
-No.

The law has placed it off-limits.

Wouldn't be very seemly for
a minister to break the law, would it?

No. Maybe I can come back
some other time.

Ah, I thought that'd be you.

Good evening.

That organ playing' must take a long time.
You've been gone most the whole day.

I went for a long drive in the country
with my new boss, an elderly minister.

Oh, ho.

That must have been a kick in the head.

I learned that
from my other boarder, Mr. Linden.

Did you get your supper?

Oh, I forgot.

Well, this ain't no boardinghouse,

but I got some coffee
and sandwich makings left.

I could bring you some up after a while.

Good. I'll be taking one of those baths

I'm John Linden.
I"m your neighbor across the hall.

-Nice to meet you. Would you excuse —
-Hey, I, uh -

-Just stand right there.

I forgot to introduce myself.
I'm Mary Henry.

Yeah, I know.

I, uh — I heard you tell Mrs. Thomas
you haven't ate anything yet, huh?

I just thought, being' neighborly and all —
I haven't eaten anything either.

I just thought I'd ask you out to dinner.

That's very thoughtful,
but I can't accept.

I know we haven't met or anything yet,
but I just thought —

I'm sorry. You'll have to excuse me.

Look, there's a real nice restaurant
right down the street, and I thought —

I'm the kind of guy
who doesn't like to eat by himself.

I've made arrangements

Oh! It looks just like what I need.

Well, then two cups of coffee coming' up.

I guess you took it wrong last night
about me coming' to your door and all.

I'm not a very sociable person ordinarily.

How can I resist an inducement like this?

I got a couple of shots left over from
last night. Want a little bit in yours?

No, thanks. It's not the recommended
breakfast for a church organist.

Oh, is that what you do?

You mean they pay somebody
to play the organ in church?

Some churches do.

Hey, I hope you don't mind about this.

I just didn't know
you were a church woman.

To me a church is just
a place of business.

-Well, that's a funny way to look at it.
-Why?

People seem shocked because
I took a job in a church,

and I regard it simply as a job.

I am a professional organist
and I play for pay, that's all.

(scoffs) Thinking' like that,
don't that give you nightmares?

Strange you should say that.

As a matter of fact —
not for that reason, mind you —

but I had
the strangest feeling last night.

Yeah, I had kind of a lost night myself.

That's funny.

The world is so different in the daylight.

But in the dark,
your fantasies get so out of hand.

But in the daylight,
everything falls back into place again.

Let's have no more nights.

Or let's make them more interesting, huh?

Say, how'd you get to be
a church organist?

I studied it in college.

I could've gone to college.

I used to play pretty good football,

but they wanted me
to take a lot of classes and things.

-They're that way.
-I'm just as smart as the next guy.

But I just didn't dig
what they were teaching' in school.

And the thing I hated most
was “principal products.”

Principal products?

You know, like, uh,
“The principal products of Brazil are --

Oh, geez.

Coffee beans, snake oil.
You know, like that.

(scoffs) When I was in school,
I couldn't care less.

The only thing I cared about was girls.

Didn't they offer a course in that?

(chuckles) If they would've done that,
I would've graduated.

(liquid pouring)

What's the matter?
Can you still taste the coffee?

(chuckles) Come on.
What do you think, I'm an alcoholic?

I just like to start the day off
in a good mood, that's all.

You must be hilarious by noon.

I'm just the kind of a guy employers want.
You know, the happy worker.

Come on.
Didn't I make your morning happier?

This morning you're exactly what I needed.

You're gonna need me in the evening' too.
You just don't know it yet.

I'll rinse off these cups.

Ah, no, no.
Just spoils the flavor for tomorrow.

Well, thank you for the coffee.

It was unsanitary, but delicious.

Well, uh, should've put some of
the germ killer inside.

Well, I hate to leave so early.

Think you can get through the door?

You got the wrong impression of me.

Well, I meant because
you have so many things to carry.

Oh. Like I said, I hate to leave.

It's been a pleasure, Mr. Linden,
but I'm sure you have to get to work.

-Don't you?
-Nope.

-I have the whole day free for shopping.

-Does the hem hang right in back?

We might change the hemline a little.

The drape is just fine.

Otherwise it looks very nice.

No. No.

It was that man.

That man!

There was someone else there!

That strange man was there!

Now, look. You've had a fright.

Hysteria won't solve anything.
Now control yourself.

Look, I'm Dr. Samuels.

My office is right across
the street there.

You've had a shock.

If you would like my assistance,
I'll be glad to offer it.

Thank you.

-Could I come with you now?
-Certainly.

I'll take her over to my office.
We'll see that she's all right.

My purse.

It was more than just
not being able to hear anything,

or make contact with anyone.

It was as though —

as though for a time I didn't exist.

As though I had no place in the world,

no part of the life around me.

DR. SAMUELS:
And then you saw this — this man?

MARY: Yes.

You'll excuse my back, but I wanted
to get some of that written down.

I must have been talking for an hour.

Anything else?
Anything you haven't told me?

That's all there is.
That's the whole story.

He's been following me.
That's all there is to it.

It isn't that simple though, is it?

What do you mean?

He couldn't have been
in the park this afternoon,

or one of us men would've seen him.

And that night in the hallway,

you said yourself the landlady came up
a minute later, and she didn't see him?

What are you driving at?

It's been less than a week since you
were in a car that crashed into the river.

How you got out of that
no one seems to know.

But that experience must have been
a serious emotional shock.

You think I imagined all of it, don't you?
You think I'm insane?

I didn't say that. I don't mean that.

I'm a competent person.
If anything, I'm a realist.

I'm not given to imagining anything.

Hogwash.

All of us imagine things.

Have you ever heard two men
talking behind your back

and imagined they were talking about you?

Have you never imagined
you saw someone you knew,

and walked up to them and found
they were a perfect stranger?

-I don't see what this has to do with it.
-The point is this.

Our imaginations play tricks on us.

They often misinterpret
what we see and hear. Do you agree?

I suppose so.

If that can happen in ordinary times,
go a step further.

Look what can happen in a high fever,
or following a serious emotional shock.

It doesn't seem possible
that I could have imagined all of it.

Does this man, this figure,
resemble anyone you've ever known?

-An acquaintance, or your father?
-No.

-Have a boyfriend here or back home?
-No, no desire for one.

-Never?

I'm surprised to find myself
saying that, but it's true.

I have no desire for
the close company of other people.

Have you always felt this way?

I — I don't know.

Don't you want to join
in the things that other people do,

share the experiences of other people?

I don't seem capable
of being very close to people.

I do feel that perhaps I'm trying
to reach out for those other things.

Do you feel guilty wanting them?

I don't understand you.

I'm not a psychiatrist, and perhaps
I"m being clumsy at all this,

but I am suggesting that perhaps
this figure represents a guilt feeling.

Oh, that's ridiculous!

Maybe. Frankly, I don't know.

Well, I know one thing.

If my imagination is playing tricks on me,
I"m going to put a stop to it.

You're a very strong-willed person,
aren't you?

I survive, if that's what you mean.

That old pavilion out by the lake.

Somehow you associate it
with all this, don't you?

I could go out there.
I could put an end to that too.

- I could go out there —
-Now don't be hasty.

If it is all in my imagination,
I could put a stop to it.

Maybe. But at least someone
should be with you. I can't possibly —

As you say, Doctor,
I'm a person of strong will.

And the time to go out there is now.

And if I have to, I can go alone.
