All language subtitles for The Outer Limits s04e18 Balance Of Nature

Her limb system is riddled.

Her whole body is under attack.

You're not thinking of intervening?
She's my wife. She deserves whatever

I can give her.

That clearly was a fourth time.

You know, if only the regressor were
further along, Meredith might have been

first to benefit from it.

Of course, we both know the price to pay
for stepping outside the rags.

Noah, Davenport would have your head on
a platter.

If you wouldn't mind, I'd like to be
alone with my wife.

I'd be lost without you, kid.

I got no choice.

You had to do this.

When I'm right, this machine's going to
save your life.

Initialize cellular analysis.

And initializing.

Yeah, well, I'll take those odds.

Please.

I can't.

Cellular regression successful.

Listen, cage regression sequence.

Hey,

how you feeling?

Hi.

I'm so groggy.

Did I oversleep?

It's amazing.

Look at you.

It's the prototype of the regressor I
brought it home.

Regressor?

I haven't told you how much I love you.

Warning. Warning.

Object destabilizing.

What's going on? Oh, damn it. It's
reversing. We're getting cellular

God, let it be transient.

No way. You're scaring me.

Stop it.

Initialize regression sequence.

Hang on there. It's going to be all
right. I know. It's a life of every

question. Oh, Pete.

Mary?

There is nothing wrong with your
television.

Do not attempt to adjust the picture. We
are now controlling the transmission.

We control the horizontal and the
vertical. We can deluge you with a

channels or expand one single image to
crystal clarity and beyond.

We can shape your vision to anything our
imagination can conceive.

For the next hour, we will control all
that you see and hear.

You are about to experience the awe and
mystery which reaches from the

deepest inner mind to the outer limits.

It is perhaps the central paradox of our
existence.

To be alive is to be aware of our
mortality.

Life is, by definition, a terminal
disease.

You never thought to hire professional
movers?

Why should I when I have friends like
you?

You know, not that I haven't thought
about getting out of the city

myself, but...

That means you have to come this far?

Take a look around.

Clean air, zero crime.

What is it exactly you think I'm going
to be missing?

Well, poker games won't be the same
without you.

Who else folds aces up?

Well, it's not exactly like I had a
choice.

Hospital.

Cut off all funding to my research.

The review board is still threatening to
pull my license. Hell, if the DA hadn't

backed off on those manslaughter
charges, I might have been whiling away

in prison. Look, you did what any of us
would have done under the circumstances.

Yeah.

Noah.

Meredith was dying long before your
experiments ever began.

It was the cancer that killed her, not
you, not the regressor.

Thanks for the absolution.

You know, you missed your calling,
buddy. I met a great priest.

Look, all I'm saying is that just
because the regressor's been mothballed

doesn't mean that you can't apply that
knowledge to other research.

And the truth is, I'm worried about you.
I'd hate to see you sink any deeper

into that hole that you were in.

It's been almost a year.

You can't go on torturing yourself.

It's time to move on.

I have moved on. I'm here, aren't I?

To do what?

I'm sure they could use a good GP.

Maybe I could make house calls. You're
50 miles outside the city, not 50 years

back in time.

And speaking of time, look, I gotta be
getting back.

Listen, you need anything, you give me a
shout.

Hey, just look for the smoke signals.

This is for you, Meredith.

This is for you.

Hello back.

Noah Phillips.

Welcome to the neighborhood.

I'm Barbara Matheson. It's great to be
here.

Rumor is you're a doctor.

Guilty as charged. Oh, I wish I had a
little warning you were coming.

We would have called out the welcome
wagon.

You know, the nearest thing we have to
that in the city is your car doesn't get

broken into in the first month.

Hardcore urbanite, huh?

Not anymore.

Made the big leap to the country.

We need some peace and quiet.

You won't get much of that around here,
not with all the alien abduction.

Oh.

Oh, that's very good.

I haven't had a decent abduction in a
long time.

Is it just you, or do you have a family?

No, no, it's just me.

Oh, well, we'll have to give you a
little party so you can meet some of the

neighbors. You know, I'm not really the
party type.

That's all right.

I'm not much good at giving them.

I like your sales pitch.

Well, you don't want to party.

How about I surprise you?

With what?

Well, if I told you, it wouldn't be much
of a surprise.

Hey, Barb, what are you up to?

Oh, we're coming out here to meet our
new neighbor.

Dr. Phillips, this is my husband, Greg.

I don't believe anything she tells you.
They don't roll off the sidewalks around

here until at least 9 o 'clock.

Good to know. Yeah, I thought you were
going to...

Help me pack, huh? Oh, of course. I'll
get some things together. Excuse me,

doctor. Yes, sure thing.

Life of a traveling salesman. I'll
sooner lay your butt in the sack than

somebody starts blowing revelry.

Guess that's the price you pay for being
numero uno, eh?

I can imagine.

See ya.

And the new neighbor.

Seems like such a nice young man.

Tell you what, old Hanley, the load of
this consolidation strategy I put

together is going to change you soon,
big time.

I certainly hope so.

Thanks for the vote of confidence.

Well, I just know how anxious you've
been about the new man they brought in.

Man, he's a snot -nosed kid.

Yeah, I don't know what I'm worried
about.

You don't build a company as big as
Hanley's without having great respect

experience.

No pimpled face of jerks can do me out
of my promotion.

I sing it on a higher key when I get
through with them.

The coffee's cold. Oh, here, let me get
you a cup.

Sorry, I'm not going to tell you that's
good. I don't care what anybody says.

Documenting these experiments with the
modified regressor, I hope to prove to

the world that its dream of discovering
a fountain of youth can transcend myth

and become reality.

Of course, I may also be providing the
authorities with all the evidence they

need to prosecute me for walking away
with hundreds of thousands of dollars

worth of hospital equipment. What the
hell?

Okay, guys.

Let's make history.

Run self -diagnostic.

System calibrating.

Initialize regression sequence.

Initializing.

Regression sequence commencing.

Welcome to the neighborhood. Hope you
like homemade pie.

That's doing it right.

You call this shirt iron? Look at that.
Look at that.

I must fight for 50 hours to wait for
you.

Least you can do is fix me a decent
shirt.

Barbara, are you all right?

I'm fine.

Are you sure everything is okay?

Of course.

Why wouldn't it be?

Well, it's just... Just, um... I

just came over to thank you for the pie.

Did you get a chance to try a piece?

No, I'll try some when I get back.

My pleasure.

Who are you talking to?

That new neighbor.

Catch you whining to him, there's going
to be hell to pay. You understand me?

I didn't say anything.

I don't believe you.

Stop this, please.

I'll give you something to whine about,
you know.

Now, now, you see what she's going to
do?

Testimons regressed cells have entirely
reversed.

Results... devastatingly lethal.

Morning.

Morning. How was your first night in the
new house?

Must be the country air.

Slept like a baby.

How about you? Everything all right?

Fine.

Just fighting the never -ending battle
of the weed.

Are you sure you don't need some help?

Thanks.

I'm done gardening for today.

No, wait, wait, Barbara, wait.

Listen, I haven't had a chance to buy
any food since I moved in. I was going

go into town today. You wouldn't want to
come with me, would you?

Oh, actually...

I've let quite a few tours build up.
It'd be awfully nice to have someone

me around.

Sure you wouldn't want to get away from
here for a couple of hours?

Come on, what do you say?

What does a girl from rural Florida end
up doing in New York?

Singing jazz and cabarets.

Get out of town.

That's exactly what I did.

My popular man.

Jazz singer in New York.

That is very cool.

Well, if you can fake it there, you can
fake it anywhere. Oh, I bet you were the

real thing.

Yeah.

My stage name was Barbara Dumont.

I keep that picture to remind myself of
the power of self -deception.

Wow.

So what happened? Well, my career wasn't
exactly lighting up the great white

way.

Then I met Greg.

He sent flowers to my dressing room five
nights in a row before he introduced

himself.

He was charming.

And I was eager to start a family.

So did you start a family?

No. Unfortunately, Greg wasn't able to
have children.

Then his job took him out with, so I
gave up the music to be with him.

You miss it?

Well, I try not to wallow in self -pity,
tempting as that might be.

Oh, don't get me wrong. When it comes to
making the most of all I have left, I

say, damn the torpedoes.

You want to talk about it?

Bruise on your face?

Oh, I just happen to be the world's
clumsiest person.

Clumsiest liar, maybe.

Things have been very frustrating for my
husband lately.

He's afraid of losing a promotion to a
much younger man.

Barbara, you can't make excuses for him.
I've seen how these patterns can

escalate. Greg is all I have in this
world. Most of the time, he still cares

very much.

I just want to be honest with you. If
this happens again, I'm not going to sit

on my hands.

How would you do?

I don't know. I'd talk to him and report
him. I don't know.

I'm sorry. I don't mean to be
presumptuous. It's okay.

It's okay.

Can I ask you something?

Sure.

Why are you so unhappy?

Why do I look that unhappy to you?

When you get to be my age, you can look
into a person's eyes and

see right through to their soul.

Less than a year ago, I lost someone
that I love very much.

Your wife?

Yeah.

Meredith contracted skin cancer.

It all happened so fast.

I was doing some research at the time. I
was convinced it would help her.

So I tried an experimental treatment.

Unfortunately, it didn't work.

In fact,

I killed her. Oh, no.

Oh, that must have been terrible.

If I hadn't been so wrapped up in my own
work, I would have noticed the illness

sooner. I could have made all the
difference. You can't blame yourself.

doctor doesn't make you all powerful.

Are you still doing cancer research?

No, it's not cancer per se.

At one point, I was sure that I was onto
the very mechanism which makes us age.

You put that in a bottle. I'll order
some of that myself.

Photograph, five bucks.

I don't see why.

Looks like you're in great health.
Photograph.

Very beautiful woman.

Oh, Dr.

Bell.

Noah.

Photograph, five bucks.

Hey, how about a photo? Oh, no, no, no.
No, thank you. Oh, come on. You and me

together. Damn. the torpedoes.

Okay. Okay.

Thanks.

Okay, right over here.

You had me worried.

Oh, we were just doing some shopping.

I'm sorry, Greg. It was my fault. I
asked Barbara to show me around the

Hungry? Yeah. Think you can put
something on the table? Of course.

Excuse me, doctor.

Maybe I could take the both of you out
to dinner, make up for my presumptuous

behavior.

No, no, no.

One thing you need to know about me and
Barb, though, we kind of like to keep to

ourselves, huh?

Barbara? What are you doing? The door
was open.

Is this the machine that makes people
young?

Oh, Barbara, that's very dangerous.

Please step away.

I've got nothing to lose, Noah.

Nothing at all.

Depression.

Disengage. Disengage.

Access denied.

Depression in progress.

Barbara. Did it work?

Yes.

My God.

Is that really me?

That's really you.

Noah.

My youth.

You've given it back to me.

I have no right.

You have every right.

Warning. Object destabilizing.

What is it? Noah, what's happening?

The cells are breaking down.

Barbara. No, don't look at me. Barbara,
it's all right.

cellular rejuvenation, I've decided to
increase exposure by running two

in tandem. I'm hoping that the stronger
dose will give the cells the stability

they need to remain young.

Run diagnostic for emitter A.

Now what?

Barbara, I didn't hear you come in.

Oh, I'm sorry, I'm interrupting your
work. No, no, no, no, come on down.

I brought you something.

Yeah, what's that?

It's my scrapbook from when I was
singing in cabarets. I thought you might

it. Oh, I love it.

That's a concert we did in college.

Oh, is this...

The research you were talking about?

Yeah, Phillips' folly.

Looking up the mad scientist almanac.

What does it do?

In theory, you could take a malignant
growth and take it back to the point

where it was benign or even non
-existent.

So you haven't given up on it?

I tried.

Something kept nagging at me.

I don't think I'm ever going to be able
to reconcile myself with what happened

to Meredith until I get this damn thing
to work.

Noah.

Maybe I shouldn't say this. I know it's
not my place.

But I think you have to face the truth
in your life much as I have had to in

mine. What you did for Meredith, you did
out of love.

You can't fault yourself for that.

Why not?

I had her life in my hands.

Only we've got to trade it places.

That's crazy.

Oh, think of the hope you could provide
other people. Oh, Noah, you have so much

to live for.

You're very sweet.

No, no, just no.

No.

Nora, wait.

I'm 30 years older than you, Nora.

More.

That makes no difference to me.

Even if I were married, it wouldn't be
right. I'm on the downward slope of my

life.

All that kiss did was remind me of all
that.

Listen, he doesn't deserve you.

I need you, Barbara, more than you know.

There are some things that just weren't
meant to be.

There's... There's a balance of nature,
Noah.

You can't turn back the clock just by
wishing for it.

What are you doing home?

What's the matter? Are you disappointed?

Well, of course not. I didn't expect to
see you until tonight.

Well, you better get used to it. I guess
you're going to be seeing a hell of a

lot more than me now.

Did something happen at work?

Damn right something happened.

You didn't get the promotion.

Promotion?

Bastard Hanley fired me.

Gee, all those years on the road, down
the train.

You know what he said to me?

Man your age ought to be playing golf.

Watching his grandkids grow up.

You don't have a clue.

God, what the hell am I going to do? Oh,
Greg, I am so sorry. God, give me that

crap. You'll find something else.

No one knows the buyers the way you do.
Don't patronize me.

You thought I was a loser right from the
beginning. I could see it in your face.

That's not true. What are you saying?
You think I can go out and get another

job?

I'm 66 years old and it's over on death.

Might as well throw dirt on me.

Now where the hell are you going?

I was just going to get you something to
eat.

Don't you ever turn your back on me.

Where the hell were you right now? Your
car was in the driveway.

I was just... Next door.

I was talking to Dr. Phillips.

I told you to stay away from me.

Did you hurt yourself?

We were talking. Greg, we were just
talking.

Don't you lie to me.

I told you to stay away from me.

I know what you're doing. You're trying
to charm a guy half your age. You think

I'm a joke? You're the freaking joke.

You don't understand.

Oh, you don't understand.

If I caught you, well, I caught you,
well.

The balance of nature.

I'm using oppositely charged beams from
the 20 meters to simultaneously

irradiate an adult frog and a tadpole.

I'm trying to create a living
equilibrium.

That balance of nature that Barbara was
talking about.

If my theory is right, the frog should
regret and the tadpole should age with

a crossover effect that should stabilize
the changes in both animals.

Here goes nothing.

Initialize transference sequence.

Initializing.

And execute.

By full regression sequence commencing.

Disengage transference sequence.

One unexpected anomaly. The polarity of
the beams is apparently switched.

The donor station has turned into the
receiving station and vice versa. They

must go back and forth with every
transference.

But the most important thing is that
cellular regression

and progression seems to have worked.

Diagnostics indicate the most stable
readings to date.

I may actually have pulled this thing
off.

Barbara, it's me, Noah.

Let's go home.

Barbara, listen to me.

You've got to do this.

Your vital signs are right on the
threshold. You're bleeding internally.

I've got no time to get you to a
hospital. I've got to try to reverse the

hemorrhaging. Hey, Barbara.

Yeah?

Barbara?

Barbara?

Slide transferring sequence.

Initializing.

Execute.

Cellular regression successful.

Parameter stable.

Recalibrating for clarity reversal.

Who are you?

My name is Dr. Noah Phillips.

Now, you've just survived a very
traumatic event. If I'm going to help

going to have to ask you a few
questions.

First, tell me your name, your first and
your last name.

Barbara Spencer.

What year is it?

It's 1957.

Do I have amnesia?

What happened to me?

Tell me.

It'd be easier just to show you. Come
here.

Some

kind

of trick.

It has to be. No, Barbara, it's not.

It's not 1957 anymore. It's 1998.

You're 65 years old and you've been
married to Greg for almost 40 years.

I know.

This is crazy.

Look, I don't know where I am or who you
are, but I want you to stay away from

me. Do you hear me? Wait, wait, Barbara.
Wait, wait.

You must know that Greg has a temper.

When I found you, he'd beaten you so bad
you were almost dead.

He would never hurt me.

I know him. Look.

This is a picture of you and I. It was
taken a couple of days ago.

That's me? Yes.

Is that what you say?

Yes.

Yes, it's your scrapbook.

You think that you and Greg are married
yet?

How do you explain this?

Even if I believed it, how could this be
you?

You said this machine was supposed to
make you younger.

You see, I first used this machine
almost a year ago on my

wife. She was dying of cancer.

The first version didn't work, and she
died almost instantly.

Is that what's going to happen to me?
Oh, no.

No, I realized by striking a balance, I
could keep the cells young.

You gave up your youth to give me back
mine.

It seemed only right after all you were
the inspiration that led me to the

answer.

How do I know this isn't some kind of
horrible brainwashing?

Like Korea.

Oh, I wouldn't do that to you, Barbara.

You mean too much to me. Now, you have
to believe that.

What you're saying is true, then I've
robbed you of half your life.

It's not right.

Please, put me back the way I was.

Why?

So you can go back to being a battered
one?

I'm giving you a second chance here. A
chance to live your life again the right

way this time. What you're telling me is
that I have lived my life. I can't take

that away from someone else.

Please, put me back the way I was.

Put yourself back the way you were.

It's my decision to make. It's not
yours.

Initiate transference sequence.

Are you sure you want to go through with
this? For God's sake, just hurry up

before I change my mind.

Ah! On it!

Greg!

Greg, my God, is that you?

Yeah.

Ah, you didn't look so good when you
were my age either, you know. Greg, put

away the gun.

What are you going to do?

Ah, he was dumb enough to give you 40
years of his life. I'm just going to

what's left. No!

That could kill him!

Use me instead.

You're still my wife. That is a change.

But he said you nearly killed me.

If I ever hurt you, I only did it
because I was afraid of losing you,

all. All right, get out of the machine.

Take your chances, or I end it right
here, right now.

Greg, please, just leave him alone.

Get out of the way.

It's all right, it's all right.

I'll be all right, I promise.

All right, Greg.

Sit in that chair.

All right.

All right.

Wait a minute. You're a sick, common
idiot.

What are you trying to do, kill me? She
was sitting in that chair when she got

young. The polarity of the beam switches
with every transfer. Shut up!

Sit down! Get that thing started.

You don't want to do this. Start the
machine!

Stop! Now!

Great transference sequence.

It doesn't recognize my voice.

You better find another way, Doc.

Do it right now, Doc!

Right. Barbara, hit the green button,
the one that's next to the function

Initializing.

I can feel it.

Something's happening.

I can feel it. Regression sequence
commencing.

Do you recognize me?

No. My name is Barbara.

I feel so strange.

You don't remember anything?

I don't remember what the regressor is.

I just killed Meredith.

I spoke.

No, you survived a terrible experience.

What I'm about to tell you is going to
sound unbelievable, but you're going to

have to trust me.

Meredith died almost a year ago.

Philosophers and poets concur on one
fundamental truth.

Love will find a way.

It's just a matter.
