Thank you.

Senators Baldwin, Hanover, Secretary
Wilberton, your plane is holding at

Concourse No.

12.

Senator Hanover invited me along.

Albert Hanover, Senate floor leader, a
tower of pragmatism for 40 years on the

Washington scene.

Besides the senator and me, there were
four others, all important people.

Secretary of Science Wilburton and his
wife.

and the Jonathan Janeways Publisher.

Ernest Sheed, the spiritualist, was very
impressive.

Please relax.

There are strangers here, and this will
be difficult.

I recognize one of us is burdened with
sorrow.

Senator, give me your hand.

I'm going to try to reach your wife.

Please relax.

It will help me.

Yes.

Albert Hanover seeks his wife, Margaret.

Margaret.

Margaret Hanover.

Albert is trying to reach you.

Margaret? Yes.

Albert?

Peggy. Don't be troubled, Albert.

I know you're concerned with your
responsibilities.

The voting coming up in the Senate.

But sometimes, Albert, things are
different than we thought.

What is it, Maggie?

What are you trying to say?

Here. We can see beyond the veil, into
the future.

The work you're engaged in will not be
successful.

No, Maggie.

It must be. I can see, Albert.

You cannot.

You are taking the wrong path.

Going in wrong direction.

I love you, Albert.

Maggie.

Maggie.

Bring her back.

You've got to bring her back.

Of course, Senator.

Another time.

What she referred to, what the
apparition of Margaret Hanover referred

the energy development bill coming up on
the Senate floor next week.

I thought there was a comfortable
majority in the Senate supporting it.

was.

But Albert Hanover's been leaning in a
different direction since that first

seance. You mean he's changing his mind
about the bill? I mean his wife. His

dead wife, through that fake
spiritualist, is changing his mind for

But why? Because there are people who
want the bill killed.

People who stand to lose billions of
dollars if new energy sources are

discovered.

We're not sure if it's an international
money group, the Arabian oil cartel, or

even our own national petroleum
interests.

These people aren't above using any
means to influence an Albert Hanover and

stopping passage of that bill.

And whichever way he goes, a lot of
Senate votes go along with him. I think

Gide, for all his impressiveness, his
unimpeachable background is a fake.

I think he's being paid a large sum of
money by some person or group to

brainwash our lawmakers.

I want proof.

I want you to find it. I want you to dig
it out any way you have to, but

discreetly.

What do you think?

No problem.

Here's a report on Jude by the Psychic
Research Bureau in London.

They investigated him with his complete
cooperation, although he shuns publicity

and the public.

They didn't find one hint of magic or
fakery.

Baldwin said he was impressive.

This was taken before her death.

Who's that?

Andrea Hanover, an only daughter.

Seems that she and the senator never did
see eye to eye.

She's been out of the country since that
picture.

Almost ten years.

Tragic.

Why tragic? She'd been found dead in the
Andes the day before yesterday.

An accident at Machu Picchu.

Now, wait a minute. Let me see that
again.

Why doesn't Kate pose as Andrea Hanover,
just back from Peru?

And if Gide materializes the senator's
wife and she accepts Kate as her

daughter, that's all the proof you'd
need to go to the senator and expose

for the phony that he is.

Not bad.

Thank you.

The photograph.

Haven't you forgotten something?

What? Your face.

Oh, you noticed.

Senator Baldwin and Walter are so
positive that she's a fake.

Are you?

People just automatically think fake.

You didn't answer my question.

Yes, I think he's a fake.

Hey.

Oh, you look ravishing, Andrea.

Miss Hanover to you.

Why are you going to wear your hat?

I don't know.

This? No.

Thumb pad.

He does pretty well for someone who
shuns publicity.

Thank you, dear Mr.

Gide. I'm so grateful.

With an open mind, all things are
possible, Mrs. Grant. Good day.

Good day.

Goodbye, ladies.

May we help you? This is Andrea Hanover,
Senator Albert Hanover's daughter.

My name is Daniel Weston. I'm a friend
of the family.

I know it's an imposition to call
without an appointment, but Miss Hanover

just returned from South America.

The senator never mentioned you, Miss
Hanover?

Well, I never got along with my father
very well, Mr. Jade.

That's why I've been out of the country
so much.

Is this a...

Professional call.

Oh, yes.

Yes, it is.

I came back to this country because I
heard that my father was in touch with

you, and through you, with my mother.

Come in, please.

I had three meetings with your father,
Miss Hannibal.

I'm more interested in my mother, Mr.
Cheed.

You were as close as my father and I
were apart.

Please sit down.

How may I help you?

Can you... Can you bring her back?

So I can see her, talk with her.

If it's inconvenient.

I can't promise success on such short
notice.

Oh, yes.

Yes, of course. We understand.

But I'll try.

Please relax.

It will help me.

Give me your hand.

Margaret Hanover.

Your daughter is trying to reach you.

Andrea?

Yes, Margaret.

It's Andrea.

She wants to talk to you. I don't
understand.

I don't understand.

What's the matter?

Wait.

Margaret?

Why are you upset?

This is Andrea.

Andrea.

I am Andrea Hanover.

There is an imposter here.

I died in Peru.

Who takes my name?

Who is the imposter?

Who are you?

We don't want impostors here.

Now, hey, hold on. Somebody tried to
assassinate Mr. Gide last week.

We're not taking any chances with the
stupid and the ignorant.

Hold on, Williams.

I asked you who you are.

Well, Mr.

and Mrs. Weston, we're covering an
assignment for the American Psychic

Institute.

What kind of an assignment?

You may be entitled to a $100 ,000
reward for proving there's a life after

death.

I didn't apply for any reward.

You don't have to apply.

I don't like meddling in my affairs.

I don't like publicity.

You don't act like psychic
investigators.

Well, how are we supposed to act?

Most of them are practitioners
themselves.

Ah.

Oh.

Well, it's not me.

As a matter of fact, it's my wife. She's
the magical one.

What? Oh, are you, Mrs. Weston?

Well, I... No, don't be modest, darling.

No, of course not.

Modesty is the sackcloth of small minds.
And what form of the occult is your

specialty, Mrs. Weston?

You know, darling, your experiments with
levitation.

Levitation? Oh, that.

Telekinesis. How interesting.

Put the gun away, Williams. These people
are not violent.

Prove it.

Prove it?

Here? Now?

Why not?

Well, I could try, Mr. Sheet.

But I really think I ought to be alone
in here. I wouldn't want anyone to think

I was being helped.

With an excellent view of the city from
the garden, Mr. Weston.

Just don't wander too far.

Remember, your wife's in here with us.

Will you be all right, darling, with the
door closed?

I'll be fine.

Mrs. Weston.

All right.

How shall we begin?

Very good, Mrs. Weston. Very good.

Will you please sit down, Mr. Sheed?

Yes, indeed.

What would it be, Mrs. Weston?

The door.

The door.

The door.

The door.

It's all clear.

All right, Mrs. Weston.

Open the door.

Without touching it, of course.

I'll try.

I'm trying to open the door.

The door, Mrs. Weston.

Mrs. West.

You must have left the door off the
latch.

A breeze along the hall must have come
along and opened it.

Breathe that don't turn doorknobs, Mr.
Jade.

Ah,

yes.

The Jade Elephant, Mrs. Weston.

Splendid.

Well, I think that... No, no, no, no.

One more, Mrs. Weston. One more thing.
One real test.

I mean, after all, the jade elephant
is... is rather light.

What about William?

William, sit down on that chair.

Yes!

Mrs. Weston.

Williams.

the chair.

That's more than a real test, Mr. Sheed.
I had trouble lifting the jade

elephant. Yes, well, it'll prove that
you're genuine.

And it'll convince me.

And I'll have no objections to your
attending the seance tomorrow for

Hanover.

Oh, I can't. I can't. It's too much.

All right, Mr. Sheed. I'll try.

Uh, Mr. Williams, will you put your
hands on the table, please?

I'm going to raise the chair you're
sitting in.

That was impressive, Mrs. Weston.

Thank you, Mr. Gilbert. I'm sure your
own accomplishments are much more

successful.

With a little practice, you'll be able
to increase your capabilities.

Very, very promising.

You're so kind.

Your husband is outside.

Why don't we join him?

I look forward to the seance tomorrow.

So do I. And your comments.

Hi.

You're right. That's a gorgeous view.

It's quite a hill.

How did it go?

It was a strain.

Until tomorrow.

Williams will show you out.

That was some show you put on.

You kind of hammed it up yourself.

Hammed it up? No, that was for real.

Do you think this 150 pounds is all
muscle?

Well, I tried to stop him. I mean, you
saw the worried look on my face. I saw

that gleam in your eye.

Dan. What?

How'd he do it?

How did he make Senator Hanover's wife
appear like that?

And then Andrea Hanover, how did he know
she was dead?

How did he know to make her say those
things to me?

I don't know.

Looks as if we're right back where we
started.

I'm just not as sure as all of you seem
to be that Ernest Jede is a fake. I

can't put down things I don't
understand, and I don't understand the

It's got to be a trick.

We have to find out how he does it,
that's all.

I know it's the right angle.

Let's put up the voltage a bit.

25 ,000?

Yeah, why not? On the nose, wide open.

I'd rather not.

Here goes nothing.

No good, Dan.

Base facts.

You can't bend coherent light.

Maybe he uses some kind of a gas or
vapor as a screen.

Dan, maybe it's not a hologram.

Well, it has to be some kind of
projection or... Or?

Or it's real.

Hello?

Walter, we're right in the middle.

We'll be right there.

Walter wants us to meet a Dr.

Theophilus from the Research Institute
at Duke.

At the university, we run across
anomalies all the time.

Things we just can't explain by any
rational concept.

Including Mr. Ernest Gede.

When you talk about him, you're talking
about the most perplexing enigma we've

ever known.

We've had teams of investigators
snooping around him. Yes, well, as far

concerned, he is simply a bit more
clever than the rest.

There are some things on this earth,
Walter, that have never been

explained by science.

Like precognition and déjà vu.

ESP and telepathy.

And our experiments at Duke.

And behind the Iron Curtain.

Yeah.

Experiments. Well, let's just keep our
feet on the ground and stick to the

assignment. Right?

Yeah, yeah.

Get the proof that Jeeves is phony.

Your research into the fields of optics
and light is in the right direction.

We've gotten nowhere so far.

If there is a key, you must connect it
up with something at the other end.

In Gide's home.

Yes, well, uh... Thank you, Doctor. Not
at all. Don't get up.

We should be most interested in your
findings.

Walter, the information I asked for?
It's in the works.

That's it. So our information is
correct.

They work for the Clay Corporation.

So?

I don't have to remind you of the
enormous accomplishments of the Clay

Yes.

But no buts.

That Dr.

Theophilus. Uh -huh. He must have run
across all the tricks in the trade.

Yeah, I would guess so.

Except Ernest P.

No, it had to be some form of hologram.

And the voices?

I don't know.

It's something we have to figure out.

Do you know anyone who drives an orange
pickup?

Maniac. He's not long for this world,
the way he drives.

Dad?

What is it?

I'm not sure. It happened all so fast.

But I could swear that was Williams.

Oh, let's go home, please.

I got back that they were gone.

I checked. He must have gotten away.

You were inefficient.

I could have sworn they were headed for
a crack -up.

But you have to have sensational
reflexes.

These people are dangerous.

Besides, we have a large fee at stake.

Not to mention our security.

I understand what you mean, sir.

we keep coming up empty with Mr. Jeeves.
That's his history.

And time's running out.

He just oozes with confidence, so calm,
self -assured.

Do you find him attractive?

Yeah.

Hello? I've got that information for
you.

Oh, great. Let's have it.

Jeed's Washington clientele and their
voting record.

Six congressmen altogether, three
senators, including Hanover, three

representatives, a three -star general,
and a captain member.

All regulars at his seances from time to
time.

And what about Jeed himself?

He should be a registered lobbyist from
the way he's been operating.

Every congressman on that list voted in
a block on certain bills.

Well, it's too coincidental, Dan.

And they're all leaning against the
energy...

Bill, all of them.

He must be getting a fortune from those
people again that Ben Baldwin mentioned.

What about William, Jeeves' assistant?

Ah, that could be a break.

He was in show business.

Show business?

Yeah, he was an impressionist, a mimic.
Did all kinds of voices, males, females,

movie stars.

He's an impressionist.

Are you going to that seance today?

Yes. Well, then, play it with care.

Right. I'll talk to you later.

Right.

Who's an impressionist?

William.

You know, those images have to be
projections, holograms.

Now, where were the lights in the chaos
room?

There weren't any, just the candlelight.
Well, there were wall lamps. And the

chandelier, but they were all turned off
when the candle was lit.

The chandelier. Oh, that chandelier.

Dunning, I was thinking of getting one
for our dining room. The way it sparkled

and... The chandelier. Of course, that's
how he does it, from above.

Project it down through the crystals of
the chandelier. And William's must be a

mimic and a ventriloquist as well as an
impressionist.

What is it?

Fear the devil.

It's William.

Now we'll be up to. I don't know, but
there's no harm in finding out.

Pardon me while I take my head off.

By the trunk.

Here, hold these.

Come on.

What do you do?

I don't know.

The hydraulic line.

Oh. Oh.

Yeah. Give me the wrench.

There. Good as new.

He wasn't much of a mechanic.

What's so funny? Well, you know, we've
been thinking of buying a new car.

Mm -hmm.

What kind would you like Walter to buy
us?

A small blue one.

Well, you know, after what Williams just
did, our brakes could go... at any

minute.

Why shouldn't we help him?

I love it.

You'll have to carry on without me. My
brakes, they're very mushy.

I'm going to find a service station.

I'm sorry you're having these problems,
Mr. Weston.

Welcome, Mrs. Weston.

Senator Hanover is already here.

See you later.

Mrs. Weston.

How do you do, Mrs.

Weston? Senator.

I didn't know we were going to have
another guest today, Mr. Geed.

Mrs. Weston is a member of the American
Center for Psychic Research.

Herself a practitioner.

Oh?

I hope nothing is going to interfere
with our seance today.

I hope not, Senator.

Shall we start the seance, Mr. Geed?

I don't like to hurry things, but...

Mrs. West, if there's anything I can do,
please ask.

Thank you.

Miss, I always left that car as ashes
and twisted metal.

But the techs will check it out.

Thank you, officer.

Mrs. Weston.

I'll have Williams drive you home.

There's nothing more you can do here,
believe me.

Right, officer?

Right.

Now, Mrs. Weston, I guess it was meant
to be.

And meant that we weren't to have a
seance today.

I'm so sorry.

Ow!

Mrs. Weston?

Something stung me. A little bug in my
ear.

Mr. G, did you mean what you said
earlier?

Of course.

What did I say?

If there's anything you could do for me,
I should ask?

Of course.

Just ask me.

Hold the seance.

Hold the seance?

Mm -hmm.

After this tragedy?

And let me talk to Dad.

I'm afraid, Miss Weston, this is out of
the question.

I mean, under these conditions...

His spirit in transition.

Which I would be too traumatic for.
She's emotionally overcome.

Oh, why not try, Jede?

Surely, if you can provide some comfort
for the lady.

I'm sorry, I must decline.

I'm psychically disturbed.

Another time. Oh, nonsense, Jede. I say
let's try.

Are you telling me you can't help this
lady speak to her dead husband?

Under different circumstances.

Oh, I see.

Circumstances that only suit your
timing, Jeed?

How many of my visits were made at the
right time?

Very well, Senator.

I can try, but I can't promise you
anything.

But as the Senator says, we can try.

Thank you very much.

Oh my god.

We are seeking the life spirits of
Daniel Weston, just departed.

Daniel Weston.

Daniel Weston.

It is your wife who seeks you.

I am here.

Can you appear for her?

It is not possible.

Dan? Yes?

I'm here, Kate.

But somebody is... is answering for me.

Kate.

My accident was not an accident.

It was murder.

I was murdered by Williams.

The hydraulic system was sabotaged by
Williams.

No! And Ernest Gide, who gave the order.

Williams!

Senator Hanover, are you here?

Yes, I'm here.

Margaret is here, Senator.

She wants to talk to you.

Things are not what they seem, Senator.

Margaret cannot appear this way.

Watch the chandelier, Senator.

There are evil spirits here.

Animus is all around us.

We are too close to death.

Right you are, Ernest Sheed.

Too close to my death.

The death you arranged through Williams.

Like the candle flame, Ernest Sheed.

Confess.

We must all get out of here.

There are evil spirits here.

You are a poltergeist.

Keep her away. She's a witch.

Lizzie Borden took an axe and gave her
mother 40 whacks. When she saw what she

had done, she gave her father 41.

There was an old woman that had three
sons, Jerry and James and John.

Jerry was hanged, James was drowned,
John was lost and never found. And there

was an end of her three sons, Jerry and
James and John.

Beware, Sheed, lest you lose the
substance by grasping the shadow. The

them that help themselves.

Appearances are often deceptive.

You think a dead man cannot fight?

Who killed Cock Robin?

I, said the sparrow, with my little bow
and arrow. I killed Cock Robin.

Who saw him die?

I, said the fly. I saw him die.

Confess, Sheed.

You murdered me.

No, it's a trick!

Confess. Confess.

Three times is true.

Three blind mice. See how they run. They
all run after the farmer's wife who

cuts off their tails with a carving
knife.

Confess, Sheed.

My blood is in your heart.

There was a little man and he had a
little gun and his bullets were made of

lead, lead, lead. He went to the brook,
saw a little duck and he shot it through

the head, head, head. And what I say
three times is true.

Confess, Sheed, or I'll haunt you
forever.

You mock things you do not understand.

Beginning to end, it wasn't fake.

Sorry, Senator.

It was a projection.

Film taken with a mask of your wife. A
hologram projecting through the

chandelier from the attic.

Operated by Williams with a remote
control device.

What's that? Yes, Mr. G.

I managed to get out of the car before
your brakes failed.

So it was all a trick.

Of course.

You knew they planned to kill you and
you staged this whole thing with the

connivance of Mrs. Weston? Yes, I
confess.

She's great, isn't she? You confess?

What's going on here? Oh, you can take
Mr. Sheed and Mr. Williams to

headquarters. We'll be preferring
charges of attempted murder and fraud.

How did you do it? Now, with an open
mind, Mr. Sheed, all things are

I mean, I know she's telekinetic.

But I've never seen such a virtuoso
effort.

Mrs.

Weston, how did you do it?

When I write my memoirs, Mr. Sheed, I'll
reveal all.

What a mistake I almost made.

I must apologize to Ben Baldwin.

Just wishful thinking, Senator.

Oh, yes.

I wanted so much to believe.

I'm very grateful to both of you for
having opened my eyes in time.

Tell me, Mrs. Weston, is it true you can
cause objects to rise by mind control?

Well...

Senator, but if you'll excuse us, we're
going to the lab to find out.
