All language subtitles for Alfred Hitchcock s02e02 Fog Closing In.eng

Good evening, friends and others.

Tonight, madam.

Some of our audience are having
difficulty in seeing. Would you mind?

Thank you.

On the theory that what was good enough
for Shakespeare is good enough for us,

we plan to open tonight's play with a
maid soliloquizing as she does.

Unfortunately, tonight happens to be the
maid's night out.

I'm expecting an important call.

It must be Scotland Yard calling.

Yes.

Thank you.

It was.

They say I'm being watched.

That's very gratifying for a television
performer.

Tonight's play is entitled Fog Closing
In.

Fog. I don't suppose any of you are
familiar with that word.

It's an American expression meaning it's
really hard to explain to anyone who

hasn't experienced it.

The word has no English equivalent.

Oh, well, it isn't too important.

We'd better go on with the play.

No. Don't worry. It won't go off. I know
how to handle a gun.

I don't care. Just put it back in the
drawer.

You said you'd feel better while I was
away if you had a gun. I was wrong.

It wouldn't help.

What would, Mary?

I don't know. Not being left alone in
this enormous old house, I suppose.

You're the one who wanted to take it.

We could have that apartment in town.

Yes, I suppose we could have.

Only it was so small.

Nobody would have been able to stay
overnight, let alone... Let alone move

permanently. Isn't that what you were
going to say?

Not permanently, necessarily, but... The
answer is still no.

We had your parents with us for five
years.

Do you dislike them so much?

I don't dislike them at all.

I just don't want them living with us.

And what's more, I'm tired of arguing
about it, so let's drop it right now.

You think I'm being terribly selfish,
don't you? I don't know what you're

Mary.

I've almost given up trying to figure
you out.

All I know is I moved out here from the
east to get away from your parents.

To get you away from them.

And you're not going to talk me into
bringing them out here and starting the

whole thing all over again, and that's
final.

We're going downstairs to wait for my
cab.

You called for a cab, sir?

Oh, yes. Wait just a second, please.

Arthur, I'm sorry. I'm so sorry.

Well, you wait in the cab. I'll be right
out.

Sure.

Arthur, I... I don't want to keep the
cab waiting, Mary.

Of course not. I just couldn't let you
leave without telling you how sorry I

Okay. Let's forget it, huh?

I don't blame you for being angry with
me.

I promised myself I wouldn't bring the
subject up again, but then when I

realized you'd be gone a whole week,
I... Mary, I'm a salesman. I have to

a certain amount of time on the road.

Yes, I know you do.

That's what I meant before. I wasn't
really being selfish. I was thinking

you, too.

Oh? I know how much it's costing you to
keep that house for my parents, and...

Don't you see if they could...

come here and live with us, then... then
we'd only have one house to run and...

and you wouldn't have the expense of
paying Mrs. Carney to come and... stay

me while you're away and... And you'd be
happier.

Yes, I... I'd be happier.

Why?

Well, I... I love them and I... I miss
them and... I'd feel safer if they were

here with me.

Safe from what?

What is it you're afraid of?

I don't know.

Well, isn't it about time you found out?

You can't go on being like this for the
rest of your life.

I don't want to be.

But you're away so much.

My being away hasn't anything to do with
it.

You're not any better when I'm here.

You're still afraid.

Afraid of everything.

I don't know how to make you feel safe,
Mary.

I just don't know.

It wasn't like this before when Mother
and Daddy were with us.

You're 35 years old. You can't go on
clinging to your parents for the rest of

your life.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

Honey, don't.

Look, I know I sound tough sometimes,
but I don't mean to.

It's just that I'm trying to help you,
but I don't know how.

Tell me how, Mary.

Tell me what I can do.

You've done everything. I don't know
what more you can do.

I don't know why you even put up with
me.

It's because I love you.

It's because I want us to have a life
together.

A good life.

Well, so do I, Arthur.

I don't know why I'm this way. Honestly,
I don't.

Let's do something about it.

What can we do?

Mary, whatever's wrong, whatever you're
afraid of or running away from, it just

isn't real.

It's something in your mind.

So maybe a psychiatrist.

You mean you think I'm losing my mind?
Of course not. I didn't say that.

Going to a psychiatrist isn't anything
today. Lots of people go.

People who need help because they're
troubled.

I can't do it, Arthur.

Please, don't ask me to, please.

You want to find out, don't you?

I'm not... I'm not sure that I do.

Maybe it's something terrible.

But, Mary... You'd better go.

He's getting impatient.

All right.

But will you do me a favor? Will you at
least think about it while I'm gone?

Yes, I'll think about it.

Take it easy, huh?

Mrs. Connolly should be here pretty
soon, so you won't have to be alone

Yes, I'll be all right.

That's better.

The office will know where to reach me
if you need me.

Incidentally, will you do me one more
favor?

I know you'll want to call your father,
but will you wait until after six when

the rates go down?

Yes.

Our telephone bill last month looked
like the national debt.

Yes, I'll wait.

Goodbye, Arthur.

So long.

Long distance?

Operator, could you tell me the
difference in the rate to New York City

six and after six?

Oh, as much as all that.

No, I'd better wait till six.

Thank you.

Hello, Mr. Connolly.

How are you?

Don't tell me your wife's not coming.

Oh, thank heavens for a minute. I was
frightened.

No, she isn't here yet.

Is there anything wrong?

You're sure?

Yes, I'll have her call you as soon as
she gets here.

Goodbye.

Hello, operator?

I'd like to place a call to New York,
please.

Yes, the number is my...

frighten me.

How'd you get in here?

Hey, Kitty.

Don't be afraid. I'm not going to hurt
you.

Who are you?

Please let me stay here for a little
while, and then I'll go away.

I promise you, I'll go away.

You're hiding from someone, aren't you?

Yeah.

Police?

No.

Now, please don't ask me any more
questions, because I'm not going to hurt

Really, I'm not.

If you're not hiding from the police,
then...

You must be from the hospital. The state
hospital?

I'm not going back there. I'm not going
to go back there.

Are they trying to make you?

They're going to be here any minute.

They warned everybody.

They said I'm dangerous.

They said I do terrible things to
people.

But that's not true.

Because if I did, I'd remember it.

You can't do things and not remember
them, can you?

I don't know.

Oh, I'm so tired.

All I want to do is rest.

I've been running for hours and hiding
and... You can't rest standing up in the

hall. You better come into the living
room.

No, I can't. They'll see me through the
window.

Oh, no, they won't.

The blinds are closed.

Come on.

Look, you don't need to worry.

You can trust me.

You won't tell them I'm here when they
come, will you?

No, I won't tell them.

I know what it's like to be afraid of a
place.

Come on.

Come on.

Be careful.

There's no one out there.

Look, why don't you stretch out and
rest?

There's no time. They're right behind
me. They're going to be here any minute.

Even a few minutes would help.

I'll get you something hot to drink.

Why are you being so kind to me?

I suppose I understand what it's like to
be afraid.

You know, you're luckier than I am.

You're afraid of being shut up, and I
don't even know what I'm afraid of, and

it's worse, much worse.

Oh, there's nothing worse than being
shut up.

Nothing. Oh, but you're wrong.

Don't you remember what it was like
before, before you went into the

You must have been afraid then, even if
you didn't know what you were afraid of.

I was always afraid of everything.

Of everybody.

And... What's that?

It's just a telephone. I left it off the
hook.

I... I was calling my mother when I
heard you out there in the hall.

Oh, that wasn't me.

I didn't make any noise.

I've been out there for a long time.

And I was hardly breathing.

And then that cat got in here.

And I got so scared because she knocked
that vase over. And I heard you coming.

I didn't know you were going to be like
this.

I didn't know it either.

You know, it's funny we can talk this
way, isn't it?

I don't even know your name.

It's Ted.

Ted Lambert.

Mine's Mary Hadley.

Oh.

Why'd I say that?

It's Summers.

It used to be Mary Hadley before I got
married.

Where's your husband?

Oh, he's away on a trip, a business
trip. He travels a great deal.

Then you're all alone?

Yes, I'm alone.

Ted, I... I want to ask you something.

Was there ever a time when...

You felt safe?

I don't think so.

Oh.

Then you are worse off than I am.

At least I can remember a time when I
was.

It was a long time ago. I was just a
little girl.

You see, then, even if I was frightened
of something, it didn't last long.

Like, I remember once I got lost.

A policeman found me and brought me
home. I was crying, and my daddy put his

arms around me.

Sometimes I can still feel his arms.

He said, don't cry, baby.

You're safe now.

You'll always be safe with mother and
me, and I always was.

I always was.

Well, then why are you afraid?

Because I'm alone.

They're not here with me. But your
husband. Oh, he doesn't understand.

He's very kind and good, but he doesn't
understand what it's like to be rain.

Ted, I want to tell you something else.

Something I've never told anyone.

You mustn't tell anyone either.

I won't, I promise.

I never wanted to get married.

I only did it because my mother and
daddy lost all their money, and Arthur

so kind and generous.

I knew he'd help me take care of them,
and I thought they could stay with me,

and then everything would go on just the
way it always had.

I wish I could take care of you.

I wish I could help you.

Oh, no, I don't think anyone can help me
now.

I don't think anyone can stop it from
happening. I even know where it's going

happen.

Because I've dreamt about it.

A lot of times. And it's always the same
dream.

Well, I have bad dreams, too.

Mine's always the same dream.

I'm always in my bedroom.

That's what I meant before about saying
I understood about being afraid of a

place.

Because I...

I'm afraid of my bedroom. I sometimes
think if I don't go there, it won't have

to happen.

That's not really true.

How can you remember what you dream?

I can't ever remember.

I wake up and I know I've been dreaming
about something.

I can't ever remember what it was.

I guess because mine's always the same.

I'm up there all alone, waiting for
something, and

there's a sound downstairs like a door
closing.

There are footsteps on the stairs.

They come up very slowly, one at a time,
until it reaches the door, and

the knob turns, and the door begins to
open.

I'd never know what it is because that's
when I always wake up.

I wake up screaming.

Well, they say that dreams don't come
true.

Oh, yes, mine will.

Well, maybe not.

They're here, they're here, they're
here.

It's all right.

I won't let them in. Don't be
frightened. They're going to make you

to search so they can find out if you're
safe.

You can hide in the back hall where you
were before and I'll bring them in here

first. Then you can get away.

Go on, hurry.

Hurry.

Thank you.

Yes? Sorry to bother you, ma 'am. We're
from the state hospital.

State hospital?

Yes, one of the patients wandered away
and we're looking for him. Would you

if we search the house to be sure he
isn't here?

I don't see how that's possible.

Well, just to be on the safe side.

Quite all right with me. Come in.

Thanks.

You may as well start in the living
room.

It's right in here.

No place we could hide in this room.

I'm sure it's not here.

I'll show you the rest of the house now,
if you like. If you wouldn't mind.

My cat knocked it over.

I just haven't cleaned it up yet.

Sorry to put you in so much trouble, ma
'am, but it was for your own good.

I appreciate it.

Funny, I was sure when I found that
broken lock on the back door that he was

here. It was nice of you to fix it.

Under the circumstances, it wouldn't be
very safe to leave it broken.

But you're all right now.

Oh, yes, I'll be fine, thank you. Good
night. Good night.

Long distance?

I'd like to place a call to New York
City, please.

Yes, the number is Murray Hill, 30598.

Thank you.

Oh, but all the circuits can't be busy.

Oh, I see you.

Well, will you call me back as soon as
you can get through, please?

Thank you.

Oh, here you are.

I was worried about you when I heard
that man from the hospital was on the

loose, so I came back.

Mary?

Mary don't look like that. It's me,
Arthur.

Yes, Daddy.

I'm all right now.

Now I come home.

This concludes our play for tonight.

Unhappily for Mary Summers, however,
there is more to her story.

for she subsequently found herself in
one of those institutions she had come

fear. Next time, we shall be back with
another story.

Until then, good night.
