All language subtitles for Hitchcock s01e27 Death And The Joyful Woman.eng

Good evening, ladies and gentlemen, and
welcome to the Alfred Hitchcock Hour. I

suppose you are wondering what kind of
dog this is.

It's an invisible one.

And this, as you can see, is an
invisible cat.

None of this is very remarkable until
you realize they are not fighting.

Peaceful coexistence seems to be a
natural side effect of invisibility.

We are now thinking of trying it on
human beings and television commercials.

After all, if my sponsors' messages were
invisible, I suspect I might not be as

critical as I am. I might even grow to
love them.

Death and the Joyful Woman is the name
of tonight's hour of charm.

But do not be deceived.

The story is very American, very
contemporary, and just a little bit

And now...

in a highly visible state, the sponsor's
message.

Your ID, buddy.

Kitty Norris.

You're not old enough to be drinking,
Dominic Fells.

Will you pay me not to tell?

Aguilar, private stock.

Hardly enough.

A comparable Norris champagne is
infinitely better.

I agree.

Has Mr. Aguilar made his entrance yet?

He's still upstairs with his secretary
or whatever she is. Oh, boy, those two

are really a pair.

Hey, what are you doing coming in the
back door?

I hardly think that's proper.

Well, I thought I'd case the joint
first.

Anybody good here? Everybody Aguilar
hates. You know, the usual guests.

Except, uh, Al here.

Al Aguilar is here?

Right as white.

kids. They must be desperate.

Where are they?

You see, sitting on the couch behind the
piano.

I've been sitting there for almost an
hour. I haven't moved.

Nobody's even talked to him except me,
and all I said was, hi, I'll hand me

glass, please.

Hey, Dominic.

Hey, Kitty.

Watch yourself at all times. Oh, yes, ma
'am. And do exactly as I say. Yes, ma

'am. Run out and ask Al and Jean if
they'll join me in the kitchen. Tell

I'm hiding out here. I want to talk to
them.

Say please.

Please please please.

Gene, take him home.

Can't do anything, what are you getting?

I got an invitation, Kitty.

My big A invitation.

Of course you got an invitation. You got
one last year, too, but you had sense

enough not to come.

Yeah.

Last year I didn't have to come. I get
to go pay the rent.

This year I can't.

I have come to beg.

Who knows? He may have changed. I
haven't seen him since he kicked me out.

That heart may have a soft center. It
may have melted just a bit in the last

years. I wouldn't count on it.

That's what I told him, Kitty.

But in some ways, he's like a father to
me.

She means stubborn.

Hey, Dominic.

What are you doing working here?

Oh, just trying to make enough money to
be able to propose to Kitty Norris.

Will you marry me, Kitty?

Ask me again in a couple of years.

Dominic's my buddy. Oh, yeah, buddy.

And tennis partner and attorney.

True. He talked his mean old policeman
father out of giving me a traffic ticket

last week, didn't you?

And I'm in love with her.

You tell him, Tiger.

How is that mean old policeman father of
yours? He got promoted up to the

homicide squad.

It's dead, though. No business.

You'll have to tell Louise.

Hello, Al.

Hello, Ruth.

Thanks for the invitation.

Oh, it wasn't from me. I wouldn't have
sent it. Your father put your name at

head of the list.

How are you, Kitty?

Hello, Ruth.

Hi, Jean.

Your father watched you drive up while
he was tying his tie.

He's in a mean mood, Al.

Well, take a bottle of wine up to Mr.
Aguilar's bedroom immediately. He's

waiting for it.

Red or white, please?

The white wine.

It's called a joyful woman, Dominique.
Oh, he's always in a mean mood right

before harvest.

But tonight, something nice is going to
happen.

Which is Mr. Aguilar's room? Second
floor, first door on the right.

Don't be afraid, he's not going to bite
you.

Mr. Aguilar is waiting.

Come on, I'll give you a push.

Straight up.

You know what Jack found at the top of
the beanstalk, don't you?

Go on, you big coward.

Go on, go on.

Open it, boy.

Show me the label.

Excuse me, sir.

Have my guests arrived?

Well, there's a lot of people
downstairs, sir.

They are downstairs.

Wolves, jackals, snakes, and dogs.

Thank you.

For he's a jolly good fellow, for he's a
jolly good fellow, for he's a jolly

good fellow, for he's a jolly good
fellow.

How beautiful you always are, Kitty.

Thank you, my darling.

Hello, Father.

I want to talk to you.

I want to talk to you, too.

Alone. Good.

It's been a long time since we chatted
together.

Come on, I want you to see my new
tasting room.

Louis, your guest.

You play horses, Ruth.

Follow us.

Bring

two

magnums of the Joyful Woman and follow
us. Yes, sir.

I'm going up to the tasting house.

I don't want to be disturbed.

Yes, sir. Come on out.

Come on, silly. Everything's all right.

A little bitter.

Understandable. Bottle the year you
disobeyed me.

You know I don't drink?

Oh, yes.

I forgot.

I forgot.

So?

You said you wanted to talk to me.

Well?

I have to have some money.

You do?

This has been a very bad year, Al. I've
had a lot of expenses.

I bought myself five new suits at $300
apiece. A car, $8 ,000.

$10 ,000 for a trip to Europe and...
Don't interrupt me.

Beautiful pair of cufflinks, $1 ,000.

Four or five new paintings and... Oh,
yes, I...

I bought Ruth a necklace and a fur coat.

A secretary must have a fur coat.

$14 ,000.

Al, I won't give you a cent.

And if you care...

You are no longer in my will.

My only son.

I only asked him to do one thing. One
thing was all I ever asked.

It was all set up.

I could have doubled this empire.

I didn't love Kitty.

I didn't ask you to love.

I asked only one thing.

She didn't love me either.

Stop talking about love.

It was a business arrangement.

A merger.

The merger of the Norris Aguilar wines.

But the only son of Luis Aguilar, the
only one who could have carried it off,

the thing I've been working on for
years, that only son to spite his

he loped with a harvester that worked in
the fields.

have some money.

I am no longer your father, Mr.

X.

You are no longer an Aguilar.

You're going to be a grandfather.

Gene's going to have a baby.

The thought of it makes me sick.

Al, come on.

Please, please.

You'd like to kill me, wouldn't you?

Oh, stop it. I saw it in your eyes.

I saw you wanted to murder me.

You want to kill me, don't you?

Yes. Yes!

men enough?

Are you men enough, Mr. X?

Mr. X, you're not leaving, are you?

Did you call me father?

How much money do you need for this?

This blessed event.

Thousand dollars.

I tried to borrow it at the bank, but
they're all friends of yours.

I knew about that, but I didn't know
what it was for.

How would you like to leave here tonight
with, say, $5 ,000?

I'm not up to that.

Al, how old are you now, boy?

Twenty -six.

Twenty -six.

My, my.

Time certainly flies fast, doesn't it?

When I was 26, my father and I had a
little contest, and I won $5 ,000.

I know about that.

You see, it's a tradition in the Aguilar
family that when a son can outdrink his

father, he becomes a man.

I was 26 before I could do it.

The mother of Al didn't approve of such
contests.

She didn't approve of her son drinking,
so he didn't drink.

But now that she's no longer here, now
that you can no longer hide behind her,

offer you the same terms my father
offered me.

$5 ,000 against what money you have in
your pocket.

Drink for drink.

And the first one who passes out loses.

We even have a witness here.

who is both referee and poorer.

I'm already a few drinks ahead of you,
boy, so you have a running start.

I, Luis Aguilar, agree to pay Alfred...

Aguilar, hereafter known as Mr.

X, the sum of $5 ,000, if he can drink

me under the table.

Come on, Mr. X.

Five thousand dollars will buy a lovely
bassinet, lots of baby food, pay doctor

bills, and I offer you the best of all
the wines.

The joyful woman.

Prove something to me, boy.

Prove something.

How much money do you have in your
pocket?

Two dollars and forty cents.

$2 .40 against $5 ,000.

Bring me a glass from over there.

Bring two glasses exactly alike.

Sit down, Mr. Rex.

Put

your

money on the table.

So much like your mother.

So much.

Is it empty?

Yes, sir.

The end of a magnum of the joyful woman
is a very sad thing.

Come on, drink.

Drink.

This is no contest.

This is no aguilar tradition.

Are you finished?

Let's try some nice red wine.

No need to waste another magnum. We only
have a couple of more glasses to go.

Before it's finished.

special wine that bottled the year you
were born.

However, it was not a vintage year.

Red wine.

Drink.

Drink.

You are losing, Mr. X.

You are losing.

Drink. I can't drink anymore.

Wake up.

I want you to see that I won.

Still out there?

Yes.

Mr. Aguilar's guests are getting
impatient.

I'll go see what's happening.

Louis?

of the thing you found to spite me with?

So you are.

Take Mr. X home.

Someone help me. Help her.

Don't you cry.

Don't you cry.

Get him out of here.

Don't you cry.

Luis, you have a house full of guests.

Kitty. I'll get some coffee. I don't
want any coffee.

Do you like my tasting room, Kitty?

Yes, it's very nice.

Have you ever seen the Aguilar cellars
and caves?

Al and I used to play there when we were
kids.

Mr. Aguilar.

Al loved his wife very much.

I wanted him to marry you.

I know.

But you can't... You can't force that on
someone.

He should have listened to me.

Look what he ended up with.

A mouse.

Would you have married him, Kitty?

Mr. Aguilar... Don't call me Mr.
Aguilar.

My name is Luis.

What a lovely vision I had, Kitty.

The two greatest vineyards.

One vineyard.

It would take days to see it in a car.

Oh, Kitty.

You are very beautiful.

A girl who has everything. What could I
possibly offer?

I don't understand.

You know, Kitty, that vision can still
be realized.

I am going to make you fall in love with
me.

Mr. Haggis.

Kitty. Leave us alone.

Ruth.

Ruth. Let her go.

Let her go.

I offer you the consideration of an
empire.

Will you marry me, Kitty?

I think your father, if he were alive,
would approve.

Don't you, Kitty?

Kitty,

would you... Would you...

Get out of here.

Get out of here.

It's almost twelve, Luis.

Go away.

But at twelve you were going to make the
announcement.

I am not making any announcement at 12
or 3

or 4.

I heard what you said to Kitty about
marrying her.

Good.

Now go away.

You didn't mean it.

Yes, I did.

I meant every word I said.

Every word.

Every word.

Oh, Al's going to have quite a... Kitty?

Dr.

Aguilar.

I think he's dead.

What?

I pushed him away from me and he fell
down the stairs.

And I went down to him and he didn't
move. He's lying on the tasting room

I think he's dead.

Are you sure?

Oh, what am I going to do, Dominic? What
am I going to do?

Where are you going?

I'll go take a look.

We better call your father.

All right, but don't tell anyone else.

Now relax.

I'll be back in a minute.

Mr. Aguilar?

Mr. Aguilar.

Mr. Aguilar.

For the

next moment, ladies and gentlemen, we
cut your wire to the world and abandon

to the tender mercies of your local
station.

Good evening and welcome to the second
half of the Alfred Hitchcock Hour.

As you know, our sponsor is not exactly
the type of person who has streets named

for him.

He has never even had an hour named in
his honour.

All he gets is one minute.

We give it to him now.

He's dead.

Yes.

The king is dead.

It was an accident. He fell down the
stairs.

That didn't happen falling down the
stairs?

No.

You're too bright a boy to waste time
on.

Such simple arithmetic.

Two and two are still the same.

Do you have the answer, young man?

Yes.

Too bad, too bad, too bad.

But why?

Why?

Because I was the only one who loved
him.

After 20 years of being patient, waiting
for his wife to die,

and then still waiting after she was
dead, I'm going to

marry you, Ruth.

Just be patient.

Then last week, he said he would marry
me this fall.

After 20 years of being a secretary, a
letter opener, a letter typer,

he said to make all the arrangements and
he

would make the announcement tonight.

Tonight at the stroke of 12.

Right now.

This moment.

Someone who loved him to hate him enough
to finally do it.

But he's just as guilty as I am.

He wasn't planning on marrying me.

And there's an end of patience.

No.

You can't go just yet.

Not just yet.

Open the door.

Dominic!

Dominic!

Keep going.

Up the stairs.

Stop right here

You're

sure the door is locked I'm positive
it's one of these I think I'm never

sure I rarely go into the tasting house
myself

Mr. Feltz, there's still no sign of
Dominic.

I should have called you sooner, but
Dominic wanted to go down there, and I

so upset that I didn't know what I was
doing, and then I saw Mr. Aguilar like

that.

Mr. Feltz, what do you think happened to
Dominic?

Get the addresses and phone numbers of
everyone at the party.

You go back and remember.

I'm going down to the police room.

Kitty.

Is it true?

Yes.

He's dead.

Dead.

He's dead.

Just a couple more questions, Miss
Hamilton.

You interviewed and hired the help that
came here just for the party tonight,

didn't you?

Yes. Do you remember hiring a boy named
Dominic Feltz?

Feltz? Yes, my son.

Yes.

I remember hiring him, but... What is he
to do with...

I don't know. He's disappeared.

Disappeared?

Well, his car's still here, but nobody's
seen him.

I'm a little worried.

Both father and policeman are pretty
hard to play.

I'm sorry.

Oh, I've had a terrible, terrible
experience.

You try and get some rest.

Yes.

Yes.

But I don't think I can.

I don't think I can.

I don't think I can.

You can let them all go, except the maid
and the butler. All right.

You examine the body?

How many blows?

Several, George.

I can't be sure yet, but six or seven at
least.

Hello, Susan.

He's not home?

Now, Susan, don't get hysterical. Just
keep your head. We'll find him.

Now, please.

Look, you have the number here. If you
hear from Dominic or need me, you just

call me.

Now, calm down, Susan. You hear me?

Yeah, I'll call you the minute I know
anything.

I wish there was something I could do to
help.

He would get mixed up in something like
this.

He's one of these I'll play detective
kind of kids.

Well, the three of you can go on home.
You'll hear from me tomorrow.

If you don't mind, I'd like to stay.

Dominic is a friend of mine.

I know.

He's a friend of mine, too.

How's Ruth?

Not too good.

She's suffering pretty much.

We're excusing her.

She really loved him.

She put up with her life, but she really
loved him.

They were going to be married.

What?

She told me during the party.

They were going to be married this fall.

He was supposed to announce it at
midnight.

The dress she had on was part of the
trousseau.

She was so sure that once she became
your stepmother, she could patch

up between you and your father.

They were going to be married.

Did you tell Mr.

Fells?

Should I?

Kitty?

What time was that?

Well, I would say about 12 .30 or so. I
don't wear a watch, so I can't say

exactly. Excuse me.

I never heard about any marriage plans
between Ruth and Mr. Aguilar.

Jean just told me about it a few moments
ago.

Ruth must have been terribly upset when
she heard the way Mr. Aguilar was

talking to me.

She left without saying a word. And I
don't remember seeing her at the party

after Dominic went down there.

Have you seen my son, Miss Hamilton?

Where is my son? Oh, don't worry.

I'll take good care of him.

Luis and I will take good care...
Everything happens in

threes.

Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up, wake
up, wake up. Come on now, walk, walk,

walk. Where's Dominic? Where's the boy?
Where is the boy? Where is my son?

Luis, Luis.

No, I want to die.

Where is my son?

Where is my son?

In the caves.

Go get the doctor. Send him for a
respirator. All right. All right. Come

Dominic. Breathe.

Come on, son.

Breathe.

Breathe.

Breathe.

Come on.

Come on.

Come on.

Breathe.

Breathe, son.

That's my boy.

Dad.

Hey, Dominic.

Hey, Kitty.

Now listen, buddy.

You watch it, you understand?

Yes, ma 'am.

Do everything I say.

Oh, yes, ma 'am.

If you do, I'll give you a great big
gold guitar.

Yes, ma 'am.

Sorry to be late, but I've been arguing
with my sponsor.

And he has now been convinced that
invisibility will help my attitude

commercial. After all, if I can't see
it, how can... My sponsor seems to have

missed the point.

Needless to say, next on view is a
commercial.
