Original subtitles

(peaceful piano music)

(Boy): I can't believe you're doin' this.

(Girl): Just because I'm transferring to another school

doesn't mean I'm gonna turn

into a completely different person, Barry.

(BOY): Oh, I get it.

Now it's just another high school, is it?

I thought Ettinger was one of these fancy private schools

like Harvard or somethin'.

(Girl): What have you got against Ettinger anyway?

(Boy): Well, I'll tell you what I got against this.

Just a bunch of preppy wimps runnin' around

with blazers and gold-plated pencils

and they got buildings named after their families

and stuff like that.

(Girl): (laughing) So when did you become an expert

on prep schools?

(rock music)

(lyrics) All summertime, you've been on my mind

Now it's back to school

Paper, pens, and books

Teachers' dirty looks

They're too bright to fool

You want to lose those teenage blues

Come on with me, you know you can't refuse

Don't read a thing, but we'll make the news

Everybody knows action speaks louder than words

Listen to the beat, get up on your feet, let's go

Call me anytime if you have a dime

Use the MCI

Classes are a bore, lectures make ya snore

There's no reason why

You want to lose those teenage blues

Come on with me, you know you can't refuse

Don't read a thing, but we'll make the news

Everybody knows action speaks louder than words

Listen to the beat, get up on your feet, let's go

(beeping)

Turn this down.

You're gonna get me kicked out of school

before I even start.

(lowers music volume)

You need any help?

No, I think it just overheated.

It happens all the time.

Welcome to Ettinger.

Thanks, I'm Andrea.

I'm Philo.

Hi.

Hi.

I guess you got the situation under control?

Yeah. Sure do.

Thanks for the offer.

Take care.

(Andrea laughs)

(eerie piano music)

Pardon me, my good man.

Could you show me to the polo lounge?

Are you attempting to be humorous?

I can't take this!

A roommate who won't laugh at my jokes?

I'm gonna end up talkin' to myself.

I mean more than normal.

I'm personal friends with Ralph Lauren.

We're like this.

(horse neighs)

Jerk.

(horn beeps)

Oh my god!

Get the hell away from me.

Miriam, get back in the car.

But, Martin!

Better do it, mom.

Martin!

What is going to happen to him?

Martin!

He's Ettinger property now.

Don't cross me, John.

This school is your last chance.

Hey, are you okay?

Fuck off.

That's Senator Felner.

He's an alumnus.

Yeah, I'd vote for that guy.

(lyrics) You want to go and have some fun

Call all your friends, ask everyone

Let's go crazy, let's go insane

Let's get crazy, let's get wild

Let's go crazy, let's go insane

Let's go crazy, let's go wild

I guess I'm your roommate.

Oh, hi, I'm Suzi Marmont.

Andrea Miller.

So you are a girl.

I think so, yeah.

Well I was sort of wondering.

There aren't too many of us around.

Oh really, Suzi?

Well I thought I was gonna have to fight off

all these boys by my little old self.

You ain't gonna catch me complainin', honey.

Know what I mean?

Andrea, this is Mary Beth.

She lives right across the hall.

Hi, nice to meet you.

Oh shit.

There aren't gonna be enough outlets in this room.

So I guess the lace curtains are on my side of the room, huh?

(chuckles) I'm sorry, I'll clean this right up.

(rock music)

Sorry.

Extra outlets?

Hey, hey, hey, hey.

(classical piano music)

Excuse me, please.

(clatter)

Thanks a lot.

You're quite welcome.

Have a nice day.

You know, this place smells of success.

I love it!

Me too.

Real friendly people you got around here.

Suzi, this is Barry.

Oh, your boyfriend.

Ha, ex-boyfriend, lately.

Oh yeah?

That's nice.

Oh, Jesus, my car.

I gotta go.

I don't wanna get stuck on the road at night, okay?

- Bye. Suzi. - (Suzi): Bye!

See ya.

Be back in a couple minutes.

Come on, don't be like that.

Gotta grow up sometime.

(mysterious music)

You know I don't give up easy, Andrea.

I'll be back.

Well, you're not so mature yourself.

(mysterious music)

(rock music)

Let me tell you, I'm deliriously happy

to be away from home.

We've got the opportunity here to have some serious fun.

Yeah.

I mean, think about it.

We're the first girls ever at this place.

We'll have all those cute guys begging for our bodies.

I think I've died and gone to heaven (chuckles).

Listen, this is gonna sound completely bizarre to you,

but I did come here to study.

Oh, give me a break!

No, but, Suzi, did you see that guy

who was talkin' to me outside before?

He was tall with dark hair.

Well you're not wasting any time, are you?

Really, you've barely got

the long-distance boyfriend out the door,

and already you're checkin' out the locals?

You know, it's gonna be an interesting year.

Suzi, it's not like I was in love

with him or anything, okay?

But he was just staring right through me, ya know?

Look, look, you don't need to make any excuses to me.

I mean, there's only so much temptation

that a girl can resist.

So, honey, why bother?

Amen (chuckles).

Hey, I'm going jogging'.

Y'all wanna come?

No, Andrea and I have our own form of exercise, don't we?

Uh, no comment.

Yeah, I'm sure you do.

Catch y'all later.

Bye.

(Suzi laughs)

(ominous music)

(creaking door)

(woman screaming)

- Did you hear something? - No.

You know that there's a 10:1 ratio of guys to girls here?

Oh, I'm sure that had nothing to do

with your decision to enroll here.

Of course not. (chuckles)

(gasp) Andrea, look at the dreamboat up in the window.

He's the one I was telling you about.

- Come on. - Oh yeah?

Let's wave.

Suzi!

Where'd he go?

(laughs) Honey, he's cute.

You think he saw us?

I hope not.

Look.

Andrea, if you like him, you should do something about it.

I don't even know him.

Well, if you don't, I will.

You need a chaperone.

(applause)

Good morning.

I am Doctor Beauregard Eisner,

Dean of Ettinger Academy.

On behalf of the entire faculty,

I extend a warm welcome to our new students.

Especially you young women who are the very first

to be admitted to Ettinger Academy

in our long and rich history.

Who's that?

Big man on campus?

At Ettinger,

we believe in the reward for high endeavor.

The soundness of the Academy's methods

is attested to by the increasing numbers

of our successful alumni.

Senators...

Shut up. Dickhead.

(Eisner): Ettinger precepts...

Somebody's tuition check must've bounced.

...even reached as high as the Oval Office.

So you see, the future belongs to those

with the courage to seize it.

Again, I bid you welcome

and leave you with these immortal words:

Our school motto:

Carpe Diem, Seize the Day.

(all singing) Seize the day!

(laughter)

See, my whole theory is inbreeding.

You know, I believe that rich people marry other rich people

and they have stupid offspring

and then the extent of this idiocy is directly proportional

to how much money they have.

I call it the Kooky Cash Theory.

It's very widely accepted.

Can I interest you in one

of these beautiful rotten baby carrots?

Oh, no potatoes.

Uh, thank you.

Give me potatoes, I'll kill your entire family.

I guess I wanted my chicken a la mode anyway.

That's fine, thanks.

It looks delicious though.

Close encounters.

I'll have a double order of potatoes.

Can't exactly call that tradition.

Yeah, I call it meal fascist capitalism.

Alright, I gotta go-

I got three duty slips this week.

You got three?

How do we get off of that stuff?

I don't know, I gotta work for the blood drive.

- You wanna give? - Me? No. No way.

I hate the sight of blood, especially when it's my own.

So, uh, you got a boyfriend or anything?

I have a boyfriend surplus at the moment.

Oh, good.

You'll just have to yearn for me from afar.

Okay-

I'll see ya.

Come up and visit sometime, alright?

(choir singing)

Look at this stuff.

I can tell I am not going to like this class.

Hello, my name is Slim.

I'm new here. What's yours?

Hi, Emerson.

Don't waste your time.

She's already going steady with a football player.

Ooh, really? What's your name then?

Get lost.

Is that Get short for Gertrude or Getty?

Suzi, this is Paul Emerson.

Hi, Suzi, wanna go out?

Andrea, check out that guy two rows back, black sweater.

(Paul): Forget it. That's Phillip, my roommate.

He's a total droid. Brain dead.

Ya know, stupid.

Drooler.

(door creaking)

Hi, I'm Louis Philo and this is Biology 47.

Oh my God.

For the first couple of lectures,

we'll be dealing with the anatomy of the brain.

Later on in the semester, each of you will have a chance

to dissect your own animal brain.

At that point some of you will be delighted

that this is not the last class before lunch.

The course will touch on some

of the many philosophical questions associated

with modern biology.

We'll look at the newest work on brainwave studies

regarding such phenomena as hypnosis and meditation

and condition the brain as computer

which can be reprogrammed.

To all you new students,

I want to welcome you to Ettinger.

You're gonna have a good time.

(Suzi): Can you imagine 100 years without women?

They're starving for our attention

and we're the best looking girls here.

(unintelligible)

What are we going to do?

We were outvoted in the committee meeting.

I hate women.

It's done now.

The only thing I hate more than women is men.

(rock music)

Suzi, Suzi, wait.

Look, I don't care what he says.

I think they're terrific shoes.

As a matter of fact, they ought to be a mandatory part

of the dress code.

Thanks.

As a matter of fact, I think we can probably come up

with a new uniform for the school.

What do you say I drop by your apartment like midnight?

We'll work on it, okay?

Read my lips. No.

- Bye. - Bye.

Hey, hi, welcome.

I'm on the welcoming committee and I...

Okay, welcome.

(whistle)

(phone ringing)

(Man): 46!

(whistle)

(phone ringing)

(whistle)

(classical violin and piano music)

(Suzi): I don't know what I'm doing wrong.

The only guys I can get to even look at me

in this school are freshmen geeks like Emerson.

Oh, come on.

He's a nice boy.

Honey, nice is how your mother describes

her best friend's zit-faced son.

You know what I mean?

Sexy is what I'm interested in.

Take Philo.

Oof.

He is a god, isn't he?

I'm serious.

(country music)

Okay, what are you two up to?

Hey.

I'm just tryin' to find a decent radio station.

I'm sick of all the Muzak stuff

they've been playing around this school.

(phone rings)

Hello?

Hey, baby.

How are ya?

Fine.

You ready to quit yet? I'll pick ya up on my new bike.

Well, used bike. Ah, you know what I mean anyway.

Barry, I'm not gonna quit.

Well, maybe you would if you knew more about the place.

Guess what I found out today

about your fancy little prep school?

You know the guy that started the place?

He's a psycho.

Psycho?

Yeah, Colonel Ettinger.

Got thrown out of the U.S. Cavalry

for scalpin' Indians in the 1800s.

Barry.

He and his buddies, they started a group

called the Brotherhood of Eternal Knowledge.

What the hell are you talking about?

In the library.

I checked the whole history about it.

I know what you're trying to do.

You know, I got this scholarship

and I'm gonna see it through.

I have to go.

Andrea.

(dial tone)

(sighs) Shit.

(sighs) He's freakin' out, man.

I swear he's willing to say anything

to get me to leave this school.

(piano music)

(suspenseful music)

(creaking door)

(country music)

(muffled cries)

(chanting in Latin)

(gasp)

(Man): We will commence the new term with something novel.

A translation of Julius Caesar's diatribe

on the Gaelic Wars.

Mr. Felner.

If you would be so kind as to begin, Mr. Felner.

What?

The text on page eight, Mr. Felner.

You do have the text?

Oh, gosh, I guess I must have left it some place.

You don't have the text?

You may look on with your neighbor.

(speaks in Latin).

Translation, please, Mr. Felner.

(speaks in Latin)

Translation, please, Mr. Felner.

Hey, give me a break, alright?

I know this stuff.

Translation, Mr. Felner.

You were supposed to have this prepared

for the first class, Mr. Felner.

(crash)

Look.

I'm not a personal friend of Julius Caesar, okay?

Pick up the book, Mr. Felner.

I got your Gaelic Wars, dickhead, right here.

(speaks in Latin).

Oh, you'd like that, wouldn't you?

You're a sick fuck.

You know, Mary Beth, now that I've been tapped

to join the initiates,

I think I have a chance for the presidency.

That's wonderful.

Hi, Mary Beth.

Room for one more?

I believe we were just leaving.

(classical violin and piano music)

Hi.

You don't know me but I'm in your Latin class.

My name's Andrea Miller.

Look, I had two years of that stuff, okay,

and I thought if you had some time I could give you a hand.

What is this, a joke?

You working for your fucking Girl Scout badge or something?

No, I was just trying to help.

Wait, um, I don't need any help.

I know that shit backwards.

I just, I... I hate this place.

Then why... Why did you come here?

Look, no one asked my opinion.

My father went here and he wants me

to be an asshole fascist just like him.

Sorry.

I didn't mean to be an asshole.

I'm sleepy.

Yeah.

I think I'm gonna crash now.

How 'bout you?

No, I'm gonna try and stay up

and get through some of this.

Okay, goodnight.

Goodnight.

(rock ballad)

(knocking)

(Philo): Come in.

You don't have to come in if you don't want to.

So what's so urgent?

Your note.

This is a great piece of crystal.

You know I read about these

and did you know one time that they were actually alive

and they grew this way?

I know.

They're very healing too.

You know some people think that we can use them.

You know, and harvest their energy somehow.

I think your clock has stopped.

That clock stopped many, many years ago.

Why don't ya get it fixed?

A memory.

It's a pin screen.

You wanna see how it works?

Watch.

(Andrea giggles)

Your turn.

(Andrea giggles)

Close your eyes and push up against it gently.

(Andrea giggles)

Trust me.

Go on.

No, no, no. I wanna keep it this way.

(rock ballad continues)

(piano music)

(Andrea chuckles)

I think I... I have to go.

I'm sorry.

It's okay.

(sighs)

(door slams) (Andrea gasps)

Oh... Hi.

Where you going?

Home.

I can't take this place anymore.

I can't take any more shit from this place or my dad.

You sure about this?

Yeah.

I've never been so sure about anything in my life.

Wait a sec.

Wait a second, wait a second.

Um, look, I really appreciate you trying

to help me the other day.

That was really nice of you.

Um, but I've got to go.

Don't let 'em get to you.

(ominous music)

What the fuck?

(glass shattering)

Okay, assholes.

Come on!

Congratulations, Felner.

Tonight is your night.

What the fuck do you want?

(Felner screams)

Hi, Mary Beth!

Hey, what's happenin'?

(classical violin and piano music)

I thought she hated that shit.

Yeah, so did I.

Hey, Mary Beth, what happened to your Tex Ritter record?

What's the matter with her lately anyway?

Hell if I know.

She's been actin' weird all week.

Must have PSM.

It's PMS, Suzi.

Whatever.

(sighs) I cannot wait for the dance, you know?

And I'm gonna knock 'em dead.

(rock music)

Guaranteed..

Wanna give it a test run?

I think I can possibly spare a minute

or two in the name of science.

One appreciates how you respect one's privacy.

Wanna dance?

(mumbles)

Andrea!

(knocks)

The putt is here.

Mr. Putt to you.

Hi, Emerson!

Hi, Andrea.

Tell me when the putt is gone.

I'm sorry, no visiting tonight.

I have too much studying to do.

Really?

Look, would you wanna get together

and go out this week or somethin'?

I don't know. I haven't really found any decent friends

since I've been at this place.

Thanks a lot.

You know, present company excluded of course.

I don't know, it's weird though.

It's, it's true what they say.

This environment really changes people.

I feel myself getting boring all the time.

It's like dullness is a contagious disease around here.

Yeah, well don't let it rub off on me.

Bleh.

(Andrea laughs)

Well, I gotta get going.

See ya later?

Yeah.

If you wanna call me or anything if you need to talk.

Thank you.

Good luck with your paper.

- See you later... - Bye.

Andrea.

(Andrea chuckles)

- Is he gone? - Yes.

(Paul): Yes!

Good.

I feel bad sending him away, but I have this test.

(sighs) Don't even waste the energy.

Do you know anything about Shakespeare?

No.

Nah, I don't.

(sings)

Now, fair Hippolyta, our nuptial hour

draws on apace.

No, methinks how slow this old...

(mysterious piano music)

(gasps)

I'm sorry, I didn't mean to frighten you.

Well, you did.

What are you doing here?

I come here at night sometimes.

Water.

It's peaceful, isn't it?

You're very graceful in the water.

Maybe I was wrong.

About what?

You.

I'm dropping your class.

Why?

You know why.

You're my teacher.

You really think dropping my class

is gonna change things?

I have to get going.

Why don't I wait and walk with you?

Okay, if you want to.

(slow piano music)

Looks like you're getting a lot of studying done here.

Barry, what are you doing here?

Who the hell is this guy to you, Andrea?

You're not a student here, are you?

No, I'm not.

It's okay, he's a friend of mine.

Ha! Friend?

Is that what I am?

A friend?

Is he a friend too?

Excuse me, Dr. Philo.

What?

Dean Eisner wants to see you.

Right away.

Tell him I'll be right there.

Hey, you gonna be okay?

Yes.

Goodnight.

Barry, please don't act this way.

It's really hard for me here.

Look...

Do you want him?

Huh?

(dog barks)

Okay-

You got him, alright?

Barry.

Are you trying to ruin everything

we've ever worked for?

Chasing after an 18-year-old at your age.

What was previously merely indiscretion on your part

has escalated to the point where we risk losing everything.

I don't want her harmed.

Do you understand?

Harmed?

We're merely going to perform a simple operation on her.

The self-same operation you yourself

have performed on hundreds of other students.

I won't let you do this, Colonel.

You won't let me?

(chuckles)

You force me to remind you that I am in charge

not only of this entire Academy, but of your life

and the lives of our colleagues as well.

Bullshit.

Don't you threaten me, Eisner.

Control yourself, Dr. Philo.

Or we shall be forced to do it for you.

You are not indispensable.

What are you gonna do?

Cut off my serum dosage?

My God, you'd do that, wouldn't you?

It is an option.

You will continue to assume your normal duties

and conduct classes.

You may go.

So, this is what's become of you and me?

You may go!

If you'd like to make a call,

please hang up and try again.

(classical violin and piano music)

(gasp)

Hi, Barry.

So you didn't come to the game, huh?

I couldn't go.

I was hoping at least that you would be there.

Are you okay?

Oh yeah, I'm great.

We lost bad.

Listen, Andrea, about the other night.

I just wanted to say I'm sorry.

I acted like an idiot.

Can we just erase everything that happened that night?

No, we can't, Barry.

You've been acting like this

ever since I got this scholarship.

I'm sorry.

It's just that I love you so much.

That's not gonna solve anything, Barry.

Come on, don't I have the right

to know what's gain' on here?

There's nothing going on here.

Oh, speak of the devil.

What's the matter?

Can't you find a girl your own age?

Get off the campus.

Now.

Fuck you!

Come on, Andrea, let's get out of here.

Hey, hey.

You get your hands off me, man!

I'm sorry.

I'm so immature.

Barry!

Barry!

(motorcycle engine)

Barry!

(sad classical piano music)

(clock ticking)

(sad classical piano music continues)

(knock)

Hi, is Emerson around?

He's at the Infirmary.

What happened to him?

(suspenseful music)

This is awkward.

Extremely awkward.

No one checked with me.

His body couldn't take the procedure.

Where are their minds?

No one thought to check his records

for something like hemophilia?

We had to move ahead without you.

You've been far too reluctant these days

and endangering all of us.

My discretions kept this school alive.

I see.

Then perhaps you will use your discretion and lock up.

It's late.

(respirator)

(suspenseful music)

(Andrea screams)

Fucked up.

Don't worry about it.

Really, don't worry about it.

I think I should've washed my hands.

(unintelligible)

(creaking)

Emerson.

(creaking door)

(suspenseful music)

It can't be.

My God.

(bell ringing)

It is my sad duty to have to inform you...

of the death of one of our students.

Paul Emerson.

Owing to a medical complication that was not on his record...

Infirmary staff were unable to counter the effect

of a blood clot on the brain.

May I ask you all to bow your heads

and observe a moment of silence in his memory?

(choir singing)

Hi, Mrs. Jaffe, can I talk to Barry?

I'm sorry, dear. Barry's not home right now.

Oh.

Um, well could you just tell him to call me?

Of course.

Is there anything I can help you with?

No, it's not urgent.

Is there something wrong, dear?

No, I'm fine.

Alright, I'll tell him you called.

Okay, thanks.

It was nice talking with you.

' BYE bye. - Bye.

(suspenseful music)

Gentlemen and lady, this morning we're going

to discuss the Cavalier period.

Miss Miller, here's a question for you.

The Cavalier period.

What do we mean by it?

Um.

Mr. Felner?

It is that era in British history that is named

for the adornments of Charles I

and his conflict with Parliament.

And how is this relevant

to the study of English literature?

There was an important school of 17th century poetry

often associated with this era, sir.

Very good, John.

Very good.

You're coming along nicely.

Wait, wait, Felner.

Wait a second, wait a second.

Why, hello, Andrea Miller.

Are you okay?

Why, yes.

Why wouldn't I be okay?

Well, I thought you were leaving

and you said you hated this place.

Well, I've changed my mind.

(ominous music)

Have a nice day, Andrea.

Ooh, we are gonna knock 'em dead.

Come on, you haven't even started getting ready yet.

I will.

I just, I can't seem to get started.

Well let's move it.

We gotta get gain'.

I'll meet you there, okay?

- I promise. - You promise?

I promise.

Look you better not shine me, girl.

- I won't. - Okay.

Suzi.

(door slam)

I have to talk to you.

Of course. What about?

I wanna know what really happened to Emerson.

Who's Colonel Ettinger and what's going on in this place?

Sit down, Andrea.

I'm going to try to explain this to you.

It may be difficult to understand.

How old do you think I am, Andrea?

30?

I was born February 3, 1885.

That makes me 102 years old.

You're 102?

What's that make Dean Eisner?

Colonel Ettinger?

Yes.

(singing) I love you, I love you, yes,

and I wish you were here...

Good God!

Who is responsible for this travesty?

Oh baby,

I miss the way you smile at me, Na Na Na...

And the way you used to care, ooh, baby.

I miss the way you used to call out my name...

Oh, yes I do, now...

Barry!

Hey listen, Suzi, you gotta pretend you're my date, okay?

Or else these guys are gonna throw me out on my ass.

Oh, sure.

Come on.

It's great to see a real person.

Have you seen Andrea?

Yeah, she'll be here in a minute.

Come on, let's dance!

I can't dance, damn it.

When Ettinger was in the Cavalry,

he captured an Indian medicine man

who showed him a way to prolong life indefinitely.

But there was a catch.

Once you began, you were hooked.

You had to take it every day.

Hooked on what?

The process involved the mixing of blood

and brain tissue from a living person.

Back then, nobody asked any questions about dead Indians.

But eventually, Ettinger was dismissed.

We were developing a technique of helping

brain-damaged patients

by transmitting electromagnetic waves

to a crystal implanted in the cranium.

It would substitute for damaged brain tissue.

Are you telling me that you killed Emerson

because you developed some kind of serum?

We don't kill anyone.

This was a terrible accident, Andrea.

I, what I do, is to implant a crystal in the brain

which compensates for the loss of certain brain functions.

So that's the trade-off?

You live forever and the students get lobotomized?

It's not lobotomy, Andrea.

These people lead very, very successful lives.

More successful than if they hadn't had the implant

because there are no more neuroses,

no more agonizing over things, no more-

There's no more anything!

What you're doing is sick!

You can't replace human emotions with a crystal.

You're like vampires.

Do you think you could heat it up a little bit?

I thought you'd never ask.

(chuckles) Great.

("Body Heat" by Tease)

Barry!

Do you wanna dance?

Okay-

I don't wanna listen to this BS!

Listen to me! Listen to me.

There's a way to never age.

You can stay exactly the way you are right now.

Forever.

Why are you so afraid of dying?

I don't wanna go on year after year without you.

Come with me.

Come with me.

Join us.

No!

I don't want your forever.

I don't want it!

("Body Heat" by Tease continues)

Whoa!

- Andrea, I got your message. - Barry.

Are you okay?

Oh God, Barry, I'm so glad to see you.

I don't understand you. What's gain' on?

This place is really fucking weird, Barry.

I told you that.

I told you that the first day you got here.

Okay, I know, but listen.

We have to get some evidence, okay?

And take it to the police.

For what? Evidence for what?

I'll explain everything later.

Right now we've got to get to the infirmary.

Okay, alright.

("Body Heat" by Tease continues)

(respirator) OK, this is it.

You're gonna think this is crazy.

The faculty makes this serum from the students' brains

and they keep it down here in this wine cellar.

Jesus.

Barry, Barry, are you listening to me?

Miss Miller, breaking into school buildings

is serious business.

I think Dean Eisner would like to hear of this.

(alarm blaring)

Come on, Barry, we gotta get some proof.

No, no, come on. We gotta get out of here.

(alarm keeps ringing)

Go get the cops.

- Barry! - I'll take care of these guys.

I can't!

Just get a couple of kids. Go get the cops, alright?

Go!

Go!

Hey listen, man, I just want to say...

(rock music)

I don't care what it takes, I want them found!

(wires sparking)

(engine starts)

(rock music)

We don't like gate crashers.

Get him.

(classical violin and piano music)

(music stops)

With all this excitement, I need a shot.

Well, we shouldn't deviate from the morning routine.

However, in the circumstances... Louis?

It's a few hours early.

But I don't think it will upset the daily path.

The faculty is making this serum

by using chemicals from the students' brains.

Craziest damn thing I ever heard.

They're actually operating on them.

And when they're through with them, they're not the same!

They change!

Craziest damn thing I ever heard.

So you say there's some kind of drug ring

being operated by the faculty at Ettinger?

(phone rings)

It's a pretty wild claim, Andrea.

It's not a drug ring.

You said they're all taking drugs.

It's not really a drug, okay?

It's a serum.

They make it themselves using chemicals from the human body.

Manufacturing drugs on the premises.

You're not listening to me!

The faculty is making this serum by using chemicals

from the students' brains.

They're actually operating on them

and when they're done with them, they're... they're different.

They change.

(phone rings)

Craziest damn thing I ever heard.

(respirator)

Tell me of the boy, Louis.

I'll operate on him in the morning.

Tell the infirmary to keep him under until then.

Very good.

See to it.

Now onto the absent Miss Miller.

What do we do now?

Gentlemen, we have no option but to wait.

When we get her back...

Yes, Louis?

I want her, Doctor.

I can control her.

I give you my word.

You have absolutely no say

in this matter whatsoever, Louis.

You have almost wrecked us.

Without me, none of this would even have been possible.

Miss Miller, when she is apprehended,

will be operated upon just the same

as with every other student.

Clear?

(phone rings)

Okay-

Thanks, Chief Hillis.

I was just so terrified that no one was gonna listen to me.

It sounds so crazy.

Andrea, help yourself to a cup of coffee if you want it.

Thanks.

Come on.

Craziest damn thing I ever heard.

(suspenseful music)

Andrea, you feeling okay?

Can you tell me where the bathroom is?

Yeah, just down the hall on the left.

You can't miss it.

Thank you.

- Hi. - Hi.

(sirens)

(rock music)

(beeping)

(crash)

(sirens)

How are you feeling, Andrea?

I think she's strong enough now for surgery.

You had a nasty little accident.

You could've been killed.

Stop struggling.

You're not going anywhere.

And when you wake up, the world will be a simpler place.

Listen, your boyfriend's here.

Barry.

He seems to be pretty happy.

Wait.

The procedure's been rescheduled.

For after the morning injections.

Dean Eisner wants to perform this surgery himself.

Thank you, doctors.

Very well, Dr. Philo.

Thank you, doctors.

What are you doing?

Pay attention, Andrea.

There's a lot you don't know

and there's very little time.

I've gotta meet Eisner right away.

- Can you stand? - Yes.

- Okay. - I don't trust you.

You gotta trust me, Andrea.

Believe me, you've got to trust me.

Meet me at 7:00 tomorrow morning.

Andrea, 7:00 tomorrow morning

at the door to the faculty building.

7:00, say it.

- 7:00. - The faculty building.

The faculty building.

Tomorrow morning, okay?

Why?

There's no time to explain.

I'm late already. Now go.

Andrea, go!

Act like everybody else.

(suspenseful music)

Hello, Andrea.

Are you alright?

I'm fine.

I just had a little fall.

But they fixed me up at the infirmary.

Isn't it great?

What?

Both of us being tapped, silly.

And Barry too.

(ominous music)

Barry?

Phil and I just saw him this afternoon with Felner.

Is he alright?

Well, of course.

Aren't we all?

Of course.

Well, I have a good deal of studying to do, so I must go.

Goodnight.

Goodnight.

We cannot allow this ridiculous romantic

to endanger us further.

Exactly what I've been saying from the very beginning.

We are almost on the verge of control.

We cannot allow anything...

or anyone to stop us.

Never.

I therefore have no alternative but to propose...

(snap)

the termination of Dr. Philo.

Absolutely.

Very well.

Let us proceed.

How many times have I told you never

to bring coffee into this room?

You're absolutely, absolutely right.

Thank you.

(classical piano music)

Hurry, there's very little time.

Listen carefully.

If anything happens to me I can't help you.

Under the bust in my room there's a cassette.

Take it to the top room in the supply building.

What?

It's the transmitter room.

Transmitter room?

Replace the cassette that's playing.

I don't understand.

The music you've been hearing around the school?

Yeah?

Intonations transmitted to the students' crystals.

That's how we control them.

My tape will destroy it all.

What about the wine cellar?

Are you gonna destroy the serum?

Just get the tape, Andrea.

Why are you doing this?

I am retiring.

(clanging)

Good morning, Dr. Philo.

I do hope we didn't interrupt anything.

Where is Miss Miller, Dr. Philo?

She's gone.

How interesting.

But she has been here, hasn't she, Louis?

(suspenseful music)

(creaking)

Are you feeling unwell, Louis?

Remember Dr. Walker?

Mmhmm.

He didn't want to live any longer

and he refused to take his serum.

It was a very painful death.

I feel nothing.

30 seconds, I don't feel anything.

Yes, yes.

I don't think the dosage was strong enough.

Wait a minute, something's wrong.

You're all looking very...

Give me that.

You son of a bitch!

(smash)

(suspenseful music)

Andrea.

(crash)

Quickly to the cellar before she destroys every bottle!

Come on, come on, move!

Save the serum, you fools.

Goodbye, Dr. Philo. Have a pleasant sojourn in hell.

I'll see you there!

(smash)

(suspenseful music)

Ow!

(thud)

(smash)

Take your ha...

Get off!

Take your hands off that!

You're tapped, fucker!

(birds chirping)

(gasps) Miss Miller.

(Andrea screams)

Fortunately, I'm not dependent on the faculty supply

of serum for my survival.

I had the foresight to provide myself

with a batch of my own.

You crying little bitch.

Did you really think that after all these years

I could allow you and your love life

to interfere with my work?

Thanks to you, we have a critical shortage of serum.

Well, since you're so drowsy already,

I think we can dispense

with the administration of anesthetic.

I haven't used these instruments in years.

I do hope they're still sterile.

I'm not as skillful a surgeon as dear Louis.

Dr. Philo, of course, is well known for his bedside manner.

I am not.

I want you to see it as it happens to you.

You'll find this most instructive.

Can you see?

Now, prepare to scream.

(Andrea screams)

Oh, clear, clear, clear.

It's so dull.

Ugh!

(Andrea screams)

Stay away from me!

It's okay, I'm alright.

(Andrea sobs)

Can you walk?

Your friend Philo let me off.

You got yourself quite an education, didn't you?

Come on.

Let's go.

(suspenseful music)

Philo?

Andrea.

Oh no, please no.

I don't want you to see me like this.

What can I do?

You know, it's not so bad, Andrea.

I don't know what I was afraid of all these years.

It's...

a kind of grace.

Philo?

No, please, don't.

You've got to go now.

Please.

Come on.

Let's go.

Andrea.

Yes?

I'm not afraid anymore.

I'm free.

(suspenseful music)

(ticking clock)

(mumbles)

(mumbles)

(panting)

(alarm blaring)

Andrea, come on!

(rock music)

(panting)

(classical violin and piano music)

These guys are on our ass, man.

What the hell are we doin' here, huh?

Okay, we gotta replace the tape that's playing here.

What tape?

Shit, I don't have it.

Uh, it's what's controlling them.

These tapes?

Destroy the tapes then, man.

No, Barry, it's a cassette tape.

Wait, I got a tape.

No.

I got a cassette tape right here.

- That's not gonna work! - It's a good tape!

Come on, baby, do it for me, huh?

Ha, yeah.

(rock music)

(demonic laugh)

Have a nice day.

(Andrea laughs)

(Rock music on radio) Yeah

Kiss it

You get up in the morning and your clothes don't match your hair

They say maybe you should wash 'em

You say you don't care

They're screamin' in your ears

Till their face turns blue

You turn around and say

Kiss my butt

You've got to tell 'em

Let's get the hell out of here, okay?

Okay-

Kiss my butt

Mom said take the trash out

Dad said mow the lawn

They're knockin' on your door sayin' turn that music down

You're climbin' out the window, you've got to get away

You turn around and stand and say

(demonic laugh)

You've got to tell them

Better kiss my butt

Kiss my mother fuckin' butt

Turn around and say
