"Why all the silence,
doctor? What's going on?

" "Is it true that you've been investigating
UFOs for the last three months?

" "Professor, do you really
believe in these saucers?" "Stop.

Come on. What about it, professor?
Are there really people from outer space?

" "The doctor is not
answering any more questions.

" "Just one little statement.

" "Who's sitting, doctor?"

"Evidence that there are
people, and if you don't believe

in them, you're going to
have to give them a chance.

" [Explosion] The Invaders.

A Quinn Martin production.

Starring Roy Thinnes as
architect David Vincent.

The Invaders.
Alien beings from a dying planet.

Their destination. The Earth.
Their purpose. To make it their world.

David Vincent has seen them.
For him, it began one lost night on

a lonely country road looking
for a shortcut that he never found.

It began with a closed,
deserted diner and a man

too long without sleep
to continue his journey.

It began with the landing of
a craft from another galaxy.

Now, David Vincent knows that the invaders
are here. That they have taken human form.

Somehow he must convince a disbelieving
world that the nightmare has already begun.

The guest stars in tonight's
story. Roddy McDowall.

Lawrence Naismith. Harold Gould.
Tonight's episode, "The Experiment.

" Plot or paranoia. There was
no doubt in David Vincent's mind.

A celebrated astrophysicist,
Dr. Curtis Lindstrom, had

discovered the truth. That
alien beings were here on Earth.

In less than a week, at a meeting of his
colleagues, Dr. Lindstrom would announce it to

the world. Then perhaps David Vincent could
put down his burden. It all seemed so simple.

[Music]

Do you see these bags
get to the Covington Hotel?

Mr. Vincent? Hello. Hello, hello. You
know, I'm afraid that Dr. Lindstrom isn't

feeling too well, so he asked me if I'd
meet you and bring you out to the house.

That's very kind of you. No
trouble. At least I could do

for an old friend. Oh, should
I have Hank take your bag?

Not even take, thanks. Good.
Dr. Lindstrom's home, please.

The whole world is blind, sick, complacently
marching to its own annihilation.

Curtis, if you'll just allow
us to help you hear me.

I am no lunatic, Paul,
and I don't intend to be

locked away in a hospital
either by you or by myself.

Look, Curtis, please try to
understand. All I'm suggesting...

I know, is a few days' rest, some
tranquilizers, and peace and solitude.

All right, but at least at the
hospital under my... I am not sick,

Paul, and I don't need a
psychiatrist. How can I convince you?

Look, supposing I were to tell you within
the very near future that the Americans or

the Russians would land on another planet,
would you of necessity think I was mad?

Well, the invaders are
real, Paul. They are here

amongst us, and they intend
to wipe us out like bugs.

Curtis, by your own admission,
you're exhausted. You are overwhelmed.

I am not sick, Paul. How long do
you think you can go out this way?

Look, don't you think I
know how this sounds?

But I can prove every
word I say, and they know it.

That's why they've got to try it again.
That's why they've got to try to kill me.

And this time, they can't afford to miss.

I'm scared, Paul. I'm scared. Curtis,
let me take you to the hospital.

You'll be safe there. I'll keep personal
watch over you. Trust me, Curtis.

Please, Dad.

All right. I'll go. But
understand this. I intend to go

to that meeting on Tuesday,
and I will not be silenced.

Something wrong, Mr. Vincent? Relax,
Mr. Vincent. There's just a few more miles.

Well, Dr. Lindstrom said he
lived ten minutes from town.

We've been driving
for twenty-five...

Well, traffic's a little heavier
than usual today, I'm afraid.

No traffic. There's no traffic.
Well, you haven't been noticing.

If you forgive me for saying so, you
apparently notice very little. Really pity.

Pull over.

I said pull over.

Don't extend yourself, Mr. Vincent.
We're almost there.

You'd better hope that he doesn't
make it to the hospital in time.

All prepared, Doctor. Should I
bring Professor Lindstrom down now?

What do you want?

Doctor, I'm David Vincent.
I talked to you on the telephone yesterday.

How do I know who you are?
How did you find me?

Well, your housekeeper
told me, sir. Look, Doctor, I

know what you're going
through. I've been there myself.

Sir, they're going to try to
kill you right here, now, today.

I know they tried with
me just a few minutes ago.

Who are you?

Look, my arrival forced their answer.
They're afraid. They're afraid you're going

to share your knowledge with me. Now,
you've got to get out of here right now.

Now, here we go,
Professor. Doctor's orders.

Just a warm bath.
Most patients in...

What are you doing here?

I have permission.

You do, huh?

Yes. Well, check it if you like.

All right, mister.
It's just what I'm going to do.

You say they tried to kill you,
Mr. Vincent? Oh. What did they look like?

I have a better question.
How did they know I was coming to see you?

I don't know. I don't
know anything anymore,

except that I'm
supposed to be safe here.

No, you're not safe
here. You're not safe

anywhere as long as
someone knows where you are.

Doctor, you've got to go into
hiding until the conference.

Someone. No one can find you.

You. What do you want?

Please, Doctor.
I'll go with you if you want me to.

I cannot sit in my home alone
with my wife or something.

I've got to speak to him. His life is
in danger every second of the year.

Are you leaving or must I
have you forcibly removed?

This is a matter of life and death.

Get out of here.
Get him out of here, will you?

Doctor Lindstrom. All right, I'll leave.

But, Doctor Lindstrom, please do
what I ask you to do before it's too late.

I know them better than you.
Now, if you need me, I'll be at the hotel.

Come on, mister. Hotel Covington.

Are you all right?

I wonder if he's speaking the truth.
Must be hell for him if he is.

He says I should leave here.

Oh, no, no, no. You're safe here.

Anyway, what about the treatment
that Dr. Mailer's arranged for you?

I don't know. I don't know. I don't know.

You really expect me
to believe any of this?

I expect you to call
Dr. Lindstrom, Lieutenant.

If he confirms my story, I
expect you to give him protection.

Well, for heaven's sakes, at least call.

Have a drink.

Well, it's been a pretty
rough day, Vincent.

So, uh, I just hope that
this doesn't turn out to be...

Yes.
I'd like to speak to Dr. Lindstrom, please.

I just hope this doesn't turn out to be
some kind of a gag, because you're gonna...

Yes.

Oh, really?

No. Thank you.

You just got shot down in flames, mister.

His son checked him out of that hospital
one hour ago, and he was alive and healthy.

Had any other problems, Mr. Vincent?

Hello, operator.

Yes, sir.

I want to speak to the
hotel at, uh, Covington.

One moment, please.

Harry, please.

Yes, sir.

Good evening, Covington Hotel.

I want to speak to a Mr. David Vincent.

David Vincent?

Yes, that's right. Vincent.

David Vincent, I'll ring.

Hello, operator.

Hello, operator.

Operator.

I'm sorry, sir, there's no answer.

Do you wish to leave a message?

Yes. Yes.

Tell him Dr. Lindstrom called.

Tell him I have proof.

Documentary evidence.

Tell him it's at my... Hello?

Hello, sir, are you there?

Hello?

If you want, Mrs. Davis,
you... Show him an agent, sir.

Hello?

Has to bring you to Washington.

Something about a conference on Tuesday.

Hello, sir, are you there?

Hello?

Haven't you found me?

How?

Well, your son told us.

He's quite worried about you, doctor.

He seemed relieved
that we were taking over.

Thank God.

Thank God.

Shall we go, doctor?

We have a long drive.

By the way, doctor, you do
have the proof in that suitcase.

How did you know about the proof?

I told no one.

I told no one.

Just a minute, doctor.

Not now, please.

Well, if you just confirm what
his son has told us, we can...

Dr. Lindstrom was mentally ill.

He was paranoid, if you wish.

In his state of mind, he... He
was a very sick man, sergeant.

Excuse me.

He was murdered, Mr. Lindstrom.

I'm sorry.

Perhaps if I had been with him... Or
if I had gained his confidence sooner.

Did you hear me when I
said your father was... I heard.

Mr.
Vincent, I think that you are disturbed.

I think you are even more
disturbed than my father was.

Are you so sure your father was disturbed?

There are no doubts, no fears.

A plane blew up.

His own automobile went
over a cliff three days later.

And you're so certain...

I cannot understand your concern over
the death of a man you hardly even knew.

Now, my father could
not have been murdered.

I was the only one who knew
where he was, the only one.

And I certainly didn't tell
any... Oh, my God. Oh, no.

Oh, my God, no.

Mr. Lindstrom, who did you tell?

No, they were...

They were government agents.
They showed me their credentials. They...

What do you want?

Your father called me
just before the accident.

He left a message at my hotel saying
he had proof, documentary evidence,

that there are invaders from
another planet here on Earth.

I've got to have that proof.

It must be found before
they can destroy it.

You think I know where he hid it?

Didn't it ever occur to you
that the men who killed him...

No, no, no, they didn't
get it, because I know that.

When I went back to my
hotel after the accident,

my room had been
ransacked, turned upside down.

Now, Lloyd, I need your help.
I've got to have that proof.

Please trust me. Help me to find it.

All right.

Of course, but I... I simply can't do
anything until tomorrow morning.

I must be alone with my father now.

Certainly.

Shh.

You did very well.

I want you to stay close to him.

But these...
these headaches, ever since Maryland...

It will all be over soon, my son.

I don't care what you believe, Paul.

It's true. They're here.

They're going to take over the earth.

How long I can go on
evading them, I don't know.

But God willing, I'll stop them.

I'll stop them, Paul.

I've got to stop them.

Are you satisfied, Mr. Vincent?

Are you sure Dr. Lindstrom didn't say
anything about proof or where he hid it?

This tape represents the only
interview we had at the hospital.

It was all we had time for.

Face it, Mr. Vincent.

If your failure to find
anything here or at the

hospital hasn't convinced
you, there is no proof.

I'm sorry, doctor.
I haven't been convinced.

Where are you going?

To search the inn where
your father spent his last hours.

Wait a minute. I'll go with you.

I think it would save time if you
check his office at the university.

I'll call you later.

Lloyd, have you lost your reason to?

Why are you cooperating with that man?

Lloyd?

Lloyd?

What is it?

Doctor, may I please have the pills?

What's wrong, Lloyd? What are these for?

It's just like I get these violent
headaches, and please may I have them?

When did you start suffering
headaches this violent?

Please, doctor.

Who gave you these?
There's no prescription number on them.

Throw those pills.

Oh, Paul, I'm sorry.
I didn't mean to be rude.

It's just that with the
strain of dad's death, I've

just been getting these
headaches, but I'm alright.

Now, Lloyd, you still haven't
told me who prescribed those pills.

There's a doctor in the apartment
building where I live in New York.

Just before I came out to join
dad, but look, now don't worry.

Fine.
I'm just going out and get a breath of air.

[Music]

[Door opens]

I told you he didn't leave anything behind.

Well, could he have left a package or a
briefcase with the handyman, Gardner?

No. I run the place myself. All alone.

Say, wait a minute.
He could have mailed it.

Here's a post officer's seat
made out to him showing

that a registered
package was delivered to...

Well, to whom? Where was it delivered?

Uh, it's a New York address.

Look, miss, I've got to have that stuff.
It's important to me.

Well, so is my license.
It's against a lot of tamper with the mail.

Oh, it's alright. You
see, the man to whom

this belongs is dead.
You can't get in trouble.

I don't know. If I...

If it'll make you feel any better,
you can call his son, Lloyd Lindstrom.

He stayed with his father in Covington.
He'll vouch for me.

I never could resist a good-looking man.

Thank you.

Say, are you sure you can't stay for lunch?

No, thank you.

I'd like the number of a
Lloyd Lindstrom in Covington.

(phone ringing) Yes.

Yes, yes, this is he.

Oh.

Oh, uh, thank... thank you very much.

Oh, no, no, don't worry about it, madam.
Thank you for telling me.

Goodbye.

(suspenseful music)

I was sure sorry to read
about Dr. Lindstrom.

He was always so kind, so nice when
he stayed here at his son's apartment.

I was really looking
forward to saying hello to

him when he came to
attend that big conference.

You know what I mean?

I put the package on the
bureau when it was delivered.

It's over there.

You know, I really shouldn't be doing this.

But you've got an honest face.

Excuse me.

(suspenseful music)

(suspenseful music)

(phone ringing) Hello?

Yeah.

It's for you, Mr. Lindstrom.

Lloyd?

Where have you been?
I've been trying to reach

you for an hour. I
thought I'd missed you.

How'd you know where to find me?

Oh, well, that lady at the Pinecone Inn.
She called me after you left.

Hey, uh, did you find anything?
Is there any proof?

Oh, boy, have I found it.

Would you mind?

Okay. Don't take too long.

Lloyd, I've got enough
here to blow the lid

right off, thanks to
your father's hard work.

Well, look, I'm coming right in.

I want to be there when you
turn it over to the conference.

Well, I'm not going to
the conference, Lloyd.

I'm going to Washington and
leaving tonight on the midnight train.

Washington? Why Washington?

Well, I have an old army buddy.
He's with the CIA. His name is Jack Bryant.

I'm going to call him before I leave.

I'm going to make an appointment
for the first thing in the morning.

I know it's Sunday, but I'll
meet him at his apartment.

By noon tomorrow, every capital
in the world is going to know.

Lloyd, I want to thank you
for all the help you've given me.

I'll get in contact with you
when I get back. So long.

(Music)

I just spoke to Vincent.

He found the material in
my New York apartment.

He's taking it to Washington,
to Jack Bryant of the CIA.

No, no, he's going to
meet him in his apartment.

That's right, his apartment.

(Music)

I'm glad you're pleased, sir.

(Music)

What are you doing here?
How did you break in?

I had this pill analyzed. It's like
nothing the chemist has ever seen.

I want an explanation.

Lloyd.

Lloyd, listen, I've known you
all your life. You can trust me.

Look, you've got to tell
me what this is all about.

That phone call, the pills, the headaches.
What's behind it?

Lloyd, whatever it is, I'll stand by you.

Believe me, I...

You're going to give
me an explanation, Lloyd.

You can stand there until doomsday, but...

Will you answer me?

(Music)

My father was an enemy.

What happened to him was necessary.
It was all necessary.

(Music)

No, operator, I want New
York City, Endicott 29971.

Quickly, please, operator, a
man's life may depend on it.

(Music)

(Phone ringing)

(Phone ringing)

(Music)

(Music)

(Phone ringing) Good morning.

Good morning, David Vincent.
Did you see Mr. Bryant?

Oh, Mr. Bryant's expecting you.
If you'll come this way.

Mr. Bryant, here is Mr. Vincent.

Hi, Jack. Yeah, I'd
have been here sooner,

everybody, but the
traffic in this town is...

Jack.

Please forgive us, David.

Your friend, Mr. Bryant,
lives across the hall.

We changed the directory.

It's good to see you again, my son.

(Music)

You'll take him to Maryland?

That's right, to Maryland.

(Music)

(Music) Nice meal.

(Sigh)

Lord, I understand betraying
me, but why your father? Why?

My father was an enemy. What happened
to him was necessary, was all necessary.

What are you afraid of?
They're not going to execute you.

They're just going
to change your brain

patterns, impose their
will on yours, that's all.

Well, how did they do that?

I was the first, then you'll
be the second, and after that...

Why don't they just kill me?

Oh, well, now you see, you said that
your friend and the CIA was expecting you.

You said you had positive proof.

Well, now you will attend the conference
and say there never was any proof.

It was all just an old man's nightmare.

No, otherwise...

I'm sorry you didn't have a chance
to finish your meal, but it's time.

(Music)

Oh! Ah!

(Music)

(Music)

(Music)

(Music)

(Music)

You are a very foolish
man, Mr. Vincent.

Can't you understand
that there is no escape?

(Music) Evening, David.

You've been sleeping all day.

What?

It's not going to do any good to fight it.

If they don't break you the next time,
you know you'll... All right, so I'll die.

Now, what is that going to prove?

Get out of here. Just go tell your
friends you're wasting their time.

You're a bigger fool than he was.

Who?

Your father.

May I remind you?

Remind you that my father...

...was an enemy.

What happened to him wasn't necessary.

It was.

My father was...

Oh, no.

Is that what happens when
you begin remembering, Lloyd?

Is it?

Is that what happens?

Whose voice do you remember, Lloyd?

Whose voice do you hear, your father's?

Tell me, Lloyd.

Shut up.

No, no, no, no.

This is how they hold you, Lloyd.

This kills the pain, this
keeps away the memories.

Give me... No, Lloyd, I'm sorry.

Give me your film!

Mr. Vincent?

Shall we go?

Peacefully this time.
