In here sir,
doctor's expecting you,
Thank you,
Ah, Dr. Martin,
Yes?
You will forgive
me for not rising,
An accident?
You might call it that,
Carelessness actually,
never turn your
back on a patient,
They teach you that
at school don't they?
Yes they do, Dr. Star?
Doctor Rutherford,
Lionel Rutherford,
Oh, uh, I understood
that Dr. Star was
head of this institution,
I'm Dr. Star's associate,
Sit down, sit down,
You advertised for
a senior housemen,
I sent along my credentials
and Dr. Star asked me
to come along
for an interview,
I've read your report
but it doesn't tell me
what I need to know,
Your background qualifies
you to set up a fashionable
psychiatric practice,
Hold wealthy old
ladies by the hand
while they tell you about
their horrible husbands,
But we're a long
way from Harley Street,
out here,
This is an asylum
of the incurably insane,
You want to know the
most useful thing here?
This, the control system
for the door upstairs,
no keys just, uh,
an electrical device,
The door can't be
opened from either side,
unless I press that button,
If you're trying to warn me
that some of the inmates
are potentially dangerous
you needn't worry,
I've dealt with disturbed
patients during my training,
By what methods?
Kindness,
understanding, insight,
Exactly my ways,
twenty years ago,
Now I'm not so sure,
Those poor devils up
there can't be cured,
they can only be confined
and kept from
being dangerous,
Is that
Dr. Star's outlook too?
Doctor Star is upstairs now,
What, with a patient?
Doctor Star is a patient,
Doctor Star attacked
me a few days ago,
suddenly, without warning,
That's how I injured my leg,
Yes,
working with
the mentally disturbed
can lead to a breakdown,
The nurse and orderly
managed to transfer
Dr. Star upstairs
with the other patients,
But I can't go there,
The orderly giYes me reports,
He says the doctor is
perfectly rationale now
except for one thing,
A new personality
seems to have taken over
with its own name
and its own life story,
Hysterical two xxxx,
Meaningless label
don't you think?
It describes
something that exists,
from time to time
a man disappears
and is discovered much later
Living in a different town,
under a different name,
following a
different occupation
because something
happened in his earlier life
that made it
completely intolerable,
Do you believe you could
recognize such a case?
I'm certain of it,
Very well,
Well call it a test,
There are several
Patients upstairs
With the sort of
Condition you described,
Go up there,
Talk to them,
If you can recognize
Who is, or was Dr. Star,
then ILL consider you
qualified for the position,
I will recognize him,
Him?
How do you know
the doctor's a man?
Reynolds,
Yes doctor?
Reynolds,
Yes.
I am sending a
young man upstairs,
Martin,
Dr. Martin,
Now listen to me carefully,
Doctor Martin,
I'm Max Reynolds, the orderly,
I'm pleased to meet you,
Come this way,
It keeps out the draft
as Dr. Star used to say,
You know why I'm here?
Doctor Rutherford
gave me full instructions,
What can you tell
me about the doctor?
Who, Rutherford?
Star,
Nothing,
You're to be given full
cooperation but no clues,
Are all these rooms occupied?
Yes, we keep them
locked, of course,
a security measure,
And this one is my office,
Are the patients free
to move around at all?
They're not too badly off,
Youll see for yourself,
first patient?
Um hum,
Name?
She calls herself Bonnie,
E, Star,
That's a question
for you to decide,
Look Bonnie?
Bonnie, come along,
There's a
Dr. Martin to see you,
Leave me alone,
I was hoping
I could talk to you,
Talk?
That's all you
people ever do is talk,
Nobody listens,
I listen too,
You wouldn't believe me,
Perhaps not but
I am willing to listen,
Oh, well,
if it makes any difference,
I hope to God we get
to the airport on time.
for the last time Walter,
there's nothing
to worry about,
Did it arrive?
Yes it's here,
they finished installing
it about an hour ago,
We have nothing
to worry about.
That's easy enough
for you to say Bonnie
but supposing
something goes wrong,
It can't go wrong,
not if you follow the plan,
ILL follow it,
if only I could see you first,
Youll see me soon enough,
Ill be waiting
for you once it's over,
Ill ring you.
Walter,
You're home early,
I, uh, didn't get
in to town today,
But you did get
into the brandy,
This happens to
be my first drink,
Not you're last I'm sure,
Can I fix you one?
Yes, please,
How did your class go?
It's not a class,
Professor Kalanga
is a spiritual leader,
Professor, back in Africa
he'd be just
another witch doctor,
What do you know about it?
Don't forget
I lived there for years,
After all, my father was...
Governor General
of the colony,
It's a good thing he can't
see his daughter now,
The poor old boy
would turn in his grave,
taking voodoo lessons
from a black charlatan,
It is not voodoo,
There are natural forces
which are stronger than,
than life or death,
forces which modern
civilized man has forgotten,
I wish you would forget
all this mumbo jumbo,
What's that?
It's called Anawanga,
I think it's revolting,
It's not
supposed to be pretty,
The serpent is a
symbol of the life force,
And the teeth
Are to protect
one from evil,
There's no evil in your life,
Oh but there is,
What do you mean?
Bonnie,
That's all over and done with,
I swear it,
Only last month
you came and
asked me for a divorce,
I haven't seen her since,
you have my word on that,
I'm glad you haven't
because I told you then
and I'm telling you now,
there won't be any divorce,
Oh I know you Walter,
you're a weak, vain,
selfish opportunist,
You're content to
live off my money,
But you are mine
and I will never let you go,
never,
Now you do understand
that, don't you?
Perfectly,
Darling,
I've got a present for you,
Oh, what is it?
Youll see,
Come along with me,
I don't see anything,
Downstairs,
In the basement?
After you,
careful now, mind the steps,
Well, what is it?
Oh, darling,
it's a freezer,
Do you like it?
Oh you know
I've always wanted one,
What a lovely surprise,
I have another one for you,
What is it?
This!
Rest in pieces,
Yes?
It's finished.
Good, are you all right?
Yeah, how soon
can you get here?
I'm just packing,
I should be there
within the hour,
Ill be ready,
One more thing Walter,
well have to take her along.
Why, there's no need for that,
No one's going to
check up when we're away.
It will be safer if
there's nothing left behind,
They may still suspect
but theyll have no proof,
Well dispose of the evidence
on the way to the airport,
Look we can't talk
about it on the phone,
well talk when you're here,
But for God's sake
don't let anyone see you,
Ill bring my car
around to the back,
Now keep the
kitchen door unlocked
so I won't have to knock,
All right but hurry,
the sooner we're
out of here the better,
Ill be right there.
Ill be waiting,
Walter?
Walter?
Walter?
Walter?
They found me lying
there the next morning,
They said I'd
strangled Walter,
I tried to tell
them about Ruth
and the hand,
but it was gone,
everything was gone,
But the hand was on my face,
I chopped,
and chopped,
and chopped at it,
Now do you believe me?
No?
Paranoid psychosis,
How did she
come to the asylum?
She could of come as a doctor,
And the wife?
Youll learn the
real case histories
when you've made your choice,
That's the service
lift from the kitchen,
The next patient?
His name is Bruno,
Bruno,
this is Dr. Martin,
What are you making?
Whatever you like,
Could it be a surgical gown?
I can make whatever you wish,
It could be
a surgical gown
or a shroud,
I'm a tailor,
Doctors can sew, stitch,
Always been a tailor,
Always,
Oh Mr. Stebbins, good evening,
It's the first of the month,
the rent is due,
Mr. Stebbins,
I got a wonderful idea,
Have you got the rent?
Every month you come here
and always you are
wearing the same suit,
There's nothing
wrong with my suit?
It gives me good wear,
Ah, wear, yes,
but style, no,
Now listen,
for one month's rent
I could make for
you such a suit,
I don't need a suit,
and if I did I wouldn't
get it from you,
I haven't got it,
Now see here,
No, no, no,
you, you see here
Mr. Stebbins,
You see this shop,
people, people, fine people
used to come here
for fine tailoring,
Now a little pressing,
a little mending,
that's all I get,
I will pay your rent
but you must give
me a little more time,
ILL tell you what,
today's Monday, right?
ILL be back here
on Saturday morning,
Saturday morning?
Bright and early
and if you
haven't got the rent,
you can start packing,
No tricks now,
No tricks?
You're supper, it's ready,
I'm not hungry,
Something's wrong?
Not something
Anna, everything,
Mr. Stebbins was here,
he's giving us one week,
A man works hard all his life
and then in one week,
Where can we go?
Good evening,
is the proprietor in?
I am the proprietor,
Go have your supper,
Now what can
I do for you Mr. uh?
Smith,
Am I correct in assuming
that you can
tailor a garment
from any material
of my own selection?
You want I should
make you a suit?
Exactly,
I have a fine
stock of woolens here,
That will not be necessary,
I brought my own material,
I see,
you will be wanting
something special,
Correct,
something very special,
There's enough here
for a suit I believe,
Unusual,
Special,
It will be difficult
to work from such a fabric
but I can promise you a suit,
Now if you will
just slip off my coat
so I can make measure,
The suit is not for me,
it is for my son,
Ah, yes,
when will he
come in for a fitting?
It's to be a surprise,
Oh, a present,
You might call it that,
I have written down
all the measurements,
And made various
diagrams of the style,
Expensive,
Then Youll have to
charge me accordingly,
Shall we say
two hundred pounds?
Two hundred?
I will begin immediately,
No, this schedule,
It is of the
greatest importance
that you work on the suit
only during the
hours listed here,
But these times,
they're all past midnight,
I happen to
believe in astrology,
The stars?
I take it you
are not a believer?
No matter,
all that concerns you
is following these
instructions to the letter,
There must be no
mistake, is that clear?
No mistake,
Everything will
be as you wish,
I swear,
Youll find my address
written on top
of the first sheet,
When may I have delivery?
Um, today is Monday, uh,
and if I start tonight,
here, so,
I can bring you
the suit on Friday,
Excellent,
I shall expect you
the moment it is finished,
Remember, my instructions,
Oh I promise,
Goodnight,
Bruno, who was that man?
A customer,
he ordered a suit,
two hundred
pounds he will pay,
Bruno I'm afraid,
there is something
not right in all this,
Something that
will make you trouble,
I must do it,
Ow!
What is it?
The instructions said
to work to five o'clock only,
I tried to work
a little longer,
It is finished?
Hmm,
I'm the one who's finished,
four nights, nothing but work
from midnight until
just before dawn,
Oh, now is done,
May I see it?
Um,
It is strange,
You're going to press it?
No, no, Mr. Smith
doesn't want it pressed,
Then what will you do?
Deliver it, just as
he said, right now,
At last,
Did you bring it?
Oh good,
Come in, come in,
This way,
Here, now there
are two steps down,
In here,
my study,
The suit is completed?
Oh yes,
it was difficult
working with such material
and at night only,
But you followed
the instructions?
Just as you ordered,
Splendid,
You have no idea
how much this means to me
and to my son,
Ah, yes, you're son,
where is he?
Never mind, now
if I may see the suit?
Uh,
Oh yes, of course, your fee,
Just send me your account,
and ILL take care of it,
I must have the money first,
I have bills to pay,
You wouldn't
understand, you're rich,
On the contrary,
I understand
the situation only too well,
It so happens at the moment
I'm in the same financial
position as yourself,
You?
Don't misunderstand,
in a very short while
I shall be in funds again,
Just as soon
as my son returns,
You're diamond,
This?
It's a fake,
It was real once
but I had to dispose of it
in order to continue my work,
my studies,
this book now,
It's very old very rare,
the only one of its
kind left in the world,
It cost me my fortune,
You gave all your
money for a book?
To the penny,
but I needed it
because of my son,
I sold everything to buy it,
You're lying,
See for yourself,
there is nothing left,
What is in that room?
That room is empty too,
There is nothing in
there I tell you, please,
So that's it,
you're a murderer,
No, I'm no murderer,
he died a natural death,
I knew a long time ago
that it was inevitable,
Can't you see,
this is my son?
Your son?
He was the one
I was working for,
planning for,
The book told me what to do,
that's why I had
you make the suit,
it is for him,
give it me,
No, first the money,
You can't stop me now,
No one can stop me now,
Give me that suit,
You sold the suit?
No,
Mr. Stebbins phoned
just after you left,
He said to remind you
he was coming for
his rent in the morning,
I told him it was all right,
you were collecting money
from a customer tonight,
You told him,
Oh, Anna I asked
you not to say
a word about this to anyone,
Burn, burn, burn it,
put it in the
stove and burn it,
forget about the suit,
forget I ever made the suit,
forget about Mr. Smith,
forget everything,
Burn it,
A fortune he said,
No fire?
I don't know
what we will do now
but when people
see how you look,
perhaps they will come in,
I told you to burn the suit,
I put it on Otto,
Otto?
I made a name for him,
I talk to him
often when I am alone,
Anna please, burn the suit,
I thought...
No one must
ever know it existed,
Mr. Smith knows,
Mr. Smith is dead,
Dead?
I killed him,
It was an accident
but no one will believe that,
What is that book?
Mr. Smith had it,
It is a book of magic,
There is a spell
for making the suit,
The book too must be burned,
No,
What do you mean?
Don't you see?
If you have the book you
can show it to the police,
tell them what happened,
Then they will believe
you speak the truth,
What do you know
from the police?
Bruno please, for my sake,
tell them what happened,
No,
Then I tell them,
We cannot live with
murder on our souls,
Anna, no, no,
Oh, help, help,
Anna no,
Let go of me Bruno!
No Anna,
Otto, ahh!
You must find him,
Somewhere in the city,
he is alive,
I tell you he is alive,
How did it happen?
You know I can't
tell you, not yet,
Not until I've made my choice,
Doctor Rutherford's orders,
All right, who's next?
A strange case,
a very strange case,
her name is Barbara,
How good of you to come,
You're the lawyer, aren't you?
No, I'm sorry, I'm afraid not,
I asked to see a lawyer,
I told you to send for one,
This is Dr. Martin,
Another doctor,
but I'm not ill,
you can see that,
A good lawyer would know
that it wasn't my fault,
I haven't accused
you of anything,
All doctors are alike,
How can you be
so sure about that?
I happen to know a great deal
about the medical profession,
That's interesting,
did you study
medicine yourself?
Oh, you ask
too many questions,
That's only because
I want to help you,
Then get me out of here,
It wasn't my fault,
you've got to understand that,
I had nothing to do with it,
It was, it was Lucy,
Tell me about it,
All right,
All right,
How do you feel Barbara?
You look marvelous,
Oh I feel fine,
George if you only
knew how wonderful it is
to be coming home again,
Listen, I hope you're going
to be very very happy,
Of course I will,
don't worry,
it's not going to
be like the last time,
That's all over with now,
I'm sure of it,
Good,
We're nearly there now,
What's the matter?
I don't know,
I could swear I saw someone
looking out of the window,
Oh?
I thought for a
moment it might be Lucy,
Now remember what you
promised in the hospital,
You're not to
mention her name again,
Yes I know, I'm sorry,
but there is someone
inside, isn't there?
Yes,
Who is it?
Youll soon see,
Who is it?
Ah, nurse Higgins,
this is my sister, Barbara,
Hello, I've heard
so much about you,
Nurse, I don't need a nurse,
Now it's only temporary
until you get
settled in again,
The doctor suggested it,
Here, ILL take that sir,
Shall we go upstairs now?
Upstairs?
You can pop right into bed,
Bed?
In the middle
of the afternoon?
Well you've had
quite a long trip,
you must rest,
But I'm not in
the least bit tired,
Now Barbara you
promised me, remember?
You're to follow the
doctor's instructions,
This is my home,
Our home,
and I hope that well
be together here always,
You don't want to go
back into hospital do you?
No, you wouldn't,
Well I sincerely hope
it won't be necessary,
Come along dear,
Well aren't you
going to come up?
Later,
I still think it's ridiculous
going to bed at this hour,
The doctor says
you need a nap
every day before tea
to keep your strength up,
But ILL never sleep,
Here, you're to drink this,
Well what is it?
Only a sedative dear,
to calm your nerves,
I am calm, perfectly calm,
If I could just
have one of my pills,
Now we're not to have
any more of those things,
That's better, now in we go,
All comfy?
Try to sleep now
and ILL look in on
you a little later on,
Tonight, after dinner
well have a nice chat,
Youll be staying
here in the evenings too?
Well of course I will,
and your brother's
given me the room
right next to yours,
Hello?
Oh yes, would you
hold on a minute please?
Uh, Nurse Higgins,
it's for you,
Thank you,
Hello, yes?
Yes speaking,
Oh no, where did you say?
Charring Cross Hospital,
no danger?
She's seventy-eight,
ILL come at once,
as soon as I can,
Nurse Higgins
is anything a matter?
It's my mother,
I'm afraid she's
had an accident,
I must go to her,
Well what about my sister?
I put her to
bed under sedation,
shell sleep for hours,
Well now look there's
a train in twenty minutes,
Ill ride you to the station,
Oh, thank you,
Ill get my bag,
Hello love,
Lucy,
How did you get in here?
It wasn't easy,
I've been waiting
ever since you came home,
Where?
In the garage,
that's where I phoned in from,
Phoned?
I had to get them
out of the house,
I knew he'd be
gentlemen enough
to drive her to the station,
Well, aren't you
glad to see me?
Well of course I am,
what if he finds you here?
I know, that's why
we have to work quickly,
I don't understand,
Obviously,
What's the matter?
Nothing, I just
feel a little faint,
Have you been taking
those pills again?
No, no that's all over with,
He doesn't trust you does he?
Shutting you up like
this in a darkened room,
bringing in a nurse,
She's not your nurse you know,
she's your guard,
your keeper,
But George wouldn't
do a thing like that,
Oh wouldn't he?
Who owns this house?
Why I do,
When father died
he let everything to me,
And if something
happened to you?
Suppose George has
you put away for good?
Oh he wouldn't,
oh he couldn't,
All he has to do
is to tell the doctors
that you are too
difficult to control at home,
That nurse will back him up,
But you know that's not true,
And what good does that do?
George won't listen to me,
He doesn't even
like you to see me,
that's so, isn't it, isn't it?
What am I going to do?
I've got to get
you away from here
and we haven't got much time,
But if I stay with you,
he'll find me,
Where could we go?
I thought of that,
we could take
a room somewhere,
Do you have any money?
No, but you do,
a hundred pounds
you put away for a new dress,
How did you know that?
You told me,
don't you remember?
ILL get it,
No hurry, we can't go now,
not in broad daylight,
somebody's bound to notice,
Besides well need a car,
tonight, when
George is asleep,
Now don't you worry,
just leave everything to me,
Barbara?
Hello?
Yes Nurse Higgins,
she wasn't?
That's very strange,
but you will be back tonight?
Good,
Now in the day train
getting in at ten o'clock,
take a taxi from the station
and ILL reimburse you,
Splendid, well
I expect you then,
Goodbye,
Come on love, wake up,
Hurry up, get dressed,
its time to go,
Not so loud, he'll here you,
George?
I've got some of the
sedative they had for you,
put it in his tea,
Oh, will he sleep?
He didn't even feel it
when I took his car keys,
Nurse Higgins?
Oh by the time she
gets here well be gone,
Come on now, there,
you go and get dressed,
Are you okay love?
Yes, yes, just
a touch of nerves,
I guess I'm not used
to so much excitement,
Oh, I love excitement,
Here we are,
just the thing,
What do you want with those?
To cut the phone cord silly,
We don't want
old Miss Higgins
giving the alarm, now do we?
You do think of everything,
Oh, I try to,
Now you hurry and get dressed
and Ill go down
the hall and, uh...
Remember, I expect to find
you dressed when I get back,
I say...
What?
It is a lark, isn't it?
Just like old times,
What are you doing?
Give them to me,
I can't,
I need them,
Give them to me,
Please Lucy, one more,
I am not going to
watch you ruin yourself,
One more Lucy, then I promise,
I thought you said
you weren't taking them,
I can't help it,
You mean, you
don't want to help it,
You always had a choice,
George or the pills,
me or the pills
and the pills always win
because deep down in side
you hate George,
you hate me,
No, no Lucy,
you're my best friend,
These are your friends,
your only friends,
Oh I'm good enough for you
when you're in trouble,
but I've never been
good enough for George,
or anyone else you know,
And now I,
I can't even win out
to your hand full of these,
No,
What I have done for you today
Youll never know,
and it isn't enough,
I'm getting out, now!
No Lucy,
Do you want these?
Here, take them,
Lucy,
Lucy?
Lucy?
Lucy?
Lucy, come back,
Miss Barbara, what
are you doing out of bed?
I've got to go out,
At this time of night?
Yes, you don't
understand, it's Lucy,
Lucy?
Yes, she just left,
I heard the car pull away,
That was the cab I came in,
There's no one out here,
no one,
Oh,
Well then she's still here,
Where's your brother?
In the study I suppose,
George?
George?
Barbara?
Barbara?
There Barbara,
now you're free,
free of all of them,
Now do you understand
why I must see a lawyer?
They said I killed them,
They say my fingerprints
are on the shears,
It was Lucy,
Lucy who did it,
What does Lucy have
to say about that?
Why don't you
ask her yourself?
She's here with us now,
Where?
There she is,
don't you see her?
Don't you see her?
Don't you see here?
Was there a George and
a Miss Higgins, murdered?
There may have been,
No Lucy?
There may not have
even been a Barbara,
You mean she
might be Dr. Star?
No, I don't think so,
I don't think
I've met Dr. Star yet,
Maybe there is no such person,
Perhaps your Dr. Rutherford
is just playing a game,
Doctor Rutherford
never plays games,
How many more are
there for me to see?
Just one,
And then the choice?
Then the choice,
Tell me about this one,
He calls himself Byron,
Dr. Byron,
Byron?
Gentlemen?
I brought
Dr. Martin to see you,
It's always a pleasure
to meet a colleague,
You're a doctor?
Indeed I am sir,
Physician, neurosurgeon
and orthopedic specialist
and lately I found
still another vocation,
even more fascinating,
Do you care to see
some of my recent work?
Yes, I'd be happy to,
If you'd be good
enough to step over here,
Hum, who are the subjects?
former colleagues of mine,
of course I had to model
their faces from memory,
Quite a hobby,
Oh it's more than a hobby,
much more,
These are not
ordinary figures,
The eyes were made to see,
Inside each skull is a
perfectly proportioned brain,
perfectly capable
of functioning,
You talk about them
as though they were alive,
Hum, that's the final step,
from playthings to creations,
living creations,
I know it sounds
a bit, uh, ha, ha,
but you see
the Bible tells us
that the Lord God
formed the man
from the dust of the ground
and he breathes
into his nostrils
the breathe of life,
thus the man became
a living creature,
Do you believe that doctor?
I'm afraid I put
my belief in science,
And so do I,
If I could breathe my, uh,
consciousness into
one of these figures,
that figure will come alive,
Do you want to see
what I'm working on now?
Call it my, my final creation,
That's your face,
Um hum, my face
and inside my body,
correct to
the smallest detail,
I can turn it on
and Youll say, oh yes,
it operates on batteries,
but how do you know
what it is inside?
What is it?
It's me, I mean not yet but,
it will be,
Through the power of
concentration I shall,
I shall will my
mind to enter its body
and it will be me,
Rutherford wouldn't
believe I could do it,
He locked me up
but he let me
keep my, my dolls,
Occupational
therapy he called it,
Youll soon find
out what they are,
That's right, go,
Run away and
hide from the truth
like that idiot downstairs,
But it won't do
any good you know,
you can tell
Rutherford for me,
Tell him the truth
will find him out!
Tell him!
Well, which is it?
Would you mind
stepping into your office
and telling the doctor that
I'm ready to come down?
No need,
Ill use the intercom,
What do you want
me to tell him?
Just tell him
I'm coming to see him,
Doctor Martin is
ready to come down sir,
There you are,
Thank you for your help,
Don't mention it,
it was a pleasure,
And doctor,
good luck,
So, you've seen the patients,
Well, what do you think?
I think it's a disgrace,
This institution,
the way it's run,
everything about it,
Those patients,
locked away by themselves,
Lost in their own fantasies
and no attempt made
to bring them back to reality,
You forget, they're incurable,
Take a man like Byron,
you think you could
rid him of his delusions,
I'd be willing to try,
Then you'd fail,
Byron is hopelessly insane,
There's only way to remove
Byron's hallucinations,
With this,
free frontal lobotomy?
Exactly,
Do you believe that surgery
is a substitute
for psychiatry?
It's effective,
Yes it's effective,
in turning intelligent
human beings into vegetables,
And now, your choice,
You'd still give me the job
in spite of our differences?
If you chose correctly,
You might do some good here,
So?
Your choice?
Your tea doctor,
Thank you nurse,
Milk and sugar?
Nothing,
I'm going back to London,
You won't choose?
No,
I'm disappointed
in you Martin,
Why, because I refuse
to play games with you?
Because you admit defeat,
Defeat?
You can't identify Dr. Star,
that's why you're
leaving, isn't it?
Because you failed the test,
The test,
I'm not a schoolboy,
I'm a qualified doctor,
Obviously not
qualified to practice here,
These patients are badly
in need of proper therapy,
You won't help them,
you won't even let
them help themselves,
On the contrary,
I give them
every opportunity
to work out their fantasies,
Perhaps wrongly,
Take Byron for example,
His work is remarkable,
Also dangerous,
Dangerous?
To himself,
perhaps it's time
I put an end to it,
destroyed his figures,
That may make him even worse,
Or cure him,
Yes I think the time has come
to take Byron's
toys away from him,
Help!
Help!
Byron?
I was in my office,
when he cried out,
By the time I got to
his room it was too late,
He's dead?
All of his body was crushed,
So that's the
end of Byron Star,
You recognized him then, sir?
It was obvious,
Where are you going?
To call the police,
Is there a phone
in your office?
Don't go in there sir,
No,
He's been strangled,
Two days ago,
There was no opportunity
to dispose of it,
Dispose of it, who is he?
His name was Max Reynolds,
The orderly?
Yes,
I'm afraid
your guess was wrong,
I am Dr. Star,
Ah, good afternoon,
Good afternoon,
I've come about
the appointment,
Yes, I was expecting you,
do come in,
Thank you,
Better keep the door closed
and keep out the drafts
as Dr. Star used to say,
