"." "SHE KILLED IN ECSTASY" "I long for you, my Love." "You have left me, my only Love." "It was too short, our time together." "Two years." "It went so fast." "And then, suddenly, misfortune befell us." "All of a sudden." "I will never forget the time before." "You gave me more than I ever expected from my life." "How could I ever forget you?" "Your Love." "Your caresses." "You are inside me, my Love." "You will live on in me." "And nothing will ever be able to destroy your image." "Are you happy?" "Yes." "Terribly happy." "It will take about a week until I get the decision of the medical congress." "I can imagine what those narrow-minded doctors will think of my work." "But there is no way for them to refuse it." "They will have to support this effort... my plans." "They will have to settle in its favour." "Don't be too effusive." "We don't have the work yet." "Come, darling, I want to show you something." "That is the final result of my research." "In the beginning I made experiments with animals... until the last stage, in which I used human embryos." "The mixture of human and animal hormones... injecting the last ones in the earliest stage of development... causes the revolutionary changes." "You get organisms capable of surviving." "Due to the mixture of hormones, those organisms are far more resistant against... proneness to cancer, cardiac insufficiency, general physical and mental deterioration." "Our love was a powerful and immensely profound experience." "Our bodies melted together to become one... our spirits became one." "Everything was united in us... love, passion and hope." "The hope for your future... a future that was in a few persons' hands... who had to decide on the further development of your research... and on the life of both of us." "Those persons had the power to destroy you... or to raise you to become a recognized scientist." "Dr. Johnson." "Please come closer." "Your operations on embryos are inhuman." "What does it mean, inhuman?" "More than that, they are criminal." "Your intention of changing the human organism... by mixing animal and human hormones in the embryonic stage... is what we call a crime." "In this matter, I want to go even further than my colleague Donen." "I don't deny that I followed your report with great interest... but I say that it is a violation of the Hippocratic oath." "There can only be one response, dear colleagues." "We will request that the medical association... ban Dr. Johnson from his occupation." "Don't you understand?" "This is not about the Hippocratic oath." "It is about humanity." "About a better existence." "And that is neither a criminal act, nor a violation." "I am right." "You are guilty, not me." "Dr. Johnson, I have here reports on your operations on embryos... with all the details." "You have stolen from human beings in embryonic stage the chance of development." "I call that criminal and blasphemous." "You say blasphemous?" "In what world are you living?" "There can be only one aim:" "To help human beings." "Without moral terms." "Dr. Johnson... for the moment, this group of doctors forbids you to continue your experiments." "Why do you believe in it?" "Have you already realized it?" "You know, I have carried out experiments on human beings." "And what was the result?" "A convincing one." "That's enough." "Take your papers." "It would be best if you burned them." "Dr. Johnson... you have heard our decision." "Stop your experiments." "What happened?" "Darling." "Darling." "They came and destroyed everything." "I wanted to stop them, but... they were like insane." "Who was it?" "I...." "I don't know." "Many men." "They must hate you terribly." "They called your name." "They wanted to kill you." "You are hurt." "Just a splinter of glass." "It is nothing." "Come, darling." "Don't worry about me." "You have to think of yourself." "You are a criminal, Dr. Johnson." "Your actions are blasphemous." "Quack." "Johnson, you are a criminal." "Expelled." "You should be killed." "You are an animal, Johnson." "An animal." "You are expelled forever." "For eternity." "No, no, no, no." "Expelled." "An animal." "Forever." "An animal." "Expelled." "Forever." "An animal." "Yes." "I am an animal." "Dr. Houston, please." "Mrs. Johnson." "My husband is going berserk." "I believe he is going insane." "Please, can you come?" "But if you speak to him...." "One word from you...." "I just want to...." "I just want to help." "I just want to help you." "No!" "I am no criminal!" "I left town with him." "We went to a small island where we owned a house." "It was a deserted island." "Lonely as above the clouds." "A house born in a dream." "Like a labyrinth, where the steps reverberate." "Where the words rebound and return." "Time and again." "No." "Darling." "What do you want?" "I know it." "I can make it." "It is no crime." "No crime...." "As doctors and humanists we have to absolutely denounce those... who violate the ethical principles... of human laws." "Time and again we hear... that fanatical doctors, under the guise of scientific experiments... don't shrink from performing criminal acts." "We have to stop such dreamers." "Because how can we expect humanity to trust us... when within our lines we have quacks, unscrupulous criminals... and we do nothing to find them and to ban them from our midst." "Science has reached a point... that offers too many possibilities to such unscrupulous persons." "We are forced... to defend ourselves with all the power we've got." "Otherwise we will dig our own grave." "We cannot close our eyes in front of the misuse... of the word "cure."" "The countless victims of such machinations accuse us... and we must not ignore the accusations." "We are forced... to try all that is possible to save those persons... from dubious experiments... and that is the oath that all of us have sworn once." "I want to thank our colleague, Prof. Walker, for his passionate and honest words." "There is no need to go into the details of the case Prof. Walker was referring to." "I'm speaking of Dr. Johnson." "We all know about his disgraceful actions." "Please believe me, Dr. Johnson will never practise again." "At our request, the medical association has decided on his expulsion for life." "What do you want?" "I didn't mean to frighten you." "Remember me?" "I was with you after your husband's lab was destroyed." "Has something else happened?" "How dare you ask?" "If you want to help us, go find the men who destroyed my husband's life." "Oh, who knows, maybe I'll do that." "It was proved conclusively which crimes have been committed by Dr. Johnson." "In case further proof is requested... we will provide it." "And now to the legal aspect of the case." "I can only say, like Prof. Walker did before... that I feel the profoundest disgust... and revulsion, when I hear... what crimes this man has committed in the name of science." "Pardon me." "I have a very silly question." "Is smoking allowed here?" "No, it is not." "Thank you, Dr. Houston." "...because who has any doubts about the riskiness of such experiments." "I beg your pardon." "How do you know my name?" "Have we already met?" "No." "But what the heck?" "I know who you are." "...to stop the devilish deeds of an insane doctor." "No, this Johnson is no doctor." "You are a criminal, Dr. Johnson." "You commit blasphemy." "Quack." "You are a criminal, Dr. Johnson." "Expelled." "You should be killed." "You are an animal, Johnson." "Expelled." "An animal." "Forever." "An animal." "Expelled." "Darling." "Do you hear me, darling?" "I just want to help humanity." "Why don't you allow me to help?" "Why?" "Can you understand me?" "Do you hear me?" "I just want to help you." "I love you." "Oh, God." "Why do they treat me like a criminal?" "I can't go on anymore." "Why do they treat me like a criminal?" "I can't go on anymore." "I am right." "Believe me, I just want to help." "Just help." "Johnson, that's blasphemy." "The monstrous products of hell." "You are insane, Johnson." "Insane." "Where are you?" "No!" "No!" "I'm searching for you, my love." "And if only one breath of you could caress me." "A look from your eyes." "You left me without any word." "How shall I live without you?" "Tell me." "I know I cannot without having taken revenge on your murderers." "My revenge will be dreadful." "Only death can be the price for destroying both our lives." "The world we live in nowadays... is determined by only one thing.:" "money." "Every day, humans become more corrupt... more prone to crime." "If we don't fight it by all available means... we will head inexorably towards chaos." "Of course, one should pin his hopes... on youth." "But how is this youth made?" "How does it behave?" "Does it learn from the mistakes made by its parents?" "Sure, one thing is obvious." "Today's youth is not as militant." "Or let's say, you cannot force it into a schema." "It doesn't want to receive orders and execute them unquestioningly." "It claims to search for a better world." "Well, until now it looks like that." "There are protests against war, there are demonstrations, riots... all that stuff which is mentioned every day in the papers." "Of course we must not forget about the drugs." "The drugs distort their reality." "They convey an image which is untrue and which does not correspond to reality." "So it is inevitable that the youngster, who takes drugs, denies the social order." "He becomes amoral." "But not immoral." "His behaviour simply does not match the social order he has to grow into." "Therefore arises the question, if we, the adults, shouldn't rethink and find new ways." "Thank you, Prof. Walker." "Thank you." "Oh, my pleasure." "Goodbye." "I beg your pardon." "Do we know each other?" "No, not as far I know." "Buones Aires?" "No." "Montevideo?" "No." "Bogota?" "I'm sorry." "Antofagasta?" "No." "May I sit down?" "Please." "May I present myself:" "I am Prof. Walker." "I know." "I know you." "How nice." "Why didn't you say so?" "Maybe I enjoy your guessing game." "Would you like to join me for a drink?" "As you like." "Waiter." "Don't bother." "The waiter has gone into a private room, together with a girl." "How nice." "Well, I suggest we get a bottle... and some glasses and look for a quiet little place." "Why do you want to stay?" "Don't you have an apartment?" "No, I stay in a hotel." "Which hotel?" "Hotel Numet." "Not bad." "Would you like to have a drink with me there?" "That depends on how much you pay." "I'm sure we will find an agreement." "Believe me, I am no miser." "Are you disappointed that I want to be paid?" "On the contrary." "Why?" "Well, it makes it easier." "Let's go." "Yes, we have to go, otherwise you won't get your money." "Please wait here for a moment." "I like it." "It is quiet and cosy." "Am I right?" "That's why I stay here." "Please stop that." "You're making me nervous." "I cannot stand that." "Take your clothes off." "Go on, take your clothes off." "Don't you want to help me?" "Now come here." "Wait." "You have to be mean to me." "You have to call me dreadful names." "I need that." "Yes, because you are impotent." "You pig." "Yes." "You are a rat." "Yes." "I hate you." "Yes." "Go on." "You perverted pig." "Yes." "Thank you." "I'll beat you to death." "Yes." "Beat me." "Please." "Yes." "That's good." "Continue." "Yes." "Yes." "Hello, Fred." "Hello." "I didn't know that you would come, too." "Donen wrote me to come here." "Yes, he told me the same thing." "Really, that's very mysterious." "He wrote I should come alone and take care that no one follow me." "Last night, Jonathan Walker was killed." "No, I don't believe that." "We stay in the same hotel." "And about midnight, I returned there." "My room was next to his." "Well, I heard somebody leaving his room." "I thought it was Walker." "I opened the door." "It was a girl, leaving his room." "One of those girls one doesn't usually bring into the hotel." "She was dark-haired, vulgar." "Like one usually imagines a prostitute." "I entered his room and I found him." "It was...." "It was a horrifying sight." "His throat was cut." "And his penis had been cut off." "Oh, that's terrible." "Horrifying." "That's insane." "Have you called the police?" "Yes, of course." "Before, I removed something." "It was this note." "Please read it." ""He is the first and three others will follow." ""J."" ""J"?" ""J" like Johnson." "But Johnson is dead." "Pardon me, you are English, right?" "No." "Oh, my mistake." "I thought so, because you're reading an English book." "I understand some English." "Look, the red flamingos." "What did you say?" "The flamingos." "Behind those mountains is a lagoon." "There are many of them." "How nice." "I will go there once." "You should." "You must not always stay in your room reading." "Yes, you are right." "But I don't know anybody here and it is a bit boring." "Guess where I come from." "Canada?" "No." "South Africa?" "Oh, no." "Then I don't know." "I come from Austria." "From Vienna." "Yes, of course." "Seeing you... so delicate like porcelain, so lively like a Viennese waltz...." "Thank you." "You know...." "Yes?" "I am as alone you are here and of course I am bored, too." "Do you have some other books?" "Yes, quite a lot." "If you want to, I can lend you some." "Good heaven." "Right now?" "Yes, of course." "If you want to come with me, we must go up there." "All right, let's go." "Yes, come on." "You know, usually no one is supposed to stay there." "Really?" "How come?" "For special guests only." "I'm living here in exile." "Very exciting." "That is beautiful." "Yes?" "Do you like it?" "Very much." "Do you want to choose the books now?" "I am in no hurry." "As you like." "We have plenty of time." "I'll fetch us some drinks." "Do you like sherry?" "Yes, thank you." "Thank you." "Cheers." "Cheers." "Are you a painter?" "Yes." "I think your style is very masculine." "I wouldn't call it masculine, but personal." "Anyway, I like them a lot." "So beautiful." "Pardon?" "Of course, the paintings." "For the moment, I don't paint." "I'm not quite in the mood for it." "You know... to be honest, I hate sherry." "But in your company, I like it much more." "Thank you." "I love this painting the most." "I would never give it away." "What does it mean?" "Everything you want to see in it." "I like it, but it is somehow depressing." "The shapes are so hard." "It is only my composition." "The play of colours." "Just that." "But I love it." "It is wonderfully clear, like the light." "Exactly as I hope my soul will be once." "This painting is my mirror." "It seems to be hard, but it is soft and warm." "You are beautiful." "Wonderful." "Come." "You are the second pig that died." "Have a nice sleep, darling." "Now no one will disturb your rest." "Prof. Walker is dead." "I did it." "And also the woman can't do you any harm anymore, my darling." "Are you happy now?" "Are you?" "Please speak!" "Dear parishioners, let us pray." "Brothers." "Praise the Lord and thank him for the good he does to you." "He has given you life and he will take it from you... so that you can return into his lap." "Let us sing." "What's the matter?" "Leave me alone." "I don't want to bother you... but when I saw you crying in the church...." "I want to help you." "Please believe me." "Is there something I can do for you?" "No." "Are you sure?" "No, no." "Thank you, but there is no point in trying." "You know, I once married in this church and this is the first time I've come back." "Please excuse me." "Wait." "Please." "Someone who is happy does not cry." "You really seem terribly unhappy." "My husband is very ill." "I don't know to help him." "Is your husband as young as you are?" "Nowadays, nearly all diseases can be cured." "No one can help him." "I am a doctor." "Maybe I can help." "Shall we go and see him?" "Please stop crying." "I am Dr. Franklin Houston." "When I said my name, she was very shocked... as if the devil was standing in front of her." "Of course I was worried about it." "She was a beautiful young woman." "If she didn't know me... why should she be shocked hearing my name?" "There is no doubt." "She must be Dr. Johnson's wife." "Houston!" "Stop it." "Stop talking nonsense." "That girl seems familiar." "Houston, please wait for me." "Who is the woman at that table?" "What woman?" "Dr. Houston." "Please take a seat." "It's about...." "I guess you are informed about the Walker and Crawford murder cases." "Yes." "I work on those cases." "Well..." "I am convinced that the murderer wants to kill me, too." "And why?" "For revenge." "He wants to take revenge on us." "Dr. Crawford, Dr. Walker, Donen and me." "What makes you think he wants to take revenge on you?" "The research report of a young doctor, a certain Dr. Johnson." "We have rejected it." "And we had him expelled from the medical association." "Nonsense." "It's not that easy killing someone." "After all, Dr. Johnson is dead." "So what do you want?" "Please excuse me, but it is not my job to hunt ghosts and spooks." "The living ones are already enough trouble, you understand?" "But you have to do something." "Yes, we will investigate." "You cannot dismiss my reputation like this." "I am not just anybody." "Listen to me, I need to be protected." "Very well." "You can count on our assistance." "But only when you are in real danger." "I am sorry." "Goodbye." "Have you got a light?" "Leave me alone." "Leave me alone." "What would you like?" "A Bloody Mary." "Have you got a light now?" "Yes." "Yes." "Please." "Don't you want to talk to me?" "No." "I want my peace." "Leave me alone." "Come nearer." "Why... do you haunt me?" "Tell me why." "Are you afraid?" "Yes." "I am afraid." "Why?" "You know it." "You are afraid of a woman?" "Yes." "Terribly afraid." "Terribly...." "That's nonsense." "Do I look like a murderer?" "I know that Dr. Johnson wants to take revenge on me." "But I am not Dr. Johnson." "Come on, come here." "Don't be afraid of me." "You are a devil." "It is over, darling." "For both of us." "We will leave together." "We will leave together, do you hear me?" "Both of us, do you understand?" "We make a new start." "Just the two of us." "Just us." "My wife." "Why did my wife have to die, too?" "The death is a result of suffocation.... caused by a pillow pressed on her face." "As far as we could see... there must have been a fight." "Her body is covered with scratches." "Inspector." "I say... most probably it is the same culprit." "Inspector." "The corpse of the professor has arrived... the one who was in your office the other day." "He is covered with stab wounds." "The corpse is in a dreadful state." "What human being could do something like this?" "Well?" "Shall we be bring the corpse up here, Inspector?" "Yes, do so." "The only clue we have left is Dr. Houston." "We have to keep an eye on him." "Come, gentlemen." "We have a lot of work to do." "I am sure, sooner or later we will find this insane person." "But we must not lose time." "That is all that counts now." "You will suffer." "You shall suffer like he did." "Like him." "My husband...." "When you are dead, he may sleep calm." "My love." "We will be united... in death." "Soon I will be with you." "Inspector, Mrs. Johnson and her husband are in the car." "Both dead." "A dead man was accused of all those crimes." "And I even think it's true." "Basically, Mrs. Johnson is a ordinary woman... and if her husband was alive, she would never have committed those crimes."
