"Devereaux?" " Frazer?" "!" " (Rattles handle)" "What are you playing at?" "Let me out of here... (Hissing)" "Devereaux, for God's sake!" "(Coughing)" "(Electronic shrieking)" "(Electronic shrieking continues)" "(Electronic shrieking stops)" "Oh, it's stopped." "Oh..." "My eardrums are hanging out." "What was that terrible noise?" "Some sort of sound beam." "I think it was coming from up there." "What is this place?" "What are they up to?" "What about Traynor?" "Did you see what they were doing to him?" "(Liz) How horrible." "He looked like he was being suffocated or something." "And those men in gas masks!" "Liz!" "Hi. I haven't seen you two before." "Are you new around here?" "Er, yes." "Didn't you change?" "It doesn't work unless you get into the gear." "Can't say I blame you - we look stupid." "Still, you get used to it." " Maria!" " Huh?" "Your name's Maria." " How do you know that?" " We met before, five years from now." "Only...you were much older then." "Professor Devereaux..." "is this wise?" "Traynor, of all people." "You know as well as I do, Dr Frazer, that gas is only a tranquilliser." "That's not what I meant." "Er, good afternoon, sister!" "Good afternoon, Professor." " What did you mean?" " What happens now?" "To Traynor?" "We let him sleep it off for a bit, maybe he'll be more reasonable." " We can't hold Traynor here." " What do you suggest?" "We should abandon the project before the whole thing gets out of hand." " lf the government finds out..." " Who will tell them?" "The volunteers will start asking questions - the entire programme could be in danger." "The cloning will go ahead, with or without government approval." "And Traynor?" "Suppose you leave that to me." "I have one or two rather interesting plans of my own for Commander Traynor." "All clear." "Come on in." " ls this your sleeping quarters?" " Home, sweet home." "All mod cons." "They treat us really well here." "We get anything we ask for." " The beds are comfortable." " You should taste the food." " We get three huge meals a day." " Prisoner's last request." " Hm?" " Oh, nothing." "Now, what's all this about Professor Devereaux?" "And me?" "In the future?" "It's a long story, and you won't believe it." " You and the others are in great danger." " For goodness' sake, why?" "What are you doing here?" "What is this place?" "Don't you know?" "This is the Devereaux Institute." " We're all volunteers." " For what?" "Scientific research, of course." "We're all students on our summer break." " To help Professor Devereaux." " What experiments?" "Where have you two been for the past five years, on the moon?" "Devereaux's working on life expansion, everybody knows that." "So it is the longevity theory - l was right." "We're submitted to daily genetic observation," " intensive blood tests, psychiatry." " Psychiatry?" "Mm, a course of hypnosis." "That's where Mr De Sarem comes in." " Doesn't it scare you?" " No, actually it's quite enjoyable." " We don't even know it's happening." " So in that room you were hypnotised?" " The time chamber, you mean?" " Time chamber?" "There are several of them." "A Regency drawing room, a Neolithic cave, even a space capsule." "It's all done by special sound waves." "So by wearing strange clothes and sitting in that strange room," " you can be transported through time?" " Right back to the reign of George lll." " Fantastic!" " lt's exhilarating, I can assure you." "Devereaux must be using psychiatric research for the cloning process." "Then why was I in the room without windows?" "Room without windows?" "What on earth's that?" "Commander Traynor." "Commander, can you hear me?" "It's me, Frazer." "How are you feeling?" "Don't try to move, I promise you you'll be all right." "(Gasping) What..." "What have you done to me?" "I can't..." "I can't move." "Listen carefully, Commander, they've used a tranquilliser drug on you, your muscles are paralysed." "It's only temporary." "In two or three hours the tension will go." "No, Commander, don't - it's quite useless." "Please...please listen to me." "It wasn't my fault, you've got to believe me." "I didn't want this to happen." "I was forced into it!" "(Gasping) Frazer..." "Help me!" "There's nothing I can do." "Devereaux would kill me." "Please!" "I can't believe it. I just can't believe it." "I trusted Devereaux, we all did." "Everything he told us seemed to make sense." "What did he tell you?" "How did he persuade you all to come here?" "Oh, Simon, don't you understand?" "He didn't persuade us, we answered his advertisement in the newspaper." "Advertisement?" "I remember the first time he interviewed me." "He was so quiet and gentle." "And logical." "Men of his age find it difficult to talk with young people, but not him." "He told me that if I helped, that getting old would one day be a thing of the past." "And now you're trying to tell me that you've seen me as an old woman five years from now." "I know it sounds incredible, but no more than you being hypnotised to a different time phase." "Even if it were true, why should I be turned into an old woman?" "The point of these experiments is to prolong life, not reduce it." "The longevity tests have never been perfected." "That's why Traynor's been trying to get the longevity drug." "Nobody's used any drugs on us." "Not yet." "But they will." "But we're volunteers." "Devereaux assured us this was the way that young people could contribute to society." " We're not here against our will." " Then why can't you leave here?" "Why are you caged in like animals?" "It isn't true!" "No, I tell you, we're here for a purpose!" "We don't need iron bars!" "Maria, don't you see?" "You've got to get out of here before it's too late." "You mustn't let the future happen!" " This boy, where did he come from?" " With the new volunteers." "I never interviewed these two." "You better tell me what's going on here, De Sarem." "I can assure you that neither of them are anything to do with me." " When they came in, I thought..." " Where are they now?" " ln the wards, I presume." " You presume?" "Ward sister!" "If they catch you in my room there'll be trouble." "What are you going to do?" "I don't know, not until I've had a chance to talk with the others." "When you get out, turn left along the corridor, at the bottom there's a door on your right, that's the laundry." "You can get out through the window." "We don't want to get out yet." "We've too much to do here." "Maria's right, if they catch us there's no knowing what they might do." "We can't achieve anything by getting caught." "All right." "Be careful, whatever you do." "See you again, sometime in the future." "Too late, it's the ward sister!" "Quick, over here!" " You alone?" " Yes, sister." "More or less." "Who's that?" "It's Joan Peterson, she had a headache after the hypnotherapy." "I told her to sleep it off." "She's only just got to sleep, poor thing." " lsn't it time you were at meal break?" " Yes, sister." "Just going." "Well, hurry up, then." "You can come out now." "(Tuts) You might've taken your shoes off." "(Door opens)" "Traynor?" "Commander Traynor?" "Are you awake?" "Ah, splendid, you are awake." "I think you and I ought to have a nice little chat." "Water..." "Oh, how inconsiderate of me, you have a thirst." "Allow me." "You know, we have a lot to talk about, you and I, Commander." "A lot of work ahead of us." "I want you to tell me all about yourself." "Your past, your present, your future." "I mean, that's what we're concerned with now, aren't we?" "(Devereaux) Who unbolted that door?" "It must've been like this all the time." "I want a guard on this room, night and day." "Nobody is to enter without my permission, clear?" "Yes, sir." "I said that no personal jewellery was to be worn inside the time chambers." "I don't understand, everyone's checked before they enter." "On second thoughts, forget about the guard on this room." "If we have mice then we must set a trap." "Lost it?" "But you can't have!" "But I have, I tell you." "I know I was wearing it." "Where could you have dropped it?" "Not inside the time chamber?" "It must have fallen off behind the sofa." "Well, it's too late now, we must find Traynor." "Simon, you promised we could go home!" " Please, don't let's stay!" " You saw what happened to Traynor." "We've got to find out why Devereaux wants him out of the way." "Simon, I'm scared." "After what happened upstairs this place gives me the creeps." " Of course, that's it!" " What is?" "That's where they've taken Traynor." "Come on!" "Oh, no, Simon, I couldn't bear it!" "Please, don't make me!" "There's nothing to be scared of." "You don't think I'd let anything happen to you?" " Very funny." " Anyway, if we can find Traynor it could solve a lot of problems." "And you know by now, no real harm can come to us when we're in the past." "Now, come on." "This way." "Tell Security to close the main gate." " No one enters or leaves until I say so." " Yes, sir." " Ready when you are." " ls he conscious?" "Yes." "But the drug is still active." "He knows what we've done to him." "I want Commander Traynor prepared for hypnotherapy." "One hour from now." "Commander Traynor?" "What is it?" "What do you want?" "Hm?" "Who are you?" "It's us, Liz and Simon." "You know us." "No, he doesn't." "This is only 1965." "Keep away from me." "Don't come near me." "We're your friends." "We've come to help you." "We saw what happened - it was Devereaux." " Devereaux." " Why are they doing this to you?" "You..." "You want to help me?" "Yes." "Just tell us what to do." "Devereaux's mad." "Mad!" "Wants to destroy me." "Wants to destroy us all." "Wants to destroy us all!" "Yes, Commander, I understand." "Got to stop him..." "Go to my office, tell them..." "We'll take you with us." "We'll help you escape." "No..." "Too late. I... I can't move." "My-My body... para-paralysed." " Simon..." " Paralysed?" "No time now, go to my office, get help." "Quickly!" "We'll go, but is there nothing we can do?" "No, nothing." "Hurry, please, hurry." "Hurry." "Come on, Liz." "(Devereaux) I'll see him alone first." "Over here." "Traynor?" "I know you can hear me, I just want to talk to you." "We've come a long way together, you and I." "We had a dream." "A dream that is about to become a reality." "The human mind and body will live on, Traynor." "Think of that." "Something that man before has never dared to attempt." "And you wanted to throw away such an opportunity." "But I will not allow our progress to stop there." "By your sacrifice... we shall change the face of the world." "The technological world of tomorrow will be vastly different from that of today." "And do you know why?" "Because of you." "I shall give you immortality." "One day the world will be yours!" "Yours and mine." "(Exhales)" "Oh, Simon, he is mad, isn't he?" "Really mad." "Yes." "And yet..." "Well, there's an awful lot in what he says." "Technology must find its way in the world." "We can't progress without it." "Oh, you - you and your scientific rubbish!" "One of these days Devereaux, or-or somebody like him, will blow the whole world up." "We know it could happen!" "For God's sake, go!" "While there's still time." "Commander Traynor, I know it's difficult for you to believe, but we know you're going to be all right." "We've seen you in the future." " What are you talking about?" " We met you before." "We helped you at the old naval station, with the German raiding party." " Don't you remember?" " No, it hasn't happened to us yet!" "You...know about the naval station?" "You were my father's commanding officer." "Frank Skinner." "You must remember him, Commander?" "Skinner...?" "Skinner." " You're his daughter?" " Yes." "Please, I don't understand." "I don't know how you got here, and I don't how it's mixed up with Gottfried and the naval station, but if you're really Skinner's daughter, then I know I can trust you." "But...if you want to save me then you must save yourselves." "Now, go." "Please, go!" "All right." "But we'll be back." "We promise." "Come on, we must go." "He'll be all right." "Simon, we can't leave him." "We just can't." "Not like that." "Listen, there's something you've got to understand." "To us, this is the past, five years ago." "Whatever's happened to Traynor in 1965 we can't prevent." "To help him we have to stop the future." "Devereaux's vision of the future." "We must get back to our own time phase." "Come on, we'd better use the stairs." "I told you Tottenham'd smash 'em." "You should've listened to me." "Yeah, got a line on." "Yeah, I won ten bob." "Eh?" "No, they haven't got any chance at all." "Look...you just ring Uncle Fred, he'll tell you what to do." "Eh?" "Oh, er..." "Very good, sir. I'll send it down straightaway." "Thank you." " Wait a minute." " What's wrong?" " Your bracelet." " lt's too late." "We can't risk being caught." "If they find it in the time chamber, they'll know we've been in there." "Come on, it won't take a minute." " That's a bit of luck." " Be careful." " lt is here. I was right." " Don't touch it." " What's the matter?" " We were on the floor." "Why's it there?" " Come on." "We're getting out of here." " (Liz gasps)" "Simon!" "Simon, what are they going to do to us?" "I don't know." "Whatever happens, you're not to tell them a thing." "Understand?" "I'm frightened." "We're never going to get away now." "Yes, we are." "They won't hold us." "They wouldn't dare." "(Buzzing)" " What's that noise?" " lt's coming from these things." "It's the beam." "Simon, it's the sound beam!" " They're going to hypnotise us." " Hold on, Liz." "Whatever you do, hold on." "I can't bear it!" "The noise!" "It's going through my head." " Simon!" " Hold on, Liz!" "Concentrate on anything but hold on!"
