"[Man Narrating] My name is Johnny Barrett." "I'm a reporter on the Daily Globe." "This is my story... as far as it went." "When was the first time you got this urge, Mr. Barrett?" " There must have been a first time." " When I was 14." "And when I was much younger... 10... that's when I got the feeling." "What gave it to you?" "Her braids." "Tell me about her braids." " I got excited." " Go on." "I grabbed her braids." "Is that when you hurt her?" "I never hurt her." "Did you pull on her braids?" "I caressed them." " Just..." " Did you pull on them?" "Do you think I'm a fetishist?" " Hell, no, Johnny!" " [Groans]" " Let them bring up that word... not you." " Yeah." "You'll be facing the best psychiatrists in the state." "They'll know when you're shamming." "[Thinking] I feel sorry for Doc Fong." "Professionally he knows he's playing with dynamite." "But he just couldn't turn down his closest friend, Swanee." "They were in psychological warfare back in World War II." "Today, the doc's a topflight head-candler, and Swanee's my boss... managing editor of the Daily Globe." "The role you'll be playing will be stronger than your strongest imagination... so don't ever weaken." "It'll be a daily duel between the insane and your own sane mind." "And as for the doctors there... lower your mast for an instant and they'll know you're a phony." "Never let them forget you're living on a sexual powder keg." "He's all yours, Swanee." " Think he's ready?" " As he ever will be." "Well..." "[Sighs] the next move is yours, Cathy." "Caressing my braids." "Kissing them." "What a disgusting story." "What happens if they find out I'm not really his sister?" "I'll handle that." "Johnny..." "Johnny, you've got to be crazy to want to be committed to an insane asylum to solve a murder." "Even if I don't crack this case, honey, my experiences alone..." " will make a book, a play or even a movie sale." " But..." "Every man wants to get to the top of his profession." " Mine is winning the Pulitzer Prize." " Johnny..." " If this story doesn't do it, nothing ever will." " But their sickness is bound to rub off on you." "I said the same thing to you when you started singing in your skin." " Remember, Cathy?" " That's different." "But those hookers didn't get to you, did they?" "And those lunatics are not gonna get to me." "He's right." "Reporters have impersonated coal miners, school teachers, hoodlums." "Those reporters went in for a purpose." "Not to win a journalistic halo on the cover of Life." "And not to win a cash prize and get their pictures in Time and Newsweek." "Oh, come on, Cathy." "All you have to do is play your part." "I'm fed up." "Fed up playing Greek chorus to your rehearsed nightmare." "Why don't you smuggle aboard a rocket and write the memoirs of an astronaut?" " You have any cigarettes, Cathy?" " Why don't you give up this psychoanalytical binge?" "Because it's what people buy." "Mark Twain didn't psychoanalyze Huck Finn or Tom Sawyer." "Dickens didn't put Oliver Twist on the couch because he was hungry." " Oh, come on, Cathy." " Good copy comes out of people, Johnny... not out of a lot of explanatory medical terms." "Oh, stop it, will you?" "You're on a hopped up, show-off stage." "Get off it." "Don't be Moses leading your lunatics to the Pulitzer Prize." " Would you care for a cigarette?" " You make me sick!" "Sick at the thought of you playing games with your mind and riding that crazy horse." "He has been conditioned for a whole year to ride that horse." "You've got to saddle it and get me off and running, that's all, Cathy." "Scratch me in this race, Johnny." "We made a deal." "My whole instinct is to kick myself hard for ever having gone into this deal with you." "What I should do is to land a righteous punch in your supercivilized nose." "Oh, Cathy, you're an intellectual, well past the age..." "Don't you dare analyze me!" "Johnny?" "Johnny." "Johnny, I'm in love with a normal reporter holding down a normal job." "Mm-hmm, normal." "Do you think I like singing in that sewer with a hot light on my navel?" "I'm doing it because it pays more than shorthand or clerking or typing." " I know that, Cathy." " I'm saving money so we can have that normal life." " That's all I want." " I know all about that." "But I'm scared." "I'm scared when I see how calm Dr. Fong and Swanee... and you can be about this whole crazy scheme of yours." "Oh." "I'm scared this whole Jekyll-Hyde idea's going to make a psycho out of me." "Oh, now, wait a minute, Cathy." "Cathy." "Do you think I'd ever let anything happen to you?" "But you've just gotta go through with your part, honey." "You're the only one we can trust." "Thank God." "Cathy." "Cathy." "Then go back to your dive!" "Dive?" "That dive is holy compared to your ideas of work." "Hamlet was made for Freud, not you."

"As a reporter, did you ever cover a story... where a man became intensely excited whenever he saw a woman with long hair... long, loose hair?" "Yes." " Did he make love to her?" " Yes, he killed her." "You don't want to wake up some fine morning to learn you killed your sister." "Oh, now, Doctor, I'm no epileptic with some kind of fetish for hair!" " Of course, Cathy..." "Now, her hair is different." " I understand." " I figured you would." "Yes." " I understand." "Didn't you threaten to commit suicide if she ever got married?" "Didn't you threaten your sister if she wouldn't let you make love to her?" " That's different." " Why?" " Because she's different." " Why is she different?" " Because!" " Because why?"

""he is taking the form of a mental breakdown... an acute schizophrenic episode."" "Well, what does it mean?" "Means I'm a pretty good teacher, and Johnny's a smart student." " So far, so good." " I don't mean that." "Aren't either of you concerned about his breakdown?" "What breakdown?" "Well, taking all those tests is bound to make him sick." "You're right." "That is something to worry about." "[Fong] On the contrary, I think he's caught the perfect mood... a borderline psychosis, exactly as we rehearsed."

"If you don't phone Dr. Cristo right now and get Johnny out of there tonight, I will." "Oh, Cathy, you're becoming a nervous wreck." "I'm more worried about you outside than I am Johnny inside." " Phone him!" " You phone him!" "Call Dr. Cristo, and you lose Johnny for good, and you know it!" "[Loud Chewing]" "Have a stick of gum." "Have another one." "Come on." "Chew two."

"A little more." "That'll be just enough." "Chew." "Come on." "Chew, chew, chew." "See, you chew, and your jaw muscles, they get tired." "See?" "And then the other muscles, they get the message and they get tired too." "See?" "And before you know it... you're sleeping." "And when we're asleep... nobody can tell a sane man from an insane man." "Huh?" "[Laughs]" "Good night, Mr. Barrett." "Good night, Mr. Pagliacci." "[Snoring]" "[Snoring Continues]" "Did you make Johnny change his mind?" "I tried, but he's just too close to the story now." "That ex-G.l. Stuart has been transferred to another floor... but Johnny is certain that Trent or Boden will open up." " Was Dr. Fong with you?" " Uh-huh." "What did he say?" "That it's natural for Johnny to show mental strain." " What else?" " Well, that's it." "Do you want me to check with Dr. Fong myself?" "Well, he is afraid that the force driving Johnny can boomerang." "Meaning he could snap?" "ls that it?" "Now, don't jump to conclusions." "Look, if I pulled him off now, he'd still suffer from some kind of depressive psychosis... because he'd never know what would have happened... if he had stuck it out long enough to contact the other witnesses." "You mean if he quits now, that depression sickness could hit him?" "Yes." "But if he cracks the murder, he'll be all right, won't he?" "Yes." "Do you seriously believe that?" "Yes!" "You're crazy!" "[Gasping]" "[Sniffles]" "Oh, no." "No, thank you." "No." "There is nothing in there that will hurt you." "Last time I went into a strange room, I was attacked by amazons."

"No." "Just saw the twitch in one of your muscles." "The one in my head?" "Tell me, John." "Is your desire for your sister still as strong as ever?" "I'll tell you what, Doc." "You level me off, and I'll share all my dreams with you." "I'm cold and sweaty!" "Chill sweats are usual in your case." "[Mutters]" "What is my case?"

"Do you know the conductor of the state symphony orchestra?" "No." "I do." "He comes here now and then as guest conductor of our own hospital band." "I like him, but, uh, he's mixed up."
