00:00:00The End
00:00:38The End
00:01:07The End
00:01:40She's beautiful, isn't she?
00:01:42Lucky man, Tom Danbury.
00:01:44Every sense of lovemaking equals a sense of politics.
00:01:47It should be a happy marriage.
00:01:49Who couldn't be happy with Melody Allen?
00:01:51She's adorable.
00:02:16Oh, Cuthbert.
00:02:18Yes, sir.
00:02:19Yes, sir.
00:02:19Do you recommend this bit as my man?
00:02:22Oh, yes.
00:02:22It's delicious.
00:02:24That is, so the other guests have told me.
00:02:44So, Master Cuthbert, up to your old tricks again, I see.
00:02:47Oh, Nora, just a nip or two.
00:02:49But I'd even give that up if you did.
00:02:51I know, if I'd marry you.
00:02:52Well, you could become the biggest hetopaler in all the colonies and my answer would still be no.
00:02:56But, Nora, I have saved up enough money to pay your bond to Master Danbury.
00:03:00Why, you'd be a free woman, Nora.
00:03:02No, thank you, Cuthbert.
00:03:03I'd rather be bound to the master than tired of the likes of you.
00:03:05So, you're still in love with that little, fat, stupid tinker.
00:03:10Little he may be.
00:03:11Fat?
00:03:11Well, there's nothing wrong with an extra pound of flesh.
00:03:13But stupid?
00:03:14Hmm.
00:03:15You'll never see the day when you're half as smart as my Horatio.
00:03:18I'll say he's smart.
00:03:19Persuading you to punch holes in all the master's best copperware.
00:03:22He's a lie.
00:03:23That was my own idea.
00:03:24Oh, that's sincere.
00:03:26Nora, Nora, he's coming up the road.
00:03:28Who?
00:03:29Horatio, my darling.
00:03:30That lazy, fat tub.
00:03:32Lazy, is he?
00:03:33Why, he's the most wide-awake tinker in the colonies.
00:03:46Hello, Mr. Grant.
00:03:50Hello, Mr. Jones.
00:03:53What?
00:03:54Horatio.
00:03:55Horatio, my darling.
00:04:02Let it slide.
00:04:27Horatio.
00:04:29Horatio.
00:04:32Where are you?
00:04:34Nora! Nora!
00:04:36Saints preserve us.
00:04:38Oh, Laura.
00:04:39I had a terrible time getting here, Nora.
00:04:41I got lost east of West Point,
00:04:43and I was held up north of South Ferry.
00:04:44And not only that, at Barton's Barn,
00:04:46I had a bitish with a buttish.
00:04:48A what? A brish with a brush.
00:04:50A brush with a British. And I was shot.
00:04:52Where? Right through the saddle.
00:04:54The devils.
00:04:56Nora, I'd never go through that again for anyone.
00:05:00Except you.
00:05:08Oh, oh.
00:05:11Oh.
00:05:14Nora.
00:05:15Oh, Horatio, do my kisses suit you that much?
00:05:20I'm sitting on a pitchfork.
00:05:22Oh! Oh, I have a taste.
00:05:24Here, here. Go get it up.
00:05:25Nora! Nora!
00:05:27Get it up!
00:05:29Nora!
00:05:30What did you do?
00:05:32Nora!
00:05:34Nora!
00:05:36No!
00:05:38Ooh!
00:05:41Food. Nora, for me?
00:05:42Mm-hmm. Thank you.
00:05:44Tinker, I've missed you so much.
00:05:45I've missed you too, Nora.
00:05:48Here.
00:05:49You take the first bite. It'll taste sweeter.
00:05:51Okay.
00:05:53Oh, Horatio.
00:05:54Just happy I am to see you.
00:05:56Cuthber's been pestering me again.
00:05:58Oh, he has, has he?
00:06:00Wait till I see him.
00:06:01I'll haul off and give him the dirtiest look he's ever had in his life.
00:06:04No need of that, since we'll be leaving here tomorrow.
00:06:09Why so hasty?
00:06:10Hasty, is it?
00:06:15Tinker, you've not got the money.
00:06:18Well, you see, Nora, things are very hard and folks can't pay me.
00:06:24When I first started the trip, I had a pound, 14 shillings and sixpence.
00:06:28Then I found that a lot of my customers were badly off.
00:06:32So I bought them food with my pound and 14 shillings.
00:06:36What happened to your pence?
00:06:38I lost them in a card game.
00:06:41Oh, Horatio, you failed me.
00:06:43Oh, Nora.
00:06:45Don't worry. I'll get the money.
00:06:47Business is gonna boom now that I got a personal letter of recommendation from General George Washington.
00:06:51From the general himself?
00:06:53Yes, I have.
00:06:53You wouldn't be after telling a tale now.
00:06:56Oh, no, Nora. I got it right here.
00:06:58It isn't everyone that can get a letter from General George Washington.
00:07:03Know all men by these presents that the bearer of this letter, Master Horatio Prim,
00:07:09is a splendid artisan whose various skills have served the continental forces well.
00:07:14I take great pleasure in recommending him to all who need the services of an excellent tinker and a true
00:07:21patriot.
00:07:22Yours truly, George Washington, commander-in-chief of the United Colonies.
00:07:29Oh, Horatio, now there's nothing to stop us.
00:07:32Let me take this to Mistress Melody.
00:07:33When she learns you've been praised by General Washington,
00:07:36she'll do everything in her power to help us elope tonight.
00:07:38Stay here, my darling tinker. I'll be back soon with good news.
00:07:46Nora and I are gonna elope. We're gonna get married.
00:07:48And why not?
00:07:49Yes, why not?
00:07:51I'm a very good friend of General George Washington's.
00:08:06Nice.
00:08:09Good evening to you, Master Tinker.
00:08:12Wait a minute, you.
00:08:13I don't want any trouble with you like I had the last time.
00:08:15I only came to congratulate you.
00:08:17Congratulate me?
00:08:18Well, yes.
00:08:19Nora's told me all about you and she eloping.
00:08:22I think it's splendid.
00:08:24You do?
00:08:25I thought that...
00:08:26Yes, yes, yes, yes, I know.
00:08:28It's just a case of the best man winning.
00:08:31Oh, Arch Botkins. You're not such a bad fellow after all.
00:08:35Now, Horatio, I know that eloping with Nora means breaking her bond.
00:08:39But I think there's something that you can do...
00:08:42There is?
00:08:43...that would put you in well with Master Danbury.
00:08:45What, for instance?
00:08:47Well, now, this trunk, he wanted to take on his honeymoon.
00:08:50But, uh, he was terribly upset when he found out he'd lost the key.
00:08:53Now, if you could open the trunk, I could put you in very good.
00:08:57Well, I could try.
00:08:58Oh, now, don't be so modest.
00:09:00I know all about that letter from George Washington you have.
00:09:02George Washington?
00:09:03Yes.
00:09:04Uh-huh.
00:09:05I'll open it.
00:09:09Watch this.
00:09:13Fine.
00:09:13Now, uh, raise the lid.
00:09:15No, no.
00:09:16The lid of the trunk.
00:09:17Oh.
00:09:20By Jupiter, I do believe there's a hole in the bottom of it.
00:09:23There's a hole in it?
00:09:25Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh.
00:09:26I'm sorry.
00:09:26I'm sorry.
00:09:27My floor.
00:09:28Horatio, uh, go in there and see if it can be repaired, eh, old boy?
00:09:33Are you sure this'll get me in good?
00:09:34Oh, I'll see to that.
00:09:35Huh.
00:09:39So you are going to elope with Nora O'Leary tonight, eh?
00:09:42Well, we shall see what happens when Master Danbury finds out
00:09:45that you've talked an innocent little girl into breaking her bonds.
00:09:48Oh, you'll get, you'll get five years in prison at hard labor,
00:09:52you penniless stinker.
00:09:58Melody, darling, I'll have another surprise for you after we're married.
00:10:01Oh, but, Tom, you've already promised me the moon.
00:10:04What else might a lady expect?
00:10:08How would you fancy a title, my dear?
00:10:11A title?
00:10:12Lady Danbury, for instance.
00:10:15How does it sound to those lovely ears?
00:10:17Sir Thomas and Lady Danbury.
00:10:20But, Tom, after the war there'll be no titles in our United States.
00:10:24But, my angel, what if after the war there should be no United States?
00:10:29Who are you talking about?
00:10:36Melody, darling, would you mind going in by yourself?
00:10:39I'll join you shortly.
00:10:40Of course, Tom, but all this strange talk, this nonsense about titles,
00:10:45what does it all mean?
00:10:46Please, please, dear, I'll explain later.
00:10:56Manuel.
00:10:57Hello, Tom.
00:10:57Hello, Tom.
00:10:58Lee.
00:10:59Glad you're here.
00:11:05Hello.
00:11:06Bless me.
00:11:08Bless!
00:11:09Go.
00:11:10I'll keep her from tinkering with that tinker, so she was going to elope, eh?
00:11:13I'll tend to that.
00:11:15Go back in the kitchen.
00:11:26Master Danbury, I must see you at once.
00:11:28Sorry, Guthbert, not now.
00:11:29But, sir, this is very important.
00:11:31Confound it!
00:11:31Get out of here.
00:11:32Get out of here.
00:11:33Master Danbury, get out of here.
00:11:34If you'll only let me explain.
00:11:39Well, gentlemen, the news.
00:11:41Is it good or bad?
00:11:42It's good, very good.
00:11:43Major Andre, the king's representative, met with Benedict Arnold last night.
00:11:47Arnold has consented to surround West Point within 48 hours.
00:11:51Excellent.
00:11:51It means the end of the war.
00:11:53Washington and his rabble can never recover from such a blow.
00:11:56Congratulations, Tom.
00:11:57Your plan has worked perfectly.
00:11:58Our friend Benedict has requested that you personally come to West Point
00:12:02to help him arrange the final details tonight.
00:12:05Hold on a minute.
00:12:06I thought I saw something move.
00:12:39yours truly, George Washington.
00:12:42Who is this Horatio Prim and where is he?
00:12:44I'll not be telling you that, even if you're cutting my tongue out.
00:12:46Well, we'll take care of him later.
00:12:48There's enough evidence in this letter
00:12:49to hang your rebel friend when we've won the war.
00:12:51No, Master Tom. You were a traitor.
00:12:54You spying little hussy.
00:12:55Get rid of her. She's hurt too much already.
00:12:59Let go of me!
00:13:31Let go of me!
00:13:41Let go of me!
00:13:52Let go of me!
00:13:54Let go of me!
00:13:57Let go of me!
00:14:01Lola!
00:14:02That cuspid!
00:14:03Oh, I hate that cuspid!
00:14:06Put your hands up!
00:14:07Put your hands up!
00:14:09Speak up, Lola. Who are you?
00:14:10Horatio Prim, the thinker.
00:14:12Oh, Prim. Then you're Nora's sweetheart.
00:14:14Yes, ma'am.
00:14:14Oh, thank heavens. I need help.
00:14:16What do you think I need?
00:14:17Will you please get me out of this overcoat?
00:14:19Who knew that cuspid?
00:14:21I just learned that the United Colonies
00:14:23and General Washington are in great danger.
00:14:25You and I have to save them.
00:14:27My friend, General Washington's in danger?
00:14:29Yes, yes.
00:14:30That's all I gotta know.
00:14:31Get me out of here.
00:14:32Do you know the location of the nearest Continental Army post?
00:14:35Yes, ma'am.
00:14:36Then saddle those two horses while I finish dressing.
00:14:38Oh, holy slut. I'll be right with you.
00:14:52But, sir, when did they capture this spy major Andre?
00:14:55Early this morning, we found some papers in his boot exposing the whole foul plot.
00:15:00And some of them were signed by Master Thomas Danbury.
00:15:04Master Prim, we must get through.
00:15:06If anyone tries to stop us, we'll shoot.
00:15:08Here's a horse pistol.
00:15:09Here. This is for you. Now, what do I shoot with?
00:15:11Tinker, this is no time to jest. We must go.
00:15:13Mistress Melody, I want to tell Nora that we're going.
00:15:16You see, Nora and I, we plan to elope. I don't want her to worry.
00:15:18Oh, but Nora, she was...
00:15:22Oh, I'm sorry, Tinker. I'm afraid there won't be time.
00:15:26I'm sure Nora will understand. Hurry.
00:15:27I guess so.
00:15:41Tinker, here come some of Tom Danbury's friends.
00:15:46The back row.
00:15:48There go two of the traitors now.
00:15:50Lieutenant, surround the house.
00:15:51Yes, sir.
00:16:20Neither one of these men is Tom Danbury.
00:16:22No, sir, but they're dirty traitors just the same.
00:16:24Else they wouldn't have been shooting at us.
00:16:26What'll we do with them, sir?
00:16:27Throw them in the well. That's the only burial they deserve.
00:16:30Yes, sir.
00:16:53Hear me, ye faithless souls. May you lie there in everlasting torment,
00:16:59with but one name to identify your rotting bones.
00:17:05Traitors!
00:17:07And unless some evidence proves us wrong,
00:17:11I curse your miserable spirits to be bound to Danbury Acres till crack of doom.

00:29:56Oh, don't do that. You almost scared the life out of me.
00:29:59Oh, I'm sorry, but I was lonely up at the tree, and I got frightened.
00:30:04Please let me stay down here with you.
00:30:07Well, all right, but don't try to stop me.
00:30:10My mind is already made up.
00:30:18I can't believe it. It's exactly the same.
00:30:22Let's go in.
00:30:23We can't. Everything is locked.
00:30:25If we wasn't a couple of outdoor ghosts, we'd know what to do.
00:30:28Well, darling, why don't we try to go in the same way as we go up and down the tree?
00:30:32You know. Here I go.
00:30:42I don't think she made it.
00:30:45Come on, it's easy.
00:30:58I'm stuck.
00:31:02Melody.
00:31:04Melody.
00:31:08I didn't make it.
00:31:10Horatio, won't you ever learn?
00:31:11I'm sorry.
00:31:12Come on.
00:31:22Why, it's amazing.
00:31:27Horatio, look at this table.
00:31:31And the sofa.
00:31:33I'll light a candle.
00:31:34How could they have known what it was like?
00:31:41Don't work.
00:31:51Glass around the wick.
00:31:53Look.
00:31:56What'd you do?
00:31:58Well, blow it out.
00:32:00Blow it out?
00:32:01What?
00:32:01Go on.
00:32:07Ice cream.
00:32:13You blow it out.
00:32:18Uh-oh.
00:32:23What?
00:32:29What an astonishing idea.
00:32:32Probably got it from Ben Franklin.
00:32:34He's always inventing things.
00:32:46Be calm.
00:32:48Be reasonable.
00:32:51You see, there's nothing to be afraid of.
00:32:53I've changed my mind about haunting this place.
00:32:55Let's go back to the well.
00:32:56Oh, not yet, Horatio.
00:32:57This is fun.
00:32:59I'm scared.
00:33:00Oh, really?
00:33:04Memoirs of Thomas Danbury, Esquire.
00:33:06What?
00:33:08Thomas Danbury's memoirs.
00:33:10His grandma's?
00:33:21With a repentant heart, I dedicate these memoirs to my country and to Melody Allen, whose love I betrayed for
00:33:30vainglorious ambition.
00:33:32Speaking of the devil, there he is.
00:33:37It's a perfect copy.
00:33:39But he belongs in the library.
00:33:41And we belong back in the tree.
00:33:43Let's go.
00:33:44Oh, don't be such a fraidy-catter ratio.
00:33:46This is the first pleasure I've had since 1780.
00:33:50The harpsichord.
00:33:52It looks exactly the same.
00:33:54Don't touch it.
00:33:55Something's liable to happen.
00:33:55Oh, nonsense.
00:33:56Why don't you be like me?
00:33:57I'm sensible.
00:33:58I'm sensible, too.
00:33:59And I'm brave.
00:34:01I should have quit when I was even.
00:34:03Why don't you pull yourself together and practice what you preach?
00:34:10What was that?
00:34:19Chipper, please.
00:34:20Chippo.
00:34:22What's the matter?
00:34:23That thing over there.
00:34:24Just talk to me.
00:34:24Oh, you're just imagining things.
00:34:26Oh, no, no.
00:34:26Oh.
00:34:27That note always did stick.
00:34:30Shh.
00:34:31Somebody's coming.
00:34:37Sheldon, is that you?
00:34:39Quick, unmanifest.
00:34:47For heaven's sake, hurry up.
00:34:51Cuthbert.
00:34:52Melody, Melody.
00:34:53It's Cuthbert, and he's still alive.
00:34:55How can he be?
00:34:56I don't know.
00:34:57They say only the good die young.
00:35:01That might be better.
00:35:03How can he help me?
00:35:12I can't help you.
00:35:18I can't help you.
00:35:25Melody, I don't think he'd see me.
00:35:27Are you sure?
00:35:28Take a look.
00:35:29Watch.
00:35:56See if he can hear you.
00:35:58Whistle.
00:36:02Horatio, this is wonderful.
00:36:06Have I got an idea?
00:36:15What's the matter with me?
00:36:47How do you like that, Master Cuffman?
00:36:50Zounds.
00:36:51What well did she come out of?
00:36:53Melody.
00:36:54Emily, aren't you the playful one?
00:36:57Emily.
00:36:59Emily.
00:37:01Dr. Greenway.
00:37:03Did you hear it, too?
00:37:04Hear what?
00:37:06They're here.
00:37:08Somebody must have done something to offend them.
00:37:10Offend who?
00:37:11Them, from the well, the ghosts.
00:37:13Oh, nonsense.
00:37:14There's no such a thing.
00:37:17You hear them?
00:37:21They're laughing.
00:37:23No, no, no, no, no.
00:37:25You'd hear them if you were psychic like me.
00:37:28Emily.
00:37:29When you came in here, did you or did you not kick me?
00:37:34Certainly not.
00:37:35Uh-oh.
00:37:37Oh, you felt something, eh?
00:37:39Uh, I, uh...
00:37:40I thought so.
00:37:42It's you thereafter.
00:37:43No.
00:37:43You must have annoyed them playing that harpsichord.
00:37:46Harpsichord?
00:37:47Uh-oh.
00:37:49Uh, Emily.
00:37:52If I were you, I-I wouldn't say anything to the folks about this.
00:37:57They don't understand this psychic business like we do, you know.
00:38:00They might think you're a little bit, uh...
00:38:03You understand.
00:38:04Best you go up to bed.
00:38:06Good night, Emily.
00:38:07Good night.
00:38:08Good night.
00:38:09If you want me, all you gotta do is whistle.
00:38:22Hopsichord.
00:38:40Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
00:38:50Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha,
00:38:58ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
00:39:00Oh, this is the happiest day of my life.
00:39:03So, Cuthbert Greenway is now Dr. Greenway.
00:39:06He'll need a dozen doctors before I get through with him.
00:39:12Horatio.
00:39:13Horatio, come quickly.
00:39:15What now?
00:39:16This picture.
00:39:18That's your beloved Tom.
00:39:19This is the original painting. I'd know it anywhere.
00:39:22Look at the artist's name, Stuart.
00:39:24So?
00:39:26And that harpsichord. That note A, it always did stick.
00:39:34This is the original, too.
00:39:37I can't be wrong.
00:39:39Do you realize what this means?
00:39:41It means they were stuck with a lot of old furniture.
00:39:43Don't be so stupid. It means they found all the original furniture.
00:39:47Perhaps in this house at this very moment is your letter from George Washington.
00:39:50My letter? From George Washington?
00:39:53Horatio, if we find it...
00:39:54It'll prove that we're not traitors.
00:39:56And then we'll be able to get away from this place at last.
00:39:58Melody, where will we look first?
00:40:02In the library, of course. That's where Tom had it.
00:40:05Come on, let's search the library.
00:40:19But then you have to find it.
00:40:20It's too big.
00:40:20He's still in the library.
00:40:20When he stands at the library.
00:40:36It is.
00:40:37No!
00:40:37When once you said secret compartment, you will find secret.
00:40:40I can't find a thing.
00:40:45Look, look, look, look.
00:40:46Look, look, look.
00:40:48Melody, do I have to do all the work around here?
00:40:50Oh, my, wasn't I lovely, Horatio?
00:40:52Of course I'm in the wrong place.
00:40:54We're both in the wrong place.
00:40:55And if we don't find a letter, we're never gonna get out of here.
00:40:57Now, come on!
00:40:57Oh, be patient with me, Horatio.
00:40:59Be patient?
00:41:00Do you realize that my girlfriend Nora's been waiting for me for 165 years?
00:41:04And a girl will only wait so long, and no longer!
00:41:06Oh, right.
00:41:08Let me see.
00:41:09Desk.
00:41:10Books.
00:41:11Chairs.
00:41:13The clock.
00:41:14Have you searched the clock, Horatio?
00:41:15The clock?
00:41:16Melody.
00:41:17In my day, I was the best tinker in the colonies.
00:41:20And there's one thing I know absolutely.
00:41:23No one ever put a secret door in a clock.
00:41:25We simply gotta find that letter.
00:41:28Please help me.
00:41:30Come on.
00:41:47I don't seem to remember this piece.
00:41:50Oh!
00:41:52Oh!
00:41:56Okay, Phantom.
00:41:57We got you covered.
00:41:59Stick up your hands.
00:42:01Yeah, and this time don't try any disappearing acts or we fill you full of hot lead.
00:42:05Mister, whoever you are, don't get violent.
00:42:06There's his little playmate over there.
00:42:09Get your hands up, sister.
00:42:10Come on.
00:42:11Get them up.
00:42:12You better get them up.
00:42:13They sound awful mad.
00:42:15Okay, Phantom.
00:42:16We want to know who tipped you off.
00:42:18Start singing.
00:42:20I'm not in good voice tonight.
00:42:21You heard the boss.
00:42:22Sing.
00:42:23Come on now.
00:42:24Sing out.
00:42:25Drink to me only with the lies.
00:42:30And I will...
00:42:34Cut the stalling.
00:42:36...a pledge with mine.
00:42:41What's that?
00:42:41The jumps.
00:42:42Blow!
00:42:42Everybody blow!
00:42:49Come on, boys.
00:42:51Let them have it.
00:42:55Mara!
00:42:56Mara!
00:42:58Mara!
00:42:59Mara!
00:43:00Mara!
00:43:01Mara!
00:43:01Mara!
00:43:05Mara!
00:43:06Oh, be calm.
00:43:07Be reasonable.
00:43:12Sounds like the radio.
00:43:14But it can't be the Revolutionary War.
00:43:16Ah!
00:43:18Listen again tomorrow night to the Phantom Hour.
00:43:21How does the Phantom and his Lady escape?
00:43:23Like this.
00:43:25Wait.
00:43:26Wait for me.
00:43:27And now Midnight Dan brings you a half hour of popular dance tunes.
00:43:35Oh, the idea of Shelley playing the radio this hour of night.
00:43:38I can't understand it.
00:43:39I tell you he's off the beam again.
00:43:45Shelley!
00:43:45Shelley!
00:43:45Well, that's a fine place to take a nap.
00:43:49Shelley!
00:43:50Shelley!
00:43:52Shelley!
00:43:52Darling!
00:43:53Oh, Millie.
00:43:53He's heard Coral quickly.
00:43:55Dr. Greenway!
00:43:57Dr. Greenway!
00:43:59Dr. Greenway!
00:44:01Dr. Greenway!
00:44:02Dr. Greenway!
00:44:03Dr. Greenway!
00:44:03Emily!
00:44:04Emily!
00:44:05For heaven's sake, turn off the radio.
00:44:06Oh, darling.
00:44:07What happened?
00:44:08Oh, my head.
00:44:10Let's get him into the library.
00:44:13I'm all right now, dear.
00:44:14Thanks.
00:44:16Oh.
00:44:17Oh, there you are.
00:44:18For once, you'll really come in handy.
00:44:20They're in there.
00:44:23It's so scuffy in here.
00:44:24Talk plainer.
00:44:25I can't.
00:44:26You got your foot in my knife.
00:44:35I can't.
00:44:35Come on out, Horatio.
00:44:36It's all right now.
00:44:37Oh.
00:44:39Look.
00:44:40Oh, I'm sorry.
00:44:41Let's look for the letter tomorrow night.
00:44:42I'm tired.
00:44:43Oh, but Horatio, this is our perfect chance.
00:44:45They're all in the library, and we can search the whole interior.
00:44:48Yeah.
00:44:49You take the up interior, and I'll take the down interior.
00:44:53Be calm.
00:44:54Be reasonable.
00:44:54Oh, stop it, all of you.
00:44:55I keep telling you I didn't make this mess.
00:44:58The radio woke me just like it woke the rest of you.
00:45:01I came down here to turn it off.
00:45:03When I reached for that doorknob, something, some invisible force, yanked it open,
00:45:07and then I was met by that gust of icy wind.
00:45:09Now, don't get excited.
00:45:11I'm not excited.
00:45:12All right.
00:45:12I keep telling you there was nobody there, and I got bopped on the head with this candlestick.
00:45:16Moving under its own power note.
00:45:18Now, wait a minute, Mildred.
00:45:19I'm telling you exactly what happened, and don't stand there looking at me as if you think I'm crazy.
00:45:23I'm just as sane as Ralph.
00:45:25Yeah, that's what I'm afraid of.
00:45:26You're just overwrought.
00:45:27You're imagining things.
00:45:29No, he's not.
00:45:30It's them, all right.
00:45:31The ghosts from the well.
00:45:33They're up to their old mischief, throwing things around.
00:45:35Oh, there's a curse on this house, all right.
00:45:38Ghosts?
00:45:38There must have been a couple of interior decorators looking for a little overtime.
00:45:42If I were you, I wouldn't make fun of them.
00:45:45They don't like that.
00:45:46Really?
00:45:47Now, listen.
00:45:48Maybe she's right.
00:45:49There are many strange legends about this house.
00:45:51Couldn't it be possible that some forces from the world beyond are trying to get...
00:45:54Oh, let's stop all this.
00:45:55It's nothing but hysteria.
00:45:57Sheldon had another one of his sleepwalking spells.
00:45:59He came downstairs and turned on the radio.
00:46:02Now, doesn't that sound like a sensible explanation, Ralph?
00:46:05Well, I...
00:46:06It was the ghosts.
00:46:06I know they were here.
00:46:08And so does Dr. Greenway.
00:46:10I think we all need a stimulant.
00:46:12Where's the brandy, Emily?
00:46:13In the living room.
00:46:14I'll get it.
00:46:14I'll get it.
00:46:20Cuthbert!
00:46:26Come on!
00:46:31I tripped you, I tripped you.
00:46:43Hello.
00:47:01Hi.
00:47:03What?
00:47:04Why, I just... I just swore I...
00:47:35No. No, this can't happen to me.
00:47:38No, it's impossible.
00:47:40It's a trick of my subconscious mind.
00:47:44It's all wrong. It just can't be.
00:47:52Oh.
00:47:54Now, be calm. Ralph. Ralph!
00:47:57Be calm. Be cool.
00:48:00Don't get excited, Ralph. Everything is all right.
00:48:05These things can't be. It's a...
00:48:30Da-da-da-da-da-da-dum! Da-da-da-dum! Da-da-da-dum! Da-da-dum!
00:48:37Da-da-da-da-da-da-dum!
00:48:39But darling, I told you fifteen times! I wasn't slick!
00:48:42Gerald!
00:48:42Gerald! Ralph!
00:48:43Ralph!
00:48:44What's the matter?
00:49:13You're a bad boy.
00:49:15I'm sorry.
00:49:16I knew you were up to something.
00:49:18Now you run along.
00:49:19We have to find that letter.
00:49:20All right.
00:49:21Well, go on.
00:49:22I'll go.
00:49:23Go on.
00:49:23Hurry up.
00:49:24Hurry up.
00:49:25I'm going upstairs again.
00:49:30Mistress Melody, I'll go down into the cellar and...
00:49:33Mistress Melody.
00:49:35Mistress Melody.
00:49:36No tricks.
00:49:37No tricks.
00:49:45Nothing.
00:50:06No tricks.
00:50:09No tricks.
00:50:11Voluntary.
00:50:11That's what you like.
00:50:12Maybe.
00:50:12Let's do this control.
00:50:13Just stop.
00:50:13Just stop.
00:50:13Just stop.
00:50:40Oh, if Tom could only see me now.
00:50:50Oh, come on, Ralph. Be calm. Be reasonable.
00:50:54Oh, keep my way. Keep my way. They've got a grudge against me.
00:51:00Come on, Ralph. Now tell us what happened.
00:51:02Oh, bottles floating through space. Glasses filling up by themselves.
00:51:06And somebody tooted my stethoscope.
00:51:09You see, darling, you didn't believe me.
00:51:10Maybe now you're willing to concede there's something odd going on around here.
00:51:13No, no, I'm not, Shelly. You've merely communicated your hysteria to him.
00:51:17Yep. Yep. Yep, I hear you.
00:51:20Oh, get her. I hear you calling me.
00:51:23Ghosts of the well lead me to you.
00:51:24Oh.
00:51:25Wait a minute. Better leave that here. We need it much more than the ghosts do.
00:51:29The ghosts of the well? Why should they want to persecute us? What do they want?
00:51:32Well, maybe they got an eviction notice and want to move in on us.
00:51:35Well, you people can stay up all night babbling about ghosts, but the charming Mrs. Dean is going to hit
00:51:41the sack, and I'll take my spirits with me.
00:51:50Hello.
00:51:58Millie.
00:52:00Millie.
00:52:01Millie, what's the matter?
00:52:03Oh.
00:52:04Oh, Shelly, help me get her into the living room.
00:52:07I was coming up the stairs and a thing was coming.
00:52:09How did this get in?
00:52:12Oh, hurry, darling.
00:52:18I'll take that.
00:52:26Here.
00:52:39Take it away. Take it away.
00:52:41That dress. It's haunted.
00:52:43I saw it coming down the stairs.
00:52:45Oh, by itself, I did. That's impossible.
00:52:47Oh, it is, huh? How about that hit I got in the head?
00:52:49Yes, and what about the tooting in my stethoscope?
00:52:53Oh, stop it. Stop it, all of you.
00:52:56I can't explain about the dress or anything else,
00:52:59but I do know there's nothing supernatural about it.
00:53:02And if you don't all stop acting like a bunch of crazy neurotics,
00:53:06I'm going to start acting like one myself.
00:53:07Oh, well, listen, honey, I...
00:53:19Ma-Ma-Marie!
00:53:21Mar-Marie!
00:53:23Mar-Marie!
00:53:26Mar-Marie!
00:53:26Mar-Marie!
00:53:27Stop there!
00:53:28Mar-Marie!
00:53:29Stop there!
00:53:31Let go of her!
00:53:33Mar-Marie!
00:53:35What is the matter?
00:53:36Mar-Marie!
00:53:39Horatio! Let's get back to the tree.
00:53:41I'm afraid, come on!
00:53:45Mar-Marie!
00:53:47Mar-Marie!
00:53:48Ah!
00:54:31We'll think more clearly in the morning.
00:54:33Oh, we'd better think more clearly.
00:54:34I'll spend another night in this house.
00:54:36Ah!
00:54:40Ah! Doc! Doc!
00:54:42Ah! Doc!
00:54:43Ah! Doc!
00:54:46Ah! Doc!
00:54:47Ah! Doc!
00:54:48Ah! Doc!
00:54:48Look.
00:55:08Now, do you believe there's something supernatural going on here?
00:55:11I don't know what to believe,
00:55:12but I know whatever it is, it's... it's terrifying.
00:55:15Ghosts of the well, come back.
00:55:17They've gone.
00:55:18You frightened them.
00:55:20We did? Yep.
00:55:22They've gone back to the well, all right.
00:55:24And we're going back to town,
00:55:26first thing in the morning. Oh, June, please.
00:55:28You've got to help me figure this thing out.
00:55:32Come on, darling.
00:55:35No.
00:55:36I don't care what Emily says.
00:55:38I'm not taking part in any seance.
00:55:40I've had enough. Darling, isn't it better
00:55:42to try to find the truth? Here, let me read you something.
00:55:45This is the record of a Major Putnam
00:55:47who shot the two traitors.
00:55:49He says,
00:55:50Then we tossed their bodies down the well,
00:55:52and I cursed their miserable spirits
00:55:54to be bound to Danbury Acres till crack of doom.
00:55:57Now, don't you see, if it's anything at all,
00:55:58it must be those two poor devils.
00:56:00They can't get off this property.
00:56:01But Sheldon, that's your medieval superstition.
00:56:04Now, Shelley is right, June.
00:56:05As a psychiatrist, I've got to agree with him.
00:56:07And if we all intend to keep our sanity,
00:56:09we've got to get to the bottom of this.
00:56:11Now, if a seance is the only means...
00:56:12And that's from a man who wrote a dozen articles
00:56:15exposing all seances as fakes.
00:56:17Please, Mildred, please, both of you,
00:56:19let's do what Emily suggests.
00:56:21And if this seance doesn't work,
00:56:23I swear I'll give up the whole thing
00:56:24and go back to New York with you in the morning.
00:56:26Is that fair enough?
00:56:27Well, all right, Sheldon, that's...
00:56:29that's a deal.
00:56:30Thank you, darling.
00:56:31Go ahead, Emily.
00:56:32Now, put your hands on the table again.
00:56:34Little fingers touching.
00:56:35And we've all got to make our minds perfectly blank.
00:56:38Well, that should be easy for you.
00:56:39It is, it...
00:56:48Did you feel that?
00:56:49Yes.
00:56:51Something's happening.
00:56:52It must be them people down at the house.
00:56:54They're up to something again.
00:56:59Oh, something's pulling me.
00:57:01Me too.
00:57:03Hang on.
00:57:04Hang on!
00:57:05Hang on!
00:57:10Hang on!
00:57:19The windows.
00:57:27I can feel their presence.
00:57:32We didn't mean any harm.
00:57:34Won't you please let us go back to the well where we belong?
00:57:37I promise we will never bother you again.
00:57:41Oh, please let us go back to the well.
00:57:43What do you say?
00:57:49Oh, thank you.
00:57:52Thank you ever so much.
00:57:54Oh.
00:57:55Did you hear what that nice lady said?
00:57:58What did she say?
00:58:00Oh, shh.
00:58:00Be quiet and listen.
00:58:02They're here.
00:58:04Spirits of the well, we know the curse upon your souls.
00:58:09We only wish to help you if we can.
00:58:11Horatio, did you hear what that charming young man said?
00:58:14They want to help us.
00:58:15It's a trick.
00:58:16I don't trust them.
00:58:17Let's go back.
00:58:18If you wish to cooperate with us, rap on this table.
00:58:23Once for no, and twice for yes.
00:58:26Horatio, go on.
00:58:27Do as he says.
00:58:28Maybe they can help us find your letter.
00:58:31My mother.
00:58:33Yes.
00:58:34Yes.
00:58:35Nimbus hypnosticus lasum bedar.
00:58:40Spirits of the well, can you hear me?
00:58:44Can you hear me?
00:58:51Are you willing to help us?
00:58:58Are you the spirits of the two traitors?
00:59:07Don't you call me no traitor.
00:59:09You.
00:59:11Why do they always pick on me?
00:59:14Perhaps it was your question that offended them, Ralph.
00:59:16You're right.
00:59:17I think you've hit it.
00:59:19Are you trying to tell us that you're not traitors?
00:59:25Then who are you?
00:59:26What are you?
00:59:27Identify yourselves.
00:59:29Cuthbert Greenway, you know who I am.
00:59:31I'm Horatio Prim the Little Tinker, and this is Melody Allen.
00:59:33We were on our way to warn General Washington about Benedict Arnold.
00:59:36Horatio, Horatio.
00:59:37I mean, but I gotta...
00:59:38Don't be silly.
00:59:38Don't you realize they can't hear us?
00:59:40Who are you?
00:59:41Who are you?
00:59:42Who am I?
00:59:43How am I gonna tell them who I am if all I can do is rap yes or no?
00:59:47I've got it.
00:59:49Follow me.
00:59:49They're going away.
00:59:51I feel them.
00:59:52They're going away.
00:59:54Well, don't think it hasn't been interesting because it hasn't.
00:59:56How about a nice, quiet game of gin rummy?
00:59:59Millie, sit down.
01:00:00We're going through with this experiment.
01:00:01Emily, try calling them back, will you?
01:00:03Shh.
01:00:04Spirits of the well, come back.
01:00:06Come back.
01:00:08They're here.
01:00:09They're here.
01:00:12Look.
01:00:23Melody Allen.
01:00:31Go on.
01:00:31Get back under the table.
01:00:37They're trying to tell us that one of the ghosts is Melody Allen.
01:00:41I don't understand.
01:00:43They're both supposed to be men.
01:00:45Are you trying to tell us that one of you is Melody Allen?
01:00:50Oh, now we're all confused.
01:00:51Who is the other one?
01:00:52Who is the other one?
01:00:53I keep telling you who the other one is.
01:00:55It's me.
01:00:55It's me.
01:00:57I wonder how we can get him to tell us who he is.
01:01:00If we knew what their profession was, that might give us a hint.
01:01:03Yeah.
01:01:04You've got it there.
01:01:04Wait a minute.
01:01:06Are you a soldier?
01:01:09A gentleman?
01:01:13Why not try that old rhyme?
01:01:15The one that has all sorts of people in it.
01:01:17You know, rich man, poor man, beggar man, thief.
01:01:21June, that's a great idea.
01:01:22Spirits of the well, listen to this rhyme.
01:01:24Were you a rich man?
01:01:27Poor man?
01:01:29He was a poor man.
01:01:30That's right.
01:01:31Well, then doctor, lawyer, Indian chief won't apply.
01:01:33Uh, how does the rest of it go?
01:01:35Uh, tinker.
01:01:38Wait, wait a minute.
01:01:39He's a tinker.
01:01:40Danbury mentions a tinker right in here.
01:01:42See if I can find it.
01:01:44The shame I experienced because of my treasonable activities was increased threefold when the maid, Nora, wrote me and asked
01:01:52for information concerning one Horatio Prim, her fiancé, who was a tinker.
01:01:57Nora.
01:01:58Nora.
01:01:59Oh, Nora.
01:01:59She did worry about me.
01:02:01He had disappeared from the manor on the night of the fire, a similar fate to my beloved and innocent
01:02:06Melody.
01:02:06Oh, Tom.
01:02:07I bethought myself that this must be the self-same tinker whose letter of recommendation...
01:02:13A letter of recommendation?
01:02:14Mm-hmm.
01:02:14...from George Washington I had taken forcibly from Nora and hidden in a secret drawer.
01:02:20Uh, wait a minute.
01:02:21Now, just a minute.
01:02:22Then if the tinker had a letter from George Washington, he couldn't have been a traitor.
01:02:27We're right, you see?
01:02:28We're right!
01:02:29Don't tell me we're gonna spend the rest of the night trying to contact George Washington.
01:02:33Don't you understand?
01:02:35What they've been doing is looking for proof of their innocence.
01:02:38That letter.
01:02:38Of course.
01:02:39That letter would remove the curse from them.
01:02:43Horatio!
01:02:43They know!
01:02:44They know!
01:02:44Isn't it wonderful?
01:02:45I did it!
01:02:46I did it!
01:02:46Oh, boy!
01:02:47We'll be out of here in no time!
01:02:51Well, Sheldon, all the original furniture is here.
01:02:53All we have to do is find that secret drawer that Danbury mentioned.
01:02:56Yes, the drawer.
01:02:56Yeah.
01:02:57Perhaps they know.
01:02:58Let's ask them.
01:02:58Come on!
01:02:59Mistress Allen!
01:03:00Master Prim!
01:03:01Where is the secret drawer?
01:03:03Do you know?
01:03:05Ah, it's Botkins and copper pots.
01:03:07That's just it.
01:03:07We don't know, do we?
01:03:15There she goes again.
01:03:17Must be number one on her hit parade.
01:03:19Shh, Millie!
01:03:20Please, answer me.
01:03:21Have you any idea where this letter may be hidden?
01:03:25Go slowly, slowly.
01:03:27We can't understand you.
01:03:29Oh!
01:03:31Oh!
01:03:33Oh!
01:03:34Oh!
01:03:35Oh!
01:03:38Oh!
01:03:39Melody?
01:03:40That ain't me doing that!
01:03:42No!
01:03:42No!
01:03:45No!
01:03:45No, no!
01:03:46Look!
01:03:48I don't want to scare you folks, but that ain't me under the table!
01:03:51No!
01:03:52No!
01:03:53No!
01:03:54No!
01:04:01Melody!
01:04:06Melody!
01:04:09Her voice is changing.
