Death Becomes Her Page #8

695

00:
59:01,840 -- 00:59:05,833

I fainted and I woke up

and it was all dark.

696

00:
59:05,880 -- 00:59:08,553

I kept yelling

and yelling and yelling.

697

00:
59:08,640 -- 00:59:11,313

Nobody heard me.

Nobody did anything.

698

00:
59:11,400 -- 00:59:13,675

Then I didn't know where

I was and I got scared.

699

00:
59:13,760 -- 00:59:17,116

It's okay.

It's all right.

700

00:
59:17,200 -- 00:59:20,875

Ernest, I'm in the morgue.

701

00:
59:20,960 -- 00:59:23,110

- Why am I in the morgue?

- Shh! It's okay. It's okay!

702

00:
59:23,160 -- 00:59:25,515

Listen! I understand now.

It's incredible!

703

00:
59:25,560 -- 00:59:28,518

It's physically impossible,

but now I understand it.

704

00:
59:28,560 -- 00:59:32,519

- They think I'm dead, Ernest.

- Yes! But you're not!

705

00:
59:32,560 -- 00:59:35,279

In the whole of recorded

medical history,

706

00:
59:35,320 -- 00:59:38,437

this has never happened

to another single human.

707

00:
59:38,480 -- 00:59:42,155

Yeah, so, why did it have

to happen to me?

708

00:
59:42,200 -- 00:59:45,317

- Do you know what you are, darling?

- Uh-uh.

709

00:
59:45,360 -- 00:59:49,353

You're a sign.

You're an omen, a burning bush!

710

00:
59:49,400 -- 00:59:51,994

- I am?

- Of course you are.

711

00:
59:52,080 -- 00:59:54,799

We're being told that

we belong together.

712

00:
59:54,880 -- 00:59:58,350

And I'm being called.

I'm being challenged.

713

00:
59:58,440 -- 01:00:01,591

Don't you see, Madeline?

It's a miracle!

714

01:
00:38,080 -- 01:00:40,594

Oh, my God!

715

01:
01:04,080 -- 01:01:07,959

Sh*t!

716

01:
01:23,920 -- 01:01:25,831

Oh!

717

01:
01:51,920 -- 01:01:53,990

Formaldehyde.

718

01:
01:54,040 -- 01:01:57,191

What in God's name?

719

01:
02:26,600 -- 01:02:28,477

Darn it.

720

01:
02:33,520 -- 01:02:35,397

It's just not the right balance.

721

01:
02:35,440 -- 01:02:38,352

- How's it goin', Ern?

- I don't wanna rush things, Madeline.

722

01:
02:38,440 -- 01:02:41,910

Who keeps calling?

723

01:
02:42,000 -- 01:02:44,355

- Huh?

- Who is that?

724

01:
02:44,400 -- 01:02:47,358

I can't have these interruptions!

725

01:
02:50,040 -- 01:02:53,555

I'm gonna need you

to hold very still.

726

01:
02:53,640 -- 01:02:55,995

Oh!

727

01:
02:56,080 -- 01:02:59,197

- What?

- Madeline!

728

01:
02:59,280 -- 01:03:02,511

- I asked you to sit still.

- Mmm, what's the matter?

729

01:
03:02,600 -- 01:03:05,478

- I need more turpentine now.

- Are we almost done?

730

01:
03:05,520 -- 01:03:08,910

The highlights of your eyes

are unbalanced. Want people to stare?

731

01:
03:09,080 -- 01:03:13,631

I can't use kerosene

because it'll affect the skin.

732

01:
03:16,120 -- 01:03:18,953

Where is she?

733

01:
03:22,160 -- 01:03:26,039

Oh, my gosh, Helen!

What are you doin' here?

734

01:
03:26,120 -- 01:03:28,509

What's that on your hands?

Blood?

735

01:
03:28,560 -- 01:03:30,676

- Paint!

- Paint?

736

01:
03:30,760 -- 01:03:32,637

What would you be doing that

you have paint on your hands?

737

01:
03:32,720 -- 01:03:34,950

- Painting.

- Ernest.

738

01:
03:35,040 -- 01:03:38,077

Are you doing something funny

with Madeline?

739

01:
03:38,160 -- 01:03:41,357

- Define funny.

- Oh, come on, Ernest. Cough her up!

740

01:
03:41,400 -- 01:03:43,595

Shh, shh, shh,

listen, Helen.

741

01:
03:43,680 -- 01:03:45,955

- We should go outside and talk.

- Why are you whispering?

742

01:
03:46,000 -- 01:03:50,278

- She's resting and in a foul mood.

- Are you nuts?

743

01:
03:50,320 -- 01:03:53,039

- She's resting!

- She's not resting.

744

01:
03:53,080 -- 01:03:57,358

She's dead, Ernest, just like we wanted,

just like we plotted together.

745

01:
03:57,440 -- 01:04:01,149

Remember? You may have done it alone,

but I can't walk away now.

746

01:
04:01,200 -- 01:04:03,953

- Not after you put us both in jeopardy!

- Shh!

747

01:
04:04,040 -- 01:04:08,352

We have to bury her in Death Valley

and be done with her once and for all.

748

01:
04:08,400 -- 01:04:11,756

- You have to listen to me.

- Stop waffling. She deserved it.

749

01:
04:11,840 -- 01:04:16,197

She was a home wrecker.

She was a man-eater.

750

01:
04:16,240 -- 01:04:19,038

And she was a bad... actress.

751

01:
04:19,120 -- 01:04:24,274

- Would you please listen to me!

- Oh, stop it!

752

01:
04:24,360 -- 01:04:26,794

Madeline is not ready

to be buried yet.

753

01:
04:26,840 -- 01:04:29,274

- She's upstairs resting peacefully.

- Oh, fine!

754

01:
04:29,360 -- 01:04:31,476

If she's not dead,

you tell her to come here.

755

01:
04:31,560 -- 01:04:33,915

Tell her to come here,

walk right up to me...

756

01:
04:34,000 -- 01:04:36,434

- and kiss me on the...

- Kiss you on the what?

757

01:
04:38,080 -- 01:04:42,471

- Mad?

- Hel.

758

01:
04:42,560 -- 01:04:45,358

- Darling.

- What have you two...

759

01:
04:45,400 -- 01:04:49,359

been plotting down here

or should I say, what else?

760

01:
04:49,400 -- 01:04:54,428

Are you angry, dear?

Are you very angry?

761

01:
04:54,480 -- 01:04:58,951

- It's alive.

- Madeline?

762

01:
04:59,040 -- 01:05:03,272

Oh, boy! Helen, I think you

should leave right away.

763

01:
05:03,320 -- 01:05:07,074

I see a very bad

situation developing here.

764

01:
05:07,120 -- 01:05:10,590

Dear? Madeline?

765

01:
05:20,120 -- 01:05:22,156

I just want you

to know one thing, Hel.

766

01:
05:23,640 -- 01:05:25,517

You brought

this on yourself.

767

01:
05:25,560 -- 01:05:26,913

Madeline!

768

01:
05:30,360 -- 01:05:32,874

Oh, my God!

769

01:
05:34,560 -- 01:05:38,599

- What have you done?

- What have I done? Defended myself.

770

01:
05:38,640 -- 01:05:40,835

You plotter, coconspirator!

771

01:
05:40,880 -- 01:05:44,111

- She's dead!

- She is?

772

01:
05:44,200 -- 01:05:48,557

These are the moments

that make life worth living.

773

01:
05:48,600 -- 01:05:51,717

My God, Madeline, that was horrible.

It was brutal.

774

01:
05:51,760 -- 01:05:54,672

It was stupid!

The police, Madeline! The police!

775

01:
05:54,760 -- 01:05:57,672

What are they gonna do? Put me

in the gas chamber? Big deal.

776

01:
05:57,720 -- 01:06:00,712

Life in prison? Know what that

means to a person in your condition?

777

01:
06:00,760 -- 01:06:05,675

- So negative. Let me enjoy the moment.

- What about the neighbors?

778

01:
06:05,760 -- 01:06:10,151

Neighbors? In 12 years in Los Angeles,

have you ever seen a neighbor?

779

01:
06:10,200 -- 01:06:13,158

Oh! I gotta think!

I gotta think!

780

01:
06:13,200 -- 01:06:15,111

One of us has

to stay rational.

781

01:
06:15,200 -- 01:06:19,512

I am completely rational.

We're going to bury her.

782

01:
06:19,600 -- 01:06:21,989

In Death Valley.

You and I.

783

01:
06:22,040 -- 01:06:24,395

I most certainly will not!

784

01:
06:24,440 -- 01:06:29,355

Oh, no? Pretty strong words

for a murderer on the run,

785

01:
06:29,440 -- 01:06:32,796

which is exactly

what you are, Ernest.
