- Is that all?
- Nothing else to do.
Had it ever occurred to you
No it hadn't...
Don't you like to see me?
If you knew how anxious
I was for you to get here
you wouldn't have to ask that.
- Honest?
- Very honest.
other outside the office.
We will, I'm sure.
- Would you like to?
- Very much.
- All right, when?
- Soon.
But not before we finish
with these test I'm afraid.
What does that got to do with it?
It's hard enough for me to keep
my mind on science as it is
don't make it anymore
difficult for me.
- It's a date.
- Remember.
I will remember, Terry.
I was really crazy about that boy,
but Terry simply couldn't stand him.
She insisted that he wasn't on
the level, and she was right.
How did you find out?
He dated her one night
and she told me.
Terry turned in.
How many men have you
been crazy about?
That was just a kid stuff.
We were about 16.
All this biography I'm given you
is this for science too?
No, this is personal.
The more I know about you,
the more I wanna know.
I want to know everything
about you, for myself.
And apparently you will.
Good night.
Do you think, when this is over,
I can ask you out to dinner,
dancing or just to talk,
You think you'll still want to?
Do you mind?
No. I like it.
You are a wonder!
It's all right.
I'm not asleep.
Don't turn on the light.
I'll undress in the bathroom.
You're taking a
sleeping pill tonight?
No, I slept all right last night.
- I think you better take two.
- Two? Why on earth for?
If you take two, maybe you won't
be so troubled in your sleep.
- You mean I talked?
- Talked, cried.
You scare me half
to death sometimes.
Good heavens!
- Dreaming, I suppose.
- No.
You don't remember what you dream?
I don't remember even dreaming.
You don't remember my
waking you last night
- when you were sobbing.
- No.
Or what you said to me?
What did I say?
So big deep sobs,
you were terrified
as if you were seeing something so
dreadful you couldn't bear to face it.
You don't remember what it was?
I do not remember anything.
But I thought you awakened.
Pretty haring for a few minutes.
But I can't imagine what
it was to frighten me so.
- Has it happened before?
- A few times.
One night you were
rather gay for a change.
You seemed to have dreamed
something about Scott.
- You think a lot of him often?
- I do like him but...
Does he like you?
Some, I imagine.
Ever said anything?
Nothing serious,
just casual things...
Ever kissed you?
He maybe just trying to pump you.
I don't think so.
Don't you want to know what
seems to be frightening you?
I don't know.
You talked about
before in your sleep.
of us being... crazy.
The old saying, that one of the
twins is likely to be abnormal.
But that's not true,
that's a superstition.
You heard Scott
telling the D.A. that.
I know.
That's an old wives tale
we've heard it for years
but it's not true.
Didn't you hear Scott
say it wasn't?
Yes, I heard him.
This is so awful.
It frightens me.
dreaming and sobering and...
and don't remembering
nothing about it.
It can't be very pleasant,
but it's not really so
important, just bad dreams.
I know but... Such a thought...
What's this one?
Blood pressure and pulse.
- A lie detector?
- That's an easy name. Do you mind?
Why should I? What do you
want me to talk about?
I'll let you know
when we are ready.
- How much longer?
- Winding up this week.
Friday afternoon and that's that.
- The whole thing?
- Yes, the work is complete.
- Then Saturday is the night.
- The night?
- If you tell me you've forgotten...
- Oh, sure.
- Remember?
- That's right.
Well?
I'm afraid I did forget.
I'm terribly sorry.
You mean you can't make it?
Any other night, but...
What a man! And me thinking that he
was simply living for that night.
It's inexcusable. But we
finish sooner than expected.
Who's my rival?
You have no rival.
Is that always the answer
during office hour too?
Your memory is too good.
Come on, shall we go with this now
and straighten the thing out later?
There's nothing to straighten out.
My heart is broken, that's all.
Let's have the machine.
All I want you to do is to
answer a few simple questions.
Not on any forbidden subject.
You needn't worrying.
It's all over the whole thing.
Ask me anything you'd wish.
Does that goes for Ruth too?
That you better ask her.
Of course.
I hope so, anyway.
You've both been through
a terrible ordeal
if you manage to come out of it
okay... that's wonderful.
What are you gonna ask me?
You were telling me the
other day about when
your were living in Ohio,
before moving to Chicago.
Anything interesting
about that time?
Off hand...
I believe that Ruth was telling
me about a boy she went with
that you didn't care much for.
Freddie Eckland.
Yes, I think...
In Dayton.
What did she say?
She told that you said he wasn't
Was she complaining?
Good heaven, no!
She was grateful.
She was rambling about how you
were always looking out for her
like a older sister.
Did she tell you that
I met him first?
No, I don't think she did.
The truth is that I met him first
and introduced him to her.
He did care the slightest
for her, and I knew it.
He started to go around with her.
Without her even dreaming that
it was me he was interesting.
What is it, dear?
That light again!
Wake up. You're dreaming again.
No, it wasn't a dream!
Didn't you see it?
There wasn't anything to see.
You're dreaming.
It wasn't a dream!
It wasn't asleep!
The whole room lighted up, Terry!
Now, you're all right.
There is nothing to be afraid of.
But I was sure I saw it.
It doesn't matter,
it really doesn't.
But what is it, what
do you think it is?
Something is happening to me
and I don't know what it is!
I don't understand it!
You're just imagine things.
on you, that's all.
I'm so scared!
I'm scared!
I don't know what to do!
It's nothing really.
Just remember I'm with you
and always will be with you.
No matter what happens.
So that's all there is to it?
Yes, that's all I'm afraid.
I didn't promise you
a great deal more.
All I can say is that
Ruth did not do it.
She's simple isn't capable
of that sort of thing.
That does narrows it down a bit.
Terry is paranoiac,
and has no conscience, no
sense of right and wrong
than that of a two year old.
Paranoiac is capable of anything.
That's something, but not much.
You can't run loonies until
they have done something.
If the family don't see
fit to admit them,
you've to wait until
someone is set on fire.
Unfortunately.
Pretty tough on Ruth.
You're gonna tell her?
I suppose so.
But it's not gonna be easy.
- She hasn't a ghost of suspicion.
