Turn around.

Put up your arms.

Now, put them down.

So. Now walk quite naturally

as if no one was with you.

Be charming and clever when you speak

to the guards, and be careful, Richard.

I may press the trigger

in my excitement.

Open the door.

I'm sorry, sir,

but you can't leave.

But please, I... I...

I told you

to act cleverly.

Surely, you can still lie.

I recall your being an expert.

Good morning,

Mr. Cobb.

Good morning. Have you been took ill?

I'm not feeling very well.

I'm just going out for some

fresh air. I'm sorry, sir.

Bill up there had no right letting

you through. Inspector's orders.

I'm not a prisoner. I'm

under protective custody.

Suppose this invisible chap

is hiding about?

Aren't you afraid

of that?

Why, of course not.

No more am I, sir.

Between you and me, sir, I'll have to see

him before I'll believe he's invisible.

Oh, just to keep the record straight, sir,

I'll have Bill phone the Inspector. Bill!

Bill!

He's in the kitchen again

with his head in the icebox.

You wait here a minute, sir.

I'll phone the Inspector myself.

Here we are.

Recognize the place?

Geoffrey...

Quiet!

Good morning, Mr. Cobb.

Good morning.

Good morning to you.

Get out. Geoffrey, give

me a chance to explain...

I intend to immediately.

Out!

Move along now.

You'll find the key

under the mat.

Unlock the door.

Light that candle.

Yes, Richard,

it's your friend, Spears.

Move over to him. I want you

to take a good look at him.

Go on!

Move!

Now take the gag out

of your friend's mouth.

I'm sure he wants

to talk to you.

Do as I tell you!

Go on! Go on.

Please, Sir Geoffrey,

let me down.

My dear Mr. Spears, surely you

can't be so exhausted already,

with the rope around

your neck only a few hours.

The pair of you had it

around mine for months!

Out with it! I said it once, and

I'll say it again. I saw Cobb do it!

Hit Sir Michael over the head with a

wrench and shove him down the shaft!

He promised me money and a good

position if I kept my mouth shut.

I'm innocent!

Ha! Where is

your power now?

Now I'm as invisible

as you are!

I'll show you where

my power is!

Take that!

I'll get you!

What's happening? He's

breaking the place up again.

Who's he fighting? Pink elephants, as usual.

He's a proper menace, that Willie

is! May the best elephant win!

Come on,

let's see what's up.

Now I've got you, you swine!

I'll choke the life out of you!

There!

Mr. Cobb! Mr. Cobb!

What's he running from?

- What's he running for?

Stop him!

Now I've got you, Richard!

There he is!

There he is now!

Now I have you, Richard!

Now I'm going to force

the truth out of you!

Choke it out of you!

Tell them the truth now!

These people are going

to see you for what you really are!

Stop that escalator!

Stop it! Tell them you killed my brother!

Tell them

you murdered Michael!

Tell them!

- Tell them! Tell them or I'll...

- Oh, no, don't shoot!

You got him! You got him!

Look out! Look out!

You got him!

Geoff!

Geoff!

Geoff, where are you?

Look lower in the pile.

Search with your hands,

not your eyes!

Mr. Sampson! We can't find

him up here, sir! What is it?

Keep on searching! He must be

about here somewhere. Miss Manson.

Mr. Cobb is asking to see you. I

don't want to see him. Geoffrey!

But Dr. Griffin says

he's hurt very bad, Miss.

Helen,

I killed...

Michael.

Do you mind if I borrow

your clothes, old man?

It's cold,

and I'm a bit shaky.

You don't mind,

do you?

Thanks.

Nice suit of clothes

you've got there.

You know,

I really shouldn't do this.

I really shouldn't.

They'll be able

to catch me now.

Slender waist you've got.

Not a bad fit, my friend.

You wouldn't refuse me now,

old man?

No. Thanks.

You know,

they've hunted me

all over the country.

They shot me too.

I'm a murderer.

Don't be scared,

old crow, I...

I only want your clothes.

Yes, that's right.

I'll have

to have your hat too.

I'm really freezing.

Thanks for... your help.

Why don't you find him? When

you thought he was a murderer,

you tried every way you knew

to trap him and to kill him.

But now that

you know he's innocent,

probably dying somewhere,

alone and deserted,

you've lost all interest,

haven't you?

Why don't you use your

cleverness now to save him?

I've got all my men out, Miss Manson.

You know what we're up against.

Oh, what is that?

You can't see his head!

It's Geoffrey!

His pulse is almost gone. There must

have been a tremendous loss of blood.

I believe he'd stand a chance if he

could have an immediate transfusion.

I'm ready. Shall I prepare

Miss Manson for a test?

Yes, but we need more

than she can supply.

How is he? How is he? How is he, Doctor?

Please, please! Sir Geoffrey has to have

a blood transfusion to save his life.

Who'll volunteer?

I will! I will!

Just come in quietly.

I'll have to make some tests.

Transfusion successful,

Doctor? Well, complicated.

How is he?

He'll die. Internal bleeding. No.

If only I could operate! But

how can I when I can't see him?

Sampson, I'd like

to try this antidote.

There's a very small chance that it'll work

and a far greater one that it'll kill him.

But if I don't try it,

he has no chance whatever.

Prepare a hypodermic,

please, nurse.

Frank! Frank!

The new blood itself

was the antidote!

- Helen.

- Geoffrey!

Helen, darling!
