The Philadelphia Experiment Page #3

- But you don't know where?

- No.

She may be distended on her left proximal

radius and ulna, be back in a few minutes.

Could you sit over here, please,

and take your own coat off.

Ya know, there's nothing wrong with my arm,

it's just a little bit sore.

Let's be on the safe side

and check it out anyway, okay?

When we're finish here, we need you to come

to the station and fill-out a statement.

- What's gonna happen to them?

- Hold still, please.

Kidnapping with a dangerous weapon

carries a minimum of 9 to 12 years.

12 years?

- How are ya?

- Fine.

Did anything unusual happen to you

or the others prior to the accident?

Like what?

Well, did you come in contact with

any radiation or anything like that?

I... I don't know, I mean, the car just,

like, just lit-up before we hit the barricade,

- I don't really know what caused it.

- Turn your arm, please.

Why, what's wrong?

There's a man dying up there and

for the life of me I don't know why.

- Well, why don't you talk to his friend?

- He refuses to talk to anyone.

Don't move, please... thank you.

Would you like a cigarette?

Yeah.

- Thank you.

- Sure.

What the hell are you dressed like that for?

Do you like it?

Herdeg!

Good luck... sailor.

- Now, what do you mean she won't press charges?

- That's what she said.

The old couple?

They don't want to drive into town, said they can't

run their business and be at the court.

Jesus Christ! How do these people expect us to

help them, when they won't help themselves?

No wonder the God damned country's going to hell.

Excuse me, Allison, this is the Sheriff Bates.

- Hi.

- Hi.

I understand you don't want to press

charges anymore? Can you tell me why?

- I changed my mind.

- Just like that?

No particular reason, you just decided

to let the guys get away with kidnapping you?

I just don't think they deserve to go to jail

for 12 years, they have other problems.

We've all got problems, honey,

but we don't solve 'em with guns.

Now, you SURE you won't change your mind?

I'm sure.

You're a lucky sonofabitch, you know that?

Good luck.

- How you doin'?

- Fine.

We haven't actually met yet,

I'm Allison Hayes.

David Herdeg.

How does that feel?

Dr. Cannon to Neuro 1,

Dr. Cannon to Neuro 1 immediately.

Hey, Jimmy, how you doin'?

Davey.

I was having this... dream.

- Pam? Is that... is Pam with you?

- No.

The baby's coming... soon.

She wants it... to be a boy.

She said, "Make it a boy."

Don't leave me, Davey,

I can't go through this again.

I'm sorry, you're going to have to

leave right now, thank you.

- Do we need the doctor?

- No, I think he's gonna be all right.

They can't help him if you

DON'T tell them what happened.

- We were involved in an experiment.

- What kind of an experiment?

It's electronic... deflecting radar so a ship couldn't be

detected at sea... I didn't understand all of it.

You were exposed to an electronic

energy field of some sort?

I think so, but there was something else...

something else happened.

We got caught-up in

this freak thing... just the two of us.

I don't know what it was, but

somehow we got moved in time.

What do you mean?

Time... this now, this time, it's not ours,

we weren't here when it happened.

The experiment took place

on a ship in a Philadelphia Harbor.

It was 1943... October.

Does this sound crazy, ya know,

or is this sort of thing possible now?

What are your memories of 1943?

Are they clear to you?

You think I'm makin' this up?

I didn't say that, I just want you to

describe something in 1943 for me.

I can describe everything!

1943 was yesterday for me!

I'm not doubting you, Mr. Herdeg.

Like hell you're not doubting me,

you don't believe anything I'm sayin'.

David, he's just trying to help.

Hey! Look! I'm not lying! You think I'd make this up?

What the hell would I make it up for?

- Yes.

- Dr. Magnussen, you better come quickly.

- What is it?

- It's the patient in B.

You'll have to excuse me a moment.

That's Jimmy, I know it's Jimmy!

- Give him I.V. valium!

- I've already given him 10 milligrams!

Stand by C.P.R.

- Excuse me, clear the way!

- Come on, let's get that in here.

Clear for the backboard coming in.

Ambu bag coming in.

Try and restrain him so he doesn't hurt himself!

- What the hell is going on here?

- Get some more insulin here.

Get back! Get back! Get back!

Get back.

Don't let anybody touch him!

Oh, my God.

David, what's wrong?

David? David, wait... let me go,

I want to be with him.

Stay away from him, I don't know

what it is, but...

- That's the other one.

- Pick him up!

David?

Where are you going?

- What the heck!

- I got the other elevator.

Security, to 5th floor, stat.

Security, to 5th floor, stat.

- Look, I'm gonna have to take you in.

- I didn't do anything.

- Don't give me any trouble.

- I didn't do anything!

What are you doing?

Look out now! Stop that sh*t!

There he is!

Aw, sh*t!

Up the stairs!

Sorry, sorry.

Come on, God damn it, let's go!

What the hell are you

doing, get outta here!

David! David get in!

- Stop him! God damn it, stop him!

- Who are they?

I don't know, just keep goin'.

What happened to Jimmy?

Does it have to do with the experiment? Is it...

is it some kind of secret thing? Is that it?

For God's sake, David, I'm just trying

to understand! I want to help you!

- Do you know where Santa Paula, California is?

- No.

Is your family there, is that it?

They used to be.

I have to go to Los Angeles anyway...

we'll find it.

Why are you doin' all this, Allison?

I don't know.

All that stuff I told the doctor back there,

did you believe it, believe any of it?

I believe that you believe.

- How's your reading?

- I think there's a malfunction.

I keep getting negative pressure

and it keeps dropping, it's impossible.

No, it's pulling the air in,

it's pulling everything in.

- How?

- We opened up a hole, Barney.

We opened it up and it stayed open.

My God, you can feel it,

you can you feel the energy.

What is described as a freakish low pressure

system continues to stall over Nevada,

leaving thousands virtually cut off

from the rest of the world.

With roads closed, power wires down...

...to one hundred fifty miles

an hour have downed major power lines

leaving hundreds of

families without power...

...personal computer from Digital

with two separate microprocessors.

One for today's jobs,

another for tomorrow.

The Rainbow from Digital Equipment Corporation,

call 1-800-DIGITAL for the store nearest you.

Phone!

- What do you want me to answer first?

- Both!

Both of 'em! Both of 'em!

Hold the line please... thank you.

It's unbelievable out there! Oh, I hid the car

around back, we can rent a new one in the morning.

Oh, I see you found an old movie to watch?

Yeah, it's the only thing I seem

to understand around here.

I got you some magazines and

a change of clothes... I hope they fit.

Hey, ya know, I don't know how I'm gonna

be able to pay you back for all this.
