- 1:20 My control board.
- 1:21 Dr. Sarkin.
- 1:22 You're not gonna let that.
- 1:24 thing out again, are you?
- 1:26 Sunday.
- 1:27 There's work to be done of it.
- 1:28 Might get away like I did last time.
- 1:33 I created it.
- 1:37 I can control it.
- 1:38 or destroy it as I can use.
- 1:42 You whom I have escaped from present.
- 1:45 I can go, but quickly.
- 2:04 I'll see what good it is.
- 2:05 The cops will never let anything like that walk down the street.
- 2:09 What could the police or anybody do against an army like that?
- 2:37 It must be controlled.
- 2:39 We could crush all our...
- 2:41 I'm going to go.
- 2:51 There's a car outside.
- 2:53 That will be my wife.
611 more segments
- 2:55 He wants to take me away.
- 2:57 She's afraid.
- 2:59 What I'm doing here, yes, she knows only a small part of it.
- 3:04 I did so only because he was working along lines contrary to the good of mankind. I know.
- 3:08 We still need to.
- 3:10 I hope I can stop him before it's too late.
- 3:13 I hate to have you face him alone. I don't fear him.
- 3:16 I think you really care for me.
- 3:19 as much as you can't care for anyone.
- 3:21 Except himself.
- 3:25 You're not gonna tell her about the new element you discovered, are you?
- 3:28 Only enough to prove.
- 3:30 I have accomplished what they told me was impossible.
- 3:33 Get me one of the magnified fist cramps.
- 3:35 But if you're determined to face him alone,
- 3:37 I'll wait in there.
- 3:41 But won't your wife make the night, then?
- 3:49 Alex!
- 3:52 And my dear...
- 3:55 You're glad to see me.
- 3:57 Ben.
- 4:01 I've been wanting a witness to my grave crime.
- 4:05 Oh.
- 4:06 Yes.
- 4:07 I told Mallory and the others.
- 4:09 There was a way to induce the state of suspended animation that couldn't be told from death.
- 4:14 But I could find it.
- 4:15 They called me a dreamer, a fool.
- 4:17 But now I have it!
- 4:19 and we should see it, and tell them
- 4:30 You see this disc?
- 4:32 What?
- 4:50 It's good to come to you.
- 4:52 If you go only to that vessel,
- 4:54 which I have put there by the plan.
- 4:56 that this square
- 4:57 magnetized by a positive ray with my new element which is unknown to science.
- 5:03 And this is the spy that carries the negative.
- 5:05 In the two means.
- 5:07 You were told.
- 5:08 See.
- 5:14 Come on.
- 5:24 Oh, Ken!
- 5:25 No, no, it's not that.
- 5:28 Nor would a person be under the same circumstance.
- 5:33 Too bad.
- 5:34 that Mallory is not here,
- 5:37 See my trial.
- 5:39 I have seen it.
- 5:42 You were spying!
- 5:45 All at that if you wish, Alex.
- 5:47 But you made no secret of it.
- 5:48 Now my fear is, what are you going to do with it?
- 5:51 I shall do with it as I wish.
- 5:54 not hand it over to the government.
- 5:56 You would have me.
- 5:57 I still think that would be best.
- 5:59 It should be under control for the good of mankind.
- 6:01 you would still receive credit for its decision.
- 6:03 Discovery?
- 6:04 They would destroy if they could.
- 6:06 but possibly never will I let it go.
- 6:10 I'll bet you're proud of government.
- 6:12 It offered me millions.
- 6:14 perhaps
- 6:15 I shall sell to them.
- 6:17 Don't you realize what a terrific weapon it would be in the hands of unscrupulous people?
- 6:21 Of course.
- 6:22 That is why they shall pay me dearly for it.
- 6:25 Alex, you must not.
- 6:27 Then it is my duty to inform the government at once.
- 6:30 Alex, please!
- 6:37 All right.
- 6:38 If it is you...
- 6:39 duty.
- 6:41 Do so by all means.
- 6:43 But you will find it a great mistake.
- 6:47 What do you mean?
- 6:50 You shall soon learn.
- 6:52 All of you.
- 6:56 I am.
- 6:59 Monk!
- 7:01 - Mom!
- 7:03 Get the division line.
- 7:07 Did you carry out my instructions regarding the work to be done on this?
- 7:11 Yes, sir.
- 7:12 I strengthened the ionizer, but I was afraid to use it.
- 7:14 I'm not afraid.
- 7:16 They think they know everything that I have.
- 7:19 But they know nothing of this divisualizer that will conceal me from my enemies.
- 7:24 I'll stay here tonight.
- 7:26 Perhaps I can see him again.
- 7:29 I'm persuaded from his mad cause.
- 7:32 And I'll get in touch with the government.
- 7:34 I've already talked with Captain West of the War Department about Alex.
- 7:37 They won't punish him, will they? No, Ann. They'll just keep him and what he has found under control so that he can't misuse it.
- 7:43 Well, dispose of it.
- 7:44 to a country that would.
- 7:46 Oh, my God.
- 8:05 You have to...
- 8:06 Failed monk.
- 8:11 But I will not fail.
- 8:15 I'll call if I need you.
- 8:18 Good night, Ann.
- 8:19 Good night.
- 8:31 Hit it.
- 8:31 Perfect.
- 8:32 Mr. Schatzel.
- 8:33 But can you come back?
- 8:37 much.
- 8:37 Come back.
- 8:48 And now...
- 8:49 Phantom, there is nothing that I cannot do.
- 9:05 How many?
- 9:17 Mallory speaking.
- 9:19 Yes, sir.
- 9:20 The place seems to be deserted.
- 9:22 I'll come right out there as soon as I get a call I'm waiting for.
- 9:25 Yes, Captain West of the Army Intelligence.
- 9:28 I'll start as soon as he phones me.
- 9:30 All right.
- 9:31 Don't worry.
- 9:33 Much depends on...
- 9:35 What happened in this house today?
- 9:39 for a great
- 9:41 and lifting the bed.
- 9:46 I'm going to go.
- 9:58 Ah.
- 10:00 Probably mildly.
- 10:05 Good morning, Adam.
- 10:06 I'm so glad you got here. Captain West arrived yet?
- 10:10 No, how could he? Climb down, but I'm surprised to find him here.
- 10:17 That must be far west. The government's plane. They are closing in.
- 10:24 They will find nothing.
- 10:28 I have to change my appearance.
- 10:31 Maybe you'd better stay here and keep an eye on the plane, Jim. Okay.
- 10:40 Captain West, is it true that Dr. Zorka has disappeared?
- 10:44 Oh.
- 10:45 Well, do you think it's fair for you to know my name and I don't know yours? I'm Jean Drew.
- 10:50 Well, what are you doing here?
- 10:51 The Times sent me. Too low, we can less than the next question. Sorry, but I'm not allowed to answer any questions.
- 10:58 Do you mind if I go to the house with you? Yes, I mind very much.
- 11:03 You and I better take a little walk, sister.
- 11:05 I don't believe I've met you. Miss Drew, allow me to present Mr. Jim Daley. You'll find him very good company.
- 11:18 From what you say, Dr. Zucker has discovered something very important. I'm sure he has. Highly dangerous, too.
- 11:24 Think what a hostile power could do with it.
- 11:26 Have you, uh...
- 11:27 Made any search for it?
- 11:28 No, we thought we'd better wait till you got here.
- 11:31 Well, that's looking in his laboratory.
- 11:33 You're gonna take that dish?
- 11:35 I'll get it later. I'd hate to have one of those spiders find in my pocket.
- 11:41 Fools, fools! Let them search. They will find nothing.
- 12:00 A lot of equipment seems to have been moved.
- 12:03 You can talk to Rankine of Aspiring. I will be with you. But...
- 12:06 On scene.
- 12:09 That one smokes a popular brand.
- 12:14 But it doesn't.
- 12:15 can't stand the back
- 12:17 How about his assistant? He hasn't.
- 12:20 He's right. So far as we know, Zorka worked alone.
- 12:27 Let me go, Lyle.
- 12:29 Then we will go.
- 12:36 We must be more careful than ever.
- 12:39 that no one discovers the engines of our secret garage.
- 12:42 Let's go.
- 12:45 Oh, my God.
- 12:51 Well, I'll phone headquarters and have a description broadcast.
- 12:53 He'll be picked up somewhere, that is, if he still answers his own description.
- 13:00 All clear.
- 13:01 Then we will go to meet the agent of the spy ring.
- 13:06 The last scene...
- 13:08 You wore striped trousers.
- 13:10 Back foreign hand tie and cut away coat.
- 13:12 No car that we know of.
- 13:15 But it would take one to carry the things that are missing in this laboratory.
- 13:18 Yes, that's right.
- 13:20 Put this on the cell stack right away with it.
- 13:22 Pick up that man. What do you mean? Give him a ride? Yes. He looks as I used to. He might be useful to me.
- 13:38 Come, get in.
- 13:52 The man is dead. How fortunate. That simplifies everything. We will make it seem that it is the famous Dr. Zorko has been killed.
- 14:22 Then we will get another car, go home, and see what they are doing there.
- 14:34 Webb speaking.
- 14:38 Right, I've got it. We'll fly right down there. The car found Rex and Byrne on Highway 10, 50 miles north of here. The body in it.
- 14:47 Sometimes there's a pocket to negate it to Dr. Zorka.
- 14:49 Identification is important.
- 14:53 You go with it?
- 14:56 You're asking too much, Captain Westbath. You're such a shock. I'll go. I'll go.
- 15:00 I must not.
- 15:02 What the water?
- 15:03 He's going to form up the plane with us, Jim.
- 15:05 Whenever you're ready, Mrs. Zorka.
- 15:36 They are taking my wife to identify the body we left at the car.
- 15:40 If you know it, it's not mine.
- 15:41 Can't you stop them by...
- 15:43 She is one of my disciples.
- 15:45 and she does not know it.
- 15:46 I have just time enough to put that spider into a plane.
- 15:52 She'll go into suspended animation
- 15:55 so that she cannot identify the dead man.
- 15:57 Then I will take her from them and revive her.
- 16:01 Now get the car, that's it. Quick.
- 16:02 We have to be there as soon as the plane arrives.
- 16:14 Couldn't take long I'll take the lab equipment and try to figure out this what's missing. Bye. Bye.
- 16:36 Is there something in there with that door? I'm sure I shut it. Doesn't look to me as if you did. This wasn't in my bag when I left the house. That's the same kind of disc that was found under the plant. The one the spider went. Are you certain it wasn't in your bag before? Positive. Let me see it, will you? I haven't seen one of those things yet. Hold on, will you, Jim? I want to send it back to the department. Are you sure you didn't?
- 17:06 Find it and take it as part of a keepsake? Why, of course I didn't.
- 17:13 Tell me, from where the car was found, have you any idea where Dr. Durga was going? None what it is. Damn, what happened?
- 17:25 What are you doing here?
- 17:36 Pay it out!
- 17:48 - Get another shoe. - Yes, Papa.
- 18:19 This is Zerka!
- 18:28 This is Zerka!
- 18:35 Faster! Faster! You must get...
- 18:43 Stop!
- 18:53 Get over there!
- 19:06 - Help me, please. I'm all tangled up. - One moment, madam. Monk.
- 19:09 Help her down. A plane crashed. What plane?
- 19:15 Who was in it?
- 19:16 There's a government plane. Two men and another woman.
- 19:19 I'm a red supporter. I've got to get to that wreck.
- 19:23 Come.
- 19:25 I'm a doctor.
- 19:26 I will take you there.
- 19:41 Okay, buddy. There's an ambulance on the way.
- 19:44 I'll make a complete report later. - Yes, 30 people away, will you? - All right, get back. - Beaver, just a minute. - Get back. Come on. - I'll hang a little bit. - Help. Good going.
- 19:55 - Come here. - Come here.
- 20:02 - Where are you, Merlin? - I'm a physician.
- 20:04 Okay.
- 20:11 Oh, my God.
- 20:17 I
- 20:19 All the...
- 20:30 Woman is dead.
- 20:41 Captain Wells, my paper would like an official statement from you. What were you doing in that plane? Following you to get a story.
- 20:47 What do you make of him, Doctor?
- 20:49 I find no bodily injury.
- 20:53 The man seemed to be in a coma. That's right. He collapsed suddenly at the control. The ambulance is coming. Take this girl away. Come on, lady. Captain West, I want to know the connection between this plane crash and Dr. Zorka's death. Unless you tell me... All right, arrest her. Leave go of me. You can't arrest me without a charge. The charger was throwing away in a government plane. Come on.
- 21:13 You can't do this to me. No, I can't, but he can.
- 21:46 Watch me! Watch me! Come on, Bobby! Watch me!
- 21:53 He's really dead.
- 21:55 You knew that, Doctor. You saw her.
- 21:57 Mallory.
- 21:59 and all the so-called scientists who drove me into hiding
- 22:03 They are responsible for the best.
- 22:05 They shall pay.
- 22:08 Forget it, Doc.
- 22:09 You can sell out to Rankin and his crowd for millions and get out of the country.
- 22:13 No.
- 22:20 Send this message in code to all our allied foreign operators.
- 22:25 as a disguise for our spiring operations.
- 22:28 All code messages henceforth will be sent from our international school of languages.
- 22:44 Well, did you get Zorka's formula?
- 22:47 She's not placed a guard around Zarka's house.
- 22:49 We haven't been able to answer. You've got to get him.
- 22:52 Or finds Zorka's assistant monk.
- 22:54 I'm about to broadcast a recording to our friends in Europe, informing them of Zucker's death.
- 22:58 It is necessary to share a very vital secret analogy.
- 23:04 the hiding place of the source of all my power.
- 23:07 The source?
- 23:13 They go ding.
- 23:14 During my absence?
- 23:17 You would be able to remove it to a safer place.
- 23:30 There he's...
- 23:31 power enough to see him.
- 23:32 or destroy the war.
- 23:35 And who we are?
- 23:36 I know how to release.
- 23:38 and control it.
- 23:54 Must be kept insulated.
- 23:56 It would be fated to open it.
- 23:58 Bless the presence of these protective fumes.
- 24:02 - I, this guy.
- 24:12 Where?
- 24:12 Where did it come from?
- 24:17 part of a matter I
- 24:18 that fell in Africa centuries ago.
- 24:22 years of research.
- 24:24 Let me to the belly.
- 24:26 Some great force akin to raid you.
- 24:29 Leave that is there.
- 24:31 I organized a secret expedition.
- 24:33 Appended only by ignorant natives.
- 24:40 Get out!
- 24:42 It took me three years to find the place the Nigerite fell. I suffered untold torture
- 24:51 before I found a way to insulate myself from the magnetic and chemical activity of the element contained in the meteorite. I risked my health, my life to get it, and to compound with it an other force of my own discovery that made it the greatest power on earth. Now why shouldn't I use it as I wish?
- 25:14 even to conquer the world.
- 25:17 Sorry, ma'am.
- 25:19 if it is ever necessary for you to move that box.
- 25:23 Do not open it.
- 25:26 to wield that.
- 25:27 fast.
- 25:37 You will remain here on guard.
- 25:50 pulse is increasing, getting stronger with every beat.
- 25:53 Come on.
- 26:11 You passed out because you had the discipline.
- 26:13 Planted on Anzirka.
- 26:15 Who'd want to destroy her?
- 26:17 I don't know.
- 26:20 Can I take this along in Zorcha's laboratory? It might lead you somewhere.
- 26:22 Presently.
- 26:23 I'll attempt an analysis of what is on that disc. It might lead directly to Zorka's secret.
- 26:29 Good luck. Come on.
- 26:33 Okay.
- 26:37 - Now he's handed those shirts from the Zorka disc.
- 26:40 I hope we can get enough other information so that we can crack this case wide open. Yeah, before it cracks us.
- 26:50 Now I can just get this formula.
- 26:53 Properly recorded.
- 27:00 *Ding*
- 27:09 What's the matter, Dr. Valerie? Oh, perhaps it was...
- 27:16 Fumes and the liquid, but it comes with no reversal.
- 27:19 Hands at my throat.
- 27:21 Huh?
- 27:22 Huh?
- 27:23 Oh, my God.
- 27:45 Come on.
- 28:09 Amen.
- 28:09 All right.
- 28:11 Why do we always have to get here just...
- 28:12 - The sun is.
- 28:14 Those long shadows get on your nerves, eh, Jim?
- 28:16 I hoped to turn you around this place.
- 28:18 Well, let's see what this can sign for us.
- 28:20 Yeah.
- 28:21 Watch after Spiders.
- 28:39 Needle almost jumped off the dial here.
- 28:42 Must be another test around. Close.
- 28:44 Come on.
- 28:57 Well, not so strong here.
- 29:17 Now it's stronger.
- 29:19 This way, Jim.
- 29:41 Not so strong here.
- 29:45 Come on.
- 29:49 No, it's stronger.
- 29:54 Hey!
- 30:00 What was that?
- 30:03 The armada got so hot it burned my hand. I went to touch that box and went up and smoked.
- 30:06 There's something pretty hot in there. Don't open that. I'll leave Dr. Mallory open it.
- 30:10 Yes, you're right. Well, we'll take him to headquarters first.
- 30:13 Come on.
- 30:15 I'm going to try to open this thing.
- 30:25 What's the matter, Bob? Can't you make it? No, not yet. Maybe it's just as well after what happened to that neometer.
- 30:35 Oh.
- 30:36 Hey, Bob. What's the matter with this car? The engine stopped running. Plenty of gas.
- 30:44 Hey, Bob, look!
- 30:53 Run it down, Greg. Keep it rolling.
- 31:00 We all get floated a bit.
- 31:36 Who who was it?
- 31:44 I sure did. 130,000 votes. That's what wrecked us when I pulled that gadget on the box. Oh, that was a close one. I better see if the box is still there. Man, I'm going after that guy who's picked up in Zorka's lab. Now, this is no time for manhunter. It's more important we get that mystery box to the federal lab for an analysis. Go up the whole city? I guess you're right. We'll take it back to Mallory's house. We'll be safer there.
- 32:14 We're not the only survivors. The box is still here.
- 32:44 Oh, my God.
- 33:14 You can't get far with that.
- 33:23 There's much going on here. You fellas trying to electrocute yourselves. Who's driving that car? Take it easy.
- 33:54 Fuck
- 33:56 Come on.
- 34:18 Monk!
- 34:19 Believe you, the monk is gone.
- 34:32 I still have you.
- 34:39 You will be the instrument of my vengeance.
- 34:54 So you decided to come back, did you? The settlement broke in, they carried me off. They stole the meteor. You're lying. I left you on guard and you betrayed me. You've sold the force of my power to my enemies. No, I swear it! Then why did you remove that box from the secret box? I heard voices. I thought strangers were coming to steal it. I shall show you what happens to those
- 35:17 Oh, gross me.
- 35:25 No, don't let him get me.
- 35:31 I've won't let him. I'm shot. I swear I'm not lying. Look!
- 35:47 It's alright. I'm going to remove that bullet. Then you will tell me what happened. Come.
- 36:09 Put out your sleeve.
- 36:39 - Steve, take your arm out.
- 36:44 He says nothing.
- 36:45 Not a thing!
- 36:47 Payless, Sergeant.
- 36:50 This.
- 36:50 and a thousand greater powers are possible with the Seeker Palaman.
- 36:56 Now the source of it is gone.
- 36:59 They shall not keep it.
- 37:03 No government shall possess my power.
- 37:06 I know where Bob has taken my meteors.
- 37:09 But I can't go, would you?
- 37:11 They know me now. If I'm taken, they'll throw me back into Alcatraz.
- 37:15 You can make yourself invisible.
- 37:17 The Phantom will continue to protect you.
- 37:28 According to this Neometer, we are close to my element.
- 38:55 Now the car. There's no mistake about it. I was alone in that laboratory with the guy.
- 39:15 He collapsed and while I was trying to see what had happened to him, the meteorite disappeared.
- 39:19 What do you mean, disappeared? It was gone. The door which had been locked on the outside was open.
- 39:25 I guess I better run over and look that place over.
- 39:27 I'll see you at Gorkers later.
- 39:31 All right.
- 39:33 Have you any idea how the meteorite was removed, Doctor?
- 39:37 None that will hold water.
- 39:39 It was physically impossible for anyone to enter that room without my seeing.
- 39:42 I beg your pardon sir, but you know Dr. Zorka was a very evil man.
- 39:47 It might persist even after the death of the body, and return to continue its, shall we say, prestigious work. Ghosts don't carry heavy boxes around, Perkins.
- 39:58 Hey.
- 40:00 Suppose Drucker isn't there. If he were alive, he would be seen and... Not necessarily.
- 40:05 One thing Zorka hoped to do was to perfect what he called a
- 40:09 to visualize her. Oh, that's impossible.
- 40:11 In the scientific world, nothing is impossible.
- 40:14 Just as there are sound waves pitched too high or too low for the human ear,
- 40:18 So there are light waves too intense for the human eye.
- 40:21 that might be directed to envelop a human body and make it
- 40:25 Invisible. Now that you have it again, we'd both better get out of here. The G-men are guarding the place.
- 40:31 If they find this secret room... If they do, I have means of the invisible. Here. This little device contains an invisible guide.
- 40:40 Did you get the plan they asked you for? Yes, sir.
- 40:53 - Pull it on the table. - Yes, sir.
- 41:09 Now this is the first step.
- 41:12 It doesn't seem to be doing anything to the plant.
- 41:16 And the second step...
- 41:19 is my Z-ray. Any living thing impregnated
- 41:28 with this invisible gas, dies under the sea ray. - You mean the human beings? - Oh, man first could go into a deep coma.
- 41:39 And then...
- 41:43 That would stop one or two men, but more would keep coming. You seem to forget our rider man.
- 41:55 We're going to inspect the house. Lieutenant Daly arrives, send him in. Keep everyone else out.
- 42:04 Come on, come on, Garth.
- 42:28 Oh.
- 42:28 Yes.
- 42:44 He has a new armada.
- 42:45 Close the vault!
- 43:17 I'm going to go.
- 43:54 Oh.
- 43:59 Captain West inside the house. All right, keep this woman here. Say, wait a minute, I've got to get in there. I've got to right here. Keep her here if you have to tie her.
- 44:07 Come on.
- 44:48 One by one my enemies will be disposed of. Until I must stop the universe.
- 44:55 Someone else is coming. We must find our robots.
- 45:29 I'm going to go.
- 45:35 Ugh.
- 45:36 Fuck!
- 45:37 First.
- 45:38 - Hold it. - Hold it.
- 45:48 so
- 45:51 He's coming through. He's coming through. He's here.
- 45:57 Well, my invisible gas and the Z-ray will take care of him and the others.
- 46:02 Get them.
- 46:08 All right.
- 46:20 Oh, my God.
- 46:33 Oh
- 46:52 Being a common state of that were so.
- 46:55 If you kill them,
- 46:56 Police are traced from here.
- 46:58 You could escape with your shadow belt, but I was done for it.
- 47:00 Just head me back down to try it.
- 47:03 That is where you belong.
- 47:29 You let this condenser loose.
- 47:36 Some more of you characters.
- 47:45 Bob!
- 47:46 Wow!
- 47:47 What was it? What happened? Iron Man.
- 47:50 You tagged me. There's no one here but us who's in it, Bailey.
- 48:05 Captain West must have dreamed that Iron Man.
- 48:09 You know what he was talking about, all right.
- 48:20 I am free, Dr. Snogger. I am stronger than you now.
- 48:24 Stronger than the police. You'll never make a slave out of me again.
- 49:07 Wouldn't surprise me a bit if Dr. Zorka did have some kind of mechanical man hidden here. Well, we'll find out soon enough. Let's get him over to Dr. Mallory's right away.
- 49:22 You traitor!
- 49:26 You didn't know that you too had been sprayed with my invisible gas.
- 49:30 Get up on your feet. You belong to me. You can never escape me. Go. Get him to Mallory's. I'll follow in my car.
- 50:00 I'm going to go.
- 50:24 They're gone.
- 50:27 Okay.
- 50:30 Do you see what you treachery has cost me? They'll come back! They know what you have here! They'll ransack the police and they'll find me! They will not find you nor my need for eyes. It's changing headquarters today. Going prepared for all my restoration materials.
- 50:54 I had not suspended animation, only a slight concussion. He'll be all right in a little while.
- 50:58 in the rental office near the department of military intelligence. I shall operate as Dr. Zane.
- 51:10 I found just the kind of office you want. Is it a good voice to protect my meteorite? Yeah, and it's on the same floor as the International School of Language. Oh, the language school. The spy's headquarter, huh?
- 51:28 I am them also. We will move in at once.
- 51:35 We must insulate our new vault
- 51:38 So let my meteorite shall be just the same here as it was in my secret laboratory.
- 51:42 Cops.
- 51:52 Perfect insulation.
- 51:54 enough to protect my most powerful devices.
- 52:06 The report just came in from the camera.
- 52:10 This is the neometer.
- 52:13 An instrument that reacts in the presence of magnetized or radiized substances. Say, that's just a thing we need to locate Dr. Zorka's mysterious box.
- 52:24 Hold on with it.
- 52:26 The speed was going a mile a minute.
- 52:43 Monk's in there. We better mask before we go in.
- 52:49 Monk? You must be entirely moved by the army.
- 52:55 Monk.
- 52:57 Who do you want?
- 52:58 It ain't Monk. Whoever it is, he's got the stuff for after.
- 53:03 Come on, I'll spill it. Where's that box? I don't know what you're talking about.
- 53:08 That's a pretty good disguise, Monk. But you're gonna tell us where that box is getting? I don't know. You're lying.
- 53:16 Man! Ball!
- 53:21 Man!
- 53:22 Come on, get out of here. Get out of here. Get out of here. This is the stuff we want, all right. Now you get going. I'll lock this guy and Monk in the vault until we can get back.
- 53:56 Let me out!
- 53:57 Where have you?
- 54:01 - Chuck, Captain.
- 54:02 Doctor's doctor!
- 54:04 Doctor! Doctor! My meteorite!
- 54:10 Where is it? Go! We're locked in with Zubacame! No, no one is going to die.
- 54:21 Protecting my enemies. Stand back.
- 54:25 Science and genius combined. There's nothing that can withstand its power.
- 54:41 Get out.
- 54:48 Get out.
- 54:49 Who were those men?
- 54:51 They sounded like spies, but their faces were strange. Masks. How did they find us? They had been in the oven, a little. They couldn't have, unless you gave it to them. Well, they must have stolen it from Mallory. In any event, the hands are in here. Start setting. I'm convinced that Dr. Zorka's still alive.
- 55:14 operating from some hidden part of the top.
- 55:17 The robot was manipulated by someone. I don't remember Dr. Zorka ever referring to a robot during the time we were associated.
- 55:23 But there were many things he kept secret from me. Well, that's for us to find out.
- 55:29 They have my meteor, but not all of them. Come.
- 55:57 So
- 56:00 Do it now.
- 56:01 It would mean to destroy my meteorites.
- 56:05 That I had to get back first.
- 56:14 I'll go with you.
- 56:16 No!
- 56:17 Stay here.
- 56:23 This is work.
- 56:24 for the time some
- 56:26 alone.
- 56:33 Right, I've got it. We'll be on our way in a minute.
- 56:35 Be sure and keep Zucker's lead, Hubbard.
- 56:37 Yeah, goodbye.
- 56:40 Headquarters report that the Phantom Radio is broadcasting this mysterious code again.
- 56:43 The Federal Trust find a locator.
- 56:45 If we make it snappy, we can find the truck and if there's any of the state makes it.
- 56:48 He said I could be in on the finish. Sure, I'm hoping this will be it.
- 57:11 And point for.
- 57:12 Harbor
- 57:14 Two, one, zero.
- 57:16 Urgent.
- 57:35 One, zero. Turning, three, four, six. Batalha moon.
- 57:41 Nine-seven.
- 57:43 Atlantic! What's wrong? What is it? The Federal radio truck is only four blocks away. It's heading in this direction. Well, they can't attack me, Mr. Koudan.
- 57:52 Maybe not, but they can trace from where it's coming from.
- 57:55 I must finish it.
- 57:57 Our only chance of getting out of the country is by submarines.
- 58:01 The prince has got a supply box.
- 58:02 Okay, make a snappy.
- 58:04 Continue.
- 58:06 or free Pacific.
- 58:09 Captain West.
- 58:39 - Random radio is in this block somewhere, Captain. The estimates prove that. - Phone for more men. Have them surround the block. We'll search every building in this neighborhood if necessary, Captain. We'll cover as much as we can to help arrive. Jim, you take that seat. Come on, Jim. - Two, one, zero.
- 58:52 Urgent!
- 59:09 Federal, touch stop at the corner. Captain West just met it. These old cars parked in the alley. Come.
- 59:51 They go through those five now
- 59:55 We have to get after the legs got the car one of the other voices got here his cards around the corner
- 1:00:00 I'll take it you stay here and find the radio location. All right. Stay here and look out. Let me drive in case you have to do any shooting. All right. Don't want to be in on the finish. Even if it is your own.
- 1:01:00 Go ahead, but no more cars are coming through before the blast. Thanks.
- 1:01:30 All right, touch her off with a fuse, Mike. Okay.
- 1:02:00 Is that a barricade across the road?
- 1:02:19 Yes, but it may be a trick to stop and keep going.
- 1:02:46 That should finish, Captain West.
- 1:03:04 Well, job of driving. We can still get those birds. Let's go.
- 1:03:18 We got through. Back to the car.
- 1:03:31 Our car is running wild.
- 1:03:35 Dark. Invisible. We can't stop him. I have a better plan. Get out your man.
- 1:04:05 What about the hole?
- 1:04:07 Yeah.
- 1:04:08 Put him out.
- 1:04:09 Stay there, my friend. We need you.
- 1:04:16 Damn it.
- 1:04:17 Thought I'd recognize your hand in this.
- 1:04:19 Been after you for a long time.
- 1:04:21 Come on.
- 1:04:22 Get up.
- 1:04:27 She thinks he's a mass model too. Nice work, Gene.
- 1:04:33 All right, Jarvis.
- 1:04:35 What'd you do with Zarka's meteorite? We haven't got it. Zarka's talking for me.
- 1:04:38 What am I offered if I took?
- 1:04:41 Ten years or more in a federal prison, but you don't have to talk.
- 1:04:44 Your partner here told me all I want to know. Now get in the car. You drive, please.
- 1:05:00 Yes, Jim, throw a ring of men around Zorka's place. Better have them equipped with gas masks. Remember, you're dealing with an invisible force. Right, I'll see you there. See? You've been told about holding that to me. Now you can go to town. Warn everybody. You mean I can go to the whole story? Right, shoot the horse. Well, I'm telling them.
- 1:05:25 This time I think I've got it, Bob. You mean to make sort of visible in spite of its invisible, is it? That's exactly what I mean.
- 1:05:39 That's the way Zorka makes himself invisible. Now we will dissolve the aura of invisibility and disclose what it hides. Perkins the ray gun.
- 1:06:02 That's it. This will be correct. Now we can deal with that. The.
- 1:06:17 Now.
- 1:06:21 Another. Quickly.
- 1:06:23 Now.
- 1:06:26 I need enough to destroy the world if they force me to it.
- 1:06:35 Listen.
- 1:06:43 Quiet!
- 1:06:47 Anything new, Parker? Not yet, Lieutenant. Sergeant, spread your men along this side.
- 1:06:56 Hey! You hear that?
- 1:06:58 Purple Peters men will take care of the other side.
- 1:07:01 Oh, my God.
- 1:07:06 Yeah.
- 1:07:28 - Come on.
- 1:07:59 Now if they're doing any shooting...
- 1:08:01 I'll be with you anyhow.
- 1:08:07 I'm sorry.
- 1:08:30 The plan all set up, Captain. I've spent four men inside with masks. All right, I'll follow them. Take care of masks, soldier.
- 1:08:39 You stay outside.
- 1:08:41 Look out!
- 1:09:11 I'm going to get away.
- 1:09:41 They who do the hammer. The soldiers out there, they'll get me. I take care of them with the sea rays.
- 1:10:11 Come on.
- 1:11:10 Two of the soldiers are out there.
- 1:11:13 Come on.
- 1:11:54 Brick now, the airport.
- 1:12:22 Get an ambulance, Jim. These men have to be gotten to Dr. Mallory at once.
- 1:13:00 Hey, can you fly a plane? Sure I can. Nobody's flying today. Why not? Government ordered. All planes are grounded. Hey, don't you read the papers?
- 1:13:39 Yeah, by plane to see right
- 1:13:41 Thanks again. That's what it's a grab the plane. What a man with a must be mom. Come on.
- 1:14:11 Hey!
- 1:15:11 - There they are, two parts to the right.
- 1:15:41 ships and planes. Rocket plane eight miles off Devil's Point, heading for the Navy Anchorage.
- 1:16:19 I could bring him down with a machine gun. No, don't shoot. If you have the meteorite, you'll blow us all out of the sky.
- 1:16:28 They've hurt me!
- 1:16:32 And I take them with me! All of them! Put down the down! I've been out, sir!
- 1:16:41 I'll give up first.
- 1:16:52 Lock and throw. - And follow him down. - Down. - Go up. - Nice.
- 1:17:29 I have brought you here to advise you.
- 1:17:31 that I have recommended you in the orders of the day.
- 1:17:35 and have recommended to the president that you be awarded the medal for distinguished service.
- 1:17:42 I think Gene should get bosom medals, Bob.
- 1:17:44 She earned them.
- 1:17:46 It's really difficult.
- 1:17:47 I had a job for a good reporter this week.
- 1:17:49 press untimely news.
- 1:17:52 I assure you, Miss Drew,
- 1:17:54 on behalf of
- 1:17:54 of the United States and myself.
- 1:17:57 Your efforts in this case are deeply appreciated. Thank you.
- 1:18:03 Can I print that? This time? Yes.
