Monocane is a terrible drug. I never heard of it. You wouldn't, Kemp. It's never used now....
Something wrong with the clip?

Dr. Cranley:
Monocane is a terrible drug.
Dr. Kemp:
I never heard of it.
Dr. Cranley:
You wouldn't, Kemp. It's never used now. I didn't know it was even made. It's a drug that's made from a flower that's grown in India. It draws color from everything it touches. Years ago they tried it for bleaching cloth. They gave it up because it destroyed the material.
Dr. Kemp:
That doesn't sound very terrible.
Dr. Cranley:
Yes, I know, but it does something else, Kemp. It was tried out on some poor animal - a dog, I believe. It was injected under the skin, and it turned the dog dead white, like a marble statue.
Dr. Kemp:
Is that so?
Dr. Cranley:
Yes, and it also sent it raving mad.
Dr. Kemp:
You surely don't think...
Dr. Cranley:
I only pray to God that Griffin hasn't been meddling with this ghastly stuff.
Dr. Kemp:
He'd never touch a thing with madness in it.
Dr. Cranley:
He might not know. I found that experiment in an old German book, just by chance. The English books only describe the bleaching power. They were printed BEFORE the German experiment.

Monocaine's a terrible drug.
00:00:04.092 --> 00:00:05.967
I never heard of it.
00:00:06.004 --> 00:00:08.122
You wouldn't, Kemp.
It's never used now.
00:00:08.002 --> 00:00:10.168
I didn't know
it was even made.
00:00:10.024 --> 00:00:13.847
It's a drug that's made from a
flower that's grown in India.
00:00:13.092 --> 00:00:16.004
It draws color from
everything it touches.
00:00:16.052 --> 00:00:19.033
Years ago they tried it
for bleaching cloth.
00:00:19.044 --> 00:00:22.001
They gave it up because
it destroyed the material.
00:00:22.016 --> 00:00:24.001
That doesn't
sound terrible.
00:00:24.998 --> 00:00:26.765
Yes, I know. But it does
something else, Kemp.
00:00:26.084 --> 00:00:29.844
It was tried out on some poor animal...
A dog, I believe.
00:00:29.092 --> 00:00:31.922
It was injected
under the skin,
00:00:32.999 --> 00:00:34.001
and it turned
the dog dead white
00:00:34.036 --> 00:00:36.169
like a marble statue.
00:00:36.044 --> 00:00:37.726
Is that so?
00:00:37.008 --> 00:00:40.246
Yes, and it also
sent it raving mad.
00:00:40.032 --> 00:00:41.765
You surely
don't think...
00:00:41.084 --> 00:00:45.097
I only pray to God that Griffin hasn't
been meddling with this ghastly stuff.
00:00:46.999 --> 00:00:47.883
He'd never touch a thing
with madness in it.
00:00:47.096 --> 00:00:49.979
He might not know.
00:00:49.998 --> 00:00:52.402
I found that experiment in an old
German book, just by chance.
00:00:52.048 --> 00:00:54.096
The English books only
described the bleaching power.
00:00:55.999 --> 00:00:57.122
They were printed before
the German experiment.
00:00:57.002 --> 00:00:58.077
What are we
going to do, Doctor?
00:00:58.084 --> 00:01:02.089
I think we must tell the police
that Griffin's disappeared.
00:01:03.084 --> 00:01:06.127
But only that
he's disappeared.
00:01:06.044 --> 00:01:10.003
I put you on your honor, Kemp, not
to breathe a word of this to anyone.
00:01:18.006 --> 00:01:19.069
Shall I go down to the
police station with you?
00:01:19.001 --> 00:01:23.001
It's all right, Kemp. I'll go tonight
when Inspector Lane's on duty.
00:01:23.998 --> 00:01:25.401
I'll run along
back home, then.
00:01:27.999 --> 00:01:28.241
Good night.
00:01:28.036 --> 00:01:29.361
Good night, Kemp.
00:01:32.999 --> 00:01:34.242
(PIANO PLAYING ON RADIO)
00:02:00.001 --> 00:02:02.364
MAN: (OVER RADIO)
This is the national station
00:02:02.044 --> 00:02:04.001
broadcasting
this evening's news.
00:02:04.999 --> 00:02:06.807
Remarkable story
from country village.
00:02:06.092 --> 00:02:09.571
Police and doctors are
investigating an astonishing story
00:02:09.999 --> 00:02:12.012
told this afternoon by the
people of the village of Iping.
00:02:12.028 --> 00:02:14.999
It appears that a mysterious
disease has broken out
00:02:14.084 --> 00:02:17.997
infecting a large number
of the inhabitants.
00:02:17.012 --> 00:02:18.001
It takes
the form of a delusion
00:02:18.999 --> 00:02:21.012
that an invisible man
is living among them.
00:02:21.999 --> 00:02:23.001
Several people
have been seriously injured,
00:02:23.001 --> 00:02:25.999
probably through
fighting among themselves
00:02:25.001 --> 00:02:28.001
in the belief the their
opponent is an invisible man.
00:02:28.001 --> 00:02:31.524
The whole village is in a state
of panic, and everyone...
00:02:31.999 --> 00:02:34.126
JACK: And everyone deserves the
fate that's coming to them.
00:02:34.001 --> 00:02:36.846
Panic, death,
things worse than death.
00:02:37.999 --> 00:02:41.999
Don't be afraid, Kemp.
It's me, Griffin.
00:02:41.001 --> 00:02:44.804
Jack Griffin.
How are you, my friend?
00:02:45.001 --> 00:02:46.001
(SHIVERING)
00:02:46.999 --> 00:02:48.001
I'm frozen with cold.
00:02:48.999 --> 00:02:51.001
Dead tired.
Thank God for a fire.
