At 00:00:24,300, Character said: Good evening.

2
At 00:00:25,720, Character said: This object, which looks like a
gentleman who innocently wandered into a

3
At 00:00:31,740, Character said: Cross bandaging class, is a mummy.

4
At 00:00:35,540, Character said: This particular one is an Egyptian
pharaoh and was buried with all his

5
At 00:00:42,040, Character said: wives, a rather extreme example of
togetherness.

6
At 00:00:46,420, Character said: A few of his more progressive colleagues
subscribe to this custom.

7
At 00:00:52,680, Character said: but with a difference.

8
At 00:00:54,320, Character said: They buried their wives first, promising
to follow at their earliest

9
At 00:00:59,800, Character said: convenience.

10
At 00:01:01,780, Character said: Appropriately enough, the title of
tonight's theatre piece is Museum Piece.

11
At 00:01:08,000, Character said: First, however, we have an item with no
title, but perhaps after watching it,

12
At 00:01:13,180, Character said: you can think of a name to call it.

13
At 00:01:30,960, Character said: As near as we can tell, this skull
belonged to a civilization here in the

14
At 00:01:35,020, Character said: southwest that we call Proto Pueblo.

15
At 00:01:38,080, Character said: Now, one of its marks, as you see, is a
flattening of the head at the rear

16
At 00:01:42,240, Character said: caused by strapping the baby onto a
cradle board before the skull was

17
At 00:01:47,320, Character said: calcified.

18
At 00:01:48,800, Character said: Let's compare him with a modern male
Caucasian.

19
At 00:01:53,940, Character said: You see, his head is not flattened in
the back at all.

20
At 00:01:58,800, Character said: Now, this is essentially...

21
At 00:02:00,670, Character said: A present -day American, very much like
you and I.

22
At 00:02:05,170, Character said: Grim thought, isn't it?

23
At 00:02:07,390, Character said: Well, that concludes the tour, ladies
and gentlemen.

24
At 00:02:10,130, Character said: It's about time to close anyway.

25
At 00:02:12,650, Character said: You're welcome.

26
At 00:02:17,250, Character said: Thank you very much. Do come again.
We're getting in new things all the

27
At 00:02:21,710, Character said: Good day.

28
At 00:02:23,050, Character said: Good day. Thank you for coming.

29
At 00:02:54,000, Character said: Don't let me keep you. Not at all.

30
At 00:02:55,920, Character said: I'll be leaving in a minute. Take your
time.

31
At 00:02:58,660, Character said: These knives fascinate me.

32
At 00:03:01,160, Character said: Obsidian, aren't they? That's right.
Purely utilitarian. For skinning hides,

33
At 00:03:05,380, Character said: fleshing hides, so on, that kind of
thing.

34
At 00:03:07,560, Character said: But made by a totally different man.

35
At 00:03:10,300, Character said: This man was down -to -earth, practical.

36
At 00:03:13,420, Character said: But this fellow was mentally an artist.

37
At 00:03:17,620, Character said: But the two men are about a thousand
years apart in time.

38
At 00:03:21,060, Character said: Makes no difference.

39
At 00:03:22,760, Character said: Men haven't changed.

40
At 00:03:25,740, Character said: In my field, we try to diagnose the
psyche of ancient man from his

41
At 00:03:31,700, Character said: You see, the thing you fellows overlook
in your collecting is the internal

42
At 00:03:36,680, Character said: chemistry of the men who made these
things.

43
At 00:03:40,680, Character said: What is your field, Mr... Clovis, Newton
B. Clovis. I'm an archaeopsychologist.

44
At 00:03:46,800, Character said: Dear me.

45
At 00:03:50,540, Character said: Even a man's bones have something to
say.

46
At 00:03:53,380, Character said: What, for instance?

47
At 00:03:55,060, Character said: Well, from the shape of his skull.

48
At 00:03:57,360, Character said: Rather intelligent man.

49
At 00:03:59,280, Character said: Athletic at one time.

50
At 00:04:01,240, Character said: Athletic? A skier.

51
At 00:04:03,460, Character said: Break in the leg just above the ankle.

52
At 00:04:06,120, Character said: Typical ski injury.

53
At 00:04:09,620, Character said: You too?

54
At 00:04:10,780, Character said: Double spiral fracture.

55
At 00:04:12,400, Character said: Made in my leg an inch and a half
shorter.

56
At 00:04:14,640, Character said: Ah, but this man was a football player.

57
At 00:04:17,640, Character said: Just a guess, of course.

58
At 00:04:20,680, Character said: You mean you knew him?

59
At 00:04:22,500, Character said: Yes, I did.

60
At 00:04:23,660, Character said: Very well.

61
At 00:04:26,800, Character said: Died not too old.

62
At 00:04:29,140, Character said: Many years ago?

63
At 00:04:30,820, Character said: Many years ago.

64
At 00:04:33,800, Character said: Modern medicine might have saved him.

65
At 00:04:36,440, Character said: No.

66
At 00:04:38,060, Character said: No medicine would have saved this man.

67
At 00:04:42,180, Character said: Mr. Clovis, how would you like to join
me in a drink before dinner?

68
At 00:04:46,860, Character said: Delighted.

69
At 00:04:48,320, Character said: After you.

70
At 00:04:57,770, Character said: You say you can diagnose ancient man
from his possessions, Mr. Clovis. How

71
At 00:05:02,050, Character said: modern man?

72
At 00:05:02,970, Character said: Who would that be?

73
At 00:05:04,190, Character said: The man all these things belong to.

74
At 00:05:06,810, Character said: There's a bucket more of these in this
pitcher. Cheers.

75
At 00:05:09,490, Character said: Yes.

76
At 00:05:11,330, Character said: Falco Mexicanus, prairie falcon.

77
At 00:05:13,670, Character said: He tried to gentle him. Kept him in a
cage.

78
At 00:05:16,930, Character said: Wouldn't do. Some things you can't keep
in a cage.

79
At 00:05:20,550, Character said: Everything in this room was his.

80
At 00:05:22,450, Character said: Just about.

81
At 00:05:25,390, Character said: Watch out.

82
At 00:05:26,760, Character said: Merit badges.

83
At 00:05:27,980, Character said: Over 30 of them.

84
At 00:05:32,460, Character said: Bird's nest.

85
At 00:05:36,640, Character said: But no eggs.

86
At 00:05:38,000, Character said: He didn't believe in collecting eggs.

87
At 00:05:40,160, Character said: No heart for it. He could take the nest
after the little ones were gone.

88
At 00:05:51,580, Character said: Fog.

89
At 00:05:53,040, Character said: Urocyan canario argentius. Gray fog.

90
At 00:05:57,290, Character said: I call her Cersei. Why Cersei?

91
At 00:05:59,850, Character said: You're supposed to divine these things,
aren't you? Drink up.

92
At 00:06:04,050, Character said: Yes, Cersei.

93
At 00:06:05,390, Character said: Cersei the Temptress.

94
At 00:06:07,830, Character said: What do you make of the man?

95
At 00:06:10,570, Character said: Gentle.

96
At 00:06:12,810, Character said: Probably full of idealism.

97
At 00:06:14,890, Character said: Obviously loves the outdoors.

98
At 00:06:18,390, Character said: Compassionate. Bravo.

99
At 00:06:21,650, Character said: You were close to him?

100
At 00:06:23,690, Character said: Yes. He was my son.

101
At 00:06:28,300, Character said: Was?

102
At 00:06:29,800, Character said: That's where Cersei comes in.

103
At 00:06:32,540, Character said: Cersei the Temptress.

104
At 00:06:35,500, Character said: I call her Cersei because she led him to
his doom.

105
At 00:06:39,100, Character said: Worked her wiles on him, brazenly let
him track her. Almost as if she knew

106
At 00:06:43,760, Character said: lay in wait for him.

107
At 00:06:45,300, Character said: He never hunted for sport, but once in a
while he collected an animal.

108
At 00:06:50,260, Character said: In this case, he had his heart set on
Cersei.

109
At 00:06:55,630, Character said: She'd been raiding hen houses in the
neighborhood.

110
At 00:06:58,470, Character said: Sooner or later, some farmer would trap
her or shoot her anyway, so Ben decided

111
At 00:07:02,670, Character said: to take her for his collection.

112
At 00:07:05,510, Character said: He spent several days and nights
learning her habits.

113
At 00:07:10,350, Character said: He discovered her latest port of call
was an old barn just over the property

114
At 00:07:14,810, Character said: line.

115
At 00:07:16,230, Character said: He'd invented a foolproof gadget for
night shooting, a spotlight mounted on

116
At 00:07:21,170, Character said: .22 in such a way...

117
At 00:07:22,940, Character said: that his shot would strike the exact
center of the circle of light.

118
At 00:07:43,900, Character said: What was that?

119
At 00:07:46,820, Character said: Rice. It's your father.

120
At 00:07:49,280, Character said: Don't be silly. You know he's at a lodge
meeting.

121
At 00:08:25,040, Character said: What do you think you're doing here?

122
At 00:08:26,720, Character said: I'm sorry, I didn't... Hollister!

123
At 00:08:29,940, Character said: Make your boy Hollister.

124
At 00:08:33,000, Character said: I didn't know anybody else was around
here. You saw the sign outside.

125
At 00:08:35,960, Character said: Yeah, but I didn't think your father
would mind. You're a liar.

126
At 00:08:38,780, Character said: Stealing pigeons, that's what he's up
to.

127
At 00:08:41,400, Character said: I wasn't stealing anything. All I wanted
was... You're a liar.

128
At 00:08:47,280, Character said: I'm sorry, Tim.

129
At 00:08:50,100, Character said: If you'll excuse me.

130
At 00:08:52,720, Character said: You're a coward, too.

131
At 00:08:57,260, Character said: If you want to step outside, I'd be very
happy to soak your head in the watering

132
At 00:09:00,520, Character said: trough.

133
At 00:09:01,780, Character said: That's not a bad deal, Tim.

134
At 00:09:04,040, Character said: I'd be giving away 15 pounds.

135
At 00:09:28,940, Character said: Tim! Murderer!

136
At 00:09:31,180, Character said: Murderer!

137
At 00:09:35,460, Character said: You don't have to

138
At 00:09:42,360, Character said: explain my duties to me, Mr. Hollister.
They're spelled out very clearly in the

139
At 00:09:46,100, Character said: oath of office the district attorney
takes.

140
At 00:09:48,000, Character said: It wouldn't hurt you to look it over
once in a while, Mr. Henshaw.

141
