7/25/2019 North by Northwest - English
8/117

10200:10:03,227 --> 00:10:06,187Oh, I'm so glad you're pleased,Mr. Townsend.
7/25/2019 North by Northwest - English
9/117
10300:10:06,355 --> 00:10:09,691But I'm afraid just as obvious.
10400:10:10,318 --> 00:10:13,153What the devil is all this about?Why was I brought here?
10500:10:15,364 --> 00:10:17,866Games? Must we?
10600:10:19,118 --> 00:10:20,869Not that I mind a case of abduction...
10700:10:21,037 --> 00:10:23,663...but I have ticketsfor the theater this evening.
10800:10:23,831 --> 00:10:28,376
To a show I was looking forward to. And Iget unreasonable about things like that.
10900:10:28,544 --> 00:10:32,505With such expert play-acting,you make this very room a theater.
11000:10:33,633 --> 00:10:37,135Oh, Leonard,have you met our distinguished guest?
11100:10:38,721 --> 00:10:40,513He's a well-tailored one, isn't he?
11200:10:41,057 --> 00:10:44,559My secretary is a great admirerof your methods, Mr. Kaplan.
11300:10:44,727 --> 00:10:48,813-Elusiveness, however misguided---Wait a minute. Wait, wait.
11400:10:48,981 --> 00:10:51,941-Did you call me "Kaplan"?-I know you're a man of many names...
11500:10:52,109 --> 00:10:54,819...but I'm perfectly willing to acceptyour current choice.
7/25/2019 North by Northwest - English
10/117
11600:10:54,987 --> 00:10:56,154Current choice?
11700:10:56,322 --> 00:10:59,616My name is Thornhill. Roger Thornhill.It's never been anything else.
11800:10:59,784 --> 00:11:01,326Of course.
11900:11:01,911 --> 00:11:05,705Your friends picked up the wrong packagewhen they bundled me out here in the car.
12000:11:05,873 --> 00:11:07,749Do sit down, Mr. Kaplan.
121
00:11:08,209 --> 00:11:11,336I told you, I'm not Kaplan,whoever he is. I'm--
12200:11:11,504 --> 00:11:13,046-Excuse me.Yes?

12500:11:19,553 --> 00:11:21,596Now, shall we get down to business?
12600:11:21,764 --> 00:11:22,931I'm all for that.
12700:11:23,099 --> 00:11:26,434Simply, I'd like you to tell mehow much you know of our arrangements...
12800:11:26,602 --> 00:11:28,728...and how you've come bythis information.
7/25/2019 North by Northwest - English
11/117
12900:11:28,896 --> 00:11:31,439-I don't expect to get this for nothing.-Of course not.
13000:11:31,607 --> 00:11:35,068Don't misunderstand, I don't expect youto fall in with this suggestion...
13100:11:35,236 --> 00:11:39,739...but the least I can do is afford youthe opportunity of surviving the evening.
13200:11:42,952 --> 00:11:44,911What the devil is that supposed to mean?
13300:11:45,079 --> 00:11:47,706Why don't you surprise me,Mr. Kaplan, and say yes?
13400:11:47,873 --> 00:11:50,709I've already told you---We know where you're headed for.
13500:11:50,876 --> 00:11:51,960I know where I'm headed.
13600:11:52,128 --> 00:11:56,464I'm headed for the Winter Garden Theater inNew York, and I think I'd better get going.
13700:12:04,974 --> 00:12:07,100Townsend,you're making a serious mistake.
13800:12:07,518 --> 00:12:11,312This is not going to leadto a very happy conclusion, Mr. Kaplan.
13900:12:11,480 --> 00:12:14,482
I'm not Kaplan.-I do wish you'd reconsider.
14000:12:14,650 --> 00:12:19,237We also know your contact in Pittsburghsince Jason committed suicide.
14100:12:19,405 --> 00:12:22,657
7/25/2019 North by Northwest - English

13/117
-There's very little sense...
15400:12:57,526 --> 00:13:01,362...in maintaining that you're deceiving usany more than we're deceiving you.
15500:13:01,530 --> 00:13:04,532I don't suppose it would do any goodto show you ID cards...
15600:13:04,700 --> 00:13:08,787-...a driver's license, things like that?-They provide you with such good ones.
15700:13:09,705 --> 00:13:12,332It's getting late. I have guests.
15800:13:12,500 --> 00:13:15,919Do you intend to cooperate with us?
I'd like a simple yes or no.

16000:13:17,463 --> 00:13:21,382For the simple reason I simply don't knowwhat you're talking about.
16100:13:25,387 --> 00:13:27,430
Give Mr. Kaplan a drink, Leonard.
16200:13:27,598 --> 00:13:29,307A pleasant journey, sir.

16800:13:57,336 --> 00:14:02,507It'll be easier if you take this yourself.Otherwise, it'll be necessary for us to insist.
16900:14:15,938 --> 00:14:17,605Cheers.
17000:15:05,779 --> 00:15:08,072Don't worry about me, fellas.I'll take the bus.

35800:29:33,021 --> 00:29:34,480Too late.
35900:29:39,694 --> 00:29:42,946-You rang for me, sir?-Yes. Come in a moment.

36500:29:59,798 --> 00:30:01,882And that's the first timeyou laid eyes on me?
36600:30:02,050 --> 00:30:04,384Can I help it if you're never around,Mr. Kaplan?
36700:30:04,552 --> 00:30:06,553Well, then, how do you knowI am Mr. Kaplan?

37300:30:26,533 --> 00:30:27,574Valet.
374
00:30:27,742 --> 00:30:29,493Oh, yes, come in.
37500:30:30,036 --> 00:30:32,037Should I hang it in the closet, Mr. Kaplan?
37600:30:32,205 --> 00:30:33,747Yes, please.
7/25/2019 North by Northwest - English
30/117
37700:30:39,462 --> 00:30:40,963Tell me, uh....
37800:30:41,130 --> 00:30:43,757I forgot,what time did I give you that suit?
37900:30:44,425 --> 00:30:46,009Last night, around, uh....
38000:30:46,177 --> 00:30:47,427-Around 6.-Oh.
38100:30:47,595 --> 00:30:50,097-Did I give it to you personally?-Personally?
38200:30:50,265 --> 00:30:53,475No. You called down on the phoneand described the suit to me...
38300:30:53,643 --> 00:30:57,354...and said it would be hangingin your closet. Like you always do.
38400:30:57,522 --> 00:31:00,232-Anything wrong?
-No, no, just curious.
38500:31:00,400 --> 00:31:02,442-Here. Thanks.-Thank you.
38600:31:02,610 --> 00:31:04,403Nice to meet you, Mr. Kaplan.
38700:31:08,825 --> 00:31:10,784
Isn't that the damnedest thing?
38800:31:10,952 --> 00:31:14,329I
m beginning to think that no onein the hotel has actually seen Kaplan.
38900:31:14,497 --> 00:31:17,249Maybe he has his suits mended
7/25/2019 North by Northwest - English

by invisible weavers.
39000:31:17,417 --> 00:31:18,792Oh....
39100:31:23,756 --> 00:31:25,424Let me see something.
39200:31:31,472 --> 00:31:34,308I don
t think that one does anythingfor you.
39300:31:39,480 --> 00:31:40,981Ah, now, that
s much better.
39400:31:41,316 --> 00:31:43,567Now, obviously they
ve mistaken mefor a much shorter man.
39500:31:49,198 --> 00:31:51,491-Should I?-Certainly not.
39600:31:53,119 --> 00:31:54,703Here, hold that, dear.

40000:32:03,296 --> 00:32:06,423We met only last night,and still you do not recognize my voice.
40100:32:06,591 --> 00:32:08,508I should feel offended.
40200:32:08,676 --> 00:32:11,887Yes, I know who you are,and I
m not Mr. Kaplan.
403
7/25/2019 North by Northwest - English
32/117
00:32:12,055 --> 00:32:15,849Of course not. You answerhis telephone, you live in his hotel room...
40400:32:16,017 --> 00:32:18,018...and yet you are not Mr. Kaplan.
40500:32:18,186 --> 00:32:21,688Nevertheless,we are pleased to find you in.
40600:32:21,856 --> 00:32:23,315Now, wait--

46000:37:17,735 --> 00:37:19,611That s the one.
46100:37:20,112 --> 00:37:22,113Were you at home last night,Mr. Townsend?
46200:37:22,281 --> 00:37:23,782-You mean in Glen Cove?

46300:37:23,950 --> 00:37:26,743I
ve been staying in my apartmentin town for the last month.
46400:37:26,911 --> 00:37:29,079I always do when we
re in session here.
46500:37:29,247 --> 00:37:30,914
What about Mrs. Townsend?
46600:37:31,415 --> 00:37:33,166My wife has been dead for many years.
46700:37:33,334 --> 00:37:36,127-Oh, I---Now, Mr. Kaplan, what
s this all about?
7/25/2019 North by Northwest - English
37/117
46800:37:36,295 --> 00:37:38,755Forgive me. Who are those people livingin your house?
46900:37:38,923 --> 00:37:41,466What people?The house is completely closed up.
47000:37:42,218 --> 00:37:44,678Just the gardener and his wifeliving on the grounds.
47100:37:44,845 --> 00:37:47,931Now, Mr. Kaplan, suppose you tell mewho you are and what you want.
47200:37:48,099 --> 00:37:50,517Well, please, just....
47300:37:51,352 --> 00:37:53,979Look. Do you know this man?
47400:38:02,363 --> 00:38:04,030Look!
47500:38:08,160 --> 00:38:09,619He
s got a knife. Look out!
47600:38:09,787 --> 00:38:12,580Listen to me.I had nothing to do with this.
47700:38:12,748 --> 00:38:15,208Call the police.-Wait a minute. Don
t come nearer.
47800:38:15,376 --> 00:38:17,043Get back.
47900:38:35,896 --> 00:38:38,898"The photograph has beenidentified as that of Roger Thornhill...
48000:38:39,066 --> 00:38:43,820...a Manhattan advertising executive,indicating that the name of George Kaplan...
7/25/2019 North by Northwest - English
38/117
48100:38:43,988 --> 00:38:48,950...which he gave to an attendant in theGeneral Assembly Building was false.
48200:38:49,118 --> 00:38:53,246A possible motive for the slayingwas suggested by the discovery...
48300:38:53,414 --> 00:38:56,958...that earlier today, Thornhill appearedat Glen Cove police court...
48400:38:57,126 --> 00:39:01,129...charged with drunk drivingwith a stolen car.
48500:39:01,297 --> 00:39:04,591In his defense, he charged
that the murder victim, Mr. Townsend...
48600:39:04,759 --> 00:39:07,427...had tried to kill him the night before."
48700:39:07,595 --> 00:39:10,805-Brother.-What about that?
48800:39:11,098 --> 00:39:13,850
Does anyone know this Thornhill?
48900:39:14,018 --> 00:39:16,770-No, not me.-Never heard of him.
49000:39:16,937 --> 00:39:18,021Professor?
49100:39:18,189 --> 00:39:22,067
Apparently, the poor sucker got mistakenfor George Kaplan.
49200:39:22,234 --> 00:39:25,487How can he get mistaken forGeorge Kaplan when he doesn
t even exist?
49300:39:25,654 --> 00:39:28,782
7/25/2019 North by Northwest - English
39/117
Don
t ask me how it happened.Obviously, it happened.
49400:39:28,949 --> 00:39:32,869Vandamm
s men must have grabbed himand tried to put him away...
49500:39:33,037 --> 00:39:34,746...using Lester Townsend
s house.
49600:39:34,914 --> 00:39:39,459The unsuspecting Mr. Townsend winds upwith a stray knife in his back.
49700:39:41,379 --> 00:39:43,963So horribly sad.How is it I feel like laughing?
49800:39:44,131 --> 00:39:45,673
What are we going to do?
49900:39:45,841 --> 00:39:46,966Do?
50000:39:47,134 --> 00:39:48,301About Mr. Thornhill.
50100:39:49,428 --> 00:39:51,012We, uh....
50200:39:51,180 --> 00:39:52,263We do nothing.
50300:39:53,057 --> 00:39:56,101-Nothing?-That
s right. Nothing.
50400:39:56,310 --> 00:40:01,147Or we could congratulate ourselves
on a marvelous stroke of good fortune.
50500:40:01,690 --> 00:40:05,652Our non-existent decoy, George Kaplan,created to divert suspicion...
50600:40:05,820 --> 00:40:09,823...from our actual agent,
7/25/2019 North by Northwest - English
40/117
has fortuitously become a live decoy.
50700:40:09,990 --> 00:40:14,536Yes, professor.And how long do you think he
ll stay live?
50800:40:14,703 --> 00:40:16,454Well, that
s his problem.
50900:40:16,622 --> 00:40:19,666What Mrs. Finley means, is---Oh, I know what she means.
51000:40:19,834 --> 00:40:23,002We can
t sit back calmlyand wait to see who kills him first.
51100:40:23,170 --> 00:40:25,004Vandamm and company or the police.
51200:40:26,424 --> 00:40:29,926What can we do to save himwithout endangering our own agent?
51300:40:30,094 --> 00:40:32,720Aren
t we being just a wee bit callous?
51400:40:32,888 --> 00:40:35,682No, my dear woman,
we
re not being callous.
51500:40:35,850 --> 00:40:40,061We didn
t invent our nonexistent manand give him the name of George Kaplan...
51600:40:40,229 --> 00:40:43,022...and establish elaborate behavior patternsfor him...
517
00:40:43,190 --> 00:40:45,942...and move his prop belongingsin and out of hotel rooms...
51800:40:46,110 --> 00:40:48,361...for our own private amusement.
51900:40:48,779 --> 00:40:50,697
7/25/2019 North by Northwest - English
41/117
We created George Kaplan...
52000:40:50,865 --> 00:40:53,158...and labored successfullyto convince Vandamm...
52100:40:53,325 --> 00:40:57,203...that this was our own agent hot on histrail for a desperately important reason.
52200:40:57,371 --> 00:40:59,581Check.-Nobody s denying that!
52300:40:59,748 --> 00:41:01,082Very well, then.
52400:41:01,250 --> 00:41:05,378If we make the slightest move to suggest
there is no such agent as George Kaplan...
52500:41:05,546 --> 00:41:08,173...give any hint to Vandammthat he
s pursuing a decoy...
52600:41:08,340 --> 00:41:10,133...instead of our own agent...
52700:41:10,301 --> 00:41:13,887
...then our agent,working right under Vandamm
s very nose...
52800:41:14,054 --> 00:41:17,223...will immediately face suspicion,exposure...
52900:41:17,391 --> 00:41:19,559...and assassination.
530
00:41:20,436 --> 00:41:22,145Like the two others who went before.
53100:41:22,313 --> 00:41:26,733Goodbye, Mr. Thornhill,wherever you are.

53600:41:52,551 --> 00:41:55,887Now, listen to me, Mother, I beg you.I called the Plaza.
53700:41:56,055 --> 00:41:59,182Kaplan checked out. He went
to the hotel Ambassador East in Chicago.
53800:41:59,350 --> 00:42:01,434Yes, that
s why I
m--
53900:42:01,602 --> 00:42:04,145Well, I can
t go to the police.At least not yet.
54000:42:04,313 --> 00:42:07,023
You saw the newspapers.My fingerprints are on the knife...
54100:42:07,191 --> 00:42:10,401...I
m a car thief, a drunk driver,and I murdered a man for revenge.
54200:42:10,569 --> 00:42:11,903I wouldn
t have a chance.
543
00:42:12,071 --> 00:42:16,407And I won
t have, until I find George Kaplanwho obviously knows what this is all about.
54400:42:16,867 --> 00:42:19,327No, dear, the train. It
s safer.
54500:42:19,495 --> 00:42:23,581

Well, because there
s no place to hideon a plane if anyone should recognize me.
54600:42:24,375 --> 00:42:27,335You want me to jump off a moving plane?
54700:42:27,545 --> 00:42:31,464Yes. Well, thank you so much, Mother.Yeah, well, goodbye.

-Do you recommend anything?-The brook trout.

58300:47:14,915 --> 00:47:17,375
Brook trout.
58400:47:18,085 --> 00:47:19,752-There you are. Thank you.Yes, sir.
58500:47:32,099 --> 00:47:35,268-I know. I look vaguely familiar.
7/25/2019 North by Northwest - English
46/117
-Yes.
58600:47:35,435 --> 00:47:37,353You feel you
ve seen mesomewhere before.
58700:47:37,521 --> 00:47:39,105Mm-hm.
58800:47:39,690 --> 00:47:43,693Funny how I have that effect on people.It
s something about my face.
58900:47:43,861 --> 00:47:46,153It
s a nice face.
59000:47:46,321 --> 00:47:49,991-You think so?-I wouldn t say it if I didn t.
59100:47:50,158 --> 00:47:53,369Oh, you re that type.-What type?
59200:47:53,537 --> 00:47:55,079Honest.
59300:47:55,247 --> 00:47:56,372Not really.
59400:47:57,040 --> 00:48:00,793-Good. Because honest women frighten me.Why?
59500:48:00,961 --> 00:48:03,796I don
t know. Somehow,they seem to put me at a disadvantage.
59600:48:03,964 --> 00:48:07,216
-Because you
re not honest with them?Exactly.
59700:48:07,384 --> 00:48:10,469Like that businessabout the seven parking tickets?
59800:48:10,637 --> 00:48:15,057
7/25/2019 North by Northwest - English
47/117
Well, what I mean is,the moment I meet an attractive woman...
59900:48:15,225 --> 00:48:18,853...I have to start pretendingI
ve no desire to make love to her.
60000:48:19,187 --> 00:48:21,856What makes you think you haveto conceal it?
60100:48:22,024 --> 00:48:23,983She might find the idea objectionable.
60200:48:24,693 --> 00:48:26,152Then again, she might not.
60300:48:29,948 --> 00:48:32,408Think how lucky I am
to have been seated here.
60400:48:32,576 --> 00:48:35,036Oh, luck had nothing to do with it.
60500:48:35,203 --> 00:48:36,954Fate?
60600:48:38,040 --> 00:48:42,084I tipped the steward $5 to seat you here
if you should come in.
60700:48:46,173 --> 00:48:47,256Is that a proposition?
60800:48:49,176 --> 00:48:51,427I never discuss loveon an empty stomach.
60900:48:52,346 --> 00:48:53,596
You
ve already eaten.
61000:48:54,348 --> 00:48:55,431But you haven
t.
61100:49:02,898 --> 00:49:04,982Don
t you think it
s timewe were introduced?
7/25/2019 North by Northwest - English

61400:49:12,574 --> 00:49:16,494Tell me. What do you do besides lure mento their doom on the 20th Century Limited?
61500:49:16,662 --> 00:49:18,871I
m an industrial designer.
61600:49:20,290 --> 00:49:24,377Jack Phillips. Western sales managerfor Kingby Electronics.
617
00:49:24,544 --> 00:49:28,506No, you
re not.You
re Roger Thornhill of Madison Avenue...
61800:49:28,674 --> 00:49:31,842...and you
re wanted for murderon every front page in America.
61900:49:32,010 --> 00:49:34,470And don
t be so modest.
62000:49:34,638 --> 00:49:36,097Whoops.
62100:49:36,932 --> 00:49:38,057Oh, don
t worry.
62200:49:38,558 --> 00:49:40,559-I won
t say a word.-How come?
62300:49:41,937 --> 00:49:43,646I told you.
62400:49:43,814 --> 00:49:45,022It
s a nice face.
62500:49:45,524 --> 00:49:46,732
7/25/2019 North by Northwest - English
49/117
Is that the only reason?
62600:49:47,442 --> 00:49:49,235It
s going to be a long night.
62700:49:50,404 --> 00:49:51,404True.
62800:49:51,571 --> 00:49:54,240And I don
t particularly like the bookI
ve started.
62900:49:56,159 --> 00:49:57,326You know what I mean?
63000:49:58,954 --> 00:50:00,997Let me think.
631
00:50:04,418 --> 00:50:06,002Yes, I know exactly what you mean.
63200:50:18,849 --> 00:50:20,558There
s my trademark. R.O.T.
63300:50:21,435 --> 00:50:24,687Roger O. Thornhill.What does the "O" stand for?
634
00:50:24,855 --> 00:50:26,731Nothing.
63500:50:49,463 --> 00:50:52,298I
d invite you to my bedroomif I had a bedroom.
63600:50:52,841 --> 00:50:55,134-A roomette?-Nothing, not even a ticket.
63700:50:55,302 --> 00:50:59,472I
ve been playing hide-and-seekever since the train left New York.
63800:51:00,223 --> 00:51:02,641-How awkward for you.-Yes, isn
t it?
7/25/2019 North by Northwest - English
50/117
63900:51:02,809 --> 00:51:04,060No place to sleep.
64000:51:05,479 --> 00:51:07,646I have a large drawing room all to myself.
64100:51:08,482 --> 00:51:10,274That doesn
t seem quite fair, does it?
64200:51:11,318 --> 00:51:13,277Drawing room E.
64300:51:13,445 --> 00:51:15,279Car 3901.
64400:51:16,198 --> 00:51:17,615Such a nice number.
64500:51:19,159 --> 00:51:20,826It
s easy to remember.
64600:51:20,994 --> 00:51:22,787Thirty-nine-oh-one.
64700:51:23,705 --> 00:51:24,747See?
648
00:51:26,333 --> 00:51:27,333No luggage.
64900:51:31,004 --> 00:51:32,505-So?-Well, you wouldn
t happen...
65000:51:32,672 --> 00:51:35,216...to have an extra pair of pajamas,would you?
65100:51:35,383 --> 00:51:36,634Wouldn
t I?
65200:51:38,637 --> 00:51:41,806Incidentally, I wouldn
t order any dessertif I were you.
653
7/25/2019 North by Northwest - English
51/117
00:51:41,973 --> 00:51:43,015I get the message.
65400:51:44,017 --> 00:51:45,601That isn
t exactly what I meant.
65500:51:46,103 --> 00:51:48,354This train seems to be makingan unscheduled stop.
65600:51:48,522 --> 00:51:52,525And I just saw two men get outof a police car as we pulled into the station.
65700:51:53,193 --> 00:51:54,360They weren t smiling.
65800:52:16,758 --> 00:52:19,385I think you better go out
and tell those police to hurry.
65900:52:19,553 --> 00:52:21,137Patience is a virtue.
66000:52:21,304 --> 00:52:22,721So is breathing.
66100:52:22,889 --> 00:52:25,266Just lie still.
66200:52:26,184 --> 00:52:27,852Have you got any olive oil?
66300:52:28,019 --> 00:52:29,311Olive oil?
66400:52:29,479 --> 00:52:32,398I want to be packed in olive oilif I
m gonna be a sardine.
66500:52:34,151 --> 00:52:35,609Come in.
66600:52:36,820 --> 00:52:39,488-Who are you?-State police.
7/25/2019 North by Northwest - English
52/117
66700:52:40,240 --> 00:52:41,574Your name please?
66800:52:41,741 --> 00:52:44,243Eve Kendall. Is anything wrong?
66900:52:44,411 --> 00:52:47,580There was a man at your table tonightin the dining car.
67000:52:47,747 --> 00:52:50,583-Yes.Friend of yours?
67100:52:50,750 --> 00:52:52,334I never saw him before.
67200:52:54,004 --> 00:52:55,671
Is this the man?
67300:52:56,590 --> 00:52:59,842Yes, I think so.It
s not a very clear picture.
67400:53:00,010 --> 00:53:02,928It
s a Wirephoto.We just got it from the New York police.
675
00:53:03,096 --> 00:53:05,097-Police?-He
s wanted for murder.
67600:53:06,641 --> 00:53:08,267Good heavens, no.
67700:53:09,019 --> 00:53:11,562The steward saidyou left the dining car together.
67800:53:11,730 --> 00:53:15,524We might have happened to leaveat the same time, but not together.
67900:53:16,276 --> 00:53:17,610What did you two talk about?
680
7/25/2019 North by Northwest - English
53/117
00:53:18,653 --> 00:53:19,695Talk about?
68100:53:20,322 --> 00:53:23,324Your waiter said you were getting alonggood with this Thornhill.
68200:53:23,491 --> 00:53:25,326Is that his name? Thornhill?
68300:53:26,036 --> 00:53:28,245You mean, he didn
t tell you?
68400:53:28,413 --> 00:53:30,581He didn
t tell me anything.
68500:53:30,749 --> 00:53:33,959All we did was chatabout different kinds of food...
68600:53:34,127 --> 00:53:37,087...train travel versus plane travel,that sort of thing.
68700:53:37,797 --> 00:53:42,218Rather innocuous, I must say,considering he was a fugitive from justice.
68800:53:42,385 --> 00:53:45,304
-Who did he kill?-He didn
t say where he was going, did he?
68900:53:46,306 --> 00:53:49,308No. I assumed Chicago.
69000:53:49,476 --> 00:53:51,560You think perhaps he got offwhen you got on?
691
00:53:52,687 --> 00:53:55,064If you happento catch sight of him again, Miss, uh--
69200:53:55,232 --> 00:53:56,315Kendall.
69300:53:56,483 --> 00:53:58,317
7/25/2019 North by Northwest - English
54/117
--will you let us know?
69400:53:58,902 --> 00:54:00,986I
m going to bedand I intend to lock my door.
69500:54:01,154 --> 00:54:03,489So I doubt if I
ll seeinganybody else tonight.
69600:54:03,657 --> 00:54:07,952Well, just in case you do, we
ll be inthe observation car at the rear of the train.
69700:54:08,119 --> 00:54:09,495It s comforting to know that.
69800:54:11,206 --> 00:54:12,289Good night.
69900:54:14,334 --> 00:54:15,626Still breathing?
70000:54:15,794 --> 00:54:18,879Either hurry up or get me a snorkel.
70100:54:19,047 --> 00:54:22,675I
m looking for the can openerI stole from the porter.
70200:54:27,889 --> 00:54:29,348Hello, there.
70300:54:29,599 --> 00:54:31,141Hello.

70500:54:43,196 --> 00:54:45,447Tell me, why are you so good to me?
70600:54:46,700 --> 00:54:48,701Shall I climb up and tell you why?
70700:55:02,882 --> 00:55:05,843
7/25/2019 North by Northwest - English
55/117
You know, I
ve been thinking,it
s not safe for you...
70800:55:06,011 --> 00:55:08,971...to roam around Chicagolooking for this George Kaplan man...
70900:55:09,139 --> 00:55:11,140...you
ve been telling me about.
71000:55:11,599 --> 00:55:15,436You
ll be picked up by the policethe moment you show your face.
71100:55:15,603 --> 00:55:17,229Such a nice face too.
71200:55:20,108 --> 00:55:25,195Now, don t you think it would be a better
idea if you stayed in my hotel room...
71300:55:25,363 --> 00:55:29,575...while I located him for youand brought him to you?
71400:55:29,743 --> 00:55:32,578I can
t let you get involved.It
s too dangerous.
715
00:55:33,747 --> 00:55:35,164I
