Yes, every day this week.

You must hate me very much.

But why are you doingthis to me? What have I

ever done to make youhate me this much? Why,

dear? I don't hate you.

In fact, I'm rather fond ofyou. And so is Frederick.

But we always felt that James shouldhave left Frederick his money.

We have every right to it.

Driver stop thecarriage immediately.

Driver stop the carriage. Driver!

Oh Muriel, you're wasting your breath. He'sbeen warned to expect anything.

Driver, driver!

He knows where I'm taking you.

Oh, save your strength, thedoors. They're nailed shut.

Oh.

Now just relax.

Let go!

Just relax.

There's nothing you can do.

They'll know there's something wrong.

When I don't show up to the church.

Yes, he will.

Even before Frederick tells himthat you've had a change of heart

and that you've left out.

They won't believe that.

Are you sure?

You've kept himwaiting at the church.

And he knows hownervous you've been of late.

Goodness knows I'vetold him often enough.

You won't get away with it.You won't get away with it.

I will soon be at Fenwick Park

and Dr. Severance is expecting.

Yes but he won't lock me up.

I'm just tellingthe truth. I'll tell

him what you'retrying to do to me.

Yes, you just do that.

More than protest, themore he'll be convinced that

you're out of your mind.I'm not out of my mind.

I'm not out of mymind. I'll tell him

the truth and youbelieve I'm not insane.

You'll know I'm not.

In Muriel, I'm surethey never received a

patient yet whoadmitted to being insane.

You heard everything.

You know how thorough Frederick is.

[music]

They have never received the patientyet who admitted to being insane.

They've never received the patientyet who admitted to being insane.

Well, Muriel, dear, we are here.

Now, please don't make a fuss.

I would hate to have themput you into a straitjacket.

Good afternoon.

Good afternoon.

Good afternoon.

Doctor seven is expecting us.

Quick, would you come in, please?

[door closing]

If you'll wait righthere, I'll call a doctor.

I'm glad you're notgoing to make a fuss.

It would be useless,just as you said.

That's right.

There's nothingyou can do about it.

Mrs. Muriel?

Yes, Doctor. I'm Mrs. Muriel.

I'm your patient. I know. You'vebeen expecting me, doctor.

Well, yes. I did get wordto expect to mrs. Muriel.

Yes, I'm violently insane.

But I know you're going totake good care of me here.

Of course he is, Muriel. Ofcourse he is. Won't you, doctor?

Doctor, Mrs. Vale isworried about my welfare.

I think she would feelbetter if one of your

assistants showed heraround the institution.

Do you understand?

Yes I think I do understand.

John, would you takecare of Mrs. Vale, please?

Would you come with me, please?

Okay, young man, let's go.

patient yet to admitit to being insane?

No, we never have.

We expect the sort of thing.

You won't hurt her, will you?

Of course not. We'llbe very good to her.

She certainly appears tobe under an emotional strain.

We'll examine her andI'll let you know tomorrow.

Yes. Thank you, Doctor.
