- Mr. Cavor, my...
- Open the door!

:22:03
Get out of the way, man. Very hot.
:22:08
- Cavor!
- Go on, get out. Get out.

:22:11
Mr. Cavor, l simply must
get this straight.

:22:14
l...
:22:18
l'm not in a position to...
:22:22
This... You see...
:22:24
Kate...
:22:27
Kate couldn't possibly sell you
Cherry Cottage because...

:22:31
What is this stuff?
:22:33
- What?
- What is this stuff?

:22:38
That's cavorite.
:22:39
It's cavorite.
:22:43
Oh, nicely on temperature.
Nicely on temperature.

:22:46
Mr. Cavor...
:22:48
...if you would...
:22:50
...kindly tell me what it is you're
trying to do, in a simple language...

:22:55
...because l'm not a scientist.
Unless, of course, it's a secret.

:22:59
- It is a secret. It is a secret.
- Would you...

:23:04
Would you tell me?
:23:08
Yes, l will tell you.
:23:10
l will tell you. l'll explain.
l'll explain.

:23:15
Now, you know that you can
use screens, like this...

:23:19
...to cut off light and heat.
:23:22
By the same token, you can...
:23:24
...cut off Marconi's wireless rays
with sheets of lead.

:23:28
- Nothing, till now, cuts off gravity.
- Gravity. The pull of the earth.

:23:33
- What holds us on the ground.
- Yes, that's right.

:23:37
Now, what l'm experimenting with is...
:23:40
...a sort of coating,
a metallic paste...

:23:43
...which will, in fact,
cut off the force of gravity.

:23:48
- Paste?
- Paste.

:23:49
You mean you paint it on things?
:23:52
Yes, in a way. Yes.
:23:54
- Like this chair, for example.
- You could use that chair.

:23:58
- May I?
- Please. Yes, l'll show you.
