"Kidnapped by madman Gerald Franklin.
Pools winner.

1:09:08
Prisoner in cellar.
Old Tudor house, near Reading.

1:09:12
So far, safe.
Frightened."

1:09:17
Frightened?
1:09:19
What have I done?
1:09:22
And mad?
1:09:26
Think a madman would have gone
to all this trouble?

1:09:29
I'll tell you what a madman
would have done.

1:09:31
He'd have killed you by now.
1:09:33
I suppose you think I'm going for you
with a carving knife or something.

1:09:38
Don't look like that.
1:09:43
I was frightened. You can understand.
I'm a prisoner and it frightens me.

1:09:48
All that you live for is the day
you'll see the last of me.

1:09:51
I'm a nobody still, aren't I?
1:09:53
But I just want to see the last
of this house, not of you.

1:09:56
Take me out. We can go together.
You could come with me.

1:09:59
I won't tell anyone.
1:10:02
We'll get you a fat near mine.
I'll see you every day.

1:10:06
I'll introduce you to all my friends.
You could start a new life.

1:10:09
Your friends would look
down on me like you do.

1:10:11
- I don't look down on you.
- What about the other night?

1:10:14
You didn't even try to understand
about my collection.

1:10:17
I'm sorry about that.
1:10:19
I've seen you with your friends.
I know what they're like.

1:10:21
You'd be ashamed of me
in front of them.

1:10:23
- Oh, no, that's not true.
- Then why don't you talk to me?

1:10:28
You never talk to me,
not really.

1:10:31
So why should anyone else
of your kind?

1:10:34
People like you...
1:10:37
you just have to walk
into a room.

1:10:40
You can talk to anyone.
You understand things.

1:10:44
It's different for people like me.
1:10:48
Now, that book you asked me to buy
for you, The Catcher in the Rye.

1:10:52
Is that a good book?
Do you like it?

1:10:55
Oh, yes, it's a beautiful book!
I've read it three times.
