  Speaker 1: On a newly surveyed alien planet, a human expedition finds
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: a single native creature with an extraordinary range of uses
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: and a biological mystery beneath that first impression. From NBC's
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: science fiction anthology X minus one comes Drop Dead episode
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: one hundred eight, originally broadcast August twenty second, nineteen fifty seven.
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: Adapted by Ernest Kinoy from Clifford D. Simak's Galaxy science
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: fiction novelette. The drama features Lawson Zerbe, Ralph Camargo, and
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: Joseph Bell under the direction of George Vautsis. The survey
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: team studies the creature they call the critter, as the
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: demands of exploration and human expansion meet an unfamiliar natural order.
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: Now back to the golden age of radio.

  Speaker 2: This is Nightline, your tie line of the world, and
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: this is water o'keep.
• 0:58
  Speaker 3: Tonight.
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: A visitor wor worlds strangely different from ours, The world
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: of the future, the world of X minus one.
• 1:14
  Speaker 3: Now Here is the future X minus one.

  Speaker 4: Condom for blast off X minus five four three two
• 1:28
  Speaker 4: X minus one fire from the far horizons of the unknown.
• 1:58
  Speaker 4: Comtaales of new dimensions in time and space. These are
• 2:03
  Speaker 4: stories of the future. Adventures in which you'll live in
• 2:06
  Speaker 4: a million, could be years, on a thousand, maybe worlds.
• 2:10
  Speaker 4: The National Broadcasting Company, in cooperation with Galaxies Science Fiction
• 2:14
  Speaker 4: Magazine presents.
• 2:16
  Speaker 5: He Minus one one.
• 2:30
  Speaker 4: Tonight the Clifford D. Simak story Dropped Dead. But first
• 2:36
  Speaker 4: hear this.
• 2:38
  Speaker 6: Have you ever asked yourself what this country's most important
• 2:41
  Speaker 6: natural resource is? I'm Dorothy Olsen, NBC bandstand singing school teacher.
• 2:47
  Speaker 6: Our most important resource? Well, you might considered our mineral deposits,
• 2:52
  Speaker 6: or are tremendous sources of water power, or maybe are
• 2:55
  Speaker 6: just our great forests. Well, these are all very important
• 2:58
  Speaker 6: natural resources. But there's one resource that's more important than
• 3:01
  Speaker 6: all these combined, our children. Don't neglect them or their
• 3:06
  Speaker 6: educational facilities. Poor schools breed in adequate citizens for tomorrow.
• 3:11
  Speaker 6: And another thing. Keep your youngsters in tiptop shape so
• 3:14
  Speaker 6: that they won't miss important school days. Dress them against
• 3:17
  Speaker 6: the weather so they won't catch needless winter colds. Check
• 3:20
  Speaker 6: their wardrobe as they go back to school this fall
• 3:22
  Speaker 6: to be sure that they have plenty of the right
• 3:24
  Speaker 6: kind of clothing. Remember, our children are this nation's most
• 3:28
  Speaker 6: important natural resource. It's your job to protect their future
• 3:33
  Speaker 6: as they go back to school. Is fall.
• 3:47
  Speaker 4: Ah x minus one and the story of an Unbelievable Planet.
• 3:53
  Speaker 4: Listen to prop Dead.
• 4:02
  Speaker 5: Exactly one hour and twenty minutes after we sent the
• 4:05
  Speaker 5: survey ship out on its tail, the critics showed up. Ordinarily,
• 4:10
  Speaker 5: when you make a landing on an unknown planet, it
• 4:13
  Speaker 5: takes at least a week for any life to come
• 4:15
  Speaker 5: creeping out of hiding and sneak a look.
• 4:17
  Speaker 3: But there they were, the critters.
• 4:22
  Speaker 5: They were almost cowsized, but not as graceful as a cow.
• 4:26
  Speaker 5: Their bodies were put together as if every blessed one
• 4:29
  Speaker 5: of them had run full tilt into a wall. Their
• 4:32
  Speaker 5: hides were spliced with large squares of pastel colors, the
• 4:36
  Speaker 5: kind of color one never finds on any self respecting animal.
• 4:39
  Speaker 3: Violet, pink, orange, chartruse.
• 4:42
  Speaker 5: The overall effect was in a checkerboard made by an
• 4:46
  Speaker 5: old lady who did crazy quilts. Max Webber, our biologists
• 4:49
  Speaker 5: stood at the tailfin with me.
• 4:51
  Speaker 3: Instead, look at.
• 4:52
  Speaker 5: That on their heads, those antlers as they are not antlers,
• 4:55
  Speaker 5: my friend, well, I was afraid to say it. It looks
• 4:58
  Speaker 5: like vegetation, as if they were trying to hide behind
• 5:02
  Speaker 5: a skimpy thicket and What bothers me is the fruit
• 5:05
  Speaker 5: and vegetables. That is, fruit and vegetables growing on their head.
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: They watch it.
• 5:10
  Speaker 5: One of them's broken away from the herd and coming
• 5:11
  Speaker 5: over this way.
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: Step back, give me a clear shot in case of charges.
• 5:14
  Speaker 5: Look here it comes. How do you like that it
• 5:22
  Speaker 5: just dropped head? That animal just walked up to usn't
• 5:27
  Speaker 5: dropped dead. We left the critter lying where it fell
• 5:40
  Speaker 5: and started to set up camp. Carl Parsons, our ecologist,
• 5:44
  Speaker 5: had the stove together and the supper started before the
• 5:46
  Speaker 5: last ten peg was driven. I dug out my diet
• 5:49
  Speaker 5: kit and mixed up my formula, and all of them
• 5:51
  Speaker 5: kidded me about it the way they always did.
• 5:54
  Speaker 3: It didn't bother me.
• 5:55
  Speaker 5: Their kidding was automatic, and I had automatic answers. El
• 6:00
  Speaker 5: series must sound silly in our cake. You ask, any
• 6:02
  Speaker 5: meddy can tell you they don't happen anymore. But I
• 6:06
  Speaker 5: have a riddle stomach and a special diet kit to
• 6:08
  Speaker 5: prove that they sometimes do. After supper, Calm Parson's, the ecologist, Max,
• 6:14
  Speaker 5: and I dragged the critter in and had a good
• 6:16
  Speaker 5: look at me.
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: Look at this ed.
• 6:19
  Speaker 5: This animal's got different colored blocks on it. Just like
• 6:22
  Speaker 5: a like a checkerboard. Look at this one holes, Yeah,
• 6:27
  Speaker 5: just like one of those pig sets the kids uses toys. Yeah,
• 6:31
  Speaker 5: look what I found out of that. I'll poke it
• 6:33
  Speaker 5: with my knife.
• 6:35
  Speaker 3: There looks like a bee.
• 6:37
  Speaker 7: It is.
• 6:39
  Speaker 5: On top of being a tomato bush and a grapevine.
• 6:42
  Speaker 5: This critter is a walking beehive.
• 6:44
  Speaker 7: Why couldn't they be something simple?
• 6:46
  Speaker 3: It never is?
• 6:47
  Speaker 5: You know, this is a screwy place. The gritters, Oh
• 6:51
  Speaker 5: not the critters. The planet itself never saw one like it.
• 6:56
  Speaker 5: It's positively naked. No trees, no flowers, nothing, Almost as
• 7:01
  Speaker 5: if someone had said, let's make a simple planet. Let's
• 7:05
  Speaker 5: cut out all the frills, let's skip all the biological
• 7:08
  Speaker 5: experiments and just work on the basics. One form of
• 7:12
  Speaker 5: life and the grass for it to eat. We unshipped
• 7:25
  Speaker 5: the experimental animals, the rats. There's our tills from Centauri
• 7:28
  Speaker 5: and the punkins from Polaris. The punkins made an unholy
• 7:32
  Speaker 5: racket because punkins are always hungry. You just can't give
• 7:34
  Speaker 5: them enough to eat. You turn them loose and they
• 7:37
  Speaker 5: eat themselves to debt. We got them all unshipped and
• 7:40
  Speaker 5: set up under a shed in rows. When Max walked
• 7:42
  Speaker 5: up to me thoughtfully chewing on a toothpicked the way
• 7:44
  Speaker 5: he always did. Ed, there's something wrong? Yeah, what do
• 7:49
  Speaker 5: you mean? There are no insects here? I wandered around,
• 7:53
  Speaker 5: laid down in a dozen different places. Stands to reason
• 7:57
  Speaker 5: a man should find some insects if he looked all morning.
• 7:59
  Speaker 3: It is natural.
• 8:00
  Speaker 5: What about the bees? What bees are the ones that
• 8:03
  Speaker 5: were in the critter didn't you see any? I didn't
• 8:07
  Speaker 5: get close to any critter? Herds, birds, not a one. Oh?
• 8:12
  Speaker 5: I was wrong about the flowers. The grass is tiny flowers.
• 8:18
  Speaker 3: For the bees to work on.
• 8:22
  Speaker 5: Very neat, isn't it.
• 8:24
  Speaker 3: I'm not so sure American tradition.
• 8:50
  Speaker 4: Now back to X minus one and the Clifford Simak
• 8:53
  Speaker 4: story Drop Dead.
• 9:00
  Speaker 5: The bioteam had the critters spread out on a canvas type.
• 9:04
  Speaker 5: They were happily chopping them up in small pieces with
• 9:07
  Speaker 5: a scalpel.
• 9:09
  Speaker 7: It.
• 9:09
  Speaker 3: I've got news for you.
• 9:11
  Speaker 7: No brain? What? No brain? We can't find one, And
• 9:16
  Speaker 7: there's no nervous system.
• 9:17
  Speaker 5: That's impossible. How can a highly organized, complex animal exist
• 9:22
  Speaker 5: without a brain or nervous system.
• 9:24
  Speaker 7: He's got everything else. As near as we can figure
• 9:27
  Speaker 7: it out, there are at least a dozen different kinds
• 9:29
  Speaker 7: of flesh, some fish, some fowl, some good red meat,
• 9:34
  Speaker 7: may even a little lizard.
• 9:35
  Speaker 3: An all purpose animal. We found something.
• 9:37
  Speaker 7: Finally, if it's edible, and if it doesn't poison you,
• 9:41
  Speaker 7: it doesn't grow hair all over you, well that's up
• 9:43
  Speaker 7: to you, fellas.
• 9:44
  Speaker 5: I'll get the cages down and you can start killing
• 9:46
  Speaker 5: off the little animals to your hearts content.
• 9:48
  Speaker 7: And there's only one insect, these bees. And we never
• 9:52
  Speaker 7: see these unless when you're a critter. Heard and no birds,
• 9:55
  Speaker 7: no fish in the water, not even a single cell. Paramesie.
• 10:00
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I was talking it over with Max.
• 10:01
  Speaker 5: You know, I'd give my right arm to hear a
• 10:04
  Speaker 5: cricket or a mosquito or even a hornet.
• 10:06
  Speaker 3: This is the strangest thing. Hey, Max, what are you chewing? Toothpick?
• 10:11
  Speaker 3: That's no toothpicks. Spit it out, spitted out, that's grass.
• 10:17
  Speaker 3: I don't know.
• 10:19
  Speaker 5: Must have just picked it automatically to chew on it.
• 10:21
  Speaker 3: Just a habit, I guess.
• 10:24
  Speaker 7: Well, go on with the report. Well it's a walking
• 10:28
  Speaker 7: phil mignon. That animal is an all purpose for sure.
• 10:32
  Speaker 7: It lays eggs, gives milk, and has six different kinds
• 10:35
  Speaker 7: of red meat, makes honey two kinds of foul one
• 10:37
  Speaker 7: a fish, and a whole lot of others we can't identify.
• 10:40
  Speaker 5: Then, of course the bacteria.
• 10:41
  Speaker 3: And what about the bacteria.
• 10:43
  Speaker 5: The critters swarm with them, and all of them the same.
• 10:47
  Speaker 7: You know.
• 10:48
  Speaker 5: It normally takes one hundred different kinds of bacteria to
• 10:51
  Speaker 5: make them metabolism work, but here there's only one. It
• 10:55
  Speaker 5: must do all the work of the hundred other species do.
• 10:59
  Speaker 5: Wouldn't be surprised if that's the brains and the nervous
• 11:01
  Speaker 5: system you couldn't find with your knife, the bacteria doubling
• 11:05
  Speaker 5: in brass for both systems.
• 11:07
  Speaker 7: The whole place balances. Nature's never static, never standing still,
• 11:12
  Speaker 7: But here on this planet it's standing still. Where's the competition,
• 11:16
  Speaker 7: where's the evolution?
• 11:18
  Speaker 3: It's as if.
• 11:19
  Speaker 7: Long ago all these life forms said, let's quit this feuding,
• 11:22
  Speaker 7: let's get together, let's cooperate. Symbiosis.
• 11:27
  Speaker 5: Well, we need another critter to work on.
• 11:31
  Speaker 7: I'll bet you we get it.
• 11:41
  Speaker 3: Luckily Max didn't take Carl's bed.
• 11:45
  Speaker 5: Right after breakfast, the critter came in and died with
• 11:47
  Speaker 5: a saboa fare that was positively marvelous. We unloaded all
• 11:52
  Speaker 5: our supplies and got ready for our long stay. We
• 11:55
  Speaker 5: were feeding all the experimental animals on a critter now,
• 11:58
  Speaker 5: the carnivorous ones, the critter meat, and the vegetarians chomped
• 12:02
  Speaker 5: on critter fruit and critter vegetables.
• 12:05
  Speaker 3: They all grew sleek and sassy.
• 12:08
  Speaker 5: We were sitting around after supper one night when suddenly
• 12:10
  Speaker 5: we heard something.
• 12:14
  Speaker 7: Hey, what is it? Listen?
• 12:18
  Speaker 5: Thunder h listen.
• 12:20
  Speaker 3: I think, all right, quick, everybody up into the ship.
• 12:24
  Speaker 5: What is it? I heard the critters? Look you see
• 12:27
  Speaker 5: the dust. They're coming this way in a stampede. We
• 12:36
  Speaker 5: swarmed up the ladder and tumbled into the port below us.
• 12:39
  Speaker 5: The stampede critters went grinding to camp. It seemed to
• 12:42
  Speaker 5: be millions of them. They came pouring past for almost
• 12:45
  Speaker 5: an hour. Whenever it's all done, we came down and
• 13:00
  Speaker 5: surveyed the damage. Well, the animals are safe, they were
• 13:05
  Speaker 5: under the tailfins. Everything else is gone, tents carried away, food.
• 13:10
  Speaker 3: Supply is gone. How about the emergency rations in the ship.
• 13:13
  Speaker 5: I had to move them down to the supply tent
• 13:14
  Speaker 5: so they'd be handy. They're gone, dashed into the mud. Well,
• 13:18
  Speaker 5: even if we lifted chip immediately, it's at least seven
• 13:21
  Speaker 5: weeks to the nearest contact.
• 13:22
  Speaker 3: Point and no rations.
• 13:26
  Speaker 7: Well, gentlemen, I suggest you try on your bills. There'll
• 13:30
  Speaker 7: be steak for dinner. Steak, that's right, steak or fowl
• 13:36
  Speaker 7: or fish or honey, whichever you like.
• 13:38
  Speaker 5: You mean eat critter.
• 13:41
  Speaker 7: You've got any other ideas?
• 13:45
  Speaker 5: Oh, for one time, Ed, I wish I had your ulcers.
• 13:49
  Speaker 5: You got your diet keitt in your pack, right, Yeah.
• 13:53
  Speaker 7: Well, let's get a good fire going and throw on
• 13:55
  Speaker 7: a chunk of critter.
• 14:05
  Speaker 5: The crew ate about a critter a day. They didn't
• 14:08
  Speaker 5: seem to mind. Just at breakfast time, one would walk
• 14:12
  Speaker 5: in and keel over.
• 14:14
  Speaker 3: The crew ate like there was no tomorrow.
• 14:17
  Speaker 5: I waited for them to break out in a rye
• 14:19
  Speaker 5: sh or to start turning green with purple spots, or
• 14:21
  Speaker 5: grow scales or something. But nothing happened. They felt better
• 14:25
  Speaker 5: than they ever. But then one morning Max Webber turned
• 14:30
  Speaker 5: up sick. Well, gentlemen, I've just taken a sample of
• 14:37
  Speaker 5: my own blood. How do you feel, lousy? I'm loaded
• 14:43
  Speaker 5: with bacteria, critter bacteria. I've checked some of the others.
• 14:49
  Speaker 5: They've got a lower count than I have, but that
• 14:51
  Speaker 5: figures you've got a head start. The rest of them
• 14:55
  Speaker 5: have just been eating critter for a week. They remember
• 14:59
  Speaker 5: the day you ran out of toothpicks and took the
• 15:01
  Speaker 5: chewing on the grass. And well, we can't stop eating critter.
• 15:07
  Speaker 5: It's all the food we have. Well, we might stop
• 15:10
  Speaker 5: eating critter, how and there's my diet kit. We might
• 15:15
  Speaker 5: make it home.
• 15:16
  Speaker 7: Your diet kit wouldn't last us three days.
• 15:19
  Speaker 5: I took a blood sample on the test animals. They've
• 15:24
  Speaker 5: got a bacteria account almost as high as mine.
• 15:28
  Speaker 7: Well, it doesn't make any difference. We still have to
• 15:31
  Speaker 7: eat critter. We haven't got any choice.
• 15:43
  Speaker 5: That night, Weber disappeared. We hunted him for three days.
• 15:49
  Speaker 5: He couldn't have gone very far, but we didn't find him.
• 15:53
  Speaker 5: We did find one queer thing, though, Hey over here
• 15:59
  Speaker 5: down in the gully. What is it that?
• 16:03
  Speaker 7: That white fungus kind of a ball? It wasn't here
• 16:07
  Speaker 7: last week.
• 16:14
  Speaker 3: We couldn't find Webber.
• 16:17
  Speaker 5: And then about four days later, Carl woke me up, ed, ed,
• 16:22
  Speaker 5: get up, get up?
• 16:23
  Speaker 3: What's the animals?
• 16:25
  Speaker 7: The test animals they're insisting they're turning into cocoons or
• 16:28
  Speaker 7: chrystalas or something. What all of the test animals, the
• 16:32
  Speaker 7: guinea pigs, the dogs, they're turning into white fungus balls.
• 16:39
  Speaker 3: The ball we found out in the field.
• 16:42
  Speaker 7: Webber, Max Webber, it's got to be.
• 16:51
  Speaker 5: M We had some trouble finding the place because the
• 16:59
  Speaker 5: lamb was flat and featureless.
• 17:02
  Speaker 3: We finally located it just as dusk was setting in
• 17:06
  Speaker 3: it split. It looks like an egg after a chicken's
• 17:11
  Speaker 3: been hatched. Carl, Well, what do you think?
• 17:17
  Speaker 7: Look inside there are two halves of that that cocoon.
• 17:23
  Speaker 7: Look at the marks. You can see what it is now, Ed,
• 17:32
  Speaker 7: you're the only one who has a chance. I think
• 17:34
  Speaker 7: you should leave right now. Get back to the center
• 17:36
  Speaker 7: and tell them you've got your diet kit. You can
• 17:39
  Speaker 7: make it, no wonder. There are just the critters here.
• 17:42
  Speaker 7: Take one drink of water, chew with single grass stems,
• 17:46
  Speaker 7: take one bite of critter. Do any one of those
• 17:48
  Speaker 7: things and you turn into one of them. Listen, Ed,
• 17:52
  Speaker 7: you take your diet kit and notes and get out
• 17:54
  Speaker 7: of it. What I can't run out on you forget us.
• 17:57
  Speaker 7: We're not human anymore. You must not stay. If you do,
• 18:03
  Speaker 7: in a day or two, a critter will come in
• 18:05
  Speaker 7: and drop dead for you, and you'll go crazy all
• 18:08
  Speaker 7: the way back home, wondering which one of us it was.
• 18:24
  Speaker 5: I walked slowly over to the ship, and I stood
• 18:27
  Speaker 5: at the foot of the ladder, holding the notes and
• 18:29
  Speaker 5: the diet kit against my chest. I thought of all
• 18:33
  Speaker 5: the things we'd been through together, the crew, how they'd
• 18:37
  Speaker 5: always kidded me about the diet kit. I thought of
• 18:40
  Speaker 5: almost ten years eating that awful goo, and that I
• 18:44
  Speaker 5: could never eat like a normal human because of my
• 18:46
  Speaker 5: ulcerated stomach. Maybe they were the lucky ones. I told myself,
• 18:52
  Speaker 5: if a man got turned into a critter, he'd probably
• 18:55
  Speaker 5: come out with a whole stomach and never worry about
• 18:57
  Speaker 5: how much or what he ate, never ate anything except
• 19:01
  Speaker 5: the grass. But maybe I thought that grass tasted just
• 19:05
  Speaker 5: as good to them as steak or a pumpkin pie
• 19:08
  Speaker 5: would taste to me. So I stood there for a
• 19:11
  Speaker 5: while and I thought about it. Ed, what are you
• 19:16
  Speaker 5: doing back here, Carl? I just took that diet kit
• 19:22
  Speaker 5: and threw it out into the waste disposal unit.
• 19:24
  Speaker 7: What are you talking about, my friend?
• 19:28
  Speaker 3: I am very hungry. What have you got for supper?
• 19:48
  Speaker 4: Fred Collins speaking now, I'll have another word for you
• 19:52
  Speaker 4: about X minus one In a moment.
• 19:54
  Speaker 2: I this is waterkee, you know, they say there's nothing
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: new under the sun, and maybe that that's true. But
• 20:01
  Speaker 2: there is something new under the moon, and that's Nightline.
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: In Nightline, we think we found the way to use
• 20:06
  Speaker 2: the intimacy as well as the lightning fast maneuverability of
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: radio in an hour and a half package of high
• 20:11
