  Speaker 1: It's wearing Scotty's clothes, carrying Scotty's wallet with your picture,
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: and there's private papers in it. A small birthmark on
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: the left arm, same blood type, same fillings in the teeth,
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: and the fingerprints are exactly Scotty's. I had everything double

• 4:49
  Speaker 7: You know it?
• 4:49
  Speaker 4: Look, touch it, thumb through it. There's a picture. There's
• 4:54
  Speaker 4: the stitching where I had it repaired last October, Remember mirror,
• 4:57
  Speaker 4: when I didn't want to throw it away for sentimental reasons,
• 4:59
  Speaker 4: because bought it that night last summer at the little bazaar.
• 5:03
  Speaker 4: Who would know that mirror except your husband? Who would
• 5:06
  Speaker 4: remember that? Except me? Here? Look at this pull asleep
• 5:10
  Speaker 4: up the birth Michael I left arm. Nobody could fake

  Speaker 4: them checked anyway, you want. I am Scott Douglas. I

  Speaker 7: Then who.
• 5:28
  Speaker 6: Who is the other man? That's the police, Scottie.
• 5:49
  Speaker 4: There here to pick me up and take you the
• 5:50
  Speaker 4: airport to meet your husband.
• 5:52
  Speaker 3: Oh, Scottie, I'm frightened.
• 5:54
  Speaker 4: You must never let anyone know that. It's the only
• 5:56
  Speaker 4: way I'll ever be able to figure this thing out.
• 5:58
  Speaker 3: I'll try, Darling, just a moment. I'm coming. Oh Darling.
• 6:04
  Speaker 4: I remember. This whole thing may be a trick. I
• 6:06
  Speaker 4: don't know why or for what reason, but there's always
• 6:08
  Speaker 4: the possibility of this was a deliberate deception.
• 6:11
  Speaker 3: But they can't for me.
• 6:12
  Speaker 4: They did for you, Mirror. You believed all the publicity,
• 6:15
  Speaker 4: all the newspaper reports, everything you saw in the telefox.
• 6:18
  Speaker 4: That's what I can't understand. This whole thing's being carried
• 6:20
  Speaker 4: out so openly, so boldly. The actors, if they're so
• 6:23
  Speaker 4: sure of themselves.
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: I've got to go now. They'll be suspicious, yes, yes.
• 6:26
  Speaker 4: And I'll remember our plan. After you leave. I'll get
• 6:29
  Speaker 4: out of here. I don't know where I'll go, but
• 6:30
  Speaker 4: I'll get in touch with you from time to time.
• 6:32
  Speaker 4: You always know it's me and not the other man,
• 6:33
  Speaker 4: because I'll use the code word bizarre.
• 6:36
  Speaker 6: I know, darling.
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: You don't have to tell me again.
• 6:37
  Speaker 4: All right, And I told this other man as if
• 6:39
  Speaker 4: he really were me, at least do that for a while.
• 6:42
  Speaker 4: It's obviously what they expect of you.
• 6:44
  Speaker 6: Yes, yes, god, he you've told me a dozen times.
• 6:46
  Speaker 3: I know what to do.
• 6:48
  Speaker 8: Goodbye, darling.
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: Yes, what is it?
• 7:04
  Speaker 4: Plane from Cairo with Douglas aboard, coming in, sir.
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: Okay, over here, mirror, we can see the plane land
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: from this window. We'll be landing over there by that ramp.
• 7:18
  Speaker 3: Who are those men?
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: Security police? I'm sorry, mirror, but we can't take any
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: chance of Scotty escaping. You've taken great care ever since
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: his arrest.
• 7:25
  Speaker 5: Plane's coming in now, taxing.
• 7:27
  Speaker 3: I wonder what what he'll look.
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: Like, a little tired perhaps, But it's Scotty. I told
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: you that the plane stopped. You'll see him in a moment, mirror. Now,
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: look when he comes in here, don't break down. He's
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: going to need all the courage and help you can
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: give him there.
• 7:43
  Speaker 3: Look, it doesn't look like Scotty.
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: Yes, prison's coming up, sir, bring him in the moment
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: he arrives. Yes, do you like a drink?
• 7:55
  Speaker 6: Mirror, no, no cigarette, nothing, Please, I'll hear they are
• 8:03
  Speaker 6: all right?
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: Man outside, leave Douglas with me.
• 8:10
  Speaker 4: Hello, Scottie, Hello, Chief, Hello, Miram Hello.
• 8:16
  Speaker 5: Uh I think I'll look.
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: I'll leave you to alone for a while.
• 8:21
  Speaker 4: Thanks, Jeef. I'm glad you hear, Miry. I was wondering
• 8:31
  Speaker 4: if you would be were you? Mirror? What's the matter?
• 8:37
  Speaker 4: So cold, so distant, Darling? I don't understand. Don't you
• 8:44
  Speaker 4: want to talk to me?
• 8:44
  Speaker 5: Mirror?
• 8:46
  Speaker 3: I don't know, I am, I don't know.
• 8:50
  Speaker 4: It's all been a terrible shock to you, hasn't it.
• 8:52
  Speaker 4: What did you learn? Did the chief calling?
• 8:55
  Speaker 3: No? I first learned to the newspaper, then the telebox.
• 9:00
  Speaker 4: You mean it's it's been published broadcast. Good Lord, everybody
• 9:05
  Speaker 4: knows then that's right, Oh, Darling. I'm sorry. I hardly
• 9:10
  Speaker 4: know what happened myself. The last few days are a blur,
• 9:13
  Speaker 4: a blank. All I remember is a room in a
• 9:16
  Speaker 4: hotel in Cairo, a man with a blue turban, the police.
• 9:20
  Speaker 4: I became panic stricken. There was a fighter shot, and
• 9:24
  Speaker 4: then the arrest and the talk about the black market.
• 9:29
  Speaker 4: I don't know what that means. Marry you look so
• 9:34
  Speaker 4: strange for Heaven's sake, what's the matter. Don't tutch me,
• 9:38
  Speaker 4: don't touch you. I'm your husband, you darling, Darling, I.
• 9:45
  Speaker 3: Can't ret You're not Scotty.
• 9:49
  Speaker 4: You're not I'm I'm not Scotty. A mere staff is
• 9:53
  Speaker 4: hysteriat once, What do you mean I'm not Scotty.
• 9:55
  Speaker 3: It's a trick.
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: It's a cruel.
• 10:00
  Speaker 4: You serious, Call the men tell them, I know, mirror.
• 10:04
  Speaker 4: What have they done to you? Said to you?
• 10:06
  Speaker 3: I could ask you those questions, and I can also
• 10:09
  Speaker 3: ask you.
• 10:09
  Speaker 8: Who are you?
• 10:10
  Speaker 4: Who am? This is crazy?
• 10:15
  Speaker 3: Let me see your birthmark?

  Speaker 1: What all right?
• 10:19
  Speaker 4: Look it's me Dolly. You know that's real.
• 10:23
  Speaker 3: But I let me see the wallet?
• 10:27
  Speaker 4: You mean this here? It is your picture, even the
• 10:32
  Speaker 4: stitching I had done when I wouldn't throw it away?
• 10:34
  Speaker 4: You remember, Darling, it is the wallet.
• 10:38
  Speaker 3: It looks just like it.
• 10:39
  Speaker 4: What did you expect?
• 10:40
  Speaker 3: They could fake it? They have ways a wallet could
• 10:44
  Speaker 3: be faked.
• 10:45
  Speaker 4: Look, Miream, I don't understand all this, but I am
• 10:49
  Speaker 4: your husband. I am Scottie.
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: Let me prove it.
• 10:52
  Speaker 4: Do you ask me anything about us? Anything? Where did
• 10:55
  Speaker 4: we go last summer to Paris? For two weeks? We
• 10:57
  Speaker 4: stayed at the hotel George fifth.
• 10:58
  Speaker 3: What did we do when we first got We.
• 11:00
  Speaker 4: Opened the window and sang a silly song about Paris.
• 11:02
  Speaker 4: We made it up as we went along, and then
• 11:05
  Speaker 4: and then I kissed you.
• 11:07
  Speaker 3: We were alone. No one could have seen.
• 11:10
  Speaker 4: We went out, had a drink. You ordered champagne in
• 11:13
  Speaker 4: the afternoon. The way to try to talk you out.
• 11:18
  Speaker 3: I don't know how you know these things. You seem
• 11:23
  Speaker 3: to be Scotty And yeah.
• 11:24
  Speaker 4: Oh, darling, darling, I saw only a few hours ago.
• 11:29
  Speaker 4: I was on the plane. You saw that, all right,
• 11:33
  Speaker 4: all right, darling. If he says, I'll take it easy, honey,
• 11:35
  Speaker 4: don't cry, don't don't there. If you say Scotty was
• 11:40
  Speaker 4: at home, then that's where I was home home.
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: I've got the reports from Cairol Chief complete, as completely
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: as I'll ever be. They just came in by a
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: high frequency telebox, and we had photoprints made here.
• 12:04
  Speaker 5: They are never mind, just give me the highlights.
• 12:06
  Speaker 7: Well, the man in the blue turbine was Mustafa Cornelius.
• 12:10
  Speaker 4: He made his living in art, sold pictures and things.
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: What was he doing in Scotty's room, Oh, primarily picking
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: up some stuff.
• 12:15
  Speaker 4: You know, the place was filled.
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: With pictures, and Scotty said he doesn't know how they
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: got there. He said that even when we showed him
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: Egyptian police reports that he and Mustafa had been followed
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: for two days, and on several occasions Scotty was carrying
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: pictures himself, so he was lying. No, he wasn't. He
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: gave him a lie detective test and he came through
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: one hundred percent. I didn't know that, but it's true.
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: And why was Scotty and Cairo anyway? He had no
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: orders to go there? How do you explain it didn't?
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: He said he couldn't remember.
• 12:40
  Speaker 4: This is one for the books. Sounds like two other guys.
• 12:44
  Speaker 5: That's not so funny.
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: What do you mean that's not so funny? When Scotty
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: got off the plane and came in here, I turned
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: on the intercom and left him and Mirror together. I
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: listened to their conversation from the outer office.
• 12:54
  Speaker 5: Learn anything.
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: I don't know, except that Mirror seemed to doubt it
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: was Scotty. I weighed them minute it was Sky know
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: it was Scotti, and you know it was Scotti. But
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: why wouldn't Scotty's own wife know it was Scotty.
• 13:05
  Speaker 4: I don't know.
• 13:06
  Speaker 5: I don't either. Two other guys huh.
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: Well, we know that the Scotty who got off the
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: plane is safely locked up in this building. You and
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: I are going to see his wife and try to
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: figure this puzzle out.
• 13:20
  Speaker 8: Come on, hello, Mirah, mister Enwright, I want to.
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: Talk to you. Close the door, Paul.
• 13:38
  Speaker 3: Right, you shouldn't have come here.
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: Why not? I have some questions to ask you.
• 13:44
  Speaker 3: I'm expecting someone to please go.
• 13:47
  Speaker 5: It'll only take a few minutes.
• 13:48
  Speaker 4: Mire.
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: I want to help Scotty, but I can't do it alone.
• 13:51
  Speaker 3: I'll come to your office, but the.
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: Chief wants the answers. Now, missus Douglas, Oh, then come
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: in here.
• 13:57
  Speaker 5: Thanks.
• 14:06
  Speaker 3: When my visitor comes, I must ask you to stay
• 14:08
  Speaker 3: in here.
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: Of course, I'm sorry to have disturbed you like this,
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: but there are some very strange things about this matter.
• 14:16
  Speaker 3: What do you mean strange?
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: Why didn't you believe that was Scotty in my office?
• 14:21
  Speaker 3: Then he told you that he isn't Scotty.
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: He told me nothing. I listened in and it was Scotty.
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: It's the Scotty I know now. Why don't you believe that?
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: That's one of the things that puzzles me. One of
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: the strange things.
• 14:33
  Speaker 3: Where's Scotty?
• 14:33
  Speaker 7: Now?
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: That's your doorbell? Person, you're experience Scotty's attention. House in

  Speaker 3: You stay here, Please stay here till I get back.
• 14:48
  Speaker 4: She if she's as nervous as a rate of skull. Quiet.
• 14:51
  Speaker 5: Put your ear to the door and listen. It's a man.
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: You can't make out what they're saying.
• 14:57
  Speaker 5: Something vaguely familiar. Oh no, it can't be.
• 15:01
  Speaker 4: What do you mean, Chief?
• 15:01
  Speaker 5: Think your gun?

• 15:11
  Speaker 1: I don't know how you did it, but escaping from
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: detention is a very serious.
• 15:14
  Speaker 4: I didn't escape. I've never been there. I've never been
• 15:17
  Speaker 4: to Cairo. I don't know what's going on and right,
• 15:20
  Speaker 4: but I'm glad you're here so this whole mess can
• 15:21
  Speaker 4: be clear.

  Speaker 1: of you two is an impossible I will say this.
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: The resemblance is fantastic. You the one we had in
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: the cell. We got your fingerprints, teeth, identifications, birthmark and
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: so on. When you were arrested. They all verified that
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: you are the real Scott Douglas.
• 18:12
  Speaker 4: I've told you that all along. I'm Scott Douglas. Chief,
• 18:16
  Speaker 4: whatever is going on you are.
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: In a few minutes, we'll have the results of the
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: fingerprint and identification check we had you take before I
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: brought Scottie up from downstairs. Yes, I've got the report.
• 18:26
  Speaker 4: Chief.
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: Well, everything checks, sir. Now come on talk sense, will you?
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: What do you mean? Everything checks?
• 18:30
  Speaker 7: Fingerprints, teeth, identification, birthmarks, everything checks, sir.
• 18:35
  Speaker 4: They're both Scott Douglas.
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: All right now, I remember, don't interrupt me. The only
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: way I can tell you to a part is a
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: by the clothes you wear. You you're wearing a tropical suit,
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: the one you had on when we picked you up
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: in Cairo. Yes, sir, but I'm going to call you
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: tropic and you with the Tweed that's your name, Tweed?
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: That clear right? Cheer. The last two hours of questioning
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: has revealed that the memory of your lives is exactly
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: the same up to four days ago. Whatever questions you
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: were asked separately, you both answered the same intimate questions,
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: family questions, every kind but as of four days ago,
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: the police interrogators report that you Tropical, you are hazy,
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: almost blank until the arrest and murder in Cairo Atrites.
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: On the other hand, you Tweed, you have a clear
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: memory except for a few hours three days ago. Here
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: let me read it. Pursuon to File one nine eight,
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: I was ordered to visit a mister David Eichner, suspected
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: of dealing in black market paintings at two twenty three
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: West eighteenth Street, and to pose as a buyer of
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: rare paintings. Mister Eichner conducted himself in a reasonable and
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: normal manner and exhibited several paintings, allegedly genuine old Masters.
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: During our conversation, I heard a faint, oscillating sound in
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: the room and inquired whether it was the air conditioning unit,
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: and then I blacked out. Now at this point your
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: two memories separate. You both remember everything up to the
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: moment Scott Douglas blacked out, but after that Tweed's memory
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: does not pick up until two hours has passed. Then
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: he reports the next thing I knew, I awoke lying
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: on the floor. I thought I had been slugged, But
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: subsequent examination by police medical authority showed no injury of
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: any sort. The assumption was that I had fainted, but
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: no reason for this possibility was advanced. The paintings, together
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: with mister Eichner were nowhere to be found when I
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: regained consciousness. Subsequent police investigation failed to reveal any trace
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: of mister Eiitner or his paintings. So there it is,
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: and you tropical. You remember nothing for the next several
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: days until we picked you up in Cairo.
• 20:48
  Speaker 4: I remember that report very well.
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: I wrote it.
• 20:51
  Speaker 4: But he couldn't have known about the first part of
• 20:53
  Speaker 4: that report. I went along, no one else I was there.
• 20:56
  Speaker 4: That was my repslse you.
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: Too enough seeing double without YouTube, talking double and remembering
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: double two hours two hours? What happened in those two hours?
• 21:11
  Speaker 4: Chief, I've got an idea, But is it? Probably nothing
• 21:14
  Speaker 4: to it after three days, But why don't we visit
• 21:17
  Speaker 4: two twenty three West eighteenth Street again. Let's see whether
• 21:20
  Speaker 4: mister Eytoner possibly left something behind when he fled with
• 21:23
  Speaker 4: the paintings.
• 21:44
  Speaker 5: This is the place looks pretty empty now.
• 21:57
  Speaker 4: This is where he had several old paintings hanging on
• 21:59
  Speaker 4: the wall. This is where I was standing when I
• 22:02
  Speaker 4: blacked out. That's right. She if I walked over there
• 22:05
  Speaker 4: from here and then at half?
• 22:07
  Speaker 5: What's that that sound?
• 22:08
  Speaker 4: Keep him over there? That class.
• 22:12
  Speaker 7: Colorad Klarasu, do not shoot, sahib No, do not kill me.
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: Do not kill me, sah What are you doing here
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: in this room?
• 22:21
  Speaker 4: Talk? Talk?
• 22:23
  Speaker 3: Do not kill me.
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: If you don't talk, I make no promises.
• 22:26
  Speaker 7: I have children, I have a and.
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: I've got a gun.
• 22:29
  Speaker 7: Well, if I talk, you let me leave talk. I
• 22:34
  Speaker 7: come to destroy the instrument.
• 22:37
  Speaker 4: What instruments? It is in here?
• 22:40
  Speaker 7: Heip the instrument of Mustafa Cornelius.
• 22:43
  Speaker 4: The man of the broad Turban.
• 22:45
  Speaker 7: I swear to come back and destroy it if he
• 22:48
  Speaker 7: ever died. It is built into this closet, behind this
• 22:52
  Speaker 7: secret panel. It made Mustafa and knee where he reached.
• 22:55
  Speaker 5: Let's see that instrument open. The panel.
• 23:00
  Speaker 4: Looks like a control board.
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: What's I do not know the words to describe it.
• 23:06
  Speaker 7: Only mustafan now, because he was very wise and very.
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: Scientific, you know how to operate this?
• 23:13
  Speaker 7: Oh yes, sir hip, Mustafa showed me what to do,
• 23:17
  Speaker 7: and I work longer. I was doing that for our
• 23:20
  Speaker 7: both becoming very rich.
• 23:22
  Speaker 4: Show us what it does and remember any danger results
• 23:25
  Speaker 4: this man has a gun. You'll be the first to die.
• 23:28
  Speaker 7: I understand, sir hip. Give me something for the instrument.
• 23:33
  Speaker 5: What do you mean, give you something?
• 23:35
  Speaker 7: I tried to explain. Give me something picture.
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: Perhaps there are no pictures here?
• 23:43
  Speaker 7: Then ring? Perhaps a watch, would his shoe, a dog?
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: Anything? Does this make any sense?
• 23:52
  Speaker 4: Silo, Chief, Here, here's a ring and a watch.
• 23:56
  Speaker 7: Thank you, sir hip. I placed them in here, and
• 24:01
  Speaker 7: close this more door. I turn on the instrument.
• 24:12
  Speaker 4: That's a sound. The sound I heard his right chafe
• 24:16
  Speaker 4: the son before I blacked out.
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: Now what do you do?
• 24:19
  Speaker 7: A moment until the bell sound it he's finished. No,
• 24:30
  Speaker 7: you see there are no two watches, two rings.
• 24:37
  Speaker 4: Let me see them great xynamos and I at rather
• 24:42
  Speaker 4: exactly alike, even though the scratches, the dirt marks everything you.
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: Say, you're right identical perfect copies.
• 24:54
  Speaker 7: No, no, sir hip, they are not copies.
• 24:57
  Speaker 4: All our original But that can't be. The ones I
• 25:00
  Speaker 4: gave you were the originals. The others are the copies.
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: That's right.
• 25:04
  Speaker 4: Just a minute, Chief, I've got a sparking. I like
• 25:07
  Speaker 4: kill a duplicator. What did you say? I like the duplicator.
• 25:13
  Speaker 4: That's right. That means that somehow. Well, it's possible theoretically,
• 25:18
  Speaker 4: but it means that the molecules and atoms of the
• 25:20
  Speaker 4: originals are perfectly duplicated. And we know that if somehow
• 25:25
  Speaker 4: the atoms and molecules could be exactly arranged, you'd actually
• 25:30
  Speaker 4: have two originals where only one existed before.
• 25:33
  Speaker 7: Yes, yes, that is what Mustafa see. Those are the
• 25:38
  Speaker 7: words that I do not know how to use.
• 25:40
  Speaker 4: All right now, listen to me. It doesn't rat. Does
• 25:42
  Speaker 4: this machine work on anything other than inanimate objects?
• 25:46
  Speaker 7: I do not understand.
• 25:48
  Speaker 4: Doesn't work on living things, dogs, birds, human beings.
• 25:54
  Speaker 7: He has work only dogs, Mustafa, he had a dog
• 25:59
  Speaker 7: he likes so much. He makes himself another dog like
• 26:03
  Speaker 7: it with this istru.
• 26:04
  Speaker 4: Me and and it would work on human beings too.
• 26:09
  Speaker 7: But the dog, one of them, I do not know
• 26:13
  Speaker 7: which one of them.
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: The dog he died very.
• 26:17
  Speaker 4: Horribly, So he what do you mean, died horribly.
• 26:23
  Speaker 7: One day, about a month after the first dog become
