Fahrenheit 451 Page #2

MAY ALSO COME IN HANDY

IN THE HOME, COUSINS.

IF YOU WATCH CAREFULLY,

YOU WILL SEE...

HOW A WOMAN CAN USE

A MAN'S SUPERIOR WEIGH TO HER OWN ADVANTAGE.

[ Person Falls ]

[ Woman ]

DID YOU SEE THAT ?

NOW LET'S WATCH THA ONCE AGAIN NORMALLY.

AND NOW:

IN SLOW MOTION.

WATCH IT CAREFULLY

AGAIN, COUSINS.

I'M GOING TO BE PROMOTED.

AS HE STARTS TO ADVANCE,

NOTICE HER POSITION:

ARE YOU LISTENING, LINDA ?

KNEES BENT SLIGHTLY

AND TOES TURNED:

SLIGHTLY INWARDS.

[ Linda ]

OH, THAT'S MARVELOUS,

MONTAG.

[ TV Announcer ]

THERE. NOW YOU SEE HOW EASILY

SHE HAS DISPOSED OF HER--

THE CAPTAIN TOLD ME

WHILE WE WERE OUT ON A CALL.

[ Linda Shouts ]

WHAT DID YOU SAY ?

[ TV Continues ]

I'M TALKING

ABOUT MY PROMOTION.

[ TV Continues ]

DOES THAT MEAN:

AN INCREASE, DEAR ?

HOW MUCH ?

[ Montag ]

HE DIDN'T MENTION THAT.

WE COULD MOVE:

TO A LARGER HOUSE.

WOULD YOU LIKE THAT ?

I'D RATHER HAVE

A SECOND WALL-SET PUT IN.

THEY SAY WHEN YOU HAVE

YOUR SECOND WALL-SCREEN,

IT'S LIKE HAVING

YOUR FAMILY GROW AROUND YOU.

[ TV Continues ]

LINDA, HOW MANY OF THESE PILLS

HAVE YOU TAKEN TODAY ?

[ Linda ]

WHAT'S THAT ?

[ TV Continues ]

[ Linda ]

OH, THOSE. HELP YOURSELF.

I'VE GOT ANOTHER BOTTLE.

HOW MANY HAVE YOU HAD ?

OH, DON'T CARRY ON

LIKE THAT. ONLY A FEW.

ANYWAY,

TONIGHT'S SPECIAL FOR ME.

[ TV Continues ]

[ Linda ]

I'VE GOT A PART INTHE FAMILY.

[ Continues, Indistinct ]

[ Montag ] WHAT ?

OUR CAMPAIGN AGAINST THE ENEMIES

OF THE PUBLIC PEACE...

IS GAINING MOMENTUM.

[ Linda Continues,

Indistinct ]

TODAY'S FIGURES FOR OPERATIONS

IN THE URBAN AREA ALONE...

ACCOUNT FOR THE ELIMINATION

OF THE TOTAL...

OF 2,750 POUNDS

OF CONVENTIONAL EDITIONS.

EIGHT HUNDRED AND THIRTY-SIX

POUNDS OF FIRST EDITIONS...

AND 17 POUNDS OF MANUSCRIPTS

WERE ALSO DESTROYED.

TWENTY-THREE ANTISOCIAL

ELEMENTS WERE DETAINED,

PENDING RE-EDUCATION.

DID YOU SEE THAT ?

COUSIN CLAUDETTE'S

GOT A BOUFFANT TONIGHT.

WHO ?

COUSIN CLAUDETTE.

WHO IS COUSIN CLAUDETTE ?

THE COUSIN ANNOUNCER.

THE ONE YOU DON'T LIKE.

I DON'T LIKE

ANY OF THEM.

WHY DON'T YOU GE THE KITCHEN FIXED ?

YOU ARE AWFUL.

???? [ TV Chiming ]

OH, HURRY, HURRY !

I'LL BE ON IN A MINUTE !

QUICKLY !

QUICKLY !

???? [ TV Theme

]

I DON'T UNDERSTAND.

HOW CAN YOU BE IN A PLAY ?

THEY'VE WRITTEN A PLAY

WITH ONE PART MISSING.

THAT'S ME.

WHEN THE PEOPLE LOOK AT ME,

THEN I HAVE TO SPEAK.

THEY ASK ME A QUESTION,

AND I HAVE TO SAY WHAT I THINK.

THE PLAY, IT'S BEGINNING.

AND NOW,

FOR COUSINS EVERYWHERE,

OUR FAMILY THEATER.

"COME PLAY WITH US."

[ Flicking Lighter ]

NATURALLY, IN WHA YOU ARE ABOUT TO SEE...

ANY SIMILARITY WITH THE TRUTH

OR WITH REAL LIFE WILL BE
