90% OF WHA YOUR SO-CALLED DOCTOR PRESCRIBES IS NO BETTER THAN SUGAR WATER.

WE'RE WORSE OFF THAN WITCH DOCTORS WITH THEIR ROOTS AND HERBS.
TO THINK OTHERWISE IS PURE ARROGANCE.
BELIEVE ME, I KNOW.
THEN BE A SURGEON.
THAT'S NOT WITCHCRAFT.
THAT'S REAL WORK.
YOU'VE STUDIED THAT.
I DON'T CARE IF IT'S LESS PRESTIGE.
I'LL KILL MY PATIENTS WITH INFECTION BEFORE THEIR DISEASE KILLS THEM.
NO, THANK YOU.
THEN YOU DON'T WAN TO GET MARRIED.
ELLEN, DARLING, YOUR MOTHER WOULD RATHER YOU MARRY A FISHMONGER THAN A SURGEON.
AT LEAST THEY STINK HONESTLY.
EVEN IF I DID RETURN TO HARLEY STREET, DO YOU REALLY THINK SHE'D LET YOU MARRY ME? HMM? SHE HATES ME.
THEN WHY DON'T YOU PROVE HER WRONG? THEN WE CAN GET MARRIED.
HMM? AND DO EVERYTHING.
I CAN HARDLY WAIT.
PROMISE ME YOU'LL EAT SOMETHING.
EXCUSE ME, LADIES.
I'M LOOKING FOR A REDHEADED WOMAN, ABOUT THIS TALL, PRETTY, ROUNDISH FACE.
WEARING A LONG BLUE DRESS AND A BROWN TARTAN JACKET.
HAVE YOU SEEN HER? I'VE GOT EVERYTHING SHE'S GOT, LOVE, ONLY BETTER.
YES, I'M SURE YOU HAVE.

TO WHAT? YOU CAN'T DREAM AWAY YOUR PAST.
YOU MADE A MISTAKE ONCE.
YES.
A FATAL ONE.
A LITTLE GIRL DIED BECAUSE OF ME.
WE ALL FAIL SOMETIMES.
WE ARE ALL HUMAN.
ARE WE? IS THE MAN WHO DOES THIS HUMAN? THE RIPPER.
THE RIPPER KILLED HER? ANNIE CHAPMAN? WASN'T SHE HERE LAST NIGHT? WAS SHE? DO YOU KNOW WHY I DO THIS TO MYSELF? BECAUSE I HATE MYSELF.
I HATE BEING WEAK.
THEN CHANGE.
I CAN'T.
THEN GIVE IN TO IT.
THAT'S WHAT I INTEND TO DO.
LIZZIE.
I'VE MISSED YOU, JACK.
I THOUGH YOU'D GROWN TIRED OF ME.
OH, NO, NO.
I'VE MISSED YOU TOO.
I'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR YOU ALL DAY.
YOU MUST FORGIVE ME.
IT'S JUST THAT SOMETIMES I FORGET, YOU KNOW? I PROMISE YOU, JACK, AFTER TONIGH YOU'LL NEVER FORGET ME.
OH, BUT YOU'RE A NAUGHTY ONE.
GOOD GOD! ( glass breaking ) WHAT WHAT ARE YOU? ( deep metallic voice ) I'M OLD, JACK.
I'M OLDER THAN YOU, OLDER THAN LONDON.
I'VE BEEN AROUND A LONG, LONG TIME.
BUT I'M AFRAID YOUR FUTURE ISN'T QUITE SO ROSY.
DON'T YOU COME ANY BLOODY CLOSER.
JACK? SHE'S THE RIPPER! SHE'S THE RIPPER! SHE'S THE ONE MURDERING THE WOMEN! LET ME GO! IT APPEARS MR.
YORK IS LATE AGAIN.
YES, MAMAN.
I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM MY COUSIN CHARLOTTE.
SHE WROTE ME FROM VIENNA.
SHE WENT THERE TO SEE A DOCTOR FOR HYSTERIA, THOUGH I DON'T THINK SHE'S HYSTERICAL AT ALL.
IT IS A SIGN OF THE UTMOST DISRESPECT.
I AM SURE JACK MEANS NO DISRESPECT, MAMAN.
I AM SURE HE DOES.
HIS NAME IS DOCTOR FREUD.
I BELIEVE HE'S GERMAN OR AUSTRIAN.
SOMETHING LIKE THAT.
HE HAS WASTED HIS FORTUNE, AND NOW HE SEEMS INTEN ON WASTING WHATEVER GOODWILL OTHERS MAY ONCE HAVE HAD TOWARDS HIM.
OH, NOW I RECALL.
JACK TOLD US YESTERDAY THAT HE HAD A MEETING WITH HIS SOLICITOR TODAY.
THAT'S WHY HE'S LATE.
I BELIEVE IT MAY BE ABOUT MONEY.
YOU ARE A TRUE FRIEND OF ELLEN'S, SOPHIE, BUT DON'T LIE FOR HER.
IT IS BAD MANNERS.
OR AT LEAS LEARN TO LIE BETTER.
I'LL TRY, LADY JULIA.
MAMAN, I AM SURE JACK MEANS NO DISRESPECT.
IT'S JUST THAT EVER SINCE HE'S JUST BEEN DIFFERENT.
I AM NOT THE COMPLETE WITCH, MY DEAR.
I KNOW HIS LIFE HAS BEEN VISITED BY TRAGEDY, WITH REPERCUSSIONS IN THE HIGHEST CIRCLES.
BUT ONE SOLDIERS ON.
ONE DOESN'T WALLOW IN IT.
ONE MAKES SOMETHING OF ONESELF.
MM-HMM.
DABBLING IS FOR CHILDREN AND CHILDREN CANNOT MARRY.
AND ANYONE FROM VIENNA IS A QUACK.
YOUR COUSIN CHARLOTTE IS A NINCOMPOOP, AND SO ARE YOU.
NOW, LET US ENJOY LUNCH.
JACK, WHERE WERE YOU? YOU MISSED LUNCH.
OH, I'M IT'S A SIGN OF THE UTMOS DISRESPECT.
I'M SORRY.
I HAVE SOMETHING VERY IMPORTAN I HAVE TO TELL YOU.
I I HAVE TO GO AWAY FOR A WHILE AND I WANT YOU TO COME WITH ME.
WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT? ANYWHERE YOU WANT, BUT WE HAVE TO LEAVE IMMEDIATELY, ALL RIGHT? WHAT'S GOT INTO YOU? IS SOMETHING WRONG? JACK, WHAT IS IT? JACK ( clearing throat ) EXCUSE ME, SIR.
YES, WHAT IS IT? AN INSPECTOR LANGFORD TO SEE YOU.
MR.
YORK? YES? MR.
JOHN YORK? YES.
I ARREST YOU FOR THE MURDERS OF MARTHA TABRAM, POLLY NICHOLS, ANNIE CHAPMAN AND ELIZABETH STRIDE.
WHAT? WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT? I DIDN'T MURDER ANYONE.
THE RIPPER DID IT.
INDEED, YOU ARE THE RIPPER.
TAKE HIM AWAY.
NO, DON'T BE A FOOL.
I'M NOT THE RIPPER.
I'M NOT THE RIPPER.
NO, YOU'RE MAKING A MISTAKE.
SIR? ( Jack ) I'M NOT THE RIPPER.
( Ellen ) INSPECTOR LANGFORD, THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SEEING ME.
HOW CAN I HELP YOU? MR.
YORK IS NOT THE RIPPER.
I KNOW THIS BECAUSE BECAUSE? THE EVENING THA ELIZABETH STRIDE WAS MURDERED HE WAS WITH ME ALL NIGHT.
I SEE.
HAS MR.
YORK TOLD YOU THAT THE RIPPER IS ACTUALLY SOME KIND OF CREATURE THAT LEAPS FROM WOMAN TO WOMAN, KILLING THEM, THEN THE WOMEN SPEW GREEN BILE? INSPECTOR, THE REASON MR.
YORK DID NO INFORM YOU OF OUR LIAISON IS BECAUSE HE IS TOO MUCH OF A GENTLEMAN.
I HAVE DISCUSSED THE MATTER WITH MY MOTHER, THE COUNTESS OF AVONRILL.
SHE WILL SPEAK TO THE HOME SECRETARY A LONG-TIME FRIEND WHO WEN TO SCHOOL WITH MY LATE FATHER.
HE WILL SPEAK TO SIR CHARLES, WHO WILL SPEAK TO DEPUTY CHIEF INSPECTOR SWANSON, WHO WILL, I PRESUME, SPEAK TO YOU.
NO DOUBT HE WILL.
I WISH I HAD SOMEONE AS DEVOTED AS YOU, LADY ELLEN.
I'M SURE YOU'LL FIND SOMEONE AS WORTHY AS YOURSELF, INSPECTOR.
PERHAPS I SHALL.
PERHAPS I SHALL.
JACK! ELLEN! OH.
I KNOW WHO THE RIPPER IS.
NO, LISTEN TO ME.
JACK, THERE IS NO CREATURE.
YES, THERE IS, AND I HAVE PROOF.
WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL THEM? BECAUSE I BECAUSE THERE WAS ALSO BLOOD ON THE RAG, FROM THE WOMAN, AS WELL AS THA OF THE CREATURE'S.
THAT WOULD HAVE INCRIMINATED ME MORE.
NOW I KNOW IT'S NOT TRUE.
I DIDN'T KILL THEM.
YOU MUST BELIEVE ME.
I'M TELLING YOU THE TRUTH.
WERE YOU DRINKING ABSINTHE AGAIN LAST NIGHT? NO.
ELLEN, WAIT.
I'M TELLING YOU.
WHAT? IT WAS THE CREATURE, ELLEN.
I CHASED AFTER IT, BUT THEN I LOST IT.
ELLEN.
WHY DO YOU INSIST ON THIS? WHY? YOU ARE TEARING MY HEART OUT.
YOU ARE THROWING YOUR LIFE AWAY ON ABSINTHE, ON YOUR INVENTIONS.
IT'S NOT REAL, JACK.
THE CREATURE IS NOT REAL.
I AM NOT THROWING MY LIFE AWAY.
I'M TRYING TO GET IT BACK.
DON'T YOU SEE? YOU AND THIS THING ARE ALL THAT'S REAL IN MY LIFE.
IF I CAN PROVE THIS CREATURE IS THE RIPPER, IT WILL END MY DISGRACE.
THAT IS WHY I HAVE TO PURSUE IT.
I HAVE TO SEIZE THIS OPPORTUNITY TO REDEEM MYSELF.
SURELY YOU CAN UNDERSTAND THAT.
GOODBYE, JACK.
FROM THE NEWSPAPER FILE, SIR.
THANK YOU.
DO YOU BELIEVE TRAGEDY CAN DRIVE A MAN MAD, ALBERT? ( Albert ) I SUPPOSE SO, SIR.
LADY ELLEN, I NEED TO SPEAK WITH YOU.
( Ellen ) I BEG YOUR PARDON.
IT'S ABOUT THE RIPPER, AND MR.
YORK.
ON YOUR WAY, MISS.
IT'S ALL RIGHT, WICKET.
WON'T YOU COME IN? THANK YOU, MY LADY.
YES.
JACK.
ELLEN! LOOK, I'VE FOUND A WAY TO DETECT THE CREATURE.
I'VE COME TO A DECISION, JACK.
REALLY? WHAT DECISION IS THAT? YOU WERE RIGHT.
I WAS? THERE ARE NO GUARANTEES IN LIFE.
WHO KNOWS WHEN IT WILL END? THE ONE THING THAT MATTERS IS YOU AND ME.
WE MUST SEIZE OUR OPPORTUNITY.
YES.
OH, GOD.
I THOUGHT YOU'D GONE FOR GOOD, THAT YOU'D GONE TO FORGET ME.
I PROMISE YOU, AFTER TONIGHT, YOU'LL NEVER FORGET ABOUT ME.
NO! STAY WHERE YOU ARE! I DON'T WANT TO HARM YOU.
STAY WHERE YOU ARE.
HAVE YOU GONE MAD? GET BACK! I'VE GOT A DETECTOR, SEE? I KNOW IT'S YOU.
JACK, IT'S ME ELLEN.
IT'S NOT THE CREATURE.
EVEN THE SLIGHTEST BIT OF BILE GLOWS RED.
IT'S COMING FROM YOUR HANDBAG.
JACK WHERE DID YOU GET THIS? I GOT IT WHERE DID YOU GET IT?! I GOT IT FROM A STRANGE WOMAN WHO WANTED TO TELL ME SOMETHING ABOUT YOU.
ME? SHE WAS VERY ODD, SO THE BUTLER STAYED WITH ME.
AND THEN, AFTER SHE LEFT, I FOUND THAT HANDKERCHIEF.
AND I REMEMBERED INSPECTOR LANGFORD SAID YOU THOUGHT THE CREATURE SPIT OUT A GREEN BILE.
YOU SPOKE TO THE CREATURE? DID IT SAY ANYTHING? NOT REALLY.
THINK, THINK! AFTER A FEW MOMENTS SHE LEFT, AND SHE FORGO HER HANDKERCHIEF THAT'S ALL.
I THOUGHT I'D LOST YOU.
LISTEN, NOW, THERE'S NO QUESTION OF IT.
YOU HAVE TO GO FAR AWAY, YES.
NO, I'M NO GOING ANYWHERE.
I WANT TO STAY AND HELP YOU.
IT'S NOT SAFE.
JUST DO AS YOU'RE TOLD.
NO, FOR ONCE YOU'VE GOT TO LET ME IN.
YOU ARE MY ANGEL.
WE'RE GOING TO SEE THIS THROUGH TOGETHER.
TO THE END.
TO THE VERY END.
MAY I BE FRANK, INSPECTOR? I WOULDN'T WISH I ANY OTHER WAY, LADY AVONRILL.
I CAN SEE THA YOU'RE A GENTLEMAN OF SENSITIVITY AND INTELLIGENCE, SO I KNOW THAT I MAY RELY ON YOUR DISCRETION.
IF I MAY BE BRIEF, MY DAUGHTER, LADY ELLEN, IS BUT 23, WITH ALL THE WEAKNESSES, IGNORANCES AND PASSIONS THA THAT ENCOMPASSES.
SHE HAS ALWAYS BEEN A HEADSTRONG GIRL.
I BELIEVE YOU SPOKE OF BEING BRIEF, MA'AM.
YES, OF COURSE.
HOW KIND OF YOU TO REMIND ME.
THEN I SHALL GET TO MY POINT.
DO YOU BELIEVE THAT MR.
YORK IS THE RIPPER? HE IS A SUSPECT.
HE IS THE RIPPER.
UNTIL WE DISCOVER HE IS THE RIPPER.
THE MAN WHO CAPTURES THE RIPPER WILL MOST CERTAINLY RECEIVE A KNIGHTHOOD.
I GUARANTEE IT.
I SERVE ONLY THE TRUTH, MA'AM.
"HONESTY IS PRAISED AND STARVES.
" "NOBILITY IS THE ONE AND ONLY VIRTUE.
" I SEE YOU KNOW YOUR JUVENAL.
YOU HAVE HAD A BETTER EDUCATION THAN I THOUGHT.
APPARENTLY SO.
THANK YOU FOR COMING.
I SHALL REMEMBER I ALWAYS, MA'AM.
I HOPE YOU SHALL, AND WHO I AM.
( Jack ) ALL THE MURDERS HAVE TAKEN PLACE WITHIN A MILE OF WHITECHAPEL.
HERE, HERE, HERE AND HERE.
WE'LL START AT ITS HEAR AND WORK OUR SEARCH OUTWARDS IN A CIRCLE.
I WILL PHOTOGRAPH THE AREAS WHERE I'VE SEEN THE CREATURE, OR WHERE THE BODIES WERE FOUND.
I'VE MODIFIED THE EMULSION SOMEWHA SO THEY'RE MORE SENSITIVE TO FLUORESCENT LIGHT.
HOPEFULLY, WITH ANY LUCK, WE CAN PICK UP ITS TRAIL.
AND IF WE DO? THEN THAT'S WHERE THE REAL ADVENTURE BEGINS.
THIS WILL DO, WORTHINGTON.
JUST ONE LAST TIME.
I WON'T BE LONG.
WHERE'S YOUR CANE NOW, JACK? RIGHT HERE! SURPRISE.
WHAT IN GOD'S NAME ARE YOU? I'M A NIGHTMARE, JACK.
YOU'RE NOT EVEN OF THIS WORLD, ARE YOU? BRAVO.
WHY DON'T YOU GO BACK TO YOUR OWN KIND? WHY DO YOU THINK? YOU CHOOSE TO BE HERE.
DID ROBINSON CRUSOE CHOOSE HIS ISLAND? YOU'RE STRANDED.
ENCORE.
ENCORE.
I MUST APPLAUD YOUR PERSISTENCE, JACK.
NO ONE'S EVER COME QUITE THIS CLOSE BEFORE.
IT GIVES ME A CERTAIN FRISSON OF EXCITEMENT.
AND ARE THERE ARE THERE OTHERS? OTHER RACES BESIDES YOUR OWN OUT THERE? BEYOND IMAGINING.
BUT WHY ME? WHY DID YOU HAVE TO PICK ME? YOU'RE THE PERFEC LIGHTNING ROD.
THEY ALREADY HAVE ENOUGH CLUES TO SUSPECT YOU OF THE MURDERS.
I'LL JUST KEEP ENTERTAINING MYSELF UNTIL THEY FINALLY HAVE ENOUGH CLUES TO CONVICT YOU.
GOODBYE, JACK.
NO! COME, JACK.
YOU DON'T WANT TO KILL ME.
WE'RE TOO MUCH ALIKE.
WE'RE BOTH OUTCASTS BY TEMPERAMENT AND BY CHOICE.
IT WOULD BE LIKE KILLING YOURSELF.
YOU FORGET ONE THING I HATE MYSELF.
BY THE WAY, DOES YOUR FIANCEE ALWAYS KEEP THAT BUTLER AROUND? BETTER LUCK NEXT TIME.
HAVE FUN, JACK THE RIPPER.
ELLEN, WAKE UP! WHAT IS IT? YOU HAVE TO LEAVE AT ONCE.
GO TO AVONRILL, AND DON'T COME BACK UNTIL I CALL FOR YOU.
IT WAS HERE, I SPOKE TO IT.
IT'S INSIDE A WOMAN IN A CREAM COLOURED DRESS.
WORTHINGTON, TAKE LADY ELLEN HOME.
WE MUST GO SEE INSPECTOR LANGFORD.
HE WOULDN'T EVEN KNOW WHAT HE HAD.
ARROGANCE IS WHAT KILLED THAT LITTLE GIRL.
DON'T ARGUE WITH ME! DON'T YOU SEE? I DON'T WANT YOU AROUND.
I DON'T WANT YOU.
YOU DON' MEAN THAT.
YES, I DO.
YOU WITH YOUR SILLY CLOTHES FROM PARIS, AND YOUR IDEAS ABOUT HELPING ME.
IT'S LIKE HAVING A CHILD IN TOW.
YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW REAL PEOPLE LIVE.
EVEN YOUR PASSIONS AREN'T REAL.
IT'S NOT ONE TENTH OF WHAT A REAL WOMAN HAS.
YOU CAN'T EVEN KISS PROPERLY.
WORTHINGTON, TAKE ME HOME.
TAKE HER.
MAY GOD FORGIVE ME.
SHE WAS FOUND ABOU AN HOUR AGO, SIR.
JOHN CRECY VILLMORIN YORK.
JACK THE RIPPER.
I'D LIKE YOUR FULL REPOR AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
YES, SIR.
UH, INSPECTOR LANGFORD, I NEED TO SPEAK TO YOU PRIVATELY.
SIR.
PLEASE, PROCEED.
I WAS NO WITH MR.
YORK ON THE EVENING ELIZABETH STRIDE WAS MURDERED.
I KNOW.
WE STILL DIDN'T HAVE ENOUGH EVIDENCE.
NOW WE DO.
MR.
YORK'S WATCH WAS FOUND IN THE FIS OF ANOTHER VICTIM.
TONIGHT? JUDGING FROM THE BODY, YES.
LADY ELLEN? TONIGHT WE WERE OUT.
WE WERE LOOKING FOR THE CREATURE AND WE BECAME SEPARATED.
HE SAID HE HAD SEEN IT, THAT IT HAD APPROACHED HIM.
LADY ELLEN, MR.
YORK IS A SICK MAN, AND A DANGEROUS ONE.
YES, HE'S SICK, BUT NOT DANGEROUS.
HE WOULDN'T MURDER ANYONE.
HE NEEDS HELP.
THE RIPPER HAS MURDERED FIVE WOMEN.
HE HAS CUT THEM OPEN AND LEFT THEM BLEEDING.
HE'S A MONSTER.
BUT I SHARE YOUR VIEW.
NO SANE MAN COULD PERFORM SUCH A DEED.
BUT AN INSANE MAN MUS BE STOPPED.
YOU WON'T TRY TO KILL HIM? NO.
YOU MUST TRUST ME, LADY ELLEN.
WORTHINGTON? WORTHINGTON? WHY'D YOU COME BACK? YOUR DETECTOR AND YOUR EXPERIMENTS ARE PRIMITIVE, BUT A BI TOO CLOSE TO THE BULL'S-EYE.
THE LAST THING I NEED IS ANY PROOF THAT I'M AROUND.
DIE! DIE! DIE! DIE! DIE! SEIZE HIM.
DIE! DIE! JACK! NO, NO! SHE'S THE ONE YOU WANT.
SHE'S THE RIPPER, NOT ME.
SHE'S THE RIPPER! SHE'S THE RIPPER, NOT ME.
SHE'S THE ONE YOU WANT.
I'M TELLING YOU.
SHE'S THE ONE YOU WANT.
SHE'S NOT EVEN HUMAN.
SHE'S THE RIPPER, NOT ME.
SHE'S THE RIPPER! OH, ELLEN, THANK GOD.
THANK GOD.
ELLEN.
HELLO, JACK.
YOU'VE COME TO YOU'VE COME TO GET ME OUT, RIGHT? NO, NO, I CAN PROVE EVERYTHING.
ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS FIX THE BOX CAMERA.
YES.
I'M GOING AWAY FOR A WHILE, JACK.
WHAT? NO, NO, YOU CAN'T.
YOU HAVE TO CONVINCE THEM.
IT'S STILL OUT THERE, ELLEN.
JACK, I STILL CARE FOR YOU VERY DEEPLY.
BUT I CAN'T STAND THIS ANY LONGER.
NO, NO, DON'T GO.
GOODBYE, JACK.
NO, NO, DON'T GO.
ELLEN, ELLEN, ELLEN, ELLEN! OH, NO, DON'T GO.
NO, NO, NO.
OH, INSPECTOR LANGFORD.
INSPECTOR LANGFORD, YOU HAVE TO BELIEVE ME.
THAT THING IS STILL OUT THERE.
I'M AFRAID THAT'S NO MY CONCERN ANYMORE, MR.
YORK.
I'M RETIRING.
WHAT? I'M GOING TO AMERICA FOR MY HEALTH.
I SHALL ESCORT LADY ELLEN WHILE SHE VISITS THERE.
IT'S THE LAND OF OPPORTUNITY.
NO, NO, NO.
OH, NO.
DON'T WORRY.
SHE'LL HARDLY FEEL A THING.
NO, NO, NO! ( Control Voice ) THE UNIVERSE IS A LABYRINTH SO VAST AND MYSTERIOUS THAT THOSE WHO CHOOSE TO PLUMB ITS DEPTHS MAY WIND UP LOST FOREVER.
JACK, YOU ARE BACK.
I ALWAYS COME BACK, DON'T I? "DE LA TERRE A LA LUNE" PAR MONSIEUR JULES VERNE.
ARE YOU DREAMING OF GOING TO THE MOON? WHAT WOULD BE THE POINT? ONCE I GOT THERE I'D STILL BE ME, WOULDN'T I? NO, I'M DREAMING OF A WOMAN NOW.
MY DEAR, WOULD YOU CARE TO TAKE THE GENTLEMAN UPSTAIRS? OH, NO, THAT WON'T BE NECESSARY.

NOW, LET US ENJOY LUNCH.
JACK, WHERE WERE YOU? YOU MISSED LUNCH.
OH, I'M IT'S A SIGN OF THE UTMOS DISRESPECT.
I'M SORRY.
I HAVE SOMETHING VERY IMPORTAN I HAVE TO TELL YOU.
I I HAVE TO GO AWAY FOR A WHILE AND I WANT YOU TO COME WITH ME.
WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT? ANYWHERE YOU WANT, BUT WE HAVE TO LEAVE IMMEDIATELY, ALL RIGHT? WHAT'S GOT INTO YOU? IS SOMETHING WRONG? JACK, WHAT IS IT? JACK ( clearing throat ) EXCUSE ME, SIR.
YES, WHAT IS IT? AN INSPECTOR LANGFORD TO SEE YOU.
MR.
YORK? YES? MR.
JOHN YORK? YES.
I ARREST YOU FOR THE MURDERS OF MARTHA TABRAM, POLLY NICHOLS, ANNIE CHAPMAN AND ELIZABETH STRIDE.
WHAT? WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT? I DIDN'T MURDER ANYONE.
THE RIPPER DID IT.
INDEED, YOU ARE THE RIPPER.
TAKE HIM AWAY.
NO, DON'T BE A FOOL.
I'M NOT THE RIPPER.
I'M NOT THE RIPPER.
NO, YOU'RE MAKING A MISTAKE.
SIR? ( Jack ) I'M NOT THE RIPPER.
( Ellen ) INSPECTOR LANGFORD, THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SEEING ME.
HOW CAN I HELP YOU? MR.
YORK IS NOT THE RIPPER.
I KNOW THIS BECAUSE BECAUSE? THE EVENING THA ELIZABETH STRIDE WAS MURDERED HE WAS WITH ME ALL NIGHT.
I SEE.
HAS MR.
YORK TOLD YOU THAT THE RIPPER IS ACTUALLY SOME KIND OF CREATURE THAT LEAPS FROM WOMAN TO WOMAN, KILLING THEM, THEN THE WOMEN SPEW GREEN BILE? INSPECTOR, THE REASON MR.
YORK DID NO INFORM YOU OF OUR LIAISON IS BECAUSE HE IS TOO MUCH OF A GENTLEMAN.
I HAVE DISCUSSED THE MATTER WITH MY MOTHER, THE COUNTESS OF AVONRILL.
SHE WILL SPEAK TO THE HOME SECRETARY A LONG-TIME FRIEND WHO WEN TO SCHOOL WITH MY LATE FATHER.
HE WILL SPEAK TO SIR CHARLES, WHO WILL SPEAK TO DEPUTY CHIEF INSPECTOR SWANSON, WHO WILL, I PRESUME, SPEAK TO YOU.
NO DOUBT HE WILL.
I WISH I HAD SOMEONE AS DEVOTED AS YOU, LADY ELLEN.
I'M SURE YOU'LL FIND SOMEONE AS WORTHY AS YOURSELF, INSPECTOR.
PERHAPS I SHALL.
PERHAPS I SHALL.
JACK! ELLEN! OH.
I KNOW WHO THE RIPPER IS.
NO, LISTEN TO ME.
JACK, THERE IS NO CREATURE.
YES, THERE IS, AND I HAVE PROOF.
WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL THEM? BECAUSE I BECAUSE THERE WAS ALSO BLOOD ON THE RAG, FROM THE WOMAN, AS WELL AS THA OF THE CREATURE'S.
THAT WOULD HAVE INCRIMINATED ME MORE.
NOW I KNOW IT'S NOT TRUE.
I DIDN'T KILL THEM.
YOU MUST BELIEVE ME.
I'M TELLING YOU THE TRUTH.
WERE YOU DRINKING ABSINTHE AGAIN LAST NIGHT? NO.
ELLEN, WAIT.
I'M TELLING YOU.
WHAT? IT WAS THE CREATURE, ELLEN.
I CHASED AFTER IT, BUT THEN I LOST IT.
ELLEN.
WHY DO YOU INSIST ON THIS? WHY? YOU ARE TEARING MY HEART OUT.
YOU ARE THROWING YOUR LIFE AWAY ON ABSINTHE, ON YOUR INVENTIONS.
IT'S NOT REAL, JACK.
THE CREATURE IS NOT REAL.
I AM NOT THROWING MY LIFE AWAY.
I'M TRYING TO GET IT BACK.
DON'T YOU SEE? YOU AND THIS THING ARE ALL THAT'S REAL IN MY LIFE.
IF I CAN PROVE THIS CREATURE IS THE RIPPER, IT WILL END MY DISGRACE.
THAT IS WHY I HAVE TO PURSUE IT.
I HAVE TO SEIZE THIS OPPORTUNITY TO REDEEM MYSELF.
SURELY YOU CAN UNDERSTAND THAT.
GOODBYE, JACK.
FROM THE NEWSPAPER FILE, SIR.
THANK YOU.
DO YOU BELIEVE TRAGEDY CAN DRIVE A MAN MAD, ALBERT? ( Albert ) I SUPPOSE SO, SIR.
LADY ELLEN, I NEED TO SPEAK WITH YOU.
( Ellen ) I BEG YOUR PARDON.
IT'S ABOUT THE RIPPER, AND MR.
YORK.
ON YOUR WAY, MISS.
IT'S ALL RIGHT, WICKET.
WON'T YOU COME IN? THANK YOU, MY LADY.
YES.
JACK.
ELLEN! LOOK, I'VE FOUND A WAY TO DETECT THE CREATURE.
I'VE COME TO A DECISION, JACK.
REALLY? WHAT DECISION IS THAT? YOU WERE RIGHT.
I WAS? THERE ARE NO GUARANTEES IN LIFE.
WHO KNOWS WHEN IT WILL END? THE ONE THING THAT MATTERS IS YOU AND ME.
WE MUST SEIZE OUR OPPORTUNITY.
YES.
OH, GOD.
I THOUGHT YOU'D GONE FOR GOOD, THAT YOU'D GONE TO FORGET ME.
I PROMISE YOU, AFTER TONIGHT, YOU'LL NEVER FORGET ABOUT ME.
NO! STAY WHERE YOU ARE! I DON'T WANT TO HARM YOU.
STAY WHERE YOU ARE.
HAVE YOU GONE MAD? GET BACK! I'VE GOT A DETECTOR, SEE? I KNOW IT'S YOU.
JACK, IT'S ME ELLEN.
IT'S NOT THE CREATURE.
EVEN THE SLIGHTEST BIT OF BILE GLOWS RED.
IT'S COMING FROM YOUR HANDBAG.
JACK WHERE DID YOU GET THIS? I GOT IT WHERE DID YOU GET IT?! I GOT IT FROM A STRANGE WOMAN WHO WANTED TO TELL ME SOMETHING ABOUT YOU.
ME? SHE WAS VERY ODD, SO THE BUTLER STAYED WITH ME.
AND THEN, AFTER SHE LEFT, I FOUND THAT HANDKERCHIEF.
AND I REMEMBERED INSPECTOR LANGFORD SAID YOU THOUGHT THE CREATURE SPIT OUT A GREEN BILE.
YOU SPOKE TO THE CREATURE? DID IT SAY ANYTHING? NOT REALLY.
THINK, THINK! AFTER A FEW MOMENTS SHE LEFT, AND SHE FORGO HER HANDKERCHIEF THAT'S ALL.
I THOUGHT I'D LOST YOU.
LISTEN, NOW, THERE'S NO QUESTION OF IT.
YOU HAVE TO GO FAR AWAY, YES.
NO, I'M NO GOING ANYWHERE.
I WANT TO STAY AND HELP YOU.
IT'S NOT SAFE.
JUST DO AS YOU'RE TOLD.
NO, FOR ONCE YOU'VE GOT TO LET ME IN.
YOU ARE MY ANGEL.
WE'RE GOING TO SEE THIS THROUGH TOGETHER.
TO THE END.
TO THE VERY END.
MAY I BE FRANK, INSPECTOR? I WOULDN'T WISH I ANY OTHER WAY, LADY AVONRILL.
I CAN SEE THA YOU'RE A GENTLEMAN OF SENSITIVITY AND INTELLIGENCE, SO I KNOW THAT I MAY RELY ON YOUR DISCRETION.
IF I MAY BE BRIEF, MY DAUGHTER, LADY ELLEN, IS BUT 23, WITH ALL THE WEAKNESSES, IGNORANCES AND PASSIONS THA THAT ENCOMPASSES.
SHE HAS ALWAYS BEEN A HEADSTRONG GIRL.
I BELIEVE YOU SPOKE OF BEING BRIEF, MA'AM.
YES, OF COURSE.
HOW KIND OF YOU TO REMIND ME.
THEN I SHALL GET TO MY POINT.
DO YOU BELIEVE THAT MR.
YORK IS THE RIPPER? HE IS A SUSPECT.
HE IS THE RIPPER.
UNTIL WE DISCOVER HE IS THE RIPPER.
THE MAN WHO CAPTURES THE RIPPER WILL MOST CERTAINLY RECEIVE A KNIGHTHOOD.
I GUARANTEE IT.
I SERVE ONLY THE TRUTH, MA'AM.
"HONESTY IS PRAISED AND STARVES.
" "NOBILITY IS THE ONE AND ONLY VIRTUE.
" I SEE YOU KNOW YOUR JUVENAL.
YOU HAVE HAD A BETTER EDUCATION THAN I THOUGHT.
APPARENTLY SO.
THANK YOU FOR COMING.
I SHALL REMEMBER I ALWAYS, MA'AM.
I HOPE YOU SHALL, AND WHO I AM.
( Jack ) ALL THE MURDERS HAVE TAKEN PLACE WITHIN A MILE OF WHITECHAPEL.
HERE, HERE, HERE AND HERE.
WE'LL START AT ITS HEAR AND WORK OUR SEARCH OUTWARDS IN A CIRCLE.
I WILL PHOTOGRAPH THE AREAS WHERE I'VE SEEN THE CREATURE, OR WHERE THE BODIES WERE FOUND.
I'VE MODIFIED THE EMULSION SOMEWHA SO THEY'RE MORE SENSITIVE TO FLUORESCENT LIGHT.
HOPEFULLY, WITH ANY LUCK, WE CAN PICK UP ITS TRAIL.
AND IF WE DO? THEN THAT'S WHERE THE REAL ADVENTURE BEGINS.
THIS WILL DO, WORTHINGTON.
JUST ONE LAST TIME.
I WON'T BE LONG.
WHERE'S YOUR CANE NOW, JACK? RIGHT HERE! SURPRISE.
WHAT IN GOD'S NAME ARE YOU? I'M A NIGHTMARE, JACK.
YOU'RE NOT EVEN OF THIS WORLD, ARE YOU? BRAVO.
WHY DON'T YOU GO BACK TO YOUR OWN KIND? WHY DO YOU THINK? YOU CHOOSE TO BE HERE.
DID ROBINSON CRUSOE CHOOSE HIS ISLAND? YOU'RE STRANDED.
ENCORE.
ENCORE.
I MUST APPLAUD YOUR PERSISTENCE, JACK.
NO ONE'S EVER COME QUITE THIS CLOSE BEFORE.
IT GIVES ME A CERTAIN FRISSON OF EXCITEMENT.
AND ARE THERE ARE THERE OTHERS? OTHER RACES BESIDES YOUR OWN OUT THERE? BEYOND IMAGINING.
BUT WHY ME? WHY DID YOU HAVE TO PICK ME? YOU'RE THE PERFEC LIGHTNING ROD.
THEY ALREADY HAVE ENOUGH CLUES TO SUSPECT YOU OF THE MURDERS.
I'LL JUST KEEP ENTERTAINING MYSELF UNTIL THEY FINALLY HAVE ENOUGH CLUES TO CONVICT YOU.
GOODBYE, JACK.
NO! COME, JACK.
YOU DON'T WANT TO KILL ME.
WE'RE TOO MUCH ALIKE.
WE'RE BOTH OUTCASTS BY TEMPERAMENT AND BY CHOICE.
IT WOULD BE LIKE KILLING YOURSELF.
YOU FORGET ONE THING I HATE MYSELF.
BY THE WAY, DOES YOUR FIANCEE ALWAYS KEEP THAT BUTLER AROUND? BETTER LUCK NEXT TIME.
HAVE FUN, JACK THE RIPPER.
ELLEN, WAKE UP! WHAT IS IT? YOU HAVE TO LEAVE AT ONCE.
GO TO AVONRILL, AND DON'T COME BACK UNTIL I CALL FOR YOU.
IT WAS HERE, I SPOKE TO IT.
IT'S INSIDE A WOMAN IN A CREAM COLOURED DRESS.
WORTHINGTON, TAKE LADY ELLEN HOME.
WE MUST GO SEE INSPECTOR LANGFORD.
HE WOULDN'T EVEN KNOW WHAT HE HAD.
ARROGANCE IS WHAT KILLED THAT LITTLE GIRL.
DON'T ARGUE WITH ME! DON'T YOU SEE? I DON'T WANT YOU AROUND.
I DON'T WANT YOU.
YOU DON' MEAN THAT.
YES, I DO.
YOU WITH YOUR SILLY CLOTHES FROM PARIS, AND YOUR IDEAS ABOUT HELPING ME.
IT'S LIKE HAVING A CHILD IN TOW.
YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW REAL PEOPLE LIVE.
EVEN YOUR PASSIONS AREN'T REAL.
IT'S NOT ONE TENTH OF WHAT A REAL WOMAN HAS.
YOU CAN'T EVEN KISS PROPERLY.
WORTHINGTON, TAKE ME HOME.
TAKE HER.
MAY GOD FORGIVE ME.
SHE WAS FOUND ABOU AN HOUR AGO, SIR.
JOHN CRECY VILLMORIN YORK.
JACK THE RIPPER.
I'D LIKE YOUR FULL REPOR AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
YES, SIR.
UH, INSPECTOR LANGFORD, I NEED TO SPEAK TO YOU PRIVATELY.
SIR.
PLEASE, PROCEED.
I WAS NO WITH MR.
YORK ON THE EVENING ELIZABETH STRIDE WAS MURDERED.
I KNOW.
WE STILL DIDN'T HAVE ENOUGH EVIDENCE.
NOW WE DO.
MR.
YORK'S WATCH WAS FOUND IN THE FIS OF ANOTHER VICTIM.
TONIGHT? JUDGING FROM THE BODY, YES.
LADY ELLEN? TONIGHT WE WERE OUT.
WE WERE LOOKING FOR THE CREATURE AND WE BECAME SEPARATED.
HE SAID HE HAD SEEN IT, THAT IT HAD APPROACHED HIM.
LADY ELLEN, MR.
YORK IS A SICK MAN, AND A DANGEROUS ONE.
YES, HE'S SICK, BUT NOT DANGEROUS.
HE WOULDN'T MURDER ANYONE.
HE NEEDS HELP.
THE RIPPER HAS MURDERED FIVE WOMEN.
HE HAS CUT THEM OPEN AND LEFT THEM BLEEDING.
HE'S A MONSTER.
BUT I SHARE YOUR VIEW.
NO SANE MAN COULD PERFORM SUCH A DEED.
BUT AN INSANE MAN MUS BE STOPPED.
YOU WON'T TRY TO KILL HIM? NO.
YOU MUST TRUST ME, LADY ELLEN.
WORTHINGTON? WORTHINGTON? WHY'D YOU COME BACK? YOUR DETECTOR AND YOUR EXPERIMENTS ARE PRIMITIVE, BUT A BI TOO CLOSE TO THE BULL'S-EYE.
THE LAST THING I NEED IS ANY PROOF THAT I'M AROUND.
DIE! DIE! DIE! DIE! DIE! SEIZE HIM.
DIE! DIE! JACK! NO, NO! SHE'S THE ONE YOU WANT.
SHE'S THE RIPPER, NOT ME.
SHE'S THE RIPPER! SHE'S THE RIPPER, NOT ME.
SHE'S THE ONE YOU WANT.
I'M TELLING YOU.
SHE'S THE ONE YOU WANT.
SHE'S NOT EVEN HUMAN.
SHE'S THE RIPPER, NOT ME.
SHE'S THE RIPPER! OH, ELLEN, THANK GOD.
THANK GOD.
ELLEN.
HELLO, JACK.
YOU'VE COME TO YOU'VE COME TO GET ME OUT, RIGHT? NO, NO, I CAN PROVE EVERYTHING.
ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS FIX THE BOX CAMERA.
YES.
I'M GOING AWAY FOR A WHILE, JACK.
WHAT? NO, NO, YOU CAN'T.
YOU HAVE TO CONVINCE THEM.
IT'S STILL OUT THERE, ELLEN.
JACK, I STILL CARE FOR YOU VERY DEEPLY.
BUT I CAN'T STAND THIS ANY LONGER.
NO, NO, DON'T GO.
GOODBYE, JACK.
NO, NO, DON'T GO.
ELLEN, ELLEN, ELLEN, ELLEN! OH, NO, DON'T GO.
NO, NO, NO.
OH, INSPECTOR LANGFORD.
INSPECTOR LANGFORD, YOU HAVE TO BELIEVE ME.
THAT THING IS STILL OUT THERE.
I'M AFRAID THAT'S NO MY CONCERN ANYMORE, MR.
YORK.
I'M RETIRING.
WHAT? I'M GOING TO AMERICA FOR MY HEALTH.
I SHALL ESCORT LADY ELLEN WHILE SHE VISITS THERE.
IT'S THE LAND OF OPPORTUNITY.
NO, NO, NO.
OH, NO.
DON'T WORRY.
SHE'LL HARDLY FEEL A THING.
NO, NO, NO! ( Control Voice ) THE UNIVERSE IS A LABYRINTH SO VAST AND MYSTERIOUS THAT THOSE WHO CHOOSE TO PLUMB ITS DEPTHS MAY WIND UP LOST FOREVER.
