[introduction]
Alfred Hitchcock: [Hitchcock is standing next to the mounted head of a stag] Good evening, television watchers. Tonight's masque is entitled, "The West Warlock Time Capsule": the tale of a timid taxidermist. This gives me the excuse to exhibit this prize of mine
[nods his head to the stag briefly]
Alfred Hitchcock: and to discuss taxidermy. I feel I know quite a bit about stuffed animals. After all, it takes one to know one.
[turns to the stag briefly]
Alfred Hitchcock: This, I shot myself. You see, deer poaching is one of my hobbies. It took only two shots. The first one hit a bearded old man wearing a ridiculous red suit and riding in a sleigh. I'm having him stuffed, too. It probably sounds silly to you, but I'm sentimental that way. But enough of this. Here in a moment is "The West Warlock Time Capsule."
