"I'll never understand how you are able to solve the most complex mathematical equations, but you can't tell left from right."

"This tear that I will create in the fabric of the universe, is powered by MRD." "Extremely volatile." "Radioactive substance, so, of course, all precautions will be taken." "Possible dangers range from manageable radiation leak, to, well, universe collapsing onto itself." "It's now 47 minutes until we initiate the first part of the sequence:" "Opening one end of the wormhole." "OK, he should be here." "I'm gonna give him the Big Bang speech." "No, Jim, give him the fireworks, that's what he is here for." "Now, once opened, we should detect the unique sequence of particles, sent through from the other side." "A sequence so unique that we will know that we sent them to ourselves." "Then, I will have proof of the findings to show our venture capitalist, Klaus Meisner." "And he will then provide the necessary MRD for us to open the other end." "Let's see what I'm paying for." "And then we will send this unique sequence of particles back through to ourselves." "Thereby proving that the project is a success." "The Big Bang, we have proven theories..." "This isn't my ideal situation, to have an investor be this kind of major factor in an experiment." "But I only have enough MRD to open one end." "We are about to embark on a journey." "It's going..." "Enough of the physics lesson." "Get on with the light show."

"You should go home and get some sleep." "I sold my home to pay you and Matty." "Maybe it was sabotage." "Right." "No, I'm serious." "Maybe it was visitors from the future, who came back to destroy our project, because it eventually leads to some distant apocalypse." "It's a distinct possibility." "knocking- Guys!" "Look what I found." "It's an exotic hybrid of the dahlia genus." "There." "Right there." "That black spec." "Could be a missing pixel." "No, it's moving." "There it goes." "There!" "I think that was Matty." "No, I saw someone." "I saw it before I blacked out." "It looked like a person, not Matty." "They went out the front." "Where did you just come from?" "I should be asking you how did you do that." "What?" "That." "How did you get here?" "In a car." "How did you get here?" "You didn't just walk through a wormhole?" "You're making me feel like I did." "I just met you." "Then, why are you acting like you know me?" "I don't." "You left before you could see." "It was a success." "Didn't feel that way to me, Mr. Beale." "If you'd just come back into the lab..." "You've wasted my money, now you're wasting my time." "I can prove to you that it worked." "Look, I'm already late for a previous engagement." "We made history tonight." "I'm sure whoever it is will understand." "Whoever it is is my wife." "She is already at the restaurant, and I assure you, she will not understand." "Why don't you and your little friend join us, and we can discuss this over dinner?" "We just met." "Another time, then." "No, no, no, no." "We would love to join you and your wife for dinner, wouldn't we...?" "Abby." "Abby." "What's going on, Jim?" "Start running preliminary tests on the flower, I'm gonna go to dinner with the Meisners and Abby." "OK." "Who's Abby?" "What we've done, is folded it on top of itself, by forming a tunnel, a shortcut, between one location in space-time, to another, light years away." "But, in order to traverse a wormhole, you have to have two openings." "What we did tonight, was open one end of it." "Where's the other end?" "We have to do it again to find out." "I'm...not sure I follow." "The way it works is, you need a transmitter and a receiver." "Now, like a telephone, I'm mixing metaphors here, but, you can't complete a call without another phone involved." "We already have the receiver." "We got the call." "How much?" "It's not capital I'm asking for." "No, for the whole project, the research, the formulas, the machine, everything, how much?" "It's not for sale." "Then what do you want, Mr. Beale?" "Another unit of MRD." "And for that, I get what, ten percent?" "We're talking about dangerous radio-isotopes." "Enriched uranium, yellow-cake, something countries go to war over." "Not anymore." "Once we have the ability to answer the fundamental questions of the universe..." "But, how will we make money on our investment?" "With all due respect, we're not talking about hover-cars and X-ray goggles, we are talking about an epoch of human evolution." "Pardon my pedestrian viewpoint, Mr. Beale, but how do you plan to market that?" "Pardon my pedestrian viewpoint for a moment, Mrs. Meisner." "Do you know who pioneered electricity?" "Of course." "Thomas Edison." "I thought so, too." "Until I stumbled upon a book about Nikola Tesla." "You see, Tesla was working towards a way to get everyone on the planet safe, free, limitless electricity." "And he would have." "Except Edison did everything in his power to discredit him and crush his reputation." "Edison's company developed a patent for an inefficient current you had to pay for." "Tesla wanted to better the world." "And Edison forced us all to have a monthly power bill because he was envious of a profound idea." "Now, I don't have a horse in this race, but I would put my money on Jim because he's Tesla, and Edison was a dick." "I'll supply you with the MRD." "But I want to own half of the machine." "Can't do that." "Well, you see, my company is in an enviable position of being the sole manufacturer of MRD." "So, best of luck." "49 percent." "And money for the repairs." "You have a week." "I won't sleep 'till it's complete." "Thank you!" "Thank you." "We gotta share our cab." "Was I playing the beard (companion) tonight?" "Why do you ask?" "Well, either you came to the lab with Klaus or you got there through the wormhole." "I did arrive with Klaus." "But I'm leaving with you." "That kiss could have cost me millions of dollars." "Would it have been worth it?" "I'd have to do more research, eliminate the variables..." "This is me." "You're sure he won't mind?" "He went home." "With his wife." "Drinks?" "Black coffee for me." "KMC 0-14" "You like my dahlia?" "Yeah, where did you get it?" "phone ringing" "phone ringing phone ringing" "I'm sorry, I have to take this." "Chuck, what have you got?" "What are you doing?" "Uhm, talking to you." "What time do you have exactly, to the second?" "9:45, 22, 23, come on, get on with it." "When did you and I first meet?" "What is this?" "Just tell me." "It's important." "Uh, 10 years ago, at that karaoke bar with the weird name." "What's going on?" "So, we've known each other a long time?" "We trust each other?" "Yeah." "Stay away from that girl." "She's no good for you." "What?" "Just don't tell her, or anyone else about the experiment." "We're on to something much bigger than we imagined." "What are you doing here, Jim?" "I went to the lab." "You guys were gone." "You should go back." "We'll meet you there." "No, no, no." "You called, you said we were on to something, and what was this stuff about hav..." "My head is killing me." "See?" "I told you you need to stop popping those pills and get some sleep." "What did you mean earlier when you were telling me about Abby?" "Let me get you some pills." "Chuck, Chuck, I figured it out, it makes sense, I finally see it now, fucking intense..." "Matty, stop, you're giving Jim a headache!" "This isn't a headache, this is a lightning storm between my temples." "Just tell me what did you mean earlier, what were you talking about...?" "How long was I out?" "Huh?" "Oh, Jim." "You're awake." "Uhm, you were unconscious for approximately 8.5 hours." "Why didn't you wake me?" "Your biological imperative requires a minimum amount of dormancy per day in order to properly function." "But, you should lie back down in case of another..." "I just needed some sleep, I got plenty." "Where did you get that jacket?" "Haven't you considered the correlation between your episodes and the arrival of KMC 0-14?" "KMC 0..." "The serial number of the dahlia." "Wait, you have to wait for Chuck to get back!" "You and Chuck meet me at the lab." "We have another wormhole to open." "We have to wait for Chuck." "undistinguishable male speech" "Is this the residence of Abby Ross?" "She's not here." "This is Jim Beale." "I'm a friend of her's." "Hey, sleepyhead, looking for me?" "Is there a man in your place?" "I guess you buzzed my neighbor by accident." "I need to see your flower." "Wow, classy." "I'm a lady." "You can at least buy me a breakfast first." "Do they even serve breakfast here?" "Two morning specials, Mike." "That dahlia, where did you get it?" "It was a gift." "Exotic plants like that are hard to come by." "It's an expensive present." "It was from someone who gave me everything I wanted, except a minute of his time." "And with time is our only real currency." "You know, meeting you was the most important part of my experiment." "Is that a fact?" "Huh, no, it's not a fact, I only meant to say that your dahlia, that may be important to my research." "Mhm." "A Megan (cocktail), Mike." "Or maybe not, I don't know." "Right now, it's just a theory." "So what's all this fuss about my dahlia?" "How do I know I can really trust you?" "The truth will set you free." "The ID number matches the one that came through the wormhole." "But that's probably just a coincidence." "You people don't believe in coincidences." "Sure we do." "Eh, Einstein himself said that they're God's way of remaining anonymous." "So, your machine working was total happenstance?" "No, no, that was me." "I did it." "I'm the one that came up with the idea that made it work." "And what was that?" "The rotation of the Earth." "The biggest obstacle in opening a wormhole, is creating enough energy." "Not unlike the tremendous amount of energy that an entire planet makes as it spins on it's axis." "The power is there." "I didn't have to generate it." "I just thought of a way to utilize it." "Kind of like us." "I mean, the energy's there." "We just gotta think of a way to use it." "Jim?" "Are you OK?" "Chuck." "You found me." "Technology's come a long way, and not being found is hard." "I think we sent this to ourselves." "Chuck." "You were right about the girl." "Five" "Four" "Three" "Two" "Jim." "Jim, Jim!" "The pressure dropped below 0-2-9." "We have to abort." "Alright, abort." "It's that damn bracket again." "We're gonna have to reconfigure the output." "It might take a while to recalibrate." "Why don't you take a break?" "I like your lighter." "Take it, it's yours." "It needs fuel." "Hand me those matches." "So, my flower is really the same one that came through your wormhole?" "I'd have to run some tests to know for sure." "What's my finder's fee?" "What?" "Okay, fine." "I'll settle for one butterfly kiss." "It's a match, Jim." "Identical DNA match." "KMC 0-14, you're the first organism to time-travel." "Yes, but in a parallel universe scenario, we have to consider that the Klaus Meisner Corporation may not have..." "Wait, wait, wait." "What did you just say?" "Parallel universe?" "No, no, no." "Klaus Meisner Corporation." "KMC 0-14." "Klaus Meisner Corporation 0-14, licensed exotic plants and flowers for domestic use." "We have to take into account the very distinct possibility that these two plants, when they traversed..." "Jim Beale." "I have Klaus Meisner for you." "Yeah, put him through." "Mr. Beale, you have the dahlia in your possession." "Yes." "Did she tell you that?" "I want you in my office to go over the contracts." "What's going on here?" "You're about to get fucked." "Logic." "Rationale." "Dignity." "All seem to disappear because of the scent of that perfume." "Good reason, common sense, they just go by the wayside because of the way her hair breaks across her forehead and frames her eyes." "A total, reckless abandon you have absolutely no control over, Mr. Beale." "Have a seat." "I prefer to stand while I'm getting it from behind." "Watch your tone." "If you want to come at me, you gotta come hard and fast and be willing to go all the way." "Cause I never lose." "Klaus, listen." "You call me Mr. Meisner." "My best friends and associates call me Klaus, but you, sir, are neither." "You are an employee." "I don't work for you." "The height cost of one unit of MRD is 5 million, give or take a pebble." "And what for you is a small fortune, is for me negligible." "I've lost larger sums in the cushions of my sofa." "But, you need MRD for your machine to work." "Therefore, you come to me, head in hand, begging." "49 percent of my project?" "Hardly makes you my boss." "This is true, but you need tangible proof that your prototype works." "Evidence that you've actually created a traversable wormhole." "And to do that, you need to be able to send the original specimen which is registered as KMC 0-1-4 back through to the other side." "Now." "Just so happens that I own all copyrights, commercial and private, for all KMC products." "Which means, this is your lucky day." "I'm willing to sell to you those rights for, let's say, 50 percent of your operation." "Now, if you put that together with the 49 percent I already own.." "Let's crunch the numbers..." "That leaves you with one percent, for your reference." "Now, if you want to finish this experiment that leads to the invention of time-travel, then you, Mr. Beale, work for me." "You are an employee." "So you slipped up." "Had a moment of weakness." "I have to admit, she's an incredible piece of ass." "But you and I both know, you're not gonna walk away from the find of the century because of whose name's gonna end up in the textbooks." "Like our little friend said, you're Tesla, and I'm quite content being just another Edison of the world." "tape recorder whirring" "Jim Beale, project log." "Final entry before zero-hour of the experiment." "A piercing sound has been cutting through every synapse in my brain ever since I opened the first end of the wormhole." "It's finally ceased." "Hopefully for good." "Klaus Meisner has me on the ropes." "He knew that I needed a correlative between side A and side B to prove that the machine works." "Otherwise, it's just a bunch of blinking lights." "I mean, if I send the dahlia back to myself then he owns my machine." "Wait, what are you doing?" "I'm taking it back to its rightful owner." "The one variable in this is Abby." "And I need her to be a constant." "So, if the faith of my machine is predetermined, it has to be because of her, that the dahlia goes through." "She has to be the one that put it through the wormhole." "If she brings it to the lab, if she comes there with Klaus, that is very fucking unfortunate, but at least I will know." "muffled Abby and a male's conversation" "Jim." "I really wasn't expecting you." "You don't have to invite me in." "Good, it's a bit of a mess in there at the moment." "The gun is to my head." "But, I'm sure as shit not gonna pull the trigger myself." "This is yours." "You get to decide what happens." "In two days, I'm gonna start the machine." "And I'll open the wormhole." "But now it's up to you what goes through it." "You have to make the choice." "Mr. Meisner." "Would you be so kind as to wait here while I escort Ms. Ross and her dahlia to the lab floor?" "So, this is the way it's gonna be?" "It's the way it has to be." "The way it is." "It only seems that way now, but eventually, you will see it in a different light." "We had our time together." "Goodbye, Jim." "Put these on." "I don't want you to miss the thing." "Five" "Four" "Three" "Two" "One" "MRD in place." "Close hatch, turn handle left, 45 degrees." "Lock it at high noon." "Engage sequence." "Commence graviton resonance." "You may own the dahlia, but you don't own me." "Do you have a light?" "Matches?" "Two sticks I can rub together?" "Yeah." "You recognize that?" "Should I?" "It's yours." "It is now." "Thanks." "What you and Klaus are doing is wrong and it has to stop." "Excuse me?" "I know what you're up to and I'm not gonna let it happen again." "That's none of your business." "It'll be my business if you and I get involved." "Does this technique usually work for you?" "Or have you been cooped up in the lab too long you forgotten how to flirt?" "Listen." "I'm on to you." "I should have known that someone as intelligent and as beautiful as you are..." "I should have known there had to be some kind of catch." "There is a catch." "It's a big one." "Where did you just come from?" "I should be asking you how did you do that." "What?" "That." "How did you get here?" "You didn't just walk through a wormhole?" "You're making me feel like I did." "I just met you." "Then why are you acting like you know me?" "I don't." "Tell me, Matty, again, where it was, what was it?" "Exactly right here, you and I both almost stepped on it." "I didn't see it when I came in." "I would have seen it, Matty." "Well, I was on the stairs, and I came here and I almost tripped on it." "Jim." "I though you were at dinner with Klaus." "I am." "Let's try this." "That's my phone." "Now call it with yours." "phone ringing" "It went to voicemail." "Right." "Try it again." "It's ringing." "phone ringing" "Chuck, what have you got?" "What are you doing?" "Uhm, talking to you." "What time do you have exactly, to the second?" "What?" "9:45, 22, 23, come on, get on with it." "Could be an impostor." "Ask him something only you and I know." "Uh, when did you and I first meet?" "What is this?" "Just tell me, it's important." "Uh, 10 years ago, at that karaoke bar with the weird name." "What's going on?" "10 years ago, at the karaoke bar with the weird name." "I didn't know that." "Now, tell me not to trust Abby Ross." "She's just using me." "What?" "No." "You're my best friend, I will understand." "So, we've been friends a long time?" "We trust each other?" "Yeah." "Stay away from that girl." "She's no good for you." "What?" "Just don't tell her, or anyone else about the experiment." "We're on to something much bigger than we imagined." "So, that happened." "What is it?" "Matty?" "You ever been to a native American orgy?" "Nope." "It's fucking intense." "I don't get it." "If I'm doing my math correctly, then there is a good chance that I'm on my way here right now." "How do you know?" "Cause it's what I did before." "I'm telling you, this is where I'm coming next." "We don't know that for sure." "We need to keep you isolated from the world as much as possible to avoid any collisions of causality." "But my being here hasn't affected any real change yet." "That we know about." "We have to make sure that the machine doesn't fall into the wrong hands." "Uncover the conspiracy before it's too late." "What are you now?" "A secret agent?" "You're a scientist, and as a man of science, you need to step back, breathe and take a moment to properly analyze the data." "Fine." "Let me stay here and observe this strange new habitat I've encountered." "Oh." "What is this?" "Huh." "It's a remote control." "In our time we use it to operate the television." "Oh, wow." "In the future we control the TV with our minds." "Oh." "Right." "You're only five days ahead of us." "This isn't a game." "You're now part of the experiment, Jim, the same as the dahlia." "That means we have to study you the same way." "Follow the process." "I need you to go step by step and tell us exactly how you did it." "What did it feel like?" "The wormhole opened." "I jumped in." "sigh- I don't know why you're being so obtuse!" "Because we are wasting time sitting around here, yapping about it." "We must take action." "I got duped." "We have to strike back!" "We can't do anything until we fully understand what happened." "We are messing with the primal forces of nature here." "The primal forces of nature are telling me I have to take a piss." "What are you doing here, Jim?" "I went to the lab." "You guys were gone." "You should go back." "We'll meet you there." "No, no, no." "You called, you said we were on to something, and what was this stuff about hav..." "My head is killing me." "See?" "I told you you need to stop popping those pills and get some sleep." "What did you mean earlier when you were telling me about Abby?" "Let me get you some pills." "Stay in here." "Don't come out, no matter what you hear." "Give me an aspirin." "I finally see it now, fucking intense..." "Matty, stop, you're giving Jim a headache!" "This isn't a headache, this is a lightning storm between my temples." "What were you saying earlier, on the phone, some things about Abby..." "No, no, no, no!" "This is far too much to calculate!" "Matty, you have to keep it together." "Look you can't." "No." "No." "Sing the pi song." "3.14159..." "Good, sing it." "Yeah." "Jim!" "Shit!" "Time-travel made the guy a real asshole." "The drink offer is rescinded." "Okay." "But what about coffee?" "Does that count?" "I never had a chance to finish my coffee." "What do you want, Jim?" "Look, I know I left without saying goodbye." "But, if you let me back up, I just want a chance to apologize for leaving the way that I did." "So, let's hear it." "It better be good if you want to see what's underneath." "I know what's underneath." "Trouble." "Do I really have to explain how this works?" "You grovel at my feet and then..." "I came here with a plan." "There's so much that I want to say." "And I don't know where to start." "mixed Abby's speech" "There are certain tribes in the Amazon where women use shamanistic rituals to control their men by driving them to insanity." "Are you a shaman?" "No." "I'm just a girl." "I'm sorry." "I'll take it." "Is this the residence of Abby Ross?" "She's not here." "This is Jim Beale." "I'm a friend of her's." "Hey, sleepyhead, looking for me?" "Is there a man in your place?" "I guess you buzzed my neighbor by accident." "I need to see your flower." "Wow, classy." "I'm a lady." "You could at least buy me a breakfast first." "The biggest obstacle in opening a wormhole, is creating enough energy." "Not unlike the tremendous amount of energy that an entire planet makes as it spins on it's axis." "The power is there." "I just thought of a way to utilize it." "Double or nothing if I hit it again." "I'll take those odds." "indistinguishable speech" "Do that again." "Not being found is hard." "Especially when there's two of you." "That's not me." "Cause I'm sitting right here." "He might as well be some other guy." "But it's not." "That is you." "A week younger." "But from now on, she's only gonna be with me." "How can you know that?" "Because...that's what I'm about to make sure of." "Woah, Jim?" "Jim!" "This isn't some relationship problem, it's a little bigger than you and that girl!" "Not to me." "Not anymore." "You can't go around changing the past because you got your feelings hurt." "This is not the past for you." "I'm not changing anyone's past, but my own." "No matter what happens to that guy, I'm still gonna feel this way, right?" "I have no idea, you're the first person to ever do this." "Well, then, the only way that I know how to fix my past is by taking control of my future." "What about the fact that she's using you to get to the machine?" "She's not." "She's using him, and that puts me in a fantastic position to turn it all around." "Jim?" "Are you OK?" "Chuck." "You found me." "Technology's come a long way, and not being found is hard." "You taste like ash." "intercom ringing" "Who's that?" "Just ignore it, they'll go away." "Will they?" "They will." "It's Klaus." "Then definitely ignore it." "Doesn't he know I'm here?" "I don't care if he knows or not." "Well, tell him." "Tell him everything is going according to plan." "What are you talking about?" "Answer it!" "I wanna hear what you two have to say to each other." "Fine!" "I can't invite you in, Klaus." "Jim Beale is here and he's about to fuck the shit out of me again." "Well, what are you waiting for?" "I just cut off my only source of income for you, so, better make it worth it." "So you do work for him!" "He was funding my research." "You were working on a time-travel project for him." "It's not for him." "So why is he paying you for it?" "You know, for a brilliant man, you really are quite dense." "Please." "Enlighten me." "Don't make me say it." "Come on, the truth will set you free, remember?" "Cause I was fucking him, alright?" "Yeah, he payed my bills and my rent and whatever else I needed." "So then, why me?" "It ended for me the night you and I first met, but it wasn't official until right now." "So, you jump at the first guy who comes along?" "I mean, you must have had ulterior motives to fuck me like you did." "You are being a childish asshole." "But, you're right." "I was using you." "I was using you for my research." "A ploy to steal my ideas for your nefarious scheme." "So what is it?" "Let's get all the cards on the table." "It's..." "It's not done yet." "Waiting for my next move, huh?" "Oh, you're making it." "You wanna see what I'm working on?" "I'll be down at the pub, drinking this day off." "Working in secret for two years in a hidden lab on the outskirts of the city, John Bane's prototype had become the stuff of legend." "They say he invented a time machine." "But what no one knew was that only moments before I met him, it had actually worked." "Do you have a light?" "I knew everything there was to know about John Bane, the physicist." "But I never imagined I would get to know John Bane, the man." "A science fiction novel." "More of a novella, at this point." "Your hero, John Bane, that's supposed to be me." "There was an article about you that inspired the idea, yeah, but once I met you..." "Do you know who I am?" "John." "A physicist named John Bane." "The whole story got a lot more involved, that's why it's not done yet." "I wanted to see how it played out." "Yeah, but it's not actually me." "It's just a version of me." "It doesn't have my memories or feelings." "That's unfortunate." "If we only had time." "Time to get closer." "I'm just a girl." "Girl of my dreams." "We could have a chance of something real." "I led myself to believe in serendipity." "But the cosmos had a cruel way of making me believe otherwise." "As the day of the final experiment grew near, I wondered if we had a future together." "Or would fate keep us apart?" "What happens from here on out is up to me." "That's why I'm here with you right now." "But you can't change fate." "It's like trying to make the sun set with your mind." "Who's to say I can't?" "See that?" "That right there, I did that." "Tell me I didn't." "Scientists and their God complex." "I'm supposed to be the smoker here." "Jim, are you OK?" "Jim, are you OK?" "phone ringing phone ringing" "phone ringing phone ringing" "Jim?" "It's not Jim, it's Abby." "There's something wrong with Jim, he's coughing up blood and he's..." "he's been having seizures and I don't know what to do!" "Can you please..." "Can you please come?" "!" "He won't let me take him to the hospital!" "Abby." "Abby." "Yeah?" "Don't do anything until I get there." "Don't call anyone...don't do anything." "I'm coming." "Okay." "Wait, what are you doing?" "Uh, tell Jim Prime I'm taking this to a specialist for more intensive examination." "Where's the other one?" "Chuck took it to an examinist for further specialization." "Must be the cold." "Wait, what are you doing?" "I'm taking it back to its rightful owner." "Wormhole." "Such a weird word when you think about it." "Right now, he's experiencing what can only be described as a kind of "temporal feedback"." "It seems that two beings of the same consciousness cannot exist in the same universe." "This must be nature's way of correcting the anomaly." "That's your diagnosis? "Temporal feedback"?" "That makes the most sense given what we know." "Okay, Dr. Chuck." "If you're such an expert on space cancer, then what should we expect from here?" "If the rate of deterioration stays in sync with 0-14, terminus..." "That's what we call.." "I get it, what?" "He has about 48 hours." "Give or take." "Then his vital organs will disintegrate 'till his biological functions shut down." "He's been chosen for extinction." "You have a hell of a bedside manner." "I'm a physicist, not an MD." "How am I supposed to believe any of this?" "knocking" "Now's your chance." "This is your proof right here." "But, please, handle with care." "The faith of the universe is in your hands." "Jim." "I wasn't expecting you." "You might wanna hide in the other room in case he comes in." "He won't." "He thinks Klaus is in here." "No need to tell me who's in there." "I have my theory." "And who is that?" "I'm not giving any more theories to you." "That's not why I came here." "That's not what I want from this." "And what do you want from this?" "To ignore the facts, give you the benefit of the doubt." "All of the observable evidence leads to the inevitable conclusion that you are playing me." "But I refuse to accept it." "I barely know you, but something happened in those brief hours we spent together." "And it's how you looked at me, like how you're looking at me now." "Is the pain worse when he's close by?" "Yeah." "Proximity to him must be a factor." "The best course of action is to get you out of town, as far as possible, to alleviate the effects of the feedback." "You mean prolong the inevitable?" "So, here it is, my act of faith." "The gun is to my head." "But, I'm sure as shit not gonna pull the trigger myself." "This is yours." "You get to decide what happens." "In two days, I'm gonna start the machine." "And I'm gonna open the wormhole." "But it's now up to you what goes through it." "Chuck." "I want you to take your friend and get the fuck out of here." "Okay." "Abby!" "You lied to me." "Not about me and you." "Me and you is all totally based on bullshit." "If you could just see my logic..." "Don't." "There is an explanation for all of it." "Not for how I feel." "I'm not even sure who I'm talking to right now," "But whatever Jim you are, I want you to get the hell out of my house before I contract this psychotic disease." "I don't think that temporal feedback is contagious." "Matty?" "Where's Jim Prime?" "I need you to slip away and meet me at our place." "Tell him that you have left your reading glasses at home." "He knows you're useless without them." "Then break them." "Tell him you have to get your other pair." "Just do it!" "And..." "Bring D-29B." "Dextro-29 Boost" "Still in beta." "It's, uh," "Hybrid synthesis of adrenal epinephrine secretions." "Oh yeah!" "It won't keep you alive, but when you take it, you won't know you're dying." "I'm dying." "I'm dying, yes." "Yeah." "OK." "Alright." "What to do?" "What to do?" "What to do?" "I'm dying." "Dying." "Death." "Dead. 48 hours. 48 hours." "We have to prevent that, don't we?" "We do." "We should." "I say we don't do anything." "Don't open the other end of the wormhole, then it's like it never happened." "Have you considered...?" "I'm here, it happened, yes, yes, it did." "Yes, it did." "But, have you consi..." "Yes, we did." "No, we roll up our sleeves." "We find a workable solution." "...to explain the actions of paradox." "We have to get one of you out of here." "Let's come clean with Jim Prime." "He can go and you can live." "He's not gonna do it if he knows he will die." "Would you?" "No, you wouldn't." "I wouldn't." "I mean, I did, I'm here, so..." "That is the notion." "Maybe it should be me that goes." "And make things worse?" "The theory..." "Are you joking?" "Is he joking?" "Make things worse?" "I have less than two days to live, I lost the rights to my life's work, my girlfriend, she hates me, so how can it possibly get any worse?" "Parallel dimensions." "Parallel dimensions." "There exists not one singular universe, but an infinite number of possibilities coinciding simultaneously and eternally." "Every conceivable version of every being persisting forward in the concurrent reality." "Your time-space excursion was not to the past of your present universe, on the contrary, it was simply a migration from your plane of existence to the one adjacent." "You're operating independently of yourself on an alternate timeline." "No." "But..." "That's still hypothetical at this point." "And, of course, I already thought of that, but being here, seeing it for myself, everything played out exactly the same." "Yes, but, your journal accounted for..." "What journal?" "Where did you get this?" "It was in your coat pocket when you traversed." "And you had this the whole time?" "I was processing it as a dataset." "It's not my handwriting." "You were both so busy." "This is her book." "Whose book?" "Abby's." "It was alarmingly accurate." "Matty," "This is a made-up story." "A work of fiction." "And an incomplete one at that." "Okay, enough theorizing." "Alright?" "The machine should be up and running." "How much more of this go-juice do you have?" "Enough." "Alright, I'm pulling the trigger on our best option." "Klaus only paid for one unit of MRD." "We can't do this again." "If I go back through the wormhole, knowing what I know now, to that first day, we won't have to do this ever again." "I can take over from here." "Where have you been?" "Uh, our mass-spectrometer was on the fritz and I wanted to take 0-14 over to the institute for a final evaluation." "How's it doing?" "Clean bill of health." "But, they're gonna keep it tonight so that they can run it through the liquid scintillation counter." "Okay." "As long as they don't know what it's for." "They think it's a sample." "But we're almost online." "Wanna do a practice run?" "Absolutely." "knocking" "Oh, and Chuck." "Dahlia 2.0 is also gone for now, so we have to send something else through the wormhole." "I think I can find a replacement." "Balance metric pressure at 0-5-7." "Metric pressure sustaining, 0-5-7, releasing valves." "Docking hatch opened and clear." "Radioactivity meters online, ready for exposure." "Prepare to load MRD." "MRD removed from containment." "Preparing to load." "Keep full exposure duration no more than 10 seconds." "Nine" "Eight" "Seven" "Insertion of MRD commencing." "Five" "Four" "Three" "Two" "One" "MRD in place." "Close hatch." "Jim." "Jim, Jim!" "The pressure dropped below 0-2-9." "We have to abort." "Alright, abort." "It's that damn bracket again." "We're gonna have to reconfigure the output." "I know how to fix it." "Might take a while to recalibrate." "Why don't you take a break?" "I don't take breaks." "What about that stack of readouts in your office?" "Have you got through those yet?" "I see what you're doing." "You do?" "You want me to sleep." "You're on to me." "Fine." "I'll leave you be." "But work on that for a bit." "And I'm not napping." "Okay, Jim." "Get ready." "Matty, close the docking hatch." "Handle left, 45 degrees." "Slide forward and lock at high noon." "Engage sequence." "Chuck." "I don't, uh..." "Matty, it's good." "The left...and right..." "Matty, he could come back any second." "To the left and right...and that's that." "The left and right." "Matty, you've done it a thousand times, do it now!" "You're still chasing after her, huh?" "I don't realize that's what I'm doing." "Until I do it." "Power to cross the universe in an instant." "Impossible dream becomes possible." "All the unbelievable things you could accomplish, eternal questions you could answer." "And you just wanna get laid." "You'd do the same if it were you." "A no to that." "The machine still works." "The MRD is gone." "We could try to find the money." "In 36 hours?" "I don't see how." "What about Klaus?" "You have seen the future." "You could buy some stocks." "Play a little of the over-under on a game." "Did you happen to have a catch of the news before you left?" "It's over." "I'm done with the past." "This is goodbye." "The least I can do is buy you dinner." "Okay." "We'll let Jim Prime keep on without a clue." "At least until you're gone." "Where's Matty?" "He was devastated by what he did." "Didn't wanna face ya." "phone ringing" "This is you." "I mean...him." "I should take this." "Go ahead and order." "I'll be right back." "It's not done yet." "Chuck told me everything." "Chuck is an asshole." "I want to hear it from you." "Why did you really go through the wormhole?" "Because my heart was broken." "And you blame me?" "Abby." "The only one to blame here is me." "I did it to myself." "I'm willing to let technology take some of the fall here." "So I understand the only way to get the other Jim into the wormhole is to show up tomorrow with the dahlia and Klaus." "That is one scenario, yeah." "One that I would prefer not to repeat." "But if it would save your life..." "It wouldn't." "Because we're about 5 million shy of there even being a wormhole." "I can get the money." "No!" "Any questions about the menu?" "Can you please give us a minute?" "But it would be for us." "It would be so we could have more time together." "No!" "I'm not gonna let you do that!" "It's my choice, not yours." "Then it'll be your choice." "Take me as far as you can." "Checking in?" "Yes." "Name, please." "James Beale." "Seems you're already staying with us, Mr. Beale." "What?" "Right." "I forgot my keycard." "May I get a replacement, please?" "Of course." "There exists not one singular universe, but an infinite number of possibilities coinciding simultaneously and eternally." "Every conceivable version of every being persisting forward in the concurrent reality." "Your time-space excursion was not to the past of your present universe, on the contrary, it was simply a migration from your plane of existence to the one adjacent." "John Bane's time-space excursion was not to his own past." "Little did he realize, he had travelled to the past of a parallel universe." "A timeline, so similar to his own." "He had simply overlooked the differences." "An infinite number of possibilities, an infinite number of choices, an infinite number of outcomes." "Take me to the Grand hotel." "Mr. Meisner." "Would you be so kind as to wait here while I escort Ms. Ross and her dahlia to the lab floor?" "Is this really the way you want?" "Isn't there usually a champagne at these things, I could kill a whole bottle right now." "So, this is the way it's gonna be?" "It's the way it has to be." "The way it is." "It only seems that way now, but eventually, you will see it in a different light." "So, that's it then, you meant nothing." "Put these on." "I don't want you to miss the thing." "MRD in place." "Slide forward." "Lock it at high noon." "Engage sequence." "I'm not interested, so don't even try." "May not look like it, but I'm actually working." "Do you know who I am?" "Should I?" "Oh my god." "You look just like him." "Who?" "John." "A physicist named John Bane." "What a coincidence." "I'm a physicist." "They say he invented a time machine." "Did he?" "No one knows." "Anyways, he died in a lab explosion before I got to interview him." "Really?" "That's too bad." "The fire destroyed all of his work." "It's sad, really." "To be so close to controlling time, and then, poof." "Gone in an instant." "Time is a great teacher." "That eventually kills all of it's students." "I like that one." "That's a good one." "You have any more?" "Yeah." "Have a drink with me." "I'll tell you all about my time travel experiment." "Mine would make for a much better story." "Your story is better?" "Is that a fact?" "No." "Just a theory." "SubRip by:" "CrAzYPiLoT"
