"Subtitles by Renatinha Tankinha." "Every five seconds, someone lives." "And every eight seconds, someone dies." "And every second in between, we're here" "or here" "time... they say that time is lost in memory." "We cannot touch, see or control time." "We are essentially prisoners in this fourth dimension." "And one day, all of this will be gone." "Yet, for some reason, we don't seem to care too much" "and would rather fight each other." "The truth is... we are not really here for that long." "And for the majority of us, we only get one chance" "at all of this." "41" "Why?" "The question that has plagued the human mind since the birth of the world." "What is all this about?" "Who am I and how did we all get here?" "I find it interesting that everything seems so strange to us." "If we look at a word too long, if we really think too much," "It already doesn't make sense." "How strange is everything?" "We float on a giant water-covered ball in the middle of nothing." "Why is it so strange?" "Why does it seem so weird?" "What are we comparing this to?" "I want honest answers here, people." "Right now." "The question is of course the ultimate one:" ""Why are we here?"" "I know what I think." "I wanna hear what you all think." "Jennifer?" " The bible has all the answers for me, Mr. Wertz." "Thank you." "Finally some truth in this room." "I wanna hear something new for once." "Something totally different." "Raise your hands, people." "Dennis?" " Mathematically speaking, we're most likely a microscopic molecule in an atom that--- that makes up something a lot larger than we can comprehend." "If we add time to the equation." "We could-- we could be making up the dirt on the bottom of the universal sizes elephant that--that has taken one step in our galaxy's lifetime." " That's very interesting, Dennis." "And is this your truth?" " It just seems to make sense to me." "You know?" "We used to think that inside an atom was a couple of nuclei." "Now we've discovered an entire cosmos." "The--the solar system itself resembles the interior rotation of an atom anyway." "Science has to play a part in all of this." "Take your pants off and prove it!" " Please, please..." "ladies and gentlemen, please." "Anyone else?" "What do you think?" "Aidan, what do you think?" "I..." "I believe in the unknown." "I don't know." "I don't think we'll ever know the answer to that question." "So you believe in nothing?" " Oh, belief and reality are two different things." "Well, what about when you die?" " When I die?" " All of us." "Well, let me ask you, Jennifer." "What happens when you die?" "Heaven... or hell." "Dennis?" " That universal sized elephant just keeps on walking." "OK..." "OK." "Now, please, Aidan." " We've all been dead a lot longer than we've been alive." " OK now down to business." "Ladies and gentlemen, please take out your papers." "Officially, exclusively and mathematically this is your final Philosophy exam for the term this semester and the year." "Unfortunately, the remainder of your possible careers finals to this point." "So, if you feel you're not ready, bad luck." "You have four and a half hours, starting now." "Good luck." "See you in the future." "Hello." "What?" " You're gonna listen to me very carefully." "Don't go to the Ritz East Gate motel." "What is that supposed to mean?" "Don't go to the East Gate motel." "Stay away." "Wait!" "Wait--wait a minute!" "So..." "Sarah..." "Haven't heard of her." "It's open!" "Uh..." "She's pretty cute." " Really?" " She's got it going on." " How?" " I don't know." "Hey, how was your exam?" " Alright, she's cute." "You just... are you gonna talk to to me about her?" " Oh, what's cute about her?" " Uh..." "She's chubby, she's funny..." " Are you OK?" "I'm having... running round and round just doing finals stuff and..." " Did you just say that she's chubby and that's what you love about her?" " Yeah." " That's odd?" "That's..." " She lost so much weight, so." " She was sweet, wasn't she?" " I'm taking my bike after the exam and someone came up to me and it was... me, like..." " You?" " My clothes, my face, my voice, everything." " Were you standing in front of a girl?" " Was it like a cousin or relative or something that you didn't..." " At first I thought it was a joke, but then... when I actually looked it freaked me out." " Are you on drugs?" "Are you sure you want me to..." " He said "Don't go to the Ritz East Gate Motel."" "How?" "Are you gonna do it for me?" " I hate to..." " I just don't see why..." " What?" " Why would he say that?" "Don't go in the Ritz East Gate Motel?" " Yeah." " What's going on down there?" "Hello Gran." "I've seen you before." "Yeah." "Something like that." "Hello?" "Yeah, who else?" "Yes." "Middle name?" "Uh, it's Sal." "Listen man, I gotta go." " How was your exam?" " Yeah, it was fine, just fine." "Fingers crossed." "What's the matter?" "Something... happened this morning." " Are you in trouble?" " No, nothing like that, just... something weird happened." "I saw something I can't explain and.... does our family have a history of mental illness," "depression, paranoia, hallucinations?" " A golf ball drowned your grandfather, you know?" " Yes, I know, Gran." "Wish I could see him again." "Your great-grandmother had diabetes, there is a history of cancer, and both was too, in the men." "What does Lauren think?" "Oh, nothing." " When are you two gonna get married?" "I don't know, grandma." "Soon, maybe." "But first" "I want great-grandchildren and I want to be at the wedding, but not in that order." "OK." "So, nothing brain related?" "I just wanna make sure it's not all just... in my head." "Isn't everything just in your head?" "Will you read to me?" "Yeah, sure." "What shall we read?" "The four swans" "where did we stop?" "I'm at the beginning." "It's a good place." "Can I help you?" "Aidan." "Hey, Lauren." "What are you doing here?" "I'm sorry." "I didn't know you worked here." "How's things?" "Things are good." "How's your shift going?" "It's fine." "Good." "Are you here for something?" "This is gonna sound strange." "Have I been here before?" " I don't know." "Shouldn't you know that?" " I know it sounds weird, but have you seen me here before?" "Like someone who looks a lot like me?" "Uh, I don't think so." "I..." "E... everything alright here?" "Yeah, it's fine." " He said "Don't go to the Ritz East Gate Motel."" "Well, here I am." "Yeah..." "That's an interesting story." "And I don't know whether I should believe a word of it." " That makes two of us." " Don't you mean two of you?" "So what are you doing now?" "Nothing." "Nothing much." "Just working." "Just working?" "So you work, you go home and you do absolutely nothing?" " No." "I do things." " And?" "And I'm doing a painting course." "Painting?" "Really?" "Finally." " Yeah." "And how's your grandma?" "She's OK." "Uh... we had to put her in a home, pretty much." "Just after we broke up." " Oh..." "OK..." " it's been good to see you again, Lauren." "Good to see you, too, Aidan." "You still live around here?" "No, I've moved, actually." "Do you want a lift?" "Aidan?" "Yeah?" "I think I should tell you something." "Yeah?" " Something I should have told you a while ago." "Well, I'm just gonna say it." "Look out!" "OK..." "There's no signs of concussion or anything." "And he's gonna be sore for a couple of days, but either than that, he's gonna be absolutely fine." "OK." " Thanks." " Thanks." "Hey man." "Hi... hi." " Hey." " Hi." "How are you feeling?" " Fine." " Are you okay?" " You look pretty..." " What happened?" " You were in a car accident." " Yeah, it was pretty bad." "And... and the... the... the doctor called your grandmother and they called me and..." "And then I called Nick and... and we've been here for a while now." "Where's Lauren?" " Oh, and... and he said that you may have hit your head." "They think that maybe you've hit your head, so... um to ask you if... if... if your head hurts." "Where's Lauren?" "We could get you some water, we could..." "Get him some water." " Sit back." " Sit back..." "look, look, relax." "It's okay." "The doctor will be here any minute." "Don't sit up." "Just relax, it's fine." " The doctor will be here..." " I'm fine." "Sit back." "Where's Lauren?" "You cannot leave the hospital." "You are allowed to use the phone to call family and friends." "A lawyer has been assigned and will be meeting with you tomorrow." "So I'm being charged for something?" " Well, the family has stated that they'd like to press charges." "Given the circumstances of your past relationship with the deceased, they're having a hard time understanding what she was doing in the car with you." " Man, I was just going to drive her home." " You don't have to explain to us." " Yet." " Well, I don't see your lawyers present." " Just some of the things that have to be done these days, unfortunately." "Now, we have to be very clear on this." "You cannot leave the hospital." "Even though you're not in custody, if you do leave here, it can make things a lot worse." "Do you understand?" "Yeah." "Good." "Peanut butter and Russian currency, the Atlantic Ocean and a melted Rollerblade." "It's a great game." "Really simple." "You think of two things, any things, the only rule is they have to be as non-related as possible, just like you and me." "A lava lamp and a dead horse kidney." "The Atlantic Ocean and a melted Rollerblade." "Helps take your mind off things." "Give it a go." "No, thanks." "Well, maybe one day I'll find someone to actually play with." "You're in some trouble, I see." "(sing-songy) I know something you don't know." "Something weird happened to you." "Didn't it?" "Something really strange." "Something you don't seem able to explain and most likely..." " What?" " Git you into this mess." "How do you know about that?" "I could tell you, but you're gonna figure it out for yourself no matter what I say." "But I can give you a hint." "Go to the East Gate motel." " I knew it!" "I knew something was going on." "Room 41." "There's a hole in the bathroom." "In the ground." "You have to go into the floor!" "The floor?" "Exactly." "Hi, Aidan." "This is going to help you relax and sleep" "and make sure you stay here tonight." "Room 41, you said?" "And you're late!" " John turns up, and then, his best friend." "And she brings up her brother, You know who her brother is?" "Sam!" "Jess!" " Yeah, looks funeral gonna be one night next week I'm not sure when, but." "Um..." "I'll let you know when we've got some more detail." "Uh, can you hang on for a moment?" "I've got someone out here." "Uh, excuse me, can I help you?" "Come in." "Come in." "I'll..." "I'll..." "I'll have to... uh... call you back." "I've got to help somebody, OK?" "Yes, sir, how can I help you?" "I just wanna get a room." "Uh, fine, yes." "We've got... uh... got room." "We've got room 11... eh... just for yourself?" "One night?" "That's fine." "How are you gonna pay for that?" "Card?" "OK." "Thank you." "OK..." "Here you go." "OK, thanks very much." "Good." " It was late this afternoon when a car swerved off." "Berkey Road and hit this power pole behind me." "The passenger died on site while the driver was taken to the hospital with minimal injuries." "It is not yet known what caused the car to lose control, but police are pushing forward for full investigation." "Hey!" "Get out of me" " Hey, man." "It's me." " Get out!" "I'll stab you out!" "Aidan!" "I read your paper." "You really outdid yourself this time." " You could have told me, Mr.Wertz." "You know, it's minds like yours that... well... you really think outside the box." "Me and a couple of colleagues of mine, we meet every Wednesday to talk about... science related issues and..." " She's fine." "You talk to her for longer than sixty seconds and she still informs you that a golf ball thrown to my grandfather" "Grandfather." "Yeah, I do remember that." " I never actually told her that we broke up." "What?" "After all this time?" "Yeah, after all this time." "That's a bit strange, isn't it?" "It would have killed her." "She's still got that photo that you gave her for her eightieth birthday of us." "She loves you." "Still loves you." "I miss your grandma." " She called me out the other week and she told me she wanted to go bowling." "I said "Are you serious?"" "We went bowling and" "Amy was in the stand bow." "She was in her slippers and gown." "Bowled a few balls within the slab magazine thing." "She had fun." "Yeah, that's cute." " Mmm." " I love bowling." "You remember that time that--- - (together) We went bowling." "Watch out!" "Can I get an ambulance please?" "To room 41." "East Gate motel." " I don't know, like... he was really weird." "He was talking about this room 41 of a motel room that has a black hole that... that leads to yesterday and something about like... he was in a car accident with Lauren and she died." "And that he was the reason that she died?" "And he's gonna be back in time or something?" " Hey kid." " Hi." "How was your nap?" "You don't belive, right?" " Come on, man, you're actually joking, right?" " Come with me." " Why?" "Did you lose it?" " What for?" " No, I'm trying to prove a point." "Call him." "Hello?" "Who?" "Aidan." "This is you, Aidan." " It's the other Aidan." "He hasn't been through this yet, right?" " If this is Aidan, what's my brother's middle name?" "Uh, it's Sal." "Listen man, I gotta go." "Hello?" "Who tal" "He hung up." " What?" "Are you sure?" " You hung up." "Come on, this is actually a joke, right?" " Listen, you guys were both there, after the accident, in the hospital." "It's all gonna happen." " Look, it's just weird, alright?" "This is just getting really weird," "Aidan." "Look, I..." "I know that you had problems getting over Lauren and I understand that, really, we do, we care about you a lot, but Nick and I, we checked her Facebook page before and she was online." "She's not dead." " Not yet!" " Not yet?" "!" "Can you go forward in time?" "Like in the future?" " I don't know." "What if Nick said that to you?" "You know, "Ah, hey, I've found a motel room 41 with a black hole." " Crazy." " But at least check it out." " Crazy." " It's crazy." "No." "Because you remember this time last year I told both of you to come with me to the petrol station." "And I've been drinking but I saw Elvis." " Oh, hell no." " He's alive." "I saw him and you wouldn't believe me." " Shut up." " And you wouldn't believe me." " Shut up." "Guys, you're not listening to me!" "Just come to the motel with me and I can prove it all to you!" "I'm sorry, OK?" "We're not gonna come, OK?" "Oh, oh... here, look what we've done." " When all this happens..." " Look what we've done." "Where are you going?" " When all this happens, just act surprised." " Where you going, Sully?" " Aidan..." "I'm leaving." "Look..." " He's probably going for a sniff." " He's not going for a sniff." "Aidan..." "Hello, what brings you here?" "Hey, Mr. Wertz." "Sorry to bother you." "I got your listing from the... university." "You said you had a meeting here?" "Yes!" "Y-yes, of course." "Please, come in." "Thanks..." "It's screwed, but I disagree." "The fundamental world of mathematics exists only to comprehend the impossible." "One plus one does not always equal two." "Everyone, this is Aidan." "Professor Jacobs has a fascination with the alternative perspective of knowledge." "To think, to know is to..." "...know what to think." "Aidan, this is my very old friend," "Mr. Wertz." "Aidan takes my philosophy class in ?" "." "Top grades." "So, what brings you here, Aidan?" "I've got a few questions." ""Why" questions?" "Not why, how." "It's about time travel." "Ah, excellent." "Interest or research?" "Both." "Would you go forward or back?" "You can't go back." "It's already happened." "Forward is the most probable outcome. it's being proven that it's possible." "I'm writing a book." "A novel, actually." "So some of the questions I ask may seem a little out there." "We need more time-travel books in this world." "We don't need more books, Mr. Wertz." "We do need more scientists that make the ideas in those books a reality." "Professor Jacobs..." "I'm sorry, Aidan." "Go on." "Uh..." "It's about a guy who finds a hole in a room that leads to yesterday." "He goes through it and then comes back out twelve hours earlier." "Intriguing." "Impossible." "Let him finish." "if you were to travel backwards, in time, say, to yesterday, would you be...able to change your future?" "That all depends on the rules of the time travel setting." "Can the traveler see alternate versions of himself?" "Yes." "Definitely." "So that's complicated." "because time doesn't exist in nature, of course." "It's a measurement of movement in space." "I tend to disagree with that." "Nature is based in time." "But we can go on and on all night arguing about what does and doesn't exist." "I guess." "So, what are the rules?" "How does it all work?" "Well, in fiction there are four elements of time." "What about non-fiction?" "I guess it would be the same." "If you could travel through time, there would have to be a hole in space-time, a rip, if you like." "If you could survive the journey through the hole, well, you'd arrive at the same space at a different time, or a different space, different time." "Correct me if I'm wrong." "Yeah, like a wormhole or a Stargate." "Go on." "You're doing fine." "So, if you could travel back through...uh..." "I'll tell you what; a visual might be useful here." "What are you doing?" "So, this is your life from birth to death." "And this is you today." "So, if we would go back in time to..." "Yesterday." "...yesterday," "OK, now, if time is circular, you would bring space back to yourself and travel through." "You could in theory visit past versions of yourself." "In a two parallel universe theory one that is all in slices, an infinite amount really, it wouldn't actually be time but another dimension in reality." "Because time..." "Doesn't exist in nature." "Well, I need to add that." "So, what does this man do when he goes through the hole?" "Uh...well, he's trying to save somebody." "A girl." "Classic." "Predictable." "So, he's already in a parallel universe, because past versions of himself have already visited him before he traveled." "You seem confused by your own writing." "It's very confusing." "There's no pattern to it." "He tried to stop the accident as many times as he could, but nothing ever worked." "if he can't change his own future surely he can change the future of a different version of himself." "Exactly. he cannot change his own line of existence and yet influence another line." "Then that sucks." "So he needs to change a different version of himself to get the desired result." "This story needs more emotion." "How does he know this girl?" "Uh, it's his ex-girlfriend." "Weak, overused plot element." "He needs to save a part of himself." "But wouldn't the girl be a part of himself?" "A part of his history?" "Only if he set up a relationship in the beginning." "Set up to destroy." "It..." "lacks surprise, but it works." "What you'd really need is a twist." "There are a lot of twists." "But.." "That's what keeps it into these days." "Special effects and twists." "None. he just goes through the hole." "Turns up at the same hole." "Sounds like the last 25 years of my marriage." "Well, thanks for letting me speak to your friends tonight, Mr.Wertz." "You're more than welcome, mate." "Are you sure you're OK?" "Yeah." "I'm all good." "So where would you go?" "If you could?" "I don't know." "How about you?" "Forward first and then back to fix it." "When I was twelve years old, I had this idea." "Most of my friends had dreams of flying." "Mine were of traveling through time, as a matter of fact." "I'd sit down at my grandfather's typewriter and write to the universe." "The idea was to become famous." "I'd put the call out that I wanted to travel through time." "Go on T.V.  newspapers, concerts, t-shirts, books, really put the word out there that" "I wanted to travel through time." "But I realized that time travel in my lifetime would be impossible." "So I hoped that someone in the future would remember the time travel kid." "When time travel was actually possible, you know?" "They'd go back and come and get me." "Maybe one day." "So, your character....can it go forward?" "Only back." "Make sure he goes back for the right reasons." "Make sure he influences the most important situations." "I will." "Aidan, 27. graduated two years ago, extremely high marks in philosophy and psychology." "You were a state champion scout member." "Mom left you as a baby, then Gran took the rights." "You broke up with Lauren a few years ago, decided to take her on a joy ride." "You crashed the car, killed her, then ran away and then you find yourself here." "Dum, dum, dum..." "Can I ask you why you left the hospital?" "I don't know." "Do you remember us telling you that you shouldn't?" "Yeah." "You're deep in a lot of trouble, Aidan." "We know what you did and why you did it." "Were you supposed to die in that crash?" "Is that why you're upset?" "Your plan didn't work out properly?" "I had nothing to do with it." "The accident." "Ah.... the boy's triggered a memory." "Things don't add up, Aidan." "You seemed genuinely concerned the last time we spoke to you, then you decided to just run off." "Not to get away, but to go back to... where you ....picked her up from." "So, the question is... what happens next?" "What happens, Aidan?" "You confess to us, right now." "You're heading to court, the judge will be lenient, say nothing, confess silence, your penalty will be something to regret." "So what's it gonna be?" "You wanna know the truth?" "Please." "I found a time portal." "A hole that leads back to yesterday." "Wow..." "This is classified as insanity." "I tried to go back and stop the accident." "I couldn't save her." "They never can." "So you killed her and then went back in time to stop yourself from killing her?" "I'm telling you the truth." "So, you can really travel back in time?" "So, why waste that privilege on trying to save Lauren?" "You still love her." "I went back to stop the accident from happening." "To save her." "I couldn't." "So I have to go back and try again." "Why not go back in time and break yourself out of custody?" "I'm not the only one of me out there." "Thanks for the idea." "Woohoo!" "Hoohoohoo." "Come on!" "Come dance with me!" "Come dance." "Come dance with me!" "You'll be waiting." "You're not even funny." "Ha-ha!" "You got Meth?" "Got heroin?" "Got any of the good kind?" "Huh?" "You got to answer." "You got to answer to me." "Never." "We're in this together." "Dancin', dancin', you gonna dance with me?" "Try this step." "This works well." "This works well." "Try this step." "Try it." "Try these." "Try dancing with me." "Hey, hey, hey...you have to swap with me." "Yeah, yeah, yeah!" "Alright!" "Oh, good step!" "Oh!" "Oh!" "OK...go." "Oh, wow!" "Look!" "Shh!" "Gotta keep dancing, man." "We're ahead of you, beginner." "it can't hurt." "We'd go home." "Really good, man." "Don't leave me." "Don't go." "Don't go!" "Don't leave me!" "Don't go!" "Don't leave me!" "Come back!" "Come back!" "Me and you!" "Oh!" "[indistinct radio chatter]" "[indistinct radio chatter]" "[indistinct radio chatter]" "Hey!" "[indistinct radio chatter]" "[indistinct radio chatter]" "Hey!" "It's me, Aidan." "Sorry?" "Can...can I help you?" "You don't remember, do you?" "I'm sorry?" "Can I ask you a question?" "I think you just did." "What do you do for a living?" "I'm a lawyer." "Was there ever a chance any lot of this could have gone another way?" "I don't know what you mean." "Like your lot could have changed?" "Like you weren't gonna be a lawyer?" "Well, yes, as a matter of fact I almost went off to war." "And then what happened?" "I..." "I registered and I was preparing to leave and then the strangest thing happened." "I'm sorry." "I don't know you." "That's alright." "You've said enough." "You've changed, moved on, it's...it's possible." "OK." "Tomato sauce and the musical Archie." "A blue guitar and a frozen gorilla lamp." "Hello?" "I've seen you before." "Grandma." "I wish..." "I could see your grandfather again." "Can I take you somewhere?" "No..." "I'm so sorry." "No, nothing." "Will you read to me?" "Yeah, sure." "In my bag at the top." "Where shall we begin?" "The end." "Oh, well, you again!" "Is this the first time?" "Or the second time?" "Yesterday or...or tomorrow?" "Who knows?" "Who cares?" "You might wanna put that knife down." "Oh know." "You can't stop me from cutting myself." "Don't you get it yet?" "If I don't cut myself, I don't get take to hospital," "I don't meet you for the first time, and tell you to come here!" "I can't change it?" "You can only influence it to change it, not intervene." "You can't physically stop me from cutting myself!" "So how do you...know that you're gonna tell me to come here if I'm already standing in front of you and you haven't been to the hospital yet?" "Exactly!" "So how do I influence time?" "Open the door please, it's the management." "I saw you." "A better version---a different version of you." "You saw her, did you?" "Thought I'd try it out." "Worse." "It will change your life." "Not exactly, but close enough, right?" "What the hell?" "You think that's how we go there?" "You're a smart one!" "How did you do it?" "How did you influence the alternate version of you to do..." "The trick is to stop the person from being in the situation in the first place." "if you can figure that out." "Open please." "Open up." "Remember... time travels with you." "Hello." "Hello." "I'm looking for Bloodfield." "Oh, you're a field away from there." "Oh, really?" "Say...you look familiar." "Do we know each other?" "Not yet." "Aidan." "Dwight." "This is Aidan, dear." "Oh." "Aidan, this is my wife." "Hello." "Nice to meet you, Aidan." "Stop it..." "I'm going to give Aidan a lift in the town." "Would you like anything?" "Yeah, actually, if you could return the library books for me that would be great." "Say, you look awfully familiar to me." "I get that a lot." "I said the same thing." "Must just be all in my head." "Isn't everything all just in your head?" "Well, we should be off." "OK." "Bye." "Lovely to met you, Aidan." "You too." "Goodbye." "A golf ball drowned your grandfather." "You know?" "Wish I could see him again." "I've got something." "What is it?" "You have to open it tomorrow." "Tomorrow?" "Don't open it until then." "It's very important." "See you soon." "So, your character, can it go forward?" "Only back." "Make sure he goes back for the right reasons." "Make sure he influences the most important situations." "I will." "You have to go to the East Gate motel." "Can I walk you home?" "The truth is we're not really here for that long." "And for the majority of us, we only get one chance." "At all of this."
