"I guess it was a way for me to fool myself." "Oh I know." "So what do I do?" "It's none of my business." "It's always been up to you." "Don't do that." "I'm not asking you to always be my buddy." "Don't patronize me." "Argue with me." "Tell me I'm wrong and wasting my time." "Tell me what you would do with all this." "Well that's the point." "You're asking me what I would do." "This is it." "I'm already doing what I want." "Don't ask me, ask yourself." "What do you want?" "Are you happy doing what you're doing?" "I don't do anything." "And why not?" "I don't know." "I guess I just don't know what to do." "At least now you know what you have to figure out." "Can I ask you something?" "Yeah." "Why didn't you say anything to me before?" "[exhales] [clears throat]" "I thought staying out of your way would..." "I guess I've never been comfortable telling you what to do when it's your situation that allows me to do what I want to do, okay." "Yeah but you're still my dad." "Just because I pay for things doesn't mean you lose the right to tell me when I'm being foolish." "I need that." "I'm sorry." "So did you want to join me?" "No thanks." "I think I have a meeting I need to arrange." "I'll try it next time, I promise." "[cheerful] Okay." "[bicycle wheels clicking] [elevator bings]" "(receptionist) You're confirmed for 2 o'clock tomorrow." "(receptionist) Yes I can have th-the... [wheels spinning]" "Uh huh." "[spinning continues] [wheels spinning] [footsteps]" "[wheels spinning]" "[papers rustling]" "Whatever you're about to ask me the answer is no." "I need your help." "With what?" "A stakeout." "With who?" "I need to find myself." "Look don't get me involved with your existential crisis." "No, I mean literally." "I know what you mean." "Do you think that's a good idea?" "I need to talk to myself and find out why I'm doing these things." "What do you need me for?" "What do you want me to do?" "You can't do a stakeout solo." "No I'm pretty sure that you can." "Come on, Murray." "I need you to help me get a car." "Why do you suddenly need a car?" "I can't have a stakeout on my bicycle." "Besides I can't fit a car through the door, obviously." "I figured we could borrow your car or my dad's." "In the past." "That's a terrible idea." "I'm not stealing a car." "Okay then my dad's." "Just buy a car." "You're rich." "Right." "I didn't think of that." "I'll definitely need your help with that." "I'm not going." "When are you going?" "Right now." "Look I'm not good with sentiment." "I know you do a lot and tolerate a lot just to be my friend." "And I know right now I'm asking you to do something that really doesn't involve you." "Except that I need you there." "And I promise you this time." "I will make it up to you." "Were you in your office on Wednesday around 3 p.m.?" "No." "I was out all afternoon." "Great." "What are you doing?" "I'm concentrating." "This is how it works." "[door creaks] [door knob rattles]" "[footstep]" "[door squeaking] [door clunks]" "(receptionist) Oh, Mr. Franklin." "I thought you were at your 3 o'clock." "I am." "I mean I'm on my way." "[phone ringing] [footsteps]" "You know..." "Yesterday looks a lot like today." "This is two days ago." "Well it looks a lot like today." "[elevator bings]" "Yeah." "[door clunks] [footsteps]" "[traffic]" "Okay so what are we looking for?" "I'm following you." "I've never owned a car before." "I have no idea what I'm looking at." "Alright, well." "Anyone of these will do." "Just pick a color." "[nervous] Okay." "Alright, fine." "Hey what about that van?" "That's fine." "Wait here." "I'll be right back." "Wa-wait, Murray," "I'll do it." "I'll buy the car." "[skeptical] You?" "Yeah." "You sure?" "I'm positive." "[footsteps]" "Wait, Murray!" "Murray!" "What?" "I just need to know..." "How do I pay for it?" "[deep breath] [food crunching]" "Alright so..." "What's your plan?" "[deep breath]" "We wait here until I show up." "Then I confront myself." "That's it?" "That's it." "You sure this won't blow up the universe?" "Nope." "I can't say for certain." "[chewing]" "I have no idea what I'm getting into." "Ever since I've been coming back..." "It's just felt lonely." "Like, I don't know." "I feel like I'm outside the world back here." "Like I'm just visiting." "Which I guess is how it always feels." "Maybe it's starting to make sense." "What is?" "It's me." "What is?" "No, I mean it's me." "There I am." "[grunting]" "What are you doing?" "I don't know we're here." "Oh I felt like we should be ducking." "No." "So what do you want to do now?" "I don't know." "Nothing yet." "That's not the me we're looking for." "That's not the me I chased." "Well where is he?" "I don't know." "He's got to be around here somewhere." "[crunching]" "I'm getting out." "Wait a second." "You sure?" "Yeah." "Take these." "If you see anything strange..." "Nevermind." "[door unlocks]" "Be careful." "Yeah." "[door slams] [traffic]" "[frantic piano music]" "Hey!" "Hey!" "[footsteps]" "[footsteps]" "[footsteps]" "[footsteps]" "[door clicks] [door vanishes] swooosh [footsteps]" "[ocean waves lapping] [wind blowing]" "[footsteps]" "[seagulls squawking]" "Hey." "Hey." "You have questions." "A few." "We've got some time." "If you wanted me to come here all along why didn't you tell me that from the start?" "You can't just tell yourself to be something and expect to be it." "It doesn't work that way." "How does it work?" "I can't tell you." "I don't know what works and what doesn't." "To be completely honest with you, when I first started using the door" "I couldn't." "I..." "I couldn't figure out how it worked." "It took me a lot longer than you to figure out that I had to focus on where I wanted to go." "So you've been doing this for a long time?" "A little while." "I know why I went back." "I went to fix what you changed." "I'm having a hard time figuring out what you were trying to do in the first place." "I thought I could make things better." "I tried to change everything about my life by going back and changing every little thing." "Every decision." "Unimportant things." "I think I was trying to make everything perfect and that just doesn't work." "I started to lose sight of why I was doing it in the first place." "It wasn't until you started making changes that I realized what the point of it all was." "This conversation is as important for me as it is for you." "I tried everything." "The notes and types." "The whole thing." "I don't know what worked." "I don't know what's going to happen now because you're making choices that I didn't." "That changes things." "So I'm kind of in control?" "Everything changes for me because of what you do." "Yeah?" "Yeah." "Well that's good, right?" "That's up to the both of us." "So where do we go from here?" "Well you'll have to go back, obviously." "I'm not sure." "What did you think would happen when you found me?" "I guess I thought you would explain everything." "Give me some answers." "When you ask questions of yourself you get answers you already know." "Sometimes you just aren't ready to hear them." "[ocean waves crashing]" "Can you do me a favor?" "Tell Murray to go to Houston." "Am I supposed to know wha that means?" "No, this one's not about you." "[exhales]" "So is the future awesome?" "[footsteps]" "[door unlocks]" "[door slams]" "How'd it go?" "It went fine." "Fine how?" "Interrupt my day, travel back in time, buy a car, do a stakeout, wait around, and now we're going home." "Are you done?" "I'm just saying." "You know, Murray," "I got a message for you." "From who?" "From me." "What?" "You should go to Houston." "What's in Houston?" "Animal cookie?" "[bag crinkling]" "[crunching] [birds chirping]" "[sticky notes peeling]" "[peeling continues]" "[paper crinkling]" "[sticky notes peeling]" "[sticky note peels]" "[poster crinkling]" "[paper crumpling] [garbage bag rustling]" "[footsteps]" "[bag clunks] [trash can wobbles]" "[tarp rustling]" "[ocean waves crashing] [waves crashing]" "[footsteps] [water splashing]" "[water splashes]" "[waves crashing] [ominous music]" "[waves crashing]" "[engine idling] [waves lapping]" "[door splashes]" "[engine rumbling]" "Thanks." "[crickets chirping] [exhales]" "[lid flaps]" "Wow." "That's a lot of cupcakes." "That's what I'm excited about." "They look like magic." "How can you tell?" "I'm an expert on magic." "Really?"
