- I believe in America.

I believe in the
people of America.

Although this election
didn't go our way,

I believe we made a difference.

And you can be sure
we'll continue to fight.

Maggie and I would like
to thank every one of you

who helped us get this far.

This was never about me.

This is about us.

This is about you.

This is about the future.

Jesus Christ, Roger.

He didn't lose because
he used profanity.

He lost because he was
outspent three-to-one.

I don't care.

You're not sitting in
the front, are you?

Yeah, why not?

Have a good
trip, Mrs. Lambert.

- No, I know.

I understand.

Ellen, thank you.

Where you headed?

This old family lake
house down in Georgia.

Haven't been back in 20 years.

It should be pretty romantic.

Great.

So the airport then?

Yeah, unless you want
to drive us to Georgia.

I wasn't going to
drive you to Georgia.

Right.

Oh, Yeah.

Yep.

Airport's fine.

Honey, seriously.

Media blackout.

Well, now the child's
parents are claiming

he has hearing loss.

Hi.

We have a reservation
under Lambert.

Are you self-driving
or fully automated?

Self-driving.

Look, I don't want to hear
anything more about it.

Really.

That's why we came down south.
Nobody knows me here--

Hey!

Jack Lambert!

Fuck, yeah!

You know, we could
still go to Hawaii.

Don't do that.

You're going to love this.

Small town, middle and
nowhere, nobody to bother us.

Well, if the house sells
fast, we could do a short trip.

Romantic weekend in Maui.

This is going to
be plenty romantic!

The woods, the lake,
the starry sky.

Doesn't sound so bad.

You'll see.

Air's just different down here.

It's humid, for sure.

But it's just so full of life.

And once we get
to the lake house,

everything just fades away.

It's rustic.

It hasn't changed at all.

Come on.

Has anyone been taking
care of this place?

For about a year
since dad died.

Are you sure your friend
can handle the work?

Oh yeah, Patrice is a pro.

- Pretty retro.

- It is so weird.

I haven't been back here
since I was a teenager.

Please.

You were never a teenager.

I'm going to go
check out the view.

Yeah, you should.
It's pretty amazing.

Not sure about your
dad's taste in decor,

but you were right
about the view.

Oh.

What's this?

That
is proof that, uh,

I actually was a teenager once.

Wow, look at that goofy smile.

Yeah, that was before
all the media training.

Who's the girl?

That's, uh, Elise.

She's cute.

Local girl who got away.

Yeah.

Wow.

Dad really let this place go.

Well, I guess we
won't be running.

What?

You can clean this
up with a machete.

It'll be good for you.

Yeah, I'll have
Patrice look at it.

Are you sure it's safe?

Of course.

My dad built it himself.

It's solid.

Oh!

- Are you OK?

Yeah.

Found a little spot
that needs to fix.

I'll have Patrice look at it.

- Are you sure you
know what you're doing?

Yeah, you just, uh,
flip these switches here.

Yay!

I'll have Patrice look at it.

You'll have
Patrice look at it.

Nice.

Voila.

What's wrong?

What is this?

Ravioli.

I know, it's not
part of your diet,

but there's nothing
else in the house.

Hey, I used to love this stuff.

My dad used to make it
for me all the time.

You're going to love it.

Mm.

Uh-uh.

Oh my god.

Either that's gone, or
my tastes have changed.

- Oh no, honey.

When something's good,
it's always good.

That looks terrible.

Hey.

I'm sorry.

I'm just tired.

I wanted everything
to be perfect.

That's why you're perfect.

Come here.

There is so much to choose from.

Yeah.

Just grab a cheddar
or something.

I'm going to get
a bottle of wine.

Oh!

Damn it, sorry.

I didn't see you.

Elise?

Yeah.

- Jack?

Found a decent Camembert.

What's with you in cans?

There's fresh
asparagus over there.

Um, I-- I like it in the can.

You like it in the can?

Do you even hear
the things you say?

And here's the
little reading nook.

Say hi to Jack.

Hi, Jack.

Hey, Louise.

Louise thinks with some
paint and a few repairs,

she can unload this place fast.

Oh.

Well, hopefully to someone
who appreciates it.

Oh, that's got to be Patrice.

Can you take me
back to the kitchen?

Uh, sure.
We have to be quick.

Holy shit.

You look great, man.

Hey, you know, you know.

Keeping it tight.

Right.

What are you wearing, khakis?

Relaxed fit, baby.

Hey, listen, I gotta talk
to you about something.

Ooh, and this must be
her, your beautiful wife!

Hello, Patrice.

Oh, hello.

It is so good to
finally meet you.

Hey, I'm sorry I couldn't
make it out to the wedding.

You know, I was--

No, don't worry about that.

That was so long ago.

You know, I was just getting
my business up and running.

Jack says you're doing well.

Hey, you know,
I wouldn't trust

anything a politician says.

Yeah, hey, hey.

But yeah, I'm doing good.

Definitely excited to get
to work on this house.

Lot of great memories here.

It could use an update.

Oh, no, no, no.

I love it.

How long has it been since
you've seen each other?

Um.

10 years?

When I came up to New York.

Yeah, that's right.

10 years.

Hey, listen, I'd offer you a
beer, but they're all warm.

Hey, no worries.

I'll just grab my gear.

OK.

I'll get us some wine.

All right.

Thanks, hon.

Goddamn, you got
you a hot one, huh?

Yeah, yeah.

Hey, listen-- I saw Elise.

Shit.

- So I'm not going crazy?

She only been
back a little while.

Cause that bullshit
company hired her daddy.

I mean, they fly out there
10 years to the colony,

and nothing's ready to go?

I mean, most of
them colonists they

shipped off to another project.

But couldn't unload everybody,
so sent their asses back

another 10 years in space.

That's horrible.

Sure.

But you know, they're
getting their settlement.

Hell, I
wouldn't mind getting

paid for 20 years of sleeping.

She hasn't changed at all.

No, man.

You know how that
whole thing works.

Speed of light.

Hibernation.

Nobody ages on that damn trip.

I know, my dad helped
develop the program.

That's why they're not
supposed to come back.

It's weird.
- Oh.

Here we go!

Can I get you anything else?

Thank you, thank you.

What do you think?

Do you think we can get this
place fixed up in a week or so?

Uh, yeah, yeah.

Bring a few guys on.

We'll paint, fix what's broken.

Yeah, but you don't
want to do too much

and kill the charm
of this place.

Nothing too new.

Oh.

Oh!

There you go.

Yeah, man.

Perfect.

Do you mind taking a
look at the dock, too?

Maggie, we just wanted to
catch you up for a minute.

Oh, no, no, no.
No, it's no big deal.

Let's go.
- Thank you.

I'll get a cheese plate going.

Mm-hmm.

"I'll get a cheese plate going."

Shut up.

She's been a good partner.

- Always a romantic.

Hey, where's she living?

Who?

Oh, Elise?

Yeah, well, she's staying out
of her grandmother's house

until the money--

no.

What?

No, don't talk to her, man.

I didn't even tell
her you were coming.

She knows I'm here.

She saw me too.

Look, look.

She's only 18.

It's not like that, man.

I-- I don't want to--

I just-- I just
want to talk to her.

Oh, and what would you say?

I don't know.

Exactly.

You don't know.

And it's not just the
physical thing, OK?

You see, to you, that's
almost 20 years ago.

But to her, it's only
been a couple months.

Coming?

Yeah.

Yeah.

Watch these steps, too.

Well that's one thing
I need you to fix.

Oh yeah?

Yeah.

Can we take a minute?

I know, I just--

I need a minute.

.

Hey, what do you know
about time dilation?

What?

Time dilation.

You know, time
passes differently

at different speeds.

Like the colony ships?

Right.

Let's go.

Oh, god.

People travel close to the
speed of light, time slows down.

Years are flying by down here.

But for people on the
ships, it's like nothing.

That's why the ships aren't
supposed to come back.

If somebody did, they'd
basically be time traveling.

What are you getting at?

Well, you know Elise?

The girl from the photo?

Your old girlfriend?

Well, right, yeah.

She's, uh, she's back.

What are you talking about?

Her dad got a job
off-world, and she

had to leave on one of the
colony ships when we were,

like, 17.

But, uh, something
went wrong, I guess,

and she had to come back.

So it's like the last 20
years for her didn't happen.

Patrice told me.

Wait a minute.

Your old girlfriend
came back from space.

And she's still a teenager.

Yeah, that's what I'm saying.

Wow.

Honey, I had no idea.

You thought
that I'd be jealous?

Oh, I don't know.

Maybe.

It's weird.

It's amazing.

I read an article all
about it last year.

I'd invite her over.

Really?

Yeah, of course.

She came back from space!

And she knew you back then.

We must invite her
over for dinner.

OK.

Seriously.

You're blowing my
mind right now.

Come on, let's get
your heart rate up.

- Stay here.

I'll get some paper towels.

You've got to stop
doing this to yourself.

You already have
enough health problems.

I'm fine.

It's just-- it's
just food poisoning.

Whatever.

Coming!

Hi, Elise.

Hi.

Uh, Patrice told me
you were living here.

Is everything OK?

Sorry, is it-- is it a bad time?

Never thought
I'd see you again.

Me too.

You dropped this at the store.

What?

Your asparagus.

I bought it for you.

I wasn't buying it, dummy.

I work there.

Oh.

OK.

All right.

Thank you.

Yeah, no, of course.

You look so old.

OK.

Wow, thank you.

I guess 20 years will do that.

And you dress like a salesman.

I am dressed like a--

So listen.

I wanted to invite you
to dinner tomorrow night.

I mean, we.

We wanted to invite you to
dinner-- my wife and I. Maggie.

Maggie?

- Yeah, I've been
married five years now.

Five years.

I was hoping we could
catch up, you know?

You can bring your dad.

I know he was never really fond
of me, but I'd love to see him.

So what do you say?

We're staying at the lake house.

Do you remember where it is?

Yeah.

Like it was yesterday.

Right.

Yeah.

Um.

So, tomorrow night?

Say,- 00?

Sure.

- 00 could work.

OK then.

Great, I'll see
you tomorrow night.

- Elise!

Who's the fifth person?

Patrice.

Ah.

He couldn't work today,
but he can come to dinner?

Well, I thought it'd
be nice for Elise.

Does it matter?
- No.

No, it's fine.

Um, listen, I need
you to hold still.

I've got Roger.
He's--

No, no, no, I don't
want to talk to him--

- Jacky-Jack!
Boo!

You handsome fuck.

How are you, man?

Hi, Roger.

Ah, buddy, I miss you so much.

You get my messages?

Nope, we've been
on a media blackout.

ROGER What is that?

Is that some sort
of a new party drug?

You gonna share
with Uncle Roger?

I'm kind of busy here, Roger.

ROGER
Yeah, I'll be quick.

Good news.
It turns out the kid?

Not hearing loss, just a tumor.

Dodged a bullet.

Oh my god.

Second piece of good news.

Turns out Janet
Chang had a stroke.

How is that good news?

ROGER
Relax, she'll be fine.

They got the nanobots in there.
They're cleaning things out.

And in a few months, she's be
back to scowling at people.

My point is, she's not
going to be able to enter

the governor's race.

OK.

ROGER
Which means only Folger

is left for the nomination.

Everybody knows he's weak.

Wait.

We couldn't have asked
for a better timing.

You've got a very high
profile right now.

Folger is old news.

Yeah, but everybody
thinks I'm crazy.

ROGER
Forget about that, man.

People liked your
passion when they saw

you yelling at that kid, OK?

They just didn't
know you well enough.

What are you doing?

There's a line.

Where are you, Roger?

Oh, dude, I'm at this new
place called Bread Line.

Doesn't that look awful?

Yeah, my wife sent me here.

You gotta wait in this line,
and when you get to the front

they give you bread.
Anyway, listen to me.

Jack, you keep doing your thing.

You show people that
you're a family man.

Light that fire in your belly.

He's right, Jack.

ROGER And
then you put a little fire

in Maggie's belly.
Am I right, Mags?

Yeah, well, it's
a big decision.

ROGER
It's a big decision.

You got a little time.

But listen, just a little time.

Ideally, call me back tomorrow.

OK?

We'll figure this out.

I swear to God, touch me.

Go ahead, touch my fucking arm.

That goes for all of you.

I swear to God, it's a line.

Governor?

Why not?

Just dinner, and
then we're gone.

Don't start, Dad.

Hi, come on in, guys.

Hi, Hank.

You look just like your father.

Great, thanks.

Hi.

I'm Maggie, Jack's wife.

Nice to meet you.

Hi, Elise.

Hi.

Hi.

Come here.

Oh my god, you're adorable.

Thank you.

May I?

Sure.

Thank you.

Um, is it cool if we drink this?
- Oh, yeah.

- Gimme that.
- Dear god please.

- Let's do that right now.
- I'll get it.

I'll tell you something.

When you watch things
change, you barely

even notice it happening.

Skip ahead 20 years, and you
really see how things are.

Everything looks old.

Everybody looks fat.

I told your father
he needed to keep things up

better around here, but he
never listened to anybody other

than himself.

Wouldn't argue with that.

So you knew
Jack's father well?

Uh-uh.

Actually, I met him
because of these two.

- Oh.

Jack never told me how you met.

We met at the movies.

Outside of the movies.

Come on, Jack!

You wrote a whole poem about it.

A poem?

It's disgustingly romantic.

You don't want
to hear about it.

Oh, I do.

I was with a friend of mine.

My best friend Claire, actually.

Do you know she's
born again now?

Oh yeah, yeah.

She used to be a
hardcore punk atheist.

So weird.

Anyway, we were at
the ticket stand.

And I only had pockets
full of change.

So I was counting out the
coins, and a boy bumped into me.

And then there were coins
bouncing everywhere.

But one of them
landed on its side.

It started rolling
down the line,

and it weaved left and
right, around people,

like it had a mind of its own.

I mean, it even hopped
over someone's foot

and kept rolling.

I was standing at the back
of the line with Patrice,

actually.

Yeah, I saw the whole thing.

We were-- we were
just goofing around,

doing I don't know what.

But all of a sudden,
there was this commotion.

And I looked down,
and this coin's just

heading straight toward me.

It was weird because even
back then, nobody used coins.

So it just zigs and zags.

It didn't make sense.

And then it just
came right to me.

I stood up, and there she was.

There you were.

You were my hero.

And then you stole from me.

I paid for your movie.

You kept my coin.

I tried to give
it back to you.

Like that kind of asparagus.

What?

Yeah, it's nothing.

When I bumped into
Jack at the market, I--

I dropped a can of asparagus,
and he brought it back to me.

Didn't realize I
worked there, I guess.

Disgusting, right?

It is.

How did you and Jack meet?

We met at a bar.

Oh

Yeah, Jack was very drunk.

I was very drunk.

And we both wanted pizza.

We had that in
common right away.

So we went out and
we found pizza.

And the next day, he called me
and he didn't remember my name.

I thought he was such a jerk.

And then I gave
him another chance,

and he cleaned up quite nicely.

We were married two years later.

It wasn't very romantic,
but relationships,

they change and they grow.

And it's not about
how they start.

It's about all the nights
in those bad motels,

and the takeout, and sitting
in the church meetings,

and the ballgames, and all
of the long drives in the car

going up and down the state
listening to constituents.

Trying to make a
difference in their lives.

That's what I cherish.

That's what I cherish.

Sorry.

More wine?

Yes.

Elise.

What was that trip like?

I mean, not many people
have gone that far

and then come all the way back.

I don't really remember.

We were asleep.

Didn't you dream?

No.

I don't think so.

Nothing?

I remember pieces.

The heavy clang of
the chamber door.

The coolness against my skin.

I remember my eyes
getting really heavy,

and then this feeling of
sort of falling back like you

get when you're
just almost asleep.

Except I couldn't reach out
to catch myself or to wake up.

I just kept falling
back into what felt

like an infinite nothingness.

That sounds awful.

It was peaceful.

I imagine it's what a baby
feels like in its mother's womb.

Floating.

You didn't feel
all that time pass?

When you're in a different
state of consciousness,

you don't feel time pass at all.

I mean, it could have been
a second or 100 years.

When I finally opened my eyes
and looked out the window,

it was so big.

Larger.

What's that word?

Vast.

Vast.

So many stars and colors and
spirals and glowing clusters.

I thought I'd feel
small surrounded

by all that darkness, but
instead it was beautiful.

And vast mystery all around you.

But I wasn't afraid.

I was filled with wonder.

What about the colonies?

It was a fucking disaster.

For starters, they
grossly oversold

how fast things were moving.

They were barely at 20%.

Atmospheric complications,
structural integrity

issues, and don't
even get me started

on the government corruption.

See, they couldn't take us all.

So some genius decided to
have a fucking lottery.

A lottery?

For what?

To determine who
would get to stay, Jack.

- But y'all got that--

that big settlement
though, right?

- That was a joke too.

20 years, gone.

Just like that.

And for what?

I mean, all my friends
are retired old men.

My body's gone to
shit from the Hibernation.

And to top it all off, I
don't have a fucking job.

You know what's really funny is
they haven't even given Elise

here her money yet because--

now, get this--
she just turned 18.

She was born almost
40 years ago!

Easy, Dad.

I'm fine.

Bureaucratic
jackasses, all of them.

You know something, Hank?

When I was a Congressman,
one of my key issues

was protecting colonists
from corporate malfeasance.

Especially the children.

Were you able to do something?

We did help some kids.

I wanted a stronger
bill, but there was a lot

of money on the other side.

In the end, the legislation
wasn't exactly what I wanted.

But, well, we had to make
a lot of compromises.

You're more like your father

than I thought.

Big promises and
delivers very little.

Cheers.

Hey, you OK?

Yeah, I'm fine.

Good.

Weird scene, huh?

Yeah.

It's always strange when
your wife and your girlfriend

meet for the first time.

Hey, why don't you bring
Hank on to work with you here?

Because
he's an asshole.

Come on,
he knows the place.

And he needs the work.

Jack, you're both
about the same age now.

You don't have to impress him.

As a favor to me.

OK.

But if he shows up to work
drunk, I get to drink too.

Where should I put this?

Oh, uh, you can
put them anywhere.

I don't mind washing them.

Oh, it's fine.

In my kitchen at home, you just
throw the dishes in the sink,

and the next day you can
pull them out of the cabinet.

How does it do that?

I don't really know.

Is that a friendship bracelet?

Yeah.

My friend Claire made it for me.

I used to wear
those all the time.

Are they back in style?

I don't-- I don't know.

They were when I left.

Oh, yeah.

Guess that's when
I was wearing them.

Yeah, we were probably in high
school around the same time,

right?

Probably.

What a strange thought.

Anyway, they should
be in here helping us.

Did you see Patrice
hand me his plate?

Don't get me wrong.

I like him.

But he's a little
immature, right?

Yes.

Yeah.

He's one of the few people
who hasn't changed at all.

I'm sure it must be
somewhat overwhelming for you.

All of this.

It's OK.

Have you thought about what
you wanted to do with your life

now that you're back?

Not really.

Travel, maybe.

Here on Earth, I mean.

Just go out and get lost.

I've never really been anywhere.

New Orleans once, with my mom.

Well, you really shouldn't
waste such a great opportunity.

Most people don't get to see how
everybody they know turned out.

You can learn from
their mistakes.

Make all the right decisions.

When I was your age, I
knew exactly what I wanted.

I knew the college I
needed to get into,

the internships that
would help my resume,

the law firm to
launch my career.

I had a plan, and I executed it.

Sounds fun.

If you want to
amount to anything,

you need to have a plan.

What am I saying?

I remember when I was your age,
in one ear and out the other.

I'm sure you'll figure it out.

I'm sure I will.

That is quite a dress.

Thanks, I wasn't sure--

But remember, with
blush, less is more.

Otherwise, it looks like
you're trying too hard.

I don't need your charity.

Hank, come on.

Please.

Patrice could use the help.

Because it worked out
so well the last time

a Lambert tried to help me.

Jack, do you
still paddleboard?

What?

Your old gear
is in the closet.

You?

Paddleboarding?

Yeah, well, you know.

It's been a while, but--

I am learning all sorts
of things about you.

We should do it again.

I don't think so.

I can't even imagine it.

You're, like, the least
coordinated person I know.

Hey.

I'd like to see you
in that wet suit again.

So would I.

Yeah, you would
like to see it.

I wear it like a second skin.

It's beautiful.

Then it's a plan.

Tomorrow I have the day off.

Oh.

Sure, yeah.
Sure.

Why not?

Yeah.

Tomorrow.

Cool.

- I'm not ovulating.

That was nice.

Really?

- Yeah.

I think she's sweet.

Why didn't you tell me you
saw her in the grocery store?

I thought I was going crazy.

Just wanted to wait until
I talked to Patrice.

That must be really strange.

She's obviously still
in love with you.

No, she's just a kid.

When you're that age, you feel
different one week to the next.

You know what I mean.

Honestly, I feel bad for her.

She'll get over it.

You're a good man.

Oh, did you not want to?

Do you?

Well, I know you're
not ovulating, but--

I-- we can.

Oh, only if you want to.

Oh, yeah, I got this.

Looking amazing, honey!

Ah, thank you.

You're welcome.

You must be so proud.

Yeah.

He's trying, anyway.

Was he ever any good?

Oh yeah.

When he was 15, everybody
thought he was the shit.

Really?

No.

He's always been awful.

He just owned all the stuff.

We used to lay the equipment
all out on the beach

and pretend to be busy with
all the pretty girls walked by.

Did that ever work?

Sometimes, but Jack met
Elise, and I was left alone

with all the pretty girls.

Looks like nothing's changed.

Woo-hoo-hoo.

- And you're
still terrible at this.

- Hey.

It's been a while.

- How long?

Well, the last
time was with you.

What?

Yeah.

I haven't been back
here in 20 years.

What about your dad?

Didn't you ever visit?

No.

Stopped talking to
him a long time ago.

Occasional messages,
birthday card, whatever.

But we kind of
had a falling out.

Because of what he did to us?

- There were other
issues, but yeah.

I was pretty furious.

I asked him to help
your dad with a job.

The next thing I
know, you're gone.

Forever.

Yeah, Hank didn't
have to take it.

I hate them both.

- Don't.

Now that my dad's gone, I
wish I hadn't cut him out.

He was just doing
the best he could.

It seemed like the end of
the world to me, you know.

But the way he saw it, your
family got an opportunity,

and I was just a teenager.

I'd get over you.

And are you?

Over me?

I never imagined
Jack as a governor.

He's got a lot of work to
get there, but you'll see it.

Seems like a pretty big
decision to make so quickly.

Y'all just got here.

Ah, it'll be good to
get back out there,

not dwell on the past.

Keep moving forward until
you get what you want.

And that's what he wants?

It's what we both want?

It seemed to me
like he wants a break.

Wonder what they're
talking about.

Don't you have
some work to do?

That is not what
I'm trying to say.

It can't be both ways.

Look, what happened
was a meaningful--

it was the most meaningful.

It actually changed
me in a lot of ways.

And so I can still feel
the impact of that summer.

In that respect, I'm not
over any of it at all.

I can't believe
you grew up to be

this bullshit politician, Jack.

The point is,
I had to grow up.

I got married.

I had to move on.

Yeah, so you got over me.

Just say it.

You complain about
talking to a politician?

I forgot what it's like
talking to a teenager.

How long did it take?

What?

How long?

Honestly, Elise, I don't know.

A year?

I'm-- OK, it was
more than a year.

Elise, come on!

Seriously?

Come up.

It was way more than a year.

I-- I didn't mean it.

Elise!
Come up--

Jesus Christ.

You scared the shit out of me.

How long was I underwater?

What?

How long was I underwater?

I don't know.

30 seconds?

30 seconds.

Good.

Now you know.

That's how long it took
me to get over you.

Here.

I got it.

Hey, I'm sorry.

OK?

Friends?

Whatever.

ROGER
How do I look?

Do I look good?

Perfect on our end.

ROGER
OK, listen, this

is what's called camera ready.

This is what it looks like.

I want you to soak it in.

I'm wearing a shit
ton of makeup,

but I still look like
I could kick your ass.

This is what I need you
to look like tomorrow.

Uh, what are
you talking about?

What I'm talking about is your
first interview as a candidate.

You like that?

Roger, I haven't
made a decision yet.

We're not going
to actually declare.

This is just to test the waters.

You knew about this?

ROGER Buddy, there

was a last-minute cancellation.

Karen Keeley really
wanted to talk to you.

That show does not ask twice.

It's just such short notice.

Well, so it was
my last divorce,

but that turned
out to be a gift.

You need to seize the moment.

I want you to carpe scrotum.

The kids love you right now.

Right, Mags?

People need to
know you're still

out there and not defeated.

You don't have to declare yet.

You can back out if
you still want to.

ROGER Yeah.

I mean, if you want to
back out, you still can.

What this is, though,
is maybe an opportunity

to shore up that youth vote
with a little focus on family

values for the blue hairs.

Maggie's got all
the talking points.

Listen to me, Jack.

I know, I'm hilarious.

But right now I'm being serious.

I've done this for a decade.

I've only lost once, and
I'm not going to lose twice.

That Senate thing?

That was an appetizer.

We're going to carpe scrotum.

Carpe.

Scrotum.

I thought we were
taking a time out.

Why are we jumping back
into this so quickly?

It's what we have to do.

Well, I thought I might
go back into community

organizing for a while.

Maybe set up a nonprofit again.

We're in debt
from the campaign.

We need to move this house.

We need to pick our
next steps carefully.

Life doesn't stop because
you want to take a break.

Honey, after all
we've worked for,

this is a real second chance.

What are you guys doing here?

Bailing you out, man.

We're going dancing.

I can't.

I gotta prep for this interview.

See?

I told you, Patrice.

He's gonna get in trouble.

I'm gonna get in trouble.

All right, hold on.

Just meet me on the
side of the house.

But be quiet.

Shut up.

Let's go.

ID.

It says you're 38.

Yeah, don't remind me.

In a couple of
years, the big 4-0.

Whatever.

Go on in.

This place hasn't
changed much.

What?

This place hasn't
changed much!

This must bring back
some memories, right?

What?

He said this place
brings back memories!

I don't remember
it being so loud!

What?

I said, it's really loud!

Jack Lambert?

Yeah.

It is Jack Lambert!

Fuck yeah!

This is the dude who
screamed at kids!

What?

You're my hero, man.

I hate kids!

Hey, take a picture.

Oh, no, we don't have to--

OK.

Is this your daughter?

No, I-- I'm his friend.

Cool.

We should all party.

I'm Terry.

That's my girl Celine.

Yeah.

I'm going to go ahead
and get another drink.

No, no, no, I got this one.

Next round's on me.

Great to meet you, Terry.

Elise, do you wanna--

Yeah.

Uh, yeah!

Two Jack and Cokes for us!

You like to party, man?

I think I used to
babysit that guy.

You used to what?

Hey, you OK?

I know this song.

What about the drinks?

Who cares!

--the summer,
the light we grew up with.

We'll forget the past, dear,
and learn to live for this.

We'll learn to live for this.

Oh, oh.

I can't believe
you've never seen it!

Stop being a jerk and show me.

Oh.

All right, but listen.

Keep-- just keep in mind
this was, like, my--

it was, like, my third
stump speech of the day.

Stump speech?

Yeah, that's the
technical term.

JACK Yeah!

Are we gonna fight
for our schools?

CROWD Yeah!

JACK Are we

gonna let them hear our voices?

CROWD Yeah!

Are we gonna win
this race for our kids?

Fuck yeah!

I just got caught
up in the moment.

I don't know, I'm such an idiot.

No, it's-- it's great.

I mean, that's totally you.

That's the Jack I know.

- Jack!

Hey, where you been, man?

Oh man, this guy
Terry is awesome.

He-- he has invited us to a
party to watch some fireworks.

Oh man, I don't know.

Come on, Jack.

Get caught in the moment.

"Fuck yeah," right?

All right.

Fuck yeah.

Let's go.
- Yes!

Ooh!

Don't worry about that.

There's gonna be
some drunk-ass ants.

- I mean, if you
want to get the job,

you gotta do the bullshit.

And that goes for everything,
not just politics.

You'll see.

You sound like
a bitter old man.

There's a
reason people get that way.

I mean, if I knew
then what I know now--

Oh, I'm-- I'm good, thank you.

Oh, OK.

All right.

No thanks.

Makes me dizzy.

OK.

Jack Lambert!

Fuck yeah!

Yep, thank you.

Oh my god, why did
you let me do that?

I'm not the boss of you.

That's your wife's job.

Hey, words hurt.

You know what you were
telling me a few months ago?

No, I do not.

That's weird.

You were saying,
Elise, I never

want to lie about who I am.

I never said that.

You did.

you said your parents lied to
each other about who they were,

and that's why they were
so miserable and split up.

It was so clear to you.

You know what?

Actually, I do
remember saying that.

We were driving around.

What do you want to do?

I don't know, what
do you want to do?

I don't know.

Forever, just all night.

Driving, talking.

Nothing to do.

Now there's
always something to do.

You said to me--

I remember you said,
"You can try to be what

other people want you to be.

But if you lie about who
you are, it won't matter."

Well, you know,
I was saying all

that because I wanted
to grow my hair long

and my dad wouldn't let me.

Yeah, you should have.

Oh, are you kidding?

As soon as I got
to college, fwoomp.

You must have looked pretty.

Pretty?

I looked gorgeous.

I had this huge mane of hair
that would flow in the wind

as I rode my bike down the quad.

It was great.

And I'd sit in my dorm room at
night in front of the mirror

and brush it, like, 100 times.

You see, I had the time
to do those kind of things

because when you look
like you just escaped

from medieval prison,
you don't get a lot

of dates, strangely enough.

I'm sure you did just fine.

Yeah.

You know, the thing I
said out on the lake

about it taking only a year?

Well, college was, uh, only.

- Guys.

Oh, yes, pot.

It's time.

- 5, 4, 3, 2, 1!

What is that?

Hm?

Oh, right.

This is how we do fireworks now.

It's beautiful.

It's actually an
artificial meteor shower.

There's a satellite up
there that just shoots

stuff into the atmosphere.

Coolest part is
that it's so quiet.

Well, right now it isn't.

Right, sorry.

It is beautiful.

You want to walk?

Yeah.

Yeah, let's do it.

Forgot about that part
where you stand up.

- It's weird.

I've only been back
for a little while,

but I've managed to meet up
with some of my old friends,

and they all say
the same things.

You'll see.

You'll learn.

It's sad.

Sad?

Everyone looks
tired, distracted.

Like they had a dream and
they lost it, even if they

never really had one to lose.

Well, Elise,
people have children.

They have responsibilities.

It's not that.

They just seem content
to be disappointed.

Well, as you get older,
disappointments add up

and you start to
expect more of it.

Yeah, but don't
you wish you would

have kept that
excitement for life

that you had when
you were younger?

It's easier to be excited
when it's all in front of you.

You should be
even more passionate

about life because
there's less of it left.

Just like the rest of
them, you used to be cool.

And now you're all
boring and jaded.

Elise, I don't
mean to be mean,

but you hardly know me now.

I know you.

I can see what's
missing, anyway.

When's the last time
you really laughed?

Tonight.

And before that?

I don't know, I
laugh all the time.

I love comedy.

"I love comedy."

What a stupid thing to say.

Like that makes you unique.

Like there are people
running around all over.

"Stop all this comedy.

I don't like it one bit."

Well, you'd be
surprised about that.

Stop.

Stop talking to me
like I'm this naive

kid who doesn't know anything.

Well, I'm a lot older
than you know, Elise.

Well, I don't care!

Your age doesn't matter.

I only care if you're
you or not you.

I didn't mean to upset you.

I missed 20 years.

I'll never get that time back.

You're 18.

You got your whole
life ahead of you.

That's not what I meant.

Everybody talks
about me like I'm

this teenager trapped in time.

But really, I feel
like an old lady.

How so?

You'll probably
think it's silly.

No, I won't.

Tell me.

I don't know who
the latest bands are.

Most things are confusing.

I mean, an artificial
meteor shower?

If you hadn't been
here, I would have

thought we were under attack.

You'll learn.

You'll catch up.

You got to see things
change, bit by bit.

But for me, everything-- poof.

Totally different.

I can't relate to
people my age because we

have nothing in common.

I can't relate to people I
used to know because they

all think I'm a child.

It's so confusing.

Elise.

And so much--

so much looks the same.

The town, the lake.

My memories of everything are
so vivid that even a storefront

that's changed color or a
street that's been renamed

remind me that I'm out of place.

Then there's my dad.

He's sick.

Really sick.

And he's not taking
care of himself.

It's all on me.

Nothing is like it was.

I'm so sorry.

It's not your
fault you got older.

I get it.

It's just hard sometimes.

I didn't realize how much
everything would change,

and how little I'd fit in.

Not everything's changed.

All these years, this
has been my lucky coin.

Never even told
anybody about it.

I just kept it close.

Through everything.

I love you.

God.

I can't.

I can't do this.

- I'm sorry.
- No, no, no.

I'm sorry.

I'm drunk, and I'm
stoned, and I'm--

I'm way too old.

I'm 18.

Can't do this.

I'm married.

We can never do this.

I-- I just have to go.

I have to go.

Hey.

Just going to bed.

Hey, hey.

Everything all right?

Yeah, I'm fine.

I'm just tired.

Goodnight, Dad.

Night.

I smell booze.

Shh.

I'm ovulating.

I don't care.

- Stay on message.

Thank you.

- And we're back
with guest Jack Lambert,

former Congressman and
recent Senate candidate,

known for his unique passion.

Thank you for joining
us, Congressman.

Well, thank you, Karen, for
putting that so delicately.

But I think everyone knows
what you're referring to.

- The swearing incident.

A lot of folks are saying that's
what cost you the election.

It looked like it was all
yours just the week before.

Well, I think the
election went the way

it did for a number of reasons.

But yes, it had an impact.

And I'll just say
now what I said then.

What I did was inappropriate.

And I'm truly sorry
to those I offended.

You're sorry?

Absolutely.

It was out of character
for me, Karen.

But I can assure you it came
from a place of true passion

for education and
children's issues.

See, my wife Maggie and I,
like so many other people

across our great state,
are trying to start

a family of our own right now.

And we want to be sure we
provide the Absolute best

for every child's future.

And that's what
we wanted to talk

about in this interview, but--

well, let me just show
you this footage that's

been making the rounds today.

This is a video
shot by an attendee

of an out-of-control
party just last night.

Would you care to explain to our
viewers what we're seeing here?

Uh.

Well, that's--
We're on vacation.

- You don't seem too
sorry about your behavior

in that video, Mr. Lambert.

And many are saying you now
intend to run for governor.

Is this the kind of loose
cannon candidate we can expect?

No, I haven't declared yet,
and that's all out of context.

So you admit you
are considering

a run in spite of these antics?

Yes, Karen.

I'm definitely considering
a run for governor.

But tell me something.

Is this really news
you're covering right now?

Man on vacation goes to party?

The kids in that video are
having fun at my expense.

I was having fun with them.

So what?

None of it has to do with my
qualifications for office.

Well, some say it does.

And who are those
people, Karen?

The pundits who do the rounds
on circus shows like this?

Well, I don't think
that's a fair assessment.

But judging a person's worth
on a snippet of video is fair?

Well, if it's relevant--

Let me lay it out there for
you and the rest of the media

so you can stop wasting
time reporting on it.

I'm a human being.

I use bad language when I
get worked up sometimes.

Like most people, I can get
caught up in the moment.

Is that such a bad thing?

Now, you asked me what kind
of candidate you can expect.

I say, expect a human being.

If you want passionless
perfection, do what Norway did

and elect an artificial
intelligence.

OK.

- I believe in an
America that excels because

of the passion and
humanity of its people

and its representatives.

When you start holding
politicians to a standard so

ridiculous that
they become robots,

people will go the
other direction

and elect the biggest
idiot they can find.

So I'm done lying
about who I am.

I think it's time for more
honesty in this world.

Thank you.

Oh, and for the sake of
honesty, I'm hung over his shit.

- Strong words from loose
cannon candidate Jack Lambert.

Looks like he went
a little off script,

and it all happened right
here on Karen Keeley Live.

What was that?

- I just--

What happened to
staying on message?

All the work we've done, and you
just throw it away like that?

I didn't want to
do this interview.

You guys pushed me into it.

Oh, I'm so sorry, Jack.

I'm sorry you had
to do something

you didn't want to do.

You sound like a
fucking teenager.

Maggie!

What the hell was
that video, huh?

That's what you were doing last
night while I was sleeping?

Sneaking out with
your girlfriend?

It's not like that.

You're so fucking cliche.

Middle-age guy suddenly
decides he needs

to screw a girl half his age.

Oh, do you feel
like a big man now?

Nothing happened.

You were thinking
about her, though.

Last night.
- What?

No.

I--

I'm not an idiot, Jack.

Long time ago, I
asked you why you

carry that stupid coin around.

And you told me it was
just a good luck charm.

Do you have any idea what it
was like to sit next to you

at that dinner and hear
her tell that story?

To know that all these years--

all these years.

And to have to watch you
make doe eyes at this child.

Hey, hold on.

It's not a normal situation.

I know that I'm not
everything you wanted.

Maggie.

I'm not spontaneous.

I'm not-- I'm not carefree.

But I have built
a life with you.

I have tried so hard to be
everything that you needed.

And I know I push you sometimes.

All I ever wanted was
for you to love me.

I do, Maggie.

I do love you.

I just-- just needed
to go out for a night.

I just needed a break.

From me.

No.

No.

Just from everything.

Get the fuck out of here.

Maggie, come on.

Please, Jack.

Just go.

Go.

Oof.

You look like shit, man.

I'm telling you, a little
rum and Coke in the morning

always does the trick.

Look at me.

Let's get that drink now.

Sure.

Oh shit, man.

You gonna cry?

Don't you cry in my truck, Jack.

You know how hard it
is to get the smell

of tears out of leather?

Oh my god, it lives.

I screwed up, man.

Really screwed up.

I know.

I walked Elise home.

Don't you say I
didn't tell you, man.

Should've left it alone.

The past is behind
you, you know?

You try to relive it,
it's never gonna work out.

You're a real fucking
instigator, you know that?

If you feel that way, why did
you come get me last night?

Well, forgive me
for wanting to spend

some time with an old
friend I never see anymore.

I thought I had myself
convinced, you know?

That it was an infatuation.

It's puppy love.

I've grown up.

I've changed.

And I have changed.

I've changed a lot.

But I still love her, man.

What the fuck.

Hey, pull over for a second.

It's the same bad movie.

You wanna see it?

Nah, something
tells me it doesn't

hold up to the original.

Nothing ever does.

Let's go get that drink.

Yeah.

You're kidding me.

You're kidding me!

Roger, I'm gonna have
to call you back.

Five minutes.

- Hello?

Hi there.

What can I do for you?

Hi.

I was just looking for my dad.

Oh, that's who
you're looking for?

I thought that maybe he--

I think I saw him out back.

Come on, I'll walk you there.

Oh, I don't want
to bother you.

No, I insist.

You know, I didn't really
get it at first, this place.

More of a city girl.

I love New York.

Don't you love New York?

I've never been.

That's
right, I forgot.

Well, you should go.

You should go somewhere, anyway.

Travel.

That's what you
want to do, right?

Yeah.

Hm.

Unfortunately, we are
going to be traveling

sooner than we thought.

Things are heating up
for Jack back home.

I'm genuinely gonna
miss this place.

Whoever buys it is
going to be very lucky.

You're selling the house?

Of course.

That's why we're fixing it up.

I just thought--

to make it nice.

Right.

So it sells.

I guess I thought Jack
would have told you.

You were with him
last night, right?

With Patrice.

Lots of people.

Thank you, by the way.

He really needed to
blow off some steam.

Lord knows I can
be kind of a drag.

The last couple of years
have been stressful.

The campaign can really
wear on our relationship.

Last night, Jack was
like a kid again.

Couldn't get enough.

I really needed it too.

When are you trying
for a baby, things

can get a little mechanical.

Who knows?

Maybe last night was the night.

So thank you for that.

I'll leave you to it.

Oh.

This?

It's much, much better.

He can't tell you're
trying at all.

Have you seen Hank?

Uh, Patrice let him go early.

He wasn't looking too good.

It'll all blow over, man

You don't know Maggie.

Even if we make up,
in 15 years, she's

going to make some crack. oh,
an antique gumball machine.

Have any coins?

I love Maggie.

I do.

But if I'm being honest, it felt
incredible in that interview

today to say what
I wanted to say.

Maggie's-- I always
feel like she's looking

at me imagining someone else.

Oof.

I mean, that's-- that's
kind of messed up, man.

Look, I know-- I
know I've been giving

you a hard time and all that.

But look, if you want to be
with Elise, just do it, man.

Who cares you look like
some creepy old dude?

You can't worry about that shit.

I'm not worried
about that, thank you.

When Elise and I
were dating, she

would write me these letters.

Longhand.

Ooh.

Yeah, that's why I
never told you about it,

because you'd make fun of me.

Well.

She'd slip one in my
pocket when we were together.

I wasn't supposed to
read it till I got home.

Made saying goodbye easier.

It was always about the stuff
we were going to do next time we

hung out, you know?

Dumb stuff we were
never going to do.

Robbing banks.

Joining a dance crew.

Well, you might do that one.

After she was gone, I took all
the letters and I burned them.

I had a little funeral
in the backyard

because there weren't going
to be any more next times.

And now, it's like I heard
the beginning of a song,

and it's been stuck
in my head forever.

And I-- I just have
to hear the rest of it

or it'll never go away.

Wait.

Are you writing another
damn poem right now?

Sorry, I'm just--

No, no, man.

I get it, man.

Hey, when I see you,
it's like we pick

up right where we left off.

You know, like the last 20
years just went away for a bit.

You know, I like that feeling.

But if you commit to Elise?

it's not picking up
where you left off.

You gotta blow everything
up and start over.

I mean, do you
even like politics?

I used to love it.

We had fun.

We were a team.

And I really want to
help people, I do.

I'm good at it.

But somewhere along
the way, it just

became more about playing a part
and getting to the next level.

Well, what I'm
saying is, could

you just walk away from it?

I don't know.

I built this whole life.

And to see how Maggie
looked at me today, I just--

I can't be that person.

We've gone through
too much together.

I can't blow it up.

It would have been
great to be with Elise,

but I think we're
both just going

to have to accept the fact that
that ship has literally sailed.

I mean, you can still
keep her in your life.

I don't think that's going
to be good for either of us.

So this is the end of
the song, right here.

Don't make fun of me.

I'm not!

I mean, you're not
happy right now, man.

Then what's going
to change, huh?

Well, I'm going to
apologize for what I did.

OK.

But if it's going to go
any further, if that's even

a possibility at this
point, it has to be based

on who I was in that interview.

OK, well, you know, I
hope you can pull that off.

It's my marriage, man.

I know.

But you got to remember,
all else fails,

there's always the
nuclear option.

All right.

Thanks, man.

I will, uh, let you know.

Hey, be careful driving home.

Hi.

Hi.

Are you leaving?

We need to talk.

No, no, no.

I gotta-- I gotta
say something first.

Please.

I was wrong.

OK?

To do what I did.

The party, and--

I know how hard you work for me.

For us.

And I was wrong.

Thank you.

But Jack--

No-- hold on.

There's more.

Did Elise come by today?

She did.

OK.

I don't know what
she said, but I just

want to say that I am
committed to fix this and get

back in the game for us.

I swear it.

OK.

OK?

OK!

Really?

That's it?

Jack.

You're a hit.

What?

The interview.

It went viral.

The response is
overwhelmingly positive.

You just became
the front runner.

Are you kidding?

No.

Roger said they're talking
about you as keynote next year,

win or lose.

This is huge.

We've got to get
back right away.

Louise is going to
oversee everything here,

and Roger's booking us
tickets for tomorrow.

Wait.

So you're not mad at me anymore?

I was mad.

But I've cooled off.

I get it.

You're only a
human being, right?

Gotta put that on a T-shirt.

Hi.

I'm leaving today.

I just-- I just
wanted to say goodbye.

- Who's out there?

- Elise, I was
wrong to do what I did.

I got caught up and
wasn't thinking.

I know.

You went home to her.

I don't know what to say.

I wish we'd been given a chance.

What does that mean?

It means, I wish your father
hadn't decided to leave.

And I wish my father
hadn't made it happen.

I wish you'd stayed, and
we'd been given a chance.

We have been given a chance.

I came back.

No, this-- this was random.

And crazy.

This wasn't supposed to happen.

I've had this whole life you
don't know anything about it.

So you'll have new
things to tell me

about when we talk all night.

I don't love you.

That's not true.

- And you don't love me.

You love me from a moment
in time 20 years ago.

This is real, Jack.

This is fate.

I mean, you came
back, and I came here.

We've been given
a second chance--

No, no.

The only chance we've been
given is-- is a chance

to hurt each other again.

And I'm sorry.

I am sorry if I led you on.

But this isn't fate.

OK?

There's no such thing.

You're right, there isn't.

I rigged the lottery.

What?

When we got to the colonies
and they said they were going

to send some of us back,
I switched with someone

who wanted to stay.

And I knew you would be older.

But I took the chance
because nothing could stop

me from coming back to you.

I mean, if you hadn't
been here, I would have

found you wherever you were.

But I see now that I was
thinking like a child.

So I guess I am growing up.

Jack, thank you for that.

Elise, don't--
Don't.

Hold--
- Let me go.

Hey, hey, hey!

I-- Hank, come on.

I just want to talk to her.

Slimy son of a...

- Dad!

You've brought us
nothing but grief!

You stay the hell
away from my daughter.

I'm sorry!

I'm sorry.

- I swear I didn't
mean to mess things up.

It's OK, Dad.

It's OK.

Louise, you have the keys?

Yes.
Safe travels.

We'll be in touch.

Thank you.

Bye, Jack.

Bye, Louise.

Hey.

You coming?

Yeah.

ROGER
Listen, buddy,

I really need you to hit
the section on the subsidies

for the colony companies, OK?

- OK, yeah.

But what happened all
the stuff I had in here

about children's rights?

That was the core of my speech!

Listen, we are seriously in
bed with these guys right now.

This is not the time for that.

We need to focus on the
whole romantic space thing.

Blue collar jobs.

The fact that your dad was
a pioneer in the industry.

The same shit that
we've been selling

for the last six months.

OK?

Look, man, you nail this,
the nomination's yours.

Then we've got the
governor's mansion.

Maybe in a few years, we
hear the pitter-patter of

little feet in the White House.

Still
working on it, Roger.

- Coffee, Jack?

No, no.

Stains the teeth.

Take I look at this.

Isn't that adorable?

So retro.

You'll love as.

Heck yeah!

- Call for
you, Mrs. Lambert.

ROGER
That's hilarious, right?

I got one too.

Check it out.

Oh, hey.

Jack, buddy.

How are you, man?

Wow, are you
anatomically correct?

- Heck yeah!

ROGER I
don't believe you dude.

That's it.
Show me.

- Is everything OK?
- Yeah.

Yeah, I'm fine.

I just-- I need some air.

ROGER Come here.

Wow.

- There you are.

I have great news.

What's this?

Louise found a buyer.

Full asking price.

All you have to do is sign.

I can't do this.

Oh.

I'm sorry.

Your head's in the speech.
We can do this tomorrow.

No.

I mean, I can't do any of this.

I don't understand.

All of this is wrong.

This isn't me.

I don't want to sell the house.

I don't want to
make this speech.

I don't want to hear
the pitter-patter

of feet in the White House.

Oh my god.

Roger was just kidding.

He's always got his
mind on the next thing.

Fuck Roger.

I never even met
that guy in person.

Is he even real?

Help me out here, Jack.

What's going on?

I don't want to
go back in there.

OK.

I get it.

This is a big moment.

You don't get it, Maggie.

Then help me, Jack.

Because there's a huge crowd
in there waiting for you.

I thought I wanted this.

Not like this.

And I should-- I should
have said something.

I should have spoken up sooner.

But ever since we got
back, I've been thinking--

About that girl?

We had problems before Elise
even came into the picture.

We love each other,
Maggie, but come on.

We're not in love
with each other is--

I don't know when it happened.

But whatever we had in
the beginning is gone.

It's just work now.

This is just a
business partnership.

I know I'm not
all things to you.

Believe me, you're not
all things to me either.

Not by a long shot.

Jack, when I was young, I had
different expectations too.

Why didn't you
get what you wanted?

We met at the right time.

We fell in love.

I understand that things change.

Some things, yeah.

But-- well, this?

It wouldn't be fair to
you to keep pretending

that I'm someone I'm not.

This is it?

Isn't it?

Yes?

Hi.

I was, uh, looking for Elise.

I'm sorry, there's
no Elise here.

Oh.

She used to live here
with her father, Hank.

- Oh, Hank.

Yeah.

Poor guy.

He passed away a few months ago.

Oh, I'm sorry, you didn't know?

No, I didn't.

OK.

Well, uh, thank you.

- She moved on, man.

Money finally came through and
she moved out to New Orleans.

I envy you, man.

Got your own business.

You're your own boss.

You somehow manage to stay
free of all the bullshit.

Free?

Shit.

Come on, man, we
all got problems.

You know that.

And if we're being
honest, Jack, it's

just like when we were young.

You show up, make a big old
mess, and then you just leave.

You're right.

I'm sorry.

It's OK.

It's what we expect from you.

Are you gonna tell me
where she is in New Orleans?

I'll drive
you there tomorrow.

Oh, you don't have
to do that, man.

Thank you.

Over there.

Good luck.

Thank you.

- Thank you.

Hope to see you again.

Hey!

What are you doing here?

I told you I'd stop by.

Thanks.

And I, uh, have
something for you.

What's this?

JACK Dear Elise.

You probably don't
want to see me again,

but I hope you'll
read these words

and consider them carefully.

If I could take back the
things I said to you, I would.

I was wrong about so
much, and you were right.

I haven't been honest about
who I am for a long time.

I wanted to run and tell
you then to convince you

to be with me again,
but then I realized

I was right about one thing.

You need to live your life.

You can only be young once.

And it's not fair for me to
show up and take that from you.

So go out and live.

Travel.

Meet people.

Discover yourself.

You may think you
already know who you are,

but I learned it
takes getting a little

lost to really know for sure.

I want you to know I've
left it all behind.

My wife, my career, all of it.

Just tell them
whatever you have to.

Listen, Roger-- no, no,
no, I want to talk to you.

Roger, I need you to
pull some strings for me.

You sure you want to do this?

Positive.

I mean, it's
pretty crazy, man.

Listen, just make
sure she gets this.

JACK
I'm going on a trip.

I'm taking a chance,
just like you did.

I'm hoping that when something
is true, it stays true forever.

By the time you read this,
I'll be boarding a colony ship.

Five years out, five years
back, frozen in time.

Not as long as your trip,
but it's all I could get.

And probably as
long as I can wait.

I don't expect
anything from you.

You might find
happiness elsewhere.

Part of me hopes that you do.

But I want you to
know that I love you.

I've loved you since I met you.

I will always love you.

If I'm lucky and you feel the
same way 10 years from today,

I'll be waiting for you at
the theater where we met.

Until then, you'll
be in my dreams.

Jack.
