Original subtitles

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 your 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, will only get one chance...at all of this.

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 this 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 want to 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 want to 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 makes up something a lot larger than we can comprehend, if we take time

into the equation, we could be making up the dirt on the bottom of a universal

sized elephant that that is taking one step in our galaxy's lifetime.

Very interesting Dennis, and is this your truth?

It just seems to make sense to me,

we used to think that inside an atom was a couple of nuclei

now we've discovered an entire cosmos, that this whole system itself resembles

the interior rotation of an atom anyway science has to play a part in all this.

Take your pants off and prove it!

Please! Ladies and gentlemen please

anyone else, Aidan, what do you think?

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?

Belief and reality or two very different things.

Well what about when you die?

When I die?

All of us.

Let me ask you...

Jennifer, what happens when you die? - Heaven...or hell!

Dennis?

That Universal sized elephant just keeps on walking.

Please Aidan?

We've all been dead a lot longer than we've been alive.

Down to business, ladies and gentlemen please take out your papers, officially

exclusively and mathematically this is your final philosophy exam for the term,

the semester, 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?

You have to listen to me very carefully!

Don't go there Heathscape Motel!

What is that supposed to mean?

Don't go there!

Stay away!

Wait, wait a minute!

- So uh Sarah - Yeah what about her?

She's got it going on!

She cute, she's chubby! Are you going to talk to her for me?

Are you okay?

I've been running around just to find something.

Did you just say that she's chubby

and that's what you like about her?

I went to get my bike after the exam someone came up to me and it was me!

Like my clothes, my face, my voice, everything! At first I thought it was a joke

but then when I actually!

Are you on drugs?

He said don't go to the Heathscape Motel!

What? Don't go to the Heathscape Motel? What's going on down there?

I don't know.

- Hello Gran. - I've seen you before.

Yes I know Gran.

(phone rings)

Hello, yeah who else. Middle name, it's South, look man I gotta go.

How was your exam?

Yeah fine!

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...

does our family have any history of mental illness, depression and 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's a history of cancer and

baldness too, in the men.

What does Lauren think?

Oh nothing.

When are you two going to get married?

I don't know Grandma, soon maybe.

I want Great-Grandchildren and I want to be at the wedding, but not in that order

Okay, so nothing brain-related, I just want to make sure it's not all just in

my head.

Isn't everything just in your head?

Will you read to me?

Yes sure, what shall we read?

The four Swan's. Where do we start?

I'm at the beginning.

It's a good place.

Can I help you? Aidan, what are you doing here?

Sorry I didn't know you worked here. How's things?

Things are good.

How has your shift gone?

It's fine, good.

Are you here for something?

This is gonna sound strange...

Have I been here before?

I don't know I shouldn't you know that?

I know it sounds weird,

have you seen me here before somebody

that looks a lot like me?

I don't I think so

- Is everything all right here? - Yeah it's fine.

And he said don't go to the Heathscape Motel...and here I am.

Yeah that's an interesting story and I don't know whether I should really

believe a word of it.

But 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, no I do things and and I'm doing a painting course painting.

Really finely!

- And how's your grandma - She's okay we had to put her in a home

pretty much just after we broke up.

(crash sound)

It's been good to see you again Lauren

Good to see you too AIdan.

You still live around here?

No I moved.

Do you want a lift?

- Aidan. - Yeah.

I think I should tell you something

something I should have told you a while ago.

Well I'm just gonna say it!

Watch out!

(car crash sounds)

There's no signs of concussion or anything, and he's gonna be sore for a

couple of days but other than that he's gonna be absolutely fine.

Are you feeling okay?

What happened?

You're in a car accident.

It was pretty bad and and the the doctor called your Grandmother and then they

called me and and then I called Nick and and we've been here for a while.

He said that you may have hit your head they think that maybe

you've hit your head so to ask you if you need head hurts?

Do you want some water?! Sit back sit back relax it's okay!

Look the Doctor will be here any minute oh don't sit up just relax it's fine!

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 I'll be meeting with you tomorrow.

So I'm being charged with something?

Well the family have stated that like to

press charges, given the circumstances of your past relationship with the deceased

having a hard time understanding what she was doing in the car with you.

I was just gonna drive her home!

You don't have to explain to us.

Wait until your lawyers present, just the way things 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 you could do leave here you can make things a lot worse you

Understand?

Yeah.

Peanut-butter and Russian currency, the Atlantic Ocean and a melted rollerblade.

It's a great game, really simple, you think of two things -

anything's, 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.

One day I'll find someone to actually play with. You in some trouble I see?

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 got you into this mess!

What do you know about that?

I could tell you but

you're gonna figure it out for yourself no matter what I say. I can give you a

hint, go to the Heathscape 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!

What for?

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!

(nurses chatting)

The funeral is going to be one day next week, I'm not sure when but I'll let you

know when we've got some more details and can you hang on for a moment I've got

someone out here, excuse me can I help you, I have to call you back, good.

Yes sir how can I help you?

I just want to get a room.

Fine yes we've got got rooms we'll go to room 11 and just for yourself one night?

That's fine.

How you gonna pay for that?

Okay thank you.

Okay thank you very much, good.

It was late this afternoon when a car swerved off Bethia road and hit this

power pole behind me, the passenger died on sight while the driver was taken to

hospital with minimal injuries. It is not yet known what caused the car to lose

control, but police are pushing forward for a full investigation!

- Hey. get out of my dome! - Hey man it's me!

Get out, or I'll stab you out!

Aidan, I read your paper you really outdid

yourself this time! You know it's minds like

yours that, well you really think outside the box, a couple colleagues of mine we

meet every Wednesday to talk about science related issues and...

(crash sounds)

Just fine, talk to her for a longer than 60 seconds since you still

informs you that a golf-ball drowned - my Grandfather yeah I do remember that.

I've never actually told her that we broke up.

After all this time?

- Yeah. - That's a bit strange isn't it?

It would've killed her, she still got that photo that you gave her for her birthday of us.

She loves you. She still loves you.

I miss your Grandma.

She called me up the other week and she said that she wanted to go bowling

I say he's serious, we had the ambulance was on standby, she was in her

slippers and gown, bowled a few balls with a slide mechanism thing, she had fun!

- That's cute hmm I love bowling. - You remember that time we...

- went bowling! (together).

Can I get an amublance please, room 41 Heathscape Motel.

I know it was really weird he was talking about this room 41 with him a

motel room that has a black hole but that leads to yesterday, and something

about like using a car accident with Lauren, and she died and but he was the reason that

she died and he's gonna never go back in time or something

Oh hey champ how was your nap?

- You guys don't believe me do you? - Come on yeah you're actually joking?!

- Call my phone? - Why did you leave it?

No I'm trying to

prove a point

Hello who? Aidan? This is you Aidan?

That's the other Aidan, who hasn't been through this yet.

If this is Aidan, what's my brothers middle name?

Ah, it's south, look man I gotta go!

Hello? Who, he hung up, you hung up?

C'mon 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 all right this is just getting really weird

Aidan, look I know that you had problems getting over Lauren and I understand

that really 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, hey I've found a motel room 41 with a black hole

No, because you remember this time last year I told both of you to come with me

to the petrol station and I'd been drinking, but I saw Elvis, he's alive I

saw him and you wouldn't believe it and you wanted to blame the skies!

No listen to me just come to the Motel with me I can prove it all to you!

- I'm sorry okay we're not gonna come okay! - Oh okay look what we've done we've done

When all of this happens just act surprised!

Where you going Sally?

Leaving!

Look what...

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 have a meeting you.

Yes yes of course please come in!

I disagree, the fundamental law of mathematics exists only to comprehend

the impossible 1+1 does not always equal 2.

Everyone this is Aidan, professor

Jacobs has a fascination with the alternative perspectives of knowledge.

To think to know is to know what to think! Aidan, this is my very old friend Mr. Wells

Aidan takes my philosophy class at

Apollo, 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, forwards the most probable outcome, has been proven that

it's possible.

I'm writing a book a novel actually so some of the questions I ask

might seem a little out there. We need more time travel books in this world.

We don't need more books Mr. Wells, we need more scientists to make the

ideas in those books our reality! - Professor Jacobs!

I'm sorry, go on Aidan.

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 12 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'll depends on the rules that the time travel is set in, can the travel see

alternate versions of himself? - Yes definitely!

Mmm that's complicated.

Because time doesn't exist in nature of course it's a measurement of moving in

space. I tend to disagree with that nature is based in time but we could 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 nonfiction?

Okay I see what you're saying.

If he 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 would arrive at the same space but a different time or a

different space different time correct me if I'm wrong!

Yeah like a wormhole or stargate, go on you're doing fine!

I tell you what, a visual aid might be helpful here so, this is your life from birth to

death, and this is you today so if you were to go back in time to

yesterday, okay now if time is circular, you would bring space back to yourself

and travel through it. You could in theory visit past versions of yourself.

Parallel universe theory, one that is all in slices and infinite

amount really. It wouldn't actually be time, but another dimension of reality

- because time doesn't exist in nature la di da da - Why does he do when he goes through the hole

Ah well he's trying to save somebody, a girl.

Classic.

Predictable.

So he's already in a parallel universe because past

versions of himself was already visited him before he ever travelled.

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 in order to

influence another line. - Yeah, but that sucks!

So he needs to change a

different version of himself to get the desired result.

The story needs more

emotion, how does he know this girl? - 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 apart of his history?

Only if you set up the relationship at the

beginning, set up to destroy, it lacks surprise, but it works.

What you really need is a twist!

- I don't like twists. - That's what kids are into these days

special effects and twists.

None, he just goes through the hole, comes back out through the same hole

Sounds like the lasts 25 years of my marriage.

Thanks for letting me speak to your friends tonight Mr. Wertz.

- You're more than welcome, you sure you're okay? - Yeah, I'm all good.

So where would you go?

If you could?

I don't know.

- What about you? - Forward first, and then back to fix it.

When I was 12 years old, I had this idea, most of my friends had dreams of flying

mine were travelling 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, put the call out that I wanted to

travel through time, go on TV, newspapers, concerts, t-shirts, books, really put

the word out there that I wanted to travel through time. 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, and they'd go back and come and get me.

Maybe one day.

So, your character can't go forward?

Only back.

Make sure he goes back for the right reasons.

Make sure he influences the most important situations.

He will.

Aidan, 27 graduated two years ago extremely high marks in philosophy and psychology.

You were a state champion scout member.

Mum left you as a baby then Granny took the reins, broke up with Lauren a few

years ago, decided to take her on a joyride, crashed the car killed her, then

ran away and now 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 a deep 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 the...accident?!

The voice triggers a memory, things don't add up Aidan, you seemed genuinely

concerned the last time we spoke to you, then you just ran 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?

(punch sound)

You confess to us right now your heard in a court,

the judge will be lenient, say nothing confess silence, your penalty will be

something to regret.

So what's it gonna be?

You want to know the truth?

Please...

I found a time portal a hole, that leads back to yesterday

Wow. Is this classified as insanity?

I tried to go back and stop the accident I

couldn't save her.

They never can.

So you killed her, then went back 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?

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.

(alarm siren)

Thanks for the idea.

You'll be waiting here Marty McFly.

How are you going man?

You got any heroin?

You gotta dance with me.

We're in this together dancin' with me!

Try this step!

Try these steps, try dancing!

Hey, I'll swap with you.

(laughing)

Oh alright, good step!

Oh wow!

Pick it up!

We're out of here together!

Down the road, we're gone!

Don't go, don't go, do leave me!

Come back, come back! Me and you! Ahhhh!

Hey it's me!

I'm sorry, can I help you?

You know 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 in your life that something could have gone another way.

I don't know what you mean.

Like your life could have changed, like you weren't

gonna be a lawyer?

Well, yes as a matter of fact I almost went off to war.

Then what happened?

I registered, and I was preparing to leave, then the strangest thing happened.

I'm sorry, I don't know you. - That's fine you've said enough.

You changed your line it's possible.

Okay.

Tomato sauce and the music note G

Blue guitar and a frozen gorilla lung.

I've seen you before.

I wish, could see your grandfather again.

Can I take you somewhere?

No.

Nothing.

Will you read to me.

Yeah sure.

In my bag at the top.

Where should we begin?

The end.

Oh you again, is this the first time or the second time, yesterday or tomorrow

who knows who cares!

You might want to put that knife down.

Oh no, you can't stop me from cutting myself, don't you get it yet, if I don't cut

myself I don't get taken 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 getting myself.

So how do you know you're gonna tell me to come here if I'm already standing here in front of

you and you haven't been to the hospital yet?!

Exactly!!!

So how do I influence time?!

(door banging)

Open the door please, this is the management!

I saw you! A better version, a different version of you!

You saw that did you! Thought I'd try it out!

Well it worked, you changed your own life!

Close enough right!

(glass smash)

What the hell?!

He'll think that's how we got out!

You're a smart one!

How did you do influence the alternate version of yourself?

The trick is to stop the person being in the situation in the first place, if you

can figure that out!

C'mon please, open up!

Remember! Time travels with you!

- I'm looking for Blytheville? - You're a fair way from there.

Really?

Say you look familiar, do we know each other?

Not yet. Aidan.

Dwyer.

This is Aidan dear, Aidan, this is my wife.

Hello, nice to meet you Aidan.

I'm gonna 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.

Okay bye. Lovely to meet you Aidan.

You too. Goodbye

A golf ball drowned your Grandfather.

I wish I could see him again.

I've got something for you.

What is it?

You have to open it tomorrow. - Tomorrow?

Don't open it until then...

it's very important.

So your character can't go forward only back? Make sure he goes back for the

right reasons, make sure he influences the most important situations.

He will.

You have to go to the Heathscape Motel.

Can I walk you home?

The truth is we are not really here for that long, and for the majority of us

will only get one chance...

at all of this.
