Oh, God.

World War I, the start.

When that Australian guy got shot dead.

Says Austrian here.

Uh, stock market crash of-
1929, October.

Yeah. Scopes trial.

1925, Tennessee.

- Can you see through these?
- No!

- Are you sure?
- Yes.

Uh-huh.

All right. Okay.

What happened December 7th, 1941?

Bombing of Pearl Harbor.

Uh-huh. Right again.

- Mm-hmm.
- January 3rd, 1959?

Alaska becomes the 49th state.

July 6th, 1954.

July 6th, 1954.

You should know this one, Hillary.

Don't tell me.

Uh, something about

Mccarthy.
No.

No. Uhh.

Polio vaccine!
No.

- What? Tell me!
- It's my birthday.

Like I'm very sure
that's gonna be on the test.

Just very sure.

And you must be Mr. Wilson.

That's right.

I'd like just
a minute of your time.

Who's she?

Hello?

How many bedrooms?

About five. Who are you?

Iovine. Madame Iovine.

All on the second floor?

- One on the third.
- Ah.

Not much storage, is there?

Oh, not criticizing,

just commenting.

Let's see what we have up here.

Let's just start all over
again. What do you want?

Lodging. This is an inn, isn't it?

Wait a minute.

Are you the one who talked to Sue Appleton

at the hotel with-
Obliging woman, isn't she?

Didn't she tell you
that we're not open yet?

Yes, she did.

And how are we set for lavatories?

My, what a handsome child.

Yours?
Uh, yeah.

Going to be a heartbreaker, this one.

Just give him a few years.

- This is Hillary.
- His daughter.

Oh. Well, don't you worry, child.

The chest will be along any time now.

Oh, and what do we have here?

Well, I must say, I
wasn't overly impressed

with the rest of it, but this is grand.

Simply grand.
Listen, Madame.

Iovine. How much for three nights?

Yeah. Take a look over here.

See that hole where a door normally goes,

All that sawdust out in the hall?

We're not open yet.

You're gonna have to
make other arrangements.

What about the hotel in town?

Oh, no.

No, no, no. Not the hotel.

Well, I don't know what to tell you.

You can tell me

how much.

Three nights. Five rooms.

Name your price.
Uh, you know, Dad,

I could just sweep up all this sawdust.

So, what's the story?

Do we unload or don't we?

Your price, Mr. Wilson?

You wanna stay here
you're gonna have to do

without some of the usual
amenities, all right?

Grand.

Simply grand.

Okeydoke! Every man for himself.

Kleph, Tod, I think that
you'll find this is suitable.

Chiron, Andar, I believe
that you will be comfortable

right over here.

And, uh, Jana, Spall, please.

Reeve? Reeve, you and Omerie, over here.

All righty. Every man for himself.

We're here,
Mr. Oscar. Upstairs.

Oh. For the love of Michael.

Yeah. Getcha a new bulb.

Ben, uh, by the way.

I'm Ben wilson.

- Spall.
- Spall.

So, you folks, you been on the road long?

Our tour began some time ago.

Ah. Where you all- where you all from?

- South California.
- Southern California?

Not there, Mr. Oscar.

Up here on the third floor.

Come on. Hurry. Maybe
they haven't started yet.

Still got paint in my hair.

What are you doin'?
Just pull your hair up!

So everyone will think

I'm a handsome little boy?

Forget you, Charlie.
Come on. Come on.

Oh, no! They already started.

It's okay. It's perfect.

- Perfect?
- Yeah.

We'll be the first ones
at the reception. Come on.

I don't know.

Those church bells haven't
rung in 10, 12 years.

Someone said 18, storm of '73?

Regardless, they got to
be rusted out pretty good.

Climbed the belfry
yesterday, first time.

It's quite a mess I inherited.

Yeah. No-no doubt.

Um, excuse me just a second.

Can I help you, miss?
Give me some money.

- Okay.
- Quick.

- Yeah. Okay.
- Come on. Come on.

It's for the dollar dance.
Gonna dance with Uncle Doug?

Here's 20, all I got is-
Thank you.

Hillary, I'm sure he's got change.

I understand you used
to be a contractor?

Yeah, yeah. Still am.

Stop by for a look, Ben.

Maybe what we need is someone like you.

Local citizen, man good with his hands.

What if the rest of him
were as good as those hands?

Ben. Ben.

Ben. I never expected to see you here.

What are you doin' drinkin'
that skunk piss? Come on.

Look at this. You're after the good stuff.

I've got ten cases of Heineken here.

No, I'm all set. Thanks.

Oh, that's right.

I heard you had a little
trouble with the hooch lately.

Well, you've tried the
hors d'oeuvres, haven't ya?

Good. Good.

Oh, that cake.

You got to have a piece of that.

Take some of it home with you, Ben.

I paid for half of everything here, Ben,

and what's mine is yours.

Right? It's all in the family.

Right, Ben?

I didn't know you two were related.

I was married to the
judge's daughter, Carolyn.

She's passed away.

I'm sorry.

Not nearly as sorry as some of us.

Why did you even come here?

Well, see, I got this invitation.

You got an announcement.

Good night, Reverend.

I didn't actually see the
accident myself, Reverend.

But other people did, and they say-

Why don't you just leave
bad enough alone, all right?

Aww, that's right, Ben. You just leave.

That's what you do best, isn't it?

That girl deserves a
better father, Reverend.

What kind of man can run
away while his wife dies?

What kind of man, Ben?

You tell me that, huh?

Would you just let it go?

Would just please stop?

Hmph.

Every day,

more and more like your mother every day.

Hillary!

Ooh, Dad!

Did you see that?
Ooh, yeah.

Oh, and
another! Look it! Look it!

Yeah, it's a meteor shower.

- It's, uh-
- Wow.

Perseid or something.

No, no. No, no, no, no.

That's- that's August.

This is another one.

What's that tune?

What? The one from piano class?

The one mom used to play.

What's it called? You know.

♪ Na-na, na-na, na na-na, na-na ♪

I just have this picture of her

sitting at the piano
playing that one song.

That stuff your grandfather
was saying tonight-

Oh, that.

I know it's a bunch of garbage.

Doesn't he
want to sleep inside?

Sh-sh, shh. Guess not.

Should we ask him?

Uhh, I don't wanna wake him up. Come on.

Well, he can't sleep like that.

Well, apparently he can. Let's go.

Now, it might get kind of cold tonight,

So you need a blanket or anything?

Mmm.

Mm, just that.

Just that.

Okay, get some sleep. Okay?

Good night.
Good night.

- "Fur Elise."
- Hm?

The song your mother used to play.

♪ Bum-bum, bum-bum bum-bum, bum ♪

"Fur Elise".

"Fur Elise".

It's one of
the grandest springtimes

in recorded history.

Oh, you idiot!

Retropologist.

You'll see. He'll miss it, you'll see.

After all of my careful planning,

he will actually miss the spectacle!

Andar, would you please check once again?

Hi. Hi.

I just- I was just- I
was making sure that...

I just thought I smelled something.

I was just making sure that...

What sort of smell, Mr. Wilson?

Smokey, sweet. Kind of smokey.

- Tea. Just tea.
- Oh.

Mmm.

I know what you're thinking.

Oh, look. There it is.

They used to call them "Kissing Bridges."

Because?

Because, in the old days
when kids would go out

on a hayride, they'd stop
under the bridge to kiss,

where no one could see them.

Are you sure they called
them "Kissing Bridges"?

Nothing else?
Mm.

Five minutes.

We'll be home in five minutes.

Time me.

Oh!

I'll get it. Thank you very much.

Late again, Mr. Quish.

Well, come in. Come in!

Your things are all
waiting for you upstairs.

Oh, yes.

Good example. Mm-hmm.

Post-gothic ersatz, isn't it?

Queen Anne, actually.

Mr. Quish. Mr. Wilson.

He owns this house.

And he's staying here with us.

Really? How uncommon.

So nice of you to join us.

And how was your ride?

- My ride?
- Mm-hmm.

Oh, yes. Thank you.

Fine. My ride here was
no trouble whatsoever.

Uh, come up, Mr. Quish. Come along.

I'm sure that you'll
want to bathe and change,

and I know that Mr. Wilson
would like to retire.

Come on.

Ash?

Mrs. Beecher.

I know- I know you didn't
expect to work till June.

But-
Oh, no bother at all.

Morning.

Mornin'.

How'd you sleep?
Are you kiddin'?

That's the Rolls-Royce of motor coaches.

Good. Great.

How do you take your coffee?
Black and sassy.

Tourists up?

Yeah, I heard stirrin's up there.

Supposed to do some sightseein' today.

Yeah? Where they headed?

Well, here as far as I know.

- Green Glen?
- Yeah.

Dandy little town.

Must be nice if you're city types.

Mm. What city they from?

I don't believe
they mentioned it.

Where'd you hook up with 'em?

Oh, about ten miles
this side of Middleton.

Ah. There isn't anything 10
miles this side of Middleton.

Which is where I found 'em.

Just standin' dead center to nowhere

and bags piled upside the road.

Huh. That's a little odd.

- Yeah. Here you are.
- Look at the furniture.

what a beautiful day.

Hello.

Morning.

I wonder if they're comfortable.

- Hello.
- Very bright, isn't it?

Here we are.

- I believe it's oak.
- Hmph.

I heard one of them say
somethin' about "the spectacle"?

What's that?
"Spectacle"?

- Yeah.
- Sure it wasn't "festival"?

'Cause there's that river
days festival over there

in Galley County.

No, I don't think so. No.

Rutabaga Festival over in Cloverdale.

No. This was "the spectacle."

Hmm.

Well, I tell ya what I
did find just a taste odd.

I mean, they're supposed
to be tourists, right?

Yeah?

I haven't seen one of 'em with a camera.

Not a one.

Oh, grand morning, isn't it?

Shaping up pretty interesting.

Never seen so many thin
people in one room before.

- Treaty of Versailles?
- 1919.

- Tennessee Valley Authority?
- 1933.

- My birthday?
- 1954.

Don't you forget it!

- It's the wrong day!
- What?

It's not Sadie Hawkins day!

Oh, my kid the genius.

Okay. Good luck!
Dad, come back.

I got to change!

On this side. All righty.

Okay. Bye!
Yoo-hoo!

Well, I don't see the logic

in replacing these bells.

And they're solid bronze.

They're gonna outlive you and me both.

The rest of this stuff though,

it's pretty bad, you know?
Yeah.

Yeah, see? Rusted clear through.

It's got to be rebuilt, all of it.

Is it somethin' you could do?

Uh, I don't know. It's a pretty big job.

Maybe you should talk to
somebody who specializes

in this kind of thing.

There's one
company up in Columbus.

I don't even want to tell
ya what they'd charge us.

- Uh-huh.
- Maybe you could

get started once the
inn is up and running?

Well, it could be summer, late summer.

Bells haven't rung in 18 years.

What's a few more months?

Uh-huh.

I take this job, I don't have
to fix this thing too, do I?

This is a
miracle. It still works.

It's a little fast, but it works.

Oh, boy, this is a piece of
engineering, this is. Whoo!

Whew!

I found some old,
uh, newspapers up here.

And there was a story about the, uh,

the sleigh and the, uh, the horse.

It's terrible how it happened.

And I didn't know Carolyn,
of course, but, uh,

I couldn't help but feel for her.

For you both.

It's done with, Reverend, okay?

Didn't seem like the judge thought so,

not the other night at the reception, huh?

Well, then why don't you just

take it up with him?

'Cause, trust me, he's
the only one that wants

to talk about it anymore.

Howdy.

Barry, why don't
you turn the car around?

- Mom?
- Yeah?

All right.

- Hey!
- Oh, gracious!

Hey! Are you all right?

- What happened?
- Oh, no.

- Is he all right?
- Did he cut his head?

No, I'm fine, really.

You want me to call somebody?

I got him. Okay.

- What happened?
- Whoa!

Here, just put him in the truck.

I can lift that.

- Wait a minute.
- He seems okay.

Friend of yours, Ben?

Well, no, no. He's just
staying with us up at the inn.

That's a lateral view, Ben.

No fractures. Nothing unusual.

Frontal view.

See it?
Uh-uh.

It doesn't show up in the
lateral photo. It's that thin.

And it's perfectly centered
behind the optic nerves.

- What is it?
- That's what I asked him.

- And?
- He wouldn't say.

Wouldn't say a thing.

Truck's over there.

I'll walk. Thank you.

Dangerous habit you have, walkin'.

Besides, we still got
to talk about the x-ray.

An abnormality of the
photographic process,

that's all it was.

We needn't attach any significance to it.

None whatsoever.

San Mateo County, California, 1906.

Lakehurst, New Jersey, 1937.

Spirit Lake, Washington, 1980.

- How did you-
- Funny.

You know, it looks like a
regular passport on the outside,

but on the inside-
I'd like that back, please.

And on the inside it's
got all these weird stamps.

Now at first I wasted a lot
of time trying to figure out,

"Why would someone need a passport

to travel around inside the country?"

Please, we're supposed
to keep those with us

at all times.

And then, I got started on the dates.

Now, how could anybody have
been to all those places,

all those years-
Give it back!

Tell me somethin', Mr. Quish.

What year are you from?

Okay. All right.

Tell me this. Why the inn?

Why my place?

Hey! You want it back or not?

Talk to me!

I'll say one thing, Mr. Wilson,

and believe me when I tell you
it is more than I should say.

Leave. Today.

Take your family and do not come back

until you're absolutely certain

it is safe for you to do so.

- All right. Single file.
- Come on, I got it!

- Oh, Sue. Hi.
- Oh, hi, Ben.

How did it work out with those tourists?

Fine. Have you seen Hillary?

I mean, she usually waits
for me over by the bike rack

when I'm late.

No, I haven't. Sorry.

- She left.
- She le-

You saw her? She wasn't
walkin' home, was she?

- She left with some man.
- Man?

Some ma- what man?

Mr. Talbert. Excuse me.

Uh, Ben Wilson.

Somebody just said that my
daughter left with some man.

- Hillary?
- Yeah.

- I thought you knew.
- Knew what?

He told me
it was all arranged.

Who did?

- Grandfather, the judge.
- Th-

They aren't here, Ben.

They- they really aren't.

She's all right, Ben.

I know that isn't very
consoling right now,

but please try not to
make things any worse

than they already are.

Can I help you?

He took my daughter.

I want to file a complaint,
and then I want you

to go out there and you
get that son of a bitch

and you haul his ass in.

It's a writ of temporary custody, Ben.

Signed this day, May 2nd, by
the Honorable Albert T. Riskin,

and executed in the county seat.

Riskin. Who is he?

One of your country club
buddies or something?

What the hell did you say about...

I can't believe this!
Single-parent, Ben.

Financially unstable,
alcoholic tendencies,

wife who died under
questionable circumstances.

It was a hard sell, Ben.
She's my daughter!

Yes, but in time we're hoping

she'll overcome that handicap.

Hey, hey, hey!

Where's she at! Where you got her!

I'm not an unreasonable man, Ben.

I'm fine. I'm fine, I'm fine.

Back off.
Let him alone.

You-

He can't do this!
Shut up!

- He cannot do this to me!
- It's your call, Judge.

You go near that girl
in the next 72 hours,

and this son of a bitch is
gonna slam you in jail so fast,

you're gonna make a sonic boom!

Now you get him the hell out of here.

He took my daughter!

He just took her away from me!

How's it feel, Ben?

Oh, how does it feel?

Leaving us, Mr. Wilson?

Just runnin' to the goodwill.

Can I carry something?

Got it. Thanks.

You haven't seen Oscar around, have you?

He mentioned something about
going to do some business

with the charter office,
but he should be back soon.

Why not wait?

Not that important. Heads up.

Perhaps you'd like to leave him a note.

I'd be happy to see that he gets it.

Thanks anyway.

I understand there was
a mishap with Mr. Quish

this morning and you
came to his assistance.

A bunch of people did.

Well, we certainly appreciate
the fact that you did.

As I'm sure he did.

Did you have a chance to
talk some, you and Mr. Quish?

What did he-

Oscar- Oscar...

I don't know his last name.

He's one of your bus drivers.

- Well, I try to remember-
- Listen.

Would you just tell him to call Ben Wilson

over at the Appleton Hotel.

Right. The Appleton Hotel.

Yes, thank you. Bye.

- Looks like it's number five.
- Okay. Here.

No, don't even think about it.

- Sue. Come on.
- No. No, no, no.

We're getting ready to sit down to supper.

You wanna join us?

- Australia-
- No, I got it covered.

"California, 1906."

Should know this one.

Hillary, you
should know this one. Come on.

Oh, Jesus.

What are you doin'?

So, why did you move out, Ben?

Hey. You only miss 'em
when they're gone, right?

I never asked you to leave.

Yeah. Well, that's
because you never talked to me.

Well, maybe I was waiting for you.

Maybe I wasn't allowed to speak first.

So, how do you like your tea, Ben?

Strong, I bet.

She sent you, didn't she?

Madame Iovine, to find
out if I know, right?

We know you know, Ben. That's obvious.

Question is, what are
you going to do about it?

- No.
- It really is tea.

Mildly euphoric, but it is.

And better than what you
were drinking before.

Ah, we're just tourists, Ben. That's all.

We're not going to harm you or anyone.

So why did Quish tell me to leave?

Mmm. He shouldn't have.

It's against all the rules.

What rules?

Rules that say we can't
talk about the rules.

Oh, well. Okay.

Let's talk about you, Reeve,

who you are and who you aren't.

Well...

Who aren't we, Ben? Who do you think-

I'm sick of it, all right?

I'm sick of your whole damn act.

Now, if you came up here
to drum up some tea party,

I ain't interested.

But if you came up here to
convince me not to talk,

not to tell people what little I do know,

then you damn well better start talkin'

and start talkin' to me.

And I do not mean in circles.

I want you to imagine something.

I want you to think of
a very different place

that doesn't even exist.

In this imaginary world, all is grand.

You don't need to work. You're never sick.

You're never hungry.

You're never cold nor hot.

You're healthy and safe
from the day you're born.

And until the day you die,
nothing ever goes wrong.

It's a grand world, Ben.

Most perfect.

And that's its one flaw.

So, I told you what I imagine, Ben.

Now you tell me what you imagine.

Of the future?

Of when you were watching at my door.

Tell me what you imagined, Ben?

And then let me show you
what we can really do.

Well, well, well.

Quite a little party
we seemed to have had.

All right, what did he say?

He knows where we're from.

But he doesn't understand much else.

Oh, these bygoners just can't
handle their tea, can they?

We'll
have to report Quish

to the undersecretary.

We'll do nothing of the kind.

Clearly a violation, agreed?

One incident like this can
shut down the entire tour.

Is that what you want? Go back right now?

Well,
what does it matter,

even if he knows about us?

The spectacle is tonight.

A few more hours and it will be done.

Poor thing.

What about him? We can't just leave.

Come along, Reeve.

You mustn't be late for the spectacle.

- Shit.
- What is this shit?

Just water, thank your lucky stars.

Oh, God, I hurt.

Well, that's good.

That's good?

Well, proves you're alive.

Couldn't tell by your pulse.

Oh, I can't remember what happened.

It has to do with something...

Something with Reeve.

Tourist gal?

Why can't I remember
what they were talking...

They were talkin' about
a special spectacle!

Spec- Oscar!

Oscar, what happened tonight?

Well, you tell me. Juicy part first.

No! No, no, tonight.

What happened? What time is it?

Uh, quarter to 11.

Where are they?

Where are the tourists? Are they here?

Why, in the hotel. I didn't see 'em.

No, in town! Are they still in town?

Well, they're up at
the inn far as I know.

What's that smell?

Shh-shh.

I can't
tell you how relieved I am.

Nothing that we really
couldn't handle after all.

This is the moment that
makes everything worthwhile.

Didn't I tell you this is the
perfect location? Didn't I?

Not bad.

It's not a meteor shower.

They fixed the light.

That's your big spectacle, Ben.

No, they're from the future, Oscar.

They're here for somethin'
else, somethin' bad.

- "Future." Why?
- Look!

I was in the doctor's office
when that other tourist,

Quish, Came in, he got x-rayed.

You hang around the
doctor's office a lot, Ben?

No, I'm serious.

Look. They got- they got passports.

They carry these passports.

And in 'em they got these dates,

dates and places where they go to.

I'm gonna go for a little snooze.

No, no. I'm serious.

- I'm tired.
- Listen. Just listen.

Hey, Ben, they're harmless.

They're just tourists.

They're not aliens.
They're not anything else.

They're just completely...

Har- harmless.

Whoa.

What is it? What have you done?

what a magnificent sighting.

Grand!

Simply grand.

Hillary.

Ben, what is it?

What the hell is it?

The
possible cause of the explosion

over in Green Glen.

One caller to the station,
an eyewitness apparently,

says it looked like a big ball of fire

falling out of the sky.

But we have no official
confirmation as of yet.

- Get me out of here!
- It's a go.

Hillary!

Hillar- where's Hillary?
What's happening, Ben?

We woke up to this hellacious noise!

Where's Hillary?

And there was that god-awful crash!

Where is she?

- Dad!
- Hillary!

Come on. Come- oh.

It's gonna be okay.

It's okay, it's okay,
it's okay, it's okay.

It's okay. It's okay.

It's okay. Come on, come on.

I'm over here.

- I got you.
- Daddy.

Hold on. Just hold on.

Remember to turn off the gas?

- Papa!
- Can you find it?

You're gonna be okay.

No! It's
not even there anymore!

I can't find it!

Where's- where's the hotel?

And- and the cafe?

The sheriff's station?
Come on.

That's why.

That's why they wouldn't stay there.

The school!

They're setting up a
shelter at the school!

If you don't have a place,

anybody who can't find your
family, go to the school!

Meteorite. That's
what somebody said.

- What are the chances?
- Where's Rafferty?

Doesn't he live over there?
Yeah, over there behind the-

Go to the school!

All right, look. I'll
go find out for sure.

You...
Look at that.

- Take my daughter.
- No, wait!

I'm staying with you!

Get into the shelter.

You'll be okay.

Let's see
what we can do. Come on.

Let's stay
together, everyone. Careful!

- No one-
- Hey- hey!

- It's so beautiful.
- Oh, Ben, not now.

There's just too much to see.

- So much damage.
- Watch your step.

Please, watch your step.

I tried to tell you.

I did try.
California, 1906.

That was the earthquake.

Washington, 1980, that's why
you had ash on your shoes.

You'd just come from Mount
Saint Helens. What else?

We got New Jersey, 1937. What was that?

Was that a flood, tornado? What?

Mishap with a dirigible.

Oh, yeah. Hindenburg, course, yeah.

You do it all over the place, don't you?

You're on a tour of these things.

I have work here, retropology.

I study the past first
hand, how things worked.

Artifacts, architecture,
technical systems-

Tell me something, Quish.

You got some good shots in your head?

You got some good pictures
stored away up there, huh?

Tell me. Tell me!

My psychographs are for
historical purposes, nothing else.

If there is a Fotomat back home running

a two-for-one deal, send me a set!

Glossy finish.

Because I just want a little keepsake

for all this death and destruction!

We cannot become involved.

Rule number one of the travel code:

No contamination of native-

One more word out of you, Mr. Quish,

and you'll be doing your
research out of dusty old books.

We'll be moving on soon,
leaving your time, your town.

As far as any of us are concerned,

you're just a bright young bygoner

who happened to make some
rather astute assumptions.

I'm willing to let it
go at that if you are.

Coming, Quish?

Carla!

Yell if you see Carla!

Grand, isn't it?

- Hey, kids!
- Hey, hey.

Come on!

You better get away from here!

Come on. It's not safe up here.

Let's get out of here!

Hey. Hey, come on!

Get out of here!

- Your name, please?
- What was you reaction

when you first heard the sound?

Can you describe the sound for us?

Did you know any of the deceased?

Were there any fatalities in your family?

Please. Try to talk to us.

Sir, please.

All right. Come on, come on now.

We can't allow the news media inside.

A hundred dollars.

Hey. Already taken.

I will give you a hundred
dollars for this cot.

Well, you can lay there for a second.

Thank you.

So where have you been?

Fighting fires, saving
lives, being a hero. Come here.

Mmm. You feel like headin' back home?

I wanna stay here and help.

If that's okay.
All right.

I'll stay too.

Just go home and sleep, Dad.

And get yourself cleaned up.

You stink.

Come back for me later.
Okay.

You sure?

Yeah. Maybe in a couple of hours?

Okay.

Okay. All right.

Is that my ears or your fingers?

I never was any good.

Carolyn tried to teach me, but...

Got to hand it to ya.

You had 'em pegged. Those tourists.

Future, who would've thunk it?

Not me. I just, not me.

I mean, they look just like you or me.

Well, better lookin',
of course, but still...

I think that was the point, Oscar,

that they were you and me.

What, how you figure that?

Doesn't matter.

They're gone. We're not.

It's over.
Nearly.

- Huh?
- They aren't gone.

What are you talkin'?

Rooms are empty. Th-
the beds are even made.

Well, did you come in
the front or the back?

- Oscar.
- Yeah?

If they're still here...

I'll follow ya in the bus!

The grain mill, it's
been shut down for years.

Well, I was by here just the
other day with the tourists.

Well, I didn't think a thing of it.

They just stopped and looked around.

Didn't I see binoculars on your bus?

- Yeah.
- Go get 'em.

Well?

I got to get in there,
see what they're seein'.

Christ. Oh, Christ.

Sorry, Mr. Wilson.

- Move.
- No.

Stop him!

Stop him!

Don't let him get away!

Faster! Faster!

Can't you go any faster?

Move!

Hey-hey.

Stop him! Stop
him before he interferes!

Oh.

What is it, stuck?

- Yeah.
- Let me.

- What the hell?
- It broke.

Oh no.

- Get outside!
- Go on! Hurry!

Tommy, help me.
Yeah.

Hey, go! Everybody leave!

Sir, could you give us some information?

No, just leave!
Everybody- everybody leave!

Please! Get out of here!

Get away from this place!

Hillary!

Hillary!

Hillary! Hillary!

Don't incite!

Don't go inside. Don't go inside.

Don't go inside!

They're all upstairs.

I tried to listen but couldn't
hear what they were saying.

I just figure they're gonna kill us.

Door's locked.

And so,
clearly, it was the doings

of Mr. Quish that resulted
in the actual contamination.

It was he who violated the travel code.

And it was Quish who chose
to take lodging with bygoners?

That was his decision?

That was the result of an
unlikely set of circumstances-

- Whose decision was it?
- Mine.

The decision was mine.

Hillary?

Hillary!

You let my daughter die.

Ooh. Easy, boy, easy.

Your daughter perished,
but you survived.

That much, at least, is as it should be.

The rest of this is an
unexpected permutation.

This is not
as serious as it seems.

We've recovered the remains.

What other evidence is there?

We leave behind only innuendo, stories.

And dead bodies.

What...

I don't believe this. You
could have done something.

You just- you just...

You watched.
Done something?

Yeah, like warned us, for Christ's sake.

I'm not going to get into
this too deeply with you,

Mr. Wilson, but seeing as how
you're already contaminated,

listen closely and try to understand.

We do not alter the past.

That would destabilize our timescape,

and we won't allow that because-

Because it's a perfect world, right?

Because we enjoy things as they are.

Yet we found in early dabbling

that time was not the fragile thing

that many assumed that it would be.

It was quite resilient, really.

That's why it is that we
can allow these tours,

but what we cannot allow is involvement

in isSues of life and death.

Now, these are things
that we can only watch

as they sort themselves out.

You understand?

Is that why you left me in the hotel?

You went there of free will.

You had me drugged to make
sure I'd stay there. Uh-huh?

What was I? Somebody you
just did a folk dance with?

Maybe I wasn't even that.

Maybe I was just some face
in some old photograph,

oh, some painting on a museum wall.

No, I never meant to leave you there.

I- I didn't-
Oh, hey-hey nobody cares.

Nobody cares what happens to
us. We're just bygoners, right?

Rottin' away in our graves
before you were even born.

Well, let me, I got news for you.

In this timescape, We're alive

and you are the ones that are dead.

You're dead because you don't feel.

You're dead because
you're so goddamn bored

with your own world that
you gotta come to ours

to be disaster groupies.

Spectacle.

You're just...

You're sad. You are just...

Passports, please.

Moving ahead to February 12, 1999.

Moving on, moving on.

Now, you must remember
that the Mardi Gras Fire

takes place in New Orleans,

so we all have to be up-up-up-up-up!

Yes? A little laughter, a little laughter?

Remember now, everyone happy.

Good girl. Life is grand.

Moving on, moving on.

Practice, practice, practice, practice.

All right, everyone, moving on, moving on.

Ben, I know it seems so fixed,

so unalterable, but there
are really only two things

anyone must do in life

and that's die and live until you die.

The rest is up to you.

I'll try not to forget you.

It's hard, but I'll try.

Reeve?

Come along, Reeve.

Spooky, how they do that.

- She slipped it to me.
- Huh?

What you got there?

Passport.

Quish's passport.

What's that? Oh.

Oh, my, looky there.

Ah, see, it's really a machine.

Question is: How do we get it to work?

Question is: Why do you care?

You don't wanna go where
those fruit loops went.

Gotta read the date somehow.

Now, does it feel the imprint

when it gets stamped, maybe,

then turns the
imprint into instructions?

Don't fuss with it.

Stamped, where'd it get stamped?

Where'd it get stamped?

What's the date?

The...

Okay.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

Now, that is nothin' like what they used.

That had to cost all of
2.39 at the dime store.

Ah,.

- "May 2"? That's yesterday.
- May 2. That's right.

And secondly, all of these
pages have destinations.

Now, you got a stamp for that too?

I'm at my destination.

Ben, this is not goin' to work.

So why are you stoppin' me?

All right.

That phone workin'?

I should've checked in a while ago.

Maybe I'm- maybe I'm-

I'm not holdin' it....

I won't, I think I'm not
holdin' it right, that's all.

She wouldn't give me
something that didn't work.

Come on, come on. Somebody be there.

Hey, Ben?

Ben?

Ben?

Oscar?

Oscar?

Yesterday.

Oh no? Then why was he packing?

Why did he rush away like that?

You're asking me to explain

the actions of bygoners?

Oh, I knew it.

When the boy told me a
retropologist would be coming,

I knew that there would be trouble.

Always a step behind, you people.

Always psychographing the most-
the most ludicrous things.

Spall! Omerie!

You warned him.

I know that you did, and
now we have to find him

before he destabilizes everything!

Go into town. Find his vehicle and hurry.

Go. Quickly, go!

We haven't long before
the spectacle. Hurry!

Dad?

Dad!

Dad?
Come here! Come here!

What happened to your
face and- and your clothes?

Just come here.

Now, jump.

- Onto what?
- Onto me. Come on, jump.

You? Do you know how much I weigh now?

A lot more than when we used to play-

Just please jump!

Okay. Come on.

Come on, what are you waitin' for?

Local constabulary, Ben.

From the sound of
things, we won't be long.

No, wait, wait a second.

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

I'm not tryin' to take her back.

I'm tryin' to get her away from here.

Anyone at the station
can baby-sit tonight?

Sheriff's station? Ah!

Hey!

Let him go!
No, wait, wait.

You can't take me there.

I mean, just not there, not tonight.

Leave him alone! Leave him alone!

Wait a minute. Wait a minute!

I told you this
afternoon what would happen

if you showed your face
around here again, Ben.

Please, let me explain. Please, please.

All right, let him have his say.

In a few hours, there
won't be any police station

and there won't be any hotel.

There's not gonna be anything at all.

And why is that?

A meteorite is gonna bury
the west half of Main Street

just after 11 o'clock tonight.

- A meteorite?
- Don't ask me how I know.

I wouldn't dream of it.

It's- it's gonna happen! It will!

Yeah, come on. Less mouth, more feet.

- Dad! Dad!
- Hillary!

Get away from here. Get
away from this place.

- Hillary?
- What did he mean?

You go back inside now.

- What did he mean by that?
- It's over.

It's all over.

Oh, God, we are not going to spend

the whole night here, are we?

No.

- We're not?
- I get off at midnight.

Ow. Ow.

You never gave me a phone
call. I get one phone call.

I get one phone call, right?

Lawyer's not gonna help you,

not this time of night.

I want the phone! Now!

Yeah?

Hello?

You gotta do something for me.

Who is this, Oscar?

I'm a- I'm across the
street. The sheriff's station.

Talk to me, Ben.

I've gotta talk to you.

Warn you. Tonight.
Wha-

Ben, are
you listening to me?

Please talk to me.

Yeah, I'm- yeah, I'm
listening, I'm listening.

I just don't- I don't know who you are.

You gotta get over here.
Just get over here right now.

I can't explain, but you gotta trust me.

Ben?
Yeah, yeah.

I'll see what I can do.

No. No, you don't "see" about anything.

You, don't drink the tea, either.

She's making you tea, Ben.

Don't- please don't drink
the tea. Don't drink the tea.

Just get out of there. Just get your keys.

Just get the keys to the truck.

Just get out, walk out of there,

and get your ass over
here before your daughter

has to die all over again.

You got that?

Ben!

I'm on my way.

Forty-five, six, seven, eight,

nine,

fifty.

Okay, what can I do for...

What dog shit is this?

You tell me.

Somebody called me, said
they wanted to talk to me

about my daughter.

- Don't move.
- What?

Who moved? I turned.

I just- I was here, I stand over-

- Just don't move.
- I'm...

- Still here.
- All right, Houdini.

I don't know how you got out of there,

but I do know how you're goin' back in.

Come on. Come on.
What is this?

This Caldwell?

Caldwell do this or did you dream this up?

All right. You got a problem
with the presidential suite?

Move on to the honeymoon.

What the...

Get the keys.

The keys, the keys, the keys, the keys!

Get 'em!

Now open the door.

Go down and open the door.

Tell me what's goin' on here.

We're breaking out
of jail, Ben! Come on!

Why do you look like me?

Aw, Christ, just think
about it for two seconds

and then you'll figure it out.

But go, unlock the door
while you're thinkin', okay?

Tourists. This- wait a minute.

This has something to do with-
Remember their passports?

I used one to come back, so I'm you,

you're me and this guy
is tougher than he looks.

Don't help. Whatever you do, don't help.

How come we can both be in
the same place at the same-

Fuck the physics, Ben!

By the time you figure out
whether it's possible or not,

we're gonna be dead, twice.

Now, let's get the hell out of here!

Great. Now get the truck.

Sheesh.

Hurry up. Let's go.

- I'll drive, all right?
- All right, go ahead.

You drive.

It's my truck.

A meteor.

That's it? That's the spectacle?

Yeah, 11:07. That's when it hits.

- So what are we doin'?
- We're gettin' Hillary.

What about everybody else?

Stop right here. This is far enough.

You're better off here.

Trust me.

Okay, let's go.

- Caldwell's.
- You never answered me.

- About what?
- How many people

are gonna die, five, fifty?

Come on. Tell me, how many-

What am I, a census taker?

The whole west end of town was hit.

- The whole west-
- Yeah.

You gonna drive?

So we just grab Hillary and run.

We don't tell anyone else?

I tried to talk to Caldwell

and wound up in a cozy little room

at ground zero, all right?

Wait, let's- let's just
think this through first.

Nothing happens to Hillary tonight,

it's tomorrow that-
Wrong.

We worry now, tonight.

But if it's the gas explosion at the-

You haven't seen what I've seen.

You haven't seen a goddamned thing yet,

and if you had, you
wouldn't be takin' chances

with her life.

What's that about takin' chances?

Just pull over. I'm drivin'.

Where, straight to Caldwell's
then straight out of town?

You don't have the guts to do it? Huh?

I do. Pull over.

I'm not sayin' we shouldn't go get her.

I didn't say that.

I'm just sayin' that you...

Wait a minute, are you callin' me

a coward?
Oh, what,

you gonna deny it, huh?

You gonna deny it to me?

Oh, yeah. Beautiful.

Listen to the guy who bailed
out on his dying wife.

Oh, you...

I was goin' for help.

You were runnin', man.

Town was north, you ran
south, and they saw.

And now it's happenin' all over again.

Well, this time it's not gonna happen.

It's not gonna happen 'cause
you're gonna stick it out

to the end, you got that?

The end. All the way, Benny.

This is
the most fucked-up thing

I've ever done.

All right, you got a better idea,

some brilliant plan to save everybody?

Let's hear it.

- No, I don't.
- I knew you didn't.

I don't know what to do about it.

- Oh, man.
- But whatever we do,

better do it pretty damn fast.

- Caldwell.
- Look,

I'm down here at the station.

Deputy's MIA and so's Wilson.

Ju-just a minute. Just a minute.

He escaped?

Unless they went out

for skittles and beer, yeah.

Oh, Christ.

Ben. How long ago?
It's hard to say.

Could be headed up your
way. You want me to come up?

Don't bother. We won't be here.

Get Hillary.

Come on. Come on, come on.

Now, what in the name of God is that?

I don't know. Let's find out.

Come on. I
never heard them before.

- Yeah. Come on.
- Wait for me.

Bells.

All right, now, go inside.

Wait for me inside. I'm
gonna see what's happening.

Sue?

Mrs. Appleton?

Hello?

Hillary!

Hillary!

Come on. We're
all goin' up to the church.

Hillary? Hillary!

Who is that? Who's up there?

That's what we're tryin' to find out.

You got keys?
It's not locked.

It never is.

Who's up there?

Probably some
animals or something.

Kind of
nice hearin' them bells-

What is it, little darlin'?

What the devil's goin' on here anyway?

Well, we got their attention.

Hillary. Go.

Ben!

What in the world are you-

Gonna give me that thing?

- Let's wait.
- For what?

Somebody to get hurt?

For just another minute.

Yeah, let's all just wait right here.

Get
out of my way, will you?

Come on. Let her through.

Let her- just let her-
Dad! Dad!

Is that
what this is all about?

Your daughter and the judge?
Let me through.

Will you let me through!
Upsy-daisy.

All right, Ben. It's all right.

What the hell is goin'
on up here now?

Oh, God.

Well, you were my second
guess, right after Quasimodo.

Stay here. Stay right here.

So, what's it all about, Ben?

You got a grievance? Air it.

Hell, there's no reason
to wait till next week.

We could have our hearing
right now, Ben, huh?

Now, tell us somethin', Ben,

otherwise we're all goin' back to bed.

It's gonna be loud. It's gonna be scary.

It's gonna sound like the
end of everything we know.

I mean, you got a joke? A story?

Hey, I know.

Tell us the one about your premonition.

You remember that, don't you, huh?

The one where the sky is falling?

It seems that Ben here thinks

we're gonna be visited by calamity.

What was it, an asteroid, Ben?

No, no, no, no, no, meteorite.

Yea, it shall fall from the
heaven and smite this very spot.

Oscar, what time you got?

It's time to settle, Ben.

You're here, I'm here,
a jury of our peers.

Hell, jury of half the goddamned county.

Just what is it you want to say?

Hold on. You just hold on.

You just hold on to me.

You just hold on to me,
we're gonna make it.

Everybody just- just hold on.

Tell 'em, not the school.

Anywhere but the school.

They'll listen to you now.

Over here!

Right. Yeah, over here.

Ben. God almighty.

Did you see? The hotel.

It's- it's just not there.

Good to see you, Sue.

Real good to see you.

Mr. Wilson.

There were still deaths, Mr. Wilson.

I figured there had to be, some.

So where are they, all
your- all your pals?

Well, the tour has been canceled.

In fact, all tours have been
suspended pending a decision.

- On?
- On whether or not

to destabilize this destabilization.

Did it occur to you that
we can correct all this,

that- that we can go back to yesterday

and do this all again if we choose?

If we find that this
has changed our world,

we can paint right over this timescape.

We can make it never happen.

- But you won't.
- No?

Would we be standin'
here talkin' about it

if it never happened?

Here's another one for you to chew on.

Maybe we did change your world tonight.

Maybe we made it a little less
perfect, a little less grand.

And maybe- just maybe you
liked it a little bit more.

Remarkable thought.

Not bad for a bygoner.

Mr. Wilson, why don't
you come along with me

and I'll take you back where you belong?

Tomorrow.

You worried I'll
screw somethin' else up?

There is a purpose to time, you know.

Keeps everything from
happening all at once.

So that's two days,
three nights and two rooms?

Now all we need is a
$50 deposit refundable

up to 48 hours prior to
arrival and we'll be set.

Check or charge?

Thanks.

All right! Honeymooners.

First week of October,

hooked and booked.

You know, I was thinking,
maybe we can have some kind

of practice week,

where we call up people we
know, make 'em stay here,

so we can, like, screw up on 'em.

What are friends for, right?

Bet Oscar would come.

Maybe he'd even stay inside this time.

Dad?

Dad.

Mom?
