This is beautiful.

-Sam!
-Yeah.

Ready?

Oh, man. This is in rough shape.

Just needs a little love. Come on.

It needs more than a little.

Seventies add-on, huh?

-These are gonna be hard to match.
-What's up?

Hardwood floor's rotted over in spots.

Probably just easier
to carpet over it, right?

Well, our client wants to restore it
to its original glory.

Okay. It's his money.

Where do you wanna start?

No power.

Let's find the breaker.
It's probably in the cellar.

Oh, now this is beautiful.

It's like a time capsule.
Barely been touched.

-Sam?
-Yeah.

Yeah, it's an awesome cellar.

How about that?

What is that?

A barometer. Probably turn of the century.

It's really cool.

Hey, what time do you think we're
gonna be done tonight, by the way?

-Here you go.
-Thank you.

Cheers. Here's to that.

Hi, Francesca?

-Sam?
-Yep. Yep.

I'm sensing from your tone
that if I was another ten minutes,

I'd be asking the bartender if there
was a Francesca here at some point?

-Five more. Tops.
-Fair. So fair.

I'm sorry.
Look, I'm not usually like this.

"Guy who's late." It's my brother's fault.

So, you're "guy who blames his brother"?

Yeah, sometimes.

We work together restoring houses,
and he adopted a baby recently.

He's just been a total tyrant ever since.

I think it's the lack of sleep thing.
It's a real thing.

Boy or girl?

The baby?

Oh, girl. You wanna see a picture of her?

-Yeah.
-Cool. Here, look.

Oh, my gosh. She's so cute.

Right. Isn't she beautiful?
Her name's Alice.

And that's my brother Jake.
That's his husband, Roger.

Super cute family.

-They're the cutest family.
-Yeah.

So, are you a good uncle?

Yeah, I'm the best.

-Really?
-Oh, yeah. I'm Uncle Sam.

That's funny.

-All right.
-I'll see you soon?

-Yeah.
-Okay.

Bye.

Hey. Morning. Sorry.

Shirt's on inside out.

What-- How'd you even see that?

Does it bother you
to be such a cliché millennial?

No. I'm actually kinda loving it.

So did you think any more
about my suggestion?

-I don't know.
-Come on.

"Taylor Brothers Construction"
has a much better ring to it

than "Taylor Construction."

Yeah, and I kinda like things
the way they are.

So, make it more permanent.

Do this with me. Aren't you tired
of fixing up other people's homes?

Before you know it,
we can afford this place ourselves.

Jake, I love ya. I do.
It's your dream. It's not mine.

-It's Honus Wagner all over again.
-No, it's not.

-Yeah.
-No, it's not.

Yeah, it is. How many yard sales
did you make me go to? Twenty?

It was not 20.

It was, like, 15.

Yeah, to find
the holy grail of baseball cards.

Which you were sure
someone just forgot about,

and we could find it
and sell it for a million bucks.

Yeah, it was a good plan.

Yeah, for an eight-year-old.

You're always searching.

-Yeah, what's wrong with that?
-Nothing.

But if this life isn't for you,
stop wasting both our times.

Go find out what is.

But I'm having so much fun, though.

Come on. Look at this.

We got 60 watt. We got 90 watt.
Gotta go 90, right?

Edison bulbs.

Old house, old bulbs.

Hey. Hungry?

Oh, look at that. Buried treasure.

"Cabbage."
Pretty loose definition of "treasure."

Wow.

You know,
you can't swipe one of those things.

No, I just...

I don't know.

I don't know. She seems kinda...

Ah, damn it.

-Ready?
-Yeah.

-Jake, grab the door.
-Got it.

Damn it. The breaker.

I got it. I got it. Hang on.

Jake? Hey, Jake, the breaker's on.

There's a saying
Goin' all around this town

And I'm beginning to think it's true

It's awful hard to love someone

When they don't care about you

I once had a sweetheart

Just as good as any in this town

But now I'm sad and lonely

He done turned me down

I ain't got nobody

Nobody cares for me--

Who are you? What are you doing here?

-You're her.
-Don't-- Don't come any closer.

What? No. No, I'm not gonna hurt you.

-I just--
-Are you from the bank?

No, listen, I'm not from the bank.

-I'm restoring this house with my brother.
-You're lying. We have until February 5th.

I don't know what the hell
is going on here.

You're trespassing. That's what's
going on. And you need to leave.

Jake!

You-- You can't go up there!

Jake!

Jake!

You have five seconds
to state your business

before I splatter your brains
all over this wall.

-That's really not necessary. Just listen.
-Five...

-Where is my brother?
-Four...

-Can you please stop counting?
-Three...

Jake?

Jake?

Now, listen. My mother is about
to walk through that door,

and she is mean as a snake,

and she hates bankers even more than I do.

-I mean it!
-Please, just--

If you value your life,
you better start running.

-Just listen to me, okay?
-Go!

Get outta here! Leave!

Evelyn?

-Yeah?
-Is there someone here?

What? No, of course not.

-What's in the box?
-A dress for your engagement party.

-It's a gift from William.
-I already have a dress.

William wants you to wear this dress.

What if it doesn't fit?

You'll make it fit.

Excuse me.

Evelyn, are you listening to music?

Give me those phonographs.

There is a certain behavior
that is expected of a lady, Evelyn.

But Emmett loved music.

Your brother is dead and buried.

And here we are,
without a penny to our name.

That's why you're marrying me off
to the highest bidder.

You could do worse.

William is a good father.
He's a temperate, God-fearing man.

Why don't you marry him?

I will not allow you
to squander this opportunity.

William will not understand
your perverse taste in music, Evelyn.

So, I beg you, give me those.

Yes, Ma.

Actually, those are mine.

Sorry, I knocked, but no one
was at the front door--

And who might you be?

Sam.

Sam Taylor.
I was friends with your son.

I loaned him those records.
I was just coming to pick 'em up.

You're a friend of Emmett's?

Did you practice together?

They were classmates.

Medical school.

Sam's a doctor.

Well...

It's always nice
to meet a friend of Emmett's.

-Please, take your things.
-Thank you.

Will you be joining us tonight?

I'm sorry, tonight?

At Evelyn's engagement party.

Oh, that's very kind of you,
but I'm only passing through.

I see.

Well, I trust you can show yourself out.

Yes, ma'am. Right away.

Here you go.

-I owe you a debt of gratitude.
-Yeah, no. Don't even worry about it.

What on earth are you doing?

Sorry, is there, like... a trapdoor

or some kinda secret exit
or something in here?

People usually use the front door.

Hey, look,
I promise I'm trying to go home.

I just-- I don't know how.

Why can't you go home? Where are you from?

I can answer that,
but you're not gonna believe me.

-Give me a chance.
-Okay, fine.

I'm from the future. The year 2019.

My very own time traveler.

All right, you want proof?
Here, look at my phone.

Your telephone is in your pocket?

No, I know. I know I had it.
I must've dropped it or some--

Okay. Here, this.
This, look, see? See this?

That's you, isn't it?

Where do you think I got this?

I found it here in this house
in the future.

Well, that's impossible.
I've never had my picture taken.

Well, not yet. But clearly you will.
See? I knew you wouldn't believe me.

Well, then how did you get here?

Trust me, I'm still trying
to figure that out myself.

I don't know how this works. Okay.
It's gotta be something about this house.

Is there anything unusual about it?

My grandfather built it 40 years ago.

Grandfather? Okay, can I talk to him?

Now is not a good time.

My family's all very occupied
at the moment.

Right, with the engagement party.

The one that I just got invited to.

-No.
-Yes.

-No.
-Yes.

What happened to
the whole debt of gratitude thing?

Look, I'm not--
I'm not asking you to believe me.

Okay, I'm just--
I'm asking you to help me.

Well, you're not exactly
dressed for a party.

But I may have something.

There's my granddaddy. Come on.
I'll introduce you.

-Look here.
-Granddad.

Hey.

-Evelyn.
-Hello.

This is Sam,
Emmett's friend from medical school.

This is Grandpa Warren.
Did I mention that he built our house?

It's a beautiful home, sir.

Why, thank you kindly.

I noticed you built
a storm cellar in the basement.

-That was a smart move.
-Well, you gotta have one in these parts.

Yeah, yeah. I was curious,
is there anything weird about that cellar?

-What do you mean by "weird"?
-I guess what I mean is

I was down there during a really bad storm
and my ears started ringing.

I was just wondering why that was.

Well, that's easy. During a bad storm,

the air pressure drops,
and that gives you the ringing.

Really? Okay, can you tell me more?

Good evening, everyone.
Welcome to my home.

As most of you know,
my children lost their beloved mother...

last year to influenza.

And although she can never be replaced,

we are fortunate to have found
someone wonderful to join our family.

Evelyn Porter.

And now, the only question
that remains is...

Can she dance a turkey trot?

Wonderful news, my darling.

I have arranged
for the wedding announcement

a sitting... with a photographer.

-A photograph?
-Yes.

I must have a photo of you
in your bridal gown.

For posterity.

The young doctor. Who is he?

Friend of Emmett's. Just passing through.

I need someone to dance with.

Oh, okay.

I'd love to, but I just-- I don't really
know how to do the turkey trot.

I'll teach you.

He seems to have a way with my girls.

Mildred, it's past your bedtime.

Good dancing with ya.

Thank you for entertaining my daughter.

Yeah, sure.

You were right. The photograph.
It was me. It will be.

I don't know how. But... it will.

Look, the guy who's friends
with your grandpa,

the one who knew all about the weather,
where did he go?

Henry Barrett? He just left.

My fiancé just went
to put the children to bed.

Would you care to go for a walk?

Yeah.

The future. What's it really like?

I don't know. I guess it can be
anything you want it to be.

You can order food to your house
instead of cooking sometimes.

And it can be anything too.
It can be Italian, Chinese, Indian.

-Indian food?
-Yeah. Yeah.

And music. Music.
There's things called speakers.

You can put one
in every room in your house

and you can have music everywhere,
all the time.

I want all of that.

Yeah. Yeah, it's pretty cool.

Cool.

Wait. The Compound. I've seen that before.

My brother Emmett once told me
that there's a speakeasy below.

And everyone stays up until dawn
laughing and laughing.

I would shoot off my left pinkie
to see it.

You wanna try?

Well, you have to have
a password to get in.

Excuse me, sir.
Do you have anything to drink in here?

How 'bout a root beer?

Well, actually we were hoping
for something with a little cabbage.

What'd you say?

I said "cabbage."

Follow me.

-Hello.
-What will it be?

Liquor, please.

Gin and tonic, squeeze of lime.
Two of those.

All right, two bits.

Two bits... Yeah.

Here, does that cover it?

What are you trying to pull?

I've got it.

Thank you.

Thank you.

William never lets me leave the house
without a few coins.

Thanks.

-To the future.
-To the future.

Wow.

-Wanna dance?
-Sure.

Hey, you know what?
I think you oughta go do a song.

-You oughta eat a cup of dirt.
-I'm serious.

So am I.

All right.
I'll tell you what. Flip a coin.

Heads, I'll go outside
and eat a literal cup of dirt.

Tails, you go do a song. Deal?

Deal.

Darn.

Excuse me, man.
Is it cool if the lady sings one?

Okay. Thank you.

Okay, you're up.

Thank you.

-Do you know "After You've Gone"?
-Yeah.

-That one.
-Okay.

You know I loved you for these many years

Loved you night and day

Oh, honey, baby, can't you see my tears?

Listen while I say

After you've gone and left me crying

After you've gone, there's no denying

You'll feel blue, you'll feel sad

You'll miss the only pal you've ever had

There'll come a time when you'll regret it

There'll come a time and don't forget it

Oh, babe, think what you're doin'

You know my love for you
Will drive me to ruin

After you've gone

After you've gone away

Away

I have never felt like that before.

My heart... was pounding out of my chest.

My God, you were incredible.
You were incredible!

See, what did I tell you?
You belong on that stage.

-You really think so?
-Yes. Are you kidding me?

Did you see the crowd? They were smitten.

I wasn't looking at the crowd.

Evelyn!

What do you think you're doing?

Hey, look, it's not her fault.
I needed something from the pharmacy.

-She was just showing me the way--
-Don't play me for a fool.

I know exactly what this place is
and what goes on in here.

You never cared when Emmett
would come here.

Emmett was a doctor. You are a young lady
and an engaged one at that.

-She doesn't even love the guy. Are you--
-This is none of your concern!

Hey, Evelyn,
you don't have to go with her.

You know nothing.

Come on, dear.

Henry? Sam Taylor, from the party.

The boy with the ringin' ears.

Yeah, that's right.

Listen, we never got to finish
our conversation from last night.

About the storm
and the low air pressure.

Not sure what's left to talk about.

Well, I meant to ask you.

Let's say I need the pressure to drop
like that again so my ears would ring.

How would I know when
the air pressure drops low enough?

Come here.

This here is a barometer.

You hang it on your wall.

When the storm strikes, the needle drops.

Yeah, I've seen one of these before.

The pressure, when it dropped,
the needle, it jumped off the dial.

Off the dial, huh?
Well, that'd have to be a derecho.

You know those really bad storms
that we had lately? That's a derecho.

Lasts anywhere from a week to two.

Storm rolls in and out and turns vicious
in the blink of an eye.

So it could last another week?

Give or take. It ain't an exact science.

Okay, and during this derecho,

the storm, it'll drop the pressure again
just like it did before? You sure?

Most likely, I'd wager.

You know, that last one split my oak
and knocked the doors right off my barn.

Sorry to hear that.

Listen, would you mind if I borrowed that?

Well, I'm not in the business
of givin' things away.

Hey, wait, wait. Your barn doors.
You need help fixin' 'em?

Pretty good with my hands if...
if you'd be up for a trade.

-Go away.
-You're leaving?

-What, are they sending you somewhere?
-I'm sending me somewhere.

Where?

Anywhere but here.

All right, wait, wait. I went and saw
your granddad's friend. That guy, Henry?

I think I know
how we can get back to 2019.

We?

Yeah. You don't deserve this.

You deserve to be free and happy.

To be who you wanna be
and who you wanna be with.

It doesn't have to be me.

But if you come with me,
you can have all those things.

You don't belong here. You know that.

All we need is the storm to worsen
and the pressure to drop, okay?

Look. Now, I found this
in the cellar in 2019.

It must mean
that I'm the one who put it there.

Maybe all this always happened. Maybe you
were always meant to come back with me.

I know it sounds crazy. I ju--

Wedding's in ten days.

What if the storm doesn't come by then?

It's here now. We just--
We have to wait for it to get worse.

Soon. Soon.

Hi.

-Hey, kid.
-Yeah.

You do nice work.

Thanks. It's gettin' there.

Yeah.

The missus wants you to stay for dinner.

How do you feel about pork loin
and rhubarb pie?

Not sure what a rhubarb is,
but sounds good to me.

Now, stay very, very still.
This is a long exposure.

We don't want you blurry.

Give us a smile, dear.

I wanna always remember you like this.
Young. Beautiful.

Well...

Hold.

Good. All right, a little longer.

And...

Damn. We're losing the light.
We'll need another one.

I'm feeling a bit light-headed. Pardon me.

Hey. Hey, hey. Come on!

-Is it time?
-Almost.

Come on. Come on.

You think I didn't know?
You think I wouldn't find out?

-Parading around like some common whore.
-Isn't that what you want?

This marriage is only about money.
And that's not who I am!

-Hey! Don't touch her! Don't touch her!
-No! No! No--

You can't force me to marry you!

-I won't let it happen!
-The hell I can't!

Sam! Sam!

Evelyn! Evelyn!

-Hey!
-What? Whoa!

-Hey! Where is she? Where the hell is she?
-Whoa, what are you doing?

Here. Here. This, this. See this?
How did I get this, huh?

Jake, this proves I was there.

All this proves is that you found
another matchbook in better condition.

No, no, no. You're not listening to me.

I am,
and I really just think you hit your head.

I didn't, though.

I didn't. I didn't. It was real.

She-- She was real, I--

Okay, listen.

She's a piece of history
that got lodged in your brain.

No, no.

But whoever she is, she's long gone now.

Now let's pack up, okay?
I wanna get home before Alice goes to bed.

Come on, man. Get your stuff.

I can't go.

I gotta stay.
I gotta find a way back to her.

Get in the truck.

Roger made empanadas.

Let's go eat some,
and smoke a bowl and maybe eat some more.

I'm gonna need to borrow your cell phone,
your lightning cable

and that blanket you keep
in the back of the truck.

I'm gonna stay here.
I gotta figure this out.

Jake, please.

No, no, no.

The derecho that we're in right now
is what we call a "super derecho."

It's highly destructive,
but, luckily, it's extremely rare.

The last super derecho
was around a hundred years ago.

1919.

Sadly, thanks to global warming,

the intervals between
these vicious storms are shrinking.

We'll probably see the next one
in ten or 15 years.

No, no. Can't wait that long.

-Hey.
-Hey.

Come over for dinner, yeah?
Alice misses her Uncle Sam.

No, I can't. I can't. I gotta stay.

-Sam.
-That's it. That's it.

Sam!

Come on. Come on. Come on.

Hush, little baby, don't say a word

Papa's gonna buy you a mockingbird

If that mockingbird won't sing

Papa's gonna buy you a diamond ring

If that diamond ring is brass

Papa's gonna buy you a looking glass

Good night, Sam. Happy birthday.

If that looking glass is broke
Papa's gonna buy you--

Mommy. Is someone there?

-Sam.
-Jake?

What the hell is that? What'd you do?

We put in the wine cellar.
You knew the client wanted it.

No, no, no. You changed it.
You changed it. You changed it.

-You changed the air pressure down here.
-Hey! Hey!

-Sent me to the future, not the past.
-Sam! Jesus, Sam.

-Sam, Sam, you're babbling.
-You gotta help me get it outta here.

Look, I went to the future,
and I saw her. I saw her.

We-- We had a kid.

We had this beautiful little boy.

But none of that can happen if I don't
get back to her and save her, okay?

-Do you understand that?
-I'm really worried about you.

Yeah, I get that, Jake.
But I just need your help right now, okay?

If I get this stuff outta here,
will you go see a doctor?

Yes. Yes. Okay. I promise.

Okay. Come on now.

Sorry, Jake.

Sam! Don't do this. Sam, come on!

Sam!

Evelyn!

Evelyn!

Sam?

We gotta go. Now!

Come on. Come on!

-Sam!
-It's okay. We'll be fine. We'll be fine.

I promise. But we have to go now.

My leg's stuck.

What are you doing?

All right. Listen. You have to go.

-No, no! Not with-- Not without you.
-No. Hey, hey. Listen. Listen.

I went to the future, okay?

-What?
-I saw you.

You had a son. You had a little boy.

You were singing to him.

You're gonna make it.

Oh, we... We have a son?

No.

You do.

I wasn't there.

-No.
-Yeah.

No.

This is what's supposed to happen. Yeah.

No.

-Trust me.
-No. No. I don't want that life.

-It's okay. It's gonna be okay.
-No.

Listen, listen.

Tell my brother I love him.

He's gonna help you.

-Go.
-No, no, no!

-Evelyn.
-No! Sam. Sam.

-Sam.
-Evelyn.

-Sam!
-Evelyn. I love you.

But you need to let go now.

Sam. Are you okay?
What the hell's going on?

Sam?

You hungry?

All right, then.

I brought you a change of clothes.
I wasn't sure the exact size.

So, hopefully they fit.

He said there'd be music in every room.

He really loved you.

Told me all about ya.

What'd he say?

Well, it wasn't just what he said,
it was how he said it.

Never heard him talk like that before.

All about your singing.
And your record collection.

Well, they were my brother's.

I hid them down here behind the walls
so my mother wouldn't find them.

Sam saved them for me the day we met.

You know, these walls are the originals.

From Sam.

He made it.

He's in 1919?

Dear Evelyn.

By the time you read this,
I'll be long gone.

But I needed you to know

I didn't die in that storm after all.

He's down here.

I was desperate to get back to you.

I waited for a year,

but no storm came.

I was told one wouldn't,
but I still hoped.

Then I realized something.

As much as you belong in the future...

...maybe this... this is where I belong.

I found my place.

And it was all thanks to you.

I have a life at last.

You know, it's ironic.

I came from a place with too many choices,
and you had none.

And now, it's time for us to move forward.

To put the pieces in place
for our futures to take hold.

Honus Wagner.

I know you'll find this letter, Evelyn.

I know because, like I look for you,
you look for me.

But it's time for you to stop looking.
It's your turn now.

Your life is waiting.
Go out there and get it.

All my love, Sam.

Mommy, is someone there?

No. No, sweetie.

Everything's okay. Everything is fine.
