Of course, yeah.

Well, what about...

I don't know what to say.

you can call me anytime,

but I'm gonna go.

Okay, let me say my piece.

Of course, yeah.

that you are my favorite person?

free-spirited best friend?

so differently, like,

it's fascinating.

we are meant to be together.

I am more myself around you

before we knew each other.

you felt all that about me, too.

What about all that?

Right.

you can call me anytime,

but I'm gonna go.

That was a bust.

for one second.

What is your heart telling you?

That we should break up.

Ignore your heart.

telling you to do?

Break up.

do better than you.

You'll never do better than me.

than each other.

Here you go.

specifically?

Rigid?

Yes.

You wanna break up? Cool.

the entire time we were together?

Put away your notebook.

I'm breaking up with you.

I'm breaking up with you.

Did that work? Anything?

We should break up.

I'm gonna go.

We should break it off.

I should go.

All right!

I get it.

I'm gonna go.

But I'm not giving up.

What went wrong?

[loud banging]

Stillman!

I can hear you in there.

What? No.

and heartbroken

4.0, that's no reason to...

There you are, man.

I was worried about you.

Found me? No, I called you.

super freaked out.

Ooh, drinks.

Right now? Sure.

gone for, like, a week.

during that time.

I've been working.

And I need your help.

this thing?

It's not a game.

with Debbie.

really cool.

you're stalking your own life.

it's a little pathetic,

get everything laid out

gonna find the answer.

What's the question?

What went wrong?

to last year.

Go back. Use this.

Back to the beginning.

Day one.

built in resonance.

affect the structure

which can... can we just think

mind-blowing that is?

the harmonics come in?

but as they build exponentially,

becomes relative.

Do you get it?

No, I don't think so.

That's it for today, class.

Really advanced stuff.

Nobody can hang with Stillman.

sometimes when he gets stuck,

forget it.

It happens.

Don't you have Frisbee class?

it's not a class, it's a team,

and I think you know that.

so now you and me

going away party thing

at the place with the chick.

really awkward.

it's gonna be awkward.

Your awkwardness is constant.

that is what we have to solve.

You like what I did there?

Last one.

She's still working.

IPA. Rum and coke.

Oh, shoot. [laughs] Okay.

Yeah? What's up?

Wait, wait, a nerd idea?

Dude, no.

and I'm kind of a dork, so...

Exactly!

I'm a physics genius.

she's gonna think of that.

actually talk to her to find out.

All right, I'll just be honest.

Honesty's cool, right?

Mm-hmm.

Diet Dr. Pepper?

today's your last day, right?

It sure is.

bartender in the whole city.

Oh, that's very sweet of you...

Stillman.

I'm a terrible bartender

I meant like as a person.

Oh. [laughs]

Uh, so where are you moving to?

I just got fired.

did me a favor by hiring me

a favor by firing me, too.

How?

so, you know.

your demo together.

your career possibilities.

Yeah, sure.

but I don't really have a plan.

For anything.

but I'd love to do lots of stuff.

as I can, forever.

That's kind of my only plan.

control your career anyway.

Don't you think?

Yeah.

You're a terrible liar.

deeply held personal beliefs.

[laughing]

simpler if I said "yeah."

So what about you?

Really? That's cool.

I'm a student, too.

What are you studying?

Lots of things.

way that you're supposed to.

I went to Hawaii.

To go to Hawaii.

if they want to let me back in,

to let them let me, so there.

So there.

Yeah, I love it.

accelerated program.

I need to be ready to work.

the proofs and the equations.

The whole riddle of it all.

anything that much.

ever considered physics?

Not until now.

Hello, darling.

You're not allowed in my bar.

I'm not ignoring you.

I'm not.

Get back there.

Where'd your friend go?

I don't know.

So what happened?

It got weird.

Can we just get out of here?

Okay. Ready for takeoff.

Evan, are you high?

Are you high?

What?

No.

Not in the bathroom.

Guess again, please.

[laughing]

You're too high to drive.

How do you know how high I am?

What is that?

Look at all this.

I'm allergic to math.

I'll get a ride with him.

I'm totally fine.

with the enemy.

like, a Frisbee thing?

then yeah.

No, stop, I'm serious.

smug and ungracious.

[groans]

your mother organic chemistry.

It's not funny.

Well, I'm coming with you.

Hey, you forgot your...

Ah!

Oh, my God!

Oh, my God, are you dead?

Dead? Why are you saying dead?

I'll get help.

I'm perfect.

But...

But I need to do something.

Before I forget.

you were grabbing at me.

It must be pretty important.

but I just figured something out.

what any of that stuff is,

but it looks pretty cool.

Really?

Yeah.

I never got proper credit

for hitting you with my car.

that moment a bit differently.

Anyway, look.

my good memories, right?

made a kind of crude slideshow.

Help us stay organized.

Yeah, so crude.

[happy music playing]

See, we can be happy.

Look at that mane!

Evan, can you stay focused?

On what, man?

what is this whole thing?

we need to address.

Now we're getting somewhere.

from last year.

just be one solid red line.

This is why we broke up, Evan.

why you broke up?

Look. Day 37.

Day 51 and 52.

Day 70. All this stuff I regret.

Interesting.

Really? Over Y? You think so?

prove the proof then go ahead.

I'm flirting with you, dummy.

Oh, yeah?

Ooh, talk physics to me.

Okay.

monomial.

Oh! Give me something else.

Oh, I love it.

I love you.

Scoot.

What is this?

In case I forget the words.

And I never play for anyone.

I know you don't.

with something, Stillman.

so I kind of want

to trust you with something.

This was kind of inspired by us.

Yay!

Thank you.

What's it about?

I don't know.

You don't know?

taller than a tree

or am I the howling monkey?

like that.

I see.

No.

I'm not.

you don't say what you feel.

I was kind of waiting

for the line that's like,

Or, just like,

I don't know.

then you ran off,

and sang a song about a monkey.

I love you.

I've said it to lots of guys

wanted this to be different.

Sorry it upset you.

All right.

you're different from anyone

anyone I've ever known.

and you're driven

your opinion a lot

to play this for you,

my work like you treat yours.

I realized that

you'd find a nice way to tell me

of the smartest people I know,

you're also one of the kindest.

reason to be sorry, okay?

That was a great song.

Not really.

Okay, I don't blame you.

I love you.

I love you, too.

Oh, what a piece of shit.

Huh?

this crapfest, too.

that's up there.

is a masterpiece.

Right. I forgot.

Well, what'd you guys think?

It was good. Yeah. Yeah.

[all laughing]

I can't help it.

It was good.

Holy crap, that movie sucked!

That's a neat trick.

an intergalactic suckfest

and how about that blue...

with the blue face...

What?

face blue, anyway?

Whatever. All right, whatever.

Farallon Five.

You keep laughing about it.

slapped you in the back of the head.

What?

That's disgusting.

If that's what you're thinking.

was for everyone.

How sweet.

what a donkey slap is.

Okay, so, yeah,

remembers Day 122.

but you really think

Maybe, maybe not.

It was kind of early on.

'cause I'm coming down a little,

of all this?

It could've been different.

pictures to figure that out?

Let me rephrase.

It's gonna be different.

of wrinkle in my theorem,

and that just kept expanding.

your mind like a broken heart.

[feedback]

is what I think you think this is.

No.

no, no, no, no, no.

is taking a very scary turn.

duties and I'm stepping in.

Time travel and Debbie?

You gotta stop.

crazy scientist things.

does not do anything.

doesn't do anything.

Evan...

Stillman, listen to me.

Evan!

She is the love of my life.

You understand?

anyone better than her.

my haltingly analytical mind

to just roll with shit.

She is a kind, carefree spirit

could love the stupidest of people.

I admire her so much.

She's great, I know.

move on from someone like that?

Well, I'm hoping...

um, yes?

what I know.

Oh, good, what do you know?

an elastic temporal quality

to all preexisting phenomena.

Evan...

I can change what I did wrong.

every broken heart wants.

A second chance.

[note reverberating]

shrink on that thing.

No, this controls the machine.

talks to my phone in the past.

Look, I need help.

No, I need your help, Evan.

I need you to come back with me.

You want me to come...

No!

No! I'm not going to...

single moment of this relationship,

pretty good advice.

believe this works.

I believe it could give me a seizure.

have you tried talking to her?

most people do after a breakup.

to the whole time travel thing.

It doesn't work.

this is the only way.

Please! Help me.

Okay.

Where are we going in your time machine?

What are you doing?

Come here.

I don't like that.

[high-pitched whining]

Holy shit, that hurts!

Oh, my God!

Huh?

Do this.

thrown into another icon state.

Wait, you mean it worked?

Look where we are.

the day you hit me with the car.

Last year, day one.

from last year?

to fight him or something?

You are the you from last year.

and your gut.

Your hair!

Yeah!

I know.

Yeah.

a motherhumping time machine.

Do you know what this means?

We can go anywhere. Do anything.

we could run with the Vikings.

We could go to wizard school.

to literary fiction.

to do anything.

all right?

this text will disappear...

stay together.

Seriously?

I asked you to come.

Yeah, that was before I knew it worked.

on the scale of possibilities,

to get your girlfriend back,

it's kind of low-fi.

Then what the hell am I doing here?

All right.

Thank you.

That was crazy.

we didn't order?

No, just seeing her like that.

These are cheese fries.

cheese fries anymore.

This... Oh!

travel through time.

Cheese fry?

That really messed you up, huh?

she was breaking up with me

over and over again.

at the beginning,

before she knew me.

Before I screwed everything up.

like this anymore.

I'm in.

that when we do succeed,

the time machine for a little spin

of the universe.

I'll just go down on Marilyn Monroe.

gonna have sex with you

She's not?

fix my crap year a little?

Can I win my Ultimate Frisbee league?

Debbie back before your game.

So what are we doing?

What's the mish?

This is the starting point.

going forwards through time

as we go.

with a car?

Not if I know I'm going to.

Okay, well, you might not,

of these bodies in 25 seconds,

what we did before.

Go out.

She comes out to see me.

Awesome, let's set shit right.

I gained, like, 30 pounds last year.

eating these after we leave.

Okay, last one.

[groans]

Ow, where are we?

Good luck.

I think we're all ready.

watching here again, Stillman?

Right. Um...

So, this is considered by many

sci-fi movies ever made.

even started the movie?

And I'm already this excited?

next three and half hours, huh?

my favorite movie ever.

excited to share it with you guys.

Yay.

Holy crap, that movie sucked!

His face... what?

face blue, anyway?

You know what, guys?

all you want.

that you don't like it.

likes movies that make no sense.

It made perfect sense, Carly,

don't understand it,

a dumb-ass bitch.

Crap.

His face... what?

face blue, anyway?

You know what, guys?

you hate this movie, all right?

That is fine!

Way too loud.

His face... what?

face blue, anyway?

I mean, that made no sense.

[Carly] Yeah.

this is upsetting you

any of us want.

We were just having a little fun.

No hard feelings, okay, stud?

You didn't have to.

All right, I'm gonna go back.

We can watch it scene by scene.

exactly why you guys...

We got it.

in the Ceetu-5 galaxy,

they live in ultraviolet.

I thought it was great.

Oh, my God, no, this isn't working.

After the movie. After...

poke fun at the movie.

I don't care what you think.

you're hurting my feelings.

Dude, this is the worst!

It's worse than the movie!

talking about?

Do it like this.

His face... what?

face blue, anyway?

You know what, guys?

pizza is on me tonight.

[doorbell ringing]

Which is my little way of saying I'm sorry.

Apology accepted.

I am sorry that...

Thank you, sir.

know nothing about movies.

such a work of art.

So it's all on us?

You uncultured heathens.

[laughing]

I did. It was great.

at this game than I was.

she likes me best.

You know, like, confident.

What's up with the text?

It's still there.

I mean, it was the first stop.

What the hell are you wearing?

I had this stuff all last year

if I needed it.

We both know how that turns out.

half an hour.

Two minutes till what?

Till we jump out.

We gotta keep moving forward.

Wait, what?

to fix here.

My hair!

will stay on after we leave.

I bomb my huge test tomorrow.

like, 90 seconds of homework?

Then why are you playing video games?

a major distraction last year.

I had to get it out of the way.

Evan, if you want to graduate,

your overall attitude.

That's really good.

I'm inhabiting now

he'll be motivated, yeah?

And he won't remember

of this body?

I don't think so.

gonna look at all this reading

and smoke a bowl.

"Call of Duty."

Or both.

I'm gonna write him a note.

How much time do we have left?

Thirty seconds.

I don't have time

to craft something more complex!

I'm gonna leave him a message.

don't be, like,

who doesn't do anything.

Why are you so mean?

You're right. Yeah, I'm sorry.

and you are a shooting star,

too much.

Like a piece of shit sometimes.

and you're literally always high

up to your awesome full potential.

How much time do we have?

[moaning]

we'll take the stairs.

[sprays]

Come on.

and I wanna dance!

up another floor.

Oh, my phone died.

How do we know where we're going?

I feel it.

Hey, yo, oh!

No, it is not a party up here,

but look at the view!

Evan up here,

our own little dance party.

Yeah.

Hey, wait.

are you?

like, a fear of being confined.

Trapped is a better word.

Hold on.

Wait, what is happening here?

What can I say?

[lock clicks]

...nerdly obsessions.

you just did that.

Do it again.

[sprays]

Ah. My foot. Again.

[sprays]

okay, wait, nobody...

Damn it, my foot.

Do it again.

I'm just gonna take that from you.

your scarf to yourself.

Ah. Ah. Ah!

Damn it, my foot!

I'm losing my mind.

And I forgive you.

ever heard in my entire life.

this is my corner back here.

Right? Private space.

and then tomorrow

and the day after...

Out of my way.

Nope. Hello?

[screaming]

[cell phone ringing]

[Evan screaming on phone]

Hey, man.

I think I'm dead.

machine's broken or both.

There's people looking at me.

over here, man.

Relax, all right? We're on the roof.

that was a nightmare.

worst elevator ride to hell

and over and over.

Huh?

moment with Debbie,

you gotta redo, too.

what are we fixing?

It was just really nice.

to let my hair stuff set in,

the best of?

You too, Evan.

What are you doing?

No, no, no, that's it.

No.

What? No. Stop.

I'm the mission commander now.

You're telling me!

your Houdini lockpick thing.

you're gonna need to get into some shit.

Some messy shit.

with the stick up your butt.

the camping trip?

Day 276.

[loud dance music playing]

It's a party!

Yes, that was and I'm aware

describing and the camping trip.

to the big stuff.

You're right.

We gotta get into some shit.

with something, Stillman.

And it really means a lot,

to trust you with something.

I love about this?

and I know it.

you feel that way.

I'm just... I'm saying it's fine

say it right away.

No, no, I want to say it.

something for you first.

what I'm trying to say is

in whatever order you want.

I'm not.

this up by second-guessing it.

I've already blown it,

do it all again.

This whole thing.

Okay, you're gonna love it.

with a bunch of confidence.

What are you talking about?

[doorbell ringing]

Hey, hi, Deb.

Sorry, it's Evan.

Oh, hey, Evan.

Yeah, I'll buzz you in.

[buzzing]

Hey, Still...

Dude, what are you doing here?

Dude, I lost my keys.

The Evan I zapped into is really high.

Also, he doesn't have his keys.

have time for this.

of screwing something up.

What do you mean?

Hey.

Wanna come in?

No, thanks, Deb.

ramble on and ruin your night.

You got any left?

Uh, good question.

[groans]

are gonna be so beautiful.

Oh, man, that was out loud.

this all again, anyway.

until I've done it all.

What is "it all"?

All the cookies.

[phone chimes]

Hey, what you doing up there? Hmm?

Well, I just fixed the app

that controls my time machine.

Oh, a time machine. I want one.

And where are we going?

You're not going anywhere.

Evan and I are gonna go back

bizarre situation.

No! Why?

and I screwed it all up

and that led into a fight.

An "I love you" fight.

That's not a real fight.

We love each other, Evan.

I know.

How long have you known?

Um...

Impossible for me to tell.

A long time.

Yeah, me, too.

Hmm?

perfectly imperfect moment.

Okay.

I have no idea.

when the machine froze up,

it all came out beautiful.

Oh, it's still there,

Yeah.

much better than the original.

I feel like I could've said

would've been cool with it.

Good weed.

by the way.

Thanks, man.

and helping people out, you know?

Yeah?

music theory sucks!

Talk about a stupid major.

like last night.

you know what else?

at each location from here on out.

I'll do it anyway.

[guitar strumming]

She's good.

Thanks.

quiet where we can talk?

No, thanks.

this moment originally?

[woman] All right, yeah!

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Whoa.

Oh, thank you.

Thanks, guys.

but I just,

I actually did it.

you behind the bar this whole time.

Yeah. Come back Thursday.

I'll give you a cut from the door.

Oh, wow.

I'm gonna have to pass on that.

but thank you.

Okay, suit yourself.

like, a weekly commitment like this.

Maybe I'm making a mistake.

to get up there,

to take a step... a step back.

telling me not to wait

and to just take a leap.

trust my gut, right?

just trust your gut.

I love you.

some drinks.

That was easy.

And?

Um...

Gotta keep moving.

What?

is tomorrow.

once you get...

That D-bag Andy's here talking shit.

No, what'd he say?

He's so superior.

Now he's mocking me.

That's not really mocking.

to getting Debbie back,

with the dumb Frisbee game,

yada yada yada, but I want this.

and your broken heart.

but I just want it.

All right, screw it.

Yeah.

Really?

What about her?

Don't push it.

let's play some Ultimate.

[sighs]

Dude, why did you stop?

No, you got to keep streaking that way.

All right.

Who are you?

[cheering]

Yes! Oh, oh, my God. Whoo!

Suck it, Andy!

Oh, suck it! I win.

You lose. In your face.

Suck it.

Can I?

[cheering]

Oh!

You played your heart out.

Ready to go?

Oh, she's here.

We're here.

You're the best.

Hi.

Hi.

That was an amazing game.

I won it for you.

Really?

That was a dumb thing to say.

Oh, nothing.

to see you naked.

No, I know.

But you won't always think so.

Start it up, yeah?

I can't.

Will you excuse me for a sec?

It's frozen.

some very crude things to her.

'Cause I thought

Well, I don't know.

It's locked me out.

when I kept redoing the rooftop.

No, I haven't broken it, Evan.

It's just not responding.

So we just have to leave

Well, who cares about her?

No offense.

working, I'm gonna lose Debbie.

[cell phone ringing]

It's Ryan.

I'll call him back later.

You don't like him, do you?

You didn't have to.

Of course I like him.

Come on!

phone down for one second?

I'm sorry.

Come on, share.

he wants to hook up with you.

I know.

That's how he gets in so close.

how you feel.

Now it's out there.

Yeah.

been there for me

the worst times of my life.

So he and I share a bond

than anything sexual.

Oh, great.

Listen to me, babe.

some faith in me.

Okay?

to that summer camp

or something?

the whole place to ourselves

an awesome blowout

and I want us to just have fun!

to be weird.

It won't.

Don't worry.

Okay.

[phone chimes]

[cell phone ringing]

Hey, dude, where are you?

with my new study group.

a study group?

to psych.

think I can go talk to Freud?

I'm not getting from the text.

You don't know.

Evan, I need to talk to you.

in front of the library

That's fine.

ask me to leave anyway.

Yep, I'll be right there.

Oh, I'm screwed.

Sort of.

and that's it.

let's just get out of here

in this ancient civilization.

so much progress.

together once we're home.

is still an issue.

head-on.

dirty at the sexy gay firepit rave?

that's not what happened.

though.

on being jealous of her gay best friend?

I thought he slept with dudes?

Look, you're missing the point.

care about gay or bi.

They're just a bunch of gorgeous

with a ton of glow paint,

no clothes, less boundaries,

their leader, armed with nothing

that only moves forward.

the first time around.

Whatever.

to change about all of it?

I gotta be cool with it.

Yeah, you may be screwed.

[cheering]

[loud dance music playing]

Hey, guys! There you are.

You made it, my favorite couple!

You're the sweetest.

I'm so glad you guys made it.

Yeah?

Stop it now.

with just anyone, you know?

All right, stop, Ryan.

to be the right kind of man...

to give her what she needs.

Right? Right?

You know?

You know?

I'm just having some fun.

Let's have fun.

Excuse me.

Oh, would you?

Great.

Shall we party?

Ah! [groans]

That never sucks less.

[cell phone ringing]

Yo, I have no idea where I am right now.

that I've never seen before.

Something we didn't do last time.

because of the changes we made?

does nothing look familiar?

Uh-uh.

the floor in front of me.

Well, what's in it?

I'm kind of scared to open it.

What's in the box?

You know what? Relax.

How's it going over there?

You wanna come back me up?

about Evan improvement,

about how I spend my time.

It's fine. I've come too far.

Hi.

It's Blue Ribbons girl.

I wonder if we're dating.

I gotta go.

Well, we're dancing.

That's not dancing.

They were...

you want to go home?

Come on, man. Too close.

'cause of the rain.

the couch by yourself?

Of course.

Thank you so much.

You're moving! I'm helping.

Totally. One couch coming up.

Stillman run off to?

[Stillman howling]

[vocalizing]

Hey!

What's he doing?

Debbie, Debbie, Debbie, Debbie.

Debbie, Debbie, Debbie.

Debbie, Debbie.

Debbie, Debbie, Debbie.

Where's the music?

Fire. Fire. Yeah!

[dance music starts]

I feel like I belong here

and that's all Debbie.

I used to hate parties.

or who to talk to.

Totally.

it doesn't matter.

Especially with you guys.

to hang out anywhere

and be with anyone.

I am so glad you feel that way.

so we could, you know, hook up?

Oh, yeah. Yeah, totally.

Totally.

My mistake. Have fun.

[yawning]

There you are.

What, this relationship?

No. No.

Listen, I'm not sure

but it kind of sounds like

that is no longer about dinner.

I'm sorry. Okay, I'm tired.

It still can be.

we just go for a wander

a cool, little spot, hmm?

Oh, here it is.

Make a wish.

You have to close your eyes.

I just wish I didn't get so mad.

I mean, she messed up.

Yeah.

our first big night together

Price-N-Nice!

how loudly I scream that.

and you changed your major.

Something cooler

traveling through time.

Yes!

I know.

maybe another time adventure.

No, there is no...

The machine is gone.

Do you understand? I can't.

It is gone!

forever.

Yeah, yeah.

Fights happen all the time.

[man] Evan?

Not again.

what do I always say?

just a job, it's a...

Burden.

Family.

Yeah, dude, that's what I said.

Okay.

[laughter]

[glass clinking]

a toast to great friends.

Whoo!

to have you.

every meal Debbie makes is perfect.

smells amazing.

Oh, crap! Crap!

Crap.

It was only supposed to be in 15 minutes.

How long has it been in there?

give or take 15 minutes.

What happened?

I don't know.

spaced out.

So much for the perfect meal.

God, I'm so stupid.

I'm no slouch in the kitchen.

Shut up, Ryan.

Stillman!

Hmm? Oh, yeah, just now.

[ticking]

Such a perfect night, man.

Thanks.

I know!

I'm happy for you.

You look tired, my friend.

Get some rest.

we got a big day Monday.

her first album.

When did this happen?

it all happened so fast.

to mention it.

random series of phone calls.

that made it happen.

Remember that.

"Every day just feels the same.

in the way.

And I'm sorry that we came.

And I cannot place the blame."

Yes, it's good.

Stillman.

You're not sure about what?

Recording. The whole thing.

Are you nervous?

get you some more time to prepare.

You could? How?

I mean, I don't know for sure.

No, I'm not nervous.

It's just, like...

I don't care, honestly.

About any of it.

a big part of my life

I still wanted to do it

to see how good I could be.

And now?

strange that we never fight?

Me and you, we never fight.

Mmm.

you know,

we get along so well.

getting along.

never even disagree on anything.

something else bothering you?

No, this is serious.

we'd be better off if we fought.

I don't know.

something wrong with me.

with compassion for ourselves.

[door opening]

distracted by the outside world

simply return to the breath.

seems particularly important

just let it go.

it can probably wait till later.

maintain this space

next 15 minutes?

What's wrong with you?

Tell me.

She's changed.

for things

after marriage.

No, that's not why I'm here.

She's not who she used to be.

How so?

the time machine I invented?

No!

Well, I built another one.

How'd you do that?

And you're using it?

Like, all the time.

to make the bed.

She wasn't even home yet.

to make the bed,

So cut yourself off.

Debbie's not even Debbie anymore.

care about music.

She hardly even laughs.

so many times,

to have an effect on her.

That's your advice?

I don't know.

Whoa, slow down a second.

no relationships are perfect.

They all require work.

No, my point is

what you do have,

what the both of you have.

than you realize.

I don't know, man.

what we have anymore.

how to make you happy.

Maybe we should have a baby.

What?

This is your plan.

and then we travel, then kids.

So let's do it out of order.

I've been feeling so lost.

and music clearly isn't it,

to some new thing,

grew our family,

motion that we've been lacking.

I guess we could consider it.

I really think it could work.

Let's talk about it tomorrow.

so much better than this.

[loud knocking]

Hey. Hi.

for a run or something?

I'm super busy this morning.

I'll call you later.

your situation if you wanna talk it over.

I got a lot of things going on.

You gotta do what?

I gotta... I gotta go, Evan.

Please don't destroy it!

What do you care?

you should do anything drastic.

all right?

How long?

Since we got back.

be able to live without it,

I kept an eye on you.

That sliding glass door thing's

And I never catch you?

Right, yeah, of course.

I'm not hooked, all right?

very useful.

advice, man.

I'm not very good at it yet.

Like, a lot.

No, Stillman! Stillman!

I gotta end it.

[banging]

Okay.

No, ignore it.

It's just Evan.

What is going on?

Stillman, no. No, wait.

[both groan]

Stopping you!

From what?

gonna, like,

and uninvent the time machine.

Oh.

what you're gonna do.

Stillman! Listen. Okay, listen.

what we wanted, right?

and move on with our lives

as they are right now.

I still know the theorem.

I'll make another one.

I have to quit, cold turkey.

and the only way to do that

is to go back to the beginning.

Of time?

The day you hit me.

there's no theorem.

there's no machine.

And that will be it?

and my students?

My days with Lord Buddha?

I think it was him.

a super nice Indian dude.

Well, that's amazing, Evan.

about that, but... no.

from the machine would be gone.

I'm sorry.

You're not?

What, you're gonna fight me?

I thought you were enlightened.

What is going on?

What is that?

Evan?

It's a time machine, Debbie.

will keep you guys together.

A time machine?

I made it for you.

So that night that we hung out

traveling in time.

That was true.

From then till now?

A lot of work getting it right.

I know.

something wrong with me.

This is why we don't fight!

care about anything!

this has all just been bullshit!

how you noticed anything.

It was a simple enough theory!

unhappy and then you would be happy.

Super scientific.

How long?

In total years, not that long.

60, 70 years.

Give or take a decade.

What a horrific invention.

I know.

and make sure

none of this ever happens.

And you'll be free.

Get your head out of there, bud.

Ah!

This is who you really are, man.

fine without a time machine.

I promise.

I'm so sorry.

I love you.

you're gonna do this to me!

leave me here...

[both groan]

Oh!

Wait, where are you going?

I wish I had believed you.

Sorry.

I gotta hit you with the car

the thing.

You know what's ridiculous?

Wearing a uniform to work.

I'm not kidding.

in that thing.

if you just stand still.

No!

Look, this isn't even gonna work.

work out great for everyone.

Ah.

Would you just...

there for a sec?

Just wait there

This is embarrassing, man.

All right, come on.

[students scream]

Oh, Jesus. Oh.

for two seconds,

nudge, and it's all over.

than it needs to be, Stillman.

Stillman.

Evan, Evan, you know what?

I'm gonna do it.

I'm gonna do it.

I'm gonna do it.

Come on.

What is that, Evan?

Come on, hit me, man!

Will you shut up?

Right now, Evan!

[both yelling]

You gotta...

God, dude. Dude, dude, dude.

killed you back there, man.

Don't sweat it.

to go crazy like that.

At least it's over.

So it's gone?

There's no memory of it.

the phone, though, right?

Like you did before?

if I'd hooked it up.

I didn't think you were coming.

So we're stuck here?

we're going back eventually.

Just at the regular rate.

Exactly.

I think this time around...

I'm gonna grow my own pot.

on that last year.

It's time to say goodbye.

Good luck.

Thanks, man.

Your notebook.

Goodbye.

What?

Oh!

Oh, my God!

Get back here!

Debbie?

Your wife?

gonna have this fight.

No, shut up!

my life for that long

to control it again

being, what, heroic?

I didn't know what to do.

Okay. I won't anymore.

Well, I didn't get hit,

so there is no machine.

Oh, my God, stop.

what you're talking about,

pisses me off.

I'm sorry.

you can be such an idiot.

All right, my life is mine.

I know.

Okay.

You're terrible at fighting.

want me to say?

Cosmically.

by intentionally destroying

ever created, by the way.

You don't get points for that.

Oh, my God, this hurts so bad!

'Cause I wanted to make you happy!

And I never made it stick!

that, scientifically speaking,

mistakes thing really sucks!

are bullshit.

is that we have no control over anything.

of my heart...

I am sorry.

You trapped me.

I know.

Do you know how bad that is?

That's why I have to do this.

Yeah, maybe that's best.

I'm confused.

Right now...

we're together.

Now, that was a fight.

You wanna do it again?
