Allow us to send one human being back in time.

Seven days to you.

Let's do it again.

Good omen.

What's that?

It's a butterfly.

You know what I'm gonna do after we do this job?

What?

I'm gonna move down to Belize.

Yeah?

Where's that?

I think it's a state down in Florida.

Hey, idiot.

Florida is a state.

It doesn't have states in it.

Oh, come on.

This isn't brain surgery.

Theoretically, we should be able to land that baby in

Space A-16 in the parking lot at Kennedy International.

Well, eventually, yes.

But what bothers me now is that the time jump is

accurate to the nanosecond, while the movement

through space is still wildly inconsistent.

I know we're getting closer.

The technology wants to tell us how to use it.

If only we weren't so... Human.

Exactly.

That's what I mean.

Sheila?

Sheila, please, I'm down to this stick.

Don't be such a baby.

Grape or orange?

Actually, I prefer lime.

I'll be right back.

I'm done.

Hi.

Hello.

That woman did not come from the secretarial pool.

No, but I got a clearance on his own.

He absolutely insisted on it.

What exactly does she do here?

We don't ask.

Maid service.

Come in.

You want to leave a chocolate on the pillow, go right ahead.

I'm afraid I had something a little more exerting in mind.

Oh, yeah?

I need to do another stress test.

I'm fine.

I'm fine, right?

I mean, you're not finding anything abnormal.

The definition of normal for you seems to be changing every day, Mr. Parker.

That's what's bugging me.

Every time I backstep, I live an extra seven days compared to everybody else, right?

Yes.

So, if I take, say, 15 backsteps in a year...

That seems a little bit drastic, don't you think?

Come on, it's a crazy world.

Just go with me on this.

15 backsteps.

That's three and a half months that I add to my year.

25 backsteps adds almost six extra months.

I end up living a year and a half for every year you do.

Or to look at it another way, I celebrate a birthday every eight months.

That's an awful lot of hideous neckties.

On the other hand, if I'm traveling near light speed anyway...

Then time would be moving slower for you.

And I'd, in fact, be getting younger.

What do you think?

I think that you should go with wishful thinking.

Hello?

Yeah, put him through.

It's my son.

Ramsey let you give him this number?

They bounce him off some CIA satellite.

Jimmy, hi. Is everything okay?

This Saturday?

Well, I don't know. Visitation's not for another week, but...

Maybe I can swing something. Is it that important?

What?

Could you excuse me for a minute? This is...

Oh.

Of course.

Thanks.

Jimmy.

Would you put Mommy on the phone, please?

Telephone, Mommy.

Who's it?

Daddy.

You called Daddy?

Hi. Frank?

When were you gonna tell me you're getting married, Pat?

I've been meaning to tell you. Really. It's just that...

I didn't think you were ready.

I mean, the last thing I know, you're in that...

Nuthouse?

Yes.

And now you're supposedly working for some top secret government agency...

where you can't even spend 20 minutes alone with your son...

without some security team watching over you.

You wanna know what I do for a living?

Well, it might clear up a few little apprehensions about your mental health, yes?

You really wanna know?

Yes.

Pat, trust me, you don't really wanna know.

In any case, it's not my sanity that's in question here.

You're the one who's getting married to a guy you've known... How long?

A few weeks.

Two and a half years.

He's in Navy Intelligence. His name is Mike Clary.

Wait a second.

All of a sudden, my son gets his stepfather and I've never even met the guy?

Of course you're gonna meet him, Frank. I just don't think this is the right time.

Obviously, Jimmy doesn't agree with you. He

wanted to know if I was coming to the wedding.

Pat?

I don't think that'd be a good idea.

What? You don't think this guy can handle it?

He's not the one I'm worried about, Frank.

Okay, you can stop now.

Mr. Parker?

Mr. Parker?

Mr. Parker!

I don't like this. Your blood pressure's 155 over 92,

and we're getting well above normal readings for tachycardia and dyspnea.

So I'm a little short of breath. Big deal.

No, this indicates a degree of anxiety we haven't seen before.

Something you'd like to talk about, Frank?

No.

Security mentioned something about a phone call.

What is this, junior high school?

Well, if there's anything we can do to help, let us know.

Right, delivery's been made and the diamonds are inside. Everyone know what to do?

Yeah.

Okay, then. Let's move.

Oh, I will.

Hey, hey, hey, Jimmy.

You know, as best man, it's your duty to protect that ring.

Don't worry, Mike. I will.

Maybe you should let me hold onto that.

Okay, let's go get a hot dog.

Everybody freeze, or we all blow up real good!

Hit the floor!

Give me the keys! I said give me the keys!

I don't have the keys.

Oh, shit!

Oh, shit!

Mitner said you were down here.

What's up?

Ever heard of some joker named Mike Clary? Works for N.I.?

You doing a background check on Mike Clary?

He's marrying Pat. I want to know what she's getting into.

Well, hell, you might as well just open up Time Magazine, man. The guy's a hero.

He rescued two downed pilots in Angola pretty much single-handedly.

Yeah, well, I guess I must have been out of the time zone.

Frank, if you're looking for dirt on Mike Clary, you're not going to find any.

He's one of the good guys.

We were the good guys, too, Donovan. Didn't mean we knew how to make a marriage work.

So what are you saying, man? Huh? You want Patricia back?

I ain't saying that.

Hey, partner, you gotta be crazier than even I thought

if you think I'm going to requisition you a jet.

Tom has authorized it, Nathan.

What, did we suddenly change our name to Project Santa Claus?

What the hell do you need to go to DC for anyway?

His wife's getting married.

Oh, is that right?

Mm-hmm.

To Mike Clary.

The Mike Clary?

Oh, yeah.

Wow. Silver star Mike Clary?

Mm-hmm.

She's moving up, Frank.

Look, I hope this isn't a bad time, but I really think we need to talk.

Come on in.

Dad!

I'm Nathan Ramsey, ma'am. I'm security for Frank here. These are for you.

It's an R-Series Surveillance Creeper.

It's bright as a cat, and you can spy on just about anything.

It's not available in DC.

It's not available in stores unless you shop at the CIA.

Oh, hey, that sure is something.

Frank Parker.

Mike Clary.

I wasn't sure you were going to be here.

Mike's here almost all the time.

Oh, really?

Patricia's told me a lot about you.

I'll bet.

Nathan Ramsey, sir.

And I've got to tell you, it is a genuine honor

to shake the hand of a patriot such as yourself.

I mean, what you did in Angola, that was a beautiful thing.

Well, it was just crazy luck I got those guys out of there.

Crazy and lucky is what keeps this country one step ahead of the game, right?

Yes, sir.

So, you're a master chef, too?

Oh, no, no, not me. I just, well, I like to help out once in a while.

It relaxes me.

Show me how it works.

Sure.

Excuse us.

You know, Mike, I've read about every agency.

Let's put it down here.

Wow, this is really neat.

That's great, isn't it?

Look, it has a camera.

It has little solar panels.

Two batteries.

Wow, you're the greatest, Dad.

Thank you.

Dad, what does this thing do?

Oh, that's a camera and that's infrared lighting.

Honey, can I talk to Daddy alone for a minute?

Okay.

Thank you.

What are you doing?

Just looking out for you and Jimmy.

We can take care of ourselves.

Then why are you worried the same thing is going

to happen with this Mike guy that happened with us?

I know, the guy is apple pie. He grew up in Mayberry.

But he's Navy intelligence, Pat, just like I was.

All those long stretches, he'll be gone.

You don't hear anything for months from him.

It's not going to be like that, Frank.

Don't kid yourself.

He asked for a transfer.

He's taking a desk job at the Pentagon.

He wants to be here with us.

He's not like you, Frank.

He doesn't need that rush like you do.

Hey, I don't need... Listen, Frank.

I'm in love with him.

And I really want this.

And Jimmy needs to know it's okay with you, so please don't ruin this for us.

So, everything all right?

Yeah.

Well, somebody wants to ask you something.

What is it, sport?

When I come to the wedding, I'm going to be the best one.

That's the best man.

You know what? I'd really like to come to the wedding, but...

I got this special job I got to do and I can't wait.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

The investigation continues into last week's bombing disaster in Washington.

Although no evidence of terrorism has been uncovered,

Premier Yetsu Lee of North Korea... Day one, Washington, D.C.,

a tanker truck blows up outside the North Korean embassy

on Embassy Row, killing the North Korean ambassador,

other diplomats and many civilians.

On day two, North Korean Premier Yetsu Lee

accuses South Korean terrorists of responsibility for the blast.

The next day, preliminary FBI report confirms

that the explosion was caused by a bone-stupid robbery attempt.

And then, Su Lee sends troops across the 38th parallel,

invading South Korea.

24 hours later, the U.N. demands unequivocally that North Korea withdraw.

And our friend, the ever-paranoid Su Lee butthead,

responds by overrunning two more South Korean towns.

It's day seven, people, and we stand on the brink of a new Korean war.

I take it a back step has been authorized.

Indeed. We have just hours left to go back

and prevent the robbery attempt that triggered all this.

Mr. Talmadge, may I suggest it be Captain Donovan that makes this trip?

What's wrong with Parker?

He's presently showing extremely high levels of anxiety.

He's agitated and distracted.

In my opinion, he may not be capable

of undertaking a mission of this importance at this time.

I'm quite capable, thank you very much, Miss Vogelich.

Mr. Parker, our tests show... I'm fine. Never better.

When you guys are ready to back step, you know where to find me.

He should not make this back step.

With due respect to Captain Donovan,

sending him on a mission of this magnitude his first time could be a mistake.

Is Parker physically fit?

Sir, the point is... I asked if he's physically fit.

Yes.

Brief him and get him to pre-flight. He travels in one hour.

Mr. Parker, wait.

I heard about your ex-wife.

When's the wedding?

Tomorrow.

You know, taking a back step is not the way to handle what's been bothering you.

Unless you're planning some mischief.

Are you planning some mischief?

I don't know what the hell I'm planning.

Isaac, tell me something.

How long have you been married?

Fifty-four very happy years.

Of course, my first marriage, that's a different story.

That lasted three.

What happened?

Well, I saw this girl on the boardwalk.

She had the tiniest ankles I've ever seen.

Not a good basis for long-term relationships.

Let it go, Frank.

Time to move on.

I know you're right.

But... We go.

Yes, sir.

Oh, baby.

I have to say these things, even though I know you won't listen.

You're in no condition to do this right now.

You're distracted, you're emotionally volatile.

This is precisely the kind of situation Donovan's been training for.

Have you heard any of what I've just said?

Absolutely.

But you're going anyway.

Parker, we think we're closer to getting the navigational system perfected.

You should be able to land in our secured hangar

at Manassas Airport, just outside of Washington.

You're actually expecting me to land inside the hangar?

Absolutely.

Well, with a 12 to 15 percent margin of error, Matt.

Of course, you will have to fly the needles correctly.

Great.

Thanks.

Thanks, Fowler.

All secure. Good luck, sir.

God help him.

Anti-oscillation phase cancelling system on.

Phase cancelling on.

Reactor to 100 percent.

EV minus five.

Four.

Three.

Two.

One.

Engage.

Engage.

Come on.

This is Conundrum.

Holy cow.

Sir?

Go ahead, Conundrum.

What day is it?

Tuesday, November 3rd.

Well, at least we got that right. Okay, it's seven days ago.

I'm in D.C.

There's got to be a massive explosion in the

1500 block of Embassy Road within the hour.

I'm on my way there.

I'll get right on it.

Oh, is Ballard there?

Uh-huh.

Yeah, I'm here.

When things quiet down, you and I have to get together.

There's still some bugs in the navigational system.

Hey, what the heck is that thing?

publicity stunt for a movie.

So, what did you think?

That was spectacular.

You should see the effects in the movie.

What's it called?

Mars needs a tax break.

Excuse me.

They're out of here.

Everyone knows what to do.

Let's move.

Hey.

Hey, hey, hey, Jimmy.

Now you know it's the best man.

It's your duty to protect that ring.

Don't worry, Mike. I will.

Honey, maybe you should let me hold on to that.

Hey!

Isn't that your ex-husband?

Oh, God.

Somebody grab him!

It's a robbery.

Stay here.

Mike!

Mike!

You are one dumb-ass criminal.

Drop the gun!

NSA Special Task Force.

Who called you in?

Long story.

I have a call for 148.

How's he doing? Is he going to be all right?

He's doing just fine.

Now, fellas, I need some time alone with my family.

Mrs. Parker, I am so sorry for your loss.

Have we met?

We're Mr. Parker's colleagues.

Oh.

Come on.

In national news, more tragedy tonight

as Washington mourns the violent death of Navy hero Michael Clary.

Clary died trying to stop a robbery in the city's downtown Diamond District.

Born in Lima, Ohio,

Clary was the youngest graduate of his 1989 Naples Naval Academy class.

He didn't look both ways.

You're supposed to look both ways.

What? What did you say?

He didn't look both ways.

You're supposed to look both ways.

Hey, why don't we go upstairs so you can take that nap now?

How's Jimmy?

He won't eat anything.

Rosemary took him to his room. Maybe he'll sleep.

Mom made an appointment for him to see a psychiatrist.

I don't know. He's just been so quiet lately.

He doesn't deserve this.

Neither do you.

When I try to think what I could have done,

maybe something different.

You saved a lot of people, Frank.

Who knows what would have happened if that bomb had gone off.

It's just that everything was going so right.

You know?

It was just so right.

Oh God, I forgot to catch the wedding flowers.

Call her.

I'm sorry to disturb you, Mrs. Parker,

but we have to take Frank back now.

He's gone.

Where are you going?

We'll take whatever you're holding.

Is that right?

You can give it up easy, or we can take it from your heart.

Your choice.

Gee, I don't know, fellas. Those both sound mighty appealing.

Come on!

That's all you got, punk?

You want some more?

Hold on, let me help you.

What weight class are you trying to defend, Frank?

All of them.

Let's go home.

Get your hands off of me.

Runs.

Runs.

Get out of here!

Come on, we have to get these sectors through security.

Come on!

Hurry up!

Tell me this is some sort of misguided prank, Parker.

Can't do that, sir.

Then what the hell do you think you're doing?

Going back.

Son, without NSA authorization, you are not going to the job.

Escort this man back to his quarters.

Sir.

I want a 24-hour lockdown.

In the morning, I'll decide if any measures are to be taken.

Let me save you the trouble, sir.

I quit the program.

What?

You heard me.

I want out.

You know what you're saying?

Send me back to Hanson Island.

It's where I belong.

Look, everyone realizes the position your last mission has put you in.

Frankly, it was lousy luck.

I'm sure you did all you could.

I saw Clary coming up behind me.

I had the chance to do something and I hesitated.

I could have saved the guy's life. I know I could have.

But something in me just...

Let him die.

Get him out of here.

Parker's out.

I don't see any way around that.

Well, I hate to say I told you so.

This project's way too important to have some arrogant hothead on the team.

Oh, so does that mean you're resigning too?

Good one, Ironside.

Donovan, I know you've been training hard for this.

You are officially our new Crononaut.

So, we move on.

Does everyone here understand what Parker's going through right now?

That's not the point, Isaac.

He admits he executed bad judgment which resulted in the loss of a life.

We can't afford to have him continue to jeopardize the program.

And I say that man is the program as much as any one of us.

His courage has allowed us to take leaps and achieve things

that might not have been possible in either of our lifetimes.

You know, I have to say, I'm not sure any of our

other candidates would have survived the first run.

When the sphere's damaged, we repair it. I say we can do no less, Parker.

I admit he's been an asset, but he's not indispensable.

No one here is.

You really mean that?

We go back a long time, Isaac. You know better than to test me.

Indeed I do.

Unless Parker goes back, I quit.

Resignation accepted. Anyone else?

For one thing, Parker's photographic memory has been invaluable to us in the past.

I'm not convinced that he is replaceable.

Are you saying you're prepared to stake your career in this country on that?

I'm saying that I'm not sure I will have a career without him.

I think the guy deserves a second shot, whatever it takes.

I mean, if we can't do that...

I'm not gonna kid anybody.

This project's my life.

It's my dream.

We lose Parker now, I don't know how long that's gonna set us back.

So, maybe it would be best for me to apply myself elsewhere.

You'd actually consider leaving the project?

I hear they're hiring at McDonald's.

Oh, God, I think I'm gonna cry.

Knock it off, Nate.

Hang tough, sir. You know you're doing the right thing.

BUSTER COLLINS

Around the world of miscellaneous sports in just 90 seconds, boxing is up first.

Buster Collins signed a contract with promoter Bobby Kane for a

heavyweight championship invitation fight with Trevor Lewis... Parker.

I thought you should know decisions of some

considerable gravity have just been made concerning you.

Yeah.

Suit up.

What?

Reactor to 60 percent.

God help him.

You need all the help you can get.

Yes.

Two...

One... Engage.

Oh.

This is Conundrum.

Holy cow. Sir?

I'm in D.C. There's gonna be a massive explosion in the 1500

block of Embassy Road within the hour. I'm on my way there.

We're on it.

Oh, and Ballard?

Uh, yes?

We need a new plan.

Hey, what the heck is that thing?

Publicity for a movie.

What's it called?

Mars Needs a Touch Break 2.

Hey!

Hey, my truck!

Okay, then.

Let's move.

Hey, hey, hey, Jimmy.

Now, you know as best man, it's your duty to protect that ring.

Don't worry, Mike. I will.

Honey, maybe not.

Maybe you should let me hold on to that.

It's a robbery.

Stay here.

Hey, Mike!

Sorry, I was such a jerk last week.

What?

Ah!

You have no idea the problems you've caused me.

No.

Look at you. You look great.

Congratulations, Mike.

Thanks for being here.

It means a lot.

Are you coming to the party, Dad?

Sure, you bet.

Show me the way, champ.
