Okay.
Let's go.
So,where you from,dan? You should have bought the jeans.
I know.
They were cute,but but nothing.
Katie,you got to use your gut.
The hippocampus,the primitive part of our brain,is far superior to the frontal lobes.
You got that? Which just tends to over-think everything.
Oh,I see.
So it was the hippocampus that told you to date that guy ronaldo? It told me to enjoy his flat abs,his gorgeous hair, - and his villa in positano,which I thoroughly did.
- Oh,my god.
Katie? What happened? Was the door locked when we came in? I don't know.
You opened it.
I opened it.
Right.
It was locked.
Okay are you okay? Dan must have cut himself shaving.
That's all.
- Shaving what? - Annette I'm sorry.
There is just there is blood five feet away from the bathroom sink.
I'm trying to figure out how your husband's shaving nick does that.
Did someone break in again? No,honey.
Did dad fall down before he disappeared? Disappeared? It is with sadness and deep regret that I announce that it is my intent to resign from the senate effective september so,did they get a blood sample from you? 'Cause I have low creatinine,and I always wondered if that had something to do with it.
No.
No blood sample.
did you contact her for me? Why don't you? 'Cause I don't have her number.
And that's why I didn't contact her for you.
Evan,buddy,don't sweat the small stuff.
- And it's all - small stuff? Isis.
.
is that what you think,ned? See,small stuff piles up until it's big stuff,then until it'S it's great,big,giant,hairy-ass stuff,ned! Youyou are one burst blood vessel away from being dumber than a mop,ned! - You okay? - Believe it or not,I'm sedated.
Really? Yellow pill in the morning,black pill at night.
Not without its charms.
I could see making it a habit.
So how,or why,did they put you in here? I used to sleep in the nude,and get called away.
And I woke up one too many times in family restaurants.
At first,I didn't tell the authorities that I was a traveler.
Then I did once,and then I made the fatal mistake of insisting that I was, and here I am.
So,the pillsdo they help with the headaches? - Headaches? - Yeah.
Before you travel.
No.
My hands go numb.
Oh.
I see.
I figured out you're here to help me.
I mean,that's what we do,right? We bump everything back online.
We first met at stanford when we were freshmen.
Yeah,I went to stanford.
We were both working at this pizza joint.
I was cooking,and lauren was working the front of the house.
So lauren's your wife? sheshe should be.
But,for now she's just the love of my life.
Doesn't she know that you're here? Sadly,no.
She,uhshe has no idea.
I mean,if she did,she'd get me out of here.
Why don't you just,you know,travel out? I would,but I think the sedatives are keeping me grounded.
They watch you swallow them.
So don't pop any if you want to go home.
Now,are you going to help me get out of here? 'Cause I have a plan.
I just need a partner.
How long has he been gone? All day,I think.
It's hard to tell.
It's not like he leaves on the 5:15,you know? I'm sure he's okay.
Except there was blood on the floor,and the last time that happened, he left herewith a bullet in his shoulder.
What else can we do,jack? Can we get some answers some other way? No,thanks.
I was going through garrity's file.
There was a picture of dan as a kid with this guy elliot langley.
He's a scientist that specializes in quantum physics.
- Can we talk to him? - I've been trying.
I can't get a meeting.
At least not in his office.
But I know what he drives.
Thanks,jack.
I used to feelso safe here.
I know the guys who did security for our embassy in bahrain.
Annette,you're still here.
Yes.
You know,katie,if you don't feel safe here,you could always look at another house.
I certainly couldn't live here.
So,jack vasser, father.
Yeah.
I know.
- Really? - Yeah.
It's time.
Well,you did good.
I like theresa.
Big upgrade over the last one.
Yeah.
I don't know about that.
I just finally let go of the idea that I could match it.
- All right.
See ya.
- Okay.
Thanks.
I hope this works.
This ain't pelican bay.
And I was in pelican bay once.

My god! I won't mind.
- Are you okay? - Yeah.
- What's going on? - Oh there was blood on the bathroom floor.
Oh,yeah.
I just I slipped coming out of the shower.
Where did you go? I went back and helped some guy escape from a mental institution.
You put a mental patient on the streets.
No.
Unless you think people who say they can travel through time are crazy.
You met a manwho said he travels? Yeah.
Well,I'm sure he's nuts,but then I thought you were.
His name is evan.
He's desperate to meet this woman.
He calls her the love of his life.

Sure would be nice to have somebodyelse like you around.
Well,there's livia.
Yeah.
Somebody who's a guy,and not really,really hot.
Someone who's been doing this for a while.
Someone who couldgive you some insight.
It's not going to be evan.
Why not? 'Cause he's dead.

He's been getting death threats and he travels with security.
Well,wouldn't want it to be an easy one.

I take it you won't make the wedding.
Did you know that,um you and i were both born during a rare celestial occurrence? Uhno.

Really? Who are you? Uhshe's a friend.
She's one of us.
You can tell by the shoes.
Have you traveled since you got out? No,no,but then again,I just escaped yesterday,so Lauren is married.

Agent richard garrity,formerly of the federal bureau of investigation.
Now deceased.
Where are you going with this,inspector? Why was your name on one of his case files? I'm a research scientist.
I'm sure my name appears in many government files.
How about you just tell me what's going on with my brother, and we can both get on with our day? I'd be glad to if I knew your brother.
Have I done something wrong,officer? is this you? Appears to be.
The kid is dan vasser.
My dad took the picture.
You expect me to remember a picture with a stranger that's 25 years old? Are you going to cite me,inspector,or arrest me? Because I am late for a lecture.
We're not done.
Security detail's heading for the car.
Okay,let's do it.
Maybe you should lose the flowers.
Why?Women love flowers.
It's a little needy.
Oh,I feel needy.

Oh,yeah,you never went to bed before 2:00, and you loved any cocktail that had coconut in it.
- Evan,evan.

It's okay.
He's with me.
- It's all right.
- But she knows me! No,evan,she doesn'T.
Just let it go.
Let it go.
All right? - No! - Come on.
I can help the No,but thank you.
Oh,please,you're my sister.
Sometimes it seems like you break at the touch.
I'm just stressed.
Well,that stress is the number one cause of cancer.
Thanks.
That helps with the stress.
What is wrong,katie? You know,a change of scenery might be nice for you and zack.
Me and zack? And dan,too.
oh,come on.
I didn't say anything you weren't thinking already.
Sell the house? - Insane,I know.
- Do you want a new house? - No.
- It's not the worst idea in the world after what happened here,but dan,the house isn't the problem.
It's you well,it's not you,but what's happening to you.
I just want you back the way you were.
You know,I do,too.
Really? Well,then what aboutthe sedatives?Can we try that? I ran into evan pattison.
"The love of his life" no idea who he was.
It was all just a fantasy.
So he's not a traveler You didn't really believe it,did you? No,no,no.
I guess I wanted to.
What happened to him after that? Well,we convinced him not to jaywalk on market,but what are you working on? That guy who got shot stalking vogel's wife.
Ah,that's four months old.
Yeah.
So why are you working on some? Evan pattison harassed vogel's wife in the morning,gets throw out of a diner.
Then he breaks into their house that evening,so they shot him.
Well,unless you're going to tell me he rose from the grave and is now starring in wicked, I don't see a story,because what you've told misn't new.
He wasn't armed,hugh.
The police thought he was.
The stalker was trying to give lauren vogel a ring.
The police mistook the gift box for a weapon,shot him.
Officers still on leave,pending an investigation.

Quantum information paradox recisited Through a suitable identification of fixed points, event horizons can be plotted in anti-sitter space.
Questions? Yes? What do you know about time travel? That's not today's topic.
Could,could we make it today's topic? It's pretty cool,'cause this stuff is,like,whoo.

Evan.
Evan.
Dan.
Great.
You need help.
You're delusional.
I can't believe it.
Of all the people who should believe me if I could only tell you what I know,you'd stop.
You looked me up,didn't you? In the future.
I just know.
Dan,what's going to happen? It's okay to tell me.
Look,I really can time travel,dan.
What's that? Proof.
Can you play this for me? What are you doing? It's 5:30,september 24.
I had a late meeting at the mayor's office at 4:30, so I'll get back at the office around 6:00.
I'll be away for a half-hour.
Away from where? - The register.
- I can't go there with you.
- Why not? - 'Cause I'm supposed to be dead.
Right.
You stay here.
- Back early? - Yeah.
I forgot my blazer.
Wedding anniversary.
Okay,and the mayor story? Have it for you in an hour.
This is,uh,me and laurena few years back,dancing to "perfidia.
" Happy New Year! 2004 Salsa Competiton It's her.
I met her in college.
I was married to her for 20 years.
About 15 years back,the travels started.
And I tried to live as normal a life as possible.
What a joke.
You're one of us.
I think I mentioned that.
My god,what what causes it? Why are we doing it? I haven't learned much since the first few months.
Except that,uh whoever's pulling our strings is doing it for a reason.
Dan,you're going to change more lives than explorers, scientists,doctors,anyone.
What happened to her,evan? She was killed while we were married,back in '05.
Some guy that I pissed off back there.
And I kept trying to fix it and it kept getting worse.
So you erased your life with lauren on purpose? I just happened to travel once back to the day I first met lauren in college.
And so I changed it so that our paths never crossed.
That's all it takes,really.
Just a little bump.
And just like that,our lives as we knew it deleted.
I didn't care that she wasn't going to be mine, I just wanted her to live again.
And now she has no memory of how happy we were.
I just want one last moment with her.
hello.
Hey,it's me.
Livia.
Evan's the real thing.
Wow,okay.
Well,you better get out of there.
Why? You are on your way up there.
This is how I ended up in the cuckoo's nest.
My old self saw my new self and everything just unraveled from there.
Glad you told me that now.
Should we take the stairs? Yeah.
No.
Dammit,I used to take the stairs to stay in shape,but not every time what are you hoping for,evan? You already tried once,she didn't remember you.
No,I can't accept that.
How could she not remember me?She loved me.
- Because it never happened.
- Yeah,it did happen.
Look,I know it sounds nuts,but I just keep hoping that there's some trace of us,of me.
If I can just activate it.
I kept one of her old rings as a keepsake.
This doesn't end well,evan.
Officer Shoots Supevisor's Stalker I don't care.
I don't want to live past this day,anyway.
Why? Because this world makes no sense to me without her.
he's our mission.
Getting him together with lauren is it.
I don't know,he's way off mission and look at him.
Are we doing the same by helping him? Who are you calling? - My contact at the mayor's office.
- Hello - Megan,this is dan vasser at the register.
- Hi,Dan Yeah,I'm looking for supervisor vogel's schedule for the rest of the day.
I'm thinking about a puff piece.
He'll be at the black orchid for the downtown association cocktail party and then off to a fundraiserin pacific heights.
I owe you,megan.
Thank you.
We need to get him cleaned up.
do you have a plan? Do we ever? No,we wing it.
Hold this for me.
You should tell him what it is you do.
I did.
You think I'd make that same mistake twice? Is henry okay with that? Wouldn't you have been? Yeah yeah,I suppose I would have.
Anything to keep you.
Campaigning is 24/7.
I need you on weekends.
You said it was going to be a lighter schedule this cycle.
Every vote counts,you know that.
Look,I need to talk to scott bray for a minute alone.
Peter,will you? I'm fine.
Thanks.
Excuse me.
I just found this this ring on the floor.
Does this belong to anyone? No.
You sure? Yeah.
Crash and burn.
I'll just take it to lost and found.
Good idea.
Did you go to stanford? Yes.
I vaguely remember now would you like to dance? I don't dance.
Yes,you do.
I remember.
You don't want my feet anywhere near your toes.
If you do,I'll vote for your husband.
I pegged youas smarter than that.
This song.
"Perfidia.
" Just follow my lead,okay? Okay.
You were warned.
It's okay.
I didn't know I could do this.
It must be you.
You're a natural we need a doctor! He's got no pulse! Maybe this is supposed to be evan's day to die,no matter what we do.
Yeah,I guesS.
Just when we thought there were more of us.
Well one of us has to be leaving soon.
Yeah,you think? I don't know why,but I think it's going to be awhile.
I was thinking the same thing.
Holy I remember,this is the first moment that I traveled.
Right when evan died.
I can give you a ride to the airport.
I like the limo.
Uh-huh,cause you can drink dewars in the back seat.
Well,there's a bar and a driver,katie.
I seize opportunity.
I owe josh a call.
Can I tell him that you're considering the house? I'd like to think about it overnight.
I don't mean to exclude dan, it's just that he's not my responsibility.
You and zack,you're my responsibility.
No,we're not.
And I'm raising my son not to head for the hills at the first sign of a problem.
First sign of a problem? The first sign of a problem was months ago.
Dan's not crazy.
Walks like a duck leave now.
And finally,a san francisco power couple is no more.
Earlier today,supervisor vogel and his wife lauren announced they are splitting up.
Hello,dan.
Now you know me.
You met evan pattison.
You knew him? I knew of him.
And you know what I do and what he did? I have my suspicions,yes.
Did he have to diefor me to start? what is happening to me? How did democritus discoveratomic structure half a millennium beforethe atom was even conceived? How did the incas build perfect clay replicas of airplanes in 500 A.
D.
? These temporal anomalies in the historical record needed explanation, so the thurn-tippet group obtained a grant to find time travelers.
To find anomalies and try to account for them.
And that's how we discovered a very select cadre of people.
That do what? What have you been doing for the last six months? Changing realities.
You have an incredible gift,and that's why I've kept my distance recently.
I don't understand.
When anyone,especially people you love,know the truth about you,it puts them at risk.
Imagine having the ability to manipulate a time traveler.
Imagine what some would do to get that ability, which is why I will neveradmit to anyone that I know anything about you.
It's more dangerous than you can ever imagine,and people are watching me.
Who's watching? Who is doing this to me? As far as I can tell,no one is doing anything.
There are others like me,I know that much.
The numbers appear to be dwindling.
The system seems to be breaking down.
You are the last one.
No you're wrong.
There's one more.
Really? Who? I wish I could talk about it.
wise man.
Go get ready for bed.
Okay.
Hey,come here.
Do you know how much I love you? - Yes.
- How much? To the moon and back.
Hey.
I'm sorry I didn't get a chance to say good-bye to annette.
Yeah,I know.
It's usually your favorite part of her visit.
What is that? Evan's notebook.
I'm thinking about starting one myself.
Are you saying? He wasn't crazy,no.
Not entirely anyway.
- He's like you.
- Yeah.
Did you talk to him?What'd he say? I didn't get as much time as I'd like, but he'd been doing itfor 15 years, all the while happily married.
- So he was married? - Yeah.
And he stopped the traveling? I suppose.
you know what this means? The sedatives.
Dan,we can stop this.
I'm,I'm gonna call dr.
Pullen tomorrow.
We can get a prescription and it's what you want,right? katie,the more I find out about this,the more I realize it's not a curse.
It's a calling.
I'm doing something important, maybe even vital, and I don't think I should stop it.
What about getting things back to the way they were? Things aren't going back to the way they were ever,I'm afraid.
I worry for you and I worry for zack.
And I would I'd understand if it became too much for you to bear.
And you'd be only human if you were thinking the same thing.
You said something that first night when you dug up the patio.
Yeah.
You said you'd always come home.
I did.
Where do we stand on that? You still mean it? Yes.
then I'll leave a light on.
katie.
