Hey, it won't be long. We'll be out of the middle of nowhere soon.
Oh, hey, you know, I did a little checking,
and I found something pretty cool in Burlington.
They've got this amazing zoo.
Hey. Come on. Give me back my phone and talk to me, would ya?
It's called the Columbian Park Zoo,
and they say it's one of the best ones in Indiana.
We're moving to San Diego.
I'm pretty sure their zoo blows away the Colum...
whatever one.
Well, I was just looking for something to do while we were there,
and I know how much you love the zoo.
Not without Dad.
Yeah, well...
me too.
Oh, damn it. I missed the turn.
The GPS is out. No signal.
Hey, uh, Elijah, would you get me the Ohio map?
It should be in my purse.
What's this? "Jefferson".
Oh, no. That's nothing.
What do you mean it's nothing?
Could you get that map, please?
- I think it's in there. - Why can't I read it?
I'm just gonna make a U-turn.
It had my name on it.
Don't call the cops on me.
Is that my new school in San Diego?
Mary Ann, why won't you answer me?
Mary Ann.
Can I please see that letter?
Elijah, no, not now.
- Are you okay? - Yeah. Oh, my God.
Oh!
Oh, my God!
What is that?
Elijah, wait! Wait!
Look!
911. What is your emergency?
Uh, there's a plane... a plane crash.
It's, um, in a creek next to the road.
We're on-on Route 24 outside of Dayton.
- Someone's in the cockpit. - It's a small plane.
The pilot's still inside.
- Is he breathing? - Let me check.
- Here. Hold that. Wait, wait here. - No, no.
It's on fire! Get away, get away!
Please, Mary Ann!
Move!
Get away!
Move!
- Okay. Come on. - Get out of there! Please!
Okay.
All right. Okay. Come on. Come on.
We gotta go.
Get out of there!
I got you. I got you.
Get out of there, Mary Ann! Get out of there!
- No, wait. Wait! - Go! Go!
Thank God. Okay.
Thank you. Thank you.
Lieutenant Theodore Cole, Second Squadron.
- You expats? - Uh...
Well, what are you? British? Dutch?
No. We're Americans.
What the heck are you doing in Burma?
This isn't Burma. It's Ohio.
Kid, this is Rangoon. I was just in a... in a dogfight over...
over that ridge.
Over...
You wanna sit down, or...
"Dayton".
I grew up near Dayton.
Oh...
No, it's okay. It's okay.
It's gonna be okay. We're gonna get you to a hospital.
Do you have the phone?
It's gonna be okay. It's gonna be okay.
Miss Whitaker? I'm Sheriff Parker.
Hi.
You mind telling me how you came upon the scene?
Well, we were just, um, coming from back east
and headed to my husband's sister's house in Indiana.
And, just, I mean... Bam.
Now, the pilot, he say anything might give a clue to who he is?
Well, he was in shock.
And he just said that he was...
shot down in Rangoon.
He said he was from World War II.
- That's not possible, is it? - No, of course not.
- Sorry. - Son, I've seen this a lot.
Guys with head injuries convinced they were the Lord Jesus.
And, um, what about the plane?
Can you trace it? There can't be many of those left.
Yeah, that's the problem. No registered tail numbers.
Just so you know, my boys got your car fixed up.
I'm starting a new job in California...
New windows courtesy of Bradford PD for the pretty lady.
- Well, thank you. - Mm-hmm.
Hey, Mary Ann, I'm kinda thirsty.
Can I have some money for the vending machine?
Uh, yeah. Uh...
Uh...
Hey, why don't you see if they'll, uh, take my credit card?
- Thanks. - Yeah.
"Mary Ann".
- Kid calls you by your name? - Mm-hmm.
That a back east thing?
No, it's a stepmom thing.
"Dayton, Ohio".
Hey. Hey. Where am I? And why are all the guards on me?
They think you're a bad guy.
Are you?
No. I was fighting bad guys.
What is this place?
Ohio. Bradford, I think.
So, you're a real soldier?
Yeah, kid.
Bradford?
They shipped me home?
Oh. What in the hell happened? Did I miss Christmas?
Christmas? It's September.
September? No, it's not September.
It's December 24th, Christmas Eve, 1941.
Uh... I gotta get outta here.
They won't let you leave till they know who you are.
Well, I already told you who I am!
I'm Lieutenant Theodore Cole, First American Volunteer Group.
Look, you gotta help me get outta here, kid.
No, no, no. Come on, no.
- Okay. All right. Sorry. I scared... - I'm just trying to help.
I know. I know you are. I know you are.
Look. In-Inside the jacket pocket,
there's a peace offering for you.
Go ahead, go ahead.
Yeah, see?
My wife gave that to me. It's sort of a good luck charm.
Every time before I fly, so that nothing bad happens to me.
She thinks candy brings luck.
"Whiz bar".
Is that, like, some hipster, artisanal candy?
What? No. It's chocolate, kid.
There's this whole thing about taking
candy from people you just met.
So if it's okay, I'll hang on to it and ask my stepmom later.
- Can I ask you a favor? - Hey! You!
Sheriff!
- Hey. - Open the door.
Now, listen very, very closely, okay?
- Are we in Bradford? - Yes. Yeah.
The sheriff, I know him.
And he can help. His name is Simmons.
- Open this door. - You go down to Main Street.
That's where the station is.
You find him and you tell him
that his buddy, Lieutenant Cole, is in trouble, all right?
Promise.
All right. The kid's fine. The kid's fine.
Nothing happened. I didn't do anything.
Hey!
Nothing personal.
He said it was Christmas 1941.
Well, that's what crazy people do, Elijah. They say crazy things.
- What if he's telling the truth? - Well...
I googled Whiz bars. Guess what?
They haven't made these in 30 years.
You took candy from a crazy man?
He's not a crazy man.
Okay, maybe he is, but he's a soldier.
I'm sure of it.
And he needs our help.
Just drive to Main Street. The police station's there.
Elijah, we're supposed to be at your aunt's house by dinner,
and we're already late.
Come on. Why are we in such a rush?
We gotta help him.
What if he still has family?
He shouldn't be alone.
Damn it. Elijah.
All right. Let's move!
We're at the crash site. Keep the pilot locked down.
Nobody talks to him, understood?
We have seven hours to do this, so no screwups.
Bill Kaminski, NTSB.
Tow guy, put down that plane.
This road is closed until further notice.
I'd appreciate if your men would clear the crash site,
ten miles either direction.
Study it all you want. We've done it countless times.
The answer isn't up there.
All your scientific instruments aren't gonna tell us anything new.
The key is him, the pilot.
Well, then I suggest you go get him.
Ten miles? What do you mean they want a ten-mile blockade?
That doesn't even make any sense.
Federal?
Well, ain't that a good use of my taxes.
- Yeah? - Hello.
We are looking for a Chief Simmons.
Simmons? There's no Simmons here. I'm Chief McClarty.
Uh, has there ever been a Chief Simmons?
Not since I've been here. And I've been here a long time.
Right. Okay.
Is there anything that I can help you with?
Uh, no, I think we're all good.
Thank you so much, and sorry to bother you.
Elijah, let's go.
Mary Ann, wait.
Elijah, we're done here.
Hey. Hey, kid, careful.
That is a signed Johnny Bench baseball right there.
- Son of a... - Elijah.
What the hell?
I'm-I'm sorry. Uh, he's, uh, having a rough day.
- Get over here, Elijah. Let's go. - Yeah? Well, join the club.
What did you think you were doing in there?
Look.
- You stole a picture? - Look.
From a police station?
It's him.
- See? - No, it's not him.
Look, Elijah, "1938". This is not him.
It's not possible.
Oh.
Mr. Woodrow, you ready for another...
Nothing personal.
Hey, there's no need for all the muscle.
My boys have the situation in hand.
All due respect to your boys,
but you can go home now. We've got it from here.
If you really respected authority,
you would let me do my job.
This is no longer your job.
How about you put me in touch with the guy in charge of your unit,
- and we can clear all this up. - The guy in charge isn't a guy
and is starting to lose her patience.
Wait.
I really don't know how she fell.
But, I mean, it was really weird,
'cause she called me and she was, like,
"Hey, I'm in the bathtub and I'm wrapped in the curtain, so call 911".
So I was like, "Okay".
Parking lot.
Hey! That's my bike, man!
Scan all the way down.
Not in the sample area.
Uh, sir, we got an anomaly.
Of course we've got an anomaly. This whole thing is an anomaly.
Oh, right.
Hey, sir.
I know it's a... it's a doorway and all,
and we gotta send everything back through.
But in the training,
they did not really tell us what happens if we don't.
It was all "top secret" this and "classified" that, and...
But I'm thinking, now that we're in the field,
and it's just one civil servant to another,
what are the consequences
if we don't put back everything that came?
Just fix the plane.
That can't be him. It's probably his grandfather...
No, it's him.
That's the thing with time travel.
It pulls you to where you belong.
It's like destiny.
Wait in the car, please.
My new school is Jefferson Elementary?
In Burlington?
That's where Aunt Julie lives.
Um...
I thought we were moving to California.
Yeah. Uh...
You're moving to California.
You're abandoning me?
No, I'm not, I'm not abandoning you. I'm...
Look, your Aunt Julie said that Jefferson is a really good school.
There are great schools in California, too.
Why can't I just be with you?
You were always the most important thing to your dad,
and I promised him...
I promised him that I would always do what's best for you.
How is this best for me?
We've been okay...
since...
Have I been too much trouble?
No.
No. No. You haven't been trouble.
Okay? Look...
This isn't about you.
Look, I-I have to give you the best chance you have, okay?
And it's just not with me.
Please don't fight me on this. Please, Elijah.
Okay.
Elijah, everything is gonna be okay.
Your aunt is gonna take really good care of you,
and that's what matters.
But who's gonna take care of you?
I know you don't sleep. I hear you crying.
Hey, it's not your job to take care of me, okay?
Mary Ann!
Oh, my God! Are you okay?
You again.
- You all right? - I told you.
This has to be a sign.
He crashed into us, twice!
Okay.
- Shoot. - We found a picture.
- Is that you? - Elijah, come on.
Where did you get this? Yeah, that's me.
This is Simmons, right here.
Weber, he enlisted right after Pearl Harbor.
O'Hora, Bragdon, Kelly...
- Elijah. No. - See? He's a soldier, Mary Ann.
Where did you get this?
- Elijah! We gotta go. - A real one. He needs our help!
All right. Where were you going?
Well, I gotta... I gotta go home. I gotta get to my wife.
She doesn't know what happened to me. I have to go see her.
I have to tell her.
Come on, please.
- Get in. - Come on, get in the car. Get in!
Come on, let's go!
It's on this street.
Just about a mile up the road after the, uh...
Everything's changed.
There. There.
- Right there. That's my house. - Okay.
Stop, stop. Stop right here.
Pauline?
Pauline? Hello?
Hello? Is there anybody here?
Pauline? Anybody home?
Excuse me, can I help you?
I'm looking for Pauline.
I'm her husband.
Her husband?
Aren't you a little young to be her husband?
I'm sorry. What is this about?
Oh, uh, my friend, he was, um,
in an accident, and he's a... he's...
He's an old friend of Pauline's.
Oh, really? That's nice.
Ever since the kids moved away, she gets so few visitors.
Would... Would you like to say hello?
She's alive?
Yes, of course.
I'm her nurse.
Pauline's at her pottery class,
but she should be back any minute now.
You're more than welcome to stay.
- I'll go make us some tea. - Thank you.
Of course.
I think I'll wait outside.
What is it?
It's, uh...
It's his obituary.
He crashed in Burma,
and he was shot and killed while trying to evade capture.
The crash has caused delays in all directions to and from Dayton,
as authorities begin their manhunt.
- The pilot, a World War II... - We're on TV.
... reenactor named Clarence Woodrow...
What is this about? I'm calling the police.
No.
- Someone's coming. - They're here for you. Go!
- Maybe we should talk to them! - Go, Lieutenant!
Uh...
Back, back.
Lieutenant Cole, please exit the house.
Lieutenant Cole, please come out now.
Go ahead. Pull it up. Pull it up.
Inside.
Lieutenant Cole. Lieutenant Cole.
I need you to just stay calm and listen to me.
We're just here to fix all this and make sure
we get you back to where you belong.
That was a seismic tremor
caused by you being here, by what happened to you.
You came here through something called a Rift.
A what?
Basically, Lieutenant, you have traveled into the future.
Now, do you want to go back to see your wife,
back to the way things were?
You can, but we need to hurry.
What are you talking about?
The Rift you came through is still open.
- We can send you back to Pauline. - No!
- It'll be as if you didn't miss a thing. - Elijah, stop!
No! You died in Burma. We saw your obituary. Come on, go!
- Lieutenant! - Come on, get in.
- Stand down! - Elijah, don't!
You need to trust us!
Get in!
- Get in. Come on. Get in. - Elijah, get back here.
- Come on! - Elijah.
We're just here to make things right. Lieutenant, open the door!
Wait, you can't shoot him! Elijah, get out.
Why is there only two pedals?
'Cause they're different now! Come on!
- I don't know what to do! - Step on it!
Elijah, get out of the...
Go! Go!
Don't shoot!
Get somebody in the air! Now!
They're gaining on you! Go, go!
- Go! - Got it.
Hang on.
Cole!
Look out!
- Cole! - Just trust me.
Where are you going?
There's an old moonshine road up here that leads to Miller's River.
I don't see a road!
Like I said, just trust me.
Now, hang on.
We did it! Yeah! Whoo!
- No! No! - Come on. No, no!
Aw!
You okay, kid?
That was epic!
It was, like, a million to one, and we still got away.
Well, I had a hell of a copilot.
- Is something wrong? - No.
Just across the river. I think it's still there.
Come on!
What is that?
The place my wife and I last danced before I shipped out.
Artie Shaw played right there.
But it doesn't matter.
It's all wrecked anyway.
Never even said goodbye.
What?
It's a dumb superstition.
I thought that by never saying goodbye,
it meant that I was never really gone.
So I could never get hurt.
It always worked... till it didn't.
Hey, what did that say, anyhow? My obit.
What happened to me?
You crashed and you were shot and killed trying not to be captured.
And they wanna send me back, huh?
Maybe I should let 'em.
I don't belong here, kid.
And you, you belong with your mom.
Stepmom. And she doesn't want me anyway.
She just wants to dump me off with my aunt.
We've both got nowhere to go.
Come on.
Let's keep moving before they find us.
What's the point anyway? Me staying here.
Pauline moved on.
She lived a whole life, a happy life, with somebody else.
But you can't die.
Maybe I have to.
No. You can't!
And why is it so important to you, kid?
Why can't you just let this go?
My dad.
He died in a war, too.
In Afghanistan, last April.
I'm sorry, kid.
Really, I am.
But this world has nothing for me.
What...
What if there is a way for you to get your life back with Pauline?
The life that the other guy took from you?
Knock it off, kid.
No.
What if you did go back in that Rift, but you don't get killed?
What if we changed things?
What if this time when you crashed, the bad guys can't hurt you?
Like, if you had a better gun. Or some Kevlar.
Kev-what?
It's like a bulletproof vest.
My dad told me all about this stuff.
We can get you some of it.
This is it.
This has to be why the Rift brought you here,
to give you a second chance.
What are we doing here?
Shouldn't we be out looking for Elijah?
Shouldn't we be scouring the town?
We are, but there is a far quicker way to find him, and that's you.
This soldier is a man out of time,
and your son is his best shot at escape.
And you're the only one who knows that kid.
So if anyone's gonna be able to find him, it is you.
No, I'm not helping you. You're liars.
You're gonna send that soldier back to die.
While I sympathize,
you have to start trusting me more than the lieutenant right now,
because there is far more at stake than you realize.
Yeah, well, I've spent some time with Cole. He's a good man.
I wish I could say the same thing about you.
Well, then I guess it's time you got to know me better.
We might have time, if you want... to try and see your wife...
in case...
You're wrong about this plan?
It'll work, but, you know, in case...
No. Thanks, kid.
I don't wanna see her now.
Because of the risk 'cause they might be waiting for you?
Because she moved on.
You got all that from a few pictures?
How can you be sure that she moved on?
On our first date, I took Pauline to the movies.
Bringing Up Baby.
I bought her a box of Cracker Jacks.
And the prize inside, it was this...
this little green four-leaf clover pin.
You know what that symbolizes?
Good luck?
Right.
She said it was a sign that we would always have good luck...
and that we would always be together.
So when we got married and we got that house,
the first thing that she did was walk in the door
and nail that pin to the mantel.
When I was there earlier, I checked.
It was gone.
She probably pulled it out decades ago.
She doesn't want to remember me.
What are they doing?
Restoring the plane to exactly what it was so it can fly again,
and we can send the pilot back just as he came.
Why? The past is fine.
History hasn't changed.
Mary Ann, this is not about changing history.
Take a look at this.
1971.
Sylmar, California.
A devastating earthquake of 6.5 on the Richter scale
kills 65 people, causes a half a billion in damage.
A Rift.
2009, the Cataño oil refinery disaster.
A 50-mile-radius explosion, destroyed a city.
Also a Rift.
Global catastrophes throughout history
that you thought were accidents or natural disasters
were caused by the same type of event that brought the pilot here.
If we can get whatever came through back in time just right,
the Rift closes and no one gets hurt.
Now, what about your boy?
He's got my phone.
Kid, slow down. What is this place?
It's called an Army Surplus store.
I saw it when we drove through.
They should have everything you'll need.
Kevlar, night vision...
Night vision?
So you can, you know, see at night.
Yeah, the name kind of says it all. You have all that stuff now?
You have no idea.
You can pick the lock, right?
What do I look like, a cat burglar?
I mean, maybe I can try and jimmy this open.
This is all steel, kid.
So, uh, just how many of these things have you dealt with?
More than most people feel comfortable knowing about.
And, uh, how many times have you failed?
More times than most people would feel comfortable knowing about.
Bill thinks it's because we missed something,
like a button on a shirt or a cuff link, something tiny.
Wait. So if you don't think it's about
sending them back the way they came...
It doesn't always work when we do that.
Well, what do you think?
I think the Rift has a will.
I think what it does, it does for a reason.
Every time someone comes through,
takes us a while to track them down.
Three hours, five hours, seven hours.
But the Rift always stays open for exactly 11.
So you think something is supposed to happen in that time?
I think something needs to happen.
What? What does Cole need to do?
I have no idea.
Come on! Hurry! Hurry!
Let's go! Let's go! Let's go!
Come on!
Be careful.
Who are these guys?
Eyes on target. Set her down.
Go, go, go!
- There they are. - Wait, wait.
Let me talk to him. He's scared, and he's got my kid.
Go.
No, Mary Ann, no! You don't understand what we're doing!
No, sweetheart, no, you don't understand. Look, neither of you do.
I get it, miss. They want me to go back,
and I'm more than willing to do so.
But I got some conditions.
I need a weapon, and I need some protection. Some, uh...
- Kevlar! - "Kevlar", that's right.
I'm a fighter, all right, Mary Ann?
- I'm gonna beat this thing. - No, Cole, you can't.
You can't fight. You can't do any of that.
Wha...
That thing up there. Look, it's happened before.
And they say if you don't go back
just exactly the way you came through...
that... everything within ten miles of here dies.
So that means you can't bring anything back.
You can't change anything.
No.
No, they're lying to you!
- Hey. - They have to be!
I know you wanted to save him, okay?
So did I. And...
But this is the way it has to be.
You have to go through. I'm sorry.
I'm so sorry.
Destiny's a son of a bitch, ain't it?
Wait. Wait a second. Wait. Wait.
- There might be more. - I'm sorry?
This thing, it brought you back not just here to this time,
but it brought you back to this place, to your home.
What if this Rift or whoever made it or whatever it is,
what if it does these things for a reason?
What reason could that possibly be?
I...
I think I know.
Five minutes.
Hi, Pauline.
It's me, Pauline.
Teddy?
Yeah.
What...
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry that I let a stupid superstition get the better of me.
I'm sorry that I never said goodbye.
And I know you moved on. I know you forgot about me.
But I needed you to know...
that I love you.
I always have and I always will.
Oh, Teddy.
I'm sorry. I don't have very much time.
I gotta go now.
Teddy.
Pauline.
Let's cut a rug one more time, huh?
What do you say?
- Oh, Teddy, I can't dance anymore. - It's okay. I've got you.
I got you.
Goodbye, Pauline.
Cole.
Hey, kid.
You got a good head on your shoulders, kid. You're gonna be fine.
All right?
Thank you for everything.
I gotta have a moment with your stepmom.
California, huh? It's a nice place.
- Yeah. - I trained out in Riverside back in '39.
It's a big state, you know.
Gets lonely.
So he told you.
Yeah. He told me... about you dropping him off in Indiana.
I-I can't.
After I lost Steve, I...
I can't take care of myself.
How am I supposed to...
Every time I look at Elijah, all I see is him.
You know, the whole thing about
how this is all supposed to be for a reason?
Yeah.
I think you're half right that I came back
to this spot because Pauline is here,
but I also came back to this time because you are.
What are you talking about?
Look, think about it.
A pilot killed in combat meets a woman who lost a pilot of her own.
That's not a coincidence, Mary Ann.
That's a message, a message from your husband.
Saying goodbye to Pauline was what I was supposed to do.
- Well, what am I supposed to do? - I can't tell you that.
But I'm pretty sure you'd know what your husband's telling you.
Ready, Lieutenant?
Yes, sir.
This should do it.
That covers everything that came through with you.
Good luck.
Oh, jeez. Wait.
Hey, kid.
I hate to do this, but I'm gonna need that Whiz bar back.
Are you kidding me?
- You gave him something? - It's just candy.
Come on, kid.
It's okay. Go ahead. Give it to him.
Come on. We don't have much time.
On the way back... I got hungry.
Uh...
W-We need everything?
Okay, so... so we pack up, and we evacuate or...
No, it's too late.
We'll never make it back to the minimum safe distance.
It's okay.
I'm still going up. This is gonna work.
The Rift, it's not about putting back some Whiz bar.
I did what it wanted me to do... and so will you.
Don't worry. We got this.
Five minutes to closure.
Clear it out. Let's go.
Thank you again.
No.
Two minutes.
Ninety seconds to Rift closure.
One minute.
It's gonna be okay.
- I love you. - I love you.
We're gonna be okay.
Are you okay? He did it.
