Today, we're going to work on releasing your worry,
pain, and fear.
(THUDS)
(EXHALES)
I'd like you to close your eyes
and picture the beautiful white light
that is your life force.
Now, we need your chakra to flow freely.
It needs to move to fight stagnation.
While I am doing this,
I want you to close your hand around this amethyst.
I'd like you to clear your mind and feel its energy.
And I'd like you to do something different
from our previous sessions, Donna.
I'd like you to hold that crystal in your right hand
for the rest of the day.
All day?
DEBBIE: As much as you can.
That is the strongest crystal I have.
It will protect you
and push away all negative energy.
Hold it tight.
Do not let it go.

I chose marigolds for this week's meeting.
They're not the prettiest posy in the grass,
and some people think they smell like shit.
But damn it, they're resilient.
Just like all of you are resilient.
So today, we get to choose what's pretty
and what smells nice.
And I know this flower thing has become a bit of a ritual.
But if you think about it,
everything we do from birth certificate
to death certificate could be defined
as some kind of ritual.
And the certificate thing is funny to me
because if our life is a story,
the government gets to write our first
and last page.
Which is a bit bureaucratic for my taste,
but we get to write the best parts.
So today, I wanna talk about the positive things
that cancer has brought to our outlook.
I want us to share the wisdom that we've learned from living
with the disease.
For me, I've learned a lot about time.
I used to think that livin' a long life
would make me happy.
But now I'm convinced
that quantity has nothing over quality.
We will stand and we will fight,
but when our time comes, it's okay to let go.
We were born to let go.
Now enough out of me.
Who would like to share?
I'll go.
(DOOR OPENS)
So, uh, I used to let everything get to me.
(DOOR CLOSES)
-And-- -Excuse me, Stacy.
(FOOTFALLS APPROACHING)
Can I help you?
My doctor said I should join this meeting.
What time did your doctor say the meeting started?
12:30.
It's 12:38.
In this meeting, we respect each other's time.
What's your name?
Donna.
Donna, I'm Linda.
Would you like to join our meeting?
This just feels like a mistake.
I'm just gonna go.
LINDA: Wait.
Were you recently diagnosed?
Yes.
It was last week.
Well, you're welcome to stay.
This is a safe place if you wanna share.
I can see that you're under a lot of stress.
We'd be interested to hear what's on your mind.
It's bone cancer, in my hand.
I felt pain for over a year.
I thought it was arthritis.
Osteosarcoma,
that's what I have.
That's what Tom has.
Donna, you're in the right place.
We're all fighters here.
And we're in your corner.
I promise you that.
So, okay, so the other day,
this guy tells me that he's attracted to gap teeth.
And I was like,
"When the hell did the Gap start selling teeth?"
Say, why does everyone always say "Count Dracula"?
There's only one of him.
You like country music?
Well, George Straight?
Not what I heard.
Say, you think anyone ever called Hitler a grammar Nazi?
So, I used to love hot dogs.
(DOOR OPENS)
-Rishi Azmi. -He left--
Please don't step on my jokes.
(DOOR CLOSES)
Best food in the world until I found out--
NURSE TEX: The doctor's ready, Rishi.
One second.
Until I found out how they're made.
It's actually pretty messed up.
-Oh, yeah? -RISHI: Yeah.
They use zero dog, none.
Isn't that fucked up?
Are you done, Mr. Dangerfield?
-Oh, hey, do you have a light? -I don't smoke.
Me neither.
(DOOR OPENS)
I'm gonna burn down the hospital.
-That's a new one. -It's not a joke.
(DOOR CLOSES)
(WHEELS WHIRRING)
Are you Donna Walker?
I'm Sam.
I know about your condition.
Are you a patient?
No.
I'm a scientist.
And, as I was saying,
I know about the advanced osteosarcoma in your hand.
How?
'Cause I've been looking for somebody just like you.
Someone with bone cancer?
SAM: Exactly.
Look, I've developed a new treatment.
It's radical,
but the data is uncommonly conclusive.
What does that mean?
It means I think I can help you.
Do they know you're here?
No, I just wanted to stop by and give you my contact.
I know the severity of your condition
is most likely gonna require amputation,
and I just wanted to give you an option.
And it looks like you're already seeking
an alternative treatment, huh?
So, call me if things get bad.
(♪♪♪)
Hey, anytime.
DR. SCHULTZ: It's a wonderful time for prosthesis.
Advancements are off the charts and more happening every day.
Um, but the first thing we need to do is schedule this surgery,
the sooner the better.
Now, this procedure is called a trans-radial amputation,
and this surgery leaves the elbow
and most of your arm intact,
which makes recovery easier
and also makes it more likely that you're gonna be able
to use your arm even after the amputation.
I-- I can't lose my hand.
You cannot keep it, Donna.
The cancer will most certainly spread
and you do not want that.
Trust me.
Look, we can get you in this week,
but this cannot wait.
The good news is that the cancer is localized, for now.
You'll make a full recovery.
You'll lead a good life.
You're one of the lucky ones, Donna.

DONNA (ON PHONE): How?
Well, it's not exactly Fort Knox.
Like I said, I've been looking for someone like you.
Someone like me? What does that mean?
SAM (ON PHONE): Your cancer is localized and it's curable.
So long as it remains that way.
Which yours has.
DONNA (ON PHONE): How do you know that?
Because I'm lookin' at your current X-ray right now.
DONNA (ON PHONE): Jesus.
Hmm.
Look, this is a rare opportunity for us both.
Your condition is unique.
I can treat you tonight.
If you can get here, I'm ready for you.
How do I know you're not some maniac?
SAM (ON PHONE): You don't.
Look, just bring a gun, bring a sword.
Do whatever you gotta do to feel safe, okay?
But you gotta come alone.
Why alone?
SAM (ON PHONE): Because this is sensitive research.
I don't know you.
I've put a great deal of work into this.
And believe me,
I'm as invested in your cure as you are.
All I ask is your discretion.
DONNA (ON PHONE): This keeps getting worse.
SAM (ON PHONE): You're gonna lose your hand in two days.
Unless you believe in the power of that crystal.
I'd say I'm your best bet.
I'll text you my address.

But I did not shoot the deputy.
What?
Um, never mind.
Yes, I am a scientist.
I know it's a lot to take in.
Are you gonna hurt me?
SAM: No.
Donna, you see all these machines?
They're all here to help you.
That's the creepiest thing anyone's ever said to me.
See that machine there?
I do. What is it?
It's a quantum dislocator.
DONNA: Mm-hmm.
Uh, what exactly does a quantum dislocator do?
It breaks down carbon-based objects,
which is virtually everything,
and it shrinks them to their atomic state.
What?
You familiar with string theory?
-Only from internet dates. -SAM: Okay.
String theory suggests that there are multiple universes
existing all at the same time all around us, right,
and inside us.
Which makes sense when you consider the fact
that everything we know in this universe
has come from something smaller than an atom.
Okay. And what is it gonna do to me?
Well, it's gonna transfer your particles
from one universe to another,
essentially making molecules in your hand dimensional travelers.
-How? -SAM: Okay.
That's hard to put into words, but see the math up here?
I do.
That equation is the key.
Key to what?
That appliance.
The quantum dislocator.
Essentially, it generates an artificial black hole,
microscopic in size,
and totally safe when contained
in the osmium casing of the dislocator.
This is crazy.
I'm-- I'm not gonna send my hand to a foreign dimension.
You see those guys?
(SQUEAKING)
I see rats.
Yeah.
They also had cancer.
Each one of these guys
have had their particles successfully dislocated,
and then relocated,
and upon return, they were sans cancer.
How?
Don't know.
But it seems as though
the disease just doesn't travel well.
Or at all.
Do you have proof?
SAM: Of course.
Watch.

There's 12-year-olds making

Look, I don't mean to be an asshole,
but this is all pretty unbelievable.
Yeah.
It's good to be skeptical.
In fact, it's mandatory for survival.
You don't have to do this.
I, uh, just was trying to give you an alternative.
It's your hand, it's your choice.
What's the worst that can happen?
Well, worst thing is if I'm full of shit,
you still have cancer and they cut your hand off.
What's the best that can happen?
Well, tomorrow you get a second opinion.
You say it's urgent, you get a scan.
Comes back clean, we know it worked.
But you need to make 'em think it happened naturally.
Why's that?
Because I'm not ready.
And this isn't exactly legal.
And it's not totally abnormal for cancer to cure itself.
It's rare, but it does happen.
Say it's the reiki.
That could be your story.

Don't want anything gettin' out.
How long is this gonna take?
Uh, process is instantaneous.
But the machine takes a couple seconds
to run its cycle.
Am I gonna feel anything?
Yeah, you'll likely go numb.
But I was unable to confirm that with my rat friends.
(SQUEAKING)
So, it might suck?

I couldn't afford to.
There's just so many things I wanna do.
But, you know, I have to manage my energy.
Change my expectations a little and stay focused.
I knew I had cancer before they even told me.
I could feel it.
But when they said I had to lose my breast,
it changed things.
How did it make you feel?
I was pissed.
But I think I'm...
I think I'm also...
...afraid.
I haven't allowed myself to be that in a long time.
LINDA: It's okay to be afraid.
It's brave to be afraid.
It's actually smart.
Anyone who goes through this is facin' a big change.
How we deal with the change is what matters.
Donna, do you have anything you'd like to share with us
about your experience this week?
I wasn't sure if I should come back after last time.
Hey, you're welcome here.
You belong here if you wish to.
Well, my cancer's in remission.
Really?
I don't believe it myself, actually.
They're still being safe and they're testing me weekly.
But as of now, they're saying that the cancer's undetectable.
Donna, that's terrific news.
Congratulations from everyone.

Nope.
Me neither. I don't even know where I got this.
So I have some questions.
Okay, so let's do it.
Maybe I have some answers.
Okay.
Well, it seems you've cured cancer.
Why are we keeping this a secret?
Frankly because that was not my intention.
Okay.
I'm a quantum scientist, not an oncologist,
so the curing of cancer was a side effect of my research.
There's still a missing piece.
Okay, so then why did you practice on rats with cancer?
Because they were the only thing I can get in the quantities
I needed.
Quantities? From who?
Uh, they are ethically sourced, if that's what you're implying.
No, it's just the mammalian genetics lab.
They work with big corporations.
Big orders, I...
Just-- I don't know, I could have--
I could have got a couple healthy models, but--
-Models? -SAM: Yes.
That's what they call mice that hurt.
Bred for experimentation.
DONNA: Mm-hmm.
And pet store rats are riddled with cancer,
but I would have to pretend to be a snake farmer,
or something.
That's just too complicated.
You're a weird dude, Sam.
-That's what they tell me. -DONNA: Yeah?
Who tells you?
Socialized human beings.
You don't know any socialized humans.
(SQUEAKING)
DONNA: So, what's this big missing piece?
Evidence.
I need the molecule transfer to occur
in a measurable interval.
What?
(CHUCKLES)
The machine we used for your procedure,
it's housed in one unit, right?
So that means, like, the entrance and the exit,
they exist right on top of each other.
Which is an effective design, but I didn't, um,
account for the rate in which
the molecule transfer would occur.
Um, you familiar with Planck time?
I have a feeling I'm about to be.
Okay.
Um, Planck time, or Planck distance,
it's the shortest unit of measurement known
to modern science, right?
So, the transfer occurs right now
in about one and a half Plancks,
and that's imperceptible.
Now, I need to make it percebtible.
Okay. How?
By moving the goalposts.
Right?
By separating the gates with enough distance,
from entrance to exit,
we can potentially gain enough Planck
to achieve a quarter-second travel time.
Okay, so how far apart do the gates have to be?
My math is correct, which usually is
17½ miles.
One of the gates is right here in this room.
Looks like you can fit a person through that.
That's the point.
Your procedure was a success.
Now it's time to send a whole human being.
And in that quarter-second travel time,
the absence of mass will be recorded,
and that will be the final piece.
I'm pretty sure that can be faked.
Yeah, but eliminating cancer can't be.
What are you saying?
I'm sayin' I need another subject.
One with cancer,
where the disease is spread throughout the body.
Preferably a terminal case.
Why?
There's always a risk involved with anything,
so better to use a person who had no option.
Just in case.
And are you sure you have everything ready to go?
SAM: Yeah.
Worked on the rats, worked on you.
Never been more certain.
Now if we can help a person in need,
all the better.
I'm guessing you already have someone in mind.
I do, Rishi Azmi.
You know him.
He's about to get some bad news.
No one likes the doctor's office,

Rishi, we have your results,
and it appears that the treatment
has been ineffective.
We've detected new swellings in the liver
and pancreas.
Have you been feeling increased abdominal pain?
I-- I don't know. It's about-- about the same.
Patients often develop an increased pain tolerance
as the leukemia progresses.
It's a natural reaction.
This...

pretty much tell us that you are now in stage four

How much longer do I have?

With leukemia, it's tricky.
People can live for years.
How much longer do I have?
But yours is progressing pretty radically.
I don't wanna create any false hope.
I would say within a year.
Though I do recommend that we continue immunotherapy.
Does anyone here have cancer?
Cancer? Anyone?
No? Don't be shy.
No one?
Uh, just me, I guess.
Yeah. Yeah. I know. It sucks.
Uh, it-- it's okay, though. It's okay.
You know, there's-- there's pros and cons,
just like anything in life.
You know, the best part about having cancer
is that I got a whole goddamn career out of it.

Come in.
(DOOR BUZZES, OPENS)
(CONTINUES TYPING)
Hey, Sam?
(SAM CONTINUES TYPING)
DONNA: Hey.
This is Rishi.
Rishi, Sam.
SAM: Hey, Rishi.
Really nice to meet you.
Thank you for coming here this evening.
I appreciate it.
Thanks for, uh, stalking me.
Hmm.
All right, what's your deal?
What are we doin' here?
Uh, well.
I was gonna give you the rundown on the way over,
if that would be okay?
To where? I thought we're here.
SAM: No, we are. I'm sorry.
This is the exit gate.
And we need to get you to the entrance gate.
Entrance of what exactly?
The quantum dislocator.
That's right. The quantum dislocator.
Yeah, Donna mention that.
Look, is this-- is this some kind of scam?
This feels really fucking shady.
I can explain everything.
There's no pressure.
I just wanted to do it on the way over there.
Fine.
It's not because I trust you.
Great!
Well, Donna,
I'm gonna need you to stay here.
Wait. Stay here? Why?
We don't want him to come through the thing
and be alone.
You'll be here to greet him.
Cool?
All right, well, I'm gonna set the timer for, uh,
35 minutes from now.
Okay. Got it.
(VEHICLE WHOOSHES)
Does it hurt?
No.
The whole procedure will last a fraction of a second.
You won't feel a thing.
Isn't that what happened to Veruca Salt?
Actually, uh, it was Mike Teevee.
I get him confused, too.
I think I should mention that you're gonna have
to take off all your clothes.
Excuse me?
Yeah.
(SIGHS) All right.
Well, then what the fuck am I supposed to wear
when I get out the other side?
I'll have Donna set up with something
until I get back with your clothes.
I mean, what are you worried about?
I'm sure she's seen it anyway.
(♪♪♪)
(VEHICLE HALTS, BRAKES SCREECH)
(ENGINE WHIRRS)
Cozy little dump.
Ready?
Sure.
(DOOR OPENS, CLOSES)
Welcome to the entrance gate.
This is the A-frame.
(A-FRAME BUZZING)
Does it always make that sound?
SAM: Yeah. Pretty much.
I've been callin' it "snoring".
It gets more intense when the cycle is initiated.
You wanna have a look inside?
(DOOR DEPRESSURIZES AND OPENS)
(A-FRAME BUZZING CONTINUES)
This is your camera.
Down here...
(STEPS)
...is your atomic scale.
What is that?
It measures relative atomic mass.
Or, in our case, the absence of it.
Why do you need a camera and a scale?
To record the experiment.
Okay, for who?
SAM: For us.
You're the first one going through.
What? I thought Donna already did this.
Well, Donna's procedure was on the prototype.
-Prototype? -SAM: Yeah.
Well, what the fuck is this?
This is the refined application.
It's essentially the same as the prototype, it's just bigger.
Essentially the same?
It's exactly the same.
Do you think I'm an idiot?
This is fucking stupid.
Look, Rish.
You are stage four, trendin' in the wrong direction.
And I know you're receiving treatment.
But it's not gonna help you.
This, this is your cure.
Do it for Donna.
Probably not.

DONNA (ON PHONE): Rishi, hey, what's up?
RISHI (ON PHONE): You lied to me.
What?
No, what are you talking about?
Have you seen this fucking spaceship?
No.
RISHI (ON PHONE): Yeah, exactly.
All right, I-- I'm-- I'm not doing this.
That guy's a fucking creep.
DONNA (ON PHONE): Look, Rishi.
Sam's the only reason I still have my hand.
Okay, look, I'm happy for you.
I'm happy. But this is not just my hand.
If something goes wrong, my whole ass is fried.
And-- and, you know, all my material dies with me.
And I can't risk that.
DONNA (ON PHONE): No, Rishi? Rishi?
I'm-- I'm sorry.
(♪♪♪)
(LIGHTS)
(TAKES A DRAG)
(DOOR OPENS)
Look, I'm-- I'm sorry about the Donna thing.
I wish there was more transparency.
You don't have to do this. I'll take you back.
But you really shouldn't be smoking that in your condition.
(TAKES A DRAG)
Fuck it, I'm dead anyway.
(DOOR CLOSES)
(MICROPHONE FEEDBACK)
Okay, you hear me?
(A-FRAME BUZZING)
Rishi, say somethin' if you can hear me.
Why did the chicken enter the quantum dislocator?
(A-FRAME BUZZING)
I don't know. Why?
To get to the other side.
Come on, keep up, dumb ass.
Okay, so...
(CLEARS THROAT)
It's gonna initiate in 10 seconds.
(A-FRAME BUZZES)
Do I need to do anything?
No.

Good morning.
I made you breakfast.
Fuck you!
Okay.
Suit yourself.
And I'm not exactly sure what this is,
but it's not Rishi.
Actually, I don't know

(DOOR OPENS)
Can I help you?
Are you Samuel Dunn?
Yes, I am.
I'm Detective Larson. Missing Persons Unit.
I'd like to ask you a few questions.
Okay. About what?
About a missing person.
Right.
DETECTIVE LARSON: Can I come in?
Certainly. Uh...
(CLEARS THROAT)
Can I get you a coffee or something?
No, thank you.
Mr. Dunn,
do you know a woman named Donna Walker?
Uh, yes, I do.
How about a Rishi Azmi?
Rishi Azmi? No.
DETECTIVE LARSON: He's been missing for two weeks.
And you've been linked to his disappearance.
By who?
That's confidential.
When was the last time you saw Donna Walker?
Uh, two or three weeks ago.
She's havin' health issues.
She's-- it's emotional rollercoaster.
This is Rishi Azmi.
I've never seen that guy in my life.
Is he an actor or something?
What do you do for a living, Mr. Dunn?
I'm a quantum physicist.
So you do what exactly?
I experiment with quantum mechanics.
Theorize, write papers.
Trying to push the effort forward
from my little corner of the universe.
(SAM SCRUNCHING)
Okay.
Okay?
Is that it?
I'll be in touch.
Cool.

Sir, we're closed.
Are you Linda Dixon?
Do I know you?
I think we have someone in common.
(♪♪♪)
What's going on?
I don't know.
You just seem off.
So, is everything all right?
Well, I'm sorry if I'm not playing up to your standards.
WALTER: Oh, okay. I'm-- I'm not saying that.
I'm just saying...
I'm saying you seem different.
So, please tell us. What's up?
DONNA: What's up?
Why don't you tell me, maestro?
SONIA: Donna.
No, I mean, if Walter thinks I suck, why not just say so?
We're here to rehearse.
You're wasting our time.
Why you acting like--
Seriously? You're gonna-- Okay, you know what?
-Shit. -SONIA: What?
-Fine. Okay. -DONNA: No, no, no, no.
Sonya, I told you. I'm not doing this. Right?
Waste our fucking time? No. I don't wanna do this.
All right?
Call me when you want to rehearse. Right? I'm out.
Have fun. Okay? Bye.
Donna!
(PHONE RINGING)
LINDA (ON PHONE): Hi, Donna.
Are you at the salon?
LINDA (ON PHONE): Yes.
Okay. I'm coming.
Donna!
Look, I made a mistake.
I told Rishi we're safe.
And it cost him his life.
I have to live with that forever.
I can't let you do the same thing.
It's not your choice.
Sam healed you.
I'd like to try it myself.
It was different for me.
I didn't have to go into that fucking--
Whatever he's calling it.
The A-frame.
And like I said, he fixed it.
He's lying to you!
He's not.
There's proof.
Proof?
This is so fucked up.
If this goes wrong, it's over.
It's over for me either way.
Easy choice.
What about your daughter?
And your granddaughter?
I'm sorry, Donna, but I'm doing this.
Sam has nothing to gain by killing me.
He's as invested as I am.
You're fucking wrong!
You're just data to him.
I have to get back to work.
(♪♪♪)
(GROANS)
(PHONE RINGS)
Donna, I wanna get out in front of this with you.
What did you tell Linda?
I told her the same thing that I told you.
Only I backed it up with proof.
Fuck your proof!
And by the way, are you following me?
Well, I'm not exactly stalking you,
but I, uh, I did clone your phone.
(WHIRRING)
Oh my God.
You're such a fucking creep.
Okay.
Well, it was nice talkin' to you.
Um, check your inbox.
(KISSES)
Ciao.
Fuck!
(GRUNTS)
Okay,
It is October 27th, 2024.
This is Meatball.
Meat is about to successfully travel
through the full-scale dislocator,
the A-frame,
into a quantum parallel and land back in my lab
approximately 17½ miles from here.
After the sequence begins--
It should take roughly three seconds
to complete the journey,
where Meatball will find her favorite meal waiting
for her.
(MEATBALL MEOWING)
She's excited.
I'll take that as you're ready.
Okay.
All right, Meat.
Phew.
Okay.
Ah, yeah, time to initiate the cycle.
(KEYPAD BEEPING)

Make yourself at home.
Can I get you anything?
Donna.
What a pleasant surprise.
I'm not talkin' to you.
I'm here for her.
Fine by me.
(COMPUTER BEEPS IN BACKGROUND)
And I'm going with you this time.

Donna, what are you doin'?
Donna, open the door.
I knew you fucked up somewhere.
What?
What are you talking about?
Tell me about the cat in your little video.
What?
Because it's not the same one that was in your apartment.
Yes, it is.
Sorry, the cat in the video is a female.
(MEATBALL MEOWS)
She's excited.
The one with the unclipped nuts?
That's a male.
I learned that much in veterinarian school.
Just forget about the cat.
This will save Linda's life.
Yeah, if it works.
It works.
Cool, you're going first.
You don't even know the cycle code.
Is it not 67900?
That was in your video too, genius.
By the way, my cancer's back.
So, I guess you're not God after all.
Donna, let me out of here.
Donna, open the fucking door!
Nope.
This is--
Fine.
I can't--
I can't go through with my fucking clothes on.
Then strip, playboy, 'cause this is happening.

LINDA: Today I wanna talk about acceptance.
And when I say acceptance, I don't mean surrender.
Fuck that.
I mean accept the good in your life
despite the circumstances.
You can hate the disease,
you can hate the treatment,
but accept that you're here to do something positive.
It doesn't matter how much time you have.
A ticking clock
only makes the effort more daring.
It is our job to be bold and to survive the day.
Because that's the most valuable thing there is,
money can't buy tomorrow.
If I've learned one thing
it's that control is a life-suckin' illusion.
So, let's spend our time with purpose
and intent.
Because whatever happens next
is none of our fuckin' business.
