you so much

2:17

for all your

2:20

help. There are

2:23

kids in this

2:25

world who are

2:28

different. Special. They

2:31

fell through a

2:34

portal and got

2:37

lost in the

2:40

80s. And now

2:43

their time is

2:46

running out. What's

2:49

that supposed to

2:51

mean? Oh, that's

2:54

not waste time,

2:57

shall we? And

2:59

speaking of time,

3:02

how is 1989

3:05

treating you? How

3:07

did I know

3:10

you were back in

3:12

your own time period? No,

3:15

I... Okay, let's drop the

3:17

pleasant grace. Where's Brindley? I

3:20

know she's with you. Oh,

3:22

go, go jump down a

3:24

portal. Well, I quite intend

3:27

to end up! I

3:29

couldn't find a cab. Why do

3:31

you have that phone out? Can't

3:33

believe it fit in your

3:35

bag. We got a call. What?

3:37

Was it you? I mean, was it

3:39

my mom? How do I call her

3:41

back? Oh my gosh, it's ringing.

3:43

No, do not answer it.

3:46

It's Jude. No. He knows

3:48

where we are. Brindley, we

3:50

have to run. Now. Come

3:52

on, stop staring at the

3:54

phone and let's go. No.

3:56

No what? I'm not running

3:58

anymore. Here goes. Well,

4:01

everything. Hello,

4:04

Jude? How

4:06

goes it?

4:36

I wish I could say the

4:38

same. How did you reach us?

4:40

Are you here? Oh, that would

4:42

be lovely, wouldn't

4:44

it? Lovely as a bout of

4:46

salmonella. You don't mean that?

4:49

No, I'm currently not where.

4:51

When you are. But I'll

4:54

be there soon. And then

4:56

you'll see, Brindley. What

4:58

will I see? Exactly. And you

5:01

and I. Are nothing short

5:03

of me. We

5:08

will never be together

5:10

Jude, even if you

5:12

could find me. Are

5:14

you certain about that?

5:16

The Berlin stage suits

5:19

you. Look great up

5:21

there. From what I

5:23

saw in this newspaper.

5:25

You know about Berlin?

5:28

Huh. Well, Berlin is

5:30

a very big place.

5:32

Berlin. Yes, Berlin, where

5:35

we are. Oh, right.

5:37

I I told you,

5:39

there is nowhere in

5:42

this world or in

5:44

time where I can't

5:46

find you. Jude! sir,

5:54

We ended up in Whittiercourt. What did

5:56

you say? I'll see you soon. Now

6:02

well, Brittany. Told you not

6:04

to answer. But it worked, because

6:06

he thinks we're in Berlin.

6:09

Uh, hi. If he can

6:11

jump from 2024 to 1989,

6:13

he can surely figure out

6:15

where we went after Berlin.

6:17

I really need you to

6:19

start looking at the positives.

6:21

One, if he can get

6:23

through to 1989, we can

6:25

get through to 2024. Two. Two.

6:27

Two. Anytime now. We're still two

6:30

steps ahead. If we keep moving.

6:32

What's that mean? That means we

6:34

get our butts to Alaska. A

6:37

sap. I didn't say I was

6:39

coming. Oh, you're coming. I can

6:41

tell. You cannot. So you're not

6:44

coming? Oh, fine. Let's go. If

7:01

River and I didn't say it before,

7:03

thanks for the cell phones, it was

7:05

really nice of you. Then you don't

7:07

think I'm using them to track you?

7:09

Are you? No. But it's nice to

7:11

be able to call you. What do

7:13

you think of the arcade? Hasn't changed

7:15

much since the 80s. Oh, this

7:18

is the retro section. Miss Pac-Man.

7:20

The good old stuff. The virtual

7:23

reality section is to the right.

7:25

Laser tag is through the back

7:27

door over there, if you're in

7:29

the mood to shoot. Come on,

7:31

Sam, let's try out the virtue

7:33

reality. Okay, that sounds pretty cool,

7:35

I guess. Oh, look, he was

7:37

holding her hand. I don't like

7:40

it. He's a bad influence

7:42

on her. But he's your dad?

7:44

I know who is. I stand

7:46

by my statement. Maybe we should

7:49

stop staring, Bird. You didn't like

7:51

it when Mom and Dad did

7:53

it to you. Fine. But Dad

7:55

never gets to lecture us,

7:58

ever again. in the photo booth. How

8:00

do you always manage to find

8:02

dark empty corners? What are my

8:04

many talents? Do you want to take

8:06

some pictures? We could do like a

8:09

serious one and then a goofy one

8:11

with their tongues out. Sure, but that's

8:13

not why I pulled you in here. Okay. I

8:15

came over the plan to get away

8:17

from the Anders. For good. This

8:19

was a wonderful plan to escape

8:22

the drama of this morning holiday.

8:24

I think we all deserve to blow

8:26

off some steam today. What? You

8:28

mean after that delightful encounter with

8:30

Adam? I hate that guy. Gone. But

8:33

also, it's probably good for Salmon

8:35

River, to just have fun. Be

8:37

kids. Where did they go? Photo

8:39

booths on the left. Good looking

8:41

outside, Bob. I think it's sweet.

8:43

You're weird. At least it gives us

8:45

a chance to come up with our

8:48

next move to get inside Whittier Corp

8:50

and bring our family home. I thought

8:52

we were blowing off steam. This is

8:54

how I blow off steam. I approve.

8:56

What's the plan? We do what we

8:59

do best. Why do I have

9:01

a feeling I'm not going to

9:03

like what she says? We break

9:05

into Whittier Corp. Oh, I

9:07

knew it. You want to run away?

9:10

Now? I told you, it's not

9:12

running away. We're the parents.

9:15

Still, I feel bad. They

9:17

just ordered pizza. Seriously? Look,

9:19

the truth is, I do

9:22

feel a certain connection. And

9:24

I saw the way Holliday talked

9:26

about her mom when we were

9:28

making that chicken. That has nothing

9:30

to do with us. We make

9:32

our decisions. We go where we want

9:34

to go. Where are we going to

9:37

go? To a place with no rules.

9:39

Nobody to tell us what to do.

9:41

Where's that? Hang on a sec. Who

9:43

are you calling? Hello? Hey, it's me.

9:45

River. Is that... That Adam guy? Are

9:47

you going to tell me what you

9:49

want? We want to get to that

9:52

place you talked about.
