RIGHT TO COME HIT ON ME?

NO. NO. NO--

GROUNDS FOR ROMANTIC

TRYSTS, SEXUAL ADVANCES,

OR EVEN--CAN YOU GET OU FROM BEHIND THERE?

EVEN A LONG-DISTANCE

FRIENDSHIP.

IT WAS GREA SEEING YOU, TOO.

I'M SORRY. TIMING'S EVERYTHING,

AND THIS JUST ISN'T THE TIME.

IT'S NOT THE TIME,

RIGHT? IT'S NOT THE TIME.

MY DAD SAID I'D NEVER AMOUNT TO MUCH.

I DON'T WAN TO DISAPPOINT HIM.

[POTTERY CLATTERS]

[THUNDER]

TIME?

THE TIME IS 12:

I WONDER WHA SHE WAS THINKING ABOUT.

...THIS CUTTING

EDGE PROJEC:

BY RESEARCHERS:

IN PARTICLE PHYSICS

HAS BEEN SHUT DOWN BY

GOVERNMENT ORDER. HOSEA?

MARY, BIG NEWS

AT UTREL CORPORATION.

RESEARCHERS HERE WORKING

ON PARTICLE PHYSICS

BELIEVE THEY'VE

DISCOVERED A WAY

TO ACCELERATE:

A SUBATOMIC PARTICLE

FASTER THAN:

THE SPEED OF LIGHT.

THEY ARE USING:

A GROUNDBREAKING DEVICE

CALLED A SUPERACCELERATOR.

COME ON, HOSEA,

THAT'S OLD NEWS.

WHAT ABOU LISA'S MURDER?

...FINALLY ORDERED A COMPLETE

SHUTDOWN OF THE PROJECT.

THIS TOOL WILL HELP US

TO FINALLY DEFINE THE

NATURE OF THE UNIVERSE

AND HARNESS ITS ENERGY.

NOW, IMAGINE

A FACILITY THIS SIZE

POWERING HALF THE STATE OF

CALIFORNIA. IT'S REMARKABLE.

IF WE COULD ACTUALLY

POWER A PARTICLE

FASTER THAN THE SPEED

OF LIGHT,

THE ENERGY RELEASED

WOULD BE CATASTROPHIC.

TIME AND SPACE:

WOULD BE SHATTERED.

WE'D BE PUNCHED

BACKWARDS IN TIME

AND THEN MOVE FORWARD

UNTIL THE ACCELERATOR IS FIRED

AGAIN, AND WE'LL PUNCH BACK AGAIN

IN AN ENDLESS LOOP,

LIKE A SKIPPING RECORD.

THIS CIRCULAR TIME BOUNCE

WOULD BECOME OUR PRISON,

AND WE'D BE PRISONERS

WITHOUT MEMORY:

IN A CELL:

WITHOUT A KEY.

WHICH THEORY IS TRUE?

ANOTHER TUNE GOING OUT OVER

THE KBRY LOVERS' REQUEST...

YEAH, YEAH, YEAH. SCIENTIS KILLED AT WORK. COME ON.

...AND TEMPERATURES WILL

DIMINISH BY EARLY NEXT WEEK.

WE MAY S--

ONE OF US FELL DOWN

LAST NIGHT.

OH, MAN, I'M GOING

TO BE LATE AGAIN.

O.K., I WAS DRUNK.

[TELEPHONE RINGS]

[RING]

HELLO.

HI...MOM, I--

I'M RUNNING LATE AGAIN.

HOW ARE YOU?

YEAH, RIGHT. IT'S BEEN A REAL

LONG TIME SINCE WE TALKED.

I DID.

I DID MEET A GIRL.

NO, I DON'T THINK

YOU'RE GOING TO MEET HER.

BECAUSE SHE WAS SHOT.

NO, NOT-- NOT WITH

CAMERAS, WITH BULLETS.

MOM, I--I GOT TO GO.

I'LL CALL YOU LATER.

O.K...I WAS REALLY DRUNK.

THAT'S NOT HOW

YOU THROW THE BALL.

PATHETIC. WHAT'S

WRONG WITH YOU?

TALK ABOUT PATHETIC.

[TIRES SCREECH]

HO! WHOA! WHOA! WHOA!

DIDN'T I TELL YOU

TO BE MORE CAREFUL?

UP YOURS, MY MAN.

ALL RIGHT! NOW WE'RE

GETTING SOMEWHERE!

[HORN HONKS]

[TIRES SCREECH]

[CRASH]

WHERE ARE:

THE QUARTERLIES?

JACKSON'S READY TO CUT YOUR THROAT.

ON HER DESK.

CALM DOWN.

COMB YOUR HAIR.

IRON YOUR PANTS.

NOTHING WAS IN THE PAPER

DESK YESTERDAY BEFORE I LEFT.

I'M DOING YOU A FAVOR KEEPING

YOU ON WITH YOUR WORK PERFORMANCE.

SO FINISH:

THE PERSONNEL REPORTS,

COMPLETE THE MONTHLY

BILLING,

IF YOU WANTED TO BE ON TIME, YOU WOULD.

THERE WAS:

A CAR ACCIDENT...AGAIN.

I DON'T WAN TO FIGHT WITH YOU

OR BE YOUR FRIEND,

EITHER.

SO LET'S JUS DO THE WORK.

I'D HATE

TO KICK YOU OUT.

YOU'RE ONE

OF THE CUTE ONES.

OW...

DID YOU SEE THAT?

SHE CAME IN HERE JUS LIKE IT WAS YESTERDAY.

SHE HAD SEX ONCE IN 1983,

BUT SHE DIDN'T LIKE IT.

HERE'S THE UPDATE ON

THE NEW FILING SYSTEM.

YOU THINK I'M

A CRETINOUS MORON

WHO'D FALL FOR

THE SAME TRICK TWICE?

[ZAP]

TRICK?

THE SHOCKING DISK TRICK.

YOU GOT ME YESTERDAY.

HOW COME LISA FREDERICKS'

MURDER WASN'T ON TV,

WASN'T IN THE NEWSPAPERS, NOTHING?

LISA'S MURDER?

HOWARD, STAY WITH ME,

PLEASE.

YOU WERE STANDING

RIGHT NEXT TO ME

WHEN SHE WAS SHOT,

RIGHT?

WE TALKED TO THE POLICE

TOGETHER.

WE WENT DRINKING

LAST NIGHT.

YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO REMIND

IT'S FINE.

PLEASE GET THE OTHER

PAPERS TO ME BY NOON.

LISA.

YES?

BARRY FROM:

THE LUNCH LINE.

YOU--

YOU KICKED ME--

I CAN'T GET OVER THIS.

SORRY. YOU MUST BE MISTAKEN.

I THOUGH YOU WERE DEAD.

NO, AND I HOPE MY CONDITION

CONTINUES. GOODBYE.

I'M JUST SO HAPPY

YOU'RE ALL RIGHT.

WHO IS HE?

I REALLY DON'T KNOW.

I DON'T KNOW YOU.

CIGARETTE?

NO, THANKS. SHALL WE GET THIS OVER WITH?

MISS JACKSON,

JUST CORRECT IT.

ABSOLUTELY.

GOOD DAY.
