do it all along.

I never doubted you

for a second.

MEG:
Well...

I used my faults,

like you said.

Such beautiful faults.

I'm so proud of you, Meg.

The universe is bright tonight

because of you.

You weakened The IT...

and you've given your Earth

and everyone on it

a real chance.

MRS. WHICH:

You should be proud.

Some of our best warriors

have come from Earth.

Einstein, Curie, Gandhi.

MRS. WHATSIT:
Austen. Kahlo.

Schindler.

MRS. WHO:
Nelson Mandela.

Maya Angelou.

And now, Meg Murry.

Me?

(SCOFFS) What?

All those who are willing

to face the darkness...

and bring the best

of themselves to the light...

for the world.

This is where we leave you...

to become warriors on Earth.

MRS. WHO:

Now, Meg, it's time...

for you to start the tesser

for all of us...

and make your way back home.

What?

Me?

You want me

to start the tesser?

"Tomorrow, there'll be

more of us."

Miranda, American.

(WHOOSHING)

MRS. WHATSIT:

Goodbye, my loves.

MRS. WHICH:
Farewell,

my little warriors.

MRS. WHO:

Until we meet again.

CHARLES WALLACE:

See you at home!

(PENSIVE MUSIC PLAYING)

(LAUGHING)

Oh! (CHUCKLES)

Meg, you did it!

You absolutely,

gloriously tessered.

Daddy!

(SOBBING)

Hey.

You did it.

I sure did.

Mommy!

(SOFTLY) Hi. Uh...

Are you okay?

I'm okay, Dad.

Good.

I'm sorry, Meg.

I, uh...

I wanted to shake hands

with the universe.

But I should've been

holding yours.

I love you so much.

I love you, too.

(CHUCKLES SOFTLY)

(DOG BARKS)

Charles Wallace?

What are you doing outside?

Mommy!

(LAUGHS)

Well, well, okay.

Thanks. What's going on?

(MRS. MURRY LAUGHING)

Wait.

Am I asleep?

Am I dreaming?

MEG:
No...

you're not sleeping.

And it's important

you know that.

Why?

Because Meg

brought you something.

I'm sorry I'm late.

I'm so, so sorry.

How...

- Where...

- Your calculations.

They gave us the universe.

(CHUCKLING)

I think

I'm gonna go home.

You sure?

Yeah.

There are some things

I need to say to my dad.

Maybe now I can

finally say them.

It's funny

how it took a trip

around the universe

to get me there.

Can I call you later?

Yeah.

(MEG GRUNTS)

I knew you could do it.

MEG:
Love you.

Always.

- MR. MURRY:
Hey!

- CHARLES WALLACE: Daddy, I have

a new word for the day.

Wanna hear it?

MR. MURRY:
Absolutely.

CHARLES WALLACE:
Home.

Thank you.

(I BELIEVE

(FLOWER OF THE UNIVERSE

BY SADE PLAYING)

Ooh

They come to see

the fire burning

In your heart

They want to witness

This love

From the start

They hear when you cry

This love is far and wide

When you smile

The stars align

Flower of the universe

Child of mine

When you sleep

Softly the angels come

Like diamonds

Like my love

They want to know it's true

There's someone in the world

Lovely as you

They hear you when you cry

This love is far and wide

When you smile

the stars align

Flower of the universe

Child of mine

(WARRIOR BY CHLOE X HALLE

PLAYING)
