- Get out of there, Gramps.

- Take it easy !

And McFly, don't go anywhere !

You're next !

This is a video game.

I got it working.

My dad taught me about these.

It is Wild Gunman.

How do you play this thing ?

I'll show you, kid.

I'm a crack shot at this.

You mean you have to use your hands ?

That's like a baby's toy.

Baby's toy ?

Pepsi Perfect.

- Damn !

- Pepsi.

I thought I told you to stay in here !

Guys, how's it going ?

- McFly !

- What ?

Your shoe's unbelted.

So, McFly, have you made a decision

about tonight's opportunity ?

Yeah, Griff. I was thinking about how I'm

not sure because it might be dangerous.

What's wrong, McFly ?

You got no scrote ?

He's a complete wimp.

What's it going to be, McFly ?

Are you in or out ?

I just, I'm not sure that I should.

I should discuss it with my father.

Your father ?

Wrong answer, McFly ! You lose !

Okay, Griff, I'll do it.

Whatever you say.

Stay down and shut up.

Keep pedaling, you two !

Now...

let's hear the right answer.

Since when did you become

the physical type ?

The answer's no, Griff.

- No ?

- Are you deaf and stupid ? I said no !

What's wrong, McFly ? Chicken ?

What did you call me, Griff ?

Chicken, McFly !

Nobody calls me...

chicken.

- All right, punk !

- Look !

Stop ! Little girl, little girl.

Stop. Look,

I need to borrow your "hoverboard".

- Where is he ?

- Here.

There !

He's on a hoverboard.

- Get the boards !

- Get McFly !

Get him !

Yeah, we got him !

There's something very familiar

about all this.

McFly, you bojo !

- Those boards don't work on water !

- Unless you've got power !

Hook on !

Batter up !

Holy sh*t !

Buttheads.

Drying mode on.

Jacket drying.

Your jacket is now dry.

Hey, kid. Hey, little girl, thanks.

Keep it. I got a Pit Bull now.

- Come on.

- Save the clock tower !

Throw in $100

and help save the clock tower.

Sorry, no.

- That's an important historical landmark !

- Some other time.

Lightning struck that thing

Wait a minute.

Cubs win World Series...

- Against Miami ?

- Yeah, it's something, huh ?

Who would've thought ? 100-1 shot !

I wish I could go back

to the beginning of the season...

- bet on the Cubs.

- I just meant Miami...

What did you just say ?

I wish I could go back to the beginning

of the season, bet on the Cubbies !

This has an interesting feature.

It has a dust jacket.

Books had these to protect the covers.

That was before dust-repellent paper.

If you're interested in dust,

we have something from the 1980s...

called a Dustbuster.

- I can't lose.

- Up here !

- Doc, what's going on ?

- Stand by. I'll park over there.

Yeah, all right.

Hey, right on time.

Flying DeLorean ?

I haven't seen one in 30 years.

Sorry. Excuse me. Sorry.

I'm walking here !

I'm walking here !

- What the hell ?

- Don't drive trank, low-res scuzzball !

Two of them ?

I left him in

a suspended animation kennel.

Einstein never knew I was gone !

What in the name

of Sir Isaac H. Newton happened here ?

Doc, my kid showed up.

All hell broke loose.

Your kid ?

Great Scott, I was afraid of this.

I used it on Jennifer. There wasn't enough

power left to knock your son out.

Doc, look at this !

It's changing.

I was framed !

Yes ! Yes, of course !

Because this hoverboard incident

occurred, Griff goes to jail.

Your son won't go with him tonight.

That robbery won't take place !

History, future history,

has been altered, and this is proof !

We've succeeded, not as planned, but no

matter. Let's get Jennifer and go home !

Hi, Einie. Hi, buddy.

- What's this ?

- A souvenir.

"50 years of sports statistics".

Hardly recreational reading material.

Doc, what's the harm in

bringing back some info on the future ?

We could place some bets.

I didn't invent the time machine

for financial gain !

The intent is to gain

a clearer perception of humanity.

Our past, our future,

the pitfalls, the possibilities...

the perils, and the promise. Perhaps an

answer to that universal question, "Why ?"

I'm all for that.

What's wrong with making

a few bucks on the side ?

I am going to put this in the trash.

Great Scott !

McFly, Jennifer Jane Parker,

Hilldale, age 47.

- What's happening ?

- They used her thumbprint to assess her ID.

Since thumbprints never change,

they assume she's the future Jennifer.

We got to stop them.

How ? Tell them we're time travelers ?

They'd have us committed.

She's clean. We take her home.

To Hilldale ?

We won't get there before dark.

They're taking her to your future home !

We'll arrive shortly thereafter,

get her, and return to 1985.

I'll see where I live.

See myself as an old man ?

No, that could result in...

Great Scott !

Jennifer could conceivably encounter

her future self !

The consequences could be disastrous !

- What do you mean ?

- I foresee two possibilities.

One, seeing herself 30 years older would

put her into shock, and she'd pass out...

or two, the encounter

could create a time paradox...

and cause a chain reaction

that would unravel...

the space-time continuum

and destroy the entire universe !

Granted, that's a worst-case scenario.

The destruction might be localized,

limited to our own galaxy.

Well, that's a relief.

Let's go and find Jennifer

before she finds herself.

The skyway's jammed.

It'll take forever to get there.

And this stays here !

I didn't invent the time machine to win

at gambling, but to travel through time !

I know.

So, Doc Brown invented a time machine.

Hilldale.

Nothing but a breeding ground

for tranks, lobos, and zipheads.

Yeah, they ought to tear

this whole place down.

Welcome home, Jennifer.

You got a little tranked,

but I think you can walk.

Ma'am, you should reprogram.

It's dangerous in the dark.

- Lights on ?

- Yes. Now, look.

Just take it easy, and you'll be fine.

And be careful in the future.

The future ?

Have a nice day, Mrs. McFly.

Broadcasting beautiful views

You're tuned to the Scenery Channel.

I'm in the future.

I get married in the Chapel O Love ?

Mom ? Mom, is that you ?

I got to get out of here !

Mom ? Mom, is that you ?

- Grandma !

- Sweetheart !

- What happened to Grandpa ?

- He threw his back out again.

- How's Granddad's little pumpkin ?

- How did you do that ?

Out on the golf course.

Are your folks home yet ?

I brought pizza !

- Who's going to eat all that ?

- I will.

Damn this traffic !

Jennifer, old Jennifer gets home around

now. I hope we're not too late.

- What is it ? What's the matter, Doc ?

- I thought I saw a taxi.

I thought it was following us.

I can't believe

this window's still broken.

When the repairman

called Daddy a chicken...

Daddy threw him out of the house.

Now nobody will fix it.

Look how worn out this is.

Your father's biggest problem

is that he loses all self-control...

when someone calls him chicken.

How often have we heard it ?

"Mom, I can't let him think I'm chicken".

You're right. Well, you're right !
