Warren was an ordinary person.
Just one of ten million beings
inhabiting this island.
He was Jewish, 33 years old.
He was engaged.
He was an unemployed,
marginally successful graphic novelist...
who smoked marijuana often,
and had lots of time on his hands.
Warren had few ambitions, no radical
passions, and he was not political.
He was not poor,
nor was he rich.
He was rarely actually ever sick,
and had no trouble sleeping.
In fact, the only thing remarkable
in Warren's day-to-day existence...
was his dreams.
Oh, honey. Yeah.
Ooh. Oh. Ah.
This is Karen, Warren's fiance.
Though they had been engaged
for over three years,
it was only last week that Warren finally
succumbed to a date for the ceremony.
However, their wedding...
was not the only thing
on her agenda.
Karen was 32 years old,
and her biological alarm...
was blaring like a foghorn.
- Nice one, honey.
- This morning, she was ovulating.
Jesus Christ.
In preparation
for their new life,
Karen had begun
leaving notes for Warren.
Post-It notes, strategically placed
to intercept Warren's focus...
as it drifted from one
fascination to another.
Warren's life was simple
in the summer of 2012.
In the mornings, after Karen
would leave for work,
he would smoke pot
and spend about three hours...
watching conspiracy theory
videos online.
I want to ask you a
question about the headlines.
Does it seem like they're going
from grim to grimmer these days?
And does it make you wonder...
if the prophecies and predictions
about 2012 are really coming to pass?
The people who tend to suffer the
worst during a cataclysmic event...
are the ones who simply
do not see it coming.
He'd spend his days
looking for purpose in his life.
At night, he and Karen
would make dinner,
and he would lie to her
about his job search.
I'm so proud of you.
- I'm proud of me, too.
- Are you?
Mm-hmm.
Really?
Warren would have continued
his routine indefinitely,
but for one particularly
wet evening.
As he was en route to an engagement,
something happened.
Something phenomenal.
Ow!
Oh!
F***in' bum!
Whether Warren actually became
infected by some next-gen virus...
upon co-mingling
with the doomsday man,
he could not be sure.
I bumped into this 2012 end-is-near guy.
It was a sign.
I just want to go home.
Just go home.
Stay for a half hour.
Find Balance.
We're gonna find Balance.
We'll find Balance.
This is my art, by the way.
Hi. Welcome to Whip.
No, man.
You just can't... You can't sweat too much.
You know, they say sex
is a Texas drought, but...
- See now, man, it's circular...
- Anyone know Balance?
Oh, yeah.
Balance is my boy, man.
- Hey, man.
- How you doing, brother? What's your name?
I'm Warren. How you doing?
Balance just left, man.
Your boy just went out to get something.
He'll be right back.
Everything, you know?
Viruses, computers.
It's all... It's all just coming
to some end point, it seems like.
It seems like the end
is near, to me.
I mean, Armageddon,
whatever you want to call it.
I had a bad bump-into this,
like...
A homeless guy.
He's all sweaty and crazy.
He's got this
"end is near" sign.
He sweat all over me. It was nasty and,
and um... Okay. Okay.
- Tell him about Planet X. Tell him about...
- Planet X.
2012. The end
of the world.
Daniel Pinchbeck has already
written a best-selling book.
The movie's already in the can.
Well, is this stuff laced?
With barbarian kangaroo.
Aw. Barbarian kangaroo.
Quarter of a
pomegranate might do you in.
Look at him on a
quarter of a pomegranate.
'Cause we injected it with that acid.
That wolfbane.
You had enough.
He's spinning like a top.
- There are different principles.
- Yeah.
So, I felt that being given this
media stage and spotlight...
by Hollywood was...
was, like, you know,
necessary to take that...
that option and opportunity,
but then, you know,
what I felt was that...
Karen?
Honey?
Karen?
Karen?
Warren, it's not Karen.
It's not the f***in' I.R.S.
I am your worst nightmare,
Warren.
Oh, sh... Um...
I'm sorry, man.
I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
This is my bad.
This is my bad.
Come on!
Hey.
Oh, my God.
I can't...
Am I paralyzed?
I need you to listen
to me. All right?
I'm tired of games.
All right?
I... I want the truth.
You really want the truth?
Mm-hmm.
You really wanna know?
She was an agent of truth.
A general of light.
She was ex-everything.
Ultra black ops.
Warren sat paralyzed
for what seemed like weeks,
frozen, listening to her.
The floodgates opened,
and she told him every secret.
Einstein was an alias.
The whole truth about J.F.K.,
9-11, Area 51, the Illuminati,
the moon landings,
Jesus and Magdalene,
the C.I.A., K.G.B.
and AIDS,
the reptilian elite, Watergate,
the New World Order, Bilderberg,
the MK-ULTRA Project,
the Federal Reserve System,
false flag operations, Paul McCartney,
coup d'tats, Tesla and the
suppression of vortex technologies,
global surveillance, espionage,
and the secret underground
intelligence agency cities,
FEMA, mind control,
media control...
and the subliminal
propaganda agency,
NASA, the N.S.A.,
the Loch Ness monster,
drug wars, synthetic disease,
the cure for cancer,
the criminalization of marijuana,
water fluoridation and peak oil.
She described in vivid detail
the history of the world...
and the oppression
of the human consciousness.
She held nothing back and
gave him the truth about God,
the devil, heaven, hell and the
delicate fabric of the universe.
Her cigarette never burned out.
Well, she would have left
right then and there,
but she realized
Warren was a simple man,
and for fear he would retain none
of this ancient, secret knowledge,
she had no choice
but to do one last thing.
In happier news now.
Anne Hathaway.
- She's planning her big day.
- She is.
What do we hear
about her wedding plans?
Sources are saying that
she just sent out save-the-dates...
for a wedding in New York
at the Plaza...
with her fianc Adam Shulman.
She's very, very happy,
and we're happy for her.
Such a huge star in Hollywood.
Yeah.
A really great example.
You don't hear
about her dancing on tables...
or some ridiculous scandal.
She is a class act.
She is a class act.
She is one of the starlets
that really rises to the occasion.
She is.
When you watch her on screen,
you care about her character.
There are so many times
and I'm really just talking about
so-and-so just playing a part,
but I'm really looking
at the star.
- Welcome to Bridal Reflections.
- Thank you.
I'm Tony. Warren.
Warren.
I... I'm Karen. Karen.
Well, nice to... Nice to have you here.
Follow me right in through here.
To the left, we have our bridal gowns.
Gorgeous.
We'll do bridesmaids
first, though.
Then focus on that?
Yeah. That'll be fine.
So, are you nervous
about the big day?
What big day?
Your wedding.
Oh. Yeah. Yeah.
Uh, yes, I am.
