- Time's up.

- Wait.

Is the truck loaded?

Yes, ma'am.

Come on. I got a plane to catch.

Well, if you don't leave now

you're going to miss your flight

and then he's going to

be late for school.

Come on. Come on. Game's up.

Come on!

You got three days left to counter.

Wait.

You have to wait, you!

Wait. Wait. Wait.

Hey.

Your grand-dad gave me that.

I always use it when I travel.

Can I have it when you get back?

Yeah, man.

And we'll finish the game, okay?

Don't re-set it.

Okay. Ask Grandpa when he's

going to come and visit.

I will. I got to go.

I love you.

Okay. I got to get...

Got to go, got to go.

Call me when you land.

Will do. I love you.

I love you, too.

You okay?

Yeah.

Okay. See you on Friday.

Yeah.

- Say hi to dad.

- Will do.

Come on Honey.

Got to go. Got to go.

Morning, kiddo.

Yo.

You heard from daddy this morning?

No.

Still thinking?

Yeah.

I got to move, but I think I

can check mate him in three.

Oh, yeah?

Yeah.

What's the move?

First move pawn five to pawn three.

What is it?

You okay?

Hi, Mrs. Whyte.

Hey Grace.

Hey.

Did you grab the brownies I made?

Yeah.

Have a good day.

You too.

Hi. Leave a message.

Hey, it's me.

Haven't heard from

you since yesterday.

Hope the conference is going well.

We're going to see you tonight.

And making something special for

supper, so come home hungry.

Love you. Bye.

Look what I made.

It can go light speed

fast by forming a portal

through these generators.

One creates negative energy and

the other one creates positive.

That's nice.

Look. And there's room

for the both of us.

Let me see.

What's that?

For when they have a baby, but

they don't make Lego babies yet.

Um...

ls there milk in it?

Yeah.

Jere, you want a brownie?

Yes.

You're not having any?

Not if you aren't.

Hey. It's me.

We've been waiting for an hour.

Call me when you get this.

Bye.

Flight 767 from Newark,

have all the passengers

come off the flight yet?

Uh... Yeah.

Maintenance crews are on board.

We've been here for over an hour,

My husband's on that flight

and he hasn't come out yet.

Maybe he's stuck in customs.

This happens all the time.

Unfortunately, there's nothing

we can really do from here.

Okay.

Thank you.

Is he here?

No. Not yet, kiddo.

Empire Place.

Hi.

I'd like to enquire about

a client who's there

for the Relativistic

Dynamics conference.

His name's Gabriel Whyte.

W-h-y-t-e.

Yes, ma'am.

Can you tell me what

time he checked out?

Mr. Whyte is still checked in.

He is?

I'm dialling through.

There's no answer.

Would you do me a favour

and send somebody

to check that he's not there?

He was supposed to be

on a flight tonight

and I'm waiting for him at

the airport in Toronto.

Sure, I'll have someone

go to his room.

Shall I put you on hold?

- Yeah, sure.

- Thanks.

What happened?

Not sure. Daddy's late.

Housekeeping checked his room.

He's not there but his luggage is.

And he hasn't left any messages?

No ma'am.

Hello?

Hey, Dad...

Oh hi, sweetie.

Have you seen Gabe the

last couple of days?

'Cause I'm at Pearson and he was supposed

to come off the flight and he hasn't.

So I called the hotel and they

said that he's still checked in.

- But his phone's turned off and...

- I saw him right after he landed.

I took him to a work

space on campus

and just left him.

We were supposed to have

lunch the next day,

but he didn't answer his phone

so I figured he was busy.

Something's wrong.

He called me yesterday morning

and I haven't heard from him since.

Okay. I'll... I'll...

I'll see what I can find out

and I'll call you back.

Okay.

Tell Grandpa I said hi.

- Okay, I heard him.

- Hi, Erol.

He says hi.

- Bye, Dad.

- Thank you.

- Okay.

- Good bye.

Gabriel Whyte. Newark.

He left Wednesday morning.

- No.

- I haven't spoken to him to date.

The last time anyone spoke to

him was my father in Princeton.

Look, you're the police.

Aren't you supposed to

be doing something?

Hey, Joanne, it's me.

Hi.

Can I ask you a huge favour?

Would you watch Erol for a couple of

days for me while I go to Princeton?

He called after landing,

checked into his hotel,

came to my office,

then we came here.

Well, have the police

been here yet?

Not yet.

I didn't even know

this place existed.

He's the one who showed it to me.

I just gave him access and left.

He said he wanted a

quiet place to work.

This definitely was not here.

Whatever it is, it must be his.

Did he have those crates with him?

Shrink-wrapped, yeah.

Dad...

Yeah?

It's his wallet and his phone.

We need to get the

police here right away.

I want to maybe talk to people

that he knew on campus.

I don't know what to do.

Hey, Professor.

I pulled those boxes we were talking about.

Just let me know where you want them.

Okay. I'll catch up with you.

I need to get back.

Listen, we'll find him.

Dad, it's been three days.

The police are baffled and...

Marika, we'll figure it out.

Thanks, Dad.

Call me later.

Bye.

Hi.

Hi.

This place hasn't changed.

Yeah, it's my grand-dad's legacy.

We've kept it exactly

how he made it.

You want a coffee?

Uh, yeah.

Um, can I ask you a question?

Sure.

Sorry.

You haven't seen this guy in

here in the past couple of days?

Uh... No. Sorry.

Yes, coming right up.

Is that your report card?

Dad!

Hey, peanut.

Give us a look.

Can I see yours?

Yeah, all right.

Why were you away so much?

Because I never came home.

Erol?

You okay?

Yes. Strange dream.

This is Marika. Please

leave a message.

Hey, Mom. I'm just checking in.

Hope the lecture went well.

Have a safe flight.

Bye.

Was it about your mom?

No, I just forgot to

call her earlier.

Was it about how you haven't

studied for your finals?

No need to dream about reality.

Mom?

Mom?

Yeah?

Hey. Welcome back.

You just get in?

Yeah.

Want breakfast?

Thanks. That would be great.

Right. Come down whenever.

Okay.

Morning, kiddo.

Hey. Good morning.

Oh, thank you.

Didn't you have class today?

I cancelled. I was too tired.

Didn't sleep on the plane?

Not much lately.

There's another

letter here from MIT.

Have you accepted yet?

Told you, I'm just

not a Red Sox fan.

Oh, honey.

You can't let this go by.

We'll talk about this later.

By the way, there's a message from

Dr. Wong's office on the machine.

- Did you miss your appointment last week?

- I'm not seeing Dr. Wong anymore.

Why not?

Because I never blacked out

once from the medication

but he is keeping my

driver's license.

And I'm sick of taking the bus.

So you want to change medications?

Well, I'd like to stop altogether.

As in, you've already stopped?

Yep.

I'd like to feel like myself again.

You're not eating?

No.

I already did.

Let's talk about this later, okay?

Bye.

- Thank you.

- Welcome back.

Bye. Have a good day.

You too.

Okay.

Anyone.

It would take weeks to

even organize a work flow.

What if I gave you my approach?

Did it work?

No, no. You have to tell me.
