frigging awesome!

CHRIS:
We'll never have to

worry about money ever again.

We're gonna be so rich,

I'm gonna hire Kim Kardashian

to have my baby.

"Winner's Parking!"

Oh, my God.

QUINN:
Put it there.

Put it right there.

This is worth

so much money.

QUINN:
I respect you

for that.

After taxes,

that's $53,876,522.

Want to bet me $100,000

that you're right?

I'll bet you $200,000

I'm exact.

All right, wait here.

I'll go check.

She's checking.

She's checking?

She's checking.

Congratulations.

You're winners.

Me personally, I'm gonna

take it easy at first.

You know, I'm gonna get

a yacht, a few Ferraris,

you know, then see what

happens, go from there.

WOMAN:
Okay, you guys do know

that $1.8 million after taxes

isn't enough for what

you want to do?

You should save it,

pay for college.

I'm sorry, I thought

you just said 1.8?

It was 53 million,

876 thousand, and, uh...

After taxes.

WOMAN:
You guys only got

five out of six numbers.

Why did you put 44?

CHRIS:
Are you kidding me?

Because that's what

you put down.

That is not what I put down.

I put a... That is a nine.

That's 49, Adam.

Are you blind?

How is that a nine?

You have to go back

and do it again!

(ALL SHUSHING)

I am not winning

the lottery twice!

CHRIS:
Smile, guys,

come on. This is great.

It's a million dollars, guys.

Are you freaking kidding me?

KATHY:
Wait, what? No, you

have to use that for school.

No, no.

There was plenty more.

Please.

Oh, my God.

(KATHY LAUGHING)

Okay. Mom...

Okay, bye.

Bye.

I love you.

QUINN:
Make yourself useful.

DAVID:
What the hell?

QUINN:
Whoo!

Hey, welcome to Maserati.

Can I help you?

Wassup, bro?

What's a guy got to do to get

a test drive around here?

Well, I'd love to, but this is

a big boy's car.

You see, I was either

going to buy one of these

or 17 Toyota Corollas.

Whoo!

(CAR ENGINE REVVING)

Oh, shoot, is that

my xenon difluoride?

CHRIS:

Is that a sex doll?

No, it's an insanely

powerful battery.

Oh, my God.

QUINN:
Bet right now.

Next person who scores,

10 grand.

Get in there!

ADAM:
Damn it.

Pay up.

ADAM:
This game is stupid.

QUINN:
I wanna hear my

money being counted.

ADAM:
One hundred,

200, 300, 400...

CHRIS:
David, Come on.

Come hang out with us.

DAVID:
Yeah. Look,

I'll be there in one second.

I just wanna tweak

something with the

auxiliary output, okay?

CHRIS:
David, you're

allowed to take a break.

(EXHALING)

Hi.

CHRIS:
So, what do you

think of David?

Chris, it's your brother.

CHRIS:
Don't worry,

he can't hear us.

He is pretty smart, huh?

DAVID:
Experiment 16.

Attempting to extend

the time differential

between two and four years

with minimal voltage input.

JESSIE:
David?

You're still down here?

Jess. Hey.

Hey.

Sorry, I think I left

my English folder.

Yes, you did.

It's right there.

Thank you.

Is there something wrong

with the machine?

No, I'm trying to figure

out how to make it go back

even further.

You know

what I mean?

Can you?

I think so.

I've been running some tests

on a new battery source,

uh, xenon difluoride.

You just made

that up, right?

No.

(JESSIE CHUCKLING)

How far back could we go

if you got it to work?

Ten years?

Ten years.

Seriously?

Yeah. Ten years.

Sorry. When you said

"time machine,"

I thought dinosaurs,

or at least Woodstock.

Why do you always

do that?

The watch thing.

Oh!

I don't know. It's like

a nervous habit or something.

Oh.

Yeah.

Are you saying

I make you nervous?

No.

I, uh...

So where did you

get it?

What?

The watch.

Oh. Uh, my dad gave it

to me before he died.

I was like...

On my seventh birthday.

Your seventh

birthday, right?

Yeah.

You look just like him.

Really?

Handsome.

Thank you.

So how did he, um...

It was a car crash.

He left my party.

Um, had some kind of

urgent call or something.

I don't even really know.

To be honest with you,

I don't know the whole story.

You think you'll go back

to save him?

That's what I'm trying to do.

If I can just get the machine

to go back that far.

Maybe I'm the mastermind.

Did you ever think about that?

I mean, you're pretty smart.

You're pretty smart.

I'm just saying,

like, you know,

clearly something's missing.

And now you have my keys

and now you have me, so...

Wait. What do you mean,

I have you?

Well, you know, I'm like...

I'm part of the group

now, right?

(CAR HORN HONKING)

GIRL:
What's outside?

(CAR ENGINE REVVING)

BOY:
Oh, my God!

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

(UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYING)

(ALL CHEERING)

CHRIS:
I'd usually make

a joke, but this is awesome.

Dude, Quinn is insane!

QUINN:
David! What up, dude?

He's crazy!

I got Mexican food!

I got Cuban, fusion, Indian,

all sorts

of different flavors!

CHRIS:
Adam! Adam!

Where's mine?

Here, Chris.

Way to go, Finn! Finn! Whoo!

Did she just

call you Finn?

(CHRIS LAUGHING)

Finn?

All right.

Finn, Finn, Finn!

ALL:
(CHANTING) Finn!

Finn! Finn! Finn! Finn! Finn!

Finn! Finn! Finn! Finn!

This is the best day

of my life!

(ALL CHEERING)

Uh, sixth period,

under the bleachers, okay?

Meet me there.

Yeah, maybe if I'm done having

sex with all these girls.

TEACHER:
And in his

effort to avert the British

from recognizing

the Confederacy,

he subjugated what?

He...

He subjugated the what?

The...

Yeah, David?

DAVID:
Can I use

the bathroom?

TEACHER:
Yeah.

So...

He subjugated the what?

He subjugated

the what of the...

Hmm?

He subjugated...

ADAM:
He just texted me,

I swear. Hey.

Yo, what's wrong

with your face?

DAVID:
What?

You're smiling, like huge.

What are we

doing here, David?

Yeah. What are

we doing here?

DAVID:
It's a surprise.

I like surprises. Shut up!

No one cares what you like.

I should be in trig, David.

DAVID:
I know, I know.

Don't worry,

we'll just be gone

one minute.

All right, guys.

Who wants to push this thing

back three months?

ADAM:
How?

The machine can't do that.

Trust me. Just brace

harder than before.

(LOUD WHIRRING)

QUINN:
This feels different.

Are you sure this is okay?

(CROWD CHEERING)

(MUSIC PLAYING IN DISTANCE)

QUINN:
Guys, yo, yo, yo!

(ROCK MUSIC PLAYING)

(CHEERING)

I know it's not Woodstock

or anything, but...

It'll do!

It'll do.

Yes!

All right, sweet.

Can I have your number?

Whoo!

(SINGING ALONG)

Dude, I'm supposed

to be in gym right now!

(GIRL SCREAMING)

I'm never going home!

(LAUGHING)

QUINN:
Oh, here.

The schedule.

We're not gonna

see gangsta rap

over Vampire Weekend.

That's dumb.

(ALL TALKING AT ONCE)

You guys, wait,

you guys. Guys.

We don't have to argue.

This already happened.

It's all on Instagram.

I know what was sick

and what wasn't. Dude, look.

All right, let's go do it.

Adam! Adam, hey, will you

hold the camera?

ADAM:
Oh, my God.

(CHRIS LAUGHING)

I love time travel.

Right here.

QUINN:
What?

ADAM:
How did you

get these?

Dude, are those VIP?

DAVID:
Yeah, three months

after the show,

five bucks on eBay.

ADAM:
Oh, my God!
