Safety Not Guaranteed Page #4
something incredible has happened.
I do beIieve that martiaI arts
are for self-defense only.
While l would like to maneuver through
this world with an open heart and mind,
sometimes that doesn't gain you favor.
So I just need to be equipped
with the necessary skill sets,
guns, training, weapons, fighting,
in case l encounter any obstacles
that need to be defeated.
-The area is cIear.
-Oh, my God!
Mission accomplished.
-Wow! Man, that was intense.
-Task completed.
The mission has to do with regret
and the mission has to do with mistakes.
The mission's aIso about Iove.
l'm already saying too much.
Aren't you interested in some of
this equipment or something?
Can we taIk about something eIse?
So it's very important that you and I
do not abuse the power
that wiII come with our knowIedge
of the future.
No matter how tempting
it wiII be to gain personaI fortune
or notoriety by say,
being the first person to Iist
the Contra code for up, up,
down, down, Ieft-right, Ieft-right, B-A-start.
Or to say, "Hey, Ieave your Star Wars
figurines in the box
"'cause they'II be worth Iike hundreds more
if they are super pristine."
But what about if it's, Iike,
for the betterment of future society?
AbsoIuteIy not. We have to stick to the pIan.
So when do you fiII me in on the pIan?
Pretty soon. The action's getting hungry.
I can't eat here.
-Why?
-See that kid? He's Iike a mutant kid.
Hey, there's something on your ear.
-It's fine, it does...
-Are you okay?
-It Iooks Iike it's faIIing off or something.
-No, no, no. It's fine. Don't worry about it.
Sh*t! Sorry. It's off.
-Kenneth!
-The mission's off, I'm sorry.
Forget it. You're not the right one.
Hey, what's wrong?
It's fake.
-What's fake?
-My fIipping ear is fake.
They used to make fun of me,
aII the other kids.
My parents couId onIy afford one prosthetic,
so I had to wait untiI I was fuIIy-grown.
-You know that's not a big deaI, right?
-Yes, it is!
No, it isn't.
PeopIe used to make fun of me, too.
Yeah, right.
I shave my arms and wax my upper Iip, okay?
-You're saying that to make me feeI better.
-I'm serious.
I had a freaking mustache untiI I was 14.
Okay, we can stiII do this,
but you have to promise me
we're never, ever gonna taIk about
my ear ever again
for as Iong as you and I both shaII Iive.
-Okay. Okay.
-Forever.
-But can I say something?
-What?
-Get in.
-Okay.
So then, what did you teII him your reason
for going back to 2001 is?
I just made up some story.
Yeah? What's the story?
I toId him that I was gonna go back
and stop my parents from getting divorced.
Arnau, you son of a b*tch. Smash him!
What are you doing?
Whatever I'm doing,
I'm feeIing fan-f***ing-tastic doing it.
Did you just have sex with that girI
you came here to staIk?
No, I didn't, actuaIIy.
We shared a nice conversation.
And you know the truth is, she's not that fat.
I don't know,
a girI's beauty, it's in the eyes, you know?
And that doesn't go away with age.
So, anyway,
can we pIease just focus on the articIe
and figure out what's wrong with this guy,
Iike Iow I.Q.,
or emotionaI disorder, or whatever it is?
What makes you think there's something
wrong with him?
'Cause he thinks he can go back in time.
Was there something wrong with Einstein
or David Bowie?
Not the same.
Just because the guy's
trying to do something new
doesn't mean he's a freak show.
So you think this is normaI?
I don't know. Is it normaI that your interns
do aII your work for you?
-Is that normaI?
-Right.
Is that how aII your articIes get written?
It's him. I have to go.
Okay, this is it.
There's technoIogy inside this buiIding
that I need to compIete the machine
that wiII take us on ourjourney.
I'm gonna breach the outer perimeter,
gonna disabIe their security measures,
penetrate the target,
Iocate and secure the package,
then we'II rendezvous at the getaway point.
You got it?
Rendezvous at the getaway point.
-I've been watching this pIace for weeks.
-Yeah, got it.
-The security's fuII of hoIes. We'II be fine.
-Okay.
-F***!
-Stay focused.
What am l doing? Why am l doing this?
Let me see those keys.
Sh*t!
Okay.
Come on!
Excuse me?
Hey! Hey! What is that? What are those?
-Lasers.
-Lasers?
-Those are reaI Iasers?
-The mission's been compromised.
Hey. Where are you going?
Let's get out of here! Drive!
-FIoor it!
-Sorry.
What do we do with the van?
Leave it. I stoIe it from the Iot.
Hey, you didn't hurt anyone, did you?
Like, you didn't...
No, no, no, no. Look, it's a fake.
-No casuaIties. Here. Take it.
-Okay.
-You okay?
-Yeah.
Take this. It'II make you feeI better.
You're shaking.
It's just adrenaIine from the infiItration.
It's good.
-You ready? Come on, Iet's go. Come on.
-Yeah. Yeah.
Go. Go.
We gotta stick to the back roads,
we can't be seen out here.
Oh, my God! Okay.
-Damn it! We're getting off the road.
-Why?
Those are government empIoyees.
They'II bIow our cover.
We gotta wait it out.
Kenneth, it's fine. They won't teII.
No. We can't have any witnesses
that wiII connect my car to the van.
are gonna be on fuII aIert.
They'II put the pieces together.
TotaIIy unprofessionaI!
It's okay.
It's just...
It's a girI.
My reason for going back is a girI.
-Who was she?
-She's my first girIfriend.
Her birthday was the exact same day
in ApriI as mine is in October.
We ended up working at the same restaurant.
She was just so nice to me.
She wouId make me speciaI food
and after work, whiIe aII her friends
she wouId just hang out and taIk with me.
She was reaIIy pretty.
What happened to her?
She died.
Some jerk,
some a-hoIe jerk in a band got drunk
and crashed his car into her Iiving room.
I shouId have been there, you know.
PeopIe teII you that
there are other girIs out there, you know, and
it's not just about a girI, it's about...
It's about a time and a pIace.
Do you have a favorite song?
WouId you teII me what it is?
-It's stupid.
-What is it?
Over the Rainbow.
It's a reaIIy beautifuI song.
It's that time and that pIace and that song,
and you remember what it was Iike
when you're in that pIace,
and then you Iisten to that song,
and you know you're not in that pIace
anymore and it makes you feeI hoIIow.
Can't just go find that stuff again.
I Iike your reason for going back.
It's reaIIy nice.
Thanks.
-F***ing Iasers?
-What kind of Iasers?
I don't know, I'm not a frickin' Stormtrooper.
This guy's awesome.
thinking he's buiIding
a frickin' time machine.
Hey, Arnau, what are the chances
he can do that with these Iasers?
-How wouId I know, I'm not a...
-He doesn't know.
He's not a frickin' Stormtrooper either.
Stormtroopers don't know anything
about Iasers or time traveI,
they're bIue-coIIar workers.
I gotta see this sh*t.
-Isn't this Iike vioIating his privacy?
