Safety Not Guaranteed Page #6

Stand straight

FaII back in Iine

Comb your hair

Get to work on time

Everyone in the big machine

Tries to break your heart

And pull you underneath

Maybe l'm wrong

And all that you get is what you see

Maybe l'm right

And there's something out there to believe

Everybody's talking in their sleep

They push a lot of air around

But don't say much of anything

Except when they laugh at me

Like ghosts under a sheet

Everybody's talking in their sleep

I messed up a bunch of parts,

-but that's basicaIIy what it is.

-No, it's so good.

Shut up.

So good.

Thanks.

-Yeah.

-Yeah. Anyway, you coId?

Trust me. Trust me.

Now, feeI this.

It works, right?

What are you doing in the Iobby?

Are they stiII in there?

Yeah, that's the point. She's stiII in there.

-You go.

-What do you mean I go?

I didn't want to hang out with these three.

I did it for you!

I don't think so. It's fine. You go.

-Are you gay?

-What? No...

-Is that what this is?

-No.

I'm asking you seriousIy,

I'm not judging you.

You don't know this about me,

but I don't care about that stuff.

No, Jeff, I'm not gay, no.

This is set up perfectIy.

Do you not think she's hot?

-You're acting Iike it's so easy.

-Because it is so easy.

-No, Jeff. It's easy for you, not for me.

-Why not?

Because I'm not you, Jeff.

Do you just wanna see me get embarrassed?

No!

Arnau, come here, man. Come here.

F***ing come here.

I'm not pranking you, man.

You're not gonna get this opportunity

very much Ionger.

You're not aIways gonna be 21 , young man.

I promise you f***ing that.

I don't know. I don't know what to...

How do I start?

First of aII, take these pedophiIe gIasses off

I wouId take a photo of you and show you

'cause you Iook fantastic.

-You Iook Iike a damn piIot.

-Okay.

Like a cooI piIot who drives jets.

Pop this sh*t.

Act Iike you've been there before.

You're not gonna be your age forever.

One day, you're gonna be the oId dirtbag.

AII by yourseIf.

This is the moment you Iive for.

-Okay.

-Okay?

Okay.

Hey, HaIIoween, you smoke?

-Yeah.

It's so earIy, Bridget.

Yeah, I'm working here.

Isn't that what you're doing down there?

Yes. That's what I'm doing.

l've been going over the notes

that you've been sending in.

This BeIinda St. Sing,

the ex-girIfriend he said died in an accident.

Is that her name?

Yeah, that's right. Why?

You're past curfew.

-Were those girIs with you?

-1 00 % Arnau.

Hey, you know that girI your boyfriend

was going back in time to save, BeIinda?

Yeah?

WeII, she's aIive and weII.

Lives about an hour away.

How? What do you mean?

Bridget caIIed and set up an interview.

I think your IittIe boyfriend is seriousIy nuts.

Yeah, I know, he's totaIIy nuts.

He's compIeteIy crazy. I know.

So she's aIive. Okay.

-I wanna do the interview.

-That's fine.

You sure you got this, kiddo?

Yeah?

-Darius?

-Hi.

-Hi. Nice to meet you.

-Nice to meet you.

Come on in.

I've never been interviewed

by a magazine before.

He worked at Anderson's,

which was the restaurant I waited at

aII throughout coIIege,

and he was reaIIy nice.

Different just than the typicaI guys, I guess.

So how Iong were you guys together?

WeII, we were never reaIIy together, together.

You never dated?

I mean, I wouIdn't caII it dating. He was...

He was one of those guys, who

you kind of know has a crush on you,

but he's reaIIy nice

and so you're reaIIy nice back.

But he wasn't the type of guy

who you couId easiIy

fit into your Iife, you know,

with your friends and everything.

He was

weird, I guess we've aII

had one of those guys, right?

Yeah. Yeah, I know what you mean.

So, then what happened?

Do you guys stiII taIk?

After that, I started dating Rob,

who was my Iast boyfriend

before I met my husband,

and then Kenneth quit the restaurant.

I didn't see him for a whiIe after that.

Then there was the accident.

Accident?

Kenneth ran his car

into my boyfriend's house.

There was a big dent

under the kitchen window.

My God!

So I convinced Rob to just Iet him go

and we...

We toId the poIice it was a hit and run.

I haven't seen him since then.

But you said you've seen him recentIy.

How is he?

He's good.

Excuse me. Darius?

Can we have a moment of your time?

Nothing to be aIarmed about.

We'd just Iike to ask a few questions

about Kenneth CaIIoway.

Guys? We're from SeattIe Magazine.

We're just here doing a story on this guy.

We're not invoIved

with what he's invoIved with.

What do you want with him?

He's been contacting government scientists

on the Internet,

asking questions

about our particIe acceIerator in BerkeIey.

We've been investigating CaIIoway

for a coupIe of years now

and we suspect him of being an agent.

He can't be a spy.

He was arrested in CoIorado for

breaking into a nucIear physics Iaboratory.

And then there was the recent robbery

at a medicaI research center here.

Oh, yeah? And what did he take?

Are you sure it was him

that broke into the medicaI research pIace?

You have evidence?

We're confident.

He hasn't been back to his house

in the past 24 hours.

Give us a caII if you hear from him?

WiII do.

-Thank you.

-Thank you.

So, what's your story about?

The story.

I don't know anymore, actuaIIy.

You aII right?

You sure?

Yeah.

Wake up, SIeeping Beauty.

Kenneth?

Kenneth? I'm coming in.

Darius?

Hey. What are you doing here?

Everything's set.

We move the machine to the Iaunch site.

Departure is at 5:00 p.m.

How'd you get in here anyway? The spooks

are aII over me. It's crazy out there.

I had to sneak in through the back.

Hey, we need to taIk.

About Iast night. I know.

Last night

was a thunderboIt.

But I reaIize

our working reIationship

became compIicated,

so for now, maybe we just

re-focus and concentrate on the mission.

Whose house is this?

It's my house. My parents Ieft it to me.

Where are the Iasers?

Can you show me the Iasers?

What's wrong with your voice?

-Where's the time machine?

-The time machine is at the Iaunch site.

Oh, right, it's at the Iaunch site.

Darius.

What are you doing?

I taIked to those guys who are foIIowing you.

And they toId me

that you stoIe those Iasers because

you're some kind of spy or something.

That's perfect. Let them think that,

it works in our favor. It's better. SeriousIy.

I aIso taIked to BeIinda.

-What?

-Yeah.

-You did not taIk to BeIinda.

-Yeah, I did.

I taIked to BeIinda. I was just at her house.

No! No!

What are you doing?

She's aIive! She's aIive! Okay.

This is good. Okay.

This means the mission must have

been successfuI, and we have saved her

-and we've come back to the present...

-Hey, hey...

Hey, you can be honest with me, okay?

-I reaIIy Iike you.

-Okay.

Yes. But this is the thing.

It's a compIicated science
