187

00:
16:46,156 -- 00:16:48,084

...be forewarned.

188

00:
16:49,690 -- 00:16:53,856

Remember that day?

You were not happy. Remember that?

189

00:
16:54,942 -- 00:16:56,073

I know.

190

00:
16:56,632 -- 00:16:59,334

iOkay, my mystery correspondent,/i

iI get it./i

191

00:
16:59,520 -- 00:17:02,620

iJust in case you really are/i

iwhere and when you think you are.../i

192

00:
17:02,837 -- 00:17:04,270

i... you'll need this./i

193

00:
17:04,465 -- 00:17:07,503

iThere was a freak late snow that spring/i

iand everyone got sick./i

194

00:
17:07,690 -- 00:17:11,954

iSo plenty of rest, lots of fluids./i

iDoctor's orders./i

195

00:
17:12,178 -- 00:17:14,815

Snow. Right.

196

00:
17:19,119 -- 00:17:21,853

Yeah, come to papa.

197

00:
18:50,508 -- 00:18:52,101

Jackie.

198

00:
18:53,181 -- 00:18:54,805

Jack.

199

00:
18:55,178 -- 00:18:58,056

Jack, come on. Come on, girl.

Come on, come on. Jack.

200

00:
19:40,672 -- 00:19:43,553

"Impossible, I know. Not possible...

201

00:
19:43,961 -- 00:19:45,794

...but it's happening."

202

00:
19:55,357 -- 00:19:57,012

Okay.

203

00:
20:00,916 -- 00:20:02,477

Where am I?

204

00:
20:06,909 -- 00:20:08,866

Very clever.

205

00:
20:10,715 -- 00:20:12,580

"The lake house."

206

00:
20:12,989 -- 00:20:15,745

The lake house. As you can see,

I, too, am at the lake house...

207

00:
20:15,908 -- 00:20:18,822

...but I'm getting tired of these games

so I'm leaving, okay? Bye.

208

00:
20:18,982 -- 00:20:20,111

Thank you. Bye.

209

00:
20:22,482 -- 00:20:25,425

Maybe we should

introduce ourselves properly.

210

00:
20:29,732 -- 00:20:33,292

iI'm a doctor,/i

idedicated to curing the sick./i

211

00:
20:33,632 -- 00:20:35,193

iAt least, trying to./i

212

00:
20:36,245 -- 00:20:38,392

iI'm an architect. I like to build./i

213

00:
20:38,611 -- 00:20:41,186

iAnd while I wouldn't say/i

imy current project is ideal.../i

214

00:
20:41,404 -- 00:20:46,066

i... it allows me to be here, in this place,/i

iand that's enough for now./i

215

00:
20:46,383 -- 00:20:50,028

iBut tell me something. If you're working/i

iin a hospital in Chicago now.../i

216

00:
20:50,223 -- 00:20:52,923

i... where were you before, in my time?/i

217

00:
20:53,631 -- 00:20:55,129

iTwo years ago, in your time.../i

218

00:
20:55,321 -- 00:20:59,092

i... I was working/i

iin internal medicine in Madison./i

219

00:
21:01,895 -- 00:21:03,088

iTell me about the future./i

220

00:
21:04,015 -- 00:21:06,528

iWhat's it like in the year 2006?/i

221

00:
21:07,763 -- 00:21:10,277

iI'm afraid the world's/i

ipretty much the same./i

222

00:
21:11,388 -- 00:21:15,062

iOf course, we all dress in shiny metal/i

ijump suits and drive flying cars.../i

223

00:
21:15,257 -- 00:21:18,693

i... and no one talks anymore/i

ibecause we can read each other's minds./i

224

00:
21:18,884 -- 00:21:21,732

iBut the truth is, man from the past.../i

225

00:
21:21,956 -- 00:21:25,201

i... not much has really changed/i

iin 2006./i

226

00:
21:26,869 -- 00:21:30,274

iSpeaking of the past, though,/i

iI've been thinking about the paw prints./i

227

00:
21:30,465 -- 00:21:34,328

i- How is that possible?/i

- Well, I think we have the same dog.

228

00:
21:35,041 -- 00:21:37,365

iOh, yeah? What's yours like?/i

229

00:
21:37,591 -- 00:21:41,059

iAccording to the vet,/i

imine is eight years old in my time.../i

230

00:
21:41,278 -- 00:21:43,111

i...six in yours./i

231

00:
21:43,579 -- 00:21:48,640

iShe's skinny, has sad eyes, snores,/i

iand sleeps like a person./i

232

00:
21:48,834 -- 00:21:50,950

iI don't know why, but I call her Jack./i

233

00:
21:51,139 -- 00:21:52,973

Hello, Jack.

234

00:
21:55,899 -- 00:21:58,256

iIt's nice out here./i

235

00:
21:58,510 -- 00:22:01,486

iLet's not go out for dinner./i

iLet's stay here./i

236

00:
22:01,675 -- 00:22:03,456

- Hey.

i- We have to eat./i

237

00:
22:03,642 -- 00:22:06,029

What are you doing?

You're supposed to be asleep.

238

00:
22:06,373 -- 00:22:07,474

iI'll cook./i

239

00:
22:08,340 -- 00:22:10,299

iI thought you didn't like to cook./i

240

00:
22:10,952 -- 00:22:12,974

iNo, I don't like to cook./i

241

00:
22:13,165 -- 00:22:15,026

Is she gonna marry him?

242

00:
22:15,190 -- 00:22:18,532

- What do you think?

- I don't know. He's kind of old.

243

00:
22:18,692 -- 00:22:21,637

i- Where are you going?/i

- Okay, he's not that old.

244

00:
22:22,165 -- 00:22:23,851

My mom's last boyfriend was bald.

245

00:
22:24,499 -- 00:22:25,786

He was nice...

246

00:
22:25,942 -- 00:22:28,519

...but my mom didn't marry him.

- No?

247

00:
22:28,738 -- 00:22:31,378

"There's always something better

coming around the corner."

248

00:
22:31,566 -- 00:22:33,744

That's what she says.

249

00:
22:34,146 -- 00:22:37,422

Maybe that's what that lady should do.

Wait for something better...

250

00:
22:37,615 -- 00:22:40,350

...to come around the corner.

- Maybe.

251

00:
22:42,194 -- 00:22:45,661

But if she's not careful,

she could spend her whole life waiting.

252

00:
22:46,523 -- 00:22:48,672

iDo you want me to bring/i

ianything back with me?/i

253

00:
22:48,828 -- 00:22:51,248

iYes. What about/i

ia nice bottle of wine.../i

254

00:
22:51,963 -- 00:22:53,398

i... to celebrate?/i

255

00:
22:53,622 -- 00:22:56,405

i- What time shall I come back?/i

i- Seven o'clock./i

256

00:
22:56,599 -- 00:22:59,145

iSorry I haven't made it/i

ito the mailbox lately./i

257

00:
22:59,335 -- 00:23:02,960

iIt's been a long week. All night shifts./i

258

00:
23:03,207 -- 00:23:06,054

iGood to hear from you./i

iI thought you left me./i

259

00:
23:06,246 -- 00:23:09,682

iYou should know that you're/i

imy only connection to the future./i

260

00:
23:10,270 -- 00:23:13,246

iHow come we never talk/i

iabout the things we like?/i

261

00:
23:13,559 -- 00:23:16,773

iWell, let's see./i

iReading the classics to Jack./i

262

00:
23:16,997 -- 00:23:19,877

i- Who's his favorite?/i

i- Dostoyevsky./i

263

00:
23:20,070 -- 00:23:23,444

iFor me, this city,/i

ion a day when the light is so clear.../i

264

00:
23:23,635 -- 00:23:25,133

i... that I can touch every detail.../i

265

00:
23:25,325 -- 00:23:27,773

i... every brick and window/i

iin the buildings I love./i

266

00:
23:27,964 -- 00:23:32,197

iCome on, take a walk with me/i

ithis Saturday. Let me show you./i

267

00:
23:32,389 -- 00:23:35,553

iYou're crazy. Why are you going/i

ithrough all this trouble for me?/i

268

00:
23:35,739 -- 00:23:38,522

iNo trouble. Summer's here./i

269

00:
23:50,173 -- 00:23:53,547

iOkay, your turn. Favorite things./i

270

00:
23:53,739 -- 00:23:56,348

iWhere to start? Okay./i

271

23:56,536 -- 00:23:59,381

iWhen I smell the flowers/i

ibefore I see them./i

272

00:
23:59,575 -- 00:24:03,535

iWhen it starts to rain/i

ijust as the picnic is ending./i

273

00:
24:03,723 -- 00:24:07,284

iAnd I love the smell of Jack's paws./i
