Wait a minute.

Washington? Fireworks in July?

Independence Day. It has to be.

4th of July.

And the attack

occurred a week later.

Four plus seven...

The 11th of July.

You think so?

It's all we've got.

We've got to go back to

July 11, 1886.

Professor, it's risky.

Cole is a murderer.

Maybe you should not go back.

Lady, I must be very honest with you.

There's not much here for me.

Not now, not for a long time.

I feel like my entire life I've been...

expecting this moment.

I don't know if I could go

back to feeling like this.

You must take me to 1886.

You can not deny me this.

Come with me.

Press your hand here. Here.

What will I feel?

For a moment...

it feels that the entire

universe is ours.

11 JULY 1886

Welcome to 1886.

Wow. Looks the same.

Oh yes. Look here.

- My car.

- Left in the 20th century.

I hope I remembered

to turn the lights out.

If. it was on the eleventh,

it hasn't arrived yet.

The song said it

came from the west.

The attack took place right there.

This is the perfect place for an ambush.

They come right out

from under the sun.

Right now, they could be here, hidding.

Let's get out of here.

Keep the horses quiet or

I'll quiet them forever.

You sure they're coming?

They will come.

And if there is no gold?

It's a stagecoach with escort.

What the hell do you think

they're protecting, idiot.

Cole must be here too.

- Here comes the coach.

- Get down.

Woou! Woou! Woou!

Dismount.

Get the stagecoach out of here!

Where is the stranger?

There he is!

Cole.

Of course!

He eliminates the man who

historically saved the day.

And transforms a frustrated

attack into a successful...

veritable massacre.

Not if we can help it.

Professor.

Professor!

We cannot let him win.

Professor!

Don't do it.

He'll kill you!

Professor!

Step back, Mr. President.

- Get down, Mr. President.

- Watch out, Mr. President.

Cover me.

Crawford!

Crawford.

Cole.

Please stand back, Mr. President.

Major, please.

Dismount, sir.

Draw, professor.

After you, sir.

Congratulations, Professor Mckenzie.

You succeeded just in time.

Are you alright, Mr. President?

Well, I can continue my mandate.

Who is this man.

I'd like to thank him.

I don't know, sir.

Major. Go get him,

he deserves a medal.

Yes, sir.

- Major.

- Yes, sir.

It is best to wait a bit.

- He's very hurt, sir.

- No. I'm fine, thank you.

Are you sure?

Have we met?

No.

Where do you come from?

We are just making

passage through the hills.

I thank you.

And thank you, stranger.

You're welcome.

Take care of yourself, please.

You too.

A little higher. Left a little

Just a little more.

Slightly to the right.

It's perfect.

They're beautiful, aren't they?

Yes, they are.

You will have to take

good care of them.

For both of us.

Going back east?

Yes, to the east.

Take me with you.

You're not of my time.

It's against the rules.

Stay here.

Nor am I of your time.

Sorry, I can not.

Do you understand?

Yes.

I suppose.

Then why the long face?

Sometimes...

Sometimes in my life it

seems that when...

I get used to something it goes.

You'll be allright.

I'll miss you.

And I you.

Promise that if any time I

need your help...

I can come back and rent you a bit?

Of course.

What?

I can not break the rules but...

I can bend them.

Wait a minute.

Goodbye, professor .

- Through the window, Dad

- Through the window, pal

Here is your essay

it's very good

Why would a boy like you

who knows so much about...

the old west want to

write about the zoo.

Let's teach him how to open

car doors first...

before trying more difficult things.

Agreed.

Give us a kiss and

we'll call it a deal.

OK. See you soon.

Dont spend too much time

playing with them...

- guns, partner.

- Goodbye, Daddy

No!

Drive. Get out of here, quickly

Park.

- Billy, are you okay?

- Yes. - My God Scott

It's almost as if...

you knew.
