(DOGS BARKING, GROWLING)

Come on, come on, come on!

Go, go, go!

(DOGS BARKING)

Eden, the waist!

ADAM:
- Take on my waist!

EDEN:
- Okay!

ADAM:
Come on!

(BORDER POLICE APPROACHING)

Hold on!

I'm holding you!

Don't let go!

Hold on, hold on!

I'm so sorry.

The guy fell.

(HORN HONKING,

BRAKES SQUEALING)

No, no, wait!

Don't do this to me! Ugh!

No, no!

ADAM:
- Oh, please, no!

AGENT:
- Get in the car!

ADAM:
(YELLING) Ahh, no!

Don't do this to me!

AGENT:
Here's the deal...

You give us the complete

anti-aging cream formula

...and if you attempt to

contact Ms. Moore

...charges against her

will be reinstated.

Do I make myself clear,

Mr. Kirk?

(ADAM COUGHING AND PANTING)

ADAM:
So that's it.

They won.

And I lost.

- I just lost everything.

(SAD PIANO MUSIC)

They took aunt Becky

and they took Eden from me.

Oh, it's hard to accept that I will

never see Eden again.

I was naive to think that

I can change the world.

You know, up there,

...they always win.

And down here...

Well, we always lose.

So I guess I just

go back to my life...

...to my world.

But I will never...

...ever...

...forget her.

Gently does it...

Victory!

BOY 1:
So, is it true

everyone's rich up top?

BOY 2:
Don't you know,

it's total paradise up there!

ADAM:
Paradise?

Well, guys, I...

I don't think so, you know.

Th... they might be

rich, sure, but...

...it's definitely not paradise.

Hey let me look at that, huh?

What do you think, we should,

uh, think we should make this fly?

BOYS:
Yeah.

Oh yeah, we'll give it a boost?

Alright, hold on a bit.

Alright, now try.

Go on, throw it.

(PHONE RINGING)

(ANSWERING MACHINE CLICKS)

PAULA:
Hey, Eden, it's Paula.

Are you still sick?

You haven't shown up

for four days.

Did you get those strange

flowers we sent over?

I think they come from floor zero.

Let me know, okay?

I hope you're alright.

Bye.

(ANSWERING MACHINE STOPS)

(DOOR BELL)

Bob?

Boruchowitz?

Yeah?

I'm Eden.

Moore.

I need your help.

(OIL HEAVILY TRICKLING,

INDUSTRIAL NOISE)

(DOOR OPENING)

BOB:
Yeah! Fantastic!

Bob... Bob!

What?

You think you're the only one

who can go upside down?

(BOB LAUGHING)

You won't get rid of me!

Easy as that, old buddy!

How did you make this?

I mean, how...

how did you do it?

Hey, hey, hey...

Check this out!

(BOTH LAUGHING)

Did you make a vest or what?

I can't believe it!

Oh, oh!

Put me down, sweetie!

You're not even wearing a vest!

- No, no...

- Where's the weights?

No, no, no... We're 90%

water, right?

So I combine

upper and lower inversion...

with a hyper... infusion, yeah?

Now, you know this better than I do.

But, but the breakthrough, man,...

the... the breakthrough, ahh...

Ahh, man, I'm jabbering...

The pro... (PANTING)

The problem is, right,...

The effect only lasts an hour,

right? I'll improve it.

Oh... you, you my friend...

Hey, you...

you have a rendezvous.

What's this?

"CAFE DOS MUNDOS"

You better not go dressed like that.

Hey, did you tell him?

Hey, another thing...!

The cream...

Well, thanks to your stamps

...I bought the patent

under the name 'Albert & Co.'

...before...

TransWorld.

(BOB GIGGLING)

Nice! Nice!

(ORCHESTRAL MUSIC, HEROIC)

EDEN:
Adam!

Eden!

I can't believe it!

How did you get down here?

EDEN:
Bob found a way

to bring me down.

ADAM:
I can't believe it.

I... I... I don't know

what happened to you?

Are you okay?

(WHISPERING) I'm pregnant.

We're having twins.

ADAM:
I can't believe it!

I can't believe it!

How long can you

stay down here for?

Forever, maybe.

Bob said

it's because I'm pregnant.

He said you'd understand

...how this makes me different.

I love you.

I love you.

(MUSIC CONTINUING)

ADAM:
We didn't realize yet the

repercussions of what we had done.

Our love would forever

alter the course of history.

But that's another story...
