Hi, Todd Maher, E-Harmony, how can I help you today?
Hi, I can't seem to leave a wink to someone.
I don't know, it's my page broken? Do I may to have a broken page, or...?
I've never heard of that, but ok ...
You're trying to use your E-Harmony account for the first time? - I am.
Ok, I'm looking at your profile.
We've a pretty intrincate matching algorithm that ...
... which distinguish us from other online dating services.
Yes, I like that.
Actually, I'm just trying to leave a wink to one person. Cheryl Melhoff.
She started in my division of work about a month ago.
And I overheard anyone saying she's on your website.
Ok, that's unique. But let me ask you:
You left a lot of this stuff, like the "been there, done that" section, you left it blank.
Yeah I think I skipped.
Ok, you gotta help me out here man. Don't skip stuff.
Ok well, I haven't really been anywhere noteworthy or mentionable.
Have you done anything "noteworthy or mentionable?"
Hello? You still there?
Can you hang on a second?
Go, go, go! Get out, get out! It's gonna blow!
Go go!
Chips! Over here!
Chips? Thank you. How did you know about the building?
I heard a barking and a incredible smelly gas.
Oh, I hope it's ok, I engineered a prosthesis for Chips while I was sprinting down the stairwell.
A little hip-joint assembly with a throttling lock and an interior pelvic bend.
Glad you went there.
I just live by the ABC's: "Adventurous, brave, creative."
Everything I want in a man.
My man. Hey, my man, are you still there?
Hey.
What? Did you pass out or...?
No, I just like zoned out for a second.
Oh, ok. Do you do that a lot?
Normal amount, I guess.
I gotta run, sorry.
Oh, ok, but we need a lot more...
Hey, bad day to be late. We just got acquired.
What? - Yeah, over the weekend.
Walter, happy birthday!
42 years old!
Odessa, what are you doing here?
My major and your favorite Clementine cake.
Aren't you supposed to be at the retirement place with her, getting the piano moved in?
Yes, I was there, it's like half way done. Piano's...
...out of the van, it's on the street. Everything is fine.
I just got a phone call, I got a really big audition, so can you go to finish it?
No, I can't. I'm late.
Walter, I don't think you're seeing this from what I need.
What do you need?
I need to be Rizzo in Greece.
I don't understand that.
My audition, Rizzo. - Rizzo?
She's tough and tender.
Do me a favor please, make sure your mom's piano's gets moved in all the way, alright?
Don't go to Rizzo.
Oh, thanks Walter. Happy birthday!
Guess what, we just got acquired. - Yeah I've heard.
Yeah, there's gonna be changes. Downsizing of...
...us sitting in some kind of "dot com" thing possibly...
I wonder how this thing goes down, how the transition is gonna play out.
I can probably tell you.
Ted Hendricks, managing-director of the transition.
Hey. Tim Naughton, sales.
Gary Mannheim, graphic design.
And what do you do, cake-man?
I huh... I do the huh... the cake is just for today at night. Cake-men what you do...
I.., I deal "darkly"... - "Darkly??"
Directly with the LIFE support unit.
I'm sorry, I was really getting into this song and stopped listening to you.
I was saying, you know who looks good in a beard? Dumbledore, not you.
Guy? Guy?
What do you do?
I'm a negative asset manager.
Worth the wait.
Ted, Donny.
Are you feeling tough? - I'm feeling good.
We all are gonna have to make some tough calls ahead.
You been here before?
Hey. - Hey.
How was your weekend? - I had an awesome weekend!
What did you do this weekend?
Let's see ...
I bathed with an Arctic mountain runner...
While my Latin lover recited a verse to me.
It's fun. - I know.
Actually I waited for my refrigerator that never came.
I'm so sorry. I'm gonna call you later. - Ok.
The ice sheet (?) moves like a woman.
I'm Walter Mitty.
Cheryl Melhoff, where have you been?
Testing the limits of the human spirit.
I want to climb your hair and test that out.
Perhaps I can contact you, possibly through my poetry falcon.
Poetry falcon, I like that.
Do you think if I hit him with a paperclip, would he move?
I do not know.
Do it. - Oh, hello.
I actually threw a ton of those at him boss.
And did he move? - No, I missed.
Great story.
Ground control to Major Tom.
Can you hear me, Major Tom?
Move on, as they say. - Yes.
Conference rooms, more of these stations here where ...
... people sort of do their thing.
Morning, Hernando.
There's a new headcoach (?), did you hear?
Yes, I met him.
We're going to be evaluated.
They won't be able to, we do intrincate details back here.
Yes.
It's tricky and bewildering.
I should evaluate you, you should evaluate me.
I don't think they will let us do that. - I'm just saying.
Hey, how long is this neg roll been here, out in the open?
It Shawn O'Connell. - It came in this morning.
There's a present too. He sent you a present, on your desk.
Shawn O'Connell still shoots his own films.
That's also for me in the (??)
Hey, do you wanna mount this?
Seriously? Sure.
- Heard rumblings life's done.
- I wanna say thanks. Take a look inside.
- I gift for all the years of hard work. Sorry about the neg roll.
- I spilled some blood on it while self stitching a gun wound in my abdomen, but ...
number 25 is my best ever. The quintessence of life.
- I think I trust you'll get it where it needs to go. You always do.
What you get?
It's a wallet.
With LIFE's motto on it.
This is for you.
Where is 25? - It's not there.
Hey, we need a negative 25.
Shawn O'Connell sent a telegram.
Not an actual telegram, a 100-year-old dude came a little (?).
So there is a 4 meeting, bring the 25.
It's here, somehow we will find it.
Ok, make a contact sheet of these frames as soon as you can, and don't say anything to anyone.
I just want to inform you all, huh, reluctantly that...
I guess just start back from the beginning.
Ok, I just want to inform you all reluctantly...
...that this month's issue will be our last.
What? - Yes, what?
Yes. Sad news for sure.
Now, you are all valuable employees.
But as we undergo this transition to a LIFE online, we wanted to be candid with you.
That huh some of you will be determined not in the vital employees
to the new... to the new partnership.
We'll be deciding which of those positions will be remaining with us over the course of the next week.
And also, we feel sad about that. As you can see.
Now, for some good news, we are very excited ... - All right, Don.
Ted Hendricks, managing-director of the transition.
Never fun this stage, but we do have ahead of us ...
the privilige of publishing what will be the very last issue of LIFE magazine.
And for the final issue, we just received a telegram from Shawn O'Connell.
Who has never, I'm told, been willing to speak with the executives here.
Well he broke his long silence and shared his thoughts with us, through that old man...
Shawn O'Connell. I expect full consideration of negative 25 for cover.
My most grand, the quintessence of life.
The.. What is it? What's that?
Ok, so our cover will probably be the most famous ever, because it really will have the big quintessence of all time.
Very full and so rich?
So let's see this thing, huh? Let's see it!
Can we ... What am I doing up here? What's going on?
We'll receive the nag of negative assets, this gentleman back there.
Ah, Major Tom. Can I get that?
Huh it's being processed.
All right, let's do it. Let's process some quintessence.
Come on! Go! Now. That's why I'm clapping.
When are we gonna go to press? - Two and a half weeks.
- Hi. - Hi.
I'm Walter.
Cheryl. - Mitty.
Melhoff. - Yes.
You work on photocams, right?
I do. Negative assets. - Yes.
Processing the last cover photo, that's a big deal.
Yes, it's a ... There is a little glitch, mini... on that on right now.
I want to say to you, do you maybe have an address for Sean O'Connell?
It's not really that easy with him, he moves around so much, I don't...
Yeah, he's on a freelance, I don't know where and he doesn't have a phone.
No phone, he's old school.
- Yeah. - Yeah.
But, you know, why don't I go check with Peg...
I don't know, she just processed a check for him.
And we can track his pay out maybe, find where he might be?
Cool, cool.
- Ok. - Ok.
Walter. - Yes.
- I'm on it. - Thanks.
- Oh you coming? - Yes.
- I'm not, yes I have to stay.
There's the contact sheet.
What do you see?
This photo cluster, these three, they are the only printable ones.
He took one at the same he took the 25.
They could give us a clue on where Sean is.
Put them up alright? - Cool.
Hey! Walter, right?
Yes.
So I called Peg about Sean, she's gonna get back to me.
Oh, hey, thanks.
Cool glasses. Very "sand people".
These? No, these are loupes, they are for work. They magnify the huh...
Is that the 25? Can I see?
That's, uh ... no.
I can't quite find the 25, just now.
You can't find it?
Yes, that's why I'm trying to find Sean.
And tracking him down, somehow with his other images.
His whereabouts? - Yes.
I took this class writting the mystery novel.
Anyway they say the keys to add (?)
You connect the clues and then scatter them to...
them seem unrelated. There's like a whole science to it.
- Can I? - Sure.
Ok, a thumb.
Yes, it's an unknown thumb.
Ok. Water?
Just water I guess? - Yes, just water.
Ok, and ...
Like a curved piece of... some kind of... part of a thing.
But hey you know, the thing with clues might teach you (?)
You're gonna need one good one and then to connect them,
you will be like oh, yes, of course, a thumb, water, I should have seen this the whole time...
Yes, yes. It would be like... like...
Anyway, I shoud go back and try to not get fired.
Hey, Cheryl.
I've something creative I've working on too.
A side project.
Walter, it's amazing!
Walter.
I just said I'll let you know when I hear back from Peg.
Ok, thank you.
Hey, Odessa.
What?
Is there a larger apartment available, that a piano can fit in?
Because it's a memento of my mom...
That's a really big...
Most people sell their really big mementos
... before they moved here.
My dad bought it for her the day they were married and means a lot to her.
That's a villa. A little more costly, but it has a more generous piano kinda sized living room for you though.
Yes, this is good.
I'm moving you, I need first month's, last month's and full deposit, that's 4,700.
Great. - Yeah, ok. Yes, we'll take it.
I got the paperwork. The new villa comes opened in 3 weeks, I guess.
Happy birthday.
Stretch Armstrong!
It's cool. - Yes.
Isn't that awesome? This was your favorite thing when we were little, do you remember?
- Yes. - You wanna do it?
- Yeah, all right. - Come on, stretch. Come on, come on!
Come on, we gotta go.
Still I'm ok, but hey I'm not the Queen of Sheeba.
We got room for your piano. You can stay at my place until it's ready.
I won't be cramping your scene?
My scene? No.
Walter! Look what I found!
This is from you and Tim Linderman.
Do you remember when we were gonna backpack Europe?
Man, what's in here?
That's my Walter box, so leave my work and nick-nacks and keeps it
You made the best mixed tapes.
Oh man. - What? What's that?
Travel's journal, dad gave me.
You should donate that.
Because you never use it, to a poor child.
A poor kid is gonna travel to Europe?
Look at you and your dad.
Is that my tournament one?
He was so proud of this.
Sharing your accomplishments with the whole world.
It's from the fair of small town, Mom.
We really liked that nifty Mohawk.
You know, when your dad died and you went to work in that pizza place ...
The one that was named ater a father... Had a father kind of name.
Papa John's, yes, delivery.
And I thought perhaps that he was very sad for you working...
working at a restaurant named after a father, and your father just died.
I never even thought about it.
Maybe because I didn't call him "Papa."
Your weird style.
That wasn't my style, that's uniform. KFC.
My work of bee.
I worked in the water.
Ok, you know, I gotta go.
We're getting you into the villa situation ok?
Ok. - Good, everybody.
My work of bee and my performance (?)
Thank you, Mom.
Hernando. - Hey.
I don't see anything. - Upper middle, it's faint, there's a word in the water.
I'm getting nervous, Walter.
Hey, this is an ocean. That's a boat.
"Erkigsnek", he's near this boat.
(...), check them out.
Final cover. Big responsibility.
Oh is that my quintessence??
Huh, this is... No, we are prepping the wedding edges (?) on that, to start the process...
Really? Because it looks like you're playing with toys.
Oh, no, this is... this is a gift.
Yes, the negative needs to go through... - I'm sorry.
- I'm sorry, I can't have a professional conversation with you.
You and your little blonde pal.
Let's... You can't walk through the office with that. Let's have it.
Put it away!
Give me the toy man. - No! - Now!
Hey! This is a place of business, not a place of jellymen toys!
- Get off it! - No, I'm taking it!
You can't just take my stuff!
- It's mine, give it to me! - No!
Stop fiddling with sweeties and little man!
I'm trying to do my job!
You're the tin man? You little oil can?
Jesus.
Picture.
Hello? - Hey!
Hey. - What's up?
Who is this? - Tod, from E-Harmony.
Oh, hi.
...that I was saying we need to beef your profile up? Make, you know, not blank?
Real quick let's build you "been there, done that".
Ok, huh "been there" ... huh...
Phoenix, I forgot why.
Then Nashville,
but that was the airport on the way to Phoenix, so I don't know if that ...
Hey man I was thinking...
If you work with this girl, why don't you just humanly invite her out?
No, no, no, I'm trying to do like a Pina Colada song thing.
Pina Colada song?
Yeah, you know, a guy put some ad looking for a lover, and then ...
His wife answers it, and turns out they are soul mates and they don't even know it.
And they end up making love.
Is this a song? Can you sing a little bit?
Yeah, you know, "You like pina coladas, and getting caught in the rain..." You know that song?
I gotta go.
Hey. - Hey.
Is that another clue?
Yes, this one is ok. There's a boat there, I think.
- Erkig ... - ...snack.
Erkigsnek? - Yes.
- It sounds like a real clue. - Yes, it's the boat's name.
- Have you Googled it? - I was on my way to.
Yes, and you see the first 2 letters at the port city ...
- Buffering.
So, the park. I gotta run up there and pick up my son,
he's skateboarding with a friend.
Do you wanna walk up with me?
Starting now?
Yes, starting now. - Ok.
We're gonna figure this out, It's a big deal. You lost Sean O'Connell.
Yes, I used to work at Bisco.
Then I had a change.
Then I decided to apply for LIFE, thought it would be more colorful and regular, I guess.
I just liked the idea of it.
I like the motto of the company. You know?
- Too see the world ... - Things dangerous to come to, to see behind walls...
I got this. Sean.
- He gave this to you? - Yeah.
I like that, "to draw closer..."
So what's he like in person?
Sean? - Yes.
Well I haven't actually met him. I mean we talk a lot, but ...
I've been his point guy here ever since I started.
How long it goes out?
16 years.
16 years? Oh my gosh, wow.
You have nothing to worry about (...). I've been here for a month.
Last in, first out, right?
Oh, sorry.
Rich's dad.
Hold up.
The former... newly former ...
But we've been... sort of... I don't know, I'm not getting that.
So what kind of skateboard does your son have?
I have no idea.
It's all (?) I don't know.
No, I just ... I used to... kind of enter that scene, like...
Skateboarding scene? - Yes.
Hi, Peg.
Yes, Sean O'Connell. We actually need to find him.
Yes, in a hurry (?).
Kickflip. - Yes.
That's a good for the repertoire.
I'm Walter. - Rich.
Yes, we think he might know something or have an asset we need.
You just gotta get a little more snap. Get that thing up there.
You want me to show you something? - Sure.
- Here.
Like trucks - Thanks.
Check this out.
Regarding the jump ...
Yes, we've finished processing this April work order.
Yes, it's kinda important.
Did you forward the job 10-90?
(??)
- Here we go. - That was awesome.
So it could be the place. Ok. - Thanks Walter.
Thanks, Peg. Alright.
So, huh, Sean is definitely not in New York.
Peg said she sent multiples, I don't know if you know, hard works with him...
She sends copies because we never know where he's gonna be.
And this week she sent 10-90 to Princeton, New Jersey.
Oh, great. Train line.
And one to Greenland, just in case.
Greenland, the country?
That's a ... I can't take the train though.
No.
Maybe he's in Jersey. - Yes.
Is your phone done with buffering with that ship's name?
Yes, look! There it is, Nuuk, Greenland.
It's ... - Yeah!
Come on, it's a good lead. You should follow that up.
Yeah, follow that up in Greenland.
Yeah, why not? Go, go after the case.
Sorry, it's my huh... It's Phil again.
Maybe he found out the wallet, maybe I should get that.
Hey buddy. Rich, Rich, not so fast! Here, put it back on your head(?)
He did fall into a well (?)
But I don't care, I just wanna be with you. You know? - Really?
Let's run away together. Let's make every moment count, starting now.
Sweet.
Can I tell you something? - Anything.
I have that Benjamin Button's thing.
Where you get old and smaller, or whatever, and become a gradual old baby or something.
I didn't see the movie so I don't reall know how it works.
But I have it.
We can still build a life together. - Cool.
I love your snappy little suit.
I bought it at the dollar store. - Oh, cool.
My little heart is no bigger than a quarter.
But it's as full as Fort Knox.
You are the bravest man I've ever known.
I love you, baby. Not like a baby, like ...
Because you look like a little weird baby.
I get it.
Thank you for such a wonderful life.
Just nest it in here and die.
Goodbye, Walter.
Walter? Walter? Bye.
Oh, sorry, I was just ...
Where did you go?
I started huh thinking about ...
I know it's okay, I was probably boring you about my broken refrigerator.
No.
Rich! My son is running into the street, I have to go.
Yeah.
Oh, I want to tell you, huh ...
That song, Major Tom, back there when the bearded guy was ...
Here is what it's talking about.
That song is about courage and going into the unknown.
It's a cool song.
Rich!
Where is my thing?
Oh, it's in a Silverbath.
Duh duh duh, I don't even know what language you're speaking right now.
You know, you gotta take me seriously, I got a magazine to execute here.
And bosses to answer to.
So next time I see you, I see that picture, ok?
Hey, dream machine. Hello?
I just, I want a proof you heard me.
The next time I see you.
You'll see the picture.
Any luck, Hernando?
I've turned the place upside down, 25 is not here.
I've searched (?) too man.
It has never happened.
I'm telling you, it's nowhere, Walter.
I mean, maybe he did not even send it. Maybe it's still out there.
Walter.
Walter!
- Hi. - Hi.
Do you have any cars available?
Yeah, we have a blue one and a red one.
I'll take the red one.
- Hi. - Hi.
May I ask you... Coud someone received mail here?
An American, Sean O'Connell, I think he might have received a mail at this address.
You want a drink?
Ok yeah, I guess ...
A small bear.
So could somebody get mail here?
- Helimail. - Helimail?
We helicopter mail to the ships when they pass by.
We are a pub and a helipad.
Yeah, wait, the Erkigsnek?
Yeah, Erkigsnek. - Erkigsnek.
We flew mail to her Tuesday.
I speak from the heart... almost a good lady.
This song helps me to feel like I'm not alone.
Even though I'm pretty much am.
Come sing, everyone. Let's sing together.
Do you know who flies the mail? Do you have like a regular pilot or ...
Hey man, it's cold huh?
Hey. - I'm singing.
No, no, thank you. I'm alright.
Come on man go on.
Yeah I know, I just... I'm ok. Thank you.
I'm on a business trip, I'm working.
Come on man. This song is important to me.
Yeah. - Sing it. - Ok.
It sucks.
Do your work. - You don't have to push.
What if I poke you? - Don't poke me. Can you stop it?
Do you work man, do your work. I'm poking you. - Hey stop it.
Stop poking me!
What? - Don't poke me!
Hey, stop it!
Come on!
Wait, wait!
Your thumb!
Yeah, I flew a mail out to the Erkigsnek Tuesday. I gave him a ride.
He took that photo of my hand on the stick.
I'm just blown away I located your thumb.
There's like 8 people in Greenland.
It's a good place to find a thumb.
No cheering on leading that(?) - No.
You live in a country that only has 8 people in it.
So huh... - You're scrappy.
You are a scrappy (?), you know?
So, you're trying to find this guy? - Yes, yeah.
Yeah, well I'm flying some (?) in 5 minutes.
Maybe he still be on the boat.
Really? - Yes.
Maybe you can come with me.
Yeah, or maybe I could just call him on the boat phone.
Boat phone? - Yeah, the phone on the boat?
You mean the ship to shore(?)
Yeah, maybe I can just, you know, I could ask him on the ship to shore.
The radio is broken, that's why I'm flying out there.
You're flying out right now?
I'm just gonna finish my beer.
The weather doesn't look so great. - It is not.
It looks like there's a storm coming in.
Yes. - A (?) wind.
You're... you're just gonna finish your beer and then fly out the machine?
Yeah. I'm kinda nervous about the storm.
That's why I'm getting a couple of beers though.
Ok, I'm not gonna go with you.
Whatever.
See you later. - Ok, see you.
Ok.
Hi. Hello, everyone.
Hi. Hello, Nuuk.
Sorry, I'm nervous.
Ok.
This one goes out to Walter Mitty. He knows why.
I'm glad you came! Do you feel comfortable?
What? - Are you comfortable?
Not! - Hold on tight!
Look, there she is!
Where do we land? - We don't.
What? - We don't land!
Hey, Walter.
I want you to drop the radio parts into the prow.
You take it, it's right next to you.
This? - Yes.
Just jump in the boat. You got it?
Jump on the boat? - Yeah.
Make it quick, straight to her (?)
What do you mean, jump into the boat?
That would be the best way of (?)
I don't, I don't know.
Wait, what do you mean, jump into the boat? It looks fairly away.
You gotta go now. Go go go!
Go! Now!
No, Walter, I meant the other boat. The middle boat.
Help!
You've at least 1 minute before you freeze!
You're safe!
There is something here!
There's a fin here, I think!
We are travelling through a porpoise (?)
Don't fear the porpoise!
I don't think it's a porpoise.
I tell you, it's a porpoise.
Be friendly.
It will protect you from the sharks. - Ok!
I'm here.
Hey.
Ok, that's a shark.
That's what I said!
Jesus! - Stop (?) it.
Kill it! - It's not a porpoise.
It's not a porpoise.
Oh my God! Oh my God! That really happened.
Real face.
Sorry for touching your face, I just ... Oh my God.
Our pilot boat came in, they took him 4 hours ago, before the storm.
Took him where? - Iceland.
Is there any way that we can radio him? I...
It's very important that I discuss something with him.
You jumped into the ocean with our radio components.
They are lost, correct?
Yeah that's correct!
You're American? - Yes.
Excellent. Fonzi!
Come on, I'll find you some dry clothing, home slice.
Will this work for your items? - Oh, yes. Thank you.
Yeah I'll take this, buddy. - Ok.
You hungry? - Sure.
I got some kickass cake man.
Thank you. - Looking good.
You could keep it.
Hey, this is ...
This is Clementine cake.
It's Clementine cake, my mom makes these. - Yeah, Sean brought it.
Great!
Is this Sean's? - Yeah, he wrapped the cake in it.
This is a shoot itinerary.
It's a field itinerary for a photo...
Did he say anything about where he was going? - No, he didn't say much.
He was just taking pictures of these guys, you know.
He even gave me some tips for my Instagram.
Facebook friends? - Yes, sure.
What's, what's Eyjafallajokull?
Eyjafallajokull. - Excuse me? - Eyjafallajokull.
What is that?
It's in Iceland, it's a volcano.
A volcano? - Yes.
May 2, that's tomorrow. Do you think it's any way we could possibly land in Iceland?
Yeah. - Yeah?
Yeah, we have to, in the morning.
Great. - But you lost the radio.
Right, yeah, sorry. I mean, sorry, that's...
I'd be just happy to get to Ey ... - Eyjafallajokull.
Right.
See you on Sesame Street, man.
Ok, you're here, and this is Eyjafallajokull. It's 15 km.
You can take the bike, but you better get going man!
No, man. Hurry.
Because of...
What? I don't understand.
What it means man, is you have to hurry because there's a bunch of horny Chileans ...
... who want to go to a strip club.
There's only one bike.
Hurry up Walter, hurry! Go!
Go!
Stay cool bunny boy!
Hello? - Walter, what's up?
Tod? From E-Harmony? - Yeah, yeah, what's up man?
Not much. How have you been?
Good. It's early, I just got up man. I was thinking about you.
Where are you? - Los Angeles.
Hey, so your profile hasn't received any winks. Even though I put you've been in Phoenix.
Oh, I jumped out of a helicopter yesterday into the ocean.
And had a shark fight.
Yeah, listen, I was mentioning before...
people who daydream too much, they are not...
No, it's real, I really did.

Hello?
Hi.
Hi. Hey, do you speak English? - Hotel is closed.
Ok, yeah, huh... I'm just...
I'm trying to find this guy...
This man, Sean O'Connell. I think he possibly might have stayed here.
Yes, yes, yes. I got a plane for him.
About 15 minutes, he's on the airfield in Stekisolon.
The next town. - Okay, where is it? - Stekisolon.
Stekishumur? - Yes, no, no! - Is it straight down that way?
Thank you!
It's alright, I know him!
What's going on? Where's everybody?

Holy shit! Faster!
Thank's for coming back for me.
I really appreciate it. - I hope you find your man.
Thanks.
There's a motel near the pizza place there.
Good luck.
Photographic Account. - Cheryl.
This is Cheryl Melhoff. - Hey, this is Walter.
Hey, I walked down to say hi to you, about one hour ago, and you weren't there.
That's because, guess what, I'm in Iceland.
Iceland? Wait, wasn't it Greenland?
Yeah, yeah it was. - You know they are not the same place.
No, no, I went to Greenland, then I got in a fishing vessel tracking...
Sean and ended up here in Iceland.
You're in Iceland? - Yeah, in a Papa John's.
Hey, I got more clues. - What did you find?
There's a date that Sean wrote and some words on a cake wrapper.
Rajqawee, Buzkashi and Warlocks.
Wait, there's Papa John's in Iceland?
Yeah, I just had to... I just left. - Did you get kicked out?
No, I just needed to leave. Just the atmosphere and the...
...cups.
Hey, I was right on Sean's trail, then I lost him.
Strong little man.
Thanks.
No, Rajqawee means "strong little man".
Like for the other countries (?)
And Buzkashi is "goat hockey"?
And Warlocks...
Yeah, I was hoping we would connect.
So, you said you left Papa John's because of the cups?
Is there something I should be aware as a customer?
No, I just ... I worked there, that's all.
I used to have a mohawk and a backpack, and ...
I guess this idea of who I wanted to be and what I wanted to do ...
And, uh ... - Yes?
It's nothing. Just, uh ...
I was pretty close to my dad.
And he died when I was 17.
On a Tuesday, and we didn't have any savings.
So I got a haircut that Thursday and ...
A job... the same Thursday.
Papa John's? - Yes.
You dad liked you with a Mohawk?
He shaved my head.
Oh, that's a good dad move.
Yes.
Is it nice there? - Yes, it is.
It's really beautiful.
Well, it's pretty sucky here.
HR has already started letting some of the staff go, so it will a lot different when you get back.
Hey, I picked something up for huh...
I think I lost you.
You know, I'll catch you up when I see ya.
Great, ok. Alright.
Ok. Bye Walter. - Bye Cheryl.
What's going on?
They shut down two floors.
I see you!
Hey! I see you!
What did I say? I see you.
The photography, now, let me see it.
He looked it up, there is no such thing as "Silverbath."
Listen, there is uncertainty about the negative, I thought...
I understood and hoped it was in Iceland ... - It was in your care!
Just give me some more time... - You're fired.
We'll make another cover. - Hey!
More than a million, way more negatives come through my office, I never missed one.
Put it on a plaque, hanging at your next job.
Now I got to explain this to the board?
Hey.
You okay? - Yes.
That's cool.
It's a skateboard for Cheryl's son.
Cheryl is not here, she was let go.
I told you man, it's bad.
Hey, that's mine!
Thank you.
Hi. - Hi.
Can I ...
Yeah, is huh... I'm looking for Cheryl Melhoff.
You know Cheryl? - Yeah.
She's huh... We work together.
And she was helping me with a work thing...
Cheryl!
Honey?
There's some guy here. - What?
Stop it.
From work. - Ok, hold on, I'm coming.
It's Conan! Tonight, the first lady, Michelle Obama, Walter Mitty.
Can we talk about your love life?
You don't wanna know about my love life.
Yes, I don't believe everything I read.
Little scandal?
Little scandal, yes. She was back with her husband or something...
Then she fell for you? - You know, when there's smoke there's fire.
You are awesome, Walter!
Can you turn this off? - It stays on!
I'm just gonna get out.
Hey, Mom. - Hi, honey.
Oh, Walter, you gotta tip these guys.
We got the piano back safe, Mom!
Back from your work trip?
Yes, this morning.
Hungry? - Hmm-mmm.
I'm making soup. - Thanks. - Hey, tipping time.
This is all I got.
Thanks everybody. For all your hard work.
We appreciate ma'am.
You're gonna stay for dinner?
Oh, Mom, I'd love to, I think I was very worn out after supervising moving that thing all day.
I think I just need to go to yoga and then just crash. - What is it, a class?
Yes, yoga, the class. I go to the hot time.
Where they heat the room, have you heard of that?
Yes. - You have?
That's great for you, it just get it all out of your system.
I spread out and it just get everything out of fear. I'm waiting for a call about an audition.
Yes. - Rizo? - Yeah, I'm really excited about it.
I'm just starting to get it. I just... Don't worry about, just get out of my head.
I feel like it's been a (?) like this.
I mean, ain't gonna get paid for it, which is fine, it's not about money.
And I feel like, you know, is just for kids. It's important for them to get started early.
I'm really thrilled Mom. You know, I think I will just enjoy it.
I think you'll do fine. - Yeah!
Hey, Mom. - Yes.
Did somebody take a picture of your piano like a week ago?
I did.
With Sean's camera.
Sean O'Connell's camera? - Yeah, he came to visit.
What?
He wanted me to know about your work schedule. When you left, when you came home.
He said you really understood life. He was really interested in your work.
Mom, why didn't you tell me?
I told you, I told you in the (?) I remember that.
Or maybe you... What's it you call when he goes into one of these little places? - Oh, "zoned out."
You do that now, huh?
What's the matter?
I got fired.
I lost the picture of his.
Can you find it?
No, I don't know where he is. He's in some place with warlocks, or ...
Warlords.
No, Warlocks.
Warlords. Sean said he had a meeting with warlords very soon and ...
Maybe he'd take my cake so that he could get permission to track through the wilds in this place.
He said he wants to photograph snow leopards, what about it? - Who?
Uncovering Afghanistan.
That's where Sean is. Crazy Afghanistan huh?
In the upper Himalayas.
They can't let you go.
You are Sean's partner.
He told me that you are the person who worked hardest ...
...to make sure his work was realized.
The way he wished.
Go finishes his work.
I've rented two strong little man.
I am given a "Mountain Blessing."
We offer Mom's cake to warlords.
Conditions testing, body and soul.
My mind drifts like the snow.
I am alone.
- Hey Todd ... - Hey what's up?
Not much.
Hey, good news, your profile really round it out man.
That volcano-shark combo...
That's money in the bank. Get ready to get a lot of winks.
- Ok. - But huh, something else, Cheryl Melhoff...
She's not in here anymore, she's gone.
- Oh really? - Yeah
- Hey may where are you now? - Himalayas.
I love it! Wait man, that's a kickass "been there".
Tod, I'm gonna keep this short.
I have to make oxygen choices.
Hey I get it, go.
Anyway, you have a profile now, congratulations.
Cool, but you know what? Would you take me off?
I can't really swing that $ 500 yearly.
Hey ...
Wow, huh, well...
Hey man...
- Are you sure? Because I feel like we're onto something here.
You mind? I'm working.
It's one of the best profiles I've ever done, and our refund policy, we don't have one.
Todd I gotta go...
- Sean? - Yeah?
This is Walter ...
Mitty ...
Walter Mitty, seriously?
How the hell did you get up here?
It's just huh...
I've been looking for you.
Sit down.
I'll sit.
Take your time, chill out. Try to be still, ok?
There's a snow leopard, right in this ridge.
We've to try to be very very very still.
They call the snow leopard, the "ghost cat".
Never let itself be seen.
Ghost cat?
Beautiful is that's not asking for attention(?)
Sean there's a negative that got separated from the roll...
I'm taking a lot of heat over it at work.
It never came with the roll you said.
(??) - Yeah.
- That's the 25. - Yes.
You're sitting on it.
Why am I sitting on it?
It's in your wallet.
That was the gift, the photography.
The wallet was just something I could put it in, so I put it in a little slot.
A little picture holder in there, I thought it would be cute.
I told you to look inside, in the note.
You said look inside, I thought you meant...
I thought you meant inside the wrapping paper.
Yeah, you got a little nice surprise.
No, I don't have it, I don't have it anymore.
What the hell were you thinking?
I mean, I'm sorry, I've admired you for a very long time, but...
...that's not a good move. At all, with a valuable negative.
Sorry I just... I thought it'd be a playful kind of thing.
- Playful? Too playful.
I see what you're saying. The cover should have been more straightforward.
But, can I ask you, I mean if you don't mind? What did you do with the wallet?
Trashed it.
That hurts my feelings.
No man, I liked it very much, I appreciated it very much.
But it seems it's other way.
So you have no idead on what it was?
The photography.
Shame.
It was a beauty.
How did you find me anyway?
My mom.
Cool lady. She knows how to bake.
Yes.
Hey, why did you... - Shhhh
When are you gonna take it?
Sometimes I don't.
If I like a moment, I mean, me personaly...
I don't like to have the distraction cam.
So I stay in it.
Stay in it?
Yeah right there.
Right here.
Ah, that's cool, that's cool.
That looks like fun, I'm gonna join them.
Hey, what was the picture Sean?
There's gonna be an odd number, if you don't join it.
What was the picture?
Let's just call it a "ghost cat", Walter Mitty.
You made the watch list.
How did you get to Afghanistan? There's a travel ban.
Through Yemen?
Violent place.
That's why the air (?) is only $ 84.
Can I have my $ 5 back?
Do you know anyone in Los Angeles?
- No. - Any acquaintances ok?
Any companions, anybody who might be able to verify that you are Walter Mitty?
- Walter Mitty? - Yes.
Todd Maher, E-Harmony.
- Thank you, thanks, I really... - Whaaat? Come here, come here.
- Backpack! - Big hug...
Airport prison huh?
- Yes. - Yes.
Tell me all about it over cinnabun. Come on. Cinnabun!
How long were you detained for, by the way?
- 17 hours - Wow!
How's that cinnabun taste? - It's really great.
That's like, that's frosty heroin what you're eating.
Before end, such a pepper right there man(??)
By the way, you got 300 winks, (?) your profile.
Three in like this face in 2 hours, it was crazy.
I thought I was selling concert tickets.
I never checked it.
Oh, because of the Pica Colada girl. The quit.
- Yes. - Yes, Cheryl.
Cheryl who did not respond to a single wink.
The whole time she was on there, a choosy lady.
That's a choosy lady.
How is the huh... daydreaming going??
Lately less.
Good, less is good!
- Thanks for the pastry. - Yes, you owe me.
I'll send you a check as soon as I sell the piano.
You're now on your play. What are you gonna do now?
You know, I could get another job.
- Sorry Walter, I just ... - What? - You're so not how I pictured you.
What, what, how did you picture me?
I pictured you as a little gray piece of paper.
But now I see you, and it's like...
Indiana Jones decided to become the lead singer of the Strokes or something like that.
It's nuts, I know.
- I'm sorry mom. - What for?
I had bothered you, It's my responsibility.
Oh Walter, we're all grown here, we're good.
That's what's the duty of your dad's son. Put this into your wallet.
I don't have one.
I found it in the trash, I always saved your nick-nacks.
- Got it mom? - Got it.
Watch the stairs.
How this works? Part of America, different generations, it says it all.
Oh hey, welcome, wait, I'm sorry...
..hey, not welcome, not an employee.
Sorry.
This is the picture that Sean wanted, 25.
You have 2 days to print for cover.
There's your quintessence.
Hey, do you know our motto?
Life... I'm loving it.
That's no, that's McDonalds'.
This thing that you do Ted, where you come into a place and you push people out...
You should know that those people work really hard to build this magazine.
They believe in the motto.
And I get it, you got your orders and you have to do what you have to do...
But you don't have to be such a dick.
Put that on a plaque, and hang it on your next job.
What is it? Sasquatch or Unicorn?
- On the negative? - Yes.
I didn't look.
You were a good boss, Walter.
Thanks man.
Hey Walter what's up? Check this out.
Hi.
Walter Mitty, service package.
Hey, Cheryl.
- Hey. - Hey.
I got an email from Rich yesterday, he's really good.
Walter, thank you, that was, that was just a really cool thing to do.
I just saw it in Iceland.
He loves it. I'm taking him this afternoon.
Hey I want you to know, you weren't boring me.
That day in the park... I was...
I was thinking about... I know this sounds weird, but I was thinking about you...
When I was in Greenland, they do karaoke there, and...
I had to get on this helicopter with a very drunk pilot....
... and I started to image you singing Major Tom...
Anyway, he got me on the helicopter...
... and he just got me where I wanted to go.
So what happened to you? You sort of got off the face of the earth, you know...
I came by, your husband answered so I figured out I should just go.
Oh Phil, he was fixing my refrigerator, and he's not my husband.
I guess I imagined, but ...
I thought maybe you got back together.
You have a good imagination, but no...
Hey, my sister got this role in Greece. Rizzo.
Not a Broadway, some weird church.
You wanna go with me?
I made that sound really not good, but ...
- Yeah. - Yeah?
Yeah, yeah I'd love to.
Rizzo, in a weird church, you kidding? Rizzo, that's the best part.
Yeah, Rizzo, tough and tender.
- Yeah. - Great.
Are you heading uptown?
Sure. - Yeah.
Actually I was really into Rizzo once.
Oh, yeah? - Yes.
Was it the smoking and the teenage sex?
No, she was just, you know... I guess.
The last issue should be here, it came out this morning.
Walter.
Should we go buy one of those?
Yeah, I was probably gonna...
- Probably you're gonna go back later? - Yeah yeah.
I just wanted to see and get one, by the way.
