I know, it was good. It's good.
Getting off at the freeway.
Yeah? Did Hugh pick you up at the office, or...
Yeah, he was coming in from Oakland, late of course...
and then he took me to some lawyer bar.
A lawyer bar?
Yeah... I don't know everybody there seemed like a lawyer.
I felt like I was the only person without a tie.
Well maybe we should get you a tie for emergencies.
Yeah, wardrobe emergencies.
Any how we tried to take the freeway and...
Kevin? I can barely hear you.
Is that better?
Not much.
Where are you? Are you there yet?
Yeah, I'm just pulling up right now. I just got here.
Um... I'm right here, you know what, I need to parallel park and I'm not on my earpiece.
Are you good?
Yeah, we should talk about, maybe we can talk about.
Okay.
Is it something we should talk about now, or...
Hello? Kevin?
I lost you.
Baby?
You've gotta be kidding me.
I think olive oil would be good. A little more maybe?
- A drizzle. Is this turning you on? - That is hot.
It's the bread, babe.
It's the two of you with knives...
I haven't had carbs for weeks,
I've been on this "cleanse."
How long have you been cleansing for?
About 21 days.
I had my juice and my smoothie earlier today...
and I do feel, you know, cleansed.
Open.
A little faint maybe?
You a little faint now?
I'm gonna eat, I'm gonna drink, I'm gonna have a good time.
Hey.
How are you guys?
Nice to see you.
Bend down to my level.
I know.
So I just had Kevin on the phone and this happened.
It cracked.
As I was talking to him.
You dropped it.
No, I didn't drop it...
it just cracked as I was holding it.
Do you have insurance?
I... I actually don't know if I do.
You can get insurance...
Do you have the Skype app I showed you?
No, I think it's fine.
He said he wanted to talk about something,
But on the news, you know they're talking about the comet.
Yeah... The Miller's Comet.
They keep telling people that this can happen.
Yeah, I don't think it's the comet.
If you have Skype, it uses the home Wi-Fi instead of the towers.
You know, the interference, the towers, they're saying things break.
Hey, do you want some wine?
Did Amir mention to you that...
he's bringing Laurie...
to dinner?
He's bringing Laurie?
Yeah. The Laurie.
Um, no I didn't know that. I didn't know that.
Who's Laurie?
Well he is.
You know Laurie.
Oh Mike.
Long black hair, kind of vixeny...
Wild and sexy...
Kinda strange, very mysterious.
Very tight, tight, tight dresses.
Listen it's totally fine, it's such and Amir thing to do.
Ok look I was going to keep this... my friends.
It's my own little rescue remedy concoction.
Right.
It's our own mix. It's pretty s... it's very safe. I think.
Do you want a needle for that?
You can drop it into some water...
Just to take the edge off, in case you're worried. I'm offering.
It's Echinacea, passionflower, a little valerian...
and ketamine.
- So it's all natural. - Ketamine?
That doesn't sound natural at all. That's a horse tranquilizer.
Yeah but it's. Just like... a whisper.
I did that once.
I just thought maybe, you know celebration...
Are you offering this to me because Laurie's coming here?
Well to everyone, I'm just saying...
Now it's a party.
Ketamine or cheese?
No big deal.
But it's right here if you change your mind.
Oh, this is nice.
Where'd you get this?
Uh, Galaxy, that thrift store.
Oh, I love that place.
Me too I know.
Hi.
Hi baby.
What? What do you want come here.
My wife.
Hi.
- How are you? - I'm good.
Hi.
Do you guys want wine, cheese, ketamine?
You look so good in leather.
Jesus Christ.
Um, did you know that um.
Laurie is coming?
No. Laurie's coming?
Look at that smile on your face.
It's not a smile, it's not that smile.
Oh my God.
Why is she coming tonight?
Amir's bringing her.
Because Amir's a total jackass.
Oh.
You know what, put a quarter in the swear jar.
So who did he tell?
Well we got the...
we got the email about it, I mean, just plus one...
Plus one and then I was like "Plus wha...?"
You need to know tonight?
Umm humm.
My editor needs to know how to book hotels and flights.
I gotta do it, let them know.
Gotta know tonight.
You know I can't... I just need to think about it a little bit longer because...
I just don't want to make the wrong choice.
What if you came for a shorter time?
Like a month, not the full four months. Just come for a month.
It's still a very long time and I'm not saying no...
Babe, if you don't say yes it becomes a no.
We're cold and hungry!
Helloooo?
Here we go.
Hi.
Amir, you look great!
Thank you. Laurie, you remember Laurie?
Amir told me I wouldn't be overdressed now I'm feeling...
No, no.
We're underdressed.
- Hi. - Hi.
- How are you? - I'm good.
- Beth, do you remember Laurie. - Yes.
Yes nice to see you.
And you two have already said hello and...
How are you? Good to see you.
You guys want red wine.
Yes I would love red wine.
I've been cooking, I've been cooking.
How have you been?
I've been good. I've been really good.
I've been great. Yeah. Life is looking very different from how it was a while back.
In a good way, so...
Well, cool. That's good to hear.
- There you go. - Thank you.
Not A, C, E. U, S.
Horace, listen, I'm down at the pyramids...
come and down and...
join, we gotta talk about some deity stuff."
Does everyone else still not have service?
My phone is completely broken.
I'm living in the moment.
Nothing.
I got zero.
That's weird. Maybe the tower's down?
The tower's down?
I'm telling you guys...
That would be a big news story.
Comet. Comet.
- Miller's comet. - Yes! Thank you.
I read something this morning about a comet in the 1930's, it was in Finland...
Knocked out all of the.
Knocked out all of the. cell towers?
Actually, it was in 1923. And yes, it was in Finland.
Thank you, Wikipedia.
It was actually crazy, because it affected the people.
After it passed, they would get lost,
they would end up in the wrong home, they would forget things.
And they wouldn't really know where they were.
And I remember reading about this one woman...
who called the police and said the man in my house is not my husband.
And the police came over and they said "this is your husband" and...
she said "no, this is not my husband...
I killed my husband yesterday..."
Awesome.
"... That's how I know it's not him."
But they couldn't arrest her because he was standing right there in front in them.
Do they have any theories of why?
Think how lucky she is, she gets to kill him again.
Clearly she wants to kill this man.
It's just the Finnish.
The Finns. The Finns or Finnish?
You guys remember Halley's Comet?
I mean it was such a big deal and for my school...
we all had to reenact Halley's Comet.
So they assigned each of us something celestial...
to do and my sister got to be Halley's comet. I was very jealous.
I've never met your sister.
Have you guys met her sister?
There's a picture of her right over there...
on the mantle but...
She looks a little ridiculous.
That's your sister?
But why did you put it.
It's the door to nowhere.
In Feng Shui, a useless door, which this is obviously a useless door...
you put a picture of someone...
you have unresolved issues with...
it causes all of this weird energy flow.
I don't even like being over here.
It's freaky.
Really, you shouldn't be over there then.
Every time you're...
I'm sort of an empath.
And I can feel it. It's like a vortex.
When was the last time we were all together like this?
I was thinking, right before Thanksgiving...
most of us were there, but not everybody could be...
I don't think Laurie...
- Laura? - Laurie.
Laurie. Sorry.
We're going to tell all these stories...
We do that when we get together.
So Laurie, what are you doing these days?
Well, I'm, uh...
Keeping yourself busy?
I'm keeping busy. I'm actually working with...
some outreach programs in the Silicon Valley...
and we work with at risk youth...
Oh, wow. Didn't you no, non, no.
Are you still teaching the yoga? The Spanish Yoga? The Spoga?
No. Not me.
Are you sure...
Oh, that must've been another girl that Kevin dated that Amir is hooking up with...
Wow.
Let's give him a shovel.
No, I mean what do you do for a living?
I act. Shut up, guys.
I didn't know you were. I didn't remember that you were an actor.
So, you do mainly theater?
Well, I did.
I mean, since I moved down here to support my wife and her Skype-ing career.
Um, but no, I was in a TV show.
- For about four years. - Yeah? What was that?
It was called "Roswell."
Oh my God, I love "Roswell!" When were you on "Roswell?"
What episodes were you on?
I was on all shows. Produced.
- What do you mean? - I was a series regular on that show.
Yeah, he was like the main guy.
- What character did you play? - Joe.
Did you have different hair or something?
I had the same exact hair.
I'm sorry. Maybe it's one of those things where you know...
the character for so long and then you see someone in person...
and it just doesn't compute. I don't know.
Well, he's sorta grown into his face.
He's flushed it out.
Check it out again. I'm sure, y'know, like the downward dog...
probably gets to your head.
I didn't do yoga. That wasn't.
Well, hey, listen...
thanks for enjoying the show.
I think you're a really good actor and I think you should continue doing it.
Thank you very much.
What are you up to these days? Last I remember...
you were taking the dance world by storm.
Um, I guess the last time I saw you must've been when I was creating the dance show.
Uh huh.
And it was going really... really well for a while...
but then right before the premiere...
they brought in Svetlana Aserrano who is...
the best dancer in the world really.
And they just offered me the understudy.
She should've been the whole thing.
She created it, she should be the prima ballerina of the San Francisco-
You know, you hear these stories sometimes...
about people being shut out of things they created and I think it's horrible.
But I mean it's a good lesson I had to learn.
You know because of my pride I didn't want to take...
the understudy and I took too long to think about it...
and then I lost the understudy job.
And they gave that to Katherine Merriss and...
And she sucks.
She sucks!!!
No, she's good guys...
Anyways the reason that she's really big now is that she ended up going up.
Svetlana pulled out last minute and Katherine ended up doing the show.
Katherine Merriss? As soon as you said that...
I thought Katherine Merriss that's like pretty much the only person in dance I know.
Right, well...
So, she basically stole your...
your whole thing?
Katherine Merriss has your life basically.
Career. For now.
You have your life and...
it's a shame that it happened because she doesn't hold a candle to you.
Well then, here's to the life.
That we do lead.
Here's to the comet.
To the comet.
Anybody have a happier story?
Kevin tell a crazy story, first one that comes in your head.
No. All right. Um...
Sorry.
I was going out with Laurie. And we were drinking way too much at the bar.
I passed out and I started dreaming...
that this big black bear.
Was up on its hind legs sort of mauling me.
Slowly, tenderly.
Anyhow, we go to some party...
in Santa Cruz and as we walked in this...
huge dog comes running straight at me.
Jumps up on its hind legs and starts pawing me...
exactly like the dream, and this guy yells 'Bear, get down Bear.'
What?
Wow. You have a gift.
The way you told that story I thought...
somebody was going to die.
You know Bear is the most common dog name.
Oh, that makes it a much less interesting story.
Thanks for that, Lee!
Most common bear name? Henry.
Look. Oh my God.
- What? - This looks like your phone.
Oh my god! That happened to my phone tonight.
And I was just holding mine in my hand.
Exact same thing.
- Nooooo. - Yeah.
This is what they've been talking about on the news.
Yep. It must be the comet. The chicken tastes like tuna...
Alright... it must be Miller's comet.
So nobody's phone works?
Mine's in the other room.
Do you guys have a landline here?
No we're wireless baby.
All right... I need to get a hold of my brother.
What about, um... your deal...
The computer.
Skype? Let me check. It's in the office, right?
Could I?
What's wrong with your brother?
Nothing. He's fine.
He just, uh, you know Brian.
He hangs out with all those theoretical physicists.
No internet.
No?
How is there no internet?
- You run Skype, you tell us. - I know.
What are they saying about the comet?
Nothing to get upset about. He just said to give him a call...
if there was anything weird going on.
Like why? What did say to do?
Why didn't you tell me this?
Because of your feng shui...
and your granola candles and I didn't want to...
Stop making fun of me.
Just that there's this massive celestial object and I didn't want to freak you out.
And now you're freaking me out.
You guys realize I was on this show called
"Roswell" and we handled these issues every week.
Oh shit.
Oh my God.
Honey.
Um, I'm on it...
Do we have candles?
I'm so glad I'm not high.
Okay, I do not want to sit by the Door to Nowhere!
Mike, check the breakers?
I'm going to turn the lighter on then come to you.
- You guys need help? - No I have matches and...
I've got some over here.
I got blue glow sticks, red glow sticks and green glow sticks.
Guys let's just light candles and...
Are you going outside?
I'm gonna go check and see if the power's off in the whole neighborhood.
I decided this is where mine goes.
Well, this is a little strange but the whole neighborhood is out...
of power except for a house about two blocks up which is completely lit up.
It's kind of beautiful actually.
The house?
I want to go see. Let's go see that.
I've never seen it so dark outside before.
You can't leave me here, I'm going to go with you.
- Come along. - Come on check it out.
I'm going, don't leave me by myself.
Where?
You don't see it?
Amir, why are you so far ahead of everyone?
Amir, dude, I can't see you.
Let Laurie go first.
Thanks a lot. That's sweet.
Baby.
See that? Two blocks down.
Oh, they have light.
- That one house has light. - They must have...
a generator or something?
What is that like two blocks away?
Could solar power do that?
But would their landline be working?
Oh, wow, look at that.
Magnificent.
Holy moly.
Well, I'm freezing.
Should we head over there, or...
Maybe we should head back inside.
That was awesome, right?
I didn't even see this get knocked over. Did anyone see that get knocked over?
I didn't even know that glass was out here.
I never go down into the basement.
Guys, listen, seriously, what's up with that house?
Why are they...?
It could be a generator.
Really?
I don't know, could be... just off the grid bastard...
Well, apparently, we have a generator.
That would make sense if they were...
off the grid. I'm actually thinking of going over there.
What?
- What? No, you're not going over there. - Honey, it's okay.
It's ridiculous.
It's not that far. Look, my brother,
he said that if anything strange were to happen while the comet was passing over.
We should stay inside...
What?
Just hold on, Amir. That we should stay I should do...
my best to contact him. And so that's all that I'm doing.
He said if anything strange should happen?
I'm not the only one who thinks this is strange.
It's not weird.
He said to stay inside though, what's more important than the other.
Yeah, but this over rides that and it's only two blocks away.
I'll be back in like five minutes.
- Well, then you can't go by yourself. - I'm going with him.
There ya' go, I'll take Amir.
I'm the least important person here.
Just stay here.
Okay, well, bring your glow sticks so we can identify your bodies.
Good idea.
Thanks. That helps a lot. That's great.
Don't listen to them. Five minutes all right?
- Five minutes all right? - Okay five minutes. All right, okay.
Beth I couldn't find my shoes. I'm borrowing yours, I'm sorry.
That's so Amir.
Ten minutes we give them.
They'll be fine.
We're just rattled because we're addicted to cell phones and the internet.
We are. What did we do before cell phones?
Em, you seem to be the comet expert here tonight.
What happened the last time?
This one passed over a hundred years ago but much farther.
But do we know of anything that happened?
Nothing happened then. It was too far away.
So, is there any reason we should be freaked out right now?
Well, I mean it is a lot closer this time.
What does that mean?
Okay, I read one more thing.
- Oh another story. - Just one more.
It was called the Tungusta Event and it was a comet or a meteor or something that...
entered the atmosphere over Siberia and exploded over Earth.
So, it didn't actually have physical impact.
It didn't touch Earth. It didn't leave a crater or anything...
but the force of that explosion flattened trees for hundreds of miles.
But it only killed about one to two people.
It's Siberia, there were probably only two people there.
Yeah, but they don't necessarily...
- It wiped out the population of Siberia. - Basically.
Well, that doesn't make me feel better.
And when was this? It was like in 1908 or 1903...
Omigod, omigod, omigod...
What the fuck was that?
I don't know. Lock that front door.
I'll get the bat.
- Mike, is that door locked? - Okay, I'll check it.
Baby, stay away from the door.
No, no, no.
- Oh shit, I can't look. - Don't, don't, don't. Oh my god.
Hold on. I just want to see what the hell is out there.
- Is anybody there? - Front door's locked.
There's nothing. There's nothing out there.
Oh my God, I thought I was going to have a heart attack.
Is everybody all right?
Check the generator please, please try the generator.
- I'll check the generator. - Would the guys do that?
No, no the guys would not do anything like that, stupid to do that.
Okay, how long have they been gone?
I don't know. Five minutes out,
five minutes back, they should be back by now.
So, they should be back by now. Okay, I think we should go get them.
- No, no, no, no. - I want to go get my husband.
We need to do it together this time, guys.
That's fine with me, I don't care, I just want to go.
- Don't go outside. - I'm not going anywhere,
I just want to see if I can see them.
We should go get them. We can all go together...
Okay, all right, this is good.
Is that the grid or the generator?
No, it's just us.
So, there's no other lights on? It's just us?
It's pitch black out there.
Okay, so it must be...
- Well done. - Thank you.
- You did it! - Let there be light.
Okay, well, I think that we should...
as a group we should go find those guys.
I agree.
Let's do it as a group this time.
No that's ridiculous.
If you get lost in the woods you're supposed to stay...
where you are until someone can find you.
Okay, fine, that's great. Let's just sit down and breathe.
All right, for once, I actually agree with what your saying.
You know what? You've been giving me shit all night.
Guys, guys, guys.
Stay.
Oh man, it's them.
- What the hell happened? - Oh my God.
- Are you okay? - I'm fine, I'm fine.
What is this?
What's the box?
That was at the other house.
I thought I saw Hugh put it down.
And then he was running around the corner and...
You just took it?
I was just followed him... I had it in my hand...
- Hugh, what happened? - I'm fine, I'm fine.
Did you put this down?
- Why the fuck did you take that? - I thought I saw you put it down.
I did not touch that thing. And I don't know what the hell that is.
I don't know why you grabbed it.
Guys, what happened?
We were at the other house. Hugh went around the side. I thought I heard a noise.
You made some kind of sound and then you saw
what? Something. You won't tell me what you saw.
I don't understand what's going on? What did you see?
That has nothing to do with anything that we should be fucking concerned with.
What did you see?
It's not a big deal. I'll walk it back.
Okay, fine.
Wait, let me open it first.
No, Mike, what are you doing?
- What is it? - I don't know.
You don't want to talk about it...
and you don't want to open the box so why...
Fine! Open the fucking box! Open the box, what do I care?
What is wrong? Calm down.
What happened?
Holy shit, it works! I got it.
- Open it away from your face. - It's not a bomb.
How do you know what the heck it is?
Don't freak out.
Oh my God...
...it's a ping-pong paddle.
It's a ping-pong paddle.
Well what's that?
What is going on?
Oh my God.
These are pictures of all of us.
These are.
- Somebody's marked us. - This is insane.
There's numbers on the back.
- Hugh. - Baby, what did you see?
Hugh what did you see?
Jesus Christ, man, you can't stand there and not say anything! What did you see?
Hugh!!
- There are pictures of us in this box! - Hugh what did you see?
Hugh!!!
I went to the window.
And I looked in to the window. And I saw a table...
with wine glasses and candles.
And dinner set for eight people.
I saw.
Oh my God.
Right. Okay, fuck you, Hugh!
- I saw. - Bullshit.
Did you guys come and fuck with this door?
- Fuck you, Kevin. - Did you come to the side door?
No, he went to the side door of the other house.
They wouldn't answer the front door so I went to the side door...
You dipshits walked in a circle and knocked on this door.
I did not walk in a fucking circle!!!
We went two blocks! We went up to that house and I knocked at the door...
and nobody answered and so I went and banged on the side door.
- Did you see yourself, Hugh? - No, I did not see myself.
No, because you weren't there.
I did not go in a circle!
Fuck...
I don't believe this.
This still doesn't explain the pictures.
- What's on the back of them? - Numbers.
We've got 2, 1, 1...
1.that's 5.
Whoa, whoa, where are you going?
I'm gonna go back over there.
No, no, no, think about it.
I'm going to go over there and ask to use their phone...
and hopefully I can get in touch with my brother. And if they're not there,
I'll just leave a note, right?
- No. - No, no, no that makes sense right?
You should not go back.
It's fine, it will be fine. It will be fucking fine.
What's a note going to do?
If they have pictures of us they might be crazy.
Shit!!! There's someone out there! There's someone out there!
Oh my God.
Oh, uh, there's a big guy at the door.
At the door?
He's waking away, he's walking away...
Baby, please be careful.
Baby...
Shit.
What?
What is it, babe?
"Hey there,
don't mean to freak you guys out..."
"...but we just wanted to borrow your phone for five minutes tops."
"Thanks."
Two kinds.
Regular band-aid or cloth?
Uh... whatever. Cloth.
Sorry, sorry, sorry...
Okay, why are these three 1's? This is a two.
We are four, five, six. Do you have any red markers?
OK they are these three 1's.
6,5, 2.
4.
And that's the same picture.
Oh my God.
Somebody cut that in half.
Where are these from?
Could this be like numerology?
Like if you add up all the numbers in the name or their birthday...
Like live path numbers?
Well, if that's the case then they're just crazy and...
it doesn't matter anyway. So, what do all the 1's have in common?
We have...
Date of birth? Gender?
Oldest to youngest?
There's no 3.
Is there someone that would want to be...
doing this to us? Is there someone who is on someone's bad side?
This was taken tonight.
What?
How do you know that?
I bought this sweater today, so... that's from tonight.
Has anyone taken a picture of you tonight?
Someone took a picture of you when you were looking at the box.
You were looking in to the lens.
Bu then it was already in the box.
What's that? I can't tell what that is.
There's dots on the wall and there's a lampshade.
And none of the others are from tonight, right?
No, no this our picture, this is from last fall.
This picture of Amir was taken right over here. Standing in front of this drum.
Guys hang on.
- I can't figure out what this is. - It's taken from the door?
From behind the curtain?
It's taken from over there.
So, wait, when someone knocked on the door, where you there?
You were gone...
But you were looking right at the camera.
So it would be from that door then, right?
You don't remember... I mean,
this is you, man. This is you.
Guys, this isn't going to solve anything.
What're you doing?
I need something to drink.
I need something...
It looks like my handwriting, babe.
It looks like I wrote this.
Okay, relax.
This is starting to freak me out.
That's your handwriting.
What is going on?
I feel like I'm losing my mind.
I can't stop thinking about.
The fact that you brought up a story you shared with Laurie.
Of all the stories you could've...
Of all the experiences we've shared you brought up the story about her?
- I am so sorry. - In front of everyone.
It was a crazy story. We don't have stories like that.
Oh, they're not crazy enough for you.
- It's a good thing. - Oh God.
I don't need crazy stories like that. Not anymore.
All right, hey, fuck this, let's just go.
I'm going to go over there and theoretically let's go...
see if our theoretical selves are over there.
- No, no, no. - I'm in.
There's weird stuff happening here I think we should...
I think we should evaluate...
- I just evaluated it and I'm going. - Can we just stay here?
If there's another me, I want to see me.
Let's go. Look, I'm over this. I'm getting sick of talking about it.
I'm getting sick of writing about it. The same fucking paper, the pictures.
There's no one trying to hurt us, we go over there...
and we find out what the hell is going on.
What about you? You were the one who said you wanted to go.
That's when I thought they might have a phone.
Four glow sticks.
Can we please keep two guys here? Please...
I'm staying, I'm staying.
Are you going Amir? Please.
Let's go.
So, what we're splitting up again?
No, no we're not splitting up we're just gonna go in two different groups.
Oh, Okay.
Sticks, sticks, sticks.
Will you just chill for a second, I'm coming.
Because I want to go. I'm going with Kevin.
Give us twenty minutes.
And then what?
No we'll be fine.
You will be fine. It's fine.
Alright, we'll find out what's going on.
No cars. No people, there's nothing.
Guys look.
That's my house.
Mike!!
This is my house.
Mike this isn't right. This is not your house. Mike!!
It's my house.
It's not your house Mike.
This is not your house.
I can see Lee,
We gotta go.
Let's get out of here now. Mike we need to get the hell out of here.
Someone's coming down the street.
That's just nuts.
So... you saw four figures, same as you?
Except they had red glow sticks.
Who had red glow sticks?
They had the red glow sticks. We had the blue
glow sticks, that was the only difference.
So, they must've opened the red box when the lights went out.
And you didn't say anything to them?
Would you?
No, I wouldn't, I think I would've thought I was going to die or something.
Okay, okay, so that's it?
Well, that and there's some weird zone that's even darker than the rest of it all.
We went through that.
Yeah, we went through that...
when we went down there.
We need to find out what's going on.
The Internets down we don't have...
Well we can't just sit here.
What else?
Do you guys have any...
Do you have books?
Books on what? Books on comets?
Comets, gravity, black holes...
Yeah, I've got Shakespeare and some Henry Miller...
and some screenplays. Dude, I'm a fucking actor.
Anything about quantum physics?
Yeah, that's right up my alley.
Some actors read.
Your brother left a book at our house and...
What?
I put it in an envelope to mail but I- I put it in the backseat of your car.
And it's about?
I don't know what it's about? It's just one of his books.
Can't you just go and look?
It's always about stuff like that so why would it not be about that?
Yeah, I will... I will go get the book...
I don't know about.
Somebody go with him?
Did you bring the bat?
Yeah.
Yes that's a good idea.
Please be careful, babe.
Okay.
Should we wake up Lee?
How could she go to sleep in the middle of this?
I'm sorry. Sorry, babe.
Jesus calm down everybody.
What is it?
"Gravitation: An Introduction To Current Research."
That's not gonna help.
So is like his brother like a scientist of something?
He's just like a really trippy guy. He's really, really smart. A real egghead.
But it's hard to... it's like he thinks out loud. He's a teacher at UCSD.
This is.
These are Brian's notes from his lesson plan for his class,
"Decoherence and Schroedinger's Cat." He talked about this.
Do you guys know what Schroedinger's Cat is?
I'm allergic.
So, it's a thought experiment.
There's a cat in a box that has like a...
50/50 chance of living because there's a vial of poison...
that's also in the box. So regular physics would say that it's one or the other.
That the cat is either alive or dead.
But Brian would argue that in quantum physics...
that both realities exist simultaneously.
It's only when you open the box that they collapse. in to a single event. Right?
And so listen to this, this is what he's written.
"There is another theory: that the two states...
continue to exist separate and decoherent from each other,
each creating a new branch of reality based on the two outcomes.
Quantum decoherence ensures that the different outcomes...
have no interaction with each other."
- Hold on. - Well, that explains it.
So we're in the box.
We're the cat. We're both alive and dead.
And there's two separate realities...
until presumably until the comet passes.
Until the comet passes?
Okay. Or decoherence is maintained and those two separate realities...
will remain separate once the comet passes.
And everybody will be fine.
Decoherence keeps us separate.
Right.
Why is the other us contacting us then in this way?
They didn't want to.
Who got the pictures, the numbers...
We started it, when we went to find a house with lights.
Yeah, maybe they didn't mean the box for us. The box isn't for us.
But we've already interacted with ourselves.
So we're collapsing on ourselves right now.
Not if we stay separate from each other.
It's already too late. We've already been there.
Do you remember that movie "Sliding Doors?"
Where just a fraction of a second...
there could be two realities?
In one, she runs and tries to get on the subway and
she can't, she gets her hand stuck in the door.
And in the other one she gets through and there's two divergent...
Listen, if we're collapsing. If we're collapsing
right now, I'm gonna collapse on them.
I'm not gonna wait for them to collapse on us.
Whoa whoa, Mike.
I'll go over there. I'll go over there and I'll just kill 'em.
What?
Half-kidding.
I love my fucking life.
Well, let's be smart for a little bit first...
before we do anything stupid and let's stick with that we do know.
And what's smart? Just sitting here? Doing nothing?
What we do know is that we took this box, right?
So, our first act should be to return it, yes?
Fuck that, no. We're not returning that box.
I don't trust that house. That stays here.
Wait, wait, wait.
What's gotten you so freaked out?
Stupid, stupid question.
Yeah nice.
We're not at war with the house down the street.
They might literally be the same people as us.
Mike's saying let's come over here and kill us. Fuck that.
So if you, hold on, if you do it first,
you know who you're gonna fight? You.
You're gonna run into you.
Who's gonna win that?
Who did you see when you looked in the window over there? Did you see yourself?
I did not see myself.
- I told you who I saw. - Okay, okay.
But what if in that house over there... what if I'm drinking?
I mean just think about that for a second.
That's a fucked-up Michael.
I'm not waiting for a fucking drunk Mike...
to come over here and kill me.
And kill you and kill you and kill you...
I'm not waiting for that.
Wait, wait, wait a minute. Who did you see when you were there?
I saw Amir, I saw Hugh, and I saw...
Lee.
Okay Lee's not here right now.
She's taking a nap.
- What do you mean she's taking a nap? - So it's different then.
Something's off. It's not the same.
In this reality Lee's napping.
Maybe in that reality you're napping?
So that's why Mike didn't see her.
Right, and if Beth's napping in that reality...
They don't have the book.
- They don't. - Right.
The other house doesn't have the book.
And if they don't have the book,
they're not having this conversation right now.
So then if we get the book from the car then we can avoid all of this.
- Take it? Take their book? - It's a possibility.
- Hugh give me your keys. - Wait, wait, wait.
We're not supposed to mess with any of this.
Why would we even risk this?
He's talking about going over and fighting them.
Why make it worse?
Because then I don't have to go over there and kill them.
Just give me the keys!
No, I don't think that we should do anything.
And you are not taking my keys.
Where you going Mike?
How do we know if it's exactly us?
What if it's externals.
- The dark side of us. - Yeah.
- It' us you guys. - You mean the not friendly version?
Well, if it's us then this could be is it a good thing?
It sounds like it would be a way to reach a higher consciousness, if we want to...
Like an acceptance of ourselves?
Well, yeah, I mean, we always talk about finding ourselves...
and here we have an opportunity to actually physically find ourselves.
That's a lot of pressure.
Look who's joined us.
Hi, everybody.
- How are you honey. - Okay.
I gotta talk to you for a second.
- Welcome back to your own dinner party. - Yeah, how's my dinner party going?
Super missed you.
I have an idea.
I have an idea that will prevent them from getting the book from the car.
What are you talking about man?
I'm gonna go to that house, and I'm gonna blackmail myself.
I'm gonna leave a note to keep Mike from having them go to the car to get that book.
What do you mean a blackmail?
Something that I know that I don't want revealed.
- What are you talking about? - That thing with Beth.
The thing with Beth? I thought you and Hugh worked that out years ago.
Yeah, this is the worst idea I've ever heard.
It's amazing, because it would work on me!
- Going over there... - It's the same person.
You don't know that.
- This will pass. - It's brilliant.
- No, it is not brilliant. - It's brilliant.
Dude, no. I know this look in your eye.
Mike no.
...and if it's the same people then why not just leave each other alone?
I mean that would be that's what I would want me to do right?
You doing okay?
Yeah, yeah.
I don't know if I'm still woozy from the drops or if it's like...
What drops?
Um.
Did you give her...
- Yeah well... - Well... She wanted to take...
I just felt so weird from before.
It's just this stuff I brought, this rescue remedy, it's got Echinacea,
golden seal, passionflower and a little ketamine.
- A little ketamine? - A little.
- It's not like you're going to go into this...
- Beth.
What?
I'm so sorry if I'm wrong here...
if I'm wrong here and I'm saying something incredibly inappropriate...
What?
Did you put any of that in the food?
Yes! That would explain a lot.
Oh, c'mon, Amir.
Are you serious?
I had to ask.
She asked to take some and I gave her some.
When we did those mushrooms years ago.
We talked about it and I put them in the spaghetti sauce.
That was a group decision.
I know we agreed on that but I had to ask because...
No, so you think I would just put drugs in your food?
Oh my God.
Okay I'll show you.
Like on top of all this you think I'd drug you?
- I'll show you. - Let's just see how much is in there.
This is the vial I brought.
Yeah, and a quarter of it is gone.
But that's... She's had a couple of drops...
- out of it, that's it! - This is like high.
Grade pharmaceutical...
It is watered down.
You opened it up and watered it down?
Ok, but if you took enough of it, isn't it true that you would have hallucinations?
You would have to have a massive dose. You would have to take the entire bottle.
Okay, fine, but is it true?
Yes.
Ok, and is it also true that one of the...
other effects can be paranoia?
Yes, but you...
again you would have to have like all of it.
The whole bottle. The whole bottle.
And it would never...
even if all of us took a bottle each, it would never create a mass hallucination.
I am not a criminal.
It would be a nice conclusion right now, wouldn't it?
Wouldn't this be great if we were all hallucinating?
That's a much better explanation than we have.
It's not the explanation.
- Fine. - I believe you.
- This is the bottle. - I asked for it. She asked for it, I gave her some.
- Ok. - I did not drug your food. I did not drug your food.
I...
- Get it? - Lay off, okay?
I swear to God.
Thanks.
Hey, where'd you get this? This is so cute.
Oh, I got it at a Galaxy. That thrift store.
Oh, I love that place.
- That's great. - They have such cute stuff.
I just... I need a drink.
- Yeah. - Ok.
I just want to wake up and start again, you know?
Well...
- It's not even cracked. - What are we gonna do?
We have to get the fuck out of here.
Ok. Ok... Let's take...
- Take the book. - I'll take the book.
- Do we take the box? - Take the box.
This is what-Hey.
You okay?
Where did you go?
I need a drink.
What uh, where'd you go?
I went to the house, dude.
- I told you. - What happened?
I just dropped the letter off.
I saw the book.
I was gonna uh, I was gonna smash the window and take the book.
I didn't do that though. I did not do that. I just...
dropped off the letter and um then I was gonna wait,
to see their reaction. But I fucking freaked out.
- You've been gone five minutes, man. - Like 45 minutes, dude.
- No. - Bullshit.
No, you talked to me, you went in the kitchen.
You've been gone for five maybe ten tops.
You're fuckin crazy.
Oh, Mike. Mike, don't... Mike, don't do that.
Oh, my God.
Mike? What was...
Don't do this.
Mike, please? Why now?
Why not now, honey? Why not now.
Where are Hugh and- while we were in the kitchen?
- Where's Hugh? - Where's Amir?
More importantly, where's the box?
Oh my God, they took the box.
- Oh, my God. Mike, where did they go? - I have no clue where they went.
You've gotta be kidding.
You were in here what happened while we were in there?
Where's the book?
Why would they bring that...
bring that to the other house?
They...
They wanted to take it back, make everything right.
They wanted to return it so everything would be fine from the beginning. But.
But why would they bring the book, it's the one thing that we wouldn't...
I don't know. They took everything we have.
Wait a minute.
- We're in here when they... - We have to go get them, we have...
Wait a minute... they were the first ones to leave right? And then they, came back and...
they said they saw something, and they've been acting weird ever since.
- What are you implying? - Oh my god...
No, that's... well you guys left too...
Think about it!
I mean, everyone-You left too!!!
Amir came back and got so quiet, and then and he didn't...
and got so quiet, and then and he didn't...
Amir was being totally weird.
I'll bring 'em back. I'll see what's going on.
Baby, you're not, you're not anywhere.
I'll be back. I'll be back in a minute.
I'm gonna just go bring 'em back and find out what the hell's going on.
You're not, No, you're not leaving!
- No! - It's fine. I'll be back!
I'm not gonna let you go!
It would be fucking crazy.
Okay. So what are we gonna do?
I mean, they're out there, and I swear to God...
I'm gonna have a heart attack. We've gotta do something.
Let's have a drink.
We don't even know if that was them.
Would you quit saying that please?
No, but if that wasn't them, then Mike is right and...
we can't trust the other house. We can't trust ourselves.
That's right.
And our clues just left the house.
No, wait. The clues are still here.
If they had the pictures, then...
Mike, you took that picture of me and Kevin, right?
Do you have it here?
I can't take this anymore. I can't take it.
Sweetheart... Can you at least go look for it?
I'm gonna look for another bottle of wine.
This is so stupid.
Should I be keeping an eye on him?
I feel like, I don't want to hover... I don't, I don't know.
Just give him a minute and then...
go and talk to him, I guess.
I don't know who Mike is anymore. Not when he drinks.
Everything that's gone wrong with us started when he started drinking. That's why...
That's why he doesn't have a career. It's just.
I don't know. Not the man I married.
Hey.
- Hey. - How you doing? How you holding up?
All things considered, all right.
I totally don't believe you.
What...
What's going on? Amir told me...
you were gonna go to Vietnam and Em's not going with you?
Yeah, I uh...
I gotta go for work for, I don't know, it's four months of vacay.
Yeah, I want her to come along but uh.
She'd be crazy not to go with you.
Yeah that's what I think.
Yeah, I don't, I don'know, I mean, it's, I, I really don't want to interfere.
It doesn't seem like any of my business, but I think you've always been...
someone who's extremely passionate about your life and what you're doing...
and if you have a partner that seems to hesitate all the time.
Then I don't know if that's gonna make you happy.
Oh, she's uh... I mean, I love her and... it's
just who she is... sometimes she's a little...
Tall?
She's a little bit... tall?
I don't know. Do you have to stand on your tip toes to kiss her?
I...
Sometimes people just fit well...
Laurie...
Like that Sharks' game? Come on, you can't tell me we don't fit well.
I had to do yoga for a week afterwards to recover.
I do remember that.
I just think that maybe...
Laurie.
I'm sorry. I'm crossing all kinds of boundaries with you.
Yeah.
Baby. Hi.
You know...
I think you're right that everything happens for a reason.
Should I get the bat?
For you or for me?
Could be either. What are we doing here?
If I'm losing it over there, I'm losing it here.
Ah, it doesn't have to be like that.
Sure it does.
It's the same thing.
No, it's not.
How do you figure?
Because there's no way that anybody over there,
or anywhere, loves you as much as I love you right here.
I fucked up.
Hi.
How ya doing?
Uh, fine.
Is everything okay? Is there something going on?
Beth just walked up to me and, uh.
She didn't really say much but she said...
that she saw you and Laurie talk in the hallway?
Jesus Christ,
Em. I think we have some more important things to worry about right now.
Than what Beth is saying.
- Jesus Christ. - Come on. Are you kidding me?
That would be the generator.
All right. We know what to do.
- Jesus. Let's use these matches I found. - Don't burn yourself.
- Kevin, do you have matches? - Yeah, I got some. Here.
What...
- You want to put this on the table? - Yeah, yeah.
- That was right out front. - Are you kidding me?
- That sounds like one of our cars. - Parked out front.
Look, I'm going out there, I can't stand this. I'm going to see what's going on.
- Not without the rest of us. - Let's just all go!
- Fine, then let's all go but I'm going. - Oh, my God.
I don't think we should. Let's get a flashlight.
We'll be fine. Here, I got one here.
You guys lead, ok?
- You ready? - Yeah.
Stay close. Stay close.
Alright, here we go.
- Where did it come from? - I don't know.
That's it right?
Oh, my God.
- Is there anything in there? - I don't see anything.
Oh, my God. Should we...
- should we check our cars? - This is crazy.
Yeah, why doesn't everybody check there own cars. See if they can find anything else.
- Let's look at our cars. - Go ahead. That's you.
Is everyone nearby? We shouldn't spread out too much.
Everything okay?
Yeah, I just... put this ring on that you got me at the fair.
Remember? I know it's... I know it's cheesy but I just wanted to have it on.
Cheese ball. That was a good day.
It was a good day. Are we okay?
- Yeah, babe. - After the whole Laurie thing.
Uh, yeah. I don't know what the hell she's thinking but yeah, we're good.
Come here.
Is everything okay with Hugh's car?
- What do you mean? - Well, did they take anything?
You just checked on his car, did they take anything?
Doesn't make any sense at all!
Do you think it's just someone trying to intimidate us?
Intimidate? No. It's...
It doesn't... I mean, none of us, it doesn't, I mean,
it's like they're looking for something and...
But there's nothing in there.
Exactly, there's nothing in there, so why...
- But they could see that there's nothing
- I know. in there.
We could see that there's nothing in there.
I know. Why break the window if there's nothing there?
That doesn't make any sense.
None of this makes any sense.
I went and got this ring.
Nice.
All right, hold on, let's just...
try and figure out why we would break into a car,
Hugh's car, when we know the book wasn't there.
Well, we're assuming the book is the motive...
but what if the motive is completely different.
- Did you hear something? - What the hell is that?
- It's outside. - Mike, Mike, Mike, Mike.
- Oh, shit! - What?
There's someone coming.
They're coming over here, guys!
Where? Can you see them?
- Is it Hugh? - Is it Hugh and Amir?
It's blue. It's Hugh and Amir. They're coming to the door.
- Oh, Jesus. - They're coming to the door.
- Are you sure? - It looks like it.
Are you guys all okay?
Hey, where have you been?
What happened? What have you been...
Can you please tell us what happened?
We, uh, went to uh we went to make a phone call.
And then when uh, when we looked in the door we saw this, basically.
I uh, I got startled and fell over and hit my head and went back to the house.
Wait, you, you already heard this story.
Why are you telling us this story again?
You came back with the box.
Wait, what?
Because you came back and after you hit your head,
we gave him a band-aid and you gave us the...
But not that band-aid.
- What do you mean? - I gave you a cloth band-aid.
Wait a minute, there was a Hugh and an Amir here?
Yes and you left with the book and...
you left with the pictures and we didn't know.
We were at a house where everybody had red glowsticks.
- Do you understand? - You had red glow sticks.
We have red glow... we took them from the other house.
Right.
Look! Look! Is that, look.
That box of red glowsticks is unopened!
Guys. If they started here...
they belong here. They're in the right house.
Well, welcome back.
Welcome back. Jeez, man, I'm sorry.
That's all right.
So, guys, what was the other Mike like?
What was he doing?
The other Mike...
is uh... he's worried about you.
So it was you guys who left us the note.
No, I never...
got out with that note. We ended up with two notes.
And so did we.
Well, where's...
We have two notes.
One that was written here and one that was left on the door.
If you didn't, and if the other Hugh didn't...
then who has been leaving the notes?
Quantum decoherence ensures that the different
outcomes have no interaction with one another.
So, that one note has been written at least four times.
Well, how many Hugh and Amir's are walking around out there?
Okay, before we do anything,
we have to figure out how to mark our own house.
Just stay inside!
No, no she's right.
Staying inside's not realistic.
We need some kind of marker. I mean, we need to mark this house.
If every house is the same if we put a marker in front of the house,
there could be an infinite number of houses with that mark.
So we have to do something random.
Something that can't be repeated. Something unique.
- Do we have dice? - Yeah, dice?
- Uh, Yahtzee. - Yeah, Yahtzee.
If we each role one number for each of us, that's what?
That's six times six times... six times... that's hugely random.
The probability of that repeating is. tiny.
And then what we...
But so we have to have something visual.
I mean, should we write it down, put it in an envelope... we still won't know...
No, no, no, no.
We need something to mark it.
Yeah, we put it in a box.
- That's... - That's exactly what they've done.
- So they were ahead of us. - They were making a marker for their house.
They made a unique mark. Only we took it.
If it seems like a good idea to us it would seem like a good idea to them.
- Do you have a box? - Let me look.
- So we need photos. - This is so crazy.
- Par for the night. - There are a lot of pictures here.
There's that picture. That's ridiculous.
I'm the attorney for Grizzly Addams.
I'm never hiring you.
How's this work as a box?
I didn't even know we had it.
It was just under a pile of crap in the back, if you can...
- That'll work. - So, that, that's your box?
- It was here all the time. - Of course it was.
I'm not too happy about cutting these pictures.
And we only have pictures of you and I together, babe.
I actually... I actually have a photo of Kevin,
I know that's strange, um... What?
- No, I have my... - What?
The back of this old photo that I have, and it's just been in my wallet forever.
It's right here.
What?
You know what, I'll just... I'll cut this picture that we have here.
Just use this one, it's fine. Just scratch off the number.
Cut.
Great, I think we got one of everybody except me so...
I'm glad you guys all keep a lot of pictures of your friend, Amir.
We'll take one of you.
Smile. Dickhead.
Let me see. It's not exactly the same.
It's not the same as the one from the other box.
It's exactly the same.
They took a picture of me in the other house but it's not exactly the same.
This is what we're talking about. That's a divergent moment.
That's what we're gonna do right now with these dice.
Right.
Wait, since we're the blue house,
shouldn't we use a blue pen? Just to make it even more...?
That makes sense.
- The odds go up by three. - Right.
So does everyone has a die?
What's yours? Beth?
All right. 6.
- Hugh? - 3.
- Mike? - 4.
6.
2.
Does you guys know what a quick code is?
You know when you are going online going into your bank account...
and when you go to your password it'll give you...
- a picture to choose? - Yeah.
That's your quick code.
That's called a MFA, a multi-factor authenticator,
we do 'em, we put em in whenever we...
build our big sites. It's an icon, right?
Sort of a random...
A random object.
Yeah, so what if each of these has a random object in it to sort of serve...
as that quick code, right?
Right, right. So we pick something to put in there.
So we can put anything in there, right, uh, a candle or a book or...
The oven mitt.
- Or a ping pong paddle. - Or a ping pong paddle.
Exactly.
- How's this? - A coaster?
And this is random, right?
Is anything really random tonight?
If you have to leave this house, when you go to check the box,
open it up, if you see that, you know you're off to a good start.
Ok. So we've got the box.
Yeah, and it only took all night to figure it out.
We've marked the house if we stay together,
keep our heads up and nobody wanders off, we can get through this.
- Thanks, coach. - Yeah.
- You want something? - Yeah, water. Water would be great.
I'm gonna get a drink.
I wonder how different those numbers are from the first box?
Let me check.
Where's my calculator?
Let's see. So if there's 8 of us.
And it's... six times six...
times six times three different colored sticks.
Six times three is five million, thirty-eight thousand,
eight hundred and forty- eight possible variables.
So that's the variable.
- Are you ok? - Huh huh.
- Everything okay with the numbers? - Yeah.
Do you remember what number was written on the back of your picture?
- Five. -Yeah? - Hmm hmm.
I found a good spot out front, just as...
long as another Hugh and Amir don't come by.
Kevin do you remember what number was written on the back of your picture?
Uh, six.
Beth?
Uh, three.
- Hugh, do you remember? - I was a three.
- You sure? - Yeah.
What's going on in the kitchen?
Pound cake.
The girls are breaking out dessert before the other house eats it.
Hey, Mike, I need to show you something.
The numbers that I remember from the box that was brought here from the...
other house are these numbers.
But these are the numbers that I found here.
In this notepad.
And I just asked everyone if they can remember their number...
Beth and Lee are from this house originally.
Because they have never left.
But the rest of us we are not from this house.
We are visitors.
Which means that this Lee is not your wife.
Are you with me?
Well, there's more. Because Hugh and Amir.
...are from a third house.
He just showed me his phone... it's not cracked.
Remember that dark area that. We walked through? I have a feeling that...
whoever walks through that is like they end up in the middle of a roulette wheel,
and then we'll just end up somewhere by chance.
And whoever walks through there will not return to the house that they just left.
And I think that we need to find our way back to our house before the comet passes...
because once we, once it passes we might just be stuck exact... here!
Wherever we are.
I don't want to be stuck here.
If your theory is true. If we walk through the dark space and it is a roulette wheel...
there's no way we can be sure we would go back to our original house.
I think we just stay here. I think we're stuck here.
I put it out near the gate. Should be all right.
If we all stay here we should be okay.
- Don't open it! - Who is that?
- What, what is it? - Mike.
Oh, fuck me. Oh, jeez...
"Mike, my friend. Beth plus book.
Book equals Trinidad Club. Don't let it happen.
Whatever it takes, Buddy What's this?
It's just, no.
Mike had this, he had this crazy idea that maybe if he left...
this note out there it could stop them getting the book.
It's nothing, it was a stupid idea.
Yeah, but our Mike didn't deliver it. What is this?
No, it's just...
some crazy other Mike running around. It's nothing.
But you know what it is? What is this?
- We talked about it. - Well, what is it?
Really, it's nothing. We don't have to get upset.
- Just let it go and... huh? - Then why can't you tell us?
Beth?
- Mike, what is this? - Oh, shit.
It's... nothing.
If it's nothing then why does my wife have a fucking nose bleed?
- Oh, honey. - Oh, God.
Beth, what the hell is this?
- I told you. I told you this was the worst. - What is the idea?
- Twelve years ago. Mike and Beth. - Oh, you've gotta be kidding me.
He was gonna blackmail...
himself so they would not get the book.
This is bad... this is really bad.
Wait, you never told Hugh?
It was on my to-do list.
We just have to get through the night, okay? Let's just try...
- He told you! He said he told you about it! - Well, why didn't you tell me about it?
Because you didn't say anything about it...
Who else knew about this?
Lee? Did you know about this?
Yes.
- Kevin? Did you know? - He told us he told you.
- Everybody here knew about this except me? - He told us you knew!
Everybody knew about this except me?
Hugh, listen, it's not what it seems. It's...
...we don't even belong here.
You are...
fucking too much, man. You are fucking too much.
Listen, we're visitors here. This isn't our house.
- What are you talking about? - This is Lee and Beth's house.
You sleep with my wife and this is what you're telling me?
Check your phone. Is your phone broken?
- What the fuck does that- - Just tell us. Is your phone broken?
Just do it. Show us.
No, my phone is not broken. Now what does that
have to do with you sleeping with my wife?
Your phone has always been broken from the
beginning of the evening your phone was broken.
No, Em's phone is broken.
- You showed us your phone... - So was yours.
The first box we got... there was a random item, what was your random item...
What the fuck does this have to do with anything?
What was your random item?
- What was your random item? - Answer him.
The stapler.
No, no, no. We had an oven mitt.
And ours was a ping-pong paddle.
- What? - Mine was a napkin.
- What the fuck are you talking about? - Hugh, that is not my Lee.
That is not your Beth. And I am not your Mike.
You, you aren't mad at me. We're in a different, a different reality here.
Yeah, we're in a different reality because the reality where I am from...
my best friend didn't sleep with my wife.
Hugh, do you not understand what I'm saying?
This all started tonight.
If there are a million different realities, I
have slept with your wife in every one of them.
Jesus, Mike.
- You fucking... - No, no, no!
- Hugh! - Come on!
- Get him off! - Come on!
Are you okay? I'm gonna get some ice. I'm gonna get some ice.
Are you okay?
Sit down.
You okay, baby? Here, let me give you a little of this.
Yeah, yeah.
Okay, I'm going put something on it. I'll put something on it.
You know, I've made some...
some choices that I'm stuck with.
I'm stuck here.
I'm like the dead cat, you know?
This whole night we've been worrying...
there's some dark version of us out there somewhere.
What if we're the dark version?
Fuck.
There's someone in the house!
Get the hell outta here!!
- No, no, no, no, no. - Jesus!
- Are you okay? - Who the fuck was that?
Mike? Mike?
Does anybody know what to do?
- Is he breathing? - Jesus Christ!
- Laurie, it's ok! Laurie! - I'm sorry! I'm sorry! Oh god!
Calm down! Laurie!
Laurie, you're gonna be fine.
Laurie, Jesus!
Can somebody help Mike?
Kevin, shut her the fuck up!
Sshh. It's ok. It's ok, Laurie. Just breathe.
Em! Em!
Em, where are you going?
Just calm down. Get a rag. Get a towel. Anything. Are you all right?
Get it off! I can't fucking stand blood! What's wrong with her?
Just calm down!
She's bad news.
It's been years since we'd seen each other, we did...
I have to work a lot, and it's gonna be fun.
You're gonna be always working, what are you gonna do?
I don't know. Just hang out, I guess. Yeah, investigate.
Fund raise. Get those Vietnamese to invest.
Fund raise in San Francisco. Invest in the Vietnamese.
It's supposed to be gorgeous though.
My cousin lived over there for about a year and said it was just spectacular.
Have you been there?
No. Cambodia.
Cambodia was awesome.
- Whoa! - What the hell was that?
- It was like a car window or something. - It sounded like glass.
It sounded like a windshield.
That's mine.
Should we get the uh, the glowsticks to take outide?
We're not going to a rave.
You want to go to a rave, party man?
I don't see anybody. You ok?
Whose is that right there?
Oh, for fuck's sakes.
Oh, shit.
I just got this. I just got this.
I'm sorry.
- There's no structural damage. - Did they take anything?
They didn't take my fucking...
- They didn't take my stereo. - Come on.
You know, why don't we check the rest of our cars, and see what's going on.
Yeah.
Honey, where's our car?
- In the driveway. - Em, you good?
Yeah, I'm right up here.
Hey! What are you doing?
Guys, she's in here!
We were looking for you.
Oh, I was just um, by my car.
You ok, babe?
Yeah, I just. yeah.
- You got away from us. - I did.
I guess worse things could happen at a dinner party.
I went and got the, the ring.
Em. What were you doing out there?
Em? What were you doing out there?
Um.
The view is really beautiful of the comet out there.
- You came in that door? - Yeah.
What's wrong with that door?
That's the Door To Nowhere. Don't you know?
- Let's go take a look. - Let's check it out.
We keep hearing about the feng shui.
Guys, it's freezing outside.
- C'mon. - You mentioned it. Let's look at it.
How come we never use this patio?
Well, we never have comets.
What's it doing?
It's breaking up.
Is that what they do?
Yeah, I guess so. So Em, is does Katherine Meriss gonna...
understudy your life while you're gone for a month?
Oh, no one can...
Ooh!
I like that.
Oh, come on...
I wish we could roast marshmallows on that meteor.
Yeah? Em?
Yeah? You okay?
Yeah, I'm fine. The toilet just got backed up!
You can't use that one. You gotta use the main one, ok?
Ok. I'll be right out.
Oh, my god, Em!
Hey. You're up. I'll make some breakfast. It'll be ready in like five minutes.
Oh, hi. You feeling better?
Yeah.
Okay. I'm gonna get dressed. I'll be back.
Morning.
You okay, babe?
You okay? You totally passed out last night.
Mumbling. Put you on the couch. Found that in the bathroom.
That's weird. That's you calling me. Hello?
