Ask him for his last name.
What?
I want a full name for my report.
I'm not putting in my report I lost a crew member on a deepsat expedition. . .
. . .to find an alien named Jerry.
Please! "Jerry"?
We ought to tell him that we're enjoying it too.
Ask him where he's from.
Where are you from?
"l make a journey. You make a journey. We make a journey together. "
I think Jerry's channeling Deepak Chopra.
A journey from where?
He's happy.
He's crafty.
What happened?
Damn, I think we lost him.
We're not alone.
We are definitely. . .
. . .not alone.
It's trying to make contact with us.
Whatever it is, it was inside that Sphere. Now it's out, free to act.
What do you mean by that?
Free to take over our computers. . .
. . .call us on the phone, come knock on the door if it wants to.
A physical presence.
What are you thinking about?
That last part where he said, "l am happy. "
Don't you want Jerry to be happy?
Honestly?
What's on your mind?
I would be happy if Jerry had no emotions whatsoever.
Because the thing of it is, here's Jerry. . .
. . .an emotional being, cooped up for 300 years with no one to talk to. . .
. . .none of the socialization, the emotional growth. . .
. . .that comes from contact with other emotional beings. . . .
So?
What happens if Jerry gets mad?
What is that sound?
Did you hear it?
You hear that thump?
What is that sound?
Can you hear me? Did you hear that thump?
You are a hell of a woman.
I wish I knew you in the old days. Norman told me you were--
Norman told you what?
Let's put it this way, that if Jerry could read your mind. . .
. . .he'd be bored with ours.
What is that sound?
Can you hear me?
This is Norman.
I get no answer from Edmunds and there's strange noises. Something's going on.
It looks like Edmunds is up on the side of the Habitat.
I'm not getting anything on sonar, but watch yourselves out there.
Would you hit your callback buttons, please?
What'd you tell Barnes?
About what?
About me.
You told him I took 20 Nebutol and tried to kill myself.
Didn't you?
He had my notes. What do you want me to do?
Did you tell him who I called?
Oh, God.
Come in.
Did you guys find that thumping yet?
I don't get it. What could've done this to her?
My God!
She's like a rag doll.
Her body's been completely pulverized.
My God.
"--tentacles 27 feet long. That would make a formidable monster. "
Let's go. Come on. What?
What is that?
What does this mean?
Talk to me.
What does this mean, Beth?
There's something up there!
Guys, I'm getting a reading on the sonar.
You're not alone out there.
What the hell makes eggs this size?! Come on! Jesus, let's go!
All right!
Norman, let's go. Come on. Let's go!
What the hell is going on?
It's 80 yards and closing.
Get out of there.
What the hell?
What the hell is it?!
Come on, Norman! Come on, let's go!
60 yards. How close are you?
What is it?
What the hell is it?!
40 yards. Move, move!
Come on. It's something big! Let's go!
Where is it? What is it?
20 yards! Move!
I need a report.
I don't know what's going on out there. There are eggs everywhere.
You should've brought one back.
I wasn't up for an Easter egg hunt. Maybe that's what Edmunds was doing.
I want to talk to Jerry.
If we're going to talk to this thing, we got to have a game plan.
Specific.
We have to have an objective. We have to know what we're addressing.
Jesus.
Can you hear me?
You've heard everything we've talked about.
That's great.
This is Ted here.
I'm the guy who decoded the keyboard thing that you--
Shut up!
Tell him we need to discuss this alone.
Use your words.
He's mad.
-Use your words. -Let's just pull the plug.
It may not be that simple.
It's that easy. We leave him alone, he leaves us alone.
Maybe he doesn't want to be left alone.
He's been down here in isolation for 300 years. Maybe Jerry's lonely.
What's that?
It's our sonar picking up something outside.
Jerry, we all think that you're a fascinating. . .
. . .and wonderful entity. . .
. . .and wish to talk to you for hours. You know that, don't you?
In your great understanding and wisdom. . .
. . .you must know that entities such as ourselves. . .
. . .need to be private. We have to talk alone sometime.
You know what it is?
Where'd he go?
Shit!
Something's clogging everything up out there.
It's back.
Positive thermals on the in-line perimeter.
What's that?
Something is hitting the sensor grid.
Do we have any defenses?
We can run a high-voltage current on the skin of the Habitat.
But every time we try it, we start an electrical fire.
Peripheral sensor's activated. I'll try to image it on the fast-acting sonar.
Building an image.
80 yards, closing fast.
Jesus Christ, it's 40 feet long.
50 yards.
Re-imaging.
That's the same image I saw when you were looking for Edmunds.
It looks like a giant squid.
A squid the size of the entire Habitat? There's no such animal.
That may be, but that doesn't mean it isn't here.
Re-imaging. 30 yards.
What the hell is going on?
Jerry, if you can hear me, it's Norman.
If we've made you angry. . . .
We got a pressure drop.
Go to the control room and wait for me!
Just go, please!
Go! I'll tell you!
What's that sound? What is that?
It sounds like it's right above us.
I know where it is, but what is it?
I'm in the control shaft! We got a leak in here!
Hello?!
Holy shit!
Do you hear me?
You got to increase the positive air pressure and drive the water out.
Increase the pressure? Won't that use up our air supply?
If the Habitat is full of water, you'll be dead.
Open the red gate valve.
The pressure is dropping! We'll be crushed like a tin can!
Find the red knob! It's the only one in the room!
Got it!
Good.
We're getting positive pressure.
Not too much.
Start to ease it back.
Turn it back!
The pressure is too high!
We'll explode! Can you hear me?
Turn it back!
We're here!
Jesus!
Can you hear me?
I got him!
Turn the red gate valve.
Which way?
Clockwise. Close it.
Done!
We're still leaking!
It's not the shell. It's the internal pipes.
We're okay.
What the hell is out there?!
Listen to me.
Whatever it is, it's not letting go.
Pull the green lever marked "high-voltage defense system. "
He said it would start a fire! Don't do it!
You said it would start a fire!
We're going to die down here. Pull it.
Barnes, do you hear her?
Don't listen to her. She's crazy. Pull the green lever.
Pull the lever!
He's trying to pull something! Don't do it!
Do you hear her?!
Don't listen to her. Pull the goddamn lever!
Don't do it. If we start a fire. . .
. . .it'll eat up all of our oxygen!
Don't do it!
We've got failures all over the place! We're taking on water!
It'll set a fire! There's no way out!
Shut up! What am I going to do?!
You're going to be squid food! Pull it!
What am I going to do? We're falling apart!
We're okay.
You don't have to be right all the time.
Anybody got some Advil?
We got a fire in the comm room.
Get up there. I'll meet you with gas masks, in case we need them.
Extinguishers?!
There's one there.
I got it!
-How do you work it? -Pull the pin.
Are there any more?
In the dorm.
Alert, alert. Emergency doors now activated.
Alert, alert. Emergency doors secured.
Alert, alert. Emergency doors now activated.
Wake up!
What are you doing?
Harry, wake up!
Shit!
Alert, alert. Emergency doors now activated.
Doors secured.
It's coming through the ceiling panels. Try to get it through the cafeteria!
Okay, I'm going up. Get back!
Don't, Jerry! Don't.
You okay?
Hang on!
Get out!
This is Norman, Jerry. Can you hear me?
It's Norman. Is that you, Jerry?
Who put out the fire?
Who put the fire out?
He's dead. Barnes is dead. He got cut in half by the door.
Beth and I put him in a body bag.
I know. Something happened to Ted, Jerry.
I can't.
It's not in my power.
There was a fire and. . . .
And I froze.
I didn't help him.
I wanted to, but I didn't help him.
I knew him since he was 1 7 years old, and I let him go.
But I'd like to just deal with this at a later time.
You made that, Jerry?
No, that's all right.
Very important. Nothing more right now. Please.
You have to stop.
Listen to me.
This is critical.
Your manifestations injure our entities.
And pretty soon there'll be no more entities left to play with. . .
. . .and you'll be all alone again. . .
. . .because you can't control yourself.
Because with all your power, you don't have the power to stop, do you?
What name do you want?
Hi, Harry. How you doing?
Can you believe what happened?
What?
You know, the attack on the Habitat.
You know there was an attack on this place?
I must've slept through it.
-You slept through it. -I was dead tired.
Smoke didn't bother you?
All the leaking?
You ever read this book, Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea ?
I found it in the john. Someone's misguided attempt at levity.
I always loved this book.
Could never get past page 87 though. Too scary.
You seem strangely detached, given our predicament.
I don't know, Norman.
With all your running around, what have you accomplished?
You knew I was running around?
Have you seen Beth?
No. Thought she's with the others.
What others? Barnes and Ted are dead, Harry.
There's nobody left down here that knows how to run the place.
Right?
The fire screwed up the electronics.
We've used up. . .
. . .most of our reserve gas.
You're reading your book.
Somebody has to go reset the mini-sub.
If you don't reset it every 1 2 hours, it'll float to the surface.
I'll go.
-I'll go. -You sure?
If the storm clears. . .
. . .it might be our only way out.
Can I talk to you for a second?
I don't want Harry anywhere near that mini-sub.
Think he'll leave without us?
I think he already left without us. Harry's in a whole other place.
He slept through the attack. You don't find that a little strange?
I guess it's just you and me, babe.
You and me?
I'll keep my eye on you from the control room.
Reset.
Reset, where are you?
There you are.
Are there supposed to be bubbles. . .
. . .coming out of. . .
. . .out of here too?
I think I have bubbles coming out of my hose or something.
Can you tell me what to do? It's fogging me all up here.
There's something wrong here!
I got to get out of here! Tell me what to do! What do I push?
Where the hell are you?
Help me.
I don 't think I'll ever get back!
Tell me what to do!
I can't breathe!
Watch out for that rock.
It's me, Harry. Come around the rock.
Go to the right of the stanchion.
Tell me what to do. I'm hurting.
Come around which way?
I can't breathe!
Yes, you can breathe.
It's just a faulty valve. It won't kill you. You got plenty of gas.
I can 't tell which way I'm going!
See the air lock? Right in front of you.
I can 't bear the feeling in my ears!
And I can't breathe.
-Where is she? -Slow your breathing.
-You'll hyperventilate. -She said she'd keep an eye out for me.
I looked all over the Habitat for her. I thought she was with you.
Where is she?
Where is she?!
Did she tell you she was going out?
I can 't hear you.
If she can't hear, why'd she answer?
What are you doing?
I went looking for food. We're out of food.
I was just up there. Stuff all over, but there's plenty of food.
You went to look for food in the spacecraft. That seems a little odd.
No. What seems odd about it?
Even if there was food, wouldn't it be at least 300 years old?
I was hoping for a cryogenic freezer, you know?
Maybe a bottle of Bordeaux.
She's lying. She's lying about everything.
Is Harry up there with you?
Why don't we talk when you get back. Meet me in the galley.
I'll buy you a cup of coffee. There's still coffee, isn't there?
Very funny. I'll take mine black, like my mood.
All right. See you soon.
We got 2 ingredients here: Beth and this underwater environment.
Put them together, you got one big-ass bomb.
How did it go in the mini-sub?
It was a little disconcerting out there, actually.
Weren't you supposed to be watching out for me from the control room?
Yeah, but. . .
. . .Harry said he'd take over for me. You sat down at the monitors.
What happened?
I was in trouble.
Where were you?
-What's going on? -"What's going on?"
Going out to look for 300-year-old food in that spaceship. . .
. . .when there's plenty of food here isn't exactly normal.
"Plenty of food"?
There isn't any. . . .
A veritable horn of plenty.
He must have hidden it.
You think I hid all that food?
I don't know what's going on.
I was standing right here.
And there was no food in the cupboards.
And there was no food in the fridge.
Why?
Why would Harry do that? Why would he set you up?
I don't know.
You don't know?
I'm telling you. . .
. . .I was standing here. . .
. . .and this food was not here!
Calling Dr. Halperin. Dr. Beth Halperin. Please return to reality.
Shut up.
You can see what he's doing to me.
You said you'd watch me. You didn't.
You think Harry said something he didn't. . .
. . .that cupboards are empty when they're full.
Clinically, we would call that evidence of a psychotic break.
I am not crazy, Norman!
You going to write me a prescription?
And just get rid of me again? It's not that convenient down here!
I am not psychotic!
How about a mini-psychotic break?
That's not fair.
What?!
I'm down there. I can't breathe. I'm hyperventilating. The man saved me.
Wait a minute!
You want me to believe that he set you up! Why?
This isn't Alice ln Wonderland !
Remember, "just you and me, babe"?
Is it unrealistic to think that at this point. . .
. . .you are a danger to yourself, to all of us. . .
. . .because of your anger toward me, which happened 1 0 or 1 5 years ago. . .
. . .which is so distorted in your head!
I was out there.
You almost got me killed!
The man tried to save my life! You now want me to disbelieve Harry?!
Yes, I want you to disbelieve Harry! I want you. . .
. . .to look at me and believe for one time.
Look at me. Am I telling you the truth?
You weren't there.
You want to believe Harry, then that's fine.
Because he's done everything but part the sea for you since we've been here.
But I'm telling you. . .
. . .that he is not. . .
. . .telling you the truth.
This is not about Harry.
Is it?
Who's this about?
He didn't tell you what's inside the Sphere, did he?
You didn't tell him what's inside the Sphere.
And how would you know that?
Did you go inside?
Answer me. Did you go inside the Sphere?
Why won't you answer me?
It's a question.
You don't want to talk to me.
Remember?
Answer a question.
What do you think?
You think she went in the Sphere?
Here.
You dropped your book.
What isn't Harry telling me?
I know you're there. You're always there.
What's inside the Sphere?
Harry is reading this book. . .
... Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea.
What makes me nervous is that after page. . .
. . .87. . .
. . .it's all blank pages.
Why?
Why did he go into the Sphere. . .
. . .and come out like this? Why?
Why, Jerry?
Why is this book half a book, Jerry?
Why? Why?
What's going on?
He's got G equals one.
That's right.
He's got B equals two.
He's got. . .
. . .H equals three.
That's not right.
Harry's got the code wrong.
H doesn't equal three.
Harry not only makes it real for himself, Beth.
He makes it real for you. He makes it real for me.
He has made it real for everybody.
It's really frightening because you don't know whether it's really real. . .
. . .or whether he's made it real for us to believe it's real.
And it's because of the Sphere.
Our Harry is Jerry?
Come on, I'm just as tired as you are.
I know you can get this. Okay?
Harry said he couldn't get past page 87 because he said it was too scary.
There's nothing on the pages. Where's the rest?
Read what's on page 87.
"According to calculations of some naturalists. . .
. . .one of these animals, only 6 feet long, would have tentacles 27 feet long.
That would make a formidable monster. "
What does Harry hate?
Squid.
And when he read that, it scared him.
Getting the picture?
Remember all those. . .
. . .jellyfish that attacked?
What was Harry doing then?
Sleeping.
He was dreaming.
And this is the really wild part:
What he dreamed. . . .
Happened?
It happened.
You're telling me that. . .
. . .because Harry went inside the Sphere, he now has the power to manifest. . .
. . .his dreams, his fantasies. . . .
Manifest. He manifested it.
He made it happen.
We better not piss him off.
It's not that different from a child, right?
A child imagines that what it's imagining happens.
But it doesn't.
But with Harry, it does.
In fact, it's so real, it's not only real to Harry, it's real to all of us.
And what I can't understand is that ever since he went in the Sphere. . .
. . .the Sphere has a power. . .
. . .that projects every subconscious thought Harry has onto the computer.
It prints it out and we interact with it.
We thought it was Jerry. It's not Jerry. It's Harry.
Harry's Jerry.
Does Harry know this?
But you went in the Sphere and nothing happened.
Obviously, I didn't go in the Sphere.
You never went inside the Sphere? You didn't go in there?
I was so angry at you.
I wanted you to be scared.
Maybe you had a right to be.
Thanks.
You sure you didn't go in there?
I don't know about you, but I don't feel like dying down here.
What we're going to do is find something to put Harry under.
We can put him in some kind of deep unconscious sleep.
Dreamless sleep, I hope.
A dreamless sleep, yes.
How do we do that?
I got a bunch of drugs up there.
Fancy that.
-"Diphenylpyraline. " -Burns.
-"Ephedrine hydrochloride. " -Motion sickness.
"Valdomet"?
-Ulcers. You might want to keep that. -"Sintag. "
Sintag is a synthetic opiate. It's a painkiller.
I might want to keep that.
-What about "parasolutrine"? -Really?
I got paracin trichloride. That's an anesthetic.
Do you combine it?
You give about 20 cc's of this one, 6 of this one.
You're in business.
Here's some more paracin trichloride.
Good. We'll knock him out for about 3 to 6 hours.
I'm going to hold him.
What's going on?
Go back to sleep.
I didn't know it would be that fast-acting.
We didn't kill him, did we?
I don't think so.
Okay.
Come on, come on.
Here we go.
It's a code.
How the hell are we supposed--
It's decoding itself.
"Weather normal. Surface support vessels return. "
6 hours and counting, we're out of here.
It's over.
If you trust it.
You know me, I believe everything.
Get out!
Get off!
They're Belcher sea snakes, Norman.
The most poisonous snakes in the world.
But they're nocturnal. They're only dangerous at night.
Norman, can you meet me at the lab, please?
I have something I need to show you.
What are you doing? I'm here.
What are you doing?
Why are you locking me in?
You manifested the snakes.
Norman, up here.
You're the only one who could be manifesting these snakes.
Turn around. Turn around and look on the table.
-See the hypodermic needle? -Yeah.
I want you to inject yourself.
It's the same thing. . .
. . .that we used to inject Harry.
We gave Harry this stuff because he was manifesting and we wanted to--
You're manifesting your fears. . .
. . .the jellyfish. . .
. . .now the snakes.
The squid thing was Harry, but he's asleep.
He's in a dreamless sleep. It couldn't be him. You are the only one left.
What would the snakes have to do with me? I didn't go in the Sphere.
See the jars?
I put the snakes in there and they disappeared in front of my eyes.
Who's manifesting them, Norman?
You are.
I don 't have anything to do with snakes.
If you don't use the hypodermic needle, I'm going to have to defend myself.
I'd remember if I went in the Sphere!
Don't make me do this. I don't want to do this.
I didn 't manifest anything.
I didn 't manifest the squid. I didn 't manifest the....
I shouldn 't be talking to you like this.
Why are you taking the gas out of the room? That's my air.
What's with this water?!
Think it through. Whose childhood fears were the jellyfish?
-Jellyfish? -Remember, Norman?
I'm not the only one who's afraid of jellyfish.
This wasn't exactly a jellyfish.
Jellyfish like this are unheard of.
Anybody can be. . .
. . .afraid of jellyfish. A lot of people are afraid of them.
Isn't it possible that you went inside the Sphere. . .
. . .and you just don't remember?
I didn't go inside the Sphere! You would've seen it on the video!
I didn't go inside the Sphere.
Yes, you did.
Is he alive?
You went inside the Sphere...
...and you just don 't remember. That's the problem.
It's not me! I'm not going to use it!
Inject yourself with the hypodermic needle.
It's your snakes. See?
It's all a fear. It's just a fear.
You can make it go away. just use the hypodermic needle.
And the ships will come and we'll get out of here.
What are you doing?! You're going to kill me!
You can stop it.
Try to pull yourself together.
Your fears are going to kill all of us.
Please, don't open the hatch.
You'll freeze to death in the water.
You'll kill yourself! Don't open the hatch!
I know enough not to get killed down here.
Are you the most qualified in your field?
What exactly are your qualifications? Why are you here?
Why are you here?
Are you the most qualified?
You almost got me killed.
You're a danger to all of us.
Come back to reality.
What are you doing?
Are you real?
As real as the water that almost drowned me.
You tried to kill me.
What are you doing there?
Beth, you went into the Sphere.
Didn't you?
Answer me.
I don't know what to think. I feel like I can't breathe.
I'm losing it, you know?
I'm trying to keep it together, but. . . .
What's going on?
Why'd you put me out?
What are you guys up to?
You went in the Sphere, Harry.
So did Beth.
So did l.
I think.
And if so, what?
Everything that we feel or think. . .
. . .just. . .
. . .happens.
That's what happened to the astronauts.
The astronaut in the chair, what did you say about his head?
He had. . .
. . .blunt force trauma. He got hit in the head.
They went into the Sphere one by one. . .
. . .became afraid of each other, till they killed each other off.
And we're doing the same thing.
I don't want to kill you.
Your attention, please.
All construction personnel must exit the blast area...
...immediately.
Panther explosives are now activated.
Mark 13 minutes and counting.
Want to tell me who that voice is?
They had explosives down here to blow up the coral.
So when I went out before, I set up a defense perimeter around the spaceship.
Something must have triggered it.
Something from inside the Sphere.
-Nothing in the Sphere. You know that. -Then what?
I don't know.
Then who?
It's me.
Oh, God.
I was just thinking about the explosives.
It just flashed inside my mind. It must've triggered them.
I was thinking about wanting to die.
You put explosives near the spacecraft?
Yeah, I did.
But they're about 1 00 yards away.
There's a lot of liquid hydrogen left on that spacecraft.
If it explodes, it'll disintegrate everything.
Mini-sub, now! Let's go!
I hope there's a ship up there.
Your attention, please.
All construction personnel must exit the blast area immediately.
Panther explosives are now activated.
Mark 10 minutes and counting.
Let's go! Let's go!
Come on, come on!
Come on, move!
Keep moving.
We're not going to make it!
There's not enough time.
Just keep moving.
We're not out of time. We're not going to die here. Keep moving.
Let's go, Norman.
It's not like I drive subs, okay?
You're driving one now.
Oh, my God!
What's going on?
I don't know.
Why are we inside the spaceship?
I don't know.
Let's go!
Now alert, alert. 5 minutes and counting.
We're not moving. Anybody hit the button?
What the hell?
Wait a minute, this was an elevator before, right?
Which one of us is doing this?
Oh, God.
Alert, alert. Panther explosives armed.
Wait, wait. We were here already!
How much time we got?! Come on!
It's a dead end.
Where are we?
An illusion.
Doesn't look like it.
Beth, which way? Harry, where do we go?
Where? Where's where, Norman?
Around that corner?
And what's there?
Just another blind alley in the maze of our minds. Illusion.
Maybe he's right.
We believe that, we're dead.
Just go on. Leave me.
You're not going to die down here. I'm not going to let you die. Come on.
I'm not going to die.
You have to push the button.
I can't see a button.
I can't see the button.
It's no use.
We die down here.
We're running out of time. They all look the same.
I don't know where we are or what we're stuck in.
Where we are is stuck in the illusion that we can change the future.
It's a dead end.
Just like I said all along:
We die down here.
Maybe he's right.
I'm not going to die.
Beth's not going to die.
And you're not going to die.
Look, just leave me.
We're not in the spacecraft! We're in the mini-sub! This isn't real!
This is your manifestation! Let it go!
It's a dead end.
We're not going to die here.
It's not our time.
Thank God, we're out of here.
Don't start celebrating yet.
Why not?
I don't think we're going fast enough.
For what?
An underwater blast creates a suction. It'll suck us into it.
That is, if the shock wave doesn't kill us first.
Alert, alert. Mark 20 seconds and counting.
Panther explosives are now activated.
640 feet.
630.
620.
61 0. You a religious man, Norman?
Atheist. But I'm flexible.
Pull up, Norman! Pull up!
Come on, pull up!
This is Escort 7.
We have sighted OSSA mini-sub, bearing 105.
Repeat. Bearing 105.
Preparing to make contact for decompression procedure.
What's going on?
More of nothing.
I want to thank you for saving my life.
Interesting life to save.
You get some sleep.
I have no idea what to tell them when they debrief us.
My back is killing me.
Next time I have to remember to stretch before I jettison from a mini-sub.
We've been trapped in here for about 3 days.
They want an explanation. We ought to figure out what we want to tell them.
Killer jellyfish, squid, sea snakes. . .
. . .and an alien being in the form of a giant totemic golden ball? Please.
We destroyed $1 00 million worth of equipment down there and people died.
They want answers. What do you guys want to tell them?
Why aren't we dead?
What?
You said. . .
"The future can't be changed. "
It can't.
But in the spaceship they called it an Unknown Entry Event.
Like we never got here alive to tell them about it.
You said we wouldn't survive. If you can't change the future, we'd be dead.
We're alive. We're not dead.
And in 2 minutes we'll be in a room full of military guys.
They know about the Sphere.
We know Barnes got ahold of them before we lost contact to the surface.
What do you want to tell them?
Why bother? The Sphere's destroyed.
But we still have the power, am I right?
I don't know if I trust them with it. I don't know if I trust you.
I don't want to not be able to sleep, afraid I'll wake up. . .
. . .having manifested some nightmare. . .
. . .and there's all kinds of weird things in my apartment.
That's a frightening thought.
No kidding.
So. . .
. . .if we still have the power. . .
. . .what do you want to do with it?
God knows what they'll do with it.
Are you worried what will happen if it falls into the wrong hands?
Yeah. Frankly, I don't know what the wrong hands are.
Or what's worse: the wrong hands or our hands.
We are the wrong hands.
We proved it.
You know, the 3 of us are enlightened people, we're intelligent. . .
. . .we even recycle our cans and bottles.
But when we got our shot, we manifested every mean. . .
. . .distorting, vengeful, paranoid thought you could think of.
We did.
Right?
You believe we still have the power.
Of course we still have it.
And that's the answer to the equation.
We can't change the future.
We're not dead. But they don't know. Why?
I'm not following you.
Because we have the power. . .
. . .to forget.
To forget.
You want us to agree to forget?
Wait a minute, are we sure that we want to do this?
Yes.
This is the greatest discovery in the history of mankind.
We're just going to white it out like it's a typing error?
I'm sure.
What about you, Beth?
What's the matter, Norman?
It's a little hard to let go of.
Something that could've been. . .
. . .this gift?
The power to make your dreams come true.
We're given the greatest gift in the history of mankind.
We're given this magic ball.
And it says...
"lmagine what you will and you can have it. "
That's an extraordinary gift, but we're so primitive we. . . .
We manifested the worst in us, because what we have inside us. . .
. . .is what we have inside of us, instead of the best of us. What does that say?
We weren't ready, Norman.
We have what's called an imagination.
I mean, look what we're capable of.
We can. . . .
We're not ready.
A long time ago. . .
. . .I did something very. . .
. . .very inappropriate with you, and I'm sorry.
Okay?
Okay.
I don't have any answers, Norman, but these guys are coming so let's. . . .
Okay, we're going to agree to forget. . .
. . .the Sphere. . .
. . .the power. . .
. . .all that ever was.
I don't know how to get this going. You're the mathematician.
How about we just count to 3?
I couldn't have come up with that.
I'll start.
One.
Two.
Three.
Can somebody tell me what the hell that's supposed to be?
Why are you holding my hand?
No, you were holding my hand.
