They fell through a portal and got lost in the 80s, and now their time is running. Katie, you in there? Hello? Katie? Listen, I know I was pretty harsh last night, but you deserved it. I mean, abandoning doctrine, Mr. A in Berlin. Katie. Wow. I've seriously never met anyone more stubborn in my life. Okay, this is ridiculous. I'm coming in. Katie? Oh, no. Katie. Katie. She left me a note in the yak's mouth. Dear Brinley, I know you have a stack of letters from the older version of me. Figured I'd add one to the bunch explaining why I need to leave. Leave and go where? So I'm going to. Oh, no. Good morning, Mr. Security Guard. Hello, young lady. Welcome to Whittier Corp. Where the future is happening today, huh? Oh, you don't say that yet. Well, it's coming. Can you please let JP Whittier know that I'm here to interview for the job as his personal assistant? Thanks, bunches. You know, Ivan, one good thing about being back in 1989 is that I know more than pretty much anyone else here. So the technology is pretty easy to figure out. No offense. None. Take it. You're a fast learner. Thank you, Cyrus Anders, for updating my software. Well, the more I enhance you, the better you can help me. You asked me to warn you if visitors were at the door. Who is it? Dr. J.P. whittier and Angel Graves. Good looking out. Hello again, Cyrus. Doc. Angel. Don't mind us. Yeah, don't mind us. I'm just here for my daily blood draw. Apologies. That's my pager, Ivan. I'll leave it to you. Yes, sir. They take your blood every day? Sometimes more than once. That's intense. Listen, I was thinking, you want to go for a ride? Oh, did I doze off? For about six minutes. The trip here must have depleted me. Portal hopping will do that. Wait, where am I? I told you, I'm. Yes, yes, you're Remy, and this is your room. But why am I here? Not sure I have an answer for you. My memory's been pretty fuzzy lately. I mean, I kinda sorta remember being in this school for a while, but I have no clue exactly when or why. At least I got back to my house here in Pine Hollow, New Jersey, in time to start my junior year of high school. Wait, we're in New Jersey? Don't say it like that. It's the Garden State. We have beautiful beaches, and the city is closed. Yeah, okay, can we get back to the matter at hand? Which is how do you know about portals? Long story, but they were a big part of my podcast during the pandemic. Pandemic? I think I know who you are. BT Dubs. Bruce. Right. You're a bot. Wow, you're good. Yes, I am, Bruce. Hey, Remy. Do you think you could help me get home to my family? Excuse me, did you tell Dr. Whittier that I'm here? Cause I've been waiting for, like, ever. I'm gonna have to ask you to take a seat, miss. We'll get to you when we get to you. But did you tell him the part about me being his assistant? He's gonna want to meet with me. Katie, Are you crazy? Brinley, keep your voice down. What are you doing here? What are you doing here? We had a plan. You going rogue was not it. I didn't think I was part of the plan at all. After last night, you literally told me you would save Cyrus alone. Then I ask you again. What are you doing here? You have no clue what you're walking into. I'm trying to help. To end this nightmare once and for all. Don't forget, I worked here not so long ago. You mean 35 years from now? Whatevs. Point is, I know my way around this place. You didn't work here. You worked at Holiday Corp. For like 10 seconds, I might add. And JP, what are your. Isn't Monica Anders. You're asking for nothing but trouble, Katie. So come on, let's get out of here before you ruin everybody on my arm. I'm not leaving. It's not a problem. Ladies. Dr. Whittier? It's you? Dr. Whittier. I don't think we've met. My name is. I know exactly who you are. This way, I think. Where are we going? You'll see. But I might need your help to get there. What kind of help? Angel, where are you taking the prisoner? Oh, you want me to Jedi mind trick them? These aren't the droids you're looking for, right? It doesn't matter where I'm taking the prisoner. You're going to let us go and forget we were ever here? It doesn't matter where you're taking the prisoner. I won't remember this anyway. Thank you. Wow, that really is freaky. Yeah, sorry. I didn't mean that. As I get it. Thank you, officer. You're welcome. Around this way. Hey, you. Stop. Oh, just give it up. Nevermind. This is kind of fun. Come on. Hopefully that's the last one we need. Okay, now we're just at a big metal door. No guards to convince. Looks like there's an electronic lock. Let me guess. You're gonna hack it. No, that's my sister. But I did bring along a backup plan. Ivan? Yes? Cyrus Anders. Would you mind opening that door for us? Of course. Hi. Yum. This is the helicopter dock, is it? You want to steal a helicopter? What can I say? It runs in my family.
