Then, as if by providence, while museum-going one day you bump into a fellow American, an aging hippie physicist from California, or rather he bumps into you. You strike up a conversation; he invites you for a coffee. You can't shake the feeling that he knows you, but you don't know him.

You scoff; you make as if to leave, but something about this man gives you pause. He doesn't seem crazy. And then he proves to you that the thing works. What does he want from you? Simply this: use the machine to go to a specific place at a specific time - Hollywood, Californi
