00:00:00You
00:00:20Hey, we meet again, hi
00:00:25Nice
00:00:27You know for a minute there, I didn't think you were gonna show up what no I just didn't want to interrupt your book
00:00:33Well, I'm glad you did
00:00:35This place is really cute. You come here often. Oh
00:00:39That was not a line. I swear
00:00:43About twice a week. They make really great macarons
00:00:48You really haven't been no maybe I
00:00:52I travel a lot. So can I ask you a strange question, please? What's your name?
00:00:59What you've never told me really Oh
00:01:06Wow
00:01:07It's Michael Michael. Yeah
00:01:10Grace, I know right
00:01:13Because it is written on my cup. Yeah that but you also told me last time. Oh
00:01:19Oh, wow, these are good. Oh, I'm Michael what
00:01:35Michael
00:01:37Oh
00:01:42Becky yeah, I borrow your black heels. They're in the back of my closet
00:01:49Tump agency is sending me to the Connor building today. What on fifth?
00:01:54What are you doing there? I don't know filing answering phones. So, uh
00:01:58Monday's the first Oh
00:02:01Spot me. I'm a little short grace. You're always short being an adult means paying your half of the expenses. Oh, you sound like mom
00:02:10Look, I'm good for it. I promise the agency said that this job could last two months
00:02:15Could or would should once I dazzle them with my skills
00:02:18Hello, of course one moment while I connect to your call. Yeah. Mm-hmm. Your buttons are off
00:02:25Look, I know tumping isn't ideal, but it gives me time to write and helps me pay my bills
00:02:30And once I sell my book, I will be paying for your half of the expenses. Mm-hmm
00:02:35Hey, uh, do we know a Michael Michael who I don't know
00:02:41Six feet tall dark hair handsome doesn't ring any bells
00:02:45I've been dreaming about him every night for the last week dreaming about him
00:02:49Yeah
00:02:50Like I'll be going for a walk in the park or I'll be back in my junior chemistry class and forgot we had a toss
00:02:56Classic and then he's just there. What does he do?
00:03:00Well, we usually just talk he's
00:03:04Nice. Most of my recurring dreams involve Ryan Gosling. I
00:03:09Need a caffeine. I'm in court all day. Hey, what if we get coffee at Julia's?
00:03:24What time do you get off work, uh
00:03:27Five my friend John's in town. You met him at my birthday last year. Uh
00:03:32Sure. Well, he remembered you
00:03:35Asked how you were. I thought you two could go for drinks. I am NOT going on a blind date
00:03:40It's not a date. Where's it blind just old friends catching up. We exchanged two words and they made an impression. I
00:03:49Just think you should put yourself out there
00:03:52What was the last time you went out with someone interesting?
00:03:55Well, I I'll let him know you'll meet him it says
00:03:59Okay, maybe he goes to my gym who Michael or maybe he works at the bank
00:04:04Or maybe he's a figment of your imagination. No, I mean, I must have had him somewhere. Where else do dreams come from?
00:04:14Welcome to where dreams are made
00:04:17Our staff is hard at work building tonight's dreams today as newly hired dream associates
00:04:23You'll soon be working on this floor where you will have the awesome responsibility of creating the framework for dreams
00:04:34Dreams can reveal deepest desires to the dreamer unlock hidden inspiration
00:04:39Some of you might be familiar with Otto Sandman his most famous assignment. Sir
00:04:44Isaac Newton got the idea for gravity from a dream many credit the Apple, but it was all Otto
00:04:50One of our supervisors Harvey any words of wisdom for our new recruits? No
00:04:55Looks like we caught him before his morning coffee
00:04:58Come on
00:05:05Last stop on the tour
00:05:12You'll recognize these from your orientation dreams are built from memories
00:05:18Every moment of a person's life is sent here to our library
00:05:22Every second of every day of every person on earth logged and filed within the hour and ready to use or dream creation
00:05:32Looks like we've got a request resource Center
00:05:37McMahon is that MC or MAC?
00:05:41What dates
00:05:44Now
00:05:47Marge will pull the requested memories and send them off to one of our many dream associates who will use it to build the dream
00:05:52How far back can we go as far as you'd like first day at a preschool?
00:05:57Humiliating prom night a whole life is at your disposal and there's only
00:06:03one rule
00:06:06A subjects dreams must be constructed from their memories and their memories alone
00:06:12You cannot introduce people places or things to their dream that they have not encountered in life
00:06:21consequences would be
00:06:23dire
00:06:42Oh
00:06:54It's Kevin's birthday, we've got a card got a moment to add your John Hancock. Absolutely
00:07:02How's it going learning curve can be pretty steep that first month not for me
00:07:08I've already scripted the next three nights for all of my assignments with an extra dream ready to go in the event of an impromptu
00:07:14nap I
00:07:17Have a system
00:07:18Make sure you're not biting off more than you can chew
00:07:21I've always been underestimated, but I graduated top of my class double major lucid slumber and whimsy you've mentioned
00:07:27I also might in political science save the hard stuff for the Dream Council. Don't forget your first performance review is this Friday
00:07:38Oh Harvey, who do I call to request more Post-its?
00:07:52Hi, I'm looking for Edward
00:07:59Hi Edward
00:08:01Eddie grace from the agency. All right, we're replacing all the old monitors in the office
00:08:07replaced like
00:08:09The old ones out carry the new ones in hook them up. Oh, I'm sorry
00:08:14I was told you need someone for data entry. We do once we get all these up to the sixth floor
00:08:19Find you a chair then you can start entering the data
00:08:22unfortunately, the elevators are out so
00:08:27Nice shoes
00:08:37You
00:08:59Benedict literary agency, how can I help you? Grace McMahon for Tom Benedict?
00:09:05Oh grace, hi, how's Kalamazoo?
00:09:09Can't complain
00:09:12Kidding I'm sure it's nice. Look I was just calling to see if we'd heard anything back from the publishers yet
00:09:20About my manuscript. No, nothing yet. Well, it's been a month. Yeah, these things take time
00:09:26Publishers have stacks of submissions just like yours
00:09:29Okay, just sit tight. I I promise I'll call you the moment. We hear anything. Yeah, I got a run. Okay. Bye
00:09:44Oh, no, no, no, no, I know Becky
00:09:46You
00:09:52What a lot of people don't realize is that it's actually not hard to perform the S&P especially if you know where to put your
00:09:58money, so
00:10:00Yeah, that's me
00:10:03What do you do?
00:10:05Grace
00:10:07Sorry, what I was just asking what you do for a living. Oh, I work for a temp agency
00:10:16Well temping allows me flexibility in my schedule. So I have time to write. Oh, you're you're a writer
00:10:26Have I read any of your work? Well, I'm not published yet
00:10:32But I have an agent kind of he's a friend of my grandmother he's been taking my book around and
00:10:39We've been getting some good response
00:10:42What's your fallback?
00:10:45My fallback if it doesn't work out I
00:10:49Try not to think like that it's just it's just not a very practical career
00:10:55but but hey you
00:10:59Seem to have a plan
00:11:01Maybe you'll
00:11:03You'll beat the odds. Yeah
00:11:05Yeah
00:11:08I
00:11:12Mean to ballroom dancing
00:11:37You
00:12:04So I said to him you can't move all of your money into
00:12:07crypto
00:12:09It's important to diversify your portfolio
00:12:12Of course, you have to do the cost-benefit analysis of high-risk versus low low-risk being CDs
00:12:20Or hey, if you're willing to go high-risk you can go stocks options futures
00:12:27I feel annuities get a bad rap. Yeah, but actually you're really really
00:12:35Hi, hi
00:12:37He seems nice that's cuz you're out of your shot
00:12:45You look so beautiful
00:12:48Thank you
00:12:50But I have to say I don't remember wearing this on my date
00:12:54really
00:12:56Yeah, I guess my subconscious had notes
00:13:02Wait, I wore this to my spring formal
00:13:07In high school, I can't believe it still fits
00:13:11Well, you put me to shame
00:13:13You look very handsome
00:13:16Thanks. I
00:13:18Gotta tell you though. I am starving everything on this menu was in French
00:13:22So I ordered a salad, but you know what this dream really needs what a cheeseburger
00:13:26With onions and extra pickles. Oh, that sounds so good. I would love a cheeseburger. I give you my pickles. Hey
00:13:35Thanks again for the save
00:13:38Anytime I don't think I could have survived an encore of that date
00:13:43You want to dance? I
00:13:46Don't think it's that kind of restaurant
00:13:53I didn't see that before. Yes, your subconscious had notes
00:14:07I
00:14:37Do you work at a bank No, I'm just trying to figure out where I know you from you really don't know do you
00:14:55Know
00:14:57But I must know you from somewhere. Otherwise, otherwise where else would dreams come from? That's what I said
00:15:07You
00:15:32Well, whatever the reason
00:15:34I'm glad I'm here with you.
00:15:38If we never met, our paths never crossed.
00:15:44Part of me would always be looking for you.
00:15:46I wish this were real, but I'm going to wake up and you're going to be gone.
00:15:51So come find me.
00:15:52I can't.
00:15:53I don't even know your last name.
00:15:54What?
00:15:55I can't hear you.
00:15:56Michael!
00:15:58What?
00:16:00I ... I can't hear you.
00:16:02Michael!
00:16:03Michael?
00:16:27♪♪
00:16:35Hey, Grace!
00:16:37Wrong truck.
00:16:39Ugh.
00:16:40♪♪
00:16:55Ugh.
00:16:56When did you get olives?
00:16:57Because I like them.
00:16:59Smith.
00:17:00How was the date last night?
00:17:02You said it wasn't a date.
00:17:04I lied.
00:17:05Had to go.
00:17:06If I told you it was amazing, could I have a slice of pizza?
00:17:10Are you gonna see him again?
00:17:11All he did was talk about his investment portfolio.
00:17:14Oh, no.
00:17:15A man with a retirement plan.
00:17:16How awful.
00:17:17I just...
00:17:18I didn't feel a spark.
00:17:20You're too picky.
00:17:21Well, what's wrong with having standards?
00:17:22When they're impossible to meet?
00:17:24He was there again last night.
00:17:29Who?
00:17:30Michael.
00:17:31That's eight dreams in a row.
00:17:33They're just dreams, Grace.
00:17:34And they started with the most amazing guy I've ever met.
00:17:37It's like...
00:17:38I can't explain it.
00:17:39We have this connection.
00:17:41And then...
00:17:42He'll look at me and...
00:17:45What does it say about me that my dreams are my best part of my day?
00:17:48That you need to get out more.
00:17:51I just...
00:17:53I've never met anyone like him before, you know?
00:17:55He's smart and funny.
00:17:57And he loves old sci-fi novels and flea markets.
00:18:01And he's just like me.
00:18:02Please tell me this isn't the reason you're not seeing John again.
00:18:05A man who's actually real.
00:18:07Michael might be real.
00:18:08He told me his last name.
00:18:09Oh, yeah? What was it?
00:18:10Michael Roy, ladies and gentlemen.
00:18:12Let's welcome him to the stage.
00:18:13Come on.
00:18:18Thanks so much, everyone.
00:18:20It's so nice to be back in Grand Rapids.
00:18:23Oh.
00:18:25Sorry.
00:18:28Well...
00:18:29Listen, if you like what you hear, tell your friends.
00:18:31I got another show tomorrow night, 8 o'clock.
00:18:34Play Screamer!
00:18:54Ow.
00:19:04Wait.
00:19:05This isn't right.
00:19:08Um...
00:19:15The tapes are swapped.
00:19:21Oh, no.
00:19:23Oh, no.
00:19:29Harvey, I need to talk to you.
00:19:30I'm on break.
00:19:31I can't wait. I...
00:19:32Nora!
00:19:34Hi, Marge.
00:19:35I would like to remind you that we are currently short-staffed at the resource desk.
00:19:41Right.
00:19:42And cannot accommodate your multiple requests.
00:19:44Right.
00:19:45A day.
00:19:48Sorry.
00:19:49Right. Won't happen again.
00:19:54Harvey, wait, please.
00:19:55It's important.
00:19:56If this is about adding accounts, I told you,
00:19:58ten is the limit until after your first review from the Dream Council.
00:20:01I made a really big mistake.
00:20:04How big?
00:20:05You should probably put down that donut.
00:20:14Hi.
00:20:15Grace.
00:20:16Tom Benedict.
00:20:17Do you have a minute?
00:20:19Yeah, of course.
00:20:20Of course.
00:20:21Uh, so the publishers, they got back to us about your book.
00:20:26They're passing.
00:20:29All of them?
00:20:30They all said the same thing.
00:20:31Well written, but feels small.
00:20:35Small?
00:20:37Lacked a wow factor.
00:20:38Played it too safe.
00:20:40Look, Tom, I worked really hard on this book.
00:20:43I mean, can't we bring it somewhere else?
00:20:45You're at nowhere else.
00:20:47Let me ask you a question.
00:20:48What did you do last week?
00:20:50I worked. I had dinner with my sister.
00:20:52I watched a documentary about sharks.
00:20:56Yeah, see, you gotta get out, travel, get into a little trouble.
00:21:02Fill up your creative tank.
00:21:04I feel like you have a lot of potential.
00:21:05You just, you need to find a story worth telling.
00:21:18I love you.
00:21:19I love you too.
00:21:20I love you too.
00:21:47Is my life small?
00:21:49Who said that?
00:21:51You know that lit agent that Nana introduced me to?
00:21:54He said that all the publishers he submitted my book to passed.
00:21:59I'm sorry, Grace.
00:22:00And the mechanic called me today.
00:22:01My car's not gonna be ready till Monday.
00:22:03Do you mind giving me a ride to work tomorrow?
00:22:05Sure.
00:22:07How much is that gonna be?
00:22:09I don't know.
00:22:10More than I have.
00:22:11More than I have.
00:22:14Do you think maybe it's time to look for something a little bit more permanent?
00:22:21Just...
00:22:22With a steady income.
00:22:24Becky, all I've ever wanted to be is a writer.
00:22:27I promised I'd give myself three years to make a go of it.
00:22:31It's been four.
00:22:36Hey, I think you're an amazing writer.
00:22:38But what you're doing now, it's not sustainable.
00:22:42And I think you know that.
00:22:47Um...
00:22:49Page 130.
00:22:53Deciphering dreams?
00:22:55I had time to kill before my deposition.
00:22:57And you made it to page 130?
00:22:59200. Just read.
00:23:01According to Freud, dreams are wish fulfillment.
00:23:06Your greatest desire is realized.
00:23:10You're dissatisfied with your life, so you created the ultimate fantasy.
00:23:16Ugh.
00:23:18You're... You're right.
00:23:20What am I doing?
00:23:21I'm hung up on some figment of my imagination.
00:23:25And I'm not sure what I'm doing.
00:23:27I'm hung up on some figment of my imagination.
00:23:30Hey, it's just a rut, Grace.
00:23:33But the answer isn't to escape into some dream world.
00:23:37It's to go out and have real and meaningful adventures of your own.
00:23:43You can't go through life with your head in the clouds.
00:23:48You gotta come join the rest of us down here sometime.
00:23:57Okay.
00:24:24Hello, Grace.
00:24:26My name is Harvey, and this is Allura.
00:24:28Hi.
00:24:30Hi.
00:24:31We'd like a moment of your time.
00:24:33Do I know you?
00:24:35Do you go to my gym?
00:24:36I assure you, I do not.
00:24:38We are from the land of dreams.
00:24:40Oh, isn't that that ice cream place in Glen Park?
00:24:42It is a plane of existence above the one you know.
00:24:49Okay.
00:24:50Harvey?
00:24:52You know, I'm actually expecting someone, so I'll have to catch you another time.
00:24:55But it was nice to meet you.
00:24:56You won't find him.
00:24:58Michael.
00:25:01He's not here.
00:25:03How do you know about Michael?
00:25:04I know many things, Grace.
00:25:08Who are you?
00:25:09Perhaps it's better if we show them.
00:25:13Welcome to Dream Central, where the world's dreams are made.
00:25:17So, my dreams come from you?
00:25:20Allura is your case manager.
00:25:22I thought I was responsible for my dreams.
00:25:24You are.
00:25:25All the dream associates do is set the scene.
00:25:28They populate the dreams with familiar sights and sounds.
00:25:31We set the pieces on the board.
00:25:33You play the game.
00:25:36You know that dream last week with the hot air balloon?
00:25:38I loved it.
00:25:39That was an all-timer.
00:25:40Thanks.
00:25:41I double majored in—
00:25:42Overconfidence and giving me an ulcer.
00:25:45Which brings us to why we're here.
00:25:47Right this way.
00:25:53There has been a mix-up, I'm afraid.
00:25:57Mix-up?
00:25:59Allura put one of her other assignments into your dreams.
00:26:02It could have happened to anyone.
00:26:04And yet it didn't.
00:26:07Michael Roy, he's a musician out of Portland, Maine.
00:26:11Oregon.
00:26:13He's from Oregon.
00:26:14Regardless, he could be in Maine, he could be in Portland.
00:26:17Where he cannot be is your subconscious.
00:26:20Wait, so...
00:26:22Michael is real?
00:26:24That's irrelevant.
00:26:25You're not supposed to know him.
00:26:26I think it's a little late for that.
00:26:28Not entirely.
00:26:30While this mistake is rather unprecedented, there is a remedy.
00:26:36What's that?
00:26:37We help you forget.
00:26:42Ooh.
00:26:50So, you're just going to take my memories of Michael?
00:26:54You have to agree to it.
00:26:56I do?
00:26:57She does.
00:26:58As I told you, there is a protocol to all of this.
00:27:01Rules.
00:27:02What if I don't want to forget?
00:27:04It's really simple. It's not painful and Michael will be gone.
00:27:07But I like Michael. If he's real, I want to meet him.
00:27:10You can't meet him.
00:27:11I am hoping, when you hear what we have to say, and understand the gravity of the situation, you will accept the term.
00:27:19We are talking about a disruption to the universal order, the very fabric of existence.
00:27:24He asked me to come find him.
00:27:26He wasn't aware of the consequences.
00:27:28I'm sorry, it was my mistake, but you have to say yes.
00:27:31Up and out.
00:27:34Wake up.
00:27:37If I'm going to give you a ride to work, we need to leave soon.
00:27:39What?
00:27:41Because your car is in the shop.
00:27:43Right.
00:27:45Are you okay?
00:27:47Yeah, I think so.
00:27:49Let's go.
00:27:55So then they took me to like this office in the sky.
00:27:58I mean, I assume it was the sky, they didn't specify.
00:28:01But then they said that because I've been dreaming about the sky, I've doomed the universe.
00:28:05How?
00:28:06I don't know.
00:28:07I woke up.
00:28:12What did you have for dinner last night?
00:28:14Leftover pizza.
00:28:15I can't eat anything spicy past 6pm.
00:28:18If I do, bad dreams, like clockwork.
00:28:23I mean, I guess it did have pepperoni on it.
00:28:26I need more torque.
00:28:31Oh my god.
00:28:41It's him.
00:28:57Bye Eddie.
00:28:58See you tomorrow.
00:28:59Tomorrow?
00:29:01Today's your last day.
00:29:03What?
00:29:04No.
00:29:05No, no, that can't be possible.
00:29:07I was told there's another three weeks.
00:29:09I'm sorry.
00:29:10We're all done.
00:29:12Okay, well, thanks.
00:29:19Right, well I took the assignment because it was a guaranteed month.
00:29:23Do you have another placement?
00:29:24I'll take anything.
00:29:28Uh, no, I understand.
00:29:31If something comes up...
00:29:33Hello?
00:29:36Pick up for Grace?
00:29:38Uh, yeah.
00:29:40Hop in.
00:29:41Oh, uh, can I change my destination?
00:29:43Sure.
00:29:44Where are you looking to go?
00:29:46Ooh
00:29:54Like I'd always known you, no surprise
00:29:57Feel it in my bones and I realize
00:30:01Time to wake up from my fantasy
00:30:04Can I take you with me?
00:30:09Thanks so much everyone.
00:30:10Don't forget to tip your waiters.
00:30:15Thanks.
00:30:20Hi.
00:30:21Oh, hi.
00:30:23Uh, it's me.
00:30:25Grace.
00:30:28Grace?
00:30:29Grace.
00:30:30From the last two weeks.
00:30:32From, well, you know.
00:30:35I'm sorry.
00:30:36Oh, were you at one of the Denver shows?
00:30:41Uh, no.
00:30:45You really don't know who I am?
00:30:47Hey, nice show, man.
00:30:49Oh, thanks so much.
00:30:51Another round of applause for Michael Roy.
00:30:53Come on.
00:31:09All good here?
00:31:10Hey.
00:31:15Oh.
00:31:17I know that look.
00:31:18Boyfriend trouble?
00:31:20Not exactly.
00:31:21You know, you need to get it off your chest.
00:31:24I'm all ears.
00:31:25It might make you feel better.
00:31:27That's okay.
00:31:28Um, what are your specials?
00:31:30Come on.
00:31:31Don't be shy.
00:31:33I've heard it all before.
00:31:38I've dreamt about the same guy for the last ten nights
00:31:40and it turns out that he was put into my subconscious
00:31:42because of some sort of cosmic clerical error
00:31:44and I came to Grand Rapids to see him
00:31:45before the dream police could erase him from my memory
00:31:47and it turns out he has no idea who I am.
00:31:49So, yeah.
00:31:54Yeah, we have tuna melt and meatloaf.
00:31:56I'll just take a cheeseburger.
00:31:58Uh, onions, extra pickles.
00:32:12Michael.
00:32:13Hey, Liz.
00:32:14Menu?
00:32:15Yeah, thanks.
00:32:17Excuse me, miss.
00:32:18Can we have the menu, please?
00:32:24Hey.
00:32:25Hi.
00:32:26Excuse me.
00:32:29We meet again?
00:32:31Sorry, I, um, I don't want to interrupt your book.
00:32:34I...
00:32:36I'm glad you did.
00:32:38If you haven't ordered yet,
00:32:39uh, I recommend getting the cheeseburger.
00:32:41Hmm?
00:32:43You know,
00:32:44she could hear you better if you're sitting at the same table.
00:33:12Stay close.
00:33:14It's easy to get lost if you've never been down here.
00:33:20Hello.
00:33:22Hi, kitty.
00:33:24You're so soft and fluffy.
00:33:29And you shouldn't touch anything.
00:33:42Okay, so I'm carrying this monitor down six flights of stairs,
00:33:45and I finally get to the bottom,
00:33:47and security stops me.
00:33:48They think I'm robbing the place.
00:33:50It heals?
00:33:51I know!
00:33:52Apparently, they'd had some kind of theft issue.
00:33:54So I say to the guy,
00:33:55don't you think if I were robbing the place,
00:33:56I would have chosen something more discreet?
00:33:58And then he tells me to empty my pockets.
00:34:00Walked right into that one.
00:34:02No!
00:34:03Yeah.
00:34:05How long have you been temping for?
00:34:07Uh, a few years.
00:34:09It's all right.
00:34:10I'm not the most reliable.
00:34:12Kind of, uh,
00:34:13in between gigs right now.
00:34:16What do you really want to do?
00:34:18I want to be a writer.
00:34:20I can see that.
00:34:22Really?
00:34:23Yeah.
00:34:24You're a great storyteller.
00:34:25Thanks.
00:34:26So, I gotta ask.
00:34:29What was that back there at the bar?
00:34:31Um...
00:34:33A mistake.
00:34:34I...
00:34:36I thought you were someone else.
00:34:38I thought you were someone I knew.
00:34:41This might sound crazy,
00:34:43but I really thought I knew you from somewhere, too.
00:34:46It doesn't sound strange at all.
00:34:48And here we go.
00:34:49Thanks.
00:34:53Have you two had a chance to check out the Taste of Summer?
00:34:56What's that?
00:34:57It's a pop-up street fair.
00:34:59You know what you should do?
00:35:00As soon as you're done here,
00:35:01you should just walk on over there.
00:35:03It's just a few blocks from here.
00:35:04Do they have churros?
00:35:05Well, it wouldn't be a street fair without them, would it?
00:35:08Enjoy.
00:35:10What do you say?
00:35:11Sure.
00:35:12Great.
00:35:14Okay.
00:35:15Pickles?
00:35:16Sorry.
00:35:18I don't know why I just assumed.
00:35:20You just want that.
00:35:23Well, you assumed right.
00:35:32That's fine.
00:35:38Hello.
00:35:39Hi.
00:35:40We're looking for Grace.
00:35:41She's not in.
00:35:43How do you know Grace?
00:35:45We go way back.
00:35:46She'd definitely be happy to see us and not at all alarmed.
00:35:50Okay.
00:35:53Do you know where we could find her?
00:35:55It's really important.
00:35:56I don't, but I can tell her you dropped by, mister.
00:36:00We'll try again later.
00:36:01But...
00:36:02Have a nice night.
00:36:04Yeah, you too.
00:36:07Bye.
00:36:14Grace, your friends are so weird.
00:36:17Why are we leaving?
00:36:19One thing you must understand about people is that they are naturally suspicious.
00:36:23Do we not look trustworthy?
00:36:25We're both wearing company-issued blazers.
00:36:27You have a pocket square.
00:36:29Yes, well, that aside, she wasn't going to help us.
00:36:32Oh, this is bad.
00:36:34This is really bad.
00:36:36My performance review is on Friday.
00:36:38If the Dreamcastle finds out about this, I can't go back to cataloging.
00:36:43We have a few days. Let's not panic.
00:36:46Right. We just need to find Grace and make her see how important this is
00:36:50before I'm cast out of Dreamcentral and lose the only job I've ever wanted.
00:36:56That wasn't panic.
00:36:57Hmm.
00:36:58Where do we look next?
00:37:00If I had to guess, she's gone to find Michael.
00:37:03We told her not to.
00:37:05Another thing you must understand about people is that they are stubborn.
00:37:09What happens if she finds him before we find her?
00:37:13Then you are free to panic.
00:37:30So, um, what's your book about?
00:37:32It's fiction, based on a summer I spent at sleepaway camp when I was 12.
00:37:36Sort of a coming-of-age romance.
00:37:38Oh.
00:37:39Well, the romance part is fictional.
00:37:42So, no first kiss by the lake?
00:37:45No. Though I did get poison ivy at that lake.
00:37:48Oh, no.
00:37:50People would tell these stories at campfires that we did,
00:37:53and one night I finally worked up the confidence to try
00:37:56and made one of my counselors laugh so hard he fell off his chair.
00:37:59It was the best feeling in the world.
00:38:03I'm not superstitious, I swear.
00:38:06Okay, maybe a little.
00:38:11My lucky penny.
00:38:16Have you seen her?
00:38:18Maybe.
00:38:19Who wants to know?
00:38:21I'm her uncle.
00:38:22I thought we were supposed to meet.
00:38:24I can't seem to locate her.
00:38:25Well, maybe you should give her a call.
00:38:27She's not answering her phone.
00:38:29What?
00:38:30She's not answering her phone.
00:38:32What is this?
00:38:33That's apple pie. You want a slice?
00:38:35I've never had it.
00:38:37You've never had apple pie?
00:38:38I've never had pie.
00:38:40She's not from around here.
00:38:42Now, about Grace.
00:38:43Oh, yeah. They went to the street fair.
00:38:45They?
00:38:46Yeah, she left with that musician who's been playing across the street.
00:38:48He's been in here every day this week.
00:38:50His name's Michael. He's really sweet. He's a good tipper.
00:38:54We appreciate your help. Let's go.
00:38:57Uh, hold on.
00:39:01Okay.
00:39:04This is on the house.
00:39:11I bought my first guitar when I was 15.
00:39:14I spent all summer mowing lawns so I could afford it.
00:39:17Have you always wanted to be a musician?
00:39:19Yeah.
00:39:21My mom was a singer.
00:39:23She taught me how to play.
00:39:25Are you from the area?
00:39:26I'm from Kalamazoo.
00:39:28So what brings you out to Grand Rapids?
00:39:30Well, um, the churros.
00:39:33Did you grow up in Portland?
00:39:35How did you know I was from Portland?
00:39:39Um, you mentioned it earlier.
00:39:41Oh.
00:39:42Yeah, I love Portland.
00:39:44My grandmother lives there.
00:39:45I was just there at Christmas with my sister.
00:39:47Well, I'm actually headed back.
00:39:49I've got to catch a train later tonight.
00:39:52I still have time.
00:39:55I'd like to spend it with you.
00:40:00Uh, sorry. Um.
00:40:03Oh, uh, it's actually my sister now.
00:40:06Can we just a sec?
00:40:07Yeah.
00:40:08Okay.
00:40:09Hello?
00:40:10Where are you?
00:40:11I went out for dinner.
00:40:12Where?
00:40:13You wouldn't know it.
00:40:15Are you at a carnival?
00:40:17No.
00:40:18Okay, well, your friends stopped by.
00:40:21Friends? What friends?
00:40:22I don't know. They didn't give names.
00:40:24An older guy, a younger girl.
00:40:26Like they were trying to sell me a reverse mortgage.
00:40:28Uh, did they say what they wanted?
00:40:31Just that they needed to talk to you.
00:40:33It seemed urgent.
00:40:35You're not in some kind of trouble, are you?
00:40:37No, of course not.
00:40:38Okay.
00:40:39Because you can't afford my retainer.
00:40:41Ha, funny.
00:40:42Gotta go.
00:40:44Hey, ring toss?
00:40:47Michael Roy, you're going down.
00:40:49Ha ha.
00:40:51This is the best thing I've ever eaten.
00:40:56Now that she's actually met the young man,
00:40:58it's going to be harder to convince her to give him up.
00:41:01Maybe she won't like him?
00:41:03You think there's a chance they might not get along?
00:41:05No, he's really nice and absurdly handsome.
00:41:12I've always seen pie in memories,
00:41:14but I never knew it could be so good.
00:41:15Why don't we have pie?
00:41:16You can put in a request when we get back.
00:41:21This way.
00:41:23Okay.
00:41:25Now boarding the 1145 to Portland.
00:41:28I had a really nice time tonight.
00:41:30Yeah, me too.
00:41:32I'm glad I got the chance to meet you,
00:41:34even if it was a case of mistaken identity.
00:41:36Funny how that happens.
00:41:38Yeah.
00:41:41Well, uh, if you're ever in Portland, uh...
00:41:45If you're ever in Kalamazoo.
00:41:47Yeah.
00:41:48You know, uh, let me, um...
00:41:50Let me give you my number. We can...
00:41:51Oh, please.
00:41:56Or...
00:41:58And this is going to sound crazy.
00:42:02Take the ride with me.
00:42:05What?
00:42:06You can tell your grandma you're in her neck of the woods.
00:42:08You're close, right?
00:42:09Well, yeah, we are, but...
00:42:11I mean, I can't just drop everything and get on a train.
00:42:14Why not? Your temp gig's over.
00:42:17It'll be like...
00:42:18An adventure?
00:42:19Yeah.
00:42:20Exactly.
00:42:23Look, I'm just...
00:42:27I'm not ready for this night to end.
00:42:30Are you?
00:42:39Grace?
00:42:40Um, yes.
00:42:42Yes?
00:42:43So come on. Let's get a ticket.
00:42:44Yeah, okay.
00:42:45Come on.
00:42:48Come on.
00:42:53What are we going to say to convince her?
00:42:55We need to find her first.
00:42:58There she is.
00:43:04Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:43:06Tickets, please.
00:43:07We're not travelers.
00:43:08We need to speak to the couple who just went through.
00:43:10I can't let you onto the platform unless you have a ticket.
00:43:12You can purchase one at the window.
00:43:14We don't have money.
00:43:15We accept all major credit cards.
00:43:16Marsha, what is your last name?
00:43:19You don't need my last name.
00:43:21And you're from the area?
00:43:22What are you writing?
00:43:28The train is leaving.
00:43:29Are you going to complain to my manager?
00:43:31No, I will be reporting this to someone much higher up.
00:43:35Childhood fears.
00:43:37Clowns, perhaps.
00:43:38No.
00:43:46No.
00:44:13Did you get in touch with your grandma?
00:44:17I did, and she's excited.
00:44:19I also texted my sister.
00:44:21She's a little excited, too.
00:44:23We just silenced that.
00:44:25Sorry.
00:44:26What are you writing?
00:44:27Oh, just had a story idea.
00:44:30Drowning it down before I forget.
00:44:31Can I see?
00:44:32Sure.
00:44:34All right, let me check this out.
00:44:36Story ideas, hopefully.
00:44:38I love that.
00:44:39I keep a notebook on me when I feel inspired.
00:44:43This is awesome.
00:44:47I write my lyrics on napkins.
00:44:49Oh, yeah?
00:44:50Yeah.
00:44:51Works great.
00:44:52Till you lose a killer song to a coffee spill.
00:44:55Are you working on anything at the moment?
00:44:58Yeah.
00:44:59Yeah.
00:45:01But it doesn't really matter.
00:45:03Why not?
00:45:04This is my last show.
00:45:06Of the tour?
00:45:08Ever.
00:45:10I'm going to work for my dad at his distribution plant.
00:45:14One of his accountants just quit.
00:45:16Needs me to fill the position.
00:45:18So it's just temporary until they hire someone.
00:45:22No.
00:45:23He's been trying to get me to join the family business for years.
00:45:27And I tried to fight it.
00:45:29With my music.
00:45:31But nepotism won.
00:45:35But what about your music?
00:45:40Well, you know.
00:45:43World life's hard.
00:45:47There's no money in it.
00:45:49And it's really lonely.
00:45:56It's not the most...
00:45:58Practical.
00:45:59Yeah.
00:46:02You still love it though.
00:46:04I do.
00:46:06Yeah.
00:46:08But sometimes a dream just isn't meant to be.
00:46:19My book was rejected.
00:46:21Oh.
00:46:23I'm sorry.
00:46:25I worked really hard on it and everybody passed.
00:46:30My sister wants me to get a real job but I just...
00:46:34I just...
00:46:36I don't want to spend my whole life wondering if I could have made it.
00:46:40If I had just kept trying.
00:46:44I don't think dreams are supposed to be easy.
00:46:49They're supposed to be worth it.
00:47:00Hey.
00:47:02Here you go.
00:47:03Oh.
00:47:04Thanks.
00:47:11We should probably try to get some sleep, huh?
00:47:14Yeah.
00:47:15I'm not quite tired.
00:47:16I'm going to read for a bit.
00:47:17But sweet dreams.
00:47:21What?
00:47:23Oh, it's just...
00:47:26I don't dream.
00:47:28Everyone dreams.
00:47:29Well, if I do, I don't remember them.
00:47:33Ever?
00:47:34No.
00:47:35That explains a lot.
00:47:38What do you mean?
00:47:39Nothing.
00:47:41Good night.
00:47:42Good night, Grace.
00:47:53She could be anywhere.
00:47:55We're never going to catch her now.
00:47:58How am I going to face the Dream Council?
00:48:01I've been waiting my whole life to do this job.
00:48:03My father was a Dream Weaver.
00:48:04My father's father.
00:48:05I'm a legacy.
00:48:06I've been reluctant to suggest it.
00:48:09But we're going to have to go to Plan B.
00:48:11What's Plan B?
00:48:13Right here.
00:48:16These used to be on every corner.
00:48:28Oh.
00:48:37You've got Fred.
00:48:38It's Harvey.
00:48:40Harvey.
00:48:41Where are you?
00:48:43I thought we were grabbing lunch today.
00:48:44I've been detained.
00:48:47Well, you missed a great lasagna.
00:48:49I need you to get some memories for me.
00:48:51Sure.
00:48:52I was heading over to the resource desk anyway.
00:48:53What's the name?
00:48:54Grace McMahon, ID number Kilo Alpha Lima 9865-5453-5544.
00:49:04I need the last 24 hours.
00:49:06Got it.
00:49:07I'll swing by your desk.
00:49:08It's not going to my desk, Fred.
00:49:11Where's it going?
00:49:12Chicago.
00:49:17I must have misheard you.
00:49:19I thought you said Chicago.
00:49:20I did.
00:49:25What are you doing down there?
00:49:28I'm dealing with a Code Blue.
00:49:31Rogue Nightmare?
00:49:32Unauthorized Dream Inhabitant.
00:49:34What?
00:49:35Fred, are you still with me?
00:49:38You lost her.
00:49:39That's why you need the memories, to find out where she's been.
00:49:41Stay with me, Fred.
00:49:43Do you know how many rules this is breaking?
00:49:46I wouldn't ask if it wasn't important.
00:49:50All right.
00:49:52Give me an hour.
00:49:55Okay.
00:50:10Well, we've got six hours to kill before our connecting train.
00:50:13Oh, six hours.
00:50:15What do you want to do?
00:50:24Hmm.
00:50:29Pick a hand.
00:50:31One of the best parts about traveling is checking out all the obscure tourist attractions.
00:50:35Like the world's largest ball of yarn?
00:50:38If we're lucky.
00:50:40Come on, pick.
00:50:43Left.
00:50:46So, where are we going?
00:50:55Best part of traveling, huh?
00:50:57Yeah, maybe we should get lunch.
00:50:59Yeah, let's do that.
00:51:24M.
00:51:26McMahon.
00:51:27McMahon.
00:51:39Can I help you, Fred?
00:51:41Lisa on the first floor mentioned needing a tape.
00:51:45Why didn't she put in a request?
00:51:49I don't know how stretched thin you are, but I offered to grab it.
00:51:55Whose memories do you need?
00:51:59Hmm.
00:52:00Madonna.
00:52:05Madonna who?
00:52:07She doesn't have a last name.
00:52:12Just Madonna.
00:52:15Like international pop star Madonna?
00:52:20Mm-hmm.
00:52:25Are you hiding something?
00:52:29Nope.
00:52:55Yeah, maybe we should get lunch.
00:52:57Yeah.
00:52:58They're in Montana.
00:52:59Hi, folks.
00:53:00What can I help you with?
00:53:01You can't, thank you.
00:53:02Electronics, sports memorabilia.
00:53:04Now, you look like a man that appreciates a nice watch.
00:53:06I'm not really in the...
00:53:07Oh, my.
00:53:08Mm-hmm.
00:53:09Try it on.
00:53:10Give her a spin.
00:53:11That's genuine Swiss technology, by the way.
00:53:12It's rather sporty as well.
00:53:14Oh, very sporty.
00:53:15Now, can I wind this myself?
00:53:17Oh, yeah, definitely.
00:53:18Definitely you can.
00:53:19Is it the greatest giant sculpture of history?
00:53:23I mean, I've seen a couple.
00:53:27Can I interest you in a kayak?
00:53:28Just got it in.
00:53:30Sure.
00:53:31What's a kayak?
00:53:33Do you believe in fate?
00:53:35Like there's just certain things in life that are inevitable?
00:53:40I'd like to decide my own future.
00:53:44I'm glad you walked into that bar last night.
00:53:49I'm glad you mistook me for your friend.
00:53:52And that we both wound up at that diner.
00:53:56I'm glad that the waitress talked us into going to the street fair.
00:54:00You beat me at ring toss.
00:54:06I'm glad you're here with me now.
00:54:12I don't know how to explain it.
00:54:15It's like...
00:54:17Like...
00:54:19If we never met...
00:54:22If our paths never crossed...
00:54:25A part of you would always be looking for me.
00:54:29Yeah.
00:54:31Me too.
00:54:34That's great.
00:54:36Can I use that?
00:54:39It's all yours.
00:54:46If we never met...
00:54:48If our paths never crossed...
00:54:54You know, I realized I've never actually heard you play.
00:54:58And I came when you were finishing your set.
00:55:00Well, um...
00:55:02There's this song I've been working on.
00:55:04And, uh...
00:55:06I don't know, I can't quite figure it out yet.
00:55:10I'd love to hear it.
00:55:12Yeah?
00:55:13Yeah.
00:55:15Alright, well, it's not finished, so...
00:55:18Be nice.
00:55:49And then this is the part I'm kind of stuck on.
00:55:54I don't know, I'm sort of thinking...
00:55:56It goes...
00:56:08What if it's...
00:56:10If we never met...
00:56:13If we never met...
00:56:15If we never met...
00:56:18If our paths never crossed...
00:56:21A part of me would always be looking for you.
00:56:24A part of me would always be...
00:56:26Hi!
00:56:27Oh, thank you!
00:56:31That's so sweet.
00:56:33And you said there was no money in this.
00:56:37Sounds amazing.
00:56:40You should finish it.
00:56:42Sounds good.
00:56:44Buy you an ice cream?
00:56:46Look, there's something I need to tell you.
00:56:48And I, uh...
00:56:50I'm not really sure how to say this.
00:56:52Um...
00:56:55There's a reason I thought I knew you at the bar.
00:56:58And, um...
00:57:01The thing is, I know how this is gonna sound.
00:57:03It's just...
00:57:05Oh, ah!
00:57:06Oh!
00:57:08Come on!
00:57:09That came out of nowhere!
00:57:16I'm really enjoying this.
00:57:18Do you think it's still any good?
00:57:20No.
00:57:21No?
00:57:39No.
00:58:04It stopped.
00:58:07That was fast.
00:58:10Wow.
00:58:13Buy you another ice cream?
00:58:15Sure.
00:58:28Okay, how about I'll pick yours and you pick mine?
00:58:35Deal.
00:58:37All right.
00:58:38Be nice.
00:58:39I'll try.
00:58:55Oh, look at you.
00:58:57Really brings out your eyes.
00:59:18Hey.
00:59:22I got you something.
00:59:30Where words fail, music speaks.
00:59:34When I saw it, I thought of you.
00:59:38I love it.
00:59:42You're welcome.
00:59:46Oh, hey.
00:59:48Um...
00:59:49What was it you wanted to tell me earlier?
00:59:52Before the rain.
00:59:53It sounded important.
00:59:56You know...
00:59:58I don't remember.
01:00:04What if...
01:00:06What if we didn't find them?
01:00:08Don't worry.
01:00:09She can't dodge us forever.
01:00:10No, I mean...
01:00:11What if we let her keep the memories?
01:00:13That's not an option.
01:00:15But...
01:00:16No, we're running out of time.
01:00:18We have to finish this.
01:00:21I need you to focus.
01:00:23Okay.
01:00:26I will.
01:00:34Okay.
01:00:45So...
01:00:46So?
01:00:48I, um...
01:00:51I want to take you to dinner.
01:00:53Yeah.
01:00:54I'm thinking table.
01:00:55Chairs.
01:00:57Cutlery.
01:00:59Indoors.
01:01:00Wow.
01:01:01Tables and chairs.
01:01:02I see.
01:01:04There's this really cute place downtown called Fauna.
01:01:08How about tonight?
01:01:10I'd love to.
01:01:11Yeah?
01:01:12Yeah.
01:01:13Cool.
01:01:14How about 8 o'clock?
01:01:16I'll be there.
01:01:26Bye.
01:01:27Bye.
01:01:28Okay, yeah, bye.
01:01:29Bye.
01:01:32Bye.
01:01:46Oh, there she is.
01:01:48Hi, Nana.
01:01:49Oh, sweetheart.
01:01:50I miss you.
01:01:51Me too.
01:01:52Oh, look at you.
01:01:53Look at you.
01:01:54You look fabulous.
01:01:56Come on in.
01:01:58The world's largest spider sculpture?
01:02:01I know it sounds crazy, but it was so cool.
01:02:04And then we went to this beautiful park, and then he sang me this song, and we got caught in a downpour and had to run for cover.
01:02:10It was the best.
01:02:12Oh, you've been so busy.
01:02:14Tell me, have you heard back from any of those publishers?
01:02:19Um...
01:02:21They all passed on my book.
01:02:24Oh.
01:02:25Sorry to hear that.
01:02:28Do you think I'm wasting my time?
01:02:29Mm-mm.
01:02:30The pursuit of a dream is never a waste of time.
01:02:33Well, Becky thinks so.
01:02:35Well, she's just trying to protect you.
01:02:38But if all you've ever gotten is rejection, don't you eventually have to throw in the towel?
01:02:43Grace, what is it that you want to do?
01:02:46I want to write.
01:02:54The publisher said that my world is small.
01:02:59And, you know what?
01:03:02Maybe they're right.
01:03:03You know, what do I really have to say?
01:03:05Well, sounds to me that you have had quite an adventure over the last two days.
01:03:11Well, I have sort of started working on a new story, but it's rough.
01:03:17You know, I'm not really sure if it's anything yet.
01:03:19Grab your stuff.
01:03:21There is only one way to find out.
01:03:25Come with me.
01:03:26Okay.
01:03:29I will make us some lunch, and when you have something to share, we'll read it together.
01:03:36Oh, there are extra pencils in the left drawer.
01:03:59We'll start you off in bookkeeping until you get caught up in operations.
01:04:03I can't tell you how glad I am to have you home, Mike.
01:04:05Yeah.
01:04:07It's good, steady work. And you'll have lots of time for your hobby.
01:04:11It's not a hobby, Dad.
01:04:13Look, I know this isn't how you pictured your life, but you could build a career here.
01:04:21Ten years, you're running the place.
01:04:25It's a smart play.
01:04:29Okay.
01:04:47Grace? I need to talk to you.
01:04:50I am not going to forget him, and you can't make me.
01:04:53I know. I'm here to help you. Harvey will be right behind me. We need to go before he gets here.
01:04:57I'm supposed to meet Michael.
01:04:58If we stay, it won't matter.
01:05:04Please?
01:05:16Where are we going?
01:05:17I haven't really thought that far ahead.
01:05:19Well, then why are we doing this? I thought you wanted me to forget.
01:05:23You know, you were my first ever dream.
01:05:26Really?
01:05:28They give you ten assignments when you start. I was really nervous.
01:05:33But then I started watching your memories and felt like I knew you.
01:05:40And then inspiration just hit me. I found this old memory of your driver's test.
01:05:44Wait, the driver's test dream? That was you?
01:05:46Yeah.
01:05:48I loved that dream.
01:05:49That was a great dream. I wrote 13 pages of a story after that dream.
01:05:52See, that's what every dream weaver hopes for.
01:05:54That their work helps the dreamer figure something out, make a breakthrough.
01:06:00We build a dream, you live it.
01:06:02If we build a great dream, we make a real difference in your life.
01:06:09Being down here, it just made me realize how little I really know about the world, people, and the future.
01:06:16How little I really know about the world, people.
01:06:19Like, what does it feel like to swim in the ocean, fall in love?
01:06:23How often are you supposed to exfoliate?
01:06:25Twice a week, I think.
01:06:27See? I never would have guessed.
01:06:32Everything I know about this world, I know through other people's memories.
01:06:38Your memories.
01:06:41But since I've been down here, I felt rain and the breeze on my face.
01:06:46I pet a cat.
01:06:48That's pretty awesome, right?
01:06:50Best.
01:06:52Look, Allura, I think you are doing an amazing job.
01:06:57I mean, all of my dreams lately have been incredible.
01:07:02Really? You're not just saying that.
01:07:04Oh, yeah. I mean, the dream the other night when I was wearing the spring formal dress?
01:07:09Great pull.
01:07:10I love that dress.
01:07:12Me too.
01:07:13Allura, I'm really grateful for you.
01:07:19And I am so, so glad that you are my dream weaver.
01:07:34I love you.
01:08:05They said this was lemon meringue.
01:08:09You really don't have pie in dreamland?
01:08:11No. We do have some things from down here.
01:08:15But it's a whole process. You gotta submit a request to the council.
01:08:19It's a lot of paperwork.
01:08:21Well, if things can change in dreamland, maybe you can change the rule about meeting someone in a dream.
01:08:27Maybe. Seems like a bigger ask than pie.
01:08:31Yeah.
01:08:34I'm sorry, Grace. I never meant for any of this to happen.
01:08:38You don't need to apologize.
01:08:39Of course I do. This is all my fault.
01:08:42No. These have been the best two days of my life. I mean it.
01:08:48I've been sort of lost, sleepwalking through my days, and this sort of forced me to take some real chances.
01:08:57Okay.
01:08:58What's gonna happen to you?
01:09:00I don't know. Probably sanctioned. Definitely fired.
01:09:06I'll be okay. Maybe I'll get a job at the Department of Weather.
01:09:10There's a Department of Weather?
01:09:11Yeah.
01:09:12What's it do?
01:09:13The weather.
01:09:14Right.
01:09:16Ladies.
01:09:18Harvey. Harvey!
01:09:21Harvey, we can't take her memories.
01:09:23I've told you. It's not our decision to make.
01:09:26I'll explain everything to the council. I'll take all the blame.
01:09:29There is an order to things. A providence. It is not our place to interfere.
01:09:34We already have.
01:09:36We're not just talking about one life. We're talking thousands of fates thrown off course.
01:09:42Every little change causes a ripple effect.
01:09:46What do you mean?
01:09:47Every person has their own trajectory. A destiny.
01:09:52Your friend Michael, for example, is meant to go on to a very successful music career.
01:09:58One that brings his life meaning and fulfillment.
01:10:03Are you saying that if I keep my memories of him, that doesn't happen?
01:10:11Fate is not a choice.
01:10:14That doesn't happen?
01:10:16Fate is a delicate thing, Grace.
01:10:19As I've tried to explain, if you alter the course of things, it is unclear if they will ever come to be.
01:10:27Harvey, please.
01:10:38Okay. I agree.
01:10:42Grace, no.
01:10:45Michael was born to play music. It's what makes him happy. I can't ruin that.
01:10:51But he lives here, Grace. The chances you'd ever cross paths again are almost zero.
01:11:00If you do this, you'll never see him again.
01:11:07I know. It's okay. This is my choice.
01:11:14Thank you for all the help.
01:11:35What do I have to do?
01:11:37Just close your eyes.
01:11:48Grace.
01:11:50Grace.
01:11:51Hey! Hey! Hey.
01:11:55Oh, I thought I missed you. Sorry I'm late.
01:11:59I tried to call you, but then I realized I didn't have your number.
01:12:03Um, I'm sorry. I'm sorry I'm late.
01:12:07It's okay.
01:12:09It's okay.
01:12:11It's okay.
01:12:12I tried to call you, but then I realized I didn't have your number.
01:12:15Um, I'm sorry. Do I know you? One sec.
01:12:20What do you mean?
01:12:22I think you might have me confused with someone else.
01:12:25Did I? Did I do something?
01:12:28Look, I'm really sorry. I've got a flight to catch, but I hope you find who you're looking for.
01:12:35Hey there. I'm headed to the airport.
01:12:38Grace.
01:12:43Grace.
01:12:45What just happened?
01:12:51Michael?
01:12:54I'm so sorry. I think I can shed some light on that.
01:13:02If you come with me, I can explain everything.
01:13:13How you doing, kiddo?
01:13:19It's not fair. You were so happy.
01:13:25They'll go back to their lives. Neither will know they've lost anything.
01:13:30I'll know.
01:13:32It might not seem like it, but we did the right thing.
01:13:37What is meant to be will always be.
01:13:40What is meant to be will always be.
01:14:10I'm sorry. What a nightmare. My flight was delayed for six hours in Portland.
01:14:15I still can't believe you went to Portland on a whim. No notice.
01:14:18Well, I texted you.
01:14:20From the train?
01:14:22Well, you were the one that told me to get out of my comfort zone, so if you really think about it, I was just taking your advice.
01:14:27Nice try.
01:14:29Okay, look, I'm sorry I didn't text you sooner, but it was so inspiring. And I wrote this story that I'm really proud of.
01:14:35Look, I know you think this is a mistake, but writing is what I was meant to do. I owe it to myself to try.
01:14:43So, does that mean back to temping?
01:14:47For now.
01:14:49You sure?
01:14:51I am.
01:14:53Let's go get some pizza. You can tell me all about your story.
01:14:56No olives.
01:14:58No olives.
01:15:00By the way, whatever happened to your dream man?
01:15:02Who?
01:15:03Who?
01:15:04For your first review, the council has evaluated your work performance, including quality control and dream output.
01:15:34And compliance with all required regulations.
01:15:38We've also taken into consideration assessments from your superiors.
01:15:45You have achieved strong marks across the board. We'll be increasing your caseload to 30 assignments.
01:15:54You don't seem pleased with your review.
01:15:58No. I mean, yes. Yes, I am.
01:16:02Congratulations, Elora.
01:16:04You have a bright future ahead of you at Dream Central.
01:16:16Frances Imelian Steele, how can I help you?
01:16:20Of course. One moment while I connect you.
01:16:24Eddie?
01:16:25Grace?
01:16:32Hello?
01:16:33The New Yorker loves your story. Loves it! They want it for their October issue.
01:16:38I mean, it's great stuff. Dream police, a honky musician.
01:16:43Where do you come up with this stuff?
01:16:45Honestly, I don't know.
01:16:49Well, I've set up some meetings for you. This is just the beginning. We'll definitely be in touch.
01:17:00I'm sorry. I'm so sorry.
01:17:03It's okay.
01:17:34Michael and Grace are in the same place?
01:17:53I need Grace McMahon's memories from last night. Please? It's important.
01:18:03Okay.
01:18:20To my sister, the author.
01:18:23It's just one short story.
01:18:25That's how it all starts.
01:18:27I'm proud of you.
01:18:29Thanks.
01:18:31Hey, this is a celebration. What's with the look?
01:18:35I know. I'm happy. I am. You know, this is everything I've ever wanted. I just...
01:18:42I don't know. I can't shake the feeling that there's something missing.
01:18:49I'm Michael Roy. How's everyone else doing?
01:18:52Yeah, yeah. Good to hear. Good to hear.
01:18:57This is a new one I've been working on.

01:19:30Grace, have faith.
01:19:32Deaf, hearing her voice, she said,
01:19:34Have grace, have faith.
01:19:37If we never met,
01:19:39If our paths never crossed,
01:19:42Part of me would always be looking for you.
01:19:45Part of you would always be looking.
01:19:48If we never met,
01:19:50If our story got lost,
01:19:52Part of me would always be looking for you.
01:19:55Part of you would always be looking.
01:19:58Part of me
01:20:00is a part of you.
01:20:09Life is a delicate, delicate thing.
