4:29 PM PST
As Doc was piloting the DeLorean, the DeLorean had almost collided with a taxi. Marty and Calvin both screamed.
'What the hell was that?' asked Marty, perturbed.
'Taxi-cab,' answered Doc.
'What do you mean a taxi-cab?' fumed Marty. 'I thought we were flying.'
'Precisely,' Doc replied.
'All right, Doc, what's going on, huh?' Marty asked, with annoyance. 'Where are we? When are we?'
Doc lifted up his futuristic glasses to look at the time display, and replied, 'We are descending towards Hill Valley, California, at 4:29 PM, on Wednesday, October 21, 2015.'
'2015? You mean we're in the future?' asked Marty, astonished.
'Future?' asked Calvin, confused. 'All right, what are you guys talking about? How can we possibly be in the future?'
'Uh, Calvin, um,' stammered Marty. 'I don't know how to tell you this, but - you're in a time machine!'
'And this is the year 2015?' asked Calvin, stunned.
'October 21, 2015,' replied Doc.
'Doc, you really invented a time machine?' asked Calvin, stunned. 'Hey, Doc, Marty was acting really strange this morning, like he didn't even remember me. Does this time machine have something to do with it?'
'Please, we don't have time for this right now,' insisted Doc. 'I promise that your questions will be answered later.'
Just then, something else was troubling Calvin, 'You mean to say that you showed Marty the time machine - before showing it to me? Why couldn't you have shown it to both of us together? Now I feel betrayed - like you like Marty better than me!'
'No, Calvin,' protested Doc, pleadingly, 'it's not like that at all! I promise! I'll explain to you later. Right now, we have other business to take care of.'
'Fine, whatever,' grumbled Calvin. He could not think any sane reason why Doc would invite Marty and not him to show off a project as major as a time machine. Still, he was not one to become easily angered - so he decided to swallow his pride, and hope that Doc would explain to him why later.
'Here's our exit,' Doc informed the twins.
The twins have noticed that a sign read 'Phoenix : Boston : London' - and underneath it said, 'Local traffic: Hill Valley exit next right.' After Doc piloted the DeLorean away from the skyway, the twins noticed another sign that read 'Welcome to Hill Valley. Goldie Wilson II Mayor. A Nice Place To Live. Please fly safely. Ejection Seats Save Lives'. Then Doc finally landed the DeLorean into an alleyway.
Doc then opened the DeLorean doors and said, 'Okay, boys, first you gotta get out and change clothes.'
'Right now?' asked Marty. 'It's pouring rain.'
Doc looked at his watch, then said, 'Wait five more seconds.' After the rain stopped in exactly five seconds, Doc said, 'Right on the tick. Amazing. Absolutely amazing. Too bad the post office isn't as efficient as the weather service.'
After the trio had left the DeLorean, Doc began to pull a rubber mask off his face.
'Excuse the disguise, boys,' said Doc, 'but I was afraid you guys wouldn't recognize me. I went to a rejuvenation clinic and got a whole natural overhaul. They took out some wrinkles, did a hair repair, changed the blood - added a good thirty or forty years to my life. They also replaced my spleen and colon. What do you think?'
'You look great, Doc,' Marty replied, amazed.
'Yeah, I agree,' chimed in Calvin.
'The future - unbelievable,' muttered Marty. 'I gotta check this out, Doc.'
'Yeah, the future is, like, totally awesome,' Calvin agreed.
'All in good time, boys,' insisted Doc. 'We're on a tight schedule here.'
'Tell me about my future,' pleaded Marty. 'I mean, I know I make it big, but what do I become, like a rich rock star or something?'
'Do I become a professional football player?' added Calvin. 'Am I a Los Angeles Laker?'
'Please, boys,' Doc said, firmly. 'No one should know too much about their own destiny.'
'Right, right,' mumbled Marty, 'I am rich though, right?'
'Yeah, Doc,' chimed in Calvin, 'you said that we turned out fine - that it was our kids that were in trouble.'
'Boys, please, take off your shirts,' instructed Doc. Then, after Marty and Calvin both complied, Doc added, 'Put on these jackets and shoes.'
Then Doc went into the car to grab a futuristic pair of binoculars, which looked a bit like a very thin camera.
'We've got a mission to accomplish!' proclaimed Doc.
Doc then ran down to the end of the alleyway, and used the gadget to watch a pair of boys who looked just like Marty and Calvin - they were Marty McFly Junior and Calvin McFly Junior - walking into a futuristic telephone booth.
'Uh-huh,' muttered Doc. 'Precisely on schedule.'
oooooooooo
Marty and Calvin were putting on the shoes and jackets that Doc had given to them. Marty chose the red jacket and shoes - while Calvin put on the blue jacket and shoes.
'Power laces! All right!' shouted Marty, awed.
'Why can't we have things like that in 1985?' Calvin put in.
'This thing doesn't fit,' commented Marty, after putting his jacket on.
Doc came running up to the twins, and pushed a flashing little button on Marty's jacket, which was beeping.
'Size adjusting, fit.' remarked a computerized voice inside the jacket.
Then Doc repeated the process with Calvin. The computerized voice in Calvin's jacket said the same thing.
'Pull out your pants pockets,' instructed Doc. 'All kids in the future wear their pants inside out.'
Marty and Doc both complied. Doc then reached into his bag, and he pulled out two colourful caps.
'Put on these caps,' said Doc, as he put the caps onto the heads of Marty and Calvin. 'Perfect! You guys are the splitting image of your future sons.'
'What?' asked Marty.
'So what are you saying, Doc?' Calvin asked. 'We each have a son at around the same time - and they look just like each other, and like us?'
'That's a little uncanny!' Marty remarked.
'Uncanny, but possible - and true,' replied Doc. 'In exactly 2 minutes, you boys go around the corner into the Cafe 80's.'
'Cafe 80s?' asked Marty, astonished. It was hard for Marty to believe that, sometime in the future, the '80s would be considered 'retro'. I guess it's inevitable, though, thought Marty, with a sigh.
'It's one of those nostalgia places, but not done very well. Go in and order a Pepsi,' Doc told the twins. Then, after pulling two fifty dollar bills from his pocket, Doc added, 'Here's a fifty for each of you - and wait for a guy named Griff.'
'Right, Griff,' muttered Marty.
'Right,' replied Doc. 'Griff's going to ask you guys about tonight. Are you in or out? Tell him you are out! Whatever he says, whatever happens, say no, you're not interested.'
'Okay,' Marty and Calvin replied, simultaneously.
'Then leave, come back here and wait for me. Don't talk to anyone, don't touch anything, don't do anything, don't interact with anyone - and try not to look at anything.'
'I don't get it,' Marty said, confused. 'I, I thought you said this had something to do with our kids.'
Doc grabbed a newspaper from his bag and said, 'Look what happens to your sons!'
Marty and Calvin looked at the paper, which was the Hill Valley Edition of USA Today. The headline read 'Look-Alike Cousins Jailed' - and the sub-headline read 'Martin McFly Junior And Calvin McFly Junior Arrested For Theft'.
'Our sons?' asked Marty, amazed. 'Our oldest sons, I presume - as they're both Junior.' After Marty looked at the picture, he gasped, 'God, they look just like us!' Then, reading from the newspaper, Marty continued, 'Within two hours of their arrest, Martin McFly Junior and Calvin McFly Junior were tried, convicted and sentenced to fifteen years in the State Penitentiary.'
'Within two hours?' Calvin asked, shocked.
'The justice system works swiftly in the future,' shouted Doc, 'now that they've abolished all lawyers.'
'Oh, this is heavy!' mumbled Marty.
'Oh, it gets worse!' Doc explained. 'Marty, next week your daughter attempts to break them out of jail - and she gets sent up for 20 years!'
'Wha - my daughter?' Marty asks, shocked. 'Wait a minute, I have a daughter?'
'You see, this one event starts a chain reaction that completely destroys your entire family.'
'No!' cried out Marty and Calvin, simultaneously.
'Hey, Doc, this date...' Marty started to say. 'Wait, this is tomorrow's newspaper!'
'Precisely!' replied Doc. 'I already went further ahead into time to see what else happens. I backtracked everything to this one event, that's why we're here today - to prevent this incident from ever happening.'
Just then, Doc's watch beeped. 'Damn, I'm late!' groaned Doc.
'Wait a minute, where are you going now?' asked Marty.
'To intercept your sons, you guys are taking their places. Round the corner at the Cafe 80's, guy named Griff, just say no!'
As Marty and Calvin walked off to start their mission, Doc called out, 'Oh, boys, be careful around that Griff character.' Doc put his finger up to his head, and made a 'he's loopy' sign as he continued, 'He's got a few short circuits in his bionic implants.'
As the twins walked down the alleyway towards Courthouse Square, they saw posters stating 'Re-elect Mayor Wilson Jr', among other things.
'The future!' Marty and Calvin exclaimed, simultaneously.
