Bleecker Street, 2025

STRANGE
I wanted to tell someone—
Out in the multiverse I admitted to Christine that I love her.
Even though I know we'll never be together again.

WONG
That's big, my friend
It takes courage to own feelings that you know you cannot act on
And accept that the universe is not yours to control

STRANGE
Thank you
It felt right

WONG
If you don't mind my asking
Were there any versions of the two of you that were together?

STRANGE
No
Not that I found

WONG
Really?
Not even one?

STRANGE

No

WONG
Damn
Single in every universe, eh?

STRANGE
You don't have to rub it in, Wong.
