2:45 p.m.
(Annie is in downtown and is walking down the street. A man passes by her.)
Man: Afternoon, Annie.
Annie: Afternoon, Pete! (Pete keeps on walking as does she. She gets to the grocery store.) Bill, are you here?
(A man in his late forties, short brown hair, green eyes, wearing a uniform goes over to her.)
Bill: Ah, Annie! Good afternoon! What brings you here?
Annie: (She rolls her eyes.) My dad does, actually. He's coming home in four days. Damn, I'm not looking forward to this...
Bill: Have you heard from Doctor Brown?
Annie: (She sighs.) No, not yet.
Bill: Well, you see him again, in time.
Annie: (She thinks.) You had to mention time? (She speaks.) Yeah, you're right.
Bill: So, what can I get you? A gallon of milk, a dozen of eggs, and some flour?
Annie: (She smiles.) Oh, Bill. You know me so well.
(Meanwhile, with Marty...)
Dave: You and Annie are finally dating?
Linda: It's about time!
Marty: (He thinks.) You had to mention time? (He speaks.) Yeah, it was truly amazing. The first time I kissed her, it was like lightning hit me. (He thinks.) Ah, man. Why did I have to go and say that?
Lorraine: Well, I think that's great!
George: (He notices Marty is acting a little strange.) Marty, are you okay? You're acting so strange lately….
Marty: (He thinks again.) If only you knew, dad. If only you knew. (He speaks.) Uh, yeah. I'm okay, dad. It's been a long five days without Doc to talk too...
Dave: Well, he's happy right? Why mess with that?
Marty: (He sighs.) I guess you're right, Dave. Still, I do miss him and I wish he was here for Annie especially since her father is coming home in four days. (He thinks.) The first November 5th without Doc. It sure is going to be strange...
