Author's Note: Final chapter. Please enjoy, read and review.
We then
CUT TO:
545. EXT. FIELD – NOON.
Marty Sr and Marty are walking along a small path. Marty is sweating hard – it's obvious they've had a long walk.
MARTY
(breathing heavily)
Gramps?
MARTY SR
Yeah?
MARTY
Are… we… gonna… stop?
Marty Sr stops and stares at him.
MARTY SR
(sternly)
No.
He goes on.
Marty SIGHS, and goes on as well.
546. EXT. HILLDALE FIELD – AFTERNOON.
Yes it's the future site of the HILLDALE HOUSING DEPARTMENT – but it is not recognisable, except for a path going past.
Marty Sr and Marty are walking there, still uneasily, and pass a sign. It says: EASTWOOD RAVINE – 0.6 MILES. It's pointed in the north.
Marty Sr suddenly STOPS DEAD IN HIS TRACKS.
MARTY
What's the matter?
(sarcastically)
Finally becoming tired?
Marty Sr ignores his grandson's comment.
MARTY SR
Marty… take a look at that!
He points to the right.
547. MARTY'S POV OF…
A house, standing there about fifty yards away from where the duo are standing!
548. THE MARTY'S.
Marty Sr screams excitedly!
MARTY SR
We found it! I don't know how but we found it! YAAH!
He runs up to it as FAST AS HIS FEET CAN CARRY HIM!
Marty SIGHS, then RUNS AFTER HIS GRANDPA, IN THE SAME SPEED!
549. EXT. HOUSE.
Marty Sr KNOCKS ON THE DOOR hastily.
MARTY SR
Doc, Doc! DOC!
Footsteps are heard, just as Marty reaches Marty Sr and tries to calm him down.
The footsteps come closer…
The DOORKNOB is twisted…
The door starts screeching open…
We watch on as Marty Sr looks in open-mouthed disbelief at
550. HIS POV OF
105-year-old OLD DOC BROWN opening the door! Now over 100 years old, he still looks pretty fresh and energetic. He's got some more wrinkles, his hair is even whiter and he's wearing a hat, but in overall he still looks the same.
OLD DOC
Who's here-
He stops dead in his tracks as he sees and recognizes Marty Sr, and SCREAMS!
OLD DOC
Argh! ARGH!
Marty Sr goes over to Doc.
MARTY SR
Relax, Doc, it's me! Marty!
OLD DOC
NOO! It can't be you! You're in the future! You cannot be here!
MARTY SR
I am Doc. I built a time machine and came back… from the future.
Doc looks like he's about to lose his consciousness as he stares into the sky and falls back.
Marty Sr CATCHES him just in time.
MARTY SR
No, don't you faint on me now!
Doc RELAXES a bit, and SMIRKS.
DOC
Don't you think I got the right to faint? It's not everyday I see somebody from…
MARTY SR
2045.
DOC
(contin'd)
…2045 appearing on my doorstep.
(realises)
2045?
MARTY SR
Yeah, it's a long story Doc.
DOC
(smirks)
In that case, I think you'd better come in.
551. INT. LIVING ROOM.
DOC and MARTY SR are conversing excitedly about the past years of their lives.
MARTY is sitting bored next to them.
CLARA, now 70, is sweeping the floor.
JULES, 39, is making some calculations.
MARTY SR
… and then we headed here to find you, and the rest you already know.
CLARA
Interesting, isn't it Emmett?
DOC
It sure is.
(eyes glowing)
Now where was the DeLorean you were talking about?
552. EXT. DELOREAN'S CRASH SITE – FUTURE LONE PINE FARM – EVENING.
MARTY SR and MARTY are shining flashlights at the remains of the DELOREAN. DOC is pacing around wildly.
DOC
I can't believe you simply left the time vehicle here for two days… and about twelve hours. It easily could've been stolen.
MARTY
But nobody could do something with it, right? It's totally wrecked.
DOC
The mere point of somebody unable to understand the consequences of time travel to find out about time travel is disastrous. They might steal the train.
(a beat)
Granted, there's not much they could really do with it at the moment, but still…
The last part catches Marty Sr's attention.
MARTY SR
What? What happened to the train? It's our only way of getting home now the DeLorean is wrecked here!
DOC
The engine busted a few weeks ago. I tried to repair it with 1880s components, but it failed to work. Therefore I set up a small model to push it up from a hill.
MARTY SR
I thought there weren't any hills with smooth surfaces next to it in Hill Valley? You said yourself you'd 'never find a smooth enough surface' back in 1885.
DOC
There aren't. Not here, at least, but there are close to Sacramento. It's two miles north of the town, sixty-eight miles south from Hill Valley. There's a huge mountain with a smooth surface down below. It was just too far out of range for us in Hill Valley 1885. Besides, I didn't know about it back then.
MARTY SR
But if it's sixty-eight miles away, how are we going to get there?
Doc looks at him with that crazy glint in his eyes.
CUT TO:
553. EXT. DOC BROWN'S AIRPLANE – DAY.
Doc is flying in a small plane, which has ELB written on the side. Marty is behind him, while Marty Sr is all behind (there are three seats).
MARTY
Yahoo! Doc, this is way cool!
MARTY SR
(trying hard to shout over the wind)
Yeah! Too bad this thing won't go over fifty with the train attached to it!
DOC
Care for a looping?
MARTY SR
You bet!
The entire plane starts moving a little FASTER, then, suddenly, it makes a LOOPING in the air!
MARTY yells EXCITEDLY!
Doc SMIRKS AT HIM.
554. INT. LABORATORY – DAY.
MARTY and MARTY SR are working on the huge steam-powered train. Doc comes over to them. (NOTE: The calendar in the background says it's Wednesday, November 11th 1925. The many clocks in the room tell us that it's 2:15PM.
DOC
I made the necessary modifications, and I think it should fit.
The duo follow Doc, to a MODEL of a HILL and a SPUR going off it. The hill is really sharp-looking, and half-way the hill is a sign saying 'hover on'. All together, it's constructed with a lot of detail, including a MODEL STEAM TRAIN, which even has ELB written on the side. As Marty looks closer to the train, he sees TOY-DOC hanging onto it!
MARTY
(to himself)
Heavy.
Doc smiles proudly.
DOC
As you can see, the hill is right here – and here's the train. As we get to this point…
(points at 'hover-on sign)
We'll leave the hill. If my calculations are correct, that will happen at approximately seventy miles per hour.
MARTY gulps.
MARTY
Seventy.
DOC
Correct. The wind force should be able to give the train the extra power, as well as the speed already gained, and with help of this…
Doc then pulls out the PRESTO-LOGS from Part III!
DOC
The engine should be able to kick on and we're going back to the future. Or, more correct, to your present, and my future.
Marty Sr catches what Doc says.
MARTY SR
Wait a sec, Doc… you telling me you're going back with us?
DOC
Precisely. It should be no more than fitting that I should return where I belong, seeing as I am supposed to be in 2025 right now. Seeing as I don't want to screw up your present by living those years from two thousand and twenty-five to two thousand and forty-five, I figured that I could move back with you… after all, better twenty years out of synch, then a hundred.
(a beat)
Don't you all agree?
Marty Sr just stares at him.
DOC
(concerned)
Don't you?
Marty Sr then reaches out and HUGS DOC TIGHTLY!
MARTY SR
Doc, this is the most wonderful thing I've ever heard!
DOC
(blushes)
Thanks.
Marty has a question.
MARTY
Say, Doc… when are we leaving?
DOC
Tomorrow night. I'll bring the train over there tomorrow morning, so we can leave right after we'll rescue my future granddaughter, this Sarah girlfriend of yours.
MARTY
(annoyed)
How many times do I have to say that it's not my girlfriend?
DOC
(smiling)
Sorry.
MARTY SR
Say, Doc – why don't we wait a day? We could leave on Friday, too. It'll be dangerous to leave at night.
DOC
For a few different reasons, three to be exact. 1 – Tannen might go after us, 2 – it'll be more inconspicuous, since the town might see us do it if we'd do it any earlier.
MARTY SR
And three?
DOC
Don't you think it'll be more exciting doing it at night?
He looks at Marty Sr with the same crazy glint.
The Marty's roll their eyes.
MARTY
He is insane.
DOC
Now, let's try it out. I'll simulate the flying circuits – Marty, you push the train up. Your grandfather will be able to simulate the speed, with the remote-control over there.
Marty Sr sees a MINI-REMOTE, and starts it. It gives a loud beep, then the screen lights up completely with a red '0.0'. Doc smirks.
DOC
Go!
Marty pushes the locomotive forward, and it starts rolling from the mountain!
555. EXT. REMOTE.
The speed says 20…25…30…35…40…
556. WIDER.
Marty looks at the locomotive gaining speed.
The remote says 45…50…55…60…
The locomotive is nearing the sign!
65…70!
The locomotive hits the sign, scrambling it!
Doc pulls the lever, and the train flies off from the hill, and starts dropping!
It's going 75…80…85…
Marty's hand moves the lever switch…
Flashes appear around the 'train'…
86…87…88!
A large flash appears around the toy train, then it hits around and explodes!
MARTY and Marty Sr jump back!
MARTY SR
Whew! That coulda been us! Doc, what are you trying here!
Doc points at something we haven't seen before in the train wreckage – a small SUN PANEL.
DOC
Oh yeah, I forgot to tell you, the flying circuits are kind of busted.
MARTY SR
(puzzled)
So we can't go back?
DOC
Fault! You see, these panels will react to the electricity in cables in the air… I adjusted them to be able to do that. There are lots of cables with electricity around the hill in Sacramento, and since the flying circuits run on that, they'll catch on and we will coast safely to the ground.
MARTY
Doc, we can scratch that. There isn't as much electricity here as there is in 2045… not at two miles away from Sacramento. I bet it's completely empty there.
DOC
Oh, it is! But you're just not thinking fourth-dimensionally!
(a beat)
Anyone told you that you're just like your grandpa?
MARTY sighs, and rolls his eyes.
DOC
Don't you two see? We'll arrive instantaneously at a point in time where the flying circuits are able to run. As long as we hit 88 before we hit the ground, we'll be safe. Twenty feet before the ground, to be exact. I've got a large fishing pole Jules made in the summer of '97 lying in the back of the lab, which I'll attach to the hill and give it some glowing signs. Therefore we'll be able to pinpoint the exact moment we have to have hit 88. And if my calculations are correct, we will hit it at twenty-five feet from the ground.
MARTY SR
(gulps)
Five feet from the pole that means we'll going to die.
DOC
Exactly.
MARTY SR
(under his breath, to Marty)
He really is insane.
557. INT. BLACKSMITH SHOP – EVENING.
Marty and Marty Sr are standing there, with Doc, Clara and Jules. They are all nervous, and Marty Sr is holding a piece of paper – the note Buford sent him. Judging from the clock and the calendar in the back, it's now 6:05 PM on Thursday November 12th 1925.
MARTY
Say, Doctor Brown, when are we going?
Doc turns serious.
DOC
What time did the note say again?
MARTY SR
(re-note)
November 12th, 1925, 8PM.
DOC
Okay, so you'll be there at that time.
Marty Sr looks up to him.
MARTY SR
I dunno Doc. What if Buford shoots me? He really hates me. I mean, are you sure this plan of yours is fool-proof?
DOC
I am sure. All you need to have is a little self-confidence. We all do. And, with confidence, Buford won't shoot too soon. Tannen's got something against cowards. Of course, being not a coward doesn't mean you have to get into a fight immediately. Just follow the plan we've set up.
He starts walking away.
MARTY SR
Doc?
The inventor turns around.
MARTY SR
Where are Jules and Clara going to be in this mad plan?
DOC
(ignoring the 'mad plan' comment)
Jules and Clara are both going to be heading for Sacramento and the train's current whereabouts at around 6:20. They'll be on horses, so it will take them at least three hours… I estimate they will be there at nine-thirty. We should arrive there no more than a quarter later, so we can then leave for 2045. I trust they'll have set up everything I haven't yet by then.
MARTY SR
(trying to grasp everything)
Okay.
Doc walks over to the clock. It's 6:08.
DOC
Now, why don't we get changed for the big night show? We got a mission to accomplish!
He SMIRKS.
Marty Sr ROLLS HIS EYES.
558. EXT. MANURE PILE – NIGHT.
We're at the manure pile, to be more exact, just above five MEN lying there. From the faint light of the dropping sun, we recognize DRIFF and the three GUYS from the saloon. SARAH is also there, being tied up with rope and held under gunpoint by one of the gang members, who's smirking lovingly at her. That means that there's only one person left to identify, unable to see due his hat.
PERSON (O.S)
Hey, butthead! What time is it!
The voice is familiar, the accent is, and as he lifts his hat, we recognize him – it's BUFORD 'MAD DOG' TANNEN! Now 77, he looks like Old Biff from Part II, but is still in fairly active shape, and a good gunslinger as well, even though he's not as fast as in his younger years.
DRIFF, his son, reacts and looks at his watch.
DRIFF
It's seven-fifty-nine, Pa!
BUFORD
(looking around)
Now, where's that runt?
Indeed, there's no one to be seen.
DRIFF
I dunno, Dad. I haven't seen him anywhere. I'd like to beat him up when he comes, though. He's been an annoying pest the past few months.
Buford gives him a filthy look.
BUFORD
That's my task, butthead. Your job is to watch if no one annoying is coming. We don't wanna be disturbed.
He smirks.
He then looks up – there are footsteps in a distance.
Buford exchanges looks with the others, then decides to be blunt.
BUFORD
(loudly)
Who's there? Is that you, Eastwood?
He looks at Driff's watch – 8:00.
BUFORD
(under his breath, to himself)
For his sake, it better be.
MARTY SR then steps into the light. He's wearing a hat, and a COAT. All is dark, and he's got his head pointed down. Only one foot of him can be seen, but he's standing quite stable.
MARTY SR
Right here, Tannen!
Buford SMIRKS.
BUFORD
Well, well, Mr. Eastwood. How nice to see you…
(continues sarcastically)
Sir.
Marty Sr GROWLS.
MARTY SR
Well, it's not nice to see you. It certainly isn't.
Buford snickers.
BUFORD
Men, make sure he ain't carrying a gun.
Driff's GANG go out and check on Marty. After a few moments, they back off.
GANG MEMBER 1
He's clean, Mr. Tannen.
BUFORD
Get back.
They obey to what he says. Marty Sr looks at them in disgust.
His head still is unable to be seen by the viewers, since his hat is covering it.
MARTY SR
Where's the girl, Tannen?
BUFORD
Right here.
Buford pulls up Sarah.
Sarah now sees Marty Sr, and smiles.
SARAH
Mr. Mc-Mr. Eastwood!
MARTY SR
(politely, shy)
Hi.
Buford continues to hold her.
MARTY SR
(sarcastically)
How about letting her go, Tannen?
BUFORD
Oh, she'll be free to go in just a few minutes. I just need to keep an hold on her for a short time.
He pulls out a GUN!
BUFORD
I mean, she might get a little angry when I shoot her friend, don't you think?
Marty Sr GASPS.
Buford holds the gun towards him.
BUFORD
(speaking sarcastically)
Bye-bye, Clint Eastwood.
Sarah screams!
Buford PULLS the TRIGGER.
The bullet goes off, and hits right in Marty Sr's neck!
The seventy-seven-year-old slowly falls down to the ground – dead.
Sarah closes her eyes.
BUFORD
(smirks)
When shooting in the neck, not even a stove door can save him.
(sighs)
He's finally dead.
Buford walks over to Marty, and checks his PULSE. It's not running.
BUFORD
He sure is.
Sarah is still looking at disbelief.
BUFORD
Oh, boys?
The gang turns to him.
GANG MEMBER 2
What's it, Mr. Tannen?
BUFORD
Kill that girl.
Sarah gasps.
SARAH
But… I thought… you said…
Tannen smirks a little.
BUFORD
Never trust an outlaw, girly. Never do.
The gang ready their guns. One of them holds Sarah, and the other two are about to fire as…
MARTY (V.O)
NOOO!!!
Suddenly, MARTY appears! He PUSHES THE GANG MEMBERS OUT OF THE WAY!
Sarah is wide-eyed!
SARAH
Marty? I thought you were in the future!
Marty simply shrugs.
MARTY
Some people aren't what they appear.
Buford gets his gun out.
BUFORD
I don't know how you came here, but you're gonna pay!
(tries to shoot)
Oh no! It's empty!
(to his boys)
Guys, take care of them!
Suddenly, someone taps Buford on the shoulder.
BUFORD
(in the process of turning around)
Hey, what the…
559. BUFORD'S VIEW OF…
MARTY SR, standing there! Buford then GASPS IN DISBELIEF! Not only is Marty still standing, he's purely WHITE! Wearing WHITE PANTS, a WHITE SHIRT, and his entire FACE and HAIR are white as well.
BUFORD
You? But…
He's unable to get the words out.
BUFORD
(contin'd)
… I shot you!
MARTY SR
(in a higher voice than usual)
Well, then I must be dead, huh?
Buford TURNS AROUND, to see his GANG, plus DRIFF, have fleed. They're running away in a distance.
BUFORD
Come back, you gutless yellows!
He starts to back off himself.
MARTY SR
(sarcastically)
Not everything going to plan, Mad Dog?
Buford turns around in anger.
BUFORD
Mad Dog?
He steps FORWARD.
BUFORD
I hate that name. I hate it, ya understand? Nobody calls me Mad Dog! Not even a ghost!
He then NOTICES SOMETHING OFF.
BUFORD
Huh?
559. HIS VIEW OF
A non-white piece in Marty's cheek. We now see a small package on the place the bullet hit, with the bullet and some blood inside it.
Buford REACHES DOWN, puts some of Marty's blood on his FINGER, and TASTES IT.
BUFORD
Tomato sauce.
He steps forward.
BUFORD
Ya trying to pull a trick on me, huh? Well, it ain't going to work this time, since I will-
Suddenly, Buford's TRIPPED, and FALLS DOWN!
BUFORD
What – who the –
He looks up, to see DOC! Doc is just standing there, wearing similar clothes to the ones he wore in Part III.
Buford SMILES.
BUFORD
Well, well, Brown. I didn't know you were still alive!
He crawls up.
DOC
I'm alive and well, Tannen!
BUFORD
That so?
He rises a KNIFE, and points it.
BUFORD
Well, you won't be for much longer.
He REACHES OUT.
Just then, Marty III comes from the left, and SLAMS INTO BUFORD!
Tannen drops his KNIFE, sending it out of course, missing Doc by inches.
Buford looks up.
BUFORD
Who-but-you…
Then, Marty reaches out, and LETS TANNEN HAVE IT, RIGHT IN THE JAW!
That does it! Buford falls back to the ground – he's knocked out.
MARTY
Yes!
Doc looks at Buford and the knife with a 'that was a close one' look.
DOC
Good work, Marty!
He looks at his watch: 8:06PM.
DOC
Come on, you two – we've gotta get to the plane.
Marty Sr and Marty follow, a little hesitant.
We then
CUT TO:
560. EXT. TRAIN'S SITE – NIGHT.
Clara is standing on the mountain, looking at the night sky anxiously. She's looking at her WATCH – it's 9:55 PM.
CLARA
Emmett, where are you…
JULES comes up from behind.
JULES
Relax mother. Father and the others will show up, I am certain.
Clara SMILES AT HIM.
Jules simply shrugs.
Then, a loud noise can be heard…
Clara and Jules turn around to see…
561. EXT. AIRPLANE.
Doc, Marty Sr and Marty, crash-landing the airplane on the ground!
Clara runs over to them.
CLARA
Emmett, are you okay?
DOC
(rubbing his back)
I'm fine, dear.
(annoyed)
Couldn't you give some sign? Flash some flashlights or something?
JULES
I'm sorry, Father, but there were no flashlights.
DOC
It's okay, Jules.
Jules smiles.
562. EXT. DRIFF TANNEN.
He's in his car, with his gang. They're just outside the mountain.
DRIFF
Dad lost because of me, but now I'm going to make up for it.
He and the gang start climbing the mountain.
563. MOUNTAIN.
Marty Sr and Marty now also emerge from the airplane.
MARTY
That was a bumpy ride.
(sighs)
I hope to never go through that again. Dr. Brown, you're the wildest driver I've ever seen.
DOC
Flyer, actually.
(to Marty Sr)
Do you have that kind of comments, too, Marty?
Marty Sr SIGHS.
MARTY SR
I'm just glad to never have to go through that again.
Doc sighs.
He starts walking over to the others.
DOC
Clara, Jules, are the time circuits set?
They look at the trio sheepishly.
DOC
I get it.
He goes inside the train.
DOC
Let's see… time circuits on.
He switches the circuits on. Marty Sr comes now standing next to him, as does Marty. (Note: Present Time is 9:58PM now, and Last Time Departed is NOV 12 2020 11:00 PM.
DOC
(looking at the lower display)
No wonder the system failed. We never used the train again since Verne got dropped off in the future, back in 1910!
Destination Time… let's see… in fact it won't matter, since your alternate selves will always remain to exist. How about the evening you left?
MARTY
How about the day it all started? At least for me? That's October 21st 2045.
DOC
(smiles)
October 21st?
(whistles)
Then late at night… it's night now, too, so that shouldn't be a shock. Nobody may see us, or we could get into trouble. Let's see, time is 11PM. Okay.
564. EXT. DESTINATION TIME.
The date is: October 21, 2045, 11:00 PM.
565. WIDER.
NOTE: Present Time is now 9:59 PM.
Doc turns to the others.
DOC
Everyone aboard?
CLARA
(just coming in)
Check, Emmett.
Doc SMILES.
DOC
Let's BLAST OFF!
He pulls a lever. The train starts making a noise…
564. EXT. TRAIN.
Driff is climbing on the back of the train, but then, slowly, the train starts moving forward, on a lowering path.
DRIFF
Whoa.
565. INT. TRAIN.
The speedometer is saying 5 miles per hour.
Doc is switching all kind of switches.
566. EXT. TRAIN.
The train now is completely on the path, and starts going down faster!
Inside the train, the speed goes from 20 to 30 to 35!
MARTY SR
Whoa!
40…
DOC
2045, here we come!
Outside, Driff is climbing along the train, and hears Doc. He shakes his head.
DRIFF
Buttheads.
DOC (V.O)
There are a few levers outside as well.
567. INT. TRAIN.
He hands Marty a walkie-talkie.
DOC
Here.
He then climbs out carefully.
45…
Doc breathes heavily.
DOC
Whoa.
He sees the sign up ahead in the distance.
INSIDE, Marty Sr sees it as well.
MARTY SR
I hope you know what you're doing.
Then, there's a large gust of wind!
DOC and DRIFF, both on separate paths on the train, HANG ON FOR DEAR LIFE!
The train drops further down.
50…
Outside, Marty Sr can be heard through the walkie-talkie.
MARTY SR (V.O)
Doc, we're going fifty!
Doc is switching the levers.
DOC
Almost ready, Marty!
MARTY SR (V.O)
Be careful!
DOC
I will!
He finishes switching.
DOC
Done!
MARTY SR (V.O)
Doc, we're at fifty-five!
DOC
I'm coming aboard!
He's about to step further, when a GUN is put under his nose!
He looks up to see DRIFF, holding the GUN and a BEER BOTTLE!
DOC
I guess I'm not, after all…
567. INT. CAB.
Marty Sr is looking at the speedometer. It's at 57, rising to 58.
MARTY SR (V.O)
Doc, what's keeping ya!
DRIFF (O.S)
Me, butthead!
Marty Sr GULPS.
MARTY SR
Shit.
568. OUTSIDE.
Doc is still held at gunpoint.
MARTY SR (O.S)
Doc, we're going sixty! You gotta come in here now!
DOC
I'd like to!
DRIFF
(confused)
Butthead, who're you talking to?
Doc realises he DOESN'T KNOW.
DOC
It's a walkie-talkie. We, um, we ALIENS use it to communicate.
Driff frowns.
DRIFF
Aliens? Like in science-friction?
DOC
Fiction. Science-fiction.
MARTY SR (V.O)
Sixty-five!
569. INT. TRAIN.
Marty Sr starts moving outside.
The speedometer says 66 now.
570. EXT. TRAIN.
The sign is coming closer…
Doc closes his eyes, realising he might not survive this, and holds on for dear life…
Driff FINALLY realises what's going on.
DRIFF
Hey, what the…
571. SPEEDOMETER.
Clicking from 69 to 70.
MARTY (O.S)
Seventy.
572. EXT. TRAIN.
The train SMASHES the sign, and RACES OFF THE EDGE!
Driff is almost falling off, hard to keep track of his gun, the beer and himself at the same time!
MARTY SR, appearing from out of the cab, realises this, and THROWS THE WALKIE-TALKIE AT HIM!
That does it! DRIFF gets hit, and DROPS TO THE GROUND!
DRIFF
Argh!
Marty Sr is euphoric!
MARTY SR
Yes!
MARTY
(in cab)
Seventy-five!
MARTY SR
Shit!
(to Doc)
Doc, come over here, right now… nice and easy…
Doc slowly climbs further.
DOC
This isn't easy, Marty!
MARTY SR
I know.
MARTY (O.S)
Eighty, Dad!
MARTY SR
Eighty!
Doc then reaches Marty, and climbs inside!
DOC
Whoa!
He sits down on a chair, and looks at the speedometer… 83.
573. EXT. MARTY'S POV OF…
The speedometer rising to 88,
Flashes appearing,
The pole to appear in sight…
574. EXT. TRAIN.
Just before it's on the height of the pole, it DISSAPPEARS IN A BALL OF FIRE, SENT BACK TO THE FUTURE!
Two flaming trails remain.
575. DOWN BELOW – STRICKLAND MANSION.
SHERRIFF STRICKLAND is sitting there with his WIFE, relaxing.
STRICKLAND
I just wish I would catch Driff Tannen someday. I never get proof of his illegal alcohol.
Then, there is a scream!
The Stricklands watch, as DRIFF drops out of the sky, and FALLS TO THE GROUND!
DRIFF
Ouch!
Strickland gets over to him, and sees the GUN and the BOTTLE.
STRICKLAND
Driff Tannen, you're under arrest for illegal gun possession and illegal alcohol. You will be put to jail.
Driff simply groans.
We zoom up in the night sky, then watch as it dissolves to become an even darker sky.
We get higher, and see that we arrived on the SKYWAY.
Flying lane-markers are around.
Suddenly, three sonic booms flash and the train re-appears down below, and, after a few seconds of dropping, regains it's normal speed and moves up to fly on the skyway – apparently the flying circuits did repair well.
(NOTE: Numbers 576-700 are reserved)
701. INT. TRAIN.
MARTY SR is staring around in disbelief.
MARTY SR
Did we make it?
DOC
Judging from the flying lane-markers, and the electricity in the air that caught onto the panels, I think we did.
702. EXT. TIME DISPLAYS.
They're saying October 21, 2045, 11:00 PM. (Last Time Departed is November 12, 1925, 10:04 PM).
703. WIDER.
Marty Sr sighs relief.
704. EXT. COURTHOUSE SQUARE – NIGHT.
As the train lowers, it's apparently not as crowded as it once was. The Paradise is now gone. Everything seems like 2015 but not as futuristic.
705. EXT. HOUSE.
The train drops down.
MARTY gets out, with MARTY SR.
MARTY SR
Since you lived here before your father's murder, you should also live here now. Be careful though – you might bump into your other self. That is necessary, though – you can't be hidden forever – but you better be careful. For all we know, he doesn't know about time travel. You might scare him if you just show up like that.
MARTY
I'll keep that in mind.
Marty Sr climbs back into the train, as it FLIES OFF.
Marty heads towards the door, and RINGS THE BELL.
Marty's mother SUZY, 47, opens. She looks DIFFERENT – looking thinner.
Marty can't believe it.
MARTY
Mom? Is that you?
SUZY
Yeah. What are you doing out at such a time? And besides, I saw you go to bed just a few minutes…
Marty hugs her tightly.
Suzy is startled.
SUZY
What's the matter?
MARTY
(realizes)
Nothing.
He walks inside.
706. EXT. LIVING ROOM.
MARTY JUNIOR is just sitting there. He's now 47 and too looks very healthy. There are music plates all around him.
MARTY JUNIOR
(looking up)
Oh, hi son!
MARTY
(in disbelief)
Dad you're alive!
JUNIOR
Of course I am. Why shouldn't I be-
He then remembers.
JUNIOR
Marty? Future Boy? The person that visited us in twenty-fifteen for a few days?
MARTY
The one and only.
Junior goes over, and hugs his alternate son.
JUNIOR
It's so good to see you!
SUZY
(puzzled)
But you just saw him a few minutes ago.
LOCAL MARTY (O.S)
Mom?
At that moment, local MARTY MCFLY III enters, yawning. The yawn stops as he sees his other self.
MARTY
You're – me?
Suzy looks in disbelief between the two Marty's.
SUZY
Martin, I think you've got some explaining to do.
JUNIOR
You're right. Call Jennifer – we'll tell it to everyone at the same time.
SUZY
(still in disbelief)
Okay.
She walks out of the door.
Marty looks at his other self.
MARTY
Hi me.
LOCAL MARTY
(still in disbelief)
Uh… hi?
707. INT. ROOM – LATER.
SUZY and LOCAL JENNIFER are sitting there. They're all stunned.
SUZY
Now this is heavy.
MARTY
It is.
(realizes)
Hey Dad, did you give away that hoverboard to the girl?
JUNIOR
Yeah. Gave me some trouble, but I managed.
MARTY
That's good.
Local Marty shakes his head in disbelief.
LOCAL MARTY
I can't believe I was Griff's stepson in that timeline. He's our servant, now!
Marty looks at his local self in disbelief.
MARTY
Get outta town!
SUZY
It's true.
Marty gasps.
MARTY
(chuckles)
I'd love to see him sweeping the floor and cleaning the walls.
SUZY
Well, he's coming by soon. It's Sunday tomorrow, and that's one of the days he comes.
Marty grins.
708. EXT. MCFLY HOUSEHOLD – DAY.
Marty is sitting with Sarah.
SARAH
I can't believe how much has changed.
MARTY
So how are you getting along with your other self.
SARAH
Just fine. She's a lot like me.
MARTY
We get along great too. Local Marty and me, I mean.
SARAH
You know, after all these adventures, there's one that I haven't been through yet.
MARTY
What, then?
She pulls him closer.
SARAH
This.
She's about to kiss him as a loud clap of the door can be heard.
709. EXT. HOUSE.
GRIFF, 49, gets out. He's wearing a servant coat saying 'Servant Griff'. He passes Marty and Sarah, who gape at him.
Griff opens the MAILBOX, gets out the MAIL, and is about to pass the teens as he sees them.
GRIFF
(nicely)
Oh hi, Marty, Sarah. How are you?
MARTY
Fine… Griff, what are you doing?
Griff, confused, holds up the mail.
GRIFF
Just getting the mail out of the box!
He hurries off.
MARTY looks confused.
Sarah pulls him closer. They're again about to kiss, as a loud screech is heard.
710. EXT. ROAD.
DOC is there in a DELOREAN, with MARTY SR. They're dressed in rather futuristic clothes.
Marty looks in disbelief at them. .
MARTY
How did you get the DeLorean back!
DOC
Oh, this isn't yours. This is Griff's… the one he used… will use to bring himself the almanac. Turns out that he broke into my laboratory just yesterday to get the blueprints!
He pats the stainless steel.
DOC
I think I got use for it.
MARTY
Where ya going, Doc?
DOC
2075. I want a nice place display on this time machine, too, and I think that it'll go faster in the future. After that, who knows? We're going to make a boy's trip out, so you call.
MARTY
With persons of 77 and 105?
DOC
(shrugs)
Why not? Anyway, it doesn't matter how long it takes. We'll be back here tonight.
He then roars off down the street.
Marty and Sarah watches as the DeLorean vanishes.
MARTY
Now where were we?
SARAH
Just about here…
They pull closer…
And they kiss.
711. WIDER.
We zoom out on them.
712. EXT. HOUSE.
We see a 2040s TRUCK, with Marty and Sarah inside, lifting up and flying off through the sky. It then turns around and heads towards the camera.
The screen turns dark.

THE END?
