Theme- What if John was born on election night? He is born on November 6, 1984. According to Google, Ronald Reagan was reelected as president on Tuesday, November 6, 1984.
Time Period: The Present Reality
Scene: John's bedroom
(Sarah (Lena) catches John at his desk and on his laptop)
Sarah: Your birthday is coming up soon. How do you want to celebrate your birthday?
John (confused): My birthday is in February. I wasn't born in November.
Sarah: There has been a mistake
John: What do you mean?
Sarah: You were actually born in November. Traveling through time messed up the dates for your conception and birth.
John (shocked): I can't believe this
Sarah (calling for Kyle): KYLE..
Kyle ((Jonathan) coming to Sarah's aid): Yes my love
Sarah: Please explain to John the circumstances surrounding his conception and birth.
Kyle (to John): Your conception took place at a hotel in March of 1984. You were born at home on November 6, 1984. Ronald Reagan was reelected as president on this date.
(And then the flashback begins)
Time Period: March of 1984 (John's conception)
Place: A hotel
Action: Pops (Arnold) stands outside the door while a newlywed Kyle (Jai) and Sarah (Emilia) handle their "business". Kyle and Sarah make love in hopes of conceiving John. Sarah does actually become pregnant on her wedding night.
