Doc?
:11:03
Hi, Marty. I didn't hear you come in.
:11:07
Fascinating device, this video unit.
:11:11
Listen, Doc.
:11:12
I haven't told you about --
- One shouldn't know about his own destiny.

:11:17
-You don't understand.
-I do.

:11:19
If I know too much
I endanger my own existence...

:11:21
...just as you've endangered yours.
:11:25
You're right.
:11:27
Let me show you my plan
for sending you home.

:11:30
Please excuse the crudity of this model.
:11:32
I didn't have time to build it to scale
or paint it.

:11:35
-It's good.
-Thank you.

:11:38
We run industrial-strength electrical cable
from the top of the clock tower...

:11:43
...down, suspending it over the street
between these two lampposts.

:11:46
Meanwhile, we've outfitted the time
vehicle with this big pole and hook...

:11:50
...which runs directly
into the flux capacitor.

:11:54
At the calculated moment...
:11:56
...you start o"ff f"rom down the street...
:11:59
...driving directly toward the cable,
accelerating to 88 miles per hour.

:12:03
According to the flyer, at precisely
10:04 p.m. this Saturday night...

:12:06
...lightning will strike the clock tower,
electrifying the cable...

:12:10
...as the connecting hook makes contact...
:12:12
...thereby sending 1.21 gigawatts
into the flux capacitor...

:12:16
...and sending you back to 1985.
:12:18
All right, now. Watch this.
You wind up the car and release it.

:12:24
I'll simulate the lightning.
:12:34
Ready.
:12:44
Set.
:12:50
Release.
