It's the morning after the party. The street is quiet; birds chirp from the trees, the morning dew fresh on the leaves and car windows. Will walks down the street, hands in his pockets, contemplating. As he passes by an alleyway, he notices Graham leaning on a wall. He keeps walking and Graham joins him.
You disappeared on me.
That was months ago.
That was a week ago. I've been trying to find you.
Well, I'm here. How can I help you?
Did I do something wrong?
No, not at all. You gave me superpowers. Thank you.
Will! Why won't you talk to me?
Will stops, sighs.
We don't know each other, and I don't want to. I don't want to think about any of this. I just want to move on.
Is that what you've been doing? Moving on?
Will starts walking again.
Will stops in his tracks, but Graham stays behind.
You think visiting your dying girlfriend every day is good for you?
Will's angry. He walks back to Graham.
How do you know about that?
It's like an imprint. Travellers can feel each other. There's a lot I can teach you.
What I get up to is none of your business.
I warned you not to change the past.
(exploding)
And I didn't! I didn't.
(more quiet now)
I sit there in that room every day pretending, lying to Maya that this is the first time I'm watching her die. Because that's what you told me to do. But if you think for a moment I'm not going to stay with her...
You can't live in the past.
He starts walking again, but Graham places a firm hand on his shoulder.
You always have a choice.
Will pulls away again, then walks off angrily.
