Here's a red-letter date
in the history of science.
:24:06
November 5, 1955.
:24:12
Yes, of course.
:24:14
November 5, 1955.
:24:17
What happened?
:24:20
That was the day I invented time travel.
:24:23
I remember it vividly.
:24:24
I was standing on my toilet
hanging a clock.
:24:27
The porcelain was wet.
l slipped, hit my head on the sink.
:24:29
When I came to, I had a revelation.
:24:31
A vision. A picture in my head.
A picture of this.
:24:35
This is what makes time travel possible.
:24:38
The flux capacitor.
:24:40
Flux capacitor?
:24:42
It's taken almost 30 years and my family
fortune to realize the vision of that day.
:24:46
My God, has it been that long?
:24:49
Things have certainly changed around here.
:24:53
I remember when this was all farmland
as far as the eye could see.
:24:58
Old man Peabody owned all of this.
:25:02
He had this crazy idea
about breeding pine trees.
:25:09
This is...
This is heavy-duty, Doc. This is great.
:25:13
Does it run on regular unleaded gasoline?
:25:15
Unfortunately, no. It requires something
with a little more kick. Plutonium.
:25:19
Plutonium. Wait a minute.
:25:21
Are you telling me
that this sucker is nuclear?
:25:24
Keep rolling there.
:25:26
No, this sucker's electrical...
:25:27
...but I need a nuclear reaction to generate
the 1.21 gigawatts of electricity I need.
:25:31
You don't just walk into a store
and buy plutonium.
:25:35
Did you rip that off?
:25:39
Of course. From a group of Libyans.
They wanted me to build them a bomb.
:25:43
I took the plutonium and gave them a
bomb casing full of pinball machine parts.
:25:47
Come on. Let's get you a radiation suit.
- Jesus!
