The Visitors Arrive
Director
Others wanted to go, but were too old: we were chosen by computer.
Hello.
Where are you?
Good morning.
Let's get moving.
It looks like...
A faster pace!
The wig?
Who's going to tell him? You?
I'm completely calm.
- You prepared a fire? - Soon.
Don't take long.
Perhaps he really doesn't know that his expedition...
It's not working.
The fool!
He was serious!
Richard!
Answer me!
- Professor! - He's not there.
Professor!
Not there.
Here he is, come on.
Come on, help me, help me!
I wanted to put it out, I guess I gave too large a dose.
Let me go.
I'm okay.
Departure in an hour.
Welcome.
- What happened to you? - They wore this at the time.
Please.
I also have a surprise.
Cake.
It's amarouny.
But that's not all, I left the best till last.
The violin, Adam Bernau,
wrote about, which accompanied him throughout his childhood.
I'm impressed by the idea, that in two hours, I'll see Adam Bernau, alive.
- And on the day of his 11th birthday. - And we'll be back for four hours.
This is fun.
As he went that way, Mum and Dad to start on Taucety.
Everything was quiet, with beautiful girls, and we...
Begin preperation.
Remove the protection.
'Kinetor'.
Thank you.
Remember once more:
no intervention in history.
No-one from the past, should know we are visitors.
It is something they would not understand.
2484.
Now I am born!
Now I am not!
2123.
Settlement of Mars.
Peace treaty.
1989.
Eight.
Seven.
Six.
Five!
- Its stopped now. - Don't touch anything!
We are an hour away, from Adam Bernau's house.
Get everything ready.
We are located on a desolate stretch of a road, between...
'Bouooak' and 'Kamenice'.
We know our tasks.
Polluted air within tolerance: temperature, eighteen degrees.
- But... - What?
The road is not here.
Nonsense.
There must be construction machinery depot, back...
there!
- Your hand! - Stretch it!
Help me, I was nearly a goner!
Very grateful.
We are probably... somewhere else.
- Let's find out. - Come into the car.
- I have the code. - We have been transported elsewhere.
- What are they? - To prevent colds.
Maybe we pressed another button.
- You saying something? - No.
Emilia!
Watch out!
There are flowers!
And the birds fly!
It's so beautiful.
How did you get there?
From up above!
Is this the road to Chemnitz?
It will be.
- But when? - In a year!
- This will be when? - In a year!
Hold on, damn it!
I'm holding.
But which year?
1984?
*untranslated*
Do not move, I'll get help.
The year 1984.
'Floods in Italy'.
'The council discusses safety.'
'All agree.'
Call, C.B.H.
We need to report, but who knows the password?
Try, 'Adam Expedition 84', to C.B.H.
We need your password, come up with it, we've only three minutes left.
Look under, 'P' for password.
Not there, that's the library.
'P' for...
- He said discreetly and you... - What about me?
Transponder.
It moves our termination point through time.
Visitors calling C.B.H.
Tell them to send us a piece of rope.
- Move our termination point. - Tell them we have no rope.
'Disturbances in automatic C.B.H. reception.'
'Please report the parameters, so C.B.H. can understand.'
'What kind of rope?'
'What is the deviation?'
Dangling our feet.
Hanging on a cliff!
Sixty yards above the road from Bouooak to Kamenice.
'Third control.'
'Error undiscovered.'
'C.B.H., regrets,'
'mistake made in the assignment.'
'Dangerous to continue.'
Tell them...
Tell them that...
What shall I say?
What if we fail to send another expedition?
The World Council agrees to their return,
based on the decision of C.B.H.
'Karas requests C.B.H. to jerk its feet.'
Clarify.
Too risky.
The energy can only be used in case of emergency draining.
But this is an emergency.
Give us two hours and we'll have the first notebook.
In less than two hours: an hour and a half is enough.
Calling Academic Richard.
Can we do it?
This is Richard.
After considering all circumstances, the expedition decided that...
'C.B.H. reporting.'
'C.B.H. reporting.'
'Central Brain of Humanity'.
'Connection...'
'interrupted.'
'C.B.H., regrets.'
You know about this?
Where are you now?
Hello?
Come on dog.
Bernau: guys, get him!
Adam!
We'll wait till school tomorrow to get you!
Are you all right, Adam?
Just the tee-shirt.
But not the notebook.
What's inside to make them want to take it off you?
Secret calculations, not for girls.
Unless...
Unless what?
Unless you...
Adam!
Wait!
Adam!
"Oh, those beautiful childhood days."
'Writes Nobel Laureate, Adam Bernau, fifty years later, in his memoirs.'
'Volume one, page sixty-three.'
'Dreams of major discoveries.'
'Beneficial for all mankind.'
Note that I disagree.
It's probably the only solution.
Prepare.
Booting.
This time it will be more expensive, Dido.
The helicopter and the entire emergency.
- Where do you think the car was? - There.
But it went over there.
What about your shed? It fall down by itself?
Hey, rum!
- 'Kontusovka'. - But...
Well...
Please, thirty percent of energy consumption for an emergency.
Two thirds for propulsion.
You were great.
- To think, you wanted to go back. - Well...
They'll never stop.
Unless...
Unless what?
Unless the notebook is torn.
Completely calm.
- Tomorrow, we'll see. - But where?
If you're in the park tomorrow, I'll catch you, you vandal!
Don't think we don't know who drilled...
Why me?
Why do you think it's me?
Vandal!
And you stole my fish.
Look, sheep!
Mountain variety.
Typical areas for cultivating sheep in the second half of the twentieth century,
were Australia and Wallachia.
Sheep? No.
They were cows.
Sheep were hairy.
What are sheep?
What next? This isn't a school trip.
I thought we were given an accurate program.
Be careful!
Bus!
Look, nomads.
Typical dwelling of the rural poor.
How dull.
She said it was me, so? She should shut her mouth.
But all the time she grinds and grinds.
It's one thing to teach about it, another to see it with my own eyes.
*untranslated*
Remember, the 'hypodromie' era only began in the 21st century.
The twentieth century failed to manipulate the weather.
Oh...
Dad.
- Well, see you. - See you.
Adam, what time should you be home?
What's that? Give it here, give it here!
Fido!
Adam!
Adam, do you hear?
The notebook.
I can explain everything, Dad.
Fido!
I'll shoot you.
The beast!
- Look at those footprints. - Here, look at these women.
- *untranslated* - They teach this?
- Adam... - *untranslated*
No university will take you.
Because you won't know how to calculate.
*untranslated*
You'll end up a football player.
- Adam. - Come here!
Adam, open this door!
- It's his birthday. - *untranslated*
Adam, come out!
You should be ashamed.
Adam, is this the way? Open this instant!
Adam!
Adam.
Dad has already gone, come out, don't worry, do you hear?
Why do you keep it locked?
I've heard twice from the committee that you're distilling alcohol.
What alcohol?
I'm here with rotting apples and my shovel.
Here they are transporting houses and animal statues...
I'd prefer to change the colour and number.
We can't delay while you play.
We'd never get to Kamenice that way.
And grip the steering wheel!
Grab it!
Stop: we must stop when we are supposed to.
Probably a greeting, developed from a salute.
From simply raising their hands to prove they don't have a gun,
to a handshake.
And now will you?
Engage control.
Prepare documents.
They are in the bag, not in the boot.
- *untranslated*, Doctor. - Doctor, *untranslated*
Five hours.
Beginning exactly now, to remember how to get to
Adam Bernau's house.
You should be ashamed.
Daddy tries his best.
And you? Come on, at least try.
- But Mum... - See that you try.
*untranslated*
Go on.
Go on, and with feeling.
*untranslated*
No?
Adam.
Fido!
*untranslated*
*untranslated*
Dad.
Can I?
- Don't be angry with me. - Yeah?
I'll be angry.
*untranslated*
Taste it.
- Can't you go any faster? - No, I'm not a machine.
But I remember.
Left, business premises, right, opticians, chemist...
'Roundabout in a clockwise direction, to take precedence over driving'.
On the right side, the Hotel Lion, the museum...
Try and be serious...
Straight on, to the gate!
Everyone agree: left at the dairy, right at the watchmakers.
But the other way.
It should be another gate. Pay attention!
What's up with your driving? It's one-way traffic!
What is the address?
The Bernau residence, Tuokach Street, Number 15.
It's the Bernau house!
*untranslated*
Here, come past, stop!
Karas, your answer will be delayed.
Quickly!
Get dressed up.
