In our everyday life,

everything we encounter has clear

and unambiguous space and time coordinates.

Our experience of time as linear

and space as three-dimensional

is mandatory and convincing.

Therefore we quickly come

to the conclusion that,

the characteristics of time and space

are indispensable and absolute.

Let's describe the process of creation

as a movement

from the undifferentiated unit

to diversity.

and unfolds in linear time.

But already in the Tibetan Book of the Dead

the Dharmakaya is described,

the clear primordial light.

Hey.

the clear primordial light

Did you order something?

No, I didn't actually.

It says your name on it.

With hot regards.

I don't know,

I'll have a look at it later.

Want me to help you unpack?

I'll manage.

All you have to do is open up here,

- right here.

- I have to finish this quickly.

- Sure. Nah, no problem.

- Sorry.

I'll be in the kitchen,

so if you need me

- I'll come around, okay?

- Yes.

See you later.

It is the same with creation.

On this level the past,

present and future exist side by side,

instead of following one another,

and consequently all stages

occur simultaneously.

Done?

Yes, all I've gotta do now is

add the time-lapse

and render the color correction.

- Good.

I'll go ahead and say hello

and we'll be right with you

All right.

and yet:

Our mind is an image of the cosmos.

Everything is one and everything is right.

And we are here,

to have that experience.

Here you go.

This is our editor, Merlin.

My pleasure. Salander.

Hello.

- Amato.

- Nice to meet you.

- Garcia. Hello.

- Hello.

Well, then,

Take a seat.

Please.

I see we have some fresh water for you.

If you want to help yourself.

Anyone something to drink?

Let me check where that coffee is.

Adding the time-lapse.

we can not only experience the present,

but also the past.

With hot regards.

Hey.

the clear primordial light

Did you order something?

No, I didn't actually.

- Sorry.

I'll be in the kitchen,

so if you need me

- I'll come around, okay?

Say, do you have an aspirin

or something by chance?

No, but, but

I can ask the girls outside and

yeah, I think you should let some air

in and drink more water.

Yep. Thank you very much, Doc.

Oh, shit!

Say, do you have an aspirin

or something by chance?

Oh, sorry. No, but

I can ask the girls out there,

if you want.

and

If I were you,

I'd open the window for a bit.

and let some air inside.

I asked you that before, didn't I?

No.

Are you all right?

I don't know.

If I were you,

I'd drink less carbonated water, too.

You only get flatulence from it

and

ride your bike more often, you know.

Because of circulation and

- Done?

Yeah, almost.

Yes, all I've gotta do now is add the time-lapse

and render the color correction.

I'll go ahead and say hello

and we'll be right with you, ok?

Okay.

- Please don't forget the coffee, will you?

- With everything that goes with it?

- Yeah, the special dishes

for the important guests, ok?

Everything is one and everything is right

and we are here to have this experience.

Here you go.

This is our editor Merlin.

- My pleasure, Salander.

Hello

-Amato.

Nice to meet you

- Garcia, hello.

Well then, take a seat, please.

I see we have some fresh water for you.

if you want to help yourself.

Anyone something to drink?

Let me check, where that coffee is.

Blow and make a wish.

Martin, I have one more thing,

I prepared a little song for you

It's nothing special really

but I hope you like it anyway.

. All the best to you dear Martin,

We wish you all the best. .

. You have been there for thirty years,

we think that's wonderful .

. All the best to you dear Martin .

almost. that's how it would have been... Wuuuh...

- Wanna see a magic trick?

- Yes, of course.

Have a good look,

first I shuffle a bit of course.

Obviously, very professional, of course.

All right, now pick a card,

I'm not allowed to see it, only you are.

- Okay, you remember it?

- Yes.

Of course the card deck needs

a bit of magical salt

So look closely

- Hey!

- Ah hi, thanks.

- Sorry about earlier, I meant no offense.

- Ah never mind,

wasn't my best performance either.

- I'm Penny, hi.

- Hi, Merlin.

Merlin like the Wizard?

Yes, like the Wizard and

I've already heard all of the jokes about it.

But I think you sang enchantingly.

Mmm, thank you.

- Can you do anything else besides singing

and magic tricks?

- Sushi. I make quite a good sushi.

- No, I can't stand fish.

-Well, what about vegetarian sushi...

Where and when?

- Next week?

- Okay.

- Alright...

Hey...

- Miro?

Do you know where he is?

He was just rushing out.

- Why? Where to?

- Probably ate something bad.

Well, fantastic.

Well, there you go.

Our editor, Merlin.

will be with us in a moment.

Then I suggest you take a seat.

Here you go.

Jump for me!

So, we definitely need that, Wasabi,

for later... You can take this.

- Don't rub it off on me.

- Surely!

- Boah, this is getting hot as hell.

- Wait, wait, we have this thing for that.

- What's that?

- I really burned my fingers.

Ouh, there is rice everywhere.

I think I'm gonna go get

a rag or something.

Ah, okay.

- I got it, I got it, I got it.

- Very well done, very, very well.

- Do you have a smaller knife?

- Nah, I've only got big knives to show off.

Okay, it's a lie.

- Do you want to drink something?

- Yes, do you have coffee or something?

- Coffee I've got, with milk?

- Yes, do you have soy milk?

- No.

- Then black please.

Okay, fine.

- On my sacred wall?

- Yes, then you will have some next time.

Come on, let's just do this.

- But I'm winning, watch.

- Show-off.

Yeah, I've got it on.

It's okay.

Hey.

Did you order something?

With hot regards.

You all right, man?

I'll be in the kitchen if you need me.

But I'll come around, okay?

- Done?

-They'll be here soon.

- Okay.

Hello time traveller.

My mame is Tadeus Moff,

we don't know each other.

And yet,

I've been looking for you for an eternity.

What I have to tell you sounds strange, but...

- Here you go.

- Merlin!

This is our editor Merlin.

- My pleasure, Salander.

I suggest you take a seat first, please.

I see we have some fresh water for you.

If you want to help yourself.

Anyone something to drink?

Let me check, where that coffee is.

Come on, you can do it.

Just take your time.

Well, I'm taking my time already.

- This is so much fun. Ah, great.

- That's what I told you.

- Next time we'll go swim-

- Urgh!

- I have been bullied, well at least a little bit.

- As a child?

- Yes.

- Why?

- Had glasses.

- Glasses, that's it?

Yes, that's all that kids need, you know...

you wear the wrong sweater

or something like that

and they set their sights on you right away.

- Hm, okay.

- Haven't you?

No, well I was never the athletic type.

That wasn't really great, but other than that.

- But you made it up here.

- Yes, I made it up here perfectly well.

Well, that's the way it is.

- But would you do anything different?

- From the past?

- Mh.

- Nah, I don't think so.

Me neither, I think.

Maybe leave out the glasses.

If you have a choice.

- You have real pretty eyes. Show me.

- Thank you.

Oh, ey wait for me.

- Hello.

- Hello, Wizard.

- Oh man.

- If you jump, you get the kiss.

You'd better call the fire department and tell

them to fetch the fat tomcat out of the tree.

Jump!

- It's very easy, just jump.

- Yes, I'm doing it.

Do it for me.

Jump!

- Hey. There's a package.

- Hey.

Yeah, I'll handle it.

-Sorry, I have to carry on.

- I can help.

Hello time traveller.

My name is Tadeus Moff.

We don't know each other.

And yet, I've been looking for you

for an eternity.

What I have to tell you sounds strange.

And I hope that you will find the feeling

within you that says you can trust me.

At least it's one truth,

and if you believe me,

it will become yours too.

I'm sure you already noticed

our little dilemma With the time.

Actually, time is always a problem.

At least, subjectively.

I am also part of this time problem,

but I am by far not as much

in the center of it as you are.

It's like throwing a stone into the water.

The circular waves are smaller

where the stone lands

The exact circumstances that led to it,

I can't explain right now.

I'm afraid there's no time for that.

But let me put it this way,

In the future, there will be a problem

for which I assume I am partly responsible.

Or. will be.

Anyway, there are people,

who feel these time waves.

And you're one of them.

I have a quest for you.

Have a look at the drawing,

attached to the kaleidoscope.

- Merlin!

It's a seemingly simple drawing

without much of a message.

But if you fold it

in the righty way,

if the right spots

touch each other,

a completely new image is created.

- Open the door, Merlin!

Fold the time wave.

And get the right points

to touch each other.

You need to go to the epicenter.

It's not far from you.

However, not feasible within

a single time wave.

That's why you have to shift

the time wave's starting point.

You can do that,

by creating an event within

the reversed time phase

that originally did not take place.

Once this paradox occurs,

the time wave will start over again.

The hourglass should match the interval

of a time wave in your section.

And the compass

shows you the way to the epicenter.

You'll meet a second time traveler.

She's got the weapons.

Together you must jump into the source.

Inside the source

all you've got is one time wave,

to master your

actual quest:

Kill the clown

and rescue the mermaid.

- Miro!

- What is the matter with you?

- The door is locked.

The kaleidoscope

will help you focus,

because that's what kaleidoscopes

are there for.

You'll know when you need it.

And remember:

No matter what we do,

there will be a reaction as a consequences.

It's uncertain, however,

if we only influence the future

with the things we do.

Maybe our decisions in the present

also leave traces behind in the past.

- Merlin!

However, we certainly influence

the present with every action.

By saving your timeline

you'll save the time itself.

Do it!

Kill the clown

and rescue the mermaid!

- Open the door!

- Yes, hello?

- Hello, Wizard.

Oh, I'm not a magician today,

today I am a sheriff.

Tell me, where are you anyway?

Hey, really funny.

- I've been waiting here the entire time.

- Sorry, took a bit longer.

- But look, I'm a mermaid.

- Very, very beautiful. Okay, come on.

- Tell me, where'd you leave your gun?

- Oh, I don't know, I couldn't find it.

- Oh.

- Never mind.

Watch it.

Whoo!

Yeah? Impressive.

Wow, awesome.

And you'd just give this to me?

- Hey.

- Yeah, thanks, I'll open that.

- If you need anything.

- I have to carry on, sorry.

Miro!

Well, there you go.

Our editor Merlin will be

with us in a moment.

Are you...?

Yes, hello?

- Hello wizard.

- Hi.

I just met an old friend of mine.

and he asked me to give this to you.

- Now you have your own gun!

- Great, cool, super.

- Yeah, well, maybe a bit too modern

but awesome...

- Cool, wanna go? - Yes.

Yeah, come, come, come, come.

- Come on, dance!

- I can't dance.

Oh, nonsense.

Okay, look.

I'm going to explain

the only rule of dancing to you.

It doesn't matter what you do,

just make sure you do it from

the bottom of your heart.

- They'll think you kidnapped me.

- Oh nonsense, I am Captain Space World.

- I'm here to save you.

- Oh, my hero, save the mermaid!

That's right, you crappy zombies.

Oh, shit!

- Hey.

- Hey.

- Did you order something?

- Did you order something?

- It says your name on it.

- It says your name on it.

- Is everything all right with you?

- Yeah, it's all good.

You know that I have to carry on,

I'm okay.

I'll go to the kitchen

and take out the garbage.

- Done?

- Yes.

You know, they'll be here soon.

I'll go say hello

and then we'll be right with you.

Merlin. Merlin!

Well, that's our editor, Merlin.

I suggest you take a seat first, please.

Ah, I see we've got water,

you can help yourself.

And I'll check where that coffee is.

I'm back again.

And...?

Is it you?

Yeah, thanks for the talk.

Kill the clown and rescue the mermaid.

What was that?

I can do that with the time...

Shift the waves...

Okay.

And you?

You don't talk?

- Yes.

- Because you can't?

Yes.

Is it possible that you don't feel like

talking about it at all?

- Yes.

Here you go.

Our editor seems to be...

Merlin our editor, seems to be

available to us in a moment.

Maybe you want to take a seat first.

What, and this is your compass?

I somehow always draw the short straw.

This is Schneider, I found someone

in the basement on the left.

Hey, it's okay.

You don't have to be afraid.

You're safe now.

Did he just bump into you or what?

We could've bought a ticket at least.

Hey, Ava.

I brought you some juice.

Are you done with the drawing yet

or do you need more pencils?

Can I have a look?

That...

that is the man you were with?

Are you sure?

Let me put this away

and get us something to play, ok?

- Hello, emergency call center here...

Is there a problem?

Hello?

Nah, everything all right,

I pushed the button by accident.

What does that mean, by accident?

It's not that easy right now.

The rule is that

I have to send someone now

and you have to wait `till

my colleague gets there.

No, that really isn't necessary.

That's neither your

nor my decision to make.

Just stay in the elevator, someone is

definitely going to have a look now.

Until then nothing will happen at all.

Oh well, I actually don't care.

- Hello, hello, hello, wait a minute, hello!

- I am impressed.

And why are you here?

Did you also get a message?

What is that?

That's your weapon.

This one?

Wow... thank you very much.

You know... this thing with the mermaid and all that...

I think it`s somehow connected to me.

One thing is for sure, she wasn't alone.

By now we assume that

there were three more girls.

The doctors say she feels guilty,

because she was the only one who survived.

We don't really know yet,

what she's been through

before she was able to hide

in the basement.

And if she could talk before she was kidnapped

or if she's only been mute since the trauma,

we don't know either.

We have all this summed up for you

in one folder.

Oh and one more thing.

As future parents of Ava,

you should know about it

to prevent her from being traumatized again.

The man who abducted the children,

always showed himself in a costume.

This is a drawing that Ava

made of him.

Excuse me,

I think that is your camera.

What are they doing there?

Let's go.

Heinz, send two people to corridor ten, quick!

Yeah, I know.

Fuck.

I think I might end up in a loony bin.

That's enough.

Leave me alone.

Stop it now!

Have a look at this.

It`s for the mermaid.

Jump into the source

Jump for me

It`s very easy, just jump.

Jump into the source

Hey.

I'm so sorry.

I'm so sorry.

I don't know what to do.

You've already done it.

Miro?

Miro!

Did a package arrive for me?

Do I work at the post office?

- I wanted to talk to you. Are you done?

- Yes, almost.

Good.

They'll be here in a moment.

I'll go and say hello and then

we'll be right with you.

Okay.

- Miro, don't forget that coffee! Don't forget.

- Yes, I'm already on my way.

... and unfolds in linear time.

But already in the Tibetan Book of the Dead.

the Dharmakaya is described.

- Here you go.

- Merlin.

- This is our editor, Merlin.

- My pleasure, Salander.

No problem.

I suggest you take a seat first.

- I'm sure he'll be with us in a moment.

- Here's some fresh water for you.

If you want to help yourself.

Let me check where that coffee is.

Hello wizard.

Hello.

The future is free.
