the world's first time traveler.
DOC: I sent him into the future.
One minute into the future, to be exact.
At precisely 1:21 a. m. and zero seconds...
...we shall catch up with him
and the time machine.
[Dramatic instrumental music ends]
Wait a minute, Doc.
Are you telling me that
you built a time machine...
-... out of a DeLorean?
-The way I see it...
...if you're going to build a time machine
into a car, why not do it with style?
Besides, the stainless-steel construction
made the flux dispersal...
[Watch beeping]
Look out!
[Tires squealing]
[Remote control beeps]
[Time machine steaming and creaking]
[Doc gasps]
MARTY: What? Is it hot?
DOC: It's cold. Damn cold.
[Doc laughing]
Einstein, you little devil!
Einstein's clock is exactly one minute
behind mine and still tickingI
MARTY: He's okay.
DOC: He's fine.
He's completely unaware
that anything happened.
As far as he's concerned,
the trip was instantaneous.
That's why his watch is exactly
one minute behind mine.
He skipped over that minute to
instantly arrive at this moment in time.
I'll show you how it works.
First, you turn the time circuits on.
[Machine powering up]
[Machine whirs]
DOC: This tells you where you're going,
this where you are and this where you were.
Input your destination time on this keypad.
Say you want to see the signing
of the Declaration of Independence.
[Machine bleeps]
DOC: Or witness the birth of Christ.
Here's a red-letter date
in the history of science.
November 5, 1955.
Yes, of course.
November 5, 1955.
What happened?
That was the day I invented time travel.
I rememberit vividly.
I was standing on my toilet
hanging a clock.
The porcelain was wet.
I slipped, hit my head on the sink.
When I came to, I had a revelation.
A vision. A picture in my head.
A picture of this.
This is what makes time travel possible.
The flux capacitor.
Flux capacitor?
It's taken almost 30 years and my family
fortune to realize the vision of that day.
My God, has it been that long?
Things have certainly changed around here.
I remember when this was all farmland
as far as the eye could see.
Old man Peabody owned all of this.
He had this crazy idea
about breeding pine trees.
This is...
This is heavy-duty, Doc. This is great.
Does it run on regular unleaded gasoline?
Unfortunately, no. It requires something
with a little more kick. Plutonium.
Plutonium. Wait a minute.
Are you telling me
that this sucker is nuclear?
Keep rolling there.
No, this sucker's electrical...
...but I need a nuclear reaction to generate
the 1.21 gigawatts of electricity I need.
You don't just walk into a store
and buy plutonium.
Did you rip that off?
Of course. From a group of Libyans.
They wanted me to build them a bomb.
I took the plutonium and gave them a
bomb casing full of pinball machine parts.
DOC: Come on. Let's get you a radiation suit.
MARTY: Jesus!
[Breathing distorted by suit]
[Sucking]
It's safe now. Everything's lead-lined.
[Suspenseful instrumental music]
DOC: Don't lose those tapes now.
I need that as a record.
Let's put this back here. There we go.
Almost forgot my luggage.
Who knows if they got
cotton underwear in the future.
-I'm allergic to all synthetics.
-The future.
-That's where you're going.
-Right.
25 years. I've always dreamed of seeing
the future, looking beyond my years...
...seeing the progress of mankind.
MARTY: Why not?
I'll also be able to see
who wins the next 25 World Series.
MARTY: Doc.
Look me up when you get there.
Indeed I will. Roll 'em.
[Doc clearing throat]
I, Dr. Emmett Brown...
...am about to embark
on an historic journey.
What am I thinking of?
I almost forgot to bring extra plutonium.
How do I expect to get back?
One pellet, one trip.
I must be out of my mind.
[Einstein barking]
What is it?
[Ominous instrumental music]
My God.
They found me.
I don't know how, but they found me.
DOC: Run for it, Marty!
MARTY: Who?
Who do you
