剧情提示:

亨利是一名图书管理员,患上慢性时间错位症,以至于每次发病都将穿越时空。而且,他每次穿越都赤身裸体,经常闹出笑话。久而久之,亨利习以为常。一个偶然的机会,他爱上了一个名叫克莱尔的女孩。为了追求克莱尔,他穿越时空对6岁的克莱尔表白,并许诺未来将娶她为妻。本片段就是亨利对6岁的克莱尔介绍自己的情景。

Claire: Who is there?

Henry: Greetings, earthling.

Claire: Mark, you idiot.

Henry: Ow! Claire, I'm not gonna hurt you. Just please don't throw anything at me.

Claire: Who are you, how do you know my name, and why can't you come out?

Henry: Can you just hand me the blanket?

Claire: Maybe I should call my mom.

Henry: No, no, no. Don't call your mom, please. Just hand me the blanket and I'll leave.

Claire: What do you need the blanket for?

Henry: I'm a time traveler. I come from the future. And when I do, I don't get to bring my clothes.

Claire: There's no such thing as time travelers.

Henry: Yes, there is. In fact, you and I are friends in the future, when you're a lady.

Claire: Am I pretty?

Henry: Yes. Very.

Claire: Prove you're from the future.

Henry: Well, your name is Claire Abshire. Born May 24th, 1972. Your parents are Philip and Lucille.

Claire: So you know things. That doesn't prove you're from the future.

Henry: Okay. This weekend, your brother, Mark, who's a real pain in the ass...falls out of a tree and breaks his arm.

Claire: Yeah, but I won't know till then if you're telling the truth or not.

Henry: Well, if you hang around long enough, you'll see me disappear.

Claire: But you just got here.

Henry: I'll be back again. Lots of times. In fact...I'll be back next Tuesday at 4. And it'd be great if, when you come then, you could bring me some clothes. Some your dad won't miss. Nice to meet you.
