This is the preface. The chapter after is when things get really different. Let me know what you think.

Everything that happened 30 years ago built up to this very moment. While Marty never gave the exact details, Emmett knew that they were going to be very dear friends. Finally, the night that would determine his experiment would work (having already seeing it work before), had arrived. Albeit, there were some strange details he noticed about the lead up to this day.

While he knew piecing back together and reading that letter could inadvertently change all the work put into keeping the timeline intact, he figured, *what the hell*. He did note that there were those few remarks Marty had mentioned about his father never getting the confidence he had, but figured it was maybe details of his parents` life he didn't know.

He also noted that the current Marty, the not-yet-time-traveled Marty, he met had actually asked about Calvin Klein. Emmett, while only lightly explaining the story of Calvin Klein with leaving as much details out as possible, had possibly assumed that this may be how the Grandfather paradox resolves itself.

Cordless Phone beeps:

"Hello?"

"You didn't fall asleep, did you?"

"No, doc, Im up, Im up!"

"Uh huh. Listen, I forgot my video camera. Could you stop by my place and pick it up on your way to the mall?"

"Sure thing, Doc!"

*click*

Emmett really put a little extra attention to detail after Marty's second visit in the past to back to the old west, he started to consider as he staged everything as detailed as he could to match the footage.

Considering all the problems the DeLorean kept having from what he heard, he had decided to make sure it didn't have too much engine trouble. Perhaps it would make for a smoother time loop, he concluded.

Marty, attempting to be careful, sneaked out of his house, picking up the Walkman, and camera while making his way there. He decided not to take his Supra. The car just makes too much noise to make a sneaky exit.

Emmett had been rehearsing the scene just as he had remembered it from the footage of himself he had seen, so he tried everything he could to replicate it, at least up until where it cuts off, which is when the real fireworks were to start, so to speak.

Saturday, October 26th, 1985

1:15 A.M.

Lone Pines Mall

Marty arrived at the Lone Pines Mall, to see the big Step-Van, with a drop down tailgate ramp in the middle of the lot.

*DR. E. BROWN ENTERPRISES - 9am - 5pm SCIENTIFIC SERVICES* written on the side.

Marty approached, reluctantly, until he saw Einstein happily ready to greet him.

"Einstein! How are ya boy! Where's the Doc?"

A loud hissing engine sound like a mechanical snake revved out of the rear truck doors. A steel DeLorean drove out of, with a nice silver finish. Modified Coils, and wicked units on the rear engine. Emmett was very careful not to miss replicating it, even if it did look a bit flashy.

Marty, baffled at the stylishness of the car, looks at the DeLorean pull up to him. The gull wing door opens up, swifting a bit of wind up his nose.

*That's one helluva Science experiment* Marty thought.

Emmett, stepping out in a white radiation suit, took his hood off, letting his pulled up hair trickle down, while his wild and full of life eyes look at Marty with expected excitement to finally get the experiment he has been waiting 30 years for.

"Good evening, Marty! Welcome to my latest experiment. This is it, the big one! I have been waiting for this most of my life!" The amount of energy coming out of Emmett was radiating. Infectious even. One could even say he could be using the radiation suit to keep other people safe from himself.

"It's a Delorean! But... What'd you do to it other than the fancy spoilers? And what's with the Devo suit?" Marty was beginning to think Doc was trying to make some race car. But out of DeLorean of all things?

"Bear with me, Marty, once we start rolling, all of your questions will be answered. Start filming and we can get started." Emmett was giddy, but nervous. This has to go as planned. The Time-space continuum, even the universe depends on this critical moment.

Marty raised the camera. Emmett cleared his throat, and addressed the camera. Every single line, to the t, came out of his mouth to match the footage he had saw.

...

"-November 5, 1955..." - Emmett remembered this date. This was the day that everything changed. When Marty goes back, and reinforces that one of his inventions would finally work.

"What happened then?" Marty said.

"That was the day I invented time travel. I remember it vividly: I was standing on the edge of my toilet, hanging a clock. The porcelain was wet; I slipped and hit my head on the sink, and when I came to, I had a revelation, a vision, a picture in my head. A picture of this" and just then, he pointed to the flux capacitor.

"Flux capacitor, huh? Hey, that's around the time my parents met that Calvin, fella, right?" - exclaimed Marty.

"That's right, Marty..." Emmett said a bit nervously. Trying to change the focus of the subject "It's taken me almost 30 years and my entire family fortune to fulfill the vision of that day.. Amazing. Things have certainly changed. This all used to be farmland here."

"This is heavy duty stuff, doc. What's it run on? Unleaded?" Marty said, while carefully looking at the car's nice silvery hood.

"Ah, unfortunately no. It requires something with a bit more of a punch." - Emmett was starting to go off script, but at this point he was thinking of what was going to happen next. He pulled out the container with purple radioactivity symbols on it.

The rest ran back on script, as he tried to make sure he specified every detail. He could not miss it for his past self to hear it, so that Marty could get back safely.

"What is it, Einie?" Emmett said. He knew what was coming. This was the moment he was waiting for.

"Run for it, Marty!"

Emmett was on a 30 year rehearsal, and it's finally showtime.
