00:00 I wish it had been me that shot Barney.

00:02 I would have if you'd asked me, Sheila.

00:05 Dear William, you've had a bad year too, haven't you? A terrible year.

00:11 It hasn't been good.

00:13 I wish we could live it over again.

00:16 If we only could.

00:17 I wouldn't make the same mistakes.

00:20 For one thing, I wouldn't go to London. Then Barney would never meet Paula.

00:26 This whole horrible thing could have been avoided just by not going to London a year ago.

00:31 You didn't know that, Sheila.

00:33 But I do now.

00:36 It's like a play.

00:38 We're out of town trying it out and we find the third act is wrong.

00:42 So it's rewritten, all different.

00:44 We play it over again and it's right, it's fine.

00:48 That's what I'd like to do with the year I've just lived.

00:51 Rewrite it, play it over again.

00:55 But I can't, it's too late.

00:57 Yes, Sheila, it's too late.

00:59 People do live things over.

01:03 Haven't you ever entered a strange room, William, and felt that you'd been there before?

01:08 You knew it was impossible, yet everything in the room looked familiar.

01:13 Hasn't that ever happened to you, William?

01:16 William?

01:19 William, where are you?

01:22 Where are you?

01:23 Where are you?

01:29 William won't answer.

01:37 William is gone.

01:39 He was there just a moment ago.

01:42 But in that moment, time stopped for Sheila.

01:47 Time ran backwards.

01:51 She made a wish.

01:52 A tragic one at a magic time.

01:55 When the new year was beginning.

01:58 And now that wish is coming true.

02:01 She's going to live the old year all over again.

02:05 Sheila doesn't know that.

02:08 Not yet.

02:10 But she will, very soon.

02:14 very soon.
