Chapter 10: Showdown (Asking for Recommendation Votes)
Even though David had doubts, he still respected Roland's choice.
After witnessing Roland wipe out all the meals, David took the other party back to the Universal set.
Picking up the Olsen sisters, who had already finished the play, the group hurried home, and after dinner, Roland made an OK gesture to David, and then went home, washed and went to sleep.
When he was awakened by that demonic voice again, the dream that remained in his mind had proven everything.
After washing, I pushed open the door and went straight to Olsen's house.
The knocking on the door disturbed the dream, and when the sleepy Olson couple appeared in front of Roland with a bewildered face, the puzzled voice also appeared, "Roland, what's wrong?" Why did you wake up so early today? β
"Because Ashley and Mary are going to the crew to film today, they have to arrive on the set at 10 o'clock in the morning." Roland replied casually.
βWhatοΌβ David frowned, how could he not know about this?
βOh my GodοΌ I forgot about it! Ganetti's eyes widened and she quickly turned around.
The different performances of the couple proved that what James said yesterday was true, and as she left, Roland, who had already made up his mind, continued to say to David: "Uncle David, I suggest you go take a shower first, at about seven o'clock, a newspaper delivery car will stop at the gate of the yard in a drifting way, the postman who delivered the newspaper is a black man, if you ask him why he is late, he will tell you that the car at the headquarters is late today, so it is late." β
"Uncle David, please trust me."
"If you don't believe me, think about the consequences of you letting me live in your own home."
Although David didn't understand what kind of nerves Roland was making, the decision to let Roland live in his own home was made by him, and of course he understood the weight of this sentence.
Holding back the doubts in his heart, he carefully looked at Roland, and then frowned and walked back to the bedroom.
Shower, brush his teeth, tidy up, when he stepped on the point, and appeared in the courtyard with Roland, the sudden rush of the car with the piercing braking startled him, recalling Roland's words, he asked the postman the reason for being late, and the other party's explanation was exactly the same as what Roland said.
Looking at the taillights that were fading away, David blew his nose, "Roland, how do you know that Ashley and Mary are going to film today?" Do you know that today's newspaper delivery truck will be late? What's going on here? β
"Not only did I know that they were going to film, and the mail truck would be late, but I also knew that Aunt Garneti would put oranges and cashews in today's green milkshake, and I also knew that at the beginning of last month, Aunt Garnetty told me about the audition, which was actually today, and not only that, but it was also a film project, and the director of the project, Chris Columbus, and the producer of the project, John Hughes, had a total of 200 auditions, and although they needed children with no acting experience, you and Aunt Garneti both thought I wouldn't succeed." Roland raised his head, looked at David with a smile, and recited the prepared words in one breath.
Although he was sunny enough, David felt a chill down his spine.
If the Olsen sisters are going to film, it is an accident that Garnetty once mentioned, and it happened to be remembered by Roland, then the mail car and the audition cannot be explained by accidents, the former is not controllable, and the latter is only known to David and Garnetty.
Taking a deep breath, David, who had pinched the newspaper out of fear in his heart, tilted his head, "You go to the study and wait for me." β
Hearing this, Roland turned around and left without hesitation.
After entering the study and sitting down for a while, David, who had already verified the breakfast ingredients from his wife, also appeared.
He squatted down and looked at the child in front of him seriously.
Facing the anatomical eyes, Roland not only did not have a weak heart, but shrugged his shoulders.
"You...... Like Dr. Manhattan, have the ability to see the future? β
Even though he knew that the idea in his head was absurd, David still asked.
Dr. Manhattan?
The blue-skinned bald head who killed the real hero Rorschach?
Now that there is a showdown, it is natural that the words are not shocking, "I still know the general future." Of course, my current situation is actually similar to "Seventy Years Back in Time", except that the college student Richard is going back in time and has a beautiful love story with the female star Elise, and I am living a month 1 repeatedly, can you understand what I mean? β
Since "Groundhog Day" has not yet been released, Roland can't find good film and television works to list at all, and he can only use vague descriptions to let David understand how bad he is in his current situation.
"Probably." David's pupils contracted suddenly, although everything Roland said had been verified, he still didn't believe Roland, "Since you can see the future, then tell me, what will we be like in the future?" β
Americans, very superstitious.
No matter what kind of thinking it is, there are people who believe in it and follow it.
In 1944, because of the progress of science, the telegraph appeared, but the first words that the Americans preached by the telegraph were the hymns of the Bible, "What great things God has done for him!" β
Yes, they regard scientific progress as a miracle of God.
Other than that, the flat said these words, and that's more.
James's little brother is a loyal believer in the Flat Theory, and after he publicly apologized for his behavior because of the pressure of public opinion, Uncle Pi, who was thirty-five seconds and thirteen knives, even jumped out to accuse him of deviating from his faith.
When faced with a choice, the Americans often made their decisions in a superstitious way.
The same is clearly true of David now.
Feeling David's gaze, Roland pursed his lips, he knew that he couldn't escape this experience, "You and Aunt Garneti will divorce in three years, James and them, all of them were sentenced to Aunt Garneti, this matter did not affect Ashley and Mary, they are still making TV, movies, making records, selling clothes, they will be the most successful child stars in Hollywood, when they become adults, they have no acting talent, they change careers to design, the company has a good turnover, and Elizabeth has always followed behind their butts, officially entered the circle after becoming an adult, although he didn't win an award, and the box office was not too hard, but his fame was okay......"
With straight eyes, Roland was a little hairy.
David, who listened carefully, tried to find a logical contradiction in Roland's words, butβ
He failed.
Although he really wanted to classify everything Roland said as nonsense and insaneness, the word divorce made him believe everything, because - now he and Garneti have a deep contradiction.
The two daughters went out to film, which was an extremely humiliating act for David.
Their family is not short of money, and they don't need their young daughter to show up at all.
In his opinion, those salaries are not as important as his daughter's childhood.
He only hopes that his daughter can grow up healthy and happy, as for filming and becoming famous?
If Ashley and Mary liked it, of course he supported it, and if they didn't, why force them?
Every time the crew wants to film, David gets up in the morning and sees his daughter who is in trouble.
At that time, he was very upset.
As for Hollywood's most successful child star?
Hehe......
If they are really willing to film, then why did they switch careers to design?
Chaotic and complicated thoughts flashed quickly in David's mind.
"Well, Roland, is that why you've changed all of a sudden?"
"From the time your parents died?"
"It's because ...... Do you know everything? β
David had already believed Roland's words, and of course, he couldn't believe it.
"If you know everything, why are you telling me?"
"Is it because you've been living the first of January repeatedly?"
"Can you keep all the memories and we don't?"
David is not a fool and will naturally draw inferences.
With a slight turn in his mind, he guessed Roland's situation at the moment, and it was eight or nine that was not far from ten.
This behavior also made Roland breathe a sigh of relief.
If it would take David half a day just to get him to trust him, then David would not be able to help him at all.
While the time loop gives him infinite time, others will rewind and reset.
How to make others trust you in a short period of time is the most troublesome thing.
"yes, that's it."
"The reason why I am looking for you is also to hope that you can help me get out of this time loop."
Now that David had accepted his explanation, Roland was not polite, and Zhangkou came.
"I've spoken to you more than thirty times in the time loop, and the last time, yesterday for me, we've found the key to leaving the time loop."
"I, I have to get the audition you gave me."
"Otherwise, I'll be locked up here forever."
