Will vs. The Future Page #3

---

or did you just

make it up?

I made it up.

I get all my jokes

from comedians,

and I change

the specifics

to sound like

it came from me.

Sounds like a good plan.

We'll see.

- [banging]

- Will! Hey, you in there!

Open up!

Where were you today?

Open up!

Oh, hey.

Did anyone see you

come here?

Were you followed?

I know how to

lose a tail.

What happened to you?

Did you ditch school?

You never do that.

And what's that?

It's the closest thing

I could find to a weapon.

There's literally

a baseball bat right there.

[sighs]

Dude, are you okay?

No. You know that girl

we met this morning?

I get it.

You made the hall passes

and you realized

you don't need me.

I'm just your

paper girl.

You took my idea,

and now you and this new girl

are running with it--

- Hailey, listen--

- No, you listen.

You betrayed me.

But you know what?

I respect you for it.

[cell phone buzzing]

Oh. My mom

keeps texting me

'cause I'm supposed to

check on Mr. Hamilton.

Your neighbor

smells like tuna fish.

Like really, really

good tuna fish.

Find out

what brand he gets.

Actually, could you

go over to his house?

This girl,

she could be out there.

I'm gonna get a snack.

- You got this.

- I don't got this!

I believe in you.

[knocking]

- Mr. Hamilton.

- Heya, champ.

I-- I'm just

checking in.

Okay, it's just

I only have a minute.

Mr. Hamilton?

What is this?

- Hello, Will.

- Ahh!

[panting]

Do what you want to me,

but please let

Mr. Hamilton go.

He has nothing to do

with this.

Uh, Hamilton works for us.

He's the advance team.

What?

You're really bad at

identifying robots, aren't you?

He only says

three phrases.

"Heya, champ,"

"You're telling me,"

and, "Uh-huh."

Uh-huh.

But that's impossible.

We've had so many

great talks.

- Mr. Hamilton.

- Heya, champ.

So, it looks like my mom

had to get another job

so we can afford to stay

in the school district.

Uh-huh.

And I just feel bad.

She's giving up so much.

You're telling me.

You had to give up a lot

in your life, too?

Heya, champ.

You're right.

I am a champ.

I just need to

focus on school,

and I'll get a job

and be successful,

and Mom won't have to worry

about anything anymore.

I'll do it.

I will.

Thanks, Mr. Hamilton.

Uh-huh.

Wow.

We talked all the time.

I invited him to my birthday party.

I don't think you're gonna

make that party.

Let's try this again.

- [groaning]

- [electricity crackling]

Ahh! Mr. Hamilton, help,

she's getting electrocuted.

Heya, champ.

[grunting]

[wheezing]

You're okay.

Why would you do that?

You saved the life of

someone who was sent to destroy you?

I mean, when you say it like that

it does sound a little dumb,
