I'm watching on a screen.

First,

I see brother Daniel dead.

I see him dead.

As of yet, investigators

do not have any leads...

And then he walks

out of a building.

Mr. nightingale

was found by a dock worker

at six A.M. today,

having apparently died

of internal injuries...

What's happening here?

How does someone become dead

and then become alive again?

Brother Daniel needs my help.

Everyone thought it was you.

Stabbed in the navel.

Hey!

It's all rhythmical. Why don't

you go get a job, you freak.

Come on, I had a job once.

I did not like it.

Is this a good move for you?

Or a bad move for you?

Is this a good move for you

or bad move for you?

I'll take winner.

That would be me.

Who's he? I don't like

the cut of his suit.

Yes, well, I told him as much.

You think you know a person,

and then he goes

and pulls a stunt like that.

I understand.

Okay. The thing was...

Stop! Wait!

I'm sorry, do I know you?

Who are you?

You look just like me.

You gotta be kidding me.

Brother Daniel needs my help.

To help brother Daniel,

I have to get to Fyodor wax.

I don't know where he is,

but then I remember this tape.

Years ago Fyodor sent me a tape.

What's on the tape?

Well, the tape is information.

Does it just play automatically?

Of course it doesn't play

automatically.

It just makes sound

because someone wants

to make it make sound.

Who's the someone?

It's Fyodor.

He used to play the piano.

Those must be Fyodor's hands.

They have to be.

In the background

there's a little coaster,

and on that coaster,

if you stop the tape

it says,

"the hotel Babylon."

Is he talking to me?

Is he asking me something?

Is he saying to me,

"I want you to come to me.

So that you, when you get

to me, will talk to me

or hear some more information

from me, for you?"

I don't know.

To help brother Daniel,

I have to get to Fyodor wax.

I think this is

a message for me.

Piano. Piano.

What he really means is,

"come get me,

you f***ing lunatic."

...pleasant experience,

all in all.

I'm sorry, do I know you?

What if you were able to go back

and replay the same way

you rewind a film

to see a part that you wanted

to see again all over again?

What if time

could work that way?

What if time could work

in the way

that you could go back in time

and find that one person,

that one person who was

the one that got away,

or the one

that you got away from,

and you could say to them,

"I know what I did wrong.

Do you know what you did wrong?

Can we agree

on what we did wrong?"

I think back to things

that have come before

and I wonder what makes then

so different than now?

Because if I had the ability
