"When we face our deepest fears, our true courage come out"
---
Maddie, Five, Freddy, Diego and Lila had tied Elliott to a chair and put something in his mouth so he couldn't speak while Lila was polishing his toenails with green nail polish.
Diego was sitting on the kitchen counter with his head leaned back against the cabinet while Freddy was standing next to him with his left hand close to his mouth, and Maddie was standing on the other side of the projector with Five standing on her right side as they were all staring at the projection screen that they had put up.
Five, Maddie and Freddy was really focus watching the tape. They were focus on the smallest little things on the tape, to make sure that they didn't miss anything.
"Is it on?" a older woman asked over the tape "I don't know" a older man said "What do you mean? There's an 'on' button. Just--" the old woman said "There's something over...that jigga-ma-thing, whatever. I hit the jigga-ma-thing" the man said "Okay, well, just--Give it to me. I know how to do this" the woman said "All right, here" the man said and the man gave the woman the camera, "Here. Hurry up" the man said "Okay, all right, let's see...." the woman said.
"They're so cute. I love old couples. I'm always so proud of them for not murdering each other" Lila said and Diego turned his head to look at Five "Why are we watching this?" he asked "Shush" Five said "Yeah, I'm...Dan Frankel. And..." "I'm Edna Frankel" the woman said, cutting the man off "...Edna Frankel. We are in Dallas, Texas, to see the president. Today's date is November 22, 1963" Dan said and Diego turned his head to look at the screen.
"Well, that's six days from now" Lila said "Holy shit. This is it. The grassy knoll. Kennedy's about to get shot" Diego said before he looked at Five "How do you have this?" he asked "Hazel died to get me this footage. It must be the key to stopping doomsday" Five said "Hazel?" Diego asked "Long story" Five said "What's doomsday?" Lila asked "Longer story" Maddie said.
"What exactly did he say to you?" Diego asked "Well, he was killed before he could explain. But whatever he wanted us to see, it's on this film" Five said.
"This is very exciting" Dan said but then Maddie and the others heard the sound of gunshots on the tape and people started screaming "Oh, my God!" Dan said "Oswald" Diego said "The president" Dan said as the camera started moving around while the screams continued and Edna dropped the camera on the ground.
"Oh, no" Five said before he took a step back and started rewinding the tape a little bit causing the film to make a whirring noise.
"There" Freddy and Five said before Five stopped it at a certain point. He then rolled the projector a bit away from the screen so only some certain amount of the tape was on the screen causing the picture to get bigger.
