Does it matter?
You have a watch.
It's working?
Yes, but...
So why turn?
Why look at that clock, when the logical thing would be simply to look at your watch on your way to the other wing?
Is it possible you saw Mr.
Chambers coming this way across the property, and that you watched him walk that way, and saw the clock after, on your way back?
Is it possible he walked not into the woods in that direction, to the west, but over here, to the east?

Um... Me and Richard, the night before.
Patagonia-- that was the, the last thing I said to him.
See, we had a deal, after a monumental drunken row in Patagonia, that if just one of us just ever said that word, then we promised each other that, you know, we'd just let it go, we'd let it all go.
(sighs) Never worked.
And we would, you know, get over it, but in the moment, we could never really let it go.
You asked in the forest if, if I had children.
I have a son.
He's in prison.
I never even knew of him until last year.
And Sara.
My daughter Sara, she died.
Four months ago.
I am so sorry.
No, I do not want your sympathy, or deserve it.
I, I carry her death.
My daughter Laura died two years ago.
Sometimes I wake up and it's as if it's just happened.
You may not want my sympathy, Mr. Baptiste, but you have it.
I want you to know that, to me, this is not some kind of sport.
The work I do, it means something.
It means everything.
Without it, I... We will find out what has happened to your children.
I promise.
Don't make promises.
Patagonia taught me that.
(cellphone vibrating) (train station announcer speaking, Will clicking) Will?
Will!
Jesus, Will, where are you?
Will... EMMA: Where are you?
(Will clicks) (grunts) (Will clicks on speaker) Will, is that you?
Just answer me.
(announcement in background, Will clicks) EMMA (voiceover): We've got to call the police because they can track the call, can't they?
JULIEN: He, he was in a train station.
Did you hear the announcement?
EMMA (voiceover): No, but they can, they can track the call.
JULIEN: Your son is at a train station right now.
That announcement-- what was it saying?
Think!
EMMA: Berlin... Hamburg.
Well, that's the Hungaria line.
That goes from Nyugati.
Perhaps somebody saw him.
Try there.

Why are you following me?
I am trying to help the British ambassador find her children, Alex and Will Chambers.
You were there when they went missing.
You don't understand.
You don't have any idea.
(yelps softly) Stay away, old man.
(gasps) (rain pelting) You know better than anyone that I no longer work.
I no longer do much of anything.
I'm sorry to say, but you've wasted your journey.
A lot has changed since I last saw you, but I haven't.
I feel as if I've never left the moment that Alex died.
That I watched my son...
I feel frozen in that moment in time.
I've allowed it to define me.
I suppose I've become a fossil.
Because they tell us who we are, don't they?
Fossils.
I relive it every day.
You, me, and those demons in the daylight.
After I, uh, I got used to this thing, I didn't really have anything, not really.
I had no job.
No point.
So every week, I went to visit Alex's grave, every Monday morning.
Thinking about where his brother might be.
So one morning, I went there, and there were fresh flowers left there.
Not flowers that I'd left.
So I went back every day, day after day, until f... finally...
I discovered who left the flowers.
It's him.
