Dr. Sam Beckett : Have you ever been this scared before?
Stevie Ellroy : Yeah, I guess. When my mom was in the hospital for an operation, I was afraid she might die.
Dr. Sam Beckett : If you look back on that time now, you can see that you were worried about something bad that didn't happen, right?
Stevie Ellroy : Yeah.
Dr. Sam Beckett : Well, let's... let's just pretend that you can travel into the future, and look back on this time right now. Now, you'll see that the Russians never hurt you or your family. And you'll see that you were spending a lot of your time and energy being afraid of something bad that never happened.
Stevie Ellroy : So being afraid is stupid?
Dr. Sam Beckett : No. No. There's nothing wrong with being afraid. Sometimes, it just doesn't do you any good. So, come on, what do you say? Let's pretend that we've traveled into the future. And everything back here is OK. And then you're not scared anymore.
Stevie Ellroy : OK.
