00:00I'd just settled into the couch with my snacks and my movie, when suddenly the doorbell rang.
00:10Flippity-flippin'-flamingo!
00:11Can't a woman have a moment of peace in her own house?
00:15Why is someone here at midnight?
00:17I was marching towards the door when I stopped short.
00:19Why is someone here at midnight?
00:21Uh, hello?
00:22Who is it?
00:23There was only silence.
00:25Are you a robber?
00:26Dude, I just took my kids to the dentist today, so I'm broke.
00:30Try your luck with the big house down the street!
00:32Again, no reply, but I could see a weird shadow against the door.
00:37Are you an alien who's accidentally landed on planet Earth?
00:40Run away while you still can!
00:41It's too late for the rest of us!
00:43Still, no answer, but I heard a muffled laugh.
00:47Look, I've been having a rough time lately, and I am so not in the mood for this.
00:52So I'm warning you, I'm coming out with an axe and I am not afraid to use it!
00:56I flung the door open and jumped back, half expecting to be attacked.
00:59But when the porch light fell on the face under the weird hat, I recognized someone
01:04I thought I'd never see again.
01:06Milo?
01:07Not a phone call or text for twelve years, and now you just show up at my door at midnight?
01:12Did someone die?
01:13Uh, hi.
01:14Long time no see.
01:15Yeah, here's the thing, Jen.
01:17Thousands of people across the globe will die soon if you and I don't travel back in
01:21time and fix a tiny mistake you made in high school.
01:24Can I come in?
01:25I was hoping this was the part I'd wake up and realize it was just a stupid dream that
01:30made no sense.
01:31Yeah, no such luck.
01:32Hi, I'm Jennifer, the oldest MC of My Story Animated.
01:37By the way, Mr. Director, I don't appreciate how everyone on set has been telling me I
01:41look very good for my age.
01:44That's something you'd say to someone in their 60s.
01:46I'm just a hot 35-year-old.
01:48Sorry, I think I'm catching something from one of my kids.
01:55Ugh, nasty buggers.
01:57Anyway, I'm old enough to be your mom, so y'all better show some respect and strap in
02:02for my story, because it's gonna be da bomb.
02:06Okay, no one says that anymore?
02:08Whatever.
02:09Now, before I continue, please like and subscribe to MSA.
02:12I'll give you a quick walkthrough of my past, it's kinda important.
02:16I was born on December 27, 1983, a cute lump of fat weighing 10 pounds, 8 ounces.
02:22I was an only kid, so my childhood was carefully documented by my adoring parents.
02:27Cute, cute, still cute, then yikes, puberty hit and that was just ugly, ugly, hella ugly.
02:36I had it all.
02:37The braces, the unibrow, the baby fat still holding on tight.
02:40I didn't think I'd recover from that phase, so I worked hard on being smart and funny.
02:45Then boom!
02:46I turned 16 and had a big crush on a boy.
02:49Lost the weight, lost the braces, and people started using a word for me that I hadn't
02:53heard before.
02:54Pretty.
02:55I was class valedictorian, voted most likely to succeed, and the girlfriend of the football
03:01team captain.
03:02Alex was an absolute dreamboat, you just had to see him in action once and you knew, this
03:08guy was gonna be a star.
03:10We dated all through university and got married after graduation, Alex's career was on the
03:14rise, I was about to start my PhD, life was peachy, blah blah blah, but then one day Alex
03:20had a terrible injury during a game, and soon after, the doctors told him he could never
03:25play professionally again.
03:27It was a huge blow, and with a kid on the way, I had to quit my PhD program and get
03:32a job as a high school science teacher.
03:35Alex was depressed and bedridden for months, but when he got back on his feet, he was even
03:40worse.
03:41Babe, I've got an amazing idea, we're opening a ramen place.
03:45We don't know the first thing about making ramen.
03:47I'm 1 8th Japanese, it's gotta be in my blood.
03:51It wasn't.
03:52We filed for bankruptcy 6 months later.
03:53I bought a flock of sheep, babe.
03:55It's a great investment, we'll double our money in 6 months.
03:59We didn't.
04:00Unless we're talking about losses, yeah, we doubled those.
04:03I'm growing mushrooms in the garage.
04:05I'm growing avocados in the garden.
04:07I'm investing in a video game for bored 70 year olds.
04:11I tried to be supportive, knowing that he'd lost his big dream career.
04:15But the debts were piling, the fights were becoming more frequent, and we were drifting
04:20further apart.
04:2110 years later, we decided to separate and see how we felt about it.
04:25But the one true joy of my life was becoming a mom to my daughter Stella, followed 5 years
04:30later by her twin brothers, David and Beckham.
04:33No matter what happened, this love I had for my kids was forever.
04:38So were sleepless nights, piles of laundry, cleaning, doctor visits, viruses, diapers,
04:43more piles of laundry, cleaning, homework, tantrums, crying, more crying, falling like
04:46a baby in the bathroom.
04:47Yeah, okay, the last one is me.
04:50Why are you telling me this morning that you need cupcakes for your entire class today?
04:53I put it on the fridge schedule a month ago, left sticky notes all over the house a week
04:58ago, and set a reminder on your watch for yesterday.
05:01Your brother stuck my watch in a jar of Nutella.
05:04David!
05:05Beckham!
05:06Why do you keep taking your clothes off?
05:07That's the opposite of getting dressed!
05:09I'll be the only kid who didn't get anything for the class picnic!
05:12No, sweetie, wait.
05:14Let's see what we got.
05:15Uh, here's a jar of peanut butter, and some cookies.
05:18Ew, no, those are stale.
05:20You want to take some prunes?
05:22They're great for constipation.
05:23Mom, I'll tell the teacher you forgot, it happens.
05:26Oh, no you won't!
05:27I know how judgy those teachers are.
05:30We're stopping at a bakery.
05:31Boys, I swear if you don't stop running this second, I'll call an elf who will call Santa
05:36and tell him not to get you any Christmas presents.
05:38You know no one else.
05:40Yeah, we don't believe you.
05:42I'm your mother, and mothers never lie to their children.
05:45Now get dressed before I call the goblin who eats twins for breakfast.
05:50Hey, lady, can you control your kids?
05:53One of them took my cookie.
05:55Oh, God, so sorry.
05:56I'll get you another one.
05:57A coffee, too.
05:58The other brat stuck his gross finger in it.
06:01Okay, sure.
06:02But you don't have to be so angry.
06:04They're just kids.
06:05Yeah, I'm angry at you.
06:07Clearly, you suck as a mom and didn't teach them any manners.
06:11Excuse me?
06:13You want to say that again to my face?
06:15Uh, did you think I said it to your butt the first time?
06:19Oh, you want a piece of me, buddy?
06:22Mom, please don't.
06:24You're crazy.
06:25I'm out of here.
06:26I need to pee.
06:27I need to pee, too.
06:28For the last time, you don't need to take your shoes off to pee.
06:32After we returned from the bathroom,
06:34I turned to the lady at the counter.
06:36How many cupcakes do you have here?
06:38Two dozen.
06:39I'll take them all, please.
06:41I can't sell them all to you.
06:43Why not?
06:44What if someone else comes around for a cupcake?
06:47What do you care if one person buys them or ten people do?
06:50You just want sales, right?
06:52No, I want to make people happy.
06:54Then go be a party clown in your free time.
06:57But right now, I need you to sell me those cupcakes.
07:00I'll pay you ten extra dollars.
07:02No.
07:03Gimme it!
07:04I jumped behind the counter and started taking out the cupcakes.
07:07The lady started wrestling with me and screaming for security.
07:11I pushed her, she pushed me back,
07:13and I went flying straight into a baker walking out of the kitchen
07:16with someone's wedding cake.
07:18I'll never forget that moment.
07:20Me, covered head to toe in white frosting,
07:23the salesperson still screaming,
07:25everyone in the cafe, including my children,
07:28looking absolutely terrified.
07:30And in the doorway stood Alex,
07:32looking as handsome as ever,
07:34holding hands with a leggy redhead
07:36who looked like she'd stepped out of a magazine.
07:39Mom, are you okay?
07:41Yes, sweetie.
07:42I'm fine.
07:43I'm not fine!
07:45I feel like I'm one of those hamsters on a wheel
07:47and the wheel never stops and I'm running and running
07:50but somehow I've gained weight.
07:52How did that happen?
07:54You had three kids, honey.
07:55And you're an amazing mom.
07:57No, I'm not.
07:59The twins are adorable, but they're maniacs.
08:02And Stella is so smart and I'm constantly disappointing her.
08:06She knew Alex was dating someone for months
08:08and she didn't tell me to protect my feelings.
08:11A ten-year-old shouldn't have to do that.
08:13How do you feel about Alex having a girlfriend?
08:16I know the marriage has long been over.
08:18I just wasn't expecting him to get over it so quickly, you know?
08:22I know.
08:23So, yeah.
08:24We got a divorce with shared custody of the kids.
08:27I became kind of friends with Cassie or Katie
08:30or whatever that dumb redhead's name is
08:32and life went on.
08:34Now it was Alex's turn to keep the kids overnight
08:37and I had big plans for myself
08:40which were rudely interrupted.
08:43You have white hair now.
08:44You have a bigger butt now.
08:46You checked out my butt?
08:48Don't sound so excited.
08:49I just made a logical guess.
08:51Milo.
08:52You want to tell me where you've been for 12 years?
08:55You just suddenly left town without so much as a goodbye?
08:58Oh, wait.
08:59What day was that?
09:00Yeah.
09:01My wedding day.
09:02And you were the best man.
09:04I told you.
09:05I had a brainwave related to my research.
09:07Also, you know I hate people and weddings
09:09and happiness in general.
09:11You left me a text
09:12and I haven't heard from you since.
09:14Why come and see me now?
09:16Because we have to travel back.
09:18Okay, sit down
09:19and I'll set up a PowerPoint presentation.
09:21Use your words
09:22and make them make sense.
09:23Okay, okay.
09:24So, do you remember what we were doing
09:26on the night of 15th December, 2000?
09:29Sometimes I'm in the shower
09:30and can't remember if I just shampooed my hair.
09:33So, no.
09:34Do you remember that you were a nosy person
09:36and you suspected something shady was happening
09:38in the abandoned warehouse in our town
09:40and you dragged me there one night to find out more?
09:42Oh, yeah.
09:43I remember that.
09:44And I was right.
09:46It was some super freaky science lab.
09:48But then we went back a week later
09:50and it was gone.
09:51Yeah.
09:52Have you heard about the Xenovirox virus?
09:54I recently read about some cases in the news.
09:57Soon, it'll be a lot more.
09:59All over the world.
10:00Apparently, the virus was created
10:02in that shady science lab
10:03by some people in government
10:04as biological warfare.
10:06What?
10:07No way!
10:08Do you remember that when we were in the lab
10:10you accidentally bumped into some things
10:12on a countertop?
10:13Did I?
10:14You knocked over a vial
10:15and the liquid in it
10:16got mixed with fluid
10:17in another beaker.
10:18That was the vaccine.
10:19Because of your mishap,
10:20the scientist working on it
10:22got the wrong result
10:23and he concluded
10:24that the vaccine was impossible to make.
10:26The project was shut down
10:27because it was too risky
10:29having a virus
10:30from which no one could be protected.
10:32So, it looks like I did a good thing?
10:34You'd think so.
10:35But there's no way
10:36to really destroy a virus.
10:38It was kept in a secure facility
10:40all these years.
10:41And I don't know how
10:42and when exactly
10:43but it escaped
10:44and it's spreading
10:45like wildfire now.
10:46And because of your accident,
10:48the vaccine for it
10:49was never made.
10:50Oh my god!
10:51Well,
10:52someone will make it now,
10:53won't they?
10:54Not fast enough.
10:55Jen, it's really serious
10:56and we gotta go back
10:57and fix this.
10:58What do you mean
10:59go back?
11:00Didn't I already mention
11:01the time travel thing?
11:02Yeah, so I stumbled upon
11:03a rip in the space-time continuum
11:05which helped me to discover
11:06the way to open portals
11:07whenever I want
11:08and travel to the past.
11:10That's what I've been working on
11:11for almost two decades now.
11:13Oh, no, no, no.
11:15Jennifer,
11:16please wake up
11:17from this terrible dream.
11:18Is it that bad
11:19meeting me after all this time?
11:21Yes,
11:22because not a single thing
11:23you've said
11:24has been good
11:25or made sense.
11:26How do you even know
11:27all this about the vaccine
11:28and the virus?
11:29Time travel.
11:30I just told you.
11:31You used to be
11:32a lot smarter, Jen.
11:34You actually expect me
11:35to believe
11:36you're a time traveler?
11:37If there's anyone
11:38who'll believe me,
11:39I expect it to be you.
11:40I looked into
11:41his sharp blue eyes
11:42and knew
11:43he wasn't kidding.
11:44Okay, okay.
11:45If you've traveled
11:46back in time,
11:47why didn't you just
11:48fix the problem yourself?
11:50Believe me,
11:51I tried.
11:52But I can't seem
11:53to do it alone
11:54and I can't ask anyone else.
11:55Come on,
11:56we gotta go now.
11:57I have this night
11:58to myself, Milo.
11:59And I don't want to be
12:00some hero
12:01and save the world.
12:02I just want to watch a movie
12:03and fall asleep
12:04five minutes after it starts
12:05and have pancakes
12:06in the morning.
12:07And no,
12:08I won't have to make
12:09three dozen pancakes
12:10or eat the pancakes
12:11or eat the cold ones.
12:13Fresh,
12:14hot pancakes
12:15just for me.
12:16And coffee
12:17and peace.
12:18Let me have this,
12:19please.
12:20Jen,
12:21everyone you love
12:22is at great risk.
12:23Do it for your kids.
12:24No,
12:25that's just
12:26emotional blackmail.
12:27Is it working?
12:28Yeah, fine.
12:29It's working.
12:30Let's go,
12:31you weirdo.
12:32You're gonna go
12:33like this?
12:34Yeah.
12:35What's wrong with this?
12:36Oh, nothing.
12:37You look lovely.
12:38Is that mustard
12:39or barf on your coat?
12:40Shut up.
12:41Put this hat on,
12:42please.
12:43Yay,
12:44I get a funky hat too.
12:45Next,
12:46Milo took out a cube,
12:47placed it on the ground
12:48and it sprang up
12:49into a tent.
12:50Hey,
12:51I need one of those
12:52collapsible things
12:53for camping with the kids.
12:54That's the astral tent.
12:56It's my time machine.
12:57Now,
12:58I just need a minute
12:59to set up
13:00the temporal destination.
13:01I'd followed Milo here
13:02curious to know
13:03what he was going on about.
13:05But it just hit me then.
13:07Milo was actually mental.
13:08He'd really lost it.
13:10Oh,
13:11you poor baby.
13:12Uh,
13:13what's going on?
13:14Nothing, sweetie.
13:15It's all okay.
13:17I'm here for you.
13:19But you need help.
13:20Professional help.
13:22Do you understand
13:23what I'm saying, Milo?
13:24No.
13:25Can you get your hands
13:26off my face?
13:27I hear there's
13:28really nice places now
13:29for people like you
13:31and you'll get the help
13:32you need
13:33and I'll come visit you.
13:34I promise.
13:35Are you talking about
13:36a mental institution?
13:38I'm not crazy.
13:40Of course not, sweetie.
13:41You're special.
13:43Cut it out.
13:44If you think I'm crazy,
13:45why did you come with me?
13:47I don't know, Milo.
13:48Maybe I just came along
13:49because I'm actually
13:50really happy to see you
13:51even though I've been
13:52pretending otherwise.
13:54And maybe
13:55a small part of me thought,
13:56hey,
13:57he's a genius.
13:58Maybe he really did
13:59invent time travel
14:00and you're in
14:01for an adventure, Jen,
14:02which would be a nice change
14:03from your mundane life.
14:05But you just pitched up
14:06a tent in a field
14:07and gave me
14:08a stupid hat
14:09and this is all
14:10so ridiculous.
14:12I'm going home.
14:13Just as I turned to leave,
14:14I heard a buzzing sound
14:15from behind me
14:16and I gasped.
14:18The tent was glowing.
14:20It makes that sound
14:21when it's warming up.
14:22You want to put
14:23that hat back on?
14:24Okay, then.
14:26As we stood outside the tent,
14:27I could feel my heart
14:28racing with excitement.
14:30Was this really happening?
14:32Before we go in,
14:33you've got to remember
14:34three rules of time travel.
14:35Number one
14:36and the most important,
14:37don't change anything
14:38in the past.
14:40We have no idea
14:41what happens
14:42when we pull out
14:43a single thread
14:44in the fabric of time.
14:45It can have a butterfly effect
14:46and change many outcomes,
14:47possibly for the worse.
14:49Aren't we going back
14:50to change something?
14:52We already know
14:53that has a really bad outcome,
14:54so we're going to risk it.
14:56Change nothing else, okay?
14:58Got it.
14:59Number two,
15:00you can't get recognized
15:01by anyone.
15:02Tell no one who you are
15:03under any circumstances.
15:05Done.
15:06Number three,
15:07uh,
15:08okay,
15:09I think I don't have a number.
15:10So just two important rules
15:11of time travel.
15:13Also, I gotta warn you,
15:14as we travel,
15:15you will experience nausea,
15:16headaches, dizziness,
15:17stomach cramps, palpitations,
15:18sweats,
15:19and feel like someone
15:20kicked you in the back.
15:21Sounds like nine months
15:22of pregnancy.
15:23Been there, done that.
15:24Okay, then.
15:25You ready?
15:26This is insane.
15:27Yes, yes, okay.
15:28I'm ready.
15:29It's good to see you too.
15:31Now,
15:32one,
15:33two,
15:34three,
15:35go.
