  • This is it.

  • DOC ON TV: Never mind that now.

  • DOC: Why, that's me! Look at me!

  • - I'm an old man! - I'm Dr. Emmett Brown.

  • I'm in the Twin Pines Mall parking lot.

  • Thank God, I've still got my hair.

  • What's this thing I'm wearing?

  • This is a radiation suit.

  • Radiation suit?

  • Of course. 'Cause of all the fallout from the atomic wars.

  • This is truly amazing.

  • A portable television studio.

  • No wonder your president has to be an actor. He has to look good on TV.

  • MARTY: This is the part coming up.

  • This sucker's electrical but I need a nuclear reaction to generate the 1.21 gigawatts...

  • What did I just say?

  • ... this sucker's electrical, but I need a nuclear reaction...

  • ...to generate the 1.21 gigawatts of... - 1.21 gigawatts!

  • 1.21 gigawatts.

  • DOC: Great Scott!

  • What the hell is a gigawatt?

  • How could I have been so careless?

  • 1.21 gigawatts!

  • Tom, how am I going to generate that kind of power?

  • It can't be done, can it?

  • MARTY: Doc, look. All we need is a little plutonium.

  • DOC: I'm sure that in 1985 plutonium is available in every corner drugstore...

  • ...but in 1955, it's a little hard to come by.

  • Marty, I'm sorry, but I'm afraid you're stuck here.

  • Doc, stuck here? I can't be stuck here.

  • I got a life in 1985.

  • - I got a girl. - Is she pretty?

  • Doc, she's beautiful.

  • She's crazy about me. Look at this.

  • Look what she wrote here.

  • That says it all.

  • Doc, you're my only hope.

  • Marty, I'm sorry, but the only power source capable of generating...

  • ...1.21 gigawatts of electricity is a bolt of lightning.

  • MARTY: What did you say? DOC: A bolt of lightning.

  • Unfortunately, you never know when or where it's ever going to strike.

  • We do now.

  • This is it!

  • This is the answer.

  • It says here that a bolt of lightning...

  • ...is going to strike the clock tower at 10:04 p.m. Next Saturday night!

  • If we could somehow harness this lightning...

  • ...channel it into the flux capacitor...

  • ... it just might work.

  • Next Saturday night we're sending you back to the future!

  • All right. Saturday's good.

This is it.
