Night in a cramped house: Julian and his companion find only one adult blanket; after checking the children's too-small cover they argue over who sleeps where. They wake to disbelief—yesterday negotiating million-dollar contracts in modern times, today farming in an ancient village—so they resolve not to overthink and make the best of it. They trust their skills can help them thrive in any era. The companion admits they were a married couple in name and that now they only have each other, then snaps, "You fool," leaving their pact and next move unsettled.
