Panel 1: Daniel in the Now looks out in shock. Behind him plays a flashhback to a sunny day, where Daniel stood outside a Chinese restaurant. A sign on the restaurant's door reads, "OPEN NEW YEAR'S DAY." The caption reads, "THEN."

Panel 2: Daniel checks his watch. He's wearing his same winter coat, but this time has his glasses on, and has a red scarf wrapped around his neck.

Panel 3: Daniel sighs, his breath forming fog in the cold air.

Panel 4: Daniel puts his hands in his pockets as he begins to walk away. Behind him, a voice calls, "You waiting for a William?"

Panel 5: Daniel glances over his shoulder. A man in an expensive Burberry scarf, tan peacoat, and leather gloves waves casually at him. He's the same man that was seen leaving Daniel's room in the opening scene. The man smiles, "Thought so. Sorry about the time. I'm William."
