- I'm Xavier. With an "X." - Your life is so much fun.
- Got to live life while I can. - What does that mean?
Humankind only has eight months
- and 12 days left on Earth. - You're serious?
Yeah, the apocalypse is, um, nigh.
(Sirens blaring)
This is my apocalyst.
This is every last thing
I want to do before things go kaput.
(Screaming)
You in?
Previously on No Tomorrow...
XAVIER: You think I'm nuts about asteroid WX 2000 354.
There's gonna be an impact.
EVIE: If this is all true,
why aren't you telling people?
Trust me, I've tried. I've called everyone.
I will require your assistance
to win his affections.

Oh, he's just so fun. Crazy fun!
It's like, in the last couple weeks,
I feel like my whole world is opening up, you know?
How was your weekend?
No flaming arrows, but I did spend five hours
making giant bubbles in the plaza.
- Five hours? - I did 'shrooms,
and I just couldn't bring myself to leave.
Making bubbles on 'shrooms.
Maybe we should put that on the list.
- What list? - Oh, well,
Xavier has a list of all the things he wants to do before...
You know, he's just... he's just super aware
of the passage of time, and I figure
anything that makes you live every day to the fullest
has got to be a good thing, right?
So when are we gonna meet
this extremely time-conscious guy?
Maybe tomorrow? We could do birthday drinks for you.
That sounds fun.
Hello.
For your new chair.
Oh!
Oh...
You... you shouldn't have.
And yet I did.
Try it out.
Okay. Uh...
Sit down and try this.
(Pained groan)
Oh, the fan and the light.
I trust the cup holder is of
sufficient diameter for a man of your thirst.
Mm-hmm.
(Snaps fingers)
The chair gifts are no longer working.
Oh... shoot.
How else am I supposed to express my affection
to an administrative assistant
under the confines of such restrictive HR guidelines?
You just have to have faith that eventually
your attentiveness will pay off, somehow.
Well, I did order him a graphite foot rest.
Feet are often the most ignored appendage
in an office setting.
- Oh? - Maybe that'll push him over the edge.
One more thing. We have a problem.
A quality-control problem.
Your problem.
EVIE: Someone here is
screwing up orders.
Wrong things going in the wrong boxes.
Deirdre wants me to find out who it is and fire them.
So I'm thinking of setting up a security camera.
Uh-uh! Veto!
I do not support a surveillance state.
Why? Because you have something to hide?
No. Because as a union rep, it is my duty to protect
the rights and privacy of my coworkers.
(Sighs) Fine.
Well, just do me a favor and keep your eyes peeled.
I'm gonna go get my sleuth on.
Go get 'em, Inspector Gidget.
T-Bone is still hung up on her.
Dude is spiraling.

Hello, Darkness.

HANK: What's up, T-Rex?
Can you place an order for me?
Just do it online.
I can't. My computer...
is too far away.
Fine. What do you want?
Every book you have on writer's block.
All righty.
And four bottles of chardonnay.
And an electric wine opener.
And a fresh linen-scented candle.
Seriously?
Don't judge me; I'm very sad.
T-Bone has lost his way.
EVIE: It's a left at the light and then your second right.
The Seattle Astronomy Center.
So what's the plan for your birthday?
- Well, I don't have one. - What?
Yeah, I'm trying to take a page out of your book
and just live in the moment.
You can't decide, can you?
Sure can't. And I'll be 31, so I was thinking
try every single flavor of ice cream at 31 Licks.
- That seems... - Or have a food fight,
a water-balloon fight or a pie fight...
some sort of weird fight, I don't know.
Or a New Orleans-style "second line".
Maybe fireworks, petting zoo...
Am I too old for that though?
- It's quite the list. - Well, I think some of
your "what the fig" attitude
is rubbing off on me.
This year, I just want it to be crazy fun.
- Oh, and Kareema wants to... - (Tires screech)
Whoa! What the fig?!
Sorry. What?
What? So you're just gonna leave it here?
Come on, the reading's already started!
Okay, you're just gonna leave it here.
So, when you look up at the sky tonight...
- (Whispers): Can you move over, please? - FIELDS: please ask yourself,
what do I really see,
and what is happening beyond that?
This is the most amazing opportunity.
Tyra DeNeil Fields is the most popular astrophysicist
in the world, and she's an expert
at translating science for laypeople.
She's just the sort of person
who could not only validate my theory,
but alert the general public.
FIELDS: ... are what continue to push us forward...
I, um... I thought we were just here to listen to her read.
People need to know the truth, Evie.
Xavier, you're not actually gonna do...
FIELDS: Thank you all for coming tonight.
And now, if you have any questions...
XAVIER: Professor?
Yeah, Ty... Profess...
Can I just ask one question?
No, no. Not you again.
- No, no, no. - Please?
- Not you again. - I just...
- No, no, no! - What are you doing?
Wh-What are you doing?
Guys, guys. Hey, hey, guys!
This is... this is really important, all right?
This is about the asteroid!
It's about the ast...
(Taser crackling, Xavier grunting)
Oh, my gosh!
Are you okay?
Relax, Evie, this isn't the first time I've been Tased.
I-It isn't?
_
Ah... sweet freedom!
- Are you okay? - Yeah, fine.
A little hungry.
Got a court date I can move to a little bit later.
Wait, so you're just totally unfazed
by this whole... rigmarole.
- "Rigmarole"? - Yeah.
I like that you really thought about
your word choice there, and then you went with "rigmarole".
Well, I guess I was looking for a nicer way to say
"Kind of weird how you made a huge scene,
got Tased, arrested and jailed!"
If making a huge scene spreads the word
to even one more person, it's worth it.
I thought the two of us were just going
to a fun book reading, okay?
The whole thing just made you look...
well, nuts, honestly.
I don't care how it made me look.
People have got to know the truth
so they can change their lives.
Professor Fields is only in town for two more days.
I've got to get my research to her another way.
EVIE: Hank, I need a favor.
What's up, Evie?
Can you hop on the...
the Dark Web, or whatever,
and see what you can dig up on Xavier?
Sure. Why?
You know how I've been telling you how crazy fun he is?
- Yeah. - I'm starting to worry
he might just be crazy... crazy.
Oh. I dated a girl once who was crazy crazy.
She wanted me to put honey all over my...
Never mind.
You know, it's not... not relevant.
He's great, mostly.
It's just, you know, if he's...
if he's really, truly out of his mind,
I don't think I should be with him.
Stand back, Evie; I'm diving deep,
and you don't want to get hit with the back-splash.
KAREEMA: Hey, birthday drinks tonight.
We said 8:30. Let's make it 9:00.
I... I don't know.
I might just spend a quiet night in.
Okay, it's adorable you think this is a negotiation.
We're having birthday drinks, and I'm not indulging
any further discussion on the matter.
It's not about you.
Right.

HANK: Evie!
- So, what did you find? - Nothing!
Well, that's great!
No, it's not great.
Look, everyone has a digital footprint.
But your guy has nothing. He's a...
a cyber-ghost.
Oh, I think I got a great idea for a TV show!
Uh, the point is, I need to sit down
with this guy, mano a mano.
This is fun.
Oh, man, ooh. Deirdre's really on my junk
about this order snafu thing, so I have to go.
Um, you two have fun.
Talk about, you know, whatever you want.
(Chuckles)
Was that Morse code?
Maybe it was...
maybe it wasn't.
Well, I mean, if it wasn't,
then you just accidentally asked me
if I was in the CIA.

I'm not, by the way.

Customer service. What's your problem?
Hey, Kareema.
It's Timothy Finger.
Evie's old boyfriend. Remember?
Not ringing any bells.
We met a bunch of times.
I was your Secret Santa last year.
Got you those gold earrings.
You know, the ones that are those little dangling triangles.
Could you be more specific?
Um, I got something in my Cybermart box
that I didn't order.
(Groans) Another screwed-up order... fab.
What is it this time?
A Zap Strap?
I don't even know what that is.
The Zap Strap by FitMart?
It's a fitness revolution. The device that challenges you
to keep active through the day, play the game,
beat the lightning rounds, level up, but don't stop
or you'll feel the zap... Zap Strap!
♪ The strap that zaps you into shape! ♪
That Zap Strap?
Wow, sounds... painful.
Anyway, how do I return it?
I can e-mail you a return shipping label for $6.99.
Wait, I have to pay for shipping?
Plus a restocking fee.
On something I didn't order?
Company policy. Or you could keep the item.
If you are satisfied with your service,
you may now terminate your call.
(Dial tone humming)
I can't believe all of these returns.
Who is Inspector 41?
Don't tell anyone I told you, but they'll be right next
to Inspector 42 in fulfillment.
HANK: We need to talk about Xavier.
Oh, no. Okay, what did you find out?
He is awesome!
- (Laughs): Wha...? - Seriously!
The dude's a sweetheart.
He bought lunch, he drinks cream sodas,
and his asteroid theory totally lines up with Jade Helm.
- What? - Oh.
He's got Armageddon coming exactly
one day after the Jade Helm exercise
drops the government elite into their deep underground bunkers,
while the rest of us turn into human glow sticks
thanks to the Russians' nuclear holocaust.
I mean, he's got the right date, but the wrong apocalyptic event.
So, relax. I mean, did you hear me?
KAREEMA: Let's really unpack this.
What's in the "crazy" column?
- Hank thinks he's sane. - Oh, that's not good.
And there's nothing about him online.
He's been Tased, like, six times.
He's been arrested.
I've been arrested. Don't judge.
Ooh, little piece of advice, never have sex
in the back of a car you just stole.
Well, I'm just afraid of letting him even deeper
into my life than he already is if it's just gonna end.
For now, maybe I should just kind of keep him
separate from the other parts and people in my life.
Like the highlighters that get
their own compartment in your pen drawer?

mommy stress, and he said
maybe it's time that I did something
for myself for once before it's too late.
Oh, I'm sure he didn't mean anything bad exactly.
No, something about the way he said it

Your theory isn't

It's science.
You've got it all worked out on paper.
So, I don't have to take it on faith; you can prove it.

Oh. Yeah, sure. It's just been a-a while.
All right. Okay.
- Two subatomic particles, right? - Mm-hmm.
They get paired up and they become identical.
They begin spinning the same direction

Nope, nope. Do you understand how a restraining order works?
Yes, I do.
Please. Okay, he might seem nuts, but I'm not.
You have my word we won't bother you again
if you just hear him out. Five minutes.
Five minutes.
AUTOMATED FEMALE VOICE: ... of sumo squats!
Lightning challenge!
(Zap Strap buzzes)
Ah!
AUTOMATED FEMALE VOICE: Straighten your back!
- (Zap Strap buzzes) - Ugh!

When you account for the force
of unbalanced thermal radiation...
- Yes, the Yarkovsky effect. Go on. - Precisely.
Then by my calculations, the asteroid's actually
altering its orbital pattern
- toward Earth. - No. Surely NEOWISE or IRTF
would have detected it by now.
The chalk value is too low.
Look, I-I know you're really busy, and we've already
taken up five minutes of your time, but...
please, will you just
read this?
I've run the numbers. Again and again.
It checks out. All I want to do
is-is tell people the truth,
so they can make the most of the time we have left.
And I'm hoping
you can help me tell them.
My lunch date's here.
Please.
Thank...
(Exhales)
(Exhaling)
(Laughter)
I can't believe it! You did it!
We did it!
Ah!
Oh, wait. Balls!
I forgot my purse.
One second.
TYRA: Excuse me. Can you toss this for me, please?
Yeah, sure.
I get at least two crackpots comin' at me a week.
They're smart, but they're nuts.
♪♪
You do you realize that as we speak, the great
Tyra DeNeil Fields is going over my calculations.
The truth is finally going to get out there!
The world is gonna finally know.
Yeah. It's... it's exciting.
And I owe it all to you. Thank you.
You know, you don't have to keep saying that.
Yep. You're right. Show don't tell. Sorry.
Mm. Mm.
Ah!
Evie? I'm glad I caught you before I left.
- Where you going? - Sarasota.
To be with my second family.
I spent ten years in fulfillment without realizing
that I wasn't fulfilled. So I quit.
I know it might sound crazy,
but nothing ever felt more right.
Could you tell Deirdre? I'm too scared to.
EVIE: Hey, Hank.
Hank.
Hank!
- Aah! Jiminy! - Oh!
Don't sneak up on me like that.
What? I called your name several times.
What?
Hey, hold on a sec.
- Ugh. - Ew, why are you wearing those?
The other night at trivia,
Deirdre whispered in my ear, and something happened.
What did she say?
She said,
"Excuse me, I need to go
to the ladies room."
I don't get it.
It's not what she said, it's how she said it.
Her voice is just so husky,
and erotic.
And it did something to me.
What did it, uh... what did it do to you?
(Whispers): I had what can only be described as a full-blown...
eargasm.
(Laughs)
- (Groans) - (Snorts)
Are you...
are you into Deirdre?
(Snorts) No!
(Scoffing)
She's the worst.
And I have an Internet girlfriend.
Yeah. Who you've never actually met.
@WinnieCooper534 is real! Believe me.
The ear, it just wants
- what it wants... - Okay, you know what?
- You know what? You're bumped down - (Laughs)
to friend number two. You're bumped down to friend number two,
and Timothy's friend number one,
- now that he's human again. - (Chuckles)
He accidentally got a Zap Strap from here.
Got him out of the house and...
broke through his writer's block.
Wait, Timothy got a screwed-up order too?
Yup, and Kareema told him to keep it.
Total serendipity.
It wasn't serendipity.
It was... you!
All along it was you.
You're the glitch in the system!
I have no idea what you're talking about,
but you're interrupting my very important work.
It all makes sense!
(Sighs) Nothing makes sense.
We're at the mercy of a random, and unfeeling universe...
Oh, stop it. You heard about Timothy's writer's block,
then he mysteriously got that ZipZap thing.
You talked about adding chaos to the world...
Fine.
Oh!
A few months ago, I started switching orders around because I got...
bored.
You know, small stuff, like
putting a vibrator in an old lady's crockpot.
Switching books: Analyst for Anal Lust.
But then you started talking to me
about Xavier's philosophy,
and making time count, and I decided to make
a little list of things I wanted to try.
"Naked knitting circle...
"Book club orgies... sex on a ski lift...
helping people"?
So Xavier inspired you.
(Exhales)
Look, maybe he's crazy.
Maybe what I'm doing is crazy, too, but...
Maybe sometimes crazy's worth it.
I have to tell Deirdre something...
Do your thing.
Did you hear how I said that? "Thing?"
Soft "I." "Thing."
Soft "I."
Well, mystery solved!
It was Robert in Fulfillment. Ha!
He totally fell down on the job.
But I took care of it, and you won't be seeing him...
round here again.
Great.
Are you okay?
Sensory deprivation helps me with stress.
Hank is avoiding me.
Oh! I... Well... I hadn't noticed.
Your friend, that
Xaviar fellow? He convinced me
that if I defied the corporate guidelines and made a move,
that I could finally break through to Hank.
Maybe you did.
He ran away from me.
Literally.
Full sprint.
Maybe he's just not ready to face his feelings.
Feelings?
When you smile like that, you look like a prairie dog.
Just... don't give up on him yet.
He might still come around. Have faith.
I'm not sure it's in the cards...
Hmm.
GLORIA: Five of Wands.
Are you feeling conflicted about something?
Yeah. Xavier.
Tyra just tossed his research, and I...
I didn't tell him.
I didn't want to burst his bubble.
But you know what? I don't even know
if his theory's based in reality
or nuts, but Mom...
listening to him talk about it...
he sounded smart.
And insightful.
And passionate.
Well, maybe that's enough.
Let me tell you something.
I don't love your dad's muffins.
I mean, I love that he bakes for me.
Makes me feel good, it makes him feel good,
and that's enough.
But see, telling him
that he uses way too much cinnamon...
(Chuckles)
... oh, it'd just suck the joy right out of it.
So if you like
who Xavier is,
what's a scientist got to do with it?
You know, love is all about teaming up
with someone, and then having their back
no matter what.
GARY: Gentlewomen,
your attention please.
I have an announcement to make.
I just quit my job!
- What? - Why?
- What happened? - Your crazy boyfriend
made a very valid point
the other night.
Time is precious,
and I need to start pursuing...
my passions.
So, I'm going to become...
an actor.
Honey!
That's great!
I'm so proud of you.
Are you lookin' at me?
Are you lookin' at me? 'Cause I think you're lookin' at me. Hey.
You gotta ask yourself...
You feel lucky, punk?
EVIE: I have something important to tell you
about last night...
I admire you for living by your convictions.
And I don't need Tyra DeNeil Fields's approval to know
that your way of life is positive
and contagious,
and has real value for people.
I've seen it happen.
I mean, it happened to me.
And to people around me.
I realized it doesn't actually matter if I believe
if the apocalypse is coming or not...
- (Sighs) It is... - No, because
we can still be together, even if we don't
believe all the same things.
No matter what,
I've got your back...
And I've got yours, too.
♪♪
- What are you... - (Chuckling): Okay, so...
Um...
Let's shout it...
from the rooftops.
You made these?
Evie.
- Mm-hmm? - You are...
the sexiest ex-bigot I have ever seen.
(Evie laughs)
Listen up, people!
XAVIER (Shouts): The end is nigh!
- The asteroid is coming! - EVIE: And don't waste a single day!
