- We see the same opening from the beginning of the movie. Joel wakes up, finds the scratch that drunken Clementine left on his car, and makes a rare impulsive decision by taking a train to Montauk.
- We fast forward to where we left off. Clementine goes inside to grab her toothbrush, but she also grabs her mail.
- Clementine finds a letter from Mary that tells her what happened. Mary thinks memory erasure in unethical, and she's giving patients their tapes back.
- Clem plays the tape in Joel's car. Joel freaks out, thinks Clem is messing with him, and makes her leave the car.
