Hendrickson is all set to walk into Greenspan's office empty-handed, when he is stopped by a surprise visitor—a future version of himself, carrying a finished copy of "Viking Columbus" and sporting a blood-stained bandage on his left hand. This Hendrickson reassures him that all he has to do is return to the past and complete "Viking Columbus", and that everything will work out in the end. Hendrickson #2 then walks into Greenspan's office with the completed film, leaving Hendrickson #1 to wonder what happened to his hand.
