Chapter 1324: Mind-opening
Running away and running wildly, Joel called Clementine and continued to travel through his memory scenes, trying to get rid of the pursuit of the memory erasure program, return to the Forgetting Clinic, and find the doctor to find a solution.
However, it failed——
This is Joel's memory, and the doctor is also a projection in Joel's mind, equivalent to an image imagined by Joel himself. He does not have any power, and naturally cannot help Joel terminate the memory erasure program.
So, what to do?
The two of them escaped and traveled through the world. Joel told Clementine the whole story and tried to find a solution, but obviously it was not that easy.
In reality, Patrick is trying to make Clementine truly fall in love with him. He takes Clementine to the Charles River to lie on the ice and count the stars, and repeats what Joel said to Clementine. Discourse.
"I have no regrets in dying now, I just went too fast, I have never felt this way, this is what I long for."
It's like memorizing lines.
But he never expected that it would be self-defeating.
These identical words did not move Clementine. Clementine just felt irritated and flustered, and turned around and left home without saying a word.
In Joel's mind, Joel and Clementine tried naive and stupid methods, but unexpectedly made Clementine think of a possibility.
"...Joel, why don't you take me to a place without me? A place where I don't belong? Where can we hide until dawn?"
In this way, Stan and the others will no longer be able to find Clementine in the depths of their memories.
Joel thought seriously for a moment but found that everything was in vain, "I really can't remember any memory without you."
Clementine, "Oh, it's so sweet; but, look hard."
Joel quietly looked out the window at the patter of rain, and the memory of his childhood wearing yellow rain boots and raincoat and stepping into puddles in the yard emerged.
Hum hum hum, Joel softly hummed a nursery rhyme he liked in his childhood, and then, it started to rain heavily in their apartment, and even the green bicycle from his childhood memory appeared in the apartment.
A surreal romantic scene unfolded before my eyes.
Clementine showed a big smile, "Success! I am a genius!"
Joel takes Clementine back to his childhood memories. He becomes a baby again, crawling around under the kitchen table; while Clementine puts on the clothes of Mrs. Hanlin, the next door neighbor in her memory, and is busy in the kitchen.
This scene is absolutely full of imagination——
On the movie screen, Anson and Kate were still there, but Anson, who was wearing pajamas, shrank to the size of a baby, crawling on the floor; while Kate was normal size, wearing a retro dress from thirty years ago with red hair.
It's not just imaginative, it's simply... imaginative!
For a moment, Joel was four years old again, trying to open the refrigerator to find ice cream, and crying because he missed his mother. There was a half-adult, half-baby soul hidden in that baby's body, which was hard to tell.
Clementine tries to calm the baby down, and there is a flurry of scrambling until Clementine has to pull up her skirt to distract Joel.
Joel: ...evil.
The Angelica Film Center is bursting with laughter, and no one is exempt. The space formed by the surrounding buildings is filled with echoes of laughter and applause——
This is indeed a comedy.
To be honest, ordinary people have absolutely no such imagination. Even if they see it with their own eyes, they will still be stunned, and they will not be able to keep up with the speed of their imagination for a while.
There, Joel and Clementine were finally hidden in his four-year-old memories. Here, in Joel's apartment, Stan and Mary, who were being intimate, finally heard the warning sound from the computer. At this time, Stan realized that the process of erasing memories was off track, and they might burn out Joel's brain.
Stan was stunned.
In a hurry, Mary thinks Stan should notify Dr. Howard.
Stan tries to refuse, but Mary thinks they have no choice.
After all, Stan had no way to refute. In desperation, he called the doctor and waited for Dr. Howard to come and solve the disaster at hand.
Stan didn't want Dr. Howard to see Mary, and he convinced Mary that she should leave; but Mary refused, and she even started to tidy up her appearance and wait for Dr. Howard's arrival——
Looking back carefully, Mary could not hide her admiration for Dr. Howard.
This was the case when she was in the clinic. Mary kept hovering next to Dr. Howard; when she first arrived at Joel's apartment, she kept talking about how great Dr. Howard was and how worthy of being remembered in history.
At this time, when Dr. Howard arrived at the apartment, Mary greeted the doctor's arrival in the most perfect manner; however, the doctor had no time to pay attention to Mary for the time being. He had to deal with Joel's condition as soon as possible.
The doctor stepped in and solved the problem immediately.

He found Joel and Clementine floating in a pile of dishes taking a bath in Joel's mother's sink. With the push of a button, the two were swept into the sewer.
However, in the apartment, Joel's eyes that had been tightly closed suddenly opened, which frightened the doctor, Stan, and Mary. The three people leaned over Joel and crowded into the camera, trying to confirm whether Joel Come to your senses.
Things are not good, very bad.
The doctor got busy again and finally got Joel back on track. The memory erasure procedure continued, but found that Joel and Clementine had been deviating from the memory blueprint:
They are returning to the amnesia clinic, they are returning to the memory blueprint that has been erased tonight, and they are trying to stop the memory erasure process.
However, the doctor exhaled a little: at least now he knew they were there, and as long as there were traces and traces, Stan would be able to erase the memory.
The doctor packed his things and was about to leave, but he never expected that Joel and Clementine disappeared again. The two people were missing from the computer's brain blueprint again, and the doctor had to stop again.
Joel is trying to find the most shameful moments in his memory according to Clementine's ideas, and hide Clementine in the corners of those memories:
When I was a teenager, I was hiding under the covers and was accidentally interrupted by my mother.
The bed appeared out of thin air on the snowy beach of Montauk to satisfy your wild fantasies on the beach, in the open air, and in the wild.
When he was four years old, he was encouraged by his friends to hit the dead sparrows with a hammer, but after actually doing it, he collapsed and cried bitterly. Then a little girl appeared to save him, but he fell in love with the feeling of "suffocation" after that.
Then, appearing again on the snowy beach of Montauk, Clementine realizes that the beach villa may contain Joel's most intimate and shameful secret. She tries to get closer and Joel tries to pull her away. Individuals chased each other on the beach, laughing constantly.
Joel is hiding, Joel is hiding, Joel is opening up his most shameful memories bit by bit.
This made Dr. Howard and Stan frown, so much so that the doctor had to stick to the computer all the time, ready to dig Joel out of the corner of his memory at any time.
A chase battle between you and me is taking place, with some absurdity, some romance, some sadness and some fragmentation, slowly unfolding like a picture scroll.
