Summary
Emmett is too empirically minded to believe in life after death. But after death there is, at least, remembrance. He can only theorise about what will actually happen in the event they fail – but he doesn’t need to understand temporal physics to make an educated guess. A few last moments of terror in the face of the inevitable, followed by total oblivion.
Doc Brown ruminates on the peculiar situation he's found himself in and grapples with the ethics of time travel. Marty eats a sandwich.

Summary
“What if this is – for the best. Y’know?”
“Marty, if we don’t correct the timeline you and your brother and sister will never be born,” said Emmett. “How could that possibly be for the best?”
“They might marry other people and have different kids,” Marty said.
“Marty –”
“They might be happier that way.”

Summary
“Is that really what kids listen to in 1985?”
With a shrug, Marty took back his headphones. “Sure.”
“What did you say it was called?”
“Black Sabbath,” Marty repeated.
The implications of the name caught up with him. “Good grief,” he said, which made Marty laugh harder. “You actually like this?”
Still smiling, Marty nudged his arm. “You like it in the future.”
