Marty McFly
Great, You're Alive
Upon arriving in Hill Valley, Marty is stunned to see that the town seems to have gone under a total transformation. Stores that were once decreipt and shut down are all open and everything seems new and clean, not to mention...old.
The movie theatre is playing a movie that is not only thirty years old, but it also only costs 50 cents and is advertising the fact it has air conditioning!
And everyone is wearing clothes from the 50s and Marty's clothes by contrast are attracting a lot of attention as if they've never seen anything like it...
It is so confusing that Marty almost gets himself knocked down by a car, just what he needs after all of this.
The most unbelievable thing of all is the Town Square, it's no longer a parking lot, but a park, with a War Memorial and as Marty walks down the path the dongs of a bell sound. The Courthouse Clock is working again!
The 'Welcome to Hill Valley Sign' even looks new and proud with awards and services signs placed all over it.
As Marty stares at Main Street another older car pulls past broadcast a very familar message... "Re-elect Mayor Red Thomas..."
What has happened to Goldie Wilson?
Finally one of the strangely clothed people throw a newspaper into the bin behind Marty, and the teen digs it out to read the date...
"Saturday, Novermber 5th, 1955"
Looking across Main Street Marty watches a 50s style car pull into the Texaco and recieve the full service, petrol fill up, windsheild cleaning, tyre pressure, even checking the oil!
There is some old music playing from speakers in the doorway of the music store next door, but all that is being advertised is music from thirty years ago and there's not a rock and roll album in sight!
What has happened? Has the Town really decided to throw some sort of 50s Revival Party on short notice?
Stunned, Marty looks up and sees a sign from inside what used to be Lou's Aerobics Centre advertising a 'Telephone' and relieved Marty rushes across Main Street and burst through the doors.
The man behind the counter looks at him as if he's crazy and asks Marty a very strange question.
"Hey, kid, whaddya do, jump ship?"
"Huh?" Marty is utterly confused.
"What's with the Life Perserver?"
Marty doesn't know what the guys talking about and simply says he needs to use the phone and the man directs him to the back of the store. There Marty opens the phonebook and starts looking through the 'B's until at last he finds Doc Brown.
"Great," Marty mutters to himself. "You're alive."
However, nobody is answering at Doc's house when Marty calls, not only that but his watch goes off, getting him a very odd look from the man who is walking by at the time.
Finally, annoyed Marty hangs up the phone and not knowing the street Doc's house is on, he rips out the page in the phonebook and heads back to the counter to aks for directions.
However, the man is a little testy and demands whether Marty is going to order anything or not.
But even this isn't easy, Marty asks for a Tab.
"A tab?" The man demands, "Can't give you a tab, unless you order something."
"All right, I'll have a Pepsi Free," Marty asks.
"If you want a Pepsi PAL, you gotta pay for it!" The man demands angrily.
Marty, thoroughly confused finally ask for something without sugar in it, and recieves a black coffee for his trouble.
Sitting down, Marty puts his head on his hand and wonders if he's ever going to find Doc, he doesn't notice the boy sitting next to him, his head in his hand just like Marty.
At least until a gruff voice calls.
"Hey, McFly!
