His father's emergency/''accident''


I don't know if this was covered here, I don't feel like going through all the threads.

But I'm curious what his dad's sudden emergency was, and was the car accident a set-up by the feds since he had the time-machine? And if that was the case, why did they never come search the house for it? I imagine they would be scared something like this falls into the wrong hands (as it did).

Thoughts?

Also wondered about the same thing.

And thought maybe the dad would be suspicious his son came back alone and not with him?

Idk. The whole movie is one big mind F

Would be awesome though to have that option!

I think we're meant to assume they DID come search for the time machine. But remember that the dad had hidden it beneath the floor, so DARPA clearly failed to find and recover it.
