Question: I'm confused about the return of the purse and kids' bicycles. Michael says he spent money that he doesn't have and might have to return the kids' bikes. Architects make a substantial amount of income. So why would he need to return the kiddie bikes?
Question: When Michael fast forwards to 2017 he wakes up in what believes to be an apartment. He tells the remote to take him home. He's already at home, so why would it take him to his old home?
Answer: The remote works off Michael's thoughts, when Michael thinks about certain things, the remote control takes over. That's why every time he thinks about sex he "fast forwards" and every time a promotion is mentioned, it "fast forwards" as well. When he says "take me home" he's thinking about the house he (unbeknown to him) used to live at which is why the remote takes him there instead of his new home.
Question: What happened to Kevin?
Answer: Kevin tries to tell his mom that he didn't smoke the cigar and she doesn't believe him. Kevin argues with his family, and he only had a friend named Horseman, the imaginary friend. Kevin's dad said, "you're extremely bad, Kevin!" Kevin might be in military school or somewhere.
Answer: I think I found the quotes on quotes.net. Kevin's family got angry, and they don't believe him about the cigar that Michael has. Kevin's only friend is his imaginary friend named Horseman, and Alfred said, "You're extremely bad, Kevin." Kevin might be in military school or something.
Question: When does Michael use the rewind button? I've seen at least 1 scene but I heard there were 2 scenes that he used the rewind button.
Answer: He also used it to see what the first kiss song was. The Cranberries.
Answer: He used it first to go back when he saw himself being "made", his birth, and 1976 when he was a child. Later in the film, he used it again (with the help of Morty) to see the last known time he saw his father alive (upon learning he died while in the future).
Answer: The median salary in the United States for architects is currently around $80K per year. It was a few thousand dollars less in 2006 when the film was made. That's not what most would call a "substantial" income, especially considering that is the median. Michael could make significantly less than that. There are thousands of people in the United States making more than $80K a year living paycheck-to-paycheck, based on their individual circumstances.
