In 2006, Brooklyn Congressman David Norris unsuccessfully runs for the United States Senate. While rehearsing his concession speech, David meets Elise Sellas. They share a passionate kiss, though he does not get her name. Inspired by her, David delivers an unusually candid speech that is well-received, making him a favorite for the next campaign. A month later, David prepares for a new job. At Madison Square Park, near David’s home, Harry Mitchell receives an assignment from his superior Richardson. Harry is to spill coffee on David’s shirt by 7:05 AM so he misses his bus. However, he falls asleep; David boards the bus, meets Elise again and gets her phone number.
David arrives at work early and finds everyone in the building frozen and being examined by unfamiliar men. Attempting to escape, he is incapacitated and taken to a warehouse. Richardson reveals the existence of the Adjustment Bureau. As its staff, Richardson and his men ensure people’s lives proceed following “the Plan”, a complex document Richardson attributes to “the Chairman”. They destroy the card with Elise’s phone number, and David is warned that if he tells anyone about them or tries to meet Elise again, he will be “reset”—his memory and personality erased.
