Stealing Time is a 2001 drama involving the reuniting of four friends a year after college, each of them now dealing with their own problems.

Alec's in the Administration and Records Office at his college where he argues with a clerk about a credit that is apparently missing from his transcript.

Sam is in a dead end relationship and working at a Mexican restaurant in Salt Lake City, Utah.

During the visit, Alec is diagnosed with a brain tumor, a fact that he conceals from his friends.

At first his friends are skeptical, but they're all gradually shown how meticulous Alec has been about details; he had the whole thing planned down to the minute, but stresses that any slip up will cost them time and potentially cause them to fail the mission.

A television news broadcast in the bar states that the police have recovered a very good lead.

Stuffed among the jar of pennies that Alec unintentionally left behind at the bank was a Rennie's Landing badge that Trevor was playing with innocently earlier in the film.

Using this lead, the police issue a broadcast alert for Trevor, who had just used his credit card at the restaurant to pay for their drinks.

Watching all of this from a distance is Alec, who was running late but had showed up at the meeting point to join his friends.

As he watches Trevor and Casey lying dead or dying, all of a sudden Alec falls to the ground.

From that point, the viewers see a montage of the events in the movie, some of which were previously shown out of order.
