man: We have visual. Stay in formation!
Lock and load, ladies.
Hey--there!
[Dramatic music]
[Men shouting, groaning]
Go!
We have two of them pinned down in sector seven.
[Men groaning, grunting]
[breathing hard] We're in.
Ms. Goines, there should be a processing terminal
where they calculate their splinter jumps.
Communication [murmurs]-- Processing, processing!
[Beeping]
Found it. Extracting the primary code now.
[Intense music]
Aah!
- We're cut off. - Is there another way?
Back the way we came.
Take us an hour. This'll all be over by then.
Shit!
Here they come!
Drop 'em!
Come on, come on.
Uhh!
Aah!
James?
[Sounds of pain continue]
Fall back.
- Aah! - Fall back!
Aah!
James?
[Men grunting]
Well, this is a quick-ass trip.
Cassie? Jones.
There's too many of them. We're getting out.
Jones, Cole's in trouble. He needs The Daughters.

Good morning, Titan!
This is J.H. Bond coming at you from WKRP in 2043.

Didn't think The Daughters ever came this far east.
What do you want?
An army.
[Scraping sound]
You told Max that you and I are old friends?
- We will be... - [Laughs]
- One day. - Is that so?
Look, I respect the trades between our two camps--
That's good stuff.
The Daughters pass through, I pay it no mind,
but here you are, the old gypsy,
looking to, what... Tell my future?
Spoiler alert, Teddy.
You don't have one.
[Soft, dramatic music]
So you know some things about me.
My family's shit, my Wilson's disease.
We got--we got a knife that looks the same.
- It is the same. - No, no.
"Witness"? "Messengers"?
"Time travel"?
That is some "Twilight Zone" bullshit.
For Christ's sake, I'm too old for this shit.

Go! [Indistinct shouting]

[panting] What is this?
A last chance for you and I to save the world, kiddo.
[Wheezy laugh]
The old lady said we'd wind up on the same team,
that I should put old business behind me.
Now clearly, she was telling the truth about--well, shit,
look at this.
Who are you two?
Why shouldn't I just drop you right here?

We gotta take out a power station.
It's at the base of the tower over there.
Might be the only way to stop the apocalypse.
Wanna blow some shit up?
- Lead the way. - Let's do it.
Let's go, boys.
Time to save the world.
- It's done. - Something's wrong
with the comms. - I got it.
Go check it out.
- We gotta go. - Okay. Okay!
Jones, we processed the code.
We're on our way back.
Cole, where are you?
We're on our way to the power station.
If we don't make it-- - We need a backup plan.

Jennifer and I will head up to the controls.

Now all we have to do is wait

Soon, you and him will be in that house forever.

We can have forever.
[Shaky breathing]

Then don't.
[Wind howling]
You and me,
we can go, we can hide in that house forever.
[Wind moaning]
We can raise a son who never dies.
We can have it all,
until it means nothing, because it never ends.
[Heavy, sad music]
We'll be together forever...
Until we can't even remember
what it feels like to find each other again--
After an hour,
minute, a second apart.
[Wind moaning, whistling]
I'll go with you, Cassie.
We can have forever...
Or we can have now,

To ensure the end...
We must preserve the beginning.
Each one of us who have played a part
in getting James to his final moment--
We will need to preserve what's left of causality
or everything will have been for naught.
That means, for each of you,
you must return to your timeline of origin
to continue on.
That was weird.
[Scoffs] Gonna get a whole lot weirder.

Hey.
I know you...
From TV, you're the--
You're the doc from the CDC.

[Laughs softly] [sniffles]
So now what, uh...
I have a cycle to whatever?
You and I
have got a whole lot of shit to do.
I'll coach you through it.
[Laughs softly]
Gonna be a hell of a performance.
Yeah, look.
Say you shoot me.
- I'm sorry? - You shoot me.
Now I'm apologizing.
- I-- - I forgive you.

Just make sure you keep the safety on.
So this is my reward for all this shit?
I get shot? - [Laughs]
You know, with my luck, you'd probably miss and
screw this whole thing up, man.
- Listen, I just wanna say-- - Don't, don't, don't, don't.
Don't.
I don't wanna waste my good-bye on this you.
I wanna save it

We did the right thing though, didn't we?

I was waiting in your car.
I watched you walk across the parking lot,
on your phone,
smiling.
I was already in love with you. - [Laughs] Oh...
I remember thinking,
"I'm about to ruin her life."
No, no, you didn't.
- Now... - [Sighs]
I get to give it back to you.
You'll be a doctor again.

My name is Dr. Cassandra Railly of the Maryland CDC.
We're working on containment of the Kalavirus

the plague starts with Leland Goines,

But we are the true architects of the plague.

The answer is among you.

I always meant to ask you
where you got these things.
At Raritan. I planted tobacco.
Out back.

James...
Thank you.
You made a promise,
which you kept...
That we see the end together.
And we have.
