[Man Narrating] Time travel. It's easy when you think about it.
You do it every day in one direction.
But what If you could travel back in time?
Witness history firsthand? (HchC)
Would it be enough to just observe?
Or would knowing you had the power to change that moment,
the world as you knew it, force you to cry out?
Well, not if I can help it.
I work for T.E.C., the Time Enforcement Commission.
I go after jumpers who think they can beat the system,
take advantage of knowing the outcome of a situation,
reverse a regret, right a wrong..
or simply relive a moment that they let slip by.
Whatever the reason, I don't care.
It's my job to bring them in.
Our past has been locked in time, [ Chiming ]
arbitrated by time, defined by time.
If we change that, what have we got left?
Tell me, what have we got?

Not anymore. Get the gun.
Everybody out.
Step out of the car, ma'am.
What took you so long?
You guys could've picked a closer ambush.
You are such a wuss, Edwards.
[Laughing] That's funny.
- Huh. Blow me. - Let's move. We don't got much time.
Not bad. We might actually pull this thing off.
You still look Chinese to me.
It's Germany, 1940, Edwards. We all look alike to Nazis.
I sure as hell hope so.
Dankeschon. Bitteschon.

Miller!. [ Gasps ]
I'm glad you're here, Ryan. Because you of all people will understand.
Will I? Yes.
Forget all the nonsense you've been told and look at where you are.
Do you realize what we could accomplish here.. together?
Right now? Don't go there, Miller, 'cause it's not gonna happen.
You don't want to stop a madman from killing 1 million people?
The people you're saving died over 80 years ago.
Not in this time line, they didn't.
It's 1 940, and they're still very much alive.
You know it doesn't work that way. You'll throw the entire future into disarray.
Ryan, please. Come on. That's your father talking, not you.
Help me undo what never should've been done.
I know this is hard for you. You gotta do the right thing.
Miller!. No!.
[ Both Grunting ]
Drop the gun, asshole.
No. You drop the gun.
Drop the gun, or your timeline is over.
Okay. Okay, we're all on the same team.

[Ryan Narrating] It gets harder every time you go back.
With every jump, a piece of you gets left behind.
It starts to eat away at you because you are searching.
Searching for something that's not there.
Something that was a part of you.
Something that reality won't let you have back.
[ Watch Ticking ]
[ Horse Neighing ]
I've been holed up in this cracker box for 30 days now,
doing my time.
I know they're out there watching my every move,
just waiting, hoping I'll screw up.
Well, I'm getting tired of it.
A few years ago, the government decided there was a need..
to verify and preserve the historical accuracy of time,
in the event a breach actually occurred.
The truth is they were afraid they had given T.E.C too much power.
Wanted to keep us in check. So they created the Society for Historical Authenticity.
It was supposed to be strictly research and observation.
Irony is that they gave Society way too much power,
and the likes of Brandon Miller was able to work his way to the top--
something Society is still trying to put a lid on.
Of course, if I get to one of Brandon Miller's boys before they do,
it's my collar, right, guys?
All done. [ Paperboy] Extra! Read all about it!
[ Chattering ]
[ Paperboy] Read all about it! President Cleveland signs..
a proclamation of neutrality!
Refuses to show preference to Cuban insurgents!
Cy Young keeps winning!
Boston Bean eaters pound Louisville Colonels!
Brooklyn Bridegrooms whip the New York Giants!
[ Man ] Here, son. Give me a paper. And there 's a nickel for you.
[ Paperboy] Read all about it! President Cleveland signs..
proclamation of neutrality!
[ Chattering Continues ]
[ Man Laughing ] That's a good one!
Good morning, boys.
Ryan.
You know, you Society guys really need to work on your undercover skills.
I've been watching you for days now.
Cut the shit, Ryan. What are you doing here?
I just couldn't think of a better place to serve my 30 days.
What are you two up to? You know damn well what we're up to, Ryan.
We're here to make sure you don't try any of your strong-arm bullshit.
Strong-arm bullshit? You've been bringing Miller's boys in without authority.
If O'Rourke hadn't have pulled strings, you'd be a civilian right now.
Oh. So you think one of Miller's boys is in town?
If there is, we're bringing him in, and he'll be tried in Society's court.
Every one of those losers deserved to be fried, including Brandon Miller.
But you guys screwed that one up. Miller was Society.
Miller was behind every illegal time jump for the last two years,
and I've been the one stuck having to chase him down.
Every last one of them.
But that's your problem now, not mine.
Because fortunately I'm still on vacation for another.. 1 0 minutes.
And I plan on enjoying it. Cheerio!
Oh, by the way, Johnson, you're standing in horseshit.
Good morning, Mr. Carnegie. Good morning, Jackson.
Thank you, sir.
[Horse Neighs ]
[ Officer Laughing]
What in the hell you think you're doin'? I'm sorry about that.
Sorry, are you? I just paid two cents for that doughnut and coffee.
I said I'm sorry, Officer.
He says he's sorry, boys.
He doesn't look very sorry to me.
Come on. Give me a break.
If you was truly sorry, ladies,
you'd get down on all fours and you'd eat the doughnut.
[ Officers Laughing ]
[ Laughs ] I'll tell you what. I'll pay for that doughnut.
Nice. See this.
I believe this well-spoken lad is tryin' to bribe an officer of the law.
[ Snickers ] Look. I ain't got time for this.
[ Grunting ]
[Ryan ] Come on, guys. Hey.
Listen. There's really no reason to arrest me.
Oh, we ain't gonna arrest you, boy.
Oh, no. We're just gonna kick the tar outta ya.
[ Laughs ] I believe they call this police brutality.
You bet your ass they do.
[ Grunts ] No need for violence.
[ Grunting Continues ]
[ Both Gasp ] What in the hell just happened?
Got it? Yeah, yeah.
Here you go. Take it. That's it. Right here. Yeah.
What Do you plan on doing with all of Andrew Carnegie's money, Frank?
What are you doing, Ryan? You guys were right.
One of Miller's boys was in town after all. See you in 130 years.
Frank Knight, you have been charged with multiple violations..
of T.E.C code 40.8, subsection nine:.
time travel with intent to alter the future.
You're also wanted on an outstanding warrant..
as an accomplice in the murder of T.E.C Agent Edwards.
I am a member of the Society for Historical Authenticity,
and I demand to be brought before a jury of my peers.
Silence!
The outstanding murder warrant against you supercedes the present charges.
You have been found guilty of conspiracy to commit murder in absentia..
and are hereby sentenced to death.
This is a kangaroo court! You're the murderers!
Miller was right! [Miller's Voice ] Sasha!
You're just like Hitler! You're just like Hitler!
[ Electricity Surging]
[Judge ] Date of execution: May 7,, 2025.
There are far too many variables to theorize..
what might have happened historically had events played out differently.
I 'm not theorizing, Professor Chan.
I'm just saying, if time travel is possible,
we have a moral obligation to right the wrongs of the past.
[Professor Chan ] So, are you suggesting that..
if it were possible to change historic events, we should?
[ Voice Echoing]
Ryan--
Ryan, where have you been all morning? I've been looking everywhere for you.
Just around. Yeah?
Well, congratulations on nailing the rest of Miller's guys.
God, that must've been great watching Frank Knight fry!
I mean, it only took you two years, but, hey, who's counting, right?
You okay?
Yeah, sure.
[ Sighs ] Look at that bad boy.
I will never get over how lucky we are to ride that thing.
Technology at its finest.
You sure you're okay?
I'm cool. All right.
Well, I'm late for my psych check, so I'll catch you later.
Way to go, partner.
[ Chiming ]
[Indistinct Voice ]
[Man ] Hey, Ryan.
Ryan! [ Voice Echoing ]
O'Rourke wants to see you.
I love that serving a 30-day suspension in the past shit, man.
[Laughing] You kill me, bro.
See you around. Peace.
I've got half a dozen cops on psych leave.
They're trained to deal with it, DoC
Obviously not very well if I've got half a dozen on psych leave.
Damn it, O'Rourke! You are not giving these guys enough turnaround time.
We're suspending them in their own reality,
ripping them back and forth through time.
I just got the results of Casey's CAT scan. That's a cerebral hemorrhage.
This is your responsibility to start reigning these guys in!
Give it a rest, DoC Give it a rest?
All right. This morning, Ryan Chan starts his 30-day suspension.
This afternoon, he had Frank Knight arrested, tried and sentenced.
- He served his 30 days. - He was gone for three hours.
Nowhere in the committee's ruling did it say where he has to take his 30 days.
He happened to be there when time crime was being committed.
He'd already served his 30 days, so officially he was back on active duty.
You're as bad as he is.
And you were supposed to check in with me as soon as you got back.
You want to have dinner tonight?
- I don't date timecops. - I don't date doctors.
Boy, you really pushed the envelope on this one, kid.
I've had those Society jackasses up my butt all morning.
Hanley and Johnson.
You know, if they had it their way, they'd have Frank Knight in a cushy cell..
with Brandon Miller as we speak.
You know, they're gonna want another suspension.
Don't worry about a thing, kid. I'll take care of it all.
You did good. You did damn good.
What's the matter with you?
I'm feeling like I need a little time away.
Good! You deserve it.
Couple of days. Take a little vacation.
That's not what I mean.
I don't think I can do this anymore.
What? What are you talking about?
I've forgotten why I started doing this in the first place.
I mean, what have I got to show for it?
Have I actually made the world a better place?
Oh, Christ! Are we talking about that Hitler mess again? Killing Miller's old lady?
You did the right thing. You sure about that?
You did your job! You protect the future by preserving the past.
You follow orders, even the ones you don't like.
You're not little people, Ryan. You're timecop.
You've had a million-plus dollars' worth of training.
Hell, I trained you myself. You're my go-to guy!
So you get your shit together. You forget about Sasha..
and Brandon Miller, because that's all over.
What do you think you're gonna do out on the street anyway?
You've seen too much. Hell, I don't even think you know how to do anything else.
- I know I want a life. - Life? Well--
You know, your life is in that launch tube down there.
You know that, and I know that.
[Alarm Beeping] [Female Computer Voice ] Time breach in progress.
- Scan central states. - Breach point isolated.
[ Man ] Let's bring 'em home, people. All right, who and where?
It's internal, sir. One of our own. Douglas. June, 1 987.
- We're bringing him back now. - Yeah? What happened?
He was on assignment and decided to pay himself a visit.
- Got too close. - I knew something like this would happen.
Not now, DoC Why not?
You've been allowing them to go back wherever and whenever they choose.
- Doc, not now! - [ Computer] Initiating re-entry.
Holy shit!
[ Computer] Launch recovery successful.
[ Groaning ]
Douglas? Oh, my God.
[ Groaning Continues ]
How the hell did this happen without me knowing it?
Look. I can't account for every movement made by our agents throughout their lives.
What exactly Do you do here all day long, Travis?
I just launch 'em and retrieve 'em, boss.
They're the ones trained to interact with the past.
They know the same matter can't occupy the same space at the same time.
Oh, shit!
Send someone back to stop him before he meets himself.
An accelerated launch now!
I'm going.
- I thought you wanted a life. - No. You're not sending him.
He just jumped this morning.
I'm sorry, Ryan. Broderick, you're up.
You got it, chief.
If Douglas dies here, he also dies in 1 987.
That means every time criminal he's ever brought in will never have been arrested.
[ Computer Voice] Sixty-seconds, accelerated launch.

It's a launch, DoC Don't you have something to do?
I want this launch in under two minutes. Do you read me, son?

Calculating time launch locations.
These launches are coming out of the Society for Historical Authenticity.
- What? You sure about that? - No doubt, sir.
Ryan, you take Jeffers, assemble a team and find out what's going on over there.
You got it. Travis, you start the re-arrests now.
[Travis ] Yes, sir.
We lost him.
Can I help you? Mary Jeffers?
- Yes. - I'm looking for your daughter.
Fredericks, check the vaults! Got it.
Samuels, take the offices.
Jackson, you come with us. Yes, sir!
[ Grunting ]
Jackson, open up those files. Right away.
Hanley and Johnson. My God!
I was just talking to these guys.
if I count right, they got everyone.
The public doesn't know about the Society, Ryan. This is an inside job.
Miller's out. No way.
He's 3,000 feet underground in the world penitentiary.
They blew up the launch space so we couldn't track them.
Ryan, the Social Security lineage vaults were broken into.
Let me see that.
The personnel files on the entire T.E.C have been accessed and downloaded. Shit!
That means if Miller's behind this, he could.. go back and erase the--
Ryan! What the hell just happened?
Miller's eliminating us by hitting our family lines.
Jeffers was never born.
[O'Rourke On Radio] Ryan, get your ass back here right now!
All hell's breaking loose. Jackson, let's go.
We've got spikes across the board! They're massive!
Off the scale. I've never seen anything like this before.
They go all the way back to the 19th century.
Now, this can't be tied to Douglas' death.
You already arrested Miller and his entire gang.
Douglas tracked down Tony Banks for me. That means that I never arrested Banks.
Travis, get a lead on Banks right now.
Computer, was there a breakout at the world penitentiary?
[ Computer] There was a major riot and prison break two days ago.
- Present status? - The World Penitentiary for the Criminally Insane..
is currently in lockdown.
Hostages are being held. Prisoners are unaccounted for.
Penitentiary still under siege.
I still don't have a lead on Banks.
Banks broke him out of prison.
[ Groaning ]
[ Woman ] Lost one.
[ Groaning ]
- Oh, man! - [ Man Screams ]
We gotta stop this prison break before Miller wipes out the entire T.E.C
Travis! Yeah, boss?
Prepare for another goddamn accelerated launch.
Ryan, you get your butt in that seat.
You stop that son of a bitch! You hear me?

I wouldn't want to be in that place when it does.
You do realize the risk of running an accelerated launch without an exact location?
Just don't land him in the middle of a wall.
If my space and time telemetry's off, I could land him on the moon, for Christ's sake.

Good to go, Ryan. Thanks, man. Let's do it, DoC
Listen to me. A normal launch has a failure rate of four percent.
Launching you again this soon raises that to 20%.
But an accelerated launch-- Just give me the shot, Doc!
God! Ryan, this is not safe! We shouldn't be doing this! Doc!
Give me the shot, or my molecules will be scattered from here to hell and back!
Doc, give me the damn shot! Betsy!

Revenge is sweet, eh, Ryan? How'd you like that, baby, huh?
[ Grunting Continues ]
Hey, Ryan, I thought you might show up here today.
For two years, in this hole, I've waited.
If only you'd opened your mind and allowed yourself to think..
beyond the confines of a timecop,
we would be so much further along by now.
[ Sighs ]
It's bothered you, hasn't it? What's that?
The decision you made in Berlin.
To save Hitler, kill my wife.
I know.
We both lost something that night.
Part of who we were.
But I tell you what, Ryan,
I'm willing to put all that aside and move forward..
because what we're dealing with is much, much bigger than us.
You want me to forget Berlin ever happened?
Forget about Edwards and your Sasha? Is that it?
- Yes. - You are insane.
What's your definition of insanity, Ryan?
Is it really yours, or is it just something you've been told?
What do you say we jump back in time..
to when man first decided to lock up all those deemed insane?
Don't you want to know who made that decision?
Don't you want to make sure they got it right?
Or did they destroy the lives of some of the greatest..
scientists, artists and philosophers we would have ever known..
simply because those individuals were different?
[Sighs ] Ryan..
out of the respect and love I had for your father,
I'm giving you a second chance.
To what? Play God with you?
Decide who's nuts, who's not? Who dies, who lives?
You're right, Miller. This is bigger than us.
And that's the way it's going to stay.
God, you disappoint me.
I thought for sure you were gonna understand.
[ Choking ]
Killing you here gives me no satisfaction!
But to accomplish what I believe I was put on this earth for,
I have to make sure you were never born in any incarnation.
I will miss what your father taught me.
I will miss what you and I could have accomplished together.
Look at me.
I will miss the challenge.
Payback's a bitch, isn't it, Ryan?
[ Groans ]
[ Beeping ]
[Computer] Vital signs elevated. Stress level three.
I lost him. You have to send me back.
- There's a glitch. - Travis, program me for relaunch now!
What do you want me to do, boss? A relaunch with no rest cycle could kill him.
I talked to him. He's out of his mind.
You gotta send me back. If you don't, I'm dead.
[ Sighs ]
It's your ass, kid. Launch him.

Where in the hell did you come from? Where's Brandon Miller?
Who? Brandon Miller. He's been locked up here for two years.
I don't know a Brandon Miller, and I've been here for six years.
As a matter of fact, who in the hell are you? [ Grunts ]
[Male Computer Voice ] Stress level seven.
Sorry, kiddo. You're going out again.
What happened to your eye? What? [ Laughs ]
He wants to know what happened to my eye.
Miller just jumped.
September 1 9, 1 881, Springfield, Texas, wherever the hell that is.
My family's from Springfield. What the hell is your family doing in Texas in 1 881?
The Anderson side-- Jason and Rose-- but that's a long story.
You better get your ass back out there. Prepare for immediate relaunch.
- Oh, no. Not this shit again. - I've given you a new watch. If Miller jumps again,
you'll be able to lock on and follow him as long as you're able to catch his time wake.
The more wake you catch, the closer you'll be to him.
If you catch the tail end, you'll be miles apart. Shoot him.
[ Grunts ] Where's Doc?
Well, you should know.
You arrested her for T.E.C code violation 40, section eight.
Time travel with the intent to alter the future.
She was sentenced to death for trying to save her husband in the war.
Because your parents were killed in it.
My dad died in a bathroom at his university when I was 11. He had a massive aneurysm.
My mother lives in Georgetown. I had dinner with her two nights ago.
Miller's altered history so that he was never arrested.
Jeffiers was never born, so we never caught Miller trying to assassinate Hitler.
Who is Jeffers and Hitler?
If this time line is historically correct, then why am I after Brandon Miller?
You killed his wife in a jump in Germany in 1 940.
What you were doing in Germany in 1940 we have no idea.

Oh, boy.
What can I do for you, neighbor? I'll need a room for the night.
Well, you come to the right place. How 'bout a whiskey?
Uh, no, thank you. Just the room.
If you ain't drinkin', you ain't stayin'.
Well, I.. guess I'll have a whiskey.
Good idea.

Hey, cowboy. Buy a girl a drink?
No, thanks. How 'bout you, stranger?
Buy a pretty little girl a drink.

We don't serve your kind in here.
- What kind's that? - What kind is that?
Well, I could tell you, China man, but I might just have to kill you.
So, if I were you, I would just back out those doors..
before you buy the business end of Ol' Smokey, here.
Go on. Get outta here. Jim doesn't mess around. He'd just as soon kill ya as look at ya.

No. Well, yes.
It's a long story. Where's Josh?
Uh, he went upstairs to the bar for drinks.
You stay here. Josh! Josh Chan!
Josh!
Josh! Honey, are you okay?
That is him. That is the dude!
All right, man. That's enough.
Ryan.
Come and get me.
Up here.
Gotcha.
[ Screams ]
[Young Ryan ] Daddy. Wake up.
Ryan? Can you hear me?
We need to get him to a treatment room right now.
Doc? I thought you were dead.
Somehow you were able to punch out before you fell unconscious.
Ryan, what happened? Oh, please, O'Rourke, leave him alone.
Can't you see he's been shot? He doesn't even know where he is.
We lost Miller. What happened? We had him in 1988, and he just-- [ Blows Air]
Went off the screens. He must be masking his time wake somehow.
What happened to your eye patch?
Eye patch? What the hell's wrong with him?
He barely made it back. We're lucky he's alive.
All right, he needs medical attention right now.
Well, it's over. Ryan's my last guy.
[Travis ] Then we have to send him again. Send him where?
We don't know where Miller is. Besides, look at him.
Even if he survives the launch,
he's so disoriented he wouldn't be any good to us.
[Miller] Out of the respect and love I had for your father, No!
I'm giving you a second chance.
[ Gasps ]
Hey. What happened? Where's Miller?
No one knows. I have to find him. He's going to destroy my family.
My parents-- God, my parents will be next. No.
You're in no condition to help anyone. You need your strength.
What happened to my watch?
[ Chuckles ] It stopped the bullet. Saved your life.
[Miller] What I would give..
to be able to sit and talk with you,
knowing what I know now.
He killed my father.
What? How? Miller killed my father.
What are you talking about? I know where Miller is.
Wait! No, no, no. Wait. Sit down. You're not making any sense.
You have to launch me back before it's too late.
Oh, no, no. No, we cannot launch you again.
May 7, 2002, 3:20 p.m. That's when Miller killed my father.
Why? Why would he kill your father then? You were already born.
It would do him no good. Miller was looking for me!
You're making this sound like it already happened.
It did already happen! It's about to happen again if I don't stop him!
You've been launched too many times.
You gotta launch me again, or Miller's gonna kill me when I'm 11 in 2002.
No. He didn't kill you before, why would he kill you now?
He's already changed history, Betsy. Last time I came back, you were dead.
[ Chuckles ] Dead? Oh--
You tried to alter history to save your husband from dying in the war.
Ryan, my husband did die in the war.
In this time line. But in the real time line, there was no war.
You gotta believe me, Betsy.
Listen to me. You're the one who always said to me that if a timecop does his job right,
no one knows if he got it right except him.
This same timecop would also be the only one to know if he got it wrong.
This one got by me, Bets.
I hope you know what you're doing.
I'll see you for dinner.
What?
[Ryan ] Hey, Travis. Wake up.
O'Rourke, you should see this.
Come on, Travis. Los Angeles, May 7, 2002,
University of Southern California.
- Ryan, what the hell are you doing? - Get me there before 3:.20 p.m.
- I can't do it, kid. It'll kill ya. - Launch me.
[ Grunts ] Let him go.
Launch him.
[Travis ] Prepare for another relaunch, guys.
[Female Computer Voice ] Launch activation T-minus 11, 10--
Don't forget that.
Eight, seven, six--
[ Doc ] Good luck!
Initiating time phase.
[ Computer] Time phase initiated.
[ Computer] Cellular integrity unstable.
[ Screaming ]
- He's not gonna make it! - Emergency shut down.
It's too late, sir. We already initiated it.
[ Computer] Launch failing.
[ Chiming]
There are far too many variables, Mr. Miller,
to theorize what might have happened historically,
had events played out differently.
I'm not theorizing, Professor Chan. I'm just saying if time travel is possible,
we have a moral obligation to right the wrongs of the past.
So are you suggesting that if it were possible to change historic events, we should?
[ Laughing ] Yes, absolutely.
Without knowing the results of those changes?
Changes that would have a profound effect on our world as we know it.
I don't see the problem with that, as long as the changes are for the better.
All right. Let's run with your idea.
Let's say hypothetically that we do go back in time to make things right.
Whose moral guidelines are we working within? Yours? Mine?
What happens If we have a difference of opinion?
Whose rules are we playing by?
I think we all share a common ground morally and ethically,
so some good would come out of it.
What's the point of researching time travel, if not to right the wrongs?
We're historians, right?
Wouldn't you like to observe history first hand,
be there to authenticate history's accuracy?
Yeah, that'd be cool.
But to stand around and do nothing seems like a colossal waste of knowledge.
I mean, can I at least stop the guys from flying the planes into the buildings?
Or the fanatic from walking into a restaurant wearing a bomb?
As much as we all wish those horrific events never happened, the fact is they did.
Then let's prevent them from happening.
But we are who we are today because of them.
Our anger, our compassion, our awareness, our knowledge.
We alter history, it all changes--good and bad.
[ Sighs ] Yeah, I-- I guess so.
Think about it.
[ Chiming ]
We'll have to pick this up next week.
[Woman Laughing]
So, who wants ice cream?
[ Young Ryan ] I do, but I have to go to the rest room first.
You do? Yeah.
We'll be just a minute. I'll wait here.
Come on, then.
See you next week, Professor. Good debate today.
Thanks. Hey, Ryan. Hi.
Come on, Ryan. You okay?
Yeah. Come on. It's cool.
I'll be back as soon as I can.
[Sasha ] What's wrong, baby?
Hold on a second. I'll be right back.
You gonna be quick? Yeah. Yeah.
All right.
Hello, Professor. It's good to see you again.
Miller? What the hell is this?
What I would give to be able to sit and talk with you..
knowing what I know now.
Why Do you look so different?
Shh.
- I have an appointment with your son. - Ryan?
[Professor Chan ] What are you doing?
[Miller] Come out, come out wherever you are.
No. No!
Miller, what are you-- Professor, I was hoping it wouldn't come to this.
[ Buzzing ] [ Gasps ]
[ Chiming ]
Oh, my God. What did you do to him?
You'll figure it out one day.
I can kill him before you can even get into that stall.
You'd be altering history.
You'd be going against everything you stand for.
Oh, but it's different when it effects you personally, right?
You fucking hypocrite.
Go on. Go on. Do it.
You kill him, you kill me.
Your father never dies.
Something to think about, isn't it?
The ultimate validation.
This is between you and me.
Atta boy.
Come on, Ryan. Let's see what you got.
Let's put an end to it all right here. Come on, baby!
Don't let me down.
Yes.
You spent your entire life playing by the rules.
What have you got to show for it? Nothing.
Sasha.
Oh, my beautiful Sasha.
You are looking at the man that took two years of our life away from us.
You tell her what you did to her. You tell her!
I didn't want it to be this way.
I gave you every opportunity.
Come on!
Thatta boy. I knew you wouldn't let me down.
Yes.
It doesn't have to be this way. You can change all this.
[ Coughing, Gasping ]
[Ryan Narrating] History is being altered every second,
by a look, a simple gesture..
or that unintentional footprint left in the sand.
All secrets hidden in time, locked in time.
[ Chiming ] And unless you were there, you'll never know the truth.
There you are. I've been looking everywhere for you. Where've you been?
Around.
You okay? Yeah.
You look like you've been on one too many jumps this month.
You got that right.
Hey, Jeffers, it's good to see you.
Kiss my ass, Ryan.
[ Chuckles ]
Hey, Ryan.
Hey, Edwards.
Damn it, O'Rourke, you are not giving these guys enough turn around time.
We're suspending them in their own reality, and ripping them back and forth through time.
I just got the results of Casey's CAT scan. That's a cerebral hemorrhage.
It's your responsibility to start reigning these guys in.
Will you give it a rest, Doc? Give it a rest?
And you were supposed to check in with me as soon as you got back.
I think I like you better with the lip ring.
- Lip ring? - Where the hell have you been?
Saving the world. [ Chuckles ]
You still want me to give it a rest?
-Just put it in your report. - We still on for tonight?
I don't date-- Timecops.
I know. 8:00? 8:.00.
[Alarm Beeping]
[ Computer Voice ] Time breach in progress.
You're light, euphoric
I've waited for so long
I'm crashing
It's the sweet foam in those eyes
Like a six-ton mega bomb
You're supersonic
I weathered through this time
The force erratic
Like a deuce from a laser storm
The sound subsonic
Like a car crash in the rain
Your karma is solid
You gotta wonder It's all your own
Heaven knows
Heaven
Still I felt so right
I've never known before
Never felt so right
I've never known before
Your thigh, your hips
Like a meltdown power zone
Pressed on me
Like the very thought of it all
Like a voice in a hurricane
Your heart, platonic
I've waited for so long
The source, excited
Like life on a runaway train
The spike, exotic
Rush into my mind
Your own, your soul
You're ice in a desert plain
Heaven knows
Heaven
Still I felt so right
I've never known before
Never felt so right
I've never know before
[ Vocalizing ] (HchC)
- What war? - I know you don't want to think about it,
