Sh*t.

It's still spinning.

There's a manual shutdown.

Then f***ing disable it.

Run!

It's not mine.

Come on.

All right. Okay, go.

Go, go, go.

- Ready?

- Yeah.

Here!

Here.

Take it.

It feels petrified.

What is it?

I think it's a boundary.

The time loop ends here.

So only time inside the circle

has been looping?

Hannah, there's a safe house

two blocks north.

It's marked as contaminated. It's not.

I will meet you there.

You're coming with me.

No. I can't let Sonny take the ARQ.

Renton, listen to me.

You can't go back inside.

The ARQ is off.

If you die, you die forever.

Go.

I won't leave you.

Hannah?

Go, go, go!

'Twas in the moon of wintertime

When all the birds had fled

That mighty Gitchi Manitou

Sent angel choirs instead

You must recognize me.

- He tortured me.

- Hey. Look at me.

Listen, you're okay.

Jesus your King is born

Jesus is born

Tell me you haven't forgotten.

You're okay. You're okay.

Okay.

It's over. Okay? It's over.

It's over. It's over.

Sonny turned the ARQ back on.

He must want the loop to reset.

It's okay.

Come on.

Come on.

ZMP fiver-Delta is in proximity.

Drop time imminent.

Sonny called in ZMPs.

Okay.

We download everything.

Burn it all.

There isn't time.

Take the ARQ to the Bloc.

Really?

If there's no world left,

there's no hope for us.

What?

- What?

- Oh, my God.

"Interruption."

These time logs are the nine loops

we've gone through.

Nine loops makes one sequence. There's...

There's more sequences.

So we've looped more than nine times?

How many?

Ren, how many times have we loop...

Thousands.

Maybe... maybe more.

No, no, no, no, no, no.

No, no, no, no, this can't be happening.

The last timeline

in every sequence is broken.

It's... it's when I shut down the ARQ

and Sonny rebooted it.

When the ARQ reboots,

our memories must reset.

That's why we don't remember the video.

The video was recorded

in the last sequence.

It was a message to us.

And a ZMP stopped the message.

They're in the house.

Damn it!

If Torus gets the ARQ...

they win the war.

We have to destroy it.

God damn it!

No.

- What are you doing?

- We let the loop reset.

We try again.

We've tried already, thousands of times.

We send a message to ourselves

in the next loop.

Hannah, you were right.

We have to try.

Hurry.

Listen carefully. Torus...

Hannah!

The message!

Torus found you.

Take the ARQ to the Bloc and trust Hannah!
