1929, right?

There ya go. Come on.

Let's get him to his feet.

- Ooh. Oh, boy.

- Ellis?

Are you getting a read on us?

Got ya loud and clear, boss.

Everybody okay?

Yeah.

How's our heart rate looking?

You're all

a little accelerated.

Blood pressure is low,

but that's okay.

You're a go from our side.

- You good?

- Yeah, I'm good.

Team, are you a go

from the field?

Yeah, yeah,

I think we just have

to get him out of the window.

Malcolm, we're heading topside.

Talk to you then.

I certainly hope you don't

intend on smoking that in here.

Once again,

the Eskimo Pie Orchestra

is ready to entertain you.

For the opening number,

director Harold Stokes

has chosen a tune

that's full of life

and movement... What A Day.

- You all right?

- Yeah. Yeah.

I'm good.

People are looking at us.

It's all right.

A look won't cause a ripple.

It's interactions

we have to worry about.

Just keep walking.

Oh, boy.

Fresh air.

I'm starting

to feel better already.

Wow.

Unbelievable.

Oh, the air even smells...

off.

It's different

than what we're used to.

Skin cell variations,

changes in the ozone.

It's almost like...

We gotta get a car.

We need one

that no one's gonna miss

for the next eight hours.

What we have to do

is run registrations.

We have to profile each car

appropriately.

- Danny.

- Good call.

No, guys,

we can't just assume...

Can I get intel on a plate?

District of Columbia.

Uniform 8-0-3-2.

Uh, yeah.

Let's see.

Yeah.

Damn, you're good.

The car belongs

to Edgar Ramone.

He's the night shift manager

at the hotel.

There were no unions yet.

Night shifts last at least

eight hours, maybe more.

That match should work.

How did he get that so fast?

Let's try

not to over-think it.

Any thoughts?

It'll be like hotwiring

a lawnmower.

I'll keep watch.

Don't break anything.

Hey, who's Tommy?

You mentioned a Tommy

when we landed.

Oh, uh, I don't know, just...

just a weird thing, I guess.

Did you see something

when we passed through?

Look...

I was five years old

at a public pool

back in Echo Park.

I jumped in too deep,

started sinking,

swallowing water,

till this older kid, Tommy,

pulled me out.

The thing is,

I haven't thought about that

in what, 15 years?

But I wasn't remembering it,

doc.

Like, I was feeling it.

Like, I felt it.

I was five years old

and I was drowning.

That's crazy, isn't it?

I got it.

Let's move.

A little more complicated

than a lawnmower.

- As long as it gets us there.

- Priya, we're on the move.

Get the maps ready.

I'm the driver.

No, I've seen you operate

a stick shift.

No, no, you're

not getting it, man.

It's 1929.

We're South

of the Mason-Dixon line.

I'm the driver.

- Okay.

- All right.

This is Fairfax county.

My mother was born

close to here.

You mean will be.

That's right,

none of that's even...

happened yet.

She hasn't even been born,

and...

I already know

how she's gonna die.

They found an inoperable tumor

on her spine when I was four.

I'm sorry.

Oh, it's okay, Mr. Knox.

It...

it's just...

do you want to

know something amazing?

I could whisper...

The right thing

into the right ear,

and I could change all that

right now.

I could save her.

But then...

who would I be?

Losing her made me who I am.

Would I be... would I be

different, happier?

I-I...

I don't know.

What would you change?

Doc, I wouldn't know

where to start.

That's not good.

No, that's not good.

What's not good?

NASA, spit it out.

Where's he going?

Is there a problem, Ellis?

Is there some kind

of problem, Ellis?

Priya, you see the numbers

I put on Charlie's hand?

I need you to punch 'em

into the auxiliary panel...

And add the prefix...

I can do it myself.

NASA, you're gonna have

to start talking some sense

sometime soon, man.

- The red zone is fluctuating.

- What does that mean?

We're supposed to hit

the red zone in six hours.

Which gives them

time to get in, get out,

with a few hours to spare.

Yes, that was

the agreed-upon plan.

The levels are changing.

Something we did

when they passed through

must have damaged it.

I was able to bring the power

down as low as I could

without losing the window.

But now the red zone

is gonna hit in...

Three hours?

That's barely enough time

for them to complete

the mission and get out.

We have to tell them.

It's enough.

She just said

it's barely enough.

It's enough for them

to accomplish the mission.

I don't want them getting bogged

down in details right now.

Look, I understand we're

talking about your friend here,

but no one guaranteed

this was gonna be a round trip.

If it becomes pertinent,

I will tell them myself,

but until then,

I suggest that all of us

get comfortable

with the possibility

that they may not

be coming back alive.

I haven't seen anybody

come around.

Good boy, Marsden.

Stay out here and keep watch.

- Yes, sir.

- It's not gonna take long.

We should be there by now.

It's 20 minutes

until Marsden robs the store.

Everything looks like

a service road out here.

I don't know,

maybe we missed a turnoff.

Can you describe where you are?

I see trees...

Like, the woods.

How about

a little more specific?

You want to know

how tall they are?

There's no signage, Priya.

Ii hear a train nearby.

A train?

What's up?

Maybe they made the wrong left

at the interstate...

or a right.

Stop driving.

Stop driving right now.

Doctor, I don't know

where things went wrong,

but if you're hearing a train

from the throughway,

it means

you're in Cooper county,

which means

you passed the turnoff

at least 9 miles ago.

At the next turn, make a left.

Maybe a right.

Make a right.

Can we get a new navigator,

please?

I can hear that, you know!

Danny, look out!

Oh, no, no.

Doctor, what's happened?

Charlie, I need you to run

a possible ripple

in the panopticon.

We just had an accident.

That is really not good,

people.

Okay, can you get me

a data point

to enter into the program?

Can you get me a license plate?

This is a problem.

Even the smallest ripple,

over 80 years...

It adds up.

Guys, I'm not seeing a plate.

Uh, that's odd.

Plates were definitely

required back then.

There is no ripple.

How can there be no ripple?

Even if the driver's okay,

he's still gonna

go to the police.

He won't call them.

Get down, get down, get down!

You can't shoot him!

Go, go, go! Go!

- How did you know?

- He's carrying liquor in 1929.

He's not going to the police

'cause he's a bootlegger.

Come on.

We're too late.

The police are here.

- Bryce, stay in the car.

- No, wait!

You can't go near this.

I'm gonna move in closer.

Cover me.

Knox, all this

has already happened.

Do you understand?

We can't change that.

We've missed our chance.

She's right, man.

I got this.

All right.

Go. Go.

Hold it!

I don't think Marsden

was in that car.

I didn't get a clean look.

Knox, get back in the car.

We'll go find him.

No, they don't have time
