Timecop: The Berlin Decision Page #2

[Grunts]

No need for violence.

[Grunting Continues]

[Both Gasp]

What in the hell just happened?

- Got it?

- Yeah, yeah.

- Here ya go, take it.

- Yeah. That's it.

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]

Date of execution: May 7, 2025.

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.

[Professor Chan]

So, are you suggesting that...

if it were possible to change

historic events, we should?

[Voice Echoing]

[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 sh*t, 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 Oversight Committee's ruling

does it say where he has to take his 30 days.

He happened to be there when the 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.

Now 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 sh*t 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]

We have a Time breach in progress.

- Scan central states.

- Breach point isolated.

[Man]

- Let's bring 'em home, people.

- Right, who and where?

It's internal, sir. One of our own.

Douglas. June, 1987.

- 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 sh*t!

[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 that same matter can't

occupy the same space at the same time.

Oh, sh*t!

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 1987.

That means every time criminal

he's ever brought in

will never have been arrested.

[Computer Voice]

Sixty second,

accelerated launch.

Probability:
68.3%.

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?

Loud and clear, boss.

- Jenson, pull up every arrest Douglas made.

- You got it, chief.

[Travis]

This one's gonna be dicey, buddy.

Stick with me tight.

[Computer]

Destination:

Hamden, Connecticut.

Accelerated launch activation,

T- minus 60 seconds and counting.
