Timecop: The Berlin Decision Page #3

T- minus 60 seconds.

Launch activation.

T- minus 50 seconds.

- [Groaning Continues]

- Hold his head up.

- He's not getting any oxygen!

- T- minus 40 seconds.

T- minus 30 seconds.

- Stay on those vitals, Jenson.

- Yeah, I'm on it.

[Computer]

Vital signs within normal

parameters.

- [Groaning Continues]

- Initiating time phase... now!

[Computer Voice]

Time phase initiated.

Launch activated.

Cellular cohesion unstable.

Cell integrity unstable.

Cell cohesion failure.

- [Indistinct Shouting]

- Hold him!

[Doc]

O'Rourke, you better get

somebody back in that chair!

[Computer Voice]

There are multiple illegal

time launches in progress.

- Where?

- What the f***?

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. Sh*t!

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.

But Douglas tracked down Tony Banks for me.

That means that I never arrested Banks

because Douglas never found him.

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 b*tch!

You hear me?

Accelerated launch activation!

T-minus 60 seconds!

[Computer]

Accelerated launch activation.

T- minus 60 seconds.

Here we go.

- You got him?

- Give me his vitals.

Pulse:
47.

Brain waves normal.

[Computer]

Accelerated launch probability:

68.3%.

You got about a 30-minute window

before the prison riot starts.

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.

- Launch him!

- [Computer] Launch activation...

Stand by for watch calibration.

On my mark.

Destination coordinates

are in your system...

now!

Coming up on time cue.

Time sync in... five, four,

three, two, one... mark!

[Computer]

Launch activation,

T- minus 30 seconds.

- Good to go, Ryan.

- Thanks, man. Let's do it, Doc.

Listen to me. A normal launch has

a failure rate of 4%.

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!

[Computer]

Eleven, 10, 9, 8, 7...

8:
00.

What?

Tonight. You can pick me up at 8:00.

Zero. Launch sync

[Travis]

Initiating time phase... now!

[Computer]

Time phase initiated.

Yeah!

[Ryan Screams]

[Voice over intercom]

Disturbance in the East complex...

So much for my 30-minute window.

Welcome to the party, a**hole!

[Grunting]

[Screaming]

Where is solitary?

[Man Laughs]

Ryan Chan! What's it been?

Five years?

[Grunting]

- [Convict Laughs]

- [Ryan Screaming]

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 b*tch, isn't it, Ryan?
