Seven days, five down.

So the question becomes... When to go?

The data's still coming in. On this side of the timeline, we're learning more.

But the clock on the other side is running down fast. We have two days

So now it becomes a judgment call.

Sir, what we're getting now is down to a trickle. Now, the sooner we get back in

time, the better off we're going to be. We don't want to land back there with

just a few hours left. I don't necessarily agree.

Finding that cadre in a city the size of Washington is like looking for a needle

in a haystack.

We need more data before we leave.

I say we wait for Russian intelligence.

Russians? Look, let's just go now. We hit the airports, we lock them all down,

and we arrest the bastards when they try to take off. Locking down airports

would be visible, Ramsey. The cadre would see it and switch to plan B.

These guys are well -equipped, well -trained, and committed.

Why not just go back in time and simply tell the president what's about to

happen? Get him out of town.

The Secret Service has cried wolf too many times in the past. He wouldn't do

The Russian summit is too crucial to him.

He'd also want to know where we got our crystal ball.

So why not tell him?

Son, you're talking about back step.

The president's a civilian, for God's sake.

We'll wait another 24 hours, see what the Russians come up with.

You shouldn't be taking these, Mr. Ramsey. They don't exactly induce sound

judgment.

Doesn't anybody get it around here?

Our national leadership's been wiped out. When that happens, you don't sleep,

you work.

I must see you, and I will see you at any cost.

No,

no, no. The trim is too sensitive now. Go back to the other unit.

Russian intelligence was able to find one of Kretsnev's people left behind in

Chechnya. Is he talking?

He didn't know where they were staying in Washington, but he did know their

was to return home on a certain freighter ship. A Russian sub is heading

it now.

When will the hardware be ready, Doctor?

Is a year an unacceptable answer?

How are you?

Have you gotten any sleep at all?

No.

They gave me a stimulant.

I really think you need to take a break now.

Okay?

This will get you to sleep, okay? We'll wake you in a few hours.

Where are you from?

Russia. I worked on a project very comparable to this one there.

The collapse came, the program was canceled, and I came here.

I see.

Relax.

Okay?

Hold this for me.

You're a brave man, Mr. Parker.

Donovan told me that you know the odds against this succeeding.

I'm still strong.

Watch your television.

Rest. I'll see you at daybreak.

Shadi? I may be brave, but you are beautiful.

Good night.

Throughout Washington, in the aftermath of the tragic bombing of the White

House, friends and family must now lay to rest their children, killed by the

lethal gas that enshrouded their school located just south of the White House.

These are smaller funerals, but no less sad than those whose time on this earth

allowed their footsteps to be great.

These children, ages 5 to 11 years old, spent their last days preparing for an

Easter pageant at their school, a pageant rehearsed for.

But that never took place.

As you can see, it is a heart -rending scene.

Small bodies in small caskets.

Innocence rounding the gears of larger events.

Let's send the commander.

My machine gun!

Come on, come on!

Thank you.

This is the caliber of man that you have selected.

Unbelievable.

That's Frank's ex -wife, Patricia.

It's his son, Jimmy.

They must have moved somewhere near the White House.

Frank didn't know that.

Would anyone here have reacted any differently?

Pardon me.

News from Russian intelligence, sir. The cadre was found and killed at sea, but

they did find where they'd been staying in Washington.

That's the data we've been waiting for.

We're in immediate go.

People!

That bastard killed my son, Donovan.

This better work.

Excuse me, sir. Can I get you to raise your left arm, please? Thank you.

This will get the chip the latest data. It'll retain what you don't. In case

you're damaged in the trip, follow that.

Good luck, sir.

it's just

All systems operational.

Prepare for final countdown.

Good luck.

Attention level two personnel.

All level two personnel.

Report to comm sector five.

Level two to comm sector five.

You're all set, sir.

Okay, doctor.

Deeply imbalanced.

It's got to be replaced.

Now!

It's a little tight in here, Donovan.

Are you okay?

It kind of reminds me of that hot box in Somalia.

I started feeling like an ape in that thing, Donovan.

It kind of never left me.

You're going to be fine, buddy. We have the checklist, Mr. Parker.

Yeah.

Okay.

Okay.

Anti -oscillation phase -canceling system on.

Yeah. Yeah, okay.

Phase -canceling on.

That man is not a patriot.

Prepare for final countdown.

T -minus 60.

Stop the countdown.

Now listen to me.

The man you have selected is treasonous. Don't stop. Go on. You have to

stop this now. Auxiliary reactor.

What the hell are you talking about?

Do you know what the hell I'm talking about? Get out of here.

Auxiliary reactor on.

Half of you are foreigners anyway.

Get out of here. You shut up.

You don't care at all.

Startup sequence now online.

I can feel it.

The Hermes gen is standing up.

You're doing fine.

I've ordered for five decimals.

Stop him at any cost. Stop Ramsey now.

The man in that device is a fake.

I have authorization from the highest court.

Kill him!

Countdown resumes at T -minus 30.

Reactive to 5%. 24.

Taking your right hand, Mr. Parker.

Eyes on the needles.

Main reactor to 100%. Four.

Two. God bless you. One.

Engage. Engage.

In Mojave. Mojave is in the...

Sahara. That's right, Sahara.

No, this isn't happening.

This is not happening.

I'm still in the hospital.

That's it.

They're giving me shock treatment.

I'll be okay.

A little fright, maybe, but I'll be okay.

Thanks very much, fellas.

Oh, can I bum a couple of quarters? Sure.

Don't bet it all at once.

Sergeant Myers, who's calling, please?

Conundrum.

Holy cow.

What day is it?

Thursday, April 9th.

Seven days ago.

Oh, my God.

Conundrum have landed.

Who is it?

My name is Parker, Frank B. Agency number 378 -34 -9081.

We have a condition one event.

The clock is at seven and a half hours and counting.

This program wasn't even going to be tried again for a year.

Yeah, well, something nasty must have happened. I'll tell you that.

Hello?

Pat, hi, it's me.

Look, I just wanted to say I know I screwed up and...

I apologize.

But you got to work with me on this. You can't send Jimmy to school today.

What time is it? Pat, just keep him home.

What are you talking about?

Someone may blow up the White House today.

What? Look, it's a long story. Just have Jimmy's school shut down.

Where are you? I heard you were in a mental hospital.

No, Pat, I'm out.

Where are you?

Vegas.

Oh, God, you drunken heiko.

Hi,

Angel.

Who's calling so early?

It's the wrong number, baby.

Hello? Phyllis, it's me, Parker.

My favorite son -in -law.

Hi, Frank.

You still not feeling so well? We heard that... Phyllis, listen to me. What I'm

about to tell you is a little difficult to understand, but bear with me.

I don't buy this.

We weren't ready. We never have gone at this time. The hardware isn't even

ready. Don't pass judgment.

We'll find out soon enough.

Yeah, I know you didn't vote for the president.

Phyllis, please, can you just get Pat to keep Jimmy out of school today?

Can I rely on it?

Will you leave for there now?

Good.

Yeah, I love you too.

All right, bye.

No, that last number's my visa. Just call them. It'll go through.

So, uh, what's the total now?

You got $9 ,550 Denver Nuggets over the Seattle Supersonics.

Fantastic. They won, you know.

No, I mean they will win.

Donovan.

Parker.

I haven't seen you in years.

Well, that's not entirely true.

What the hell is going on?

Victor Yakubovsky, male, 30s, believed to be Chechen, served two years in the

Russian Red Army as an enlisted man before being recruited to Spetsnaz.

We'd never have picked this man.

He's missing from the agency sanitarium on Hanson Island.

There had to have been a leak. Maybe somebody who worked here was also

institutionalized out there. I don't know.

Parker got the password. He baked the tattoo.

A light plane loaded with a sophisticated explosive device was blown

east side of the White House, releasing a poisonous gas that killed... Hey,

Paul.

From this moment onward, this man's word is gospel.

Get our Washington units over to where?

Topper Motel, 122 West Wisconsin Street.

Listen, we gotta talk.

You gotta go easy with that medication you're taking.

What are you talking about?

Where's the lock?

Here it is, on the table.

I've got something here.

Everyone's holding.

We've notified our Delta teams. There's six cadre members.

Right. They've already been dispatched to the Topper Motel.

Roger, Clearview, this is Maple Leaf.

We're in position at the Topper Motel, sir.

What's the room number?

Four and five, northwest corner.

They're in room four and five on the northwest corner. Use the infrared.

Roger, sir.

Olga Vukovic, meet Frank Parker.

We've already met, of course.

But it's very nice to meet you again.

Hello, Mr. Parker.

You know, in the past, I mean, in the future, you and I got kind of close.

You sort of liked me.

Well, maybe it was a little more than just like.

Mr. Parker, may I explain something to you?

No.

You see, whatever happened between us in the future doesn't mean it will happen

again.

But I've been there. I've seen it.

Mr. Parker, the future you know will be altered now. When you make even a tiny

change to the past, everything that follows it is also affected.

How?

The device materialized back in time, right?

Right. And as it appeared, it displaced molecules of air.

Those molecules pushed others, and before you know it, a path in the

Mountains has slightly more wind moving through it than it did before. So what?

Well, maybe that causes the planes in the east to arrive later. The ones

west sooner. It sets off a whole chain of things.

Ultimately, everything is changed.

Included in that are the relationships between people.

What's the matter?

Are you okay?

Well, I just put my entire life savings on a freaking basketball game.

Room 5.

Three tangos.

There are only three men visible at this time.

I can only see three of them.

According to our traveler, there are definitely six involved.

What if the missing men are already deploying? We've got to move now.

Try and take prisoners, find out where the others are.

Clear view.

Deploy.

Take prisoners.

At any cost.

Two.

But they're subdued. Are they talking?

Negative, sir. They're dead.

All of them?

We're sorry, sir.

All of them.

Three of them are still out there.

Lock down the airports.

Tight. Now it's that needle in the haystack.

Not necessarily.

After the assassinations, the Russians worked the case from their end. They

found one of the Chechens left behind. Now that man would still be there.

He'd know their alternate plan.

Get me the director of Russian intelligence in Moscow.

Ridiculous! I mean, we don't hear from him for two years, except for an

occasional alimony check, and then he calls me drunk.

No, he didn't sound drunk when I spoke to him, Patricia.

He is in that business that he's in. He may know something that we don't know.

You know, I don't want to hear any more about it.

I mean, Jimmy has a structured life now, and he's not going to grow up like his

father. He's going to school.

Patricia, I am your mother. And I'm Jimmy's mother.

Look, today is their Easter pageant they've been rehearsing for weeks.

How do I look?

Look at you.

You look fabulous.

Oh, God, there you are. Listen, can you cover for me? I've got to go to the

Easter bed. Of course. Tell Jimmy I said break a leg. Okay. Thank you.

Yes.

Yes, Mr.

Korychnikov. Olga, I need a translator.

They're patching us through to their parapatoon in Chechnya.

The White House. They would park it as close as possible on the side where the

prevailing winds would drag the poisonous gas over the building,

remote trigger.

The wind was blowing south by southeast 31 degrees.

South by southeast 31 degrees. That makes it the corner of Jackson and

Pennsylvania Avenue.

They could be anywhere in Lafayette Park.

They left at I -3.

There's them over there.

Yes, we have a cold red.

You're killing kids.

He's not okay.

Thank you, Parker.

Everywhere you go, things turn to crap.

I don't think Mommy likes you, Dad.

I miss you a lot.

I miss you, too.

I love you, Dad.

I love you, too.

at the Topper Motel early this morning after police responded to an anonymous

call about the men's activities.

A spokesman for the DEA confirmed that the agency was investigating this

incident. The victims have not been identified.

In an unrelated incident, a disgruntled postal worker, 35 -year -old Carl

Pretzner, was shot and killed near the White House today while the president

meeting with Russian President Noritsynkov.

According to police, Pretzner had been lingering in the tidal basin for several

hours. and fired shots as officers approached him for questioning.

In a game much closer than it ever should have been, Denver Nuggets forward

Frank McHenry, all alone under the hoop, somehow lets a full -court pass slip

through his fingertips and out of bounds.

Seattle Supersonics hold on at the buzzer for the win.

Shoot. Shoot right.

We come in? Sure.

How's the shoulder?

Great. Parker.

Ramsey.

Donovan, you're out already?

Yeah, I had my vest on. That thing just kind of knocked the wind out of me. A

token of our appreciation.

Then we'll take you to dinner.

Of course, if you accept it, it means you stay with the program.

We don't exactly give those away to fans.

Well, I want you to know, I'm as opposed to this.

You're telling me.

Dinner.

Let me just grab a shirt.

Well, you are going to like me.

We'll find out.

In time, Mr. Parker.

In time.
