Bollocks!

Hmm, the rubbish men are here.

Oh, shit. I didn't put the bins out.

Run down in your pants and ask them to wait.

I ain't doing that again.

Big day today.

- You nervous? - Yeah. A little bit.

If I show you my tits,

will you make me some toast before you go?

- Marmalade or jam? - Marmalade.

All right, Paddington.

Exciting day today

in lots of different ways...

You need start-up money

for a mobile phone application.

That's correct.

And what does it do, exactly?

It's a pattern spotter. Futurist stuff.

Market opportunities for growing businesses.

How do you spot the patterns?

You step back far enough away and you watch.

Conflicts brewing,

certain products starting to sell better than others,

certain politicians starting to do better than they should,

the age of shipping containers, the health of monarchs.

Everything is data. It can all be analysed.

Give me an example.

Uh...

All right, DeWhitt and Weston.

Export and trading company with an octogenarian CEO

with multiple children from multiple marriages

sitting on the board.

Now, there's a company heading for a period

of uncertainty if ever I've seen one.

And what's the app called?

Uh, we're gonna call it "Hazard Lights."

We think it's going to change your life.

I'm so proud of you. You big fucking nerd.

Thank you.

Spreading through the continent.

The World Health Organization are saying it's too early

to predict whether or not the virus is gonna continue

with this growth. But we are hopeful...

Congratulations.

Shut up.

- No... - Yep.

Are you gonna make me another cup of tea, or?

Fuck off!

- Karl. - Congratulations, man.

- Cheers, mate. - She's a good woman.

Yeah, she's, she's all right, I guess.

No, I mean it. She's a good woman, mate.

You look after her?

I can barely look after myself but, okay.

Daily infections continue

to grow at an alarming rate.

The government advises...

Hey!

I thought we said a small tree.

Yeah, we did, but then you left me to buy it by myself

and this happened, so...

I'm gonna burn that bloody mask.

UK's estimated deaths are over 1700 today.

The highest since the start of the pandemic.

With existing hospitals beyond capacity...

and emergency hospitals out of O2...

It's gonna be all right.

George, do you think we're gonna... die?

Bollocks!

Jesus fucking Christ.

It's okay, we can just take it to the tip.

Big day today.

Huh?

Pitch day? Meeting at the bank?

- Uh... - You okay?

Yeah.

If I show you my tits,

will you make me some toast before you go?

It's an exciting day today in lots of different ways.

We've already done this?

Yeah, we've...

I'm sorry. This is, this is very...

Look, I'm having a strange day.

We've met, though. Do you remember?

You gave me a loan.

I have no record of that.

You did. You gave me a big loan,

I rented an office and my company...

Right.

Everything was really good.

Hey!

How did it go?

- George? - I feel something's wrong.

What is it?

We've done this before.

What do you mean?

- How did the meeting go? - Terrible. We've done...

all this before.

We did this day.

We got married,

- gonna have a baby. - We're gonna have a what?

People were getting sick again. It was Christmas,

it was really bad.

Have you taken something?

- No! - George?

Sarah, I haven't taken anything. I...

I don't know, I'm just tired.

- A little drunk, that's all. - You didn't get the loan?

No. I...

No.

- Could you just take it? - I don't need to.

Please?

George, I'm not gonna take a test

just cause you've asked me to.

I'm not pregnant, which is a good thing, by the way.

- Why? - I don't know.

Uh...

It's just not a good time right now, is it?

Money's tight.

It's not something we've planned.

This is weird.

George?

George?

George, I want you to see someone.

Who?

I don't know. A psychologist? A therapist?

They can't help me.

They might.

What am I gonna tell them?

Tell them about your dreams.

They weren't dreams, Sarah!

I lived six months,

and look, look, look...

This is going to grow.

It's going to mutate and it's going to spread,

and in about two months, the country's gonna be back

in a lockdown and people will be wearing face masks again...

Stop it! You're scaring me.

Please, please talk to someone.

- I thought I was talking to you. - Someone that can help.

I don't recognise him anymore.

It's like he just woke up one morning a different person.

Sarah, I hate to say this,

but from everything you've told me,

it sounds like he's checking out of the relationship.

It sounds like he's trying to push you away.

Well, it's really working.

What are you doing?

Uh, it says here:

Doctors Warn of Potential Epidemic on the Horizon. Look...

It's coming.

Sarah...

what are you doing?

I'm gonna stay at my mum's.

Sarah, look, I know it sounds crazy,

but you just have to trust me. You have to trust me, Sarah,

I'm just trying to keep us safe, that's all I want.

George, you need help! Everyone's worried about you...

- What do you mean "everyone?" - I...

Karl thinks you have a personality disorder,

he has a cousin who suffered from...

Oh, Karl. Yeah, I bet fucking Karl said that!

God knows why he'd want you to think that! Well, the thing is,

Karl's gonna be coughing his lungs up

into a fucking mass grave if you don't listen...

Sarah...

Let her go.

What?

Trust me. It's not gonna work.

You're not ready for what's happening,

how do you think she's gonna feel?

Anyway, I'm pretty sure you're going to get

- another chance with her. - Sorry, who are you?

You've been searching for something, George.

Time travel, time loops, time jumps, Tim jumps,

I'm pretty sure that last one was a typo.

And you're worried about the viral outbreak.

And you should be.

It's already much worse than the news is letting on.

Seriously, who are you?

I'm someone with answers to your questions.

Did you go back too? Did you, did you feel it too?

Tell you what. If it happens again,

go straight to this address.

Please, please tell me who you are.

Maybe I'll see you, George.

The number of MERS-22 related deaths

rise exponentially.

Government calls for tighter restrictions

to be put in place for the Christmas period.

The number of deaths are at 1800 a day.

And show no signs of slowing down.

With the existing health services completely overrun...

Bollocks!

George?

- Can I kiss you? - Sure?

Oh, I love you.

Oh!

You need to brush your teeth.

I love you too. Are you all right?

Sorry. I have to go.

Remember, you have the meeting at the bank today!

Yeah!

Freaks you out at first, doesn't it?

I need to know what's going on.

When did you start to notice time was jumping backwards?

This is the second time it's happened.

Did you enjoy living the last six months again?

It was a nightmare.

- Sorry to hear that. - What the fuck is going on?

What's going on? Yeah, okay. So, here's the thing,

and don't take this the wrong way,

- but you're a mutant. - A mutant?

Yeah, not like, fucking Wolverine or anything.

I just mean the cells in your body

have changed in a fairly... unusual way.

.000001%

of the world's population can recall time jumps.

Usually, the ability is manufactured and given

to suitable candidates.

Very, very occasionally,

someone will develop the ability organically.

- You, in this case. - Recall time jumps?

Discarded timelines. You've experienced over...

twenty time jumps in your life so far,

you just didn't remember them.

Why is time jumping backwards?

- Because we made it. - "We?"

- The Lazarus Project. - Wait. What?

We're a top-secret multinational organisation dedicated

to preventing and undoing mass extinction events

via diplomatic, scientific, or militaristic means.

Oh, and we can make time go backwards.

When did the world end?

Oh, I thought you'd start with the time thing but, okay.

The world ended in 1963

when Russia and America launched nuclear warheads at each other.

It ended in 1979 when Pakistan seriously overreacted

to their Prime Minister being assassinated by an Indian agent.

It ended in 1983 when a scientist

at the Centre for Disease Control decided

to take smallpox for a walk.

And it ended yesterday,

when we failed to develop a vaccination

for a mutant strain of MERS. Again. Our bad.

Those are just a few off the top of my head.

And you stopped all of them with... with time travel?

Only when we exhausted all other methods.

How does that work, exactly?

Is this where you keep the time machine?

We don't really call it that.

- Why not? - 'Cause that's not what it is.

So, if it isn't a time machine, what is it?

It's a singularity.

- Right... - In space.

- Got it. - No, you don't.

That's the time machine.

And that moment there, that's the checkpoint.

You know, like in a video game?

You die in the game, you go back to the last checkpoint

you reached every time until you reach a new one?

- Yeah. - Well, our checkpoint

is that moment. 1st of July, every year.

So, if we used it now...

We'd wake up yesterday.

And every time we go back, we'd wake up on the morning

of the 1st July, 2022.

Until we go a whole year and get to July 1st, 2023.

And that becomes our new checkpoint.

So, you couldn't use it to go back to, like,

London in the 1800s?

I'm a brown woman, why the fuck would I want to?

Yeah, okay, fair enough.

So how, how do you control it?

Do you happen to have a degree in Quantum Physics

- by any chance? - No.

Really not much point in me

trying to explain it to you, then.

So, why didn't you undo 9/11?

The world didn't end.

Thousands of people died. There was a war.

Not a nuclear war.

- So what, you didn't want to... - The world didn't end.

We can't reset every time something bad happens.

Then what?

We travel back whenever there's a mass murder?

Or a plane crash? Or a fire in a school?

Or your dog dies or you burn your toast?

Are you equating the attack on the World Trade Centre

with burning your toast?

We're not here to make the world a better place,

we're here to stop it from ending.

What about Coronavirus, why didn't you go back and stop that?

You got a vaccine in nine months.

You think we didn't go back?

This is a lot to take in.

Yeah.

This morning, I was supposed to go to an interview

- about a business loan. - George.

Almost no one on the planet has the ability you have.

This is an incredibly rare gift.

So, I wouldn't worry about the loan, is what I'm saying.

How'd you like to come and save the world with us instead?

I don't know anything about saving the world.

You pick it up as you go along.

Did you get it?

Yeah...

Yeah, yeah, I think so...

That's amazing.

I mean this could be life-changing, right?

Uh, yeah.

Yeah, completely life changing.

It's a dual injection. Two jabs, six weeks apart.

- 80-85% effective. - And cost?

The pharmaceutical company has agreed a two-year moratorium

- on raising the price. - Oh, they're all heart,

aren't they? What about the body count?

We'll lose just under 20,000.

Better than 20 million.

Oh, um, while I've got you,

a nuclear warhead nicknamed Big Boy

was hijacked while in transit yesterday.

Do we know who took it?

Well, we're pretty sure it wasn't UNICEF.

The good news is that it is non-operational

without a unique detonator.

Wait, is no one worried about this?

Oh, these things happen. Probably come to nothing.

Warheads get stolen a lot?

More than you would care to know.

Ah, hello!

- Uh... - Everyone, this is George.

- You're the mutant? - Uh, yeah.

So, you just started waking up on the checkpoint

with no idea what was going on?

Pretty much, yeah.

That's crazy, man.

Elizabeth Wesley. You can call me ma'am to my face,

and Wes behind my back.

Welcome to The Lazarus Project, George.

Cheers, uh, ma'am.

Hey, I'm Greta.

- Blake. - Erik Eriksen,

but everybody calls me The Dane.

Okay...

And that ray of sunshine is Shiv,

our other resident mutant.

Um, so how, how do you all end up...

Here? We got chosen.

- Ex-Danish Special Forces. - Jaeger Corps.

- Royal Regiment of Scotland. - Black Watch.

- Reykjavik Metropolitan Police. - MI5.

So, what do you do, George?

App developer.

Oh...

Well, that's sure to come in handy.

Don't worry about him. I love apps.

Yeah, Grindr.

Oh, are you gonna be coming to our celebration?

- Uh... - Oh, we have a little tradition.

Every time we save humanity from being wiped off

the face of the earth,

we go for two-for-one cocktails and Karaoke.

Huh, how else would you know what you're fighting for?

Exactly.

It's a lot to take in.

Yeah.

I'm not a super-agent, or whatever you are.

How do you know if I can actually do this?

Look, at the moment,

you're a squidgy ball of unhelpful dough,

that couldn't save the world

if his life depended on it, which, of course, it does.

But you're in good enough physical condition.

You're highly educated, show an aptitude

for problem solving, can work well under pressure.

Time skipped back six months, but you didn't fall apart.

You looked for answers.

That matters.

I fell apart a little bit...

Yeah, I know.

What does it feel like?

When you save the world?

Feels pretty good.

You'll see.

Not singing tonight?

It helps them unwind, that's fine.

Me? I don't.

- Don't? - Unwind.

Yeah, I get that vibe from you.

There's a warhead missing.

Yeah.

So, there's that.

Apparently, we're the only two mutants.

I didn't come from MI5, or the police, or the army.

I was born with this gift,

you've had it for five minutes.

No, no. We're not the same.

And I doubt we'll be working closely together.

Not for a long while.

Huh, I can handle it.

You've seen the world end twice,

how was that for you?

- Not very nice. - Not very nice.

It changes a person.

Maybe everyone else thinks they can deal with it

with a song and a drink, but eventually,

it catches up with you.

Gets in your head.

Are you married?

I'm thinking of asking her.

Not many happy marriages in The Lazarus.

Thank you, cheers. Good chat. Thank you.

Exhausting.

I love you. D'you know that?

Mm, yeah. But it's always nice to hear.

Oh, by the way, Karl's having a dinner party next week.

And I told him we'd go.

Sure. I'd hate to miss Karl's dinner party.

George! Glad you could make it.

D'you want a glass of wine?

- Just a very big one, thanks. - Yeah.

Oh, congrats on the netball. Very cool.

Oh, thank you, and don't forget the tennis.

- Oh, of course. - That'll be nationals next week,

and then the third goal this year!

- Cheers to that. - Cheers to me.

Thank you very much.

George.

I've been meaning to ask you a question.

I've got a little bit of money squirrelled away.

It's not much, but, um, I wondered if your little, um...

uh, app would recommend any good investment opportunities.

- DeWhitt and Weston. - DeWhitt and...

Weston.

- Weston? - Yeah, it's an American firm.

Doing really exciting work right now, but...

- Yeah. - Their stock is still competitively priced.

You think it would be a good market to get into?

It can't hurt to try.

All right.

- DeWhitt and Weston. Cheers! - Yeah.

Cheers.

Archie?

The algorithm I was using on the app I was developing...

Part of its job was to monitor suspicious activity

on business accounts:

people skimming off the top, insider trading,

that kind of thing.

Anyway, it flagged up an account in Russia

that was bringing in unusual funds.

So, I got past the encryption and it turns out,

that account is linked to a security company

that was safe-guarding Big Boy.

Ma'am, did you see the last name there?

What is it?

It's an account we believe is linked to a man called...

Dennis Rebrov.

He's on almost every terror watchlist in the world.

He used to have your desk.

- He's ex-Lazarus? - One of our brightest and best.

Right, oh,

this is a thing now.

- Good catch. - Ha, thanks.

No, I mean it, good catch.

Hey, you remember what tonight is?

Yeah, 'course I do.

First checkpoint as a Lazarus Agent.

Hey. You see, you see Rebrov, yeah,

he's the only one of us to have gone bad, right?

No.

There were others.

He's just the worst.

- Hi, miss! Morning. - Morning.

Your best pal...

Right, you, I'll see you later.

Woohoo...

Morning.

Hey.

DeWhitt and Weston just tanked.

I don't know what that means.

It means George told me to invest in a company

that just went belly up. It means I've lost my savings!

- I'm sure he didn't... - No, no, no, it's his job,

to know when these kind of things happen.

- He's done it on purpose! - He wouldn't do that, Karl.

Listen, you tell him I want to talk to him, all right?

I want my fucking money back.

I'm not sure there's anything he can do.

Look, let's talk about this later, okay?

No, I want to talk about it now.

- Are you okay? - Jesus, Sarah.

I'm so sorry.

She could have been killed, man! What's wrong with you?

- You could have killed her. - I'm okay.

We'll talk about this later.

You know, I put all my money into that company, yeah?

Well, that was a dumb thing for you to do, ain't it?

Rebrov's team are renting an apartment

in the fifth arrondissement.

We've been monitoring their movement and identified

up to five men and women entering and exiting

at various times of day.

- Any sign of Big Boy? - Nope.

But one of these people know where he is.

And we are going to go and get them.

I want you suited and booted and on the plane in the hour.

We are going to Paris.

That's you too, George.

I'm not a field agent.

Who told you that?

I just sort of... assumed.

Go and grab your stuff.

You're about to pop your cherry.

- What happens now? - They storm the building.

What do we do?

Well, I coordinate the teams from this seat

and you sit and don't touch anything from that seat.

- Lima 4-2, on my signal. - Affirmative.

You done this sort of thing a lot, right?

Mm-hmm.

Lima 4-2, enter the building now.

I bet you seen some shit in the Jaeger Corps.

Yeah, I wake up screaming sometimes.

You should probably talk to someone about that.

Unit two. Entering the first floor

- on the Southeast side. - Roger.

Affirmative.

Approaching the second level now.

Roger.

Unit One, hold your position. We've got interference.

What's going on in there?

Okay, we've got visual back.

Ground floor, stand by.

Lima 4-2, hold your position.

Code red.

Multiple hostiles on the ground floor.

Unit One, move to provide back-up.

Lima 4-2 moving now.

Man down.

What's going on?

Who's got Rebrov?

Negative.

Lima 4-2, suspect sighted.

Ground floor.

I'm going to the basement.

Archie, come in.

I'm hit.

Lima 4-2 needs backup now.

Needs backup right now.

Archie!

Don't!

Dane!

Jump.

Buckle up.

Lima 4-2 is dead.

I think we've lost the detonator.

We have local police...

Oh, shit!

Oh, it's a red light. Watch the red light,

watch the red light!

Watch out, watch out for the... watch out for the bus!

Jesus fucking Chri...

Glove compartment.

I thought you told me not to touch anything!

Well, now I'm saying something different! Shoot the prick!

You want to take a short cut?

No, no, I don't... I really, really don't!

Take a shot, George.

Take the fucking shot, George!

Watch out for the cops, watch out for the cops!

I literally said watch out for the cops.

Get out of the way.

Target down, we're approaching...

Man down, man down!

- Where's Rebrov? - He's taking cover.

The police are surrounding him!

He's gonna detonate.

Wha... what's happened?

- I'm calling it Code Black. - What?

He's gonna detonate.

Fuck.

- Hey. - Well, that was fucking shit.

I got shot in the head.

Oh, the Dane told me you handled yourself well.

It didn't stop the bomb going off though, did it?

Yeah, you lose marks for that.

What are we going to do now?

We'll have people going to the Paris address now,

following up some leads.

You should take a day off.

First couple of loops take it out of you.

If we'd have stopped Rebrov, you'd have stayed dead.

Try not to think about that.

We're gonna get him though, right?

Thing you've got to remember about Rebrov is he's one of us.

He's aware of the time loops.

He'll know we're coming for him.

- Hey, miss. - Morning.

Shit.

- Sorry, babe, I gotta go. - I thought you had the day off?

Yeah, something came up.

You work too hard. See you later.

You got Rebrov?

French police raided the flat first thing

after a tip off from us.

Picked up some of his guys and they gave us a location.

The grasses.

It's his job, to know when these kind of things happen,

- he's done it on purpose! - He wouldn't do that.

Listen, listen...

That's fantastic.

Yeah. We're moving on him now.

Thought you might like to be here for it.

Absolutely, um...
