TUA 35 heavy, descend
to 3,000 feet.

Minneapolis center, this
is Transuniversal 35 heavy

descending to 3,000.

Roger, TUA 35 heavy.

TUA 35 heavy, could you
give me your location?

Ron, where the hell are we?

25 miles due south on approach

descending through 5,000 feet.

35, what's your current heading?
What's his problem?

Minneapolis We're currently heading...

TUA 35, turn to
heading...

Say again, Minneapolis.

Jesus! Down!

Oh, my god.

Down! Go down!

my god! We hit them!
We hit them!

Minneapolis, this is TUA 35

declaring an emergency.
We hit another aircraft.

Looked like a 10.

3 and 4 shutting down.
Cutting fuel on 3.

We are going down.
Repeat, we are going down.

How much of the wing is gone?

Ron, see what's left.

Right.

Mr. Smith, I'm Kevin
Bryley from Minneapolis.

And you're not doin' your job.

Round these people up and shove
them in a room somewhere.

Make no statement
till I get back.

Ashby, tell 'em what we need.

Right. Move it.

Come on, people. Let's do it.

Where'd the DC-10 go
down? Ten miles south.

Jerry, Eli, go take a look.

Tom and I will put down here.

Bill.

Bill.

With the flashlight over here.

We were just going after
the flight-data recorder.

You want to do that next?

Sure.

I've been at the DC-10 site.
Came down a lot harder than this one.

What happened here?

He managed to get it leveled.

But you might know there's
only three engines.

One came down south of here.

He lost a lot of wing?

We think so, yeah.

We've started on the site map.

And the cops have finally stopped
moving things around.

Look, Bill, uh...

We're being very careful, but we don't
think it's a structural failure.

Do you have any numbers yet?

Yeah, yeah.

This one had 354 and 13 crew.

The 10 had 265 and 11.

Watch that wing section there!

You already have the
cockpit voice recorder?

Yeah, but it's pretty battered.

They're working on it now.

I want a dub made

Before you send
it out to Washington.

Alright. I tell them.

It might not be too good.

It's a silly rule.

Why should the boys in
Washington hear it first?

I got to hear what those poor
bastards were up against,

after they hit the 10.

I'm sure they did their best.

They always do.

Are you one of Roger's team?

I'm Dr. Arnold Mayer.

I'm the investigator
in charge, Bill Smith.

Bill Smith, yeah, I know.
I've read many of your crash reports.

Naturally, I've heard
of you, doctor.

What's your interest here?

You want me to leave?

No. It doesn't matter.

All this just seems pretty far
removed from your physics lab.

Maybe scientists should
leave the lab more often.

They might learn things.

Dr. Mayer!

What's an ecology professor
is doing on the crash site?

You know someone on the plane?

Not that I'm aware of.

How did you hear about the crash?
I got a call from the television.

He's the last guy I'd
expect to find out here.

Yeah, actually not.

He's been to several
Midwest crashes.

That big one in '79 at O'Hare,
he was all over it.

I wonder why.

I don't think it will win him
another Nobel prize.

Over here! I got it!

There's a whole mob here from Boeing.

And the man from McDonnell
Douglas is on the way.

Wes Lake from the FBI is here

and the assistant D.A.
from Ramsey County.

OK, the usual gang.

Mr. Janz, I'm Bill
Smith with the NTSB.

Mr. Smith I'm Raymond Leacock.
I represent Mr. Janz.

Is this a formal deposition?
Not yet.

I'm sitting in on this.

Bill, meet Ian Carpenter.

He's with the air traffic
controllers organization.

Mr. Janz, I know this
is a hard time for you.

I want to hear what you saw
and what your actions were.

We were handling 40 flights,

three of us.

Plus the private planes.

The screen was so crowded.

Had a god damn headache.

I was tired.

35 was coming in from the east.

No, from the west.

And 880 was coming in.

Was that the 747, Down?

I looked away for a moment...

some other situation.

And when I looked back...

they'd changed places.

Oh...

I told 35 to turn.

They were close, man.

And then the numbers switched...

and you couldn't tell
them apart anymore.

Somebody's got these guys working
harder and faster than I've ever seen.

Well, that DC-10 was pretty public.

It spread itself over a field not
half a mile from the interstate.

They don't want people
gawking at their, uh...

what did they call
that crash in Florida?

Involuntary conversion.

I think they made a profit on that
when the insurance paid off.

Yeah, well, they sure are busting
their asses on this one.

Look at that. They even got the ticket
agents serving coffee.

Mr. Keane.

Where does this go?
What we gonna do with this stuff?

Did I tell you,
you could touch that?

Excuse me.
Put that down!

Just put that down!

Hey!

How about some coffee?

Hey, wait a minute!

I think she likes you, Bill.

What did I do?

Could it be your breath?

I thought you always
get that reaction.

They're ready to play
the cockpit tapes.

Minneapolis, we are
currently heading zero...

TUA 35, turn to heading...

Say again, Minneapolis.

Jesus! Down!

Oh, my god.

Down! Go down!

My God! We hit them!

We hit them!

Minneapolis, this is TUA 35

declaring an emergency.
We hit another aircraft.

Looked like a 10.

3 and 4 shutting down.
Cutting fuel on 3.

We are going down.
Repeat, going down!

How much of the wing is gone?

Ron, get back and see what's left.

Right.

Would you like some
coffee, Mr. Smith?

Damn! I'm listening...

is there anyplace to land?

Can you rewind that a little?

Still going down.

Is there anyplace to land?
I'll check for a field.

Just look for a flat
place... anything.

We'll be on the ground...

They are dead.
They're all dead!

What the hell is he talking about?
Sit down for Christ's sake, Ron!

They're dead, all of them.

They're burned up!

Jesus! We're going to hit!

Was that Kennedy shouting?

Yeah. Rockwell couldn't
understand him.

Run that last part
through again.

I'll see if I can clean
it up a bit for you.

Just look for a flat
place... anything.

We'll be on the ground...

They're dead!
They're all dead!

What the hell is he talking about?
Sit down for Christ's sake, Ron!

They're dead, all of them.

They're burned up!
Jesus!

Burned up?

They were going to be.

They might as well have
been dead already.

It makes me sick.

Yeah, but it doesn't make sense.

He'd expected to make sense at
a time like that?

No, not like that.

Ok.
How about the pilots?

Like they say, they're the first on the
scene of the accident.

How many crash tapes
have you heard?

God. Too many.

How many times do you hear a man
come apart like that?

Ok, but it's got to
happen sometime.

He goes back there and sees all
those people who are going to die.

It's too much for him.

Obviously, they
hadn't burned up yet.

What about if...

Maybe...

Maybe there was a fire in the cabin.

Maybe they were
burned up already.

Sorry, but that won't work.

The fuselage was unaffected
by fire until after impact.

He just broke under the strain.

Get me a transcript
of that tape.

Roger, set up a press
conference for tonight.

Let's go see what the dead
have to say about it.

This gymnasium, is this the biggest
place they could find?

Oh Bill!

I've got something
interesting for you.

These are pretty
good bodies in here.

Next door, we got stuff from the
DC-10, which is mostly pieces.

Can't be identified.

Next of Kin will have to look
at personal effects mostly.

Not many faces to show them.

Then the FBI takes over.

We'll be lucky to tag 60% from
fingerprints and dental charts.

Not enough hands,
not enough heads.

We autopsied a few,

and they died of trauma,
dismemberment, burns, the usual.

We got to get some ripper trucks in here to...

They're on their way.

We only got this place for two days.
I got a dance...

The trucks will be here.

OK...

Now here what I want you to see.

Two kinds of watches...

Mechanics here
and digitals here.

Now, these digitals
didn't do so good.

Mostly, they're blank.

Heat must wiped them out.
But we did find this.

Yeah. So what?

Take a closer look.

It's going backwards.

This better not be a joke.
It's not.

Somebody had a gag watch.

Well, we thought of that.

Look at this.

Good evening.

You all have copies of
the prepared statement.

I'm William Smith,
investigator in charge.

I'll try to answer
your questions,

but I warn you,

we don't know much more
than is in that statement.

Who wants to go first?

Sir, there're been rumors
of some type of a computer error

being the cause of this crash.
Can you confirm this?

That's being looked at.
I can't say more at this time.

When can we talk to the controller
who was handling the planes?

You'll have to take that up
to the man's lawyer.

Mr. Smith...

you're on record as issuing a
pretty harsh indictment of the FAA

for failing to require
anti-collision devices

on all commercial and
private aircraft,

even though, as you know, these devices
have been available for over a decade.

Would you care to comment?

Dr. Mayer, do you have any idea
what caused this crash?

One of Newton's laws, I suspect.
The one about gravity.

Beyond that I don't know
anymore than you do.

Can I have an interview, doctor?

Gentleman, please.

I have to get in there and ask
some questions of my own.

Would you care to reply to
charge made by Mr. Carpenter?

No reply at this
time. Next question.

Mr. Smith,

I'm Dr. Arnold Mayer, professor
of physics at the University.

I remember you.
Thank you.

My question has nothing to
do with overloaded computers

or negligent air
traffic controllers.

That should be refreshing.

I doubt it.

What unusual facts have you developed
so far in your investigation?

I'm not sure I know
what you mean.

Were there any unexplained
observations?

Is there any indication
this crash was caused

by something less obvious
than a computer overload?

None at all.
Of course, every crash is unique.

Yet they share common factors.

There are things you expect
to find and things you don't.

For instance, there is anything
in the cockpit voice recorder

out of the ordinary?

I can't comment on that.
It's confidential.

The relevant portions will
be released in a couple of days.

You can listen for yourself.

All right.

But is there anything else odd?

Have you found any unusual
item in the wreckage,

any discrepancies in the
time sequence of the crash?

I'm afraid I still don't know what
you're driving at.

I can't be more plain
without sounding like a fool.

I'm sampling looking for
the inexplicable.

I usually find it.

Look, somebody made a mistake,
and a lot of people died.

In a few days we should be able to
tell you what went wrong.

There's no mystery about it.

Then I salute you.

I'll read your report
with interest.

All TUA personnel,

please check with your
supervisor for shift changes.

So, is there anything else
you need tonight?

I want the salvage team to
work through the night.

You got it.

Better keep crew at
the hangar, too.

We might start getting it all sorted out.

All right. It's done.

My secretary managed to get
you a room at the Marriott.

Tom, you're staying
at the Holiday Inn.

Privilege of rank, I guess.

Why? They got a beauty pageant
there tonight...

Miss I-94.

I hear the bar's pretty wild.

Well,

I'm out of here.

Thanks, Roger.

Your people did a great job.

Our usual service.

All right.
Well, I'll see you tomorrow.

Yeah.

Los Angeles passenger
Mr. George Kellerman,

please pick up the white
courtesy telephone.

Mr. George Kellerman to the
white courtesy telephone.

I keep running into you.

If you're not running away.

I had to get out of that hangar.

Thought I'd be sick.

You get used to
it after a while.

Excuse me.

Well, we could be
stuck here for hours.

Maybe we'd better
get acquainted.

I'm Louise Baltimore,

and you're Bill Smith.

How long is it since you slept?

Do I look that bad?

I didn't say bad.
Just tired.

It's got to be 30, 35 hours,

but who needs sleep?

Listen, maybe we could go have coff...

Some dinner and a few drinks.
That'd be nifty.

Am I moving too fast for you?

I can move fast, too.

Let's go.

You should be careful,
picking up strange women.

You never know where
it might lead.

Oh.

Taxi!

We could take my car.

What kind of car do you drive?

What kind?

That's mine.

You smoke too much.

I'll quit tomorrow.

Just like that, huh?

I've heard that story before.

It took me over a year to quit.

You don't believe me?

This is my last cigarette.

Was it that good?

You were the best thing
in a thousand years, Bill.

I was, wasn't I?

I was stunned.

Why?

It's been so long since I've...

enjoyed myself...

let alone been swept away.

Do you believe in fate?

I will if you will.

I think it was fate that
brought us together.

You may be right.

I want to spend
more time with you.

I'd like that.

We'll have all day tomorrow.

We'll have all tomorrow
night, anyway.

This job is killing you, Bill.

You need to take a rest.

Take it with me.

The first rule is,

never go to bed with anybody
crazier than yourself.

I don't know if you're crazier,

but you're right there in
the top 10 on my weird list.

If you knew me better...

I'd be number one.

yes, I'd like to cancel
the 6:30 wake-up.

Yes.

Damn it. They were
supposed to call me.

Well, they can't start
till you get there.

Bill, you remember we
were talking about fate?

Sure I remember.

Maybe that's why they
didn't call you.

Are you listening to me?

I don't get it.

This job is wearing you down.

I know it is.

I can't just walk
away from it, Louise.

Why not?

The world won't come to an end
if you just walk away.

I haven't had a
vacation in six years.

I got one coming.

In one week, I'll have this
investigation started.

I can hand it over
to someone else.

Then I'll take a long
look at my life.

Maybe we can go away
somewhere together.

Anyway, we've got tonight.

I may not be here tonight.

We'll talk about it tonight.

Louise?

Louise?

As to systems surrounding
engine number four,

which was the on sheared off
in the collision,

let's consider the
fuel feed first.

You'll find that on page 19
of the computer print-out.

Everybody got that?

On line 5, you will see there was
a momentary surge

when fuel line number
four was severed

along with 25 feet of wing tip.

I'll have a better figure
on that tomorrow...

Smith.

Julie, thanks for calling back.

No, it has nothing to do
with the investigation.

I can't understand it.

She was wearing a T.U. outfit.

That's right, Baltimore,
like the city.

First name, Louise.

I guess I made a mistake, then.
Thanks, Julie.

...a very little control.

Night, fellas.

Good night.

We're locking up, Mr. Smith.

What's that?

There'll be a guard on that door, over there.

Just knock on the glass
when you want to go.

I'll do that.
Good night.

Hell of a mess, huh?

One hell of a mess.

Good night.

It's Smith, isn't it?
I'm not sure.

Looks like the pictures I saw.

Is he dead?

Stunned.

God damn it. Where's
the stunner?

There.

He must have been
fooling with it.

Is he out?

He's probably seeing and
hearing everything.

If yes, it's already too late.

God, what else can go wrong?

Let's get the hell out.

Smith, you're going
to be all right.

You don't know me and
I can't tell you who I am,

but you're endangering a project,

that is bigger than you can imagine.

Forget about this.

This gonna be a paradox,
if you don't.

You...

Coventry, send the gate.

My god, you think...

we didn't make those
planes crash, I swear it.

Stand by for time travelers
arriving through gate.

Gantry B operators,
prepare for arrival.

We have major problems.

What happened?

We got the stunner.

Imagine my relief.

Louise, I want an explanation.

Our master's voice.

There was a little problem.

Those words will be engraved

in the annals of understatement.

Your mother was a cash register.

And she turned a
tidy profit, too.

Louise...

what happened?

All gate operators, report
to decontamination center

on shutdown.

Do you see that?

Do you see the red
blob on the time line?

That is 1989.

That's where you just went,

and there's the mess
you left behind you.

It's a god damn paradox, Louise.

It's a potential paradox.

You sent me to get
the stunner we lost.

Well, here it is.

You didn't mention
Smith was there.

He already found it and
stunned himself.

And I think he wasn't
out when we found him.

I think he saw us.

Sir,

I have a time quake approaching.

Paradox. Time quake
approaching.

Force three.

A paradox, Louise.

You've changed the past.

You know damn well we can't
change the past.

It catches up with us.

We change.

We haven't changed much.

We're all still dying.
This place still stinks.

And you are still
as ugly as ever.

One not much bigger than that
could destroy us completely.

Look, you're the one supposed
to scan the past.

Why don't you know Smith
was gonna be in that hangar?

And you're supposed to be
ready for the unexpected.

You're supposed to be the best.

You and your people get the
best food, the best quarters.

All the precious medicines.

Do you realize what it
costs to pamper you?

He was there.
He was in the dark!

What did you want me to do?
Kill him?

Oh, you'd like that.

Killing him would create the
worst paradox imaginable.

His life affects thousands of
lives in an endless chain.

If you break it...
You get 1,000 years of bad luck,

and none of us is here anymore.

All right.

Let's go find out what happened.

Maybe we can still do something.

All I'm getting is temporal
censorship from her journal.

Scan past it.

What's temporal censorship mean?

It means we can't see where we've
been or where we're going to.

We can only go back to a
specific moment once,

and never to that
same moment again.

Too bad.

If we could...

you'll get used to it
after more missions.

There he is, in the shadow.

Give us rapid scan until he moves.

Louise!

That's my name.

You probably dropped
the calling card.

Louise!

I didn't mention my name.
Neither did anyone else.

How does he know my name?

He's got the initiator.

Smith have met me before,
haven't him?

How else would he
know your name?

I've never been back to that era.

Do you want me to spell it out for you?

Give it a try, would you?

In Smith's time, he
has met you before.

In your time, you have met him
only once, in the hangar,

which means you will go
back and meet him earlier.

I spoke to him, Sherman.

That was not a good idea.

I didn't like talking
to him, Sherman.

I didn't like it at all.

You were not helping him.

What's that supposed to mean?

This seems to be my day
for spelling out the obvious.

I suppose I should not complain.

Come on, you old fraud,

prep me for the 1963 flight.

The '63 mission will
proceed to stage one.

The '63 mission will
proceed to stage one.

You did not smoke
enough, Louise.

Give it to me straight, doc.

No new degeneration.

The levels of complex
hydrocarbons

in your blood are depressed

due to breathing the
primordial atmosphere

of the 20th century.

They think their air's awful.

They ain't seen nothin' yet.

Maybe I should replace
those kidneys.

Maybe a little kick, get
the old blood moving.

Speed kills, my dear.

Uniforms and hair
for look-alikes

will proceed to stage two.

Uniforms and hair
for look-alikes

will proceed to stage two.

Sometimes I think you
want me to live forever.

OK, so, explain it to me.

That's what you're built for.

You know is like meaning
what's going on, own my head.

Do you?
Hardly.

All right.

On a normal mission,

when you are taking people

who are about to die
off doomed airplanes,

you do not mind
treating them roughly.

All done.

It's because I'm helping them.

Obviously without you, those
people would be dead,

so you can function
without remorse.

But with Smith,
it was different.

I don't think I want
to hear any more.

How's the little
feather head today?

Louise loves you, Orville.
Yes, she does.

Polly want a chemical-free
sterilized cracker?

I should take you to 1963.

You could fly.

Would you like that? Huh?

Would you like that?

You left Smith
helpless and confused,

so there was pain in you.

All right, I felt sorry
for the bastard,

but I'd have shot him if it
would straighten things out.

As Coventry said, you did
not have that choice.

What choices do I have?

You say I have to go back

because he met me before.
Yes.

What if I don't go back?

What happens to the universe?

You must go back.

Where's my free will?

Did you lose it?

I will look around for it.

This is awful.

You think that's bad?
Take a look at this.

We located the 1963 crash

while you were away.

It's likely you
will go tomorrow.

How are you on the
idiom and history?

I know it like the back of my hand.

Who was the U.S. president?

Johnson.

No, wait, uh...

he was assassinated by...

Vito Corleone?

Louise.

We've talked about quarks
and anti neutrinos,

but what about people?

It's quite a step
from demonstrating

that subatomic particles

can travel backward through time

to saying that people can.

What would be the result of
people traveling in time?

For one thing, paradoxes
become possible.

Say you build a time
machine, go back,

and murder your father
when he was 10 years old.

That means you were never born.

And if you weren't, how did you build
a time machine?

It's the possibility
of paradoxes

that make most people rule out

time travel by human beings.

Still, why not?

If you were careful,
you could do it.

You would not go back
to kill Adolf Hitler,

much as you might like to,

because it would change history.

A time traveler would
have to be careful,

but he could do a surprising
number of things.

He could observe, for one.

He could find out once for all

who was on the grassy knoll
that day in Dallas.

And he will know what we
can only guess at...

that we are destroying the
planet we live on by complacency.

He will have to live
with our legacy

of pollution and acid rain.

Our negligence today
is producing a world

in which our children's
children will be barren

and the human race heading
towards extinction.

He could also take things,

providing they
wouldn't be missed...

a cup of water from the pacific ocean,

a stone from the Grand Canyon.

This may sound pointless,

but sometimes very
small differences

can be crucial.

The difference
between a dead man

and a man who's alive

can be very small.

What about a man who
is about to die,

a man no one will
ever see alive again?

Stage three alert.

All sections, go.

This is the hard part

about looking for
time travelers.

They don't want to be found.

You must look for them in
places where no one is,

or where there are people

no one will ever
see alive again.

All personnel, stand
by for departure.

Go!

Go!

Aah!

Gate attendants,
pick up new arrival.

Pick up new arrival.

Good afternoon,
ladies and gentlemen.

This is your captain speaking.

We are cruising at an
altitude of 31,000 feet

at a ground speed of
460 miles per hour.

If you look out the right side

through the clouds,
you can see the finger lakes.

Our expected time of arrival
is on schedule at 4:30.

So sit back and relax

and enjoy the flight.

Alright, send the others.

Everything's nice and quiet.
Lets keep it that way.

Gantry operators,
prepare for arrival.

Extreme radiation danger.

May I get you a pillow, Sir?
Sure.

Prepare holding pens for
arriving passengers.

I'm through up here.
What's up?

There's a guy acting funny.

He's watching us too close.

Get up!

Aah!

Oh, my God!

You gonna take me to see the captain.

Sir, you can't shoot that.

If you depressurize the
cabin, you'll kill us all.

Nobody gets hurt
if I see the captain.

You stinking son of a bitch.

Hey, wake up!

Get in there and cork the crew.

You know the flight plan.
Keep it steady.

Riot squad Martin,

fast and dirty.
This one's falling apart.

Did... did that man shoot her?

Don't worry, honey.
It'll be all right.

When she fell...

I want you to sleep now.

Attention. Attention.

Initiation phase has commenced.

All recovery team
personnel, stand by.

'63 flight in force field.

Holding.

All systems to gate.

Ladies and gentlemen,

please remain in your seats.

Ladies and gentlemen,

please move toward
the rear exit door.

Please step onto the ramp.

Walk quickly to the bottom
and follow instructions.

You will be taken to a safety...

Let's get you out of here.

Idiot!

That's the survivor.

Buckle him and came in
to help me with Susan.

Please step onto the ramp.

Walk quickly to the bottom
and follow instructions.

You will be taken
to a safety area.

Please step onto the ramp.

Walk quickly to the bottom
and follow instructions.

You will be taken
to a safety area.

Please step onto the ramp.

All substitute bodies
will be placed strictly

according to the passenger list.

Passengers now in transit.

Prepare to activate
holding pen force fields.

So, now we know a hijacker
caused this crash.

We know there was a survivor.

We know when it crashed.

We just have to duplicate it.

I stopped it.

I stopped the bullet.

You saved us all, kid.

Hang in there.
You'll be all right.

He must fired his gun in the cockpit.

Have Djakarta attach a 5-k
bomb to the windscreen.

That should duplicate
the effect.

I lost it.

What, Susan?

What did you lose?

Stun.

Stunner.

I lost the stunner.

Look out.

Stop it! Hold the gate!

Stop her!

Baltimore, get out of there!

No time, Louise! No time!

Louise, there's a bomb!

One of my team was shot.

In the confusion,
a stunner was lost.

It was too late to get it.

You know that preventing a paradox
is more important

than individual lives.

Blame is secondary
at this point.

The first stunner
you lost in 1989

ended up in the
possession of Bill Smith.

He knows what it can do.

Then you went back to 1963

and lost another stunner.

The computers estimate

it wound up in the
possession of Arnold Mayer.

If he learns what it can do,

he might be capable
of learn how it works.

The council has decided to
risk another mission to 1989.

You must meet Smith the day before
you saw him in the hangar.

You must prevent him

from going to that hangar
the night he saw you there.

Since he knew your
name when he saw you,

he must met you previously.

Therefore, you did go back.

Must go back.

I can't get away from you.

I would be a poor personal
robot if you could.

I lost a very good girl
on that plane, Sherman.

What was the council's
epitaph for her?

Preventing a paradox is more
important than individual lives.

Susan knew that.
She accepted it.

I just...

I couldn't leave her.

It is not necessary

to destroy your soul
in this job, Louise,

but a certain amount of violence

will be done to it.

You made the wrong choice.

It is easy for them to
make cold choices, Louise.

They are hardly human anymore.

Am I so different?

We're all dying.

They're just a little
further along.

You are different.

You have feelings.

They want me to go back again.

You have to go back.

He must be kept out
of that hangar.

This isn't a job
for me, Sherman.

You want someone bashed in the head,
I'm your girl.

You will have to
learn new methods.

You can do it.

I know you can.

Then let's go do it.

Standard metal fatigue.

Somebody's got these guys working
harder and faster than I've ever seen.

Well, that DC-10 was pretty public.

It spread itself over a field not
half a mile from the interstate.

They don't want people
gawking at their, uh...

What did they call
that crash in Florida?

Involuntary conversion.

I think they made a profit on that
when the insurance paid off.

Well, they sure are busting their
asses on this one.

Take this coffee over there, would you?

They even got the ticket
agents serving coffee.

Put that down!
Just Put that down!

What we gonna do
with this stuff?

Did I tell you you
could touch that? Excuse me.

Hey.

How about some coffee?

What a long night ahead of us.

Hey, wait a minute.

Declaring an emergency!
We hit another aircraft!

Looked like a 10.

Three and four shutting down.
Cutting fuel of the three

We are going down!
Repeat! Going down!

How much of the wing is gone?
Ron, get back there and see what's left!

Right!

Some coffee, Mr. Smith?
Damn it! I'm listening...

still going down.

Is there anyplace to land?

Alright Sherman, he's seen me again.

I think he's interested.
What next?

What now, Sherman?

Think of something.

Take him to dinner.

Someplace romantic.

How do I do that?

Pick him up, my dear.

How?

Drop your hankie.
Wiggle your behind.

You're the woman, Louise.

You figure it out.

Just be subtle.

Louise is about as
subtle as a lead pipe.

Thanks.

It should be
appropriate to the era

as well as stimulating
to the contemporary male.

Sorry about the high heels.

I keep running into you.

If you're not running away.

I had to get out of that hangar.
I thought I was going to be sick.

You get used to it, after all.

Oh!

Excuse me.

Well, we could be
stuck here for hours.

Maybe we'd better
get acquainted.

Oh!

Taxi!

We could take my car.

What kind of car do you drive?

What kind?

That's mine.

Why don't you get in?

You got the keys?

Keys?

Whoa!

The tower clear you
for that takeoff?

So, do you know Minneapolis?

No. I've only been here...

Watch it!

A couple of times.

I know a good place.

Anyplace is fine.

Something wrong?

Just watch... Jesus!

You really drive this thing.

Are we almost there?

Another two minutes
at this velocity.

How long you had this car?

Oh, ah... Forever.

You must be the luckiest
woman in the world.

hey! What are you doing?

Idiot!

You all right?

I feel like I should
kiss the ground.

Wow!

Can't get that anymore.

I'll have another one.

Forget the water.

Can't get it anymore?

It's old, but it's not that old.

Oh, I mean, I can't
usually afford...

are you ready to order now?

Bill, would you order for me?
I can never decide.

Ok. The sole

and a tossed salad and
Italian dressing.

That's the first time
I've ordered for a girl

since after the senior
prom in high school.

Did I act improperly?

No. It's just...

Haven't you ever heard of women's lib?

Suffragette movement,
19th amendment,

Rosie the Riveter, bra burning,

Gloria Steinem, and the R.A.,
battle of the sexes.

Who won?

I think it's still being fought.

We might call a
truce for tonight.

I'd like that.

Who won?

You have a strange
sense of humor.

Sometimes it's like you grew
up in a foreign country.

I did.

I grew up abroad, overseas.

Whereabouts?

France.

I'm from France. My
father was posted there.

He was a warrior.

Soldier?

That's right. A soldier.

Well, to France, then.

Excuse me.
Your table's ready for you now.

That's a real habit you got.

What habit is that?

I've never seen anyone eat
and smoke at the same time.

Where did it go?

If you hear someone scream,
that's probably where it is.

Louise, you got to quit. That
tobacco's ruining your brain.

So you never remarried,
and you don't have a girlfriend?

Isn't that a little unusual?

Is it?

I guess so.

I don't know.
Sometimes I wish I...

what?

Done things
differently, I guess.

The job always came first.

I know what you mean.

That's how I feel about my job.
Really?

Yours doesn't take you away
in the middle of the night

and keep you gone a
couple of months.

The time I got back, my
girl had usually gone.

Maybe you didn't
find the right girl.

Maybe.

Tom says I'm burning out.

Whatever,

I just gave up looking.

Took a lot of cold showers.

You find it difficult
to talk about yourself.

That's all I've been doing.

Well, you're right. I can't...

open up emotionally?

That's it.

I'm no good at...

expressing yourself?

I couldn't have said
it better myself.

What about you?

Why aren't you married?

I can't have any children.

I'm sorry.

But that's not the only
reason to get married.

Would be for me.

I'd like to get out of here.

Where are you staying?
I can drive you there.

For a minute, I forgot.

I haven't even seen the room yet.

I was going to ask
you if it's nice.

You can come up and take a look.

It is nice.

At least they
delivered my luggage.

"compliments of
the management."

That's real nice.

That is nice.

Would you like an apple?

What's so funny?

I don't know.

You just seem to do everything

a little different
from everyone else.

Is that bad?

I don't think so.

Let's find out.

This may not have been
such a good idea.

Why not?

You don't find me attractive?

No. It's not that.
It's just...

wait.

Try it again.

Please.

I really want this to work.

I really need this to work.

Let me get the light.

The hell with the light.

There's a spare
toothbrush in there,

if that's what
you're looking for.

I thought you were sleeping.

I think I was.

Come here.

You smoke too much.

I'll quit tomorrow.

Just like that, huh?

I've heard that story before.

Took me over a year to quit.

You don't believe me?

This is my last cigarette.

Damn it! They were
supposed to call me.

Well, they can't start
till you get there.

Bill, you remember we
were talking about fate?

Sure I remember.

Maybe that's why they
didn't call you.

Are you listening to me?

I don't get it.

This job is wearing you down.

I know it is.

I can't just walk
away from it, Louise.

Why not?

The world's not going to come to
an end if you just walk away.

I haven't had a
vacation in six years.

I got one coming.

In one week, I'll have this
investigation started,

and I can hand it
over to someone else.

Then I'll take a long
look at my life.

Maybe we can go away
somewhere together.

Anyway, we got tonight.

I may not be here tonight.

Stay with me.

I can't.

We'll talk about it tonight.

Sherman, send the gate.

Louise?

Gate operation terminated.

All controls to zero.

Hmm.

He'll never miss it.

What happened?

Did you stop him?

Sherman, get my uniform.

Paradox! Time quake
approaching!

Force seven.

I have to talk to the council.

We don't have much time!

Here's what happened
after I left.

Going over every single
piece of wreckage

in this hangar.

Identify it. Tag it.

You don't know
what something is,

bring it to me.

What are we looking for?

I'll know when I see it.

We'll reassemble the 747
from the ground up.

Bill, are you sure?
That's all, go to work!

He's forgotten all about
what really caused the crash.

Now he's looking
for the stunner...

and for me.

We're wasting time, Bill.

You can't learn
anything from this.

Rebuild it...

every inch of it,

day and night.
I'll approve the overtime.

Bill.

The boss is on the
phone from Washington.

Tell him I'll call him back.

He says get back there
or you'll be fired.

Well, that sounds fairly urgent.

Want me to go with you?

I don't thing you
better be around me.

It might not be good
for your career.

He's doing his job badly now.

It had to lead to conflict
with his superiors.

Bill, I've always backed you because
you were a good investigator.

I let you run with this

even if I couldn't
see the reason,

but you've turned
up nothing new.

I have to know
what do you expect to find?

If I knew, I wouldn't
have to look so hard for.

This crash has been...

crazy from the start...

like the watches
that ran backwards.

You said that wasn't important.

I didn't think so.
Now I do.

The cockpit tape...

the engineers screaming that
they're all dead and burned.

Was it computer error or not?

Yeah.

Soon as we get your
report saying that,

we can recommend
getting new computers.

That's a big appropriation,

and congress is ready
to spend the money.

Something happened...
In the hangar.

I found something.

I think it knocked me out.

They came and took it from me.

And now they're watching me.

I can feel it.

They can go anywhere...

look anywhere.

There was this... Girl.

Now he'll go see Dr. Mayer.

Dr. Mayer doesn't
have the answers,

but he has one of these.

It's the stunner
Susan lost in 1963.

Smith has the initiator.

You put them together,
and it spells paradox.

Come in, Mr. Smith.

Been expecting you.

That's it.

It's all temporal
censorship from there.

That means I will go back.

I can stop the paradox
if I leave now.

The watches, the cockpit
voice recording...

that could be important,
but you say she didn't know you.

That's right. She said I looked
like my pictures.

Then she hadn't met you yet.

I told you, we spent
the night together.

It was unforgettable.

You're missing the point.

She finds you in the hangar
on the night of the 5th.

She returns to
wherever she's from.

Then, for reasons of her own,

she returns to the 4th

and meets you

for the first time

From her point of view.

She's traveling in time.

There has to be another answer.

It's time I showed
you something.

I've been working on a
puzzle for 25 years.

You may be the missing piece.

That's it!
Where'd you get it?

What is it?

It's a weapon of some kind.

All systems green.

Quadrants interlock.

All systems go.

Two minutes.
Baltimore, solo, 1989.

Two minutes.

All I want to do is find her.

I don't care about
anything else.

Bill, I think you'll
see her again.

How do you know so
much about her?

Because of this object.

It's very important.

I've run tests over the years.

I still don't know
what it's made of.

We can't make one in
the 20th century.

Where'd you get it?

It was in the wreckage of a 707

that crashed in upstate
New York in 1963.

I was on that plane.

That can't be. The only
survivor was a boy named...

William Collins.

My mother remarried,
and I took the name.

This is incredible.

Then you must...

what do you remember?

I don't think about it much.

You must remember something.

I don't remember
the crash at all.

Before that...

people were shouting.

Somebody got shot.

They found a gun
with one shot fired.

It was a mental
patient, a hijacker.

There was this lady.

It was her.

I remember it now.

She told me everything
would be all right.

She knew you'd survive.

What about her?
Why didn't she die in the crash?

She got off someway,

but left this behind.
She'll want it back.

After 25 years?
In our time.

But in her time, she just
lost it yesterday.

This is the key, Bill.

Is something that
shouldn't be here.

We're living in her past.

If she changes her past,
creates a paradox,

then her world is destroyed.

Oh yes!

We'll seen more of
Louise Baltimore.

Laser beams, prepare
for countdown.

Time tones intimate
at 6 seconds.

5, 4...

I may not make it back.

You will be back.

All systems green.

30 seconds.

Baltimore, solo, 1989.

30 seconds.

This came off mine.

You know too much already.

I don't have much time, but
I'll try answer your questions.

Doctor Mayer, I'll have to take that.

You take people off planes
just before they crash.

We replace what we
take with dead bodies.

I'm glad you came back.

But the relatives identify them.

They identify the wrong people.

We duplicate them...

fingerprints, dental records.

We're very good at what we do.

Then you are from the future.

About 1,000 years.

It must be incredible.

It must be horrible.

It's awful.

We're all dying.

We can make the bodies,
but we can't make the souls.

We can't have children anymore.

We steal people from the past

to send them somewhere
else to start over...

to give them a second chance.

I have to take that stunner
back with me, Dr. Mayer.

It could cause a paradox.

I'm going with you.

You can't, Bill.

Haven't you heard
anything I've said?

You said you were
dying. So am I.

Bill, the whole race is
dying, all of humanity.

We're all going to die.

What matters is now...

this moment.

I can't take anything with
me that'll be missed.

No one's going to miss me.

The stunner, Dr. Mayer.
That's what I came for.

I knew I was right.

No!

He's dead.

The paradox has happened.

I got to get out of here.

Take me with you.

Sherman, send the gate.

Watch that first
step. It's a killer.

Time quake.

Force infinity.

Paradox.

Time quake. Force infinity.

Mr. Smith, I presume.

Come on.

Mayer's work would
have changed history.

He wasn't supposed to
die for six years.

I tried to stop him.
I was too late.

It's all over.

The paradox is here.

If you had left things alone, nothing
of this wouldn't have happened.

I did what I had to do.

Our world is at an end.

All evidence of our existence
will be washed away.

We must attempt to send
those we have saved

into a distant future
that may lie beyond the gate.

Coventry...

reverse the gate.

Get out!

Get out! Everybody get out!

Go, Louise.

Get him out of here.

Open the holding pens!

Release everyone and
send them to the gate.

You will awake now.

Remain calm. Remain calm.

All right! Come on! Let's go!

Proceed to the gate as
quickly as possible.

Proceed in single file
to the main terminal.

Remain calm.

Do not be afraid.
Do not be afraid.

No harm will come to you.

Follow directions.

Walk toward the light and
step into the light.

Move along.

Move along!
Everything's all right.

Please remain calm.

Single file. Walk
into the light.

You'll be all
right. Keep moving.

Single file. Walk
into the light.

Walk toward the light and
step into the light.

Our work is done.

I move we adjourn.

Seconded.

Just keep moving.
Walk through the light.

Walk into the light.

Time to go, Bill.

The gate will be destroyed
in two minutes.

What happens when
the gate's gone?

Like a nuclear bomb.

Step through, Bill.

Together.

None of us can go.

Only you.

Then I'm not going either.

Take a chance, Louise.

Go with him.

You are going to have his child.

The gate will be
destroyed in one minute.

Sherman, come with us.

There is no place for
me where you are going.

Go!

Now!

This is not the end.

This is not the
beginning of the end.

It is the end of the beginning.
