Épisode Baptême du temps S01E01 - Timeless Saison 1

1937, le dirigeable Hindenburg amorce son atterrissage à Lakehurst dans le New Jersey sous les yeux des journalistes, photographes et des habitants venus voir le spectacle.
Les membres d'équipage du Hindenburg jettent des cordes aux personnes sur le terrain qui commencent à tirer l'engin vers le bas. Ensuite, nous voyons un trou à l'intérieur du dirigeable. Un ouvrier qui se trouve à l'intérieur touche une balustrade métallique ce qui génère une étincelle et crée une explosion. Le Hindenburg s'enflamme et s'écrase sur le sol.

A notre époque, Lucy Preston, professeur d'histoire, donne un cours à l’université. Après sa classe, son supérieur l'informe qu'elle ne sera pas titularisée cette année ce qui la met en colère, car elle a travaillé dur pour le devenir.
Triste, elle retourne chez elle, où sa soeur Amy se trouve à côté du lit de leur mère, mourante. Lucy et sa soeur quittent la chambre pour parler de la déception de Lucy de ne pas avoir le poste et Lucy s'inquiète de payer les factures.

Au même moment chez Mason Industries.
Un groupe d'hommes armés pénètrent dans un bâtiment où des codeurs et des analystes innocents attendent avec impatience leurs Tacos hebdomadaires du mardi.
Les hommes menacent les travailleurs avec des fusils, tirent sur l'un des gardes de sécurité. Ils prennent un homme en otage et entrent dans une machine géante située au centre de la pièce. Après de nombreux tourbillons, la capsule disparaît dans l'air.

Quelqu’un sonne à la porte des Preston et Lucy ouvre la porte pour trouver un homme qui se présente comme l’agent Kondo de la sécurité intérieure. Il l’informe qu'ils ont besoin de son aide et lui demande de le suivre.
Lucy est conduite à Mason Industries où elle rencontre l'agent Denise Christopher et un soldat de la Delta Force, Wyatt Logan. Connor Mason, le fondateur de l'entreprise, les rejoint rapidement à l'entrée du quartier général.

L’agent Christopher les informe que Garcia Flynn, un ancien agent de la NSA qui a précédemment tué sa famille, a pris d'assaut Mason Industries avec ses hommes et a volé une machine temporelle. Lucy et Wyatt regardent la vidéo de sécurité et ne peuvent pas en croire leurs yeux. Homeland a appris l'existence de la machine au moment du vol car Mason l'a créée et ne l'a pas dit au Gouvernement.

Ils présentent ensuite à Lucy et Wyatt, le “Life Boat”, le prototype initial de la machine qui n’est pas aussi fonctionnel, mais qui peut voyager dans le temps et aussi déterminer la date où Flynn a fui, le 6 mai 1937. Lucy se rend compte qu'il est allé à l'époque du désastre du Hindenburg.

L’agent Christopher informe Lucy qu'elle a besoin qu'elle voyage dans le temps pour poursuivre Flynn. Lucy est surprise et Christopher lui explique qu’ils ont besoin d'un historien pour guider l’équipe afin de faire profil bas et ne pas modifier le passé. Wyatt étant un soldat qualifié, il sera chargé de les protéger et de stopper Flynn. Et enfin, Rufus, codeur chez Mason Industries, sera leur pilote.

Ce dernier n’est pas ravi de jouer les pilotes car il préfère rester derrière son bureau et surtout, il est noir et il n’y a aucune époque de l’histoire américaine qui est bonne pour lui, mais Mason ne lui laisse pas le choix.

Le trio enfile des tenues plus appropriées pour l'Amérique de 1937, bien que Lucy trouve des défauts avec les détails, affirmant que les vêtements ne sont pas précis. Elle souligne que les soutiens-gorge avec armatures n'ont pas encore été inventés.
Ils montent dans la machine et arrivent dans le passé. En sortant de la machine, ils regardent vers le ciel et voient le Hindenburg dans les airs.

Après avoir traversé la ville, ils entrent dans un bar. Rufus se sent presque mal à l'aise, et Lucy lui dit d'attendre dehors et d'éviter tout contact visuel avec quelqu'un. Lucy et Wyatt rencontrent Kate Drummond, une journaliste connue. Wyatt est intrigué par elle, et dit à Lucy qu'elle lui rappelle quelqu'un. Ils se présentent à elle et lui demandent si elle a vu l'homme de la photo, Flynn. Elle les informe qu'il était là il y a environ deux heures, mais il est parti pour rejoindre l'équipe au sol pour aider à faire atterrir le Hindenburg.
Lucy et Wyatt partent, et Lucy lui dit que Kate va mourir aujourd’hui. Il semble bouleversé, mais elle lui dit que c'est l'heure de Kate, lui rappelant qu'ils ne peuvent pas changer le passé.

Arrivés sur les lieux de l'atterrissage, Lucy, Wyatt et Rufus cherchent Flynn. Lucy s'approche d'un homme qu’elle reconnaît comme étant le commandant Rosendahl. Elle présente Wyatt en tant que Dr Dre et elle-même en tant qu'infirmière Jackie et informe le commandant qu'ils sont de l'hôpital général à la recherche d'un de leurs patients. Elle lui montre la photo de Flynn, déclarant qu'il est très malade et doit être ramené tout de suite. Le commandant, préoccupé par le risque d'une nouvelle épidémie dit à ses hommes de chercher Flynn.

Alors qu’il cherche Flynn, Wyatt trouve Kate dans la foule et court pour la sauver. Mais au lieu de s'écraser, l'Hindenburg se pose gracieusement au sol. Ils se rendent compte que Flynn a sauvé le Hindenburg en ne laissant jamais les cordes toucher le sol mouillé. Pendant ce temps, Lucy aperçoit Flynn et le poursuit, mais un de ses hommes l'attrape. Heureusement, Wyatt est là pour la sauver, en tirant sur l'homme, le tuant. Rufus trouve sur l’homme ce qu'il pensait à l'origine être une radio, mais il s'avère être un détonateur pour une bombe. Les trois se rendent compte que Flynn ne voulait pas que le Hindenburg explose à son arrivée, car il veut le faire sauter quand il partira, modifiant le calendrier et tuant des personnages historiques importants.

Avant que l'équipe puisse stoper Flynn, ils sont arrêtés. Dans leurs cellules, Lucy demande à Wyatt pourquoi il est fasciné par Kate. Il admet qu'elle lui rappelle sa défunte épouse, Jessica.
En cherchant un moyen de s’échapper, Wyatt se rend compte qu’il peut forcer la serrure de leur cellule avec l’armature du soutien-gorge de Lucy. Il dit à Rufus de créer une diversion. Rufus demande un verre d'eau, mais après avoir été traité avec un manque de respect de la part du policier, il commence à évoquer de grands noms de l’histoire noire américaine et termine par "L'histoire n'est pas de votre côté".

Le policier s'en va et revient bientôt avec un autre pour passer à tabac Rufus. Ils s'approchent de la cellule de Rufus avec leurs matraques. Wyatt se dépêche de forcer la serrure et y arrive juste à temps pour neutraliser un des gardiens alors que Rufus frappe l'autre. Ils les enferment rapidement dans la cellule de Rufus et partent pour sauver le Hindenburg.

À bord du dirigeable, ils rencontrent une nouvelle fois Kate. Elle est effrayée par Wyatt, qui, selon elle, l'avait attaquée lors de sa première tentative de sauvetage, mais ils lui disent qu’il y a une bombe sur le Hindenburg et que l'homme qu'ils lui ont montré en photo l'a cachée. Elle leur dit qu'elle a vu Flynn dans la cuisine. Ils entrent et cherchent la bombe, pour finalement la trouver sous un comptoir. Rufus et Lucy se dirigent vers le poste de pilotage pour convaincre les pilotes d'atterrir alors que Wyatt essaie de désamorcer la bombe.

Rufus et Lucy menacent les pilotes avec des couteaux et Lucy leur dit qu'ils sont du mouvement “Anarchist Black Cross”.
De son côté, Wyatt s'efforce de trouver comment désamorcer la bombe lorsqu'il est attaqué par les hommes de Flynn. Finalement, il est capable de couper les fils à temps pour stopper la bombe, mais un des hommes de Flynn tire vers lui. La balle manque Wyatt et ricoche à travers le Hindenburg, créant un trou qui déclenche une explosion.

L'équipe et Kate sautent à la hâte par une fenêtre et tombent en toute sécurité sur le sol, mais leur mission n'est pas encore terminée. Flynn saisit Lucy. Il prétend tout savoir sur elle, y compris son nom, la mort de son père et ses envies de suivre les traces de sa mère. Il lui montre un journal écrit avec son écriture manuscrite. Elle dit qu'elle n'a pas écrit ça et il lui explique qu'elle le fera. Flynn lui dit ensuite de demander pourquoi elle a été choisie pour la mission et de demander aux personnes de Mason Industries ce qu'est "Rittenhouse".

Wyatt s’approche et Flynn se protège en prenant Lucy en otage. Il tire sur Wyatt et prend la fuite. Wyatt esquive la balle sans avoir vu que Kate l'avait suivi et c’est elle qui est mortellement touchée. Elle meurt dans les bras de Lucy et Wyatt, à côté du Hindenburg en feu.

Lucy, Wyatt et Rufus retournent dans le présent, chez Mason Industries et découvrent que l'histoire a été réécrite. La catastrophe a eu lieu au matin du 7 mai 1937, le mouvement “Anarchist Black Cross” était responsable de l'événement et il n’y a eu que deux morts, la journaliste Kate Drummond et un homme non identifié qui se trouve être l’homme de Flynn.  Lucy affirme que Flynn essaie de "tuer l’Amérique dans son berceau". Il veut réécrire l'histoire avant même qu'elle se soit écrite.

A part, Lucy demande à l’agent Christopher ce qu'est Rittenhouse, mais elle prétend qu'elle ne le sait pas. De son côté, Mason récupère le magnétophone qu'il avait confié à Rufus.

De retour chez elle, Lucy appelle Amy et ne reçoit pas de réponse. Elle se rend à la cuisine et trouve sa mère en pleine forme. Lucy pleure de joie, incapable de comprendre comment cela s'est passé. Sa mère demande où est sa bague de fiançailles, mais Lucy ne comprend pas de quoi elle parle et lui demande où est Amy.  A son tour, sa mère ne sait pas de qui elle parle. Prenant une photo familiale, Lucy réalise que sa soeur a été effacée de l'histoire. Son téléphone sonne alors. C’est l’agent Christopher qui lui dit de revenir à Mason Industries, car Flynn a fait un nouveau bond dans le temps.

[De nos jours dans un amphithéâtre]
Lucy : A White House reported asked LBJ, "Why are we in Vietnam?" And the president whipped out his genitalia [laughter.] And said, "This is why. " [crowd chuckling.] It's true. He called it "Jumbo". [laughter.] For better or worse, and in this case, worse, this is real history. To understand it, we've got to get inside these people's heads, their loves, their quirks, their Jumbos.
[laughter.]
[giggles.]

[Devant l’amphitéâtre]
Lucy : You're cancelling my tenure meeting?
directeur du département : It's not me.
Lucy : You're department chair.
directeur du département : It's the committee. Can we just let's talk about this over coffee.
Lucy : I have busted my ass for tenure. Why?
directeur du département : The department thinks that…
Lucy : My mother built this department. The real truth? You could push this through if you wanted.
directeur du département : Lucy.

Amy : They're not gonna give you tenure? So what are you gonna do?
Lucy : Go to the chancellor, if I have to, raise hell.
Amy : Or quit. Just get out of there. You don't need this crap.
Lucy : So we'll all just live off your podcast?
Amy : Ouch. Lucy, you're a great professor. Go somewhere you're wanted.
Lucy : That department is Mom's legacy. It's what I've worked for my entire life. So what, I should just throw my whole future away?
Amy : I'm just saying. Stop worrying about disappointing Mom. Make your own future.

[A l’intérieur]
Anthony : Rufus.
Rufus : Hey, Anthony.
Anthony : Is it or is it not Taco Tuesday, and your turn to pick up said tacos? Um, ask Jiya to go with you. Better than staring at her 12 hours a day.
[gunshots.]
complice de Flynn : Everybody, get down on the ground, now!
[grunts.]

Sit down on the ground.

[Chez les Preston]
[heart monitor beeping.]
[doorbell rings.]
Agent Kondo : Lucy Preston? I'm Agent Kondo with Homeland Security.
Lucy : Look, whatever you're selling, - I'm not buying –
Agent Kondo : Really. Agent Kondo, Homeland Security. Miss Preston, you need to come with me.
Amy : What'd she do?
Agent Kondo : We need your help. Now, please.

[Devant Mason industries.]
[sirens wailing.]
Agent Kondo : Get out, please. This way, follow me.

[A l’intérieur de Mason industries.]
Agent Kondo : Wait here, please.
Lucy à Kondo : Okay. You know what? I just need to call Cool.
[whispers.]
Lucy à Wyatt : Are you asleep?
Wyatt : No, ma'am.
Lucy : Oh.
[faintly.]
Okay, good. This is Connor Mason's company? Do you know why we're here?
Wyatt : No idea, ma'am.
Lucy : You know, we're pretty much the same age, so you can just stop calling me ma'am.
[door opens.]
Agente Christopher : Lucy Preston? Agent Denise Christopher, Homeland Security.
You've got a hell of a reputation. History, anthropology. You're world-class.
Lucy : I'm just a teacher. My mother is world-class.
Agent Christopher : I've read all of her books. I'm sorry to hear she's sick.
And Master Sergeant Wyatt Logan. Delta Force?
Wyatt : Yes, ma'am.
Agente Christopher : Boy. Speaking of reputations. Well, we are on the clock so follow me, but hold onto your asses.
Lucy : Uhh. Uh ok okay.

[Devant un écran dans une autre pièce.]
Agent Christopher : Garcia Flynn, ex-NSA asset in Eastern Europe.
Wyatt : Ex since when?
Agente Christopher : Since he killed his wife and child and went off the grid. That was a year ago. We thought he was holed up in Chechnya, but apparently not.
Wyatt : Why's he taking the Star Tours ride?
[sonic pop.]
Lucy : Wh What the hell was that?
Wyatt : Some sort of special effect?
Connor Mason entrant dans la pièce : Ever heard of a closed timelike curve?
Wyatt : You're Connor Mason. My buddy has one of your cars.
Lucy : I excuse me, a closed timelike what?
Mason : Right. Say, this, is the fabric of space-time. Now, if you get a powerful enough gravitational field, you could actually bend it back on itself, creating a kind of loop that would allow you to cross over to an earlier point.
Lucy : An an earlier point in time, you mean?
Agente Christopher : What he means is, Mr. Mason invented a time machine. And chose not to tell the government about it until it was stolen by terrorists.
Mason : Right, 'cause the federal government never screws up anything and can always keep a secret.
Agente Christopher : You're asking for our help now.
Wyatt :Uh wait, hold on. This is a joke, right? I mean, some some psych test the government came up with?
Lucy : I mean this This can't be possible, right?
Mason : Well, that's what they said about the moon shot, until someone with enough imagination made it very possible.
[metal clanks.]
[alarms blaring.]
Our earliest prototype. She isn't fancy, but she works, usually. Now, we kept her operational in case the crew of the mother ship ever needed a rescue. We call this one the "Lifeboat." Their CPUs are linked. But unfortunately she can't tell us exactly where the mother ship has gone. But she can tell us when.
Wyatt : Naturally. Only tells you when. Time machine problems.
Mason : Yes, we're working on it, but for the moment that's the best we have.
Lucy : 3:30 p.m. May 6, 1937.
Agente Christopher : We found this on the dead shooter. It's an address, a tavern in Manchester, New Jersey.
Lucy : That's the "Hindenburg." About four hours before it crashed. You're telling me that this guy actually went back in time, for real, to the "Hindenburg"?
Mason : Lucy, if Flynn kills people in '37 who aren't supposed to die, they don't have the kids they're supposed to have, do the things they're supposed to do, history changes. Reality changes.
Lucy : So why would you be stupid enough to invent something so dangerous?
Mason : I didn't count on this happening.
Lucy : Why would Flynn do it?
Agente Christopher : We don't know. But there's room in there for three passengers.
Lucy : Wait to to do what? Go after him?
Agente Christopher : Why else would we bring you here?

Lucy quittant le bâtiment : You're insane! I mean, even if I believed you, which I don't, I am not getting in that thing to what? Go after some terrorist? I am not a soldier.
Agente Christopher : We have a soldier. We need a historian. A good one who knows the customs, can travel incognito, help us keep a low profile.
Lucy : Great, I'll email you some names.
Agente Christopher : I think someone who loved history would want to save it. Besides, what if I am telling the truth? Don't tell me you're not the least bit curious.
[car door shuts.]

[A l’intérieur]
Mason : You need to go with them.
Rufus : I can't. I am a coder. Okay, that is what I'm good at. All right, I don't like to leave my desk, let alone go in there or back then. Also, I don't know how it works across the pond, but I am black. There is literally no place in American history that'll be awesome for me.
Mason : Rufus, enough. We both know why it has to be you.

Voix au loin : "Lifeboat" systems coming online.
Lucy qui vient de se changer : This is all wrong. This skirt is from the '40s. And this blouse? They didn't have this kind of fabric back then. Or underwire bras.
Wyatt : Who is gonna see your bra?

Agente Christopher : Best we could do on short notice.  Take this please.
Lucy : I have to call my sister.
Agente Christopher : You can do it when you get back.
Lucy : What?
Agente Christopher : He's the address - for the tavern.
Agent Kondo : And some money.
Lucy : Huh?
Agente Christopher : Let's go. Don't be noticed. Don't change anything. Understand?

[Dans la capsule]
Lucy : It's okay, just start.
Lucy :Lucy.
Rufus : Rufus. I'm a pilot. Kind of.
Lucy : Kind of?
Wyatt : Wyatt.
Lucy : Are all these seat belts really necessary?
Rufus : Oh, yeah. You'll see.
Wyatt : You okay?
Lucy : I'm I'm claustrophobic. And apparently about to travel through time, so
[exhales.]
Have you been drinking?
Wyatt : Didn't know I was gonna be working tonight, ma'am.
Lucy : Stop calling me ma'am.
[machinery whirring.]
[indistinct announcements.]
Rufus : Might want to hold on.

[1937]
Lucy : Are you okay?
Wyatt : Totally good.
[ambient music.]
Wyatt : Oh. [grunts.] Oh. [spits.]
Wyatt : Are we here?
Rufus : Think so.
Wyatt : You sure?
Lucy : Pretty sure.
[aircraft hovering.]
[stirring music.]

[Sur la route]
Wyatt : Okay, just one thing that I don't get. Apparently, this time machine works. So why don't we just go back five minutes before Flynn stormed in and then shoot him in the face?
Rufus : You can't go back to any time where you already exist, where you might meet a double of yourself. It is bad for the fabric of reality.
Wyatt : Define "bad."
Rufus : We tried it once. The pilot came back, but not all of him.
Lucy : What?
Lucy voyant un bus : Oh!

[En ville à la descente du bus]
Rufus : So the back of the bus was amazing.
Lucy : Wow. Mom, I wish you could see this.
Wyatt : Come on, Professor, we gotta move. Tell us what we're getting into.
Lucy : Okay. The "Hindenburg" is just reaching the airfield, but she won't be able to land right away. [thunder rumbles.] Because of that. Light rain and high winds. So she'll make a bunch of turns, causing the air friction, building up static electricity. Then, at exactly 7:25 p.m., the "Hindenburg" will throw down the mooring ropes, but the ground crew will drag the ropes through the grass They get soaked.
Rufus : Which electrically grounds the ship, causing a spark in the metal hull.
Lucy : The spark ignites a leaking hydrogen balloon, burning 2,000 cubic liters and 36 people alive.
Rufus : So why is Flynn here?

Lucy [payant le vendeur de journaux] : Here you go.
vendeur de journaux : Thank you, miss.
Lucy : Thank you.
Maybe he wants to kill all 97 people on board instead of just the 36? Make a bad thing worse? Whatever it is, we find him first, fast as we can.
Rufus : And if we do find him?
Wyatt : Leave that to me.

[Dans le bar.]
[Billie Holiday's "Eeny Meeny Miney Mo" playing.]
Wyatt : It might be the '30s, but Jersey's Jersey.
Lucy : You see Flynn? Ah Um, everyone's staring at you. Maybe you should just wait outside?
Rufus : On a scale from Million Man March to Mississippi Burning, how safe do you think I'm gonna be out there?
Lucy : You should be fine, just, uh don't make eye contact with anyone.
Rufus : So glad I came.
[indistinct talking.]
Wyatt [au barman] : Hey, man. How's it going?
Barman : How's what going where?
Lucy [au barman] : How do you do, sir? Um, we were just wondering if you've seen this man?
Barman : Why's he wearing pajamas?
Lucy : Just have you seen him?
Barman : No, I don't think so.
Wyatt : Look again. It's important.
barman : Hey, what are you, deaf? I said I haven't seen him.
Wyatt : Yep. Jersey's Jersey.

[Dehors][motorized traffic.]

[Dans le bar.]
Lucy : That's Kate Drummond. Oh, right, of course she'd be here.
Wyatt : Who's she?
Lucy : She has a column in the Hearst papers. She covered the wars in Manchuria and Ethiopia.
[glasses clink.]
[laughs.]
Lucy : What?
Wyatt : Just reminds me of someone, that's all.
[whispers.]
Lucy : Wyatt!
[coin clanks.]
[ball rattles.]
Wyatt à Kate : That's a pinball machine?
Kate : Nothing gets past you, pal. Double or nothing?
Wyatt : Would you like a drink, Miss Drummond?
Kate : You know who I am?
Wyatt : Oh, yeah. The way you covered the wars in Manchuria and Ethiopia really makes a guy think.
Kate : Oh, you're a soldier.
Wyatt : How'd you know?
Kate : The pick-up line, for one. I've known too many soldiers.
Wyatt : Not like me, you haven't.
Lucy : Miss Drummond. Um, it is so nice to meet you. You are a hell of a writer.
Wyatt : This is my older sister, Lucy.
Kate : That's kind of you, Lucy.
Lucy : You're in town to cover the "Hindenburg's" arrival?
Kate : Yes, and then I'm riding it back to Europe for the coronation 'cause there's nothing like a tight, enclosed space with a bunch of stuffed shirts.
Wyatt : Well, maybe you won't have to take that trip after all.
[pinball machine dings.]
Have you seen this man?
Kate : Who is he? And why's he wearing pajamas?
Wyatt : He's a friend of ours.
Kate : Mm. Well, yes, he was here. About two hours ago.
Lucy : What was he doing?
Kate : Well, when the officers at the airfield need a couple of extra hands, this is where they pick 'em up. Your friend is working as ground crew. He's gonna help bring down the "Hindenburg."

[Dehors.]
Wyatt : We owe Kate another drink for that one. She is amazing.
Rufus : Who we talking about?
Lucy : Kate Drummond. She only has about 90 minutes to live. She'll be right under the "Hindenburg" when it crashes down on top of her.
Wyatt : Wait. You just stood there, chatting her up, knowing she's about to die?
Lucy : Well, we can't change anything. Today's the day she Today's her day.

[Dans la foule venue voir le dirigeable.]
Lucy : Excuse me. Excuse me.
[Lucy reconnait quelqu’un]
Guys, follow me. Follow me.
Commander Rosendahl? Oh um, I'm sorry to bother you, but it it's urgent.
Commander Rosendahl : Yes?
Lucy : Um This man is working as one of your ground crew, and it's very important we find him quickly.
Wyatt : He's a threat to your base, sir.
Commander Rosendahl : How? Who are you?

Lucy ; Well, uh, we're actually This is Doctor Dre. I'm Nurse Jackie. We're from General Hospital. This man is a patient of ours, which is, uh, - why he's –
Lucy et Wyatt ensemble : Wearing pajamas. He has a bad case of Spanish Flu, which last time killed, what, almost 700,000 people in the US alone, so, you can see why we're nervous.
Commander Rosendahl : Yes, yes, of course. I'll help however I can.
Lucy : Oh.
Commander Rosendahl : Officers! Step forward!
Soldat : Sir? Yes, sir.
Commander Rosendahl : This man is somewhere amongst this crowd.
[engine hovering.]
Rufus : He's only got five more minutes.
Wyatt : Yeah, let's split up. And if you see Flynn, don't engage. You find me first.

Marin : Starboard side! 
[bell dings.]
officier dans le dirigeable : Lassen Sie die Landelinien.
[air hissing.]
[film reel rolling.]
Reporter radio : It's practically standing still now.
Uh, they've dropped ropes out of the nose of the ship.
[camera snaps.]
[watch ticking.]
Lucy qui a repéré Flynn : Wyatt!
un marin à Kate : You believe something this big actually flies?
Kate : Men. Always obsessed with how big something is.
Wyatt :  Hi, there.
Remember me? -
Kate : Yes, hello.
Wyatt : Yeah, couple things I want to talk to you about. Maybe we can go someplace private.
Kate : In in a minute, I'm working.
Wyatt : Well, we don't have a minute, really.
Kate : Well, maybe you haven't noticed, soldier, but the ship is landing, it'll have to wait.
Wyatt : It can't wait.
Kate : No! Hey! You stay away from me!
Wyat : We're out of time!
Kate : Stop! Get off me!
Wyatt : Run! Run! It's gonna blow!
Kate : Stay away! Get off of me! Oh! You stay away from me!
[film reel rolling.]

Reporter radio : The majestic airship lands gracefully as passengers wave to the awed spectators.
[ship hovering.]
Rufus : Um That's not supposed to happen, right?
Wyatt : Where's Lucy?

[Dans un hangar]
un complice de Flynn s’en prennant à Lucy : Are you following us? Flynn wants to talk to you.
Wyatt au complice : Take me to Flynn.
Wyatt à Lucy : You okay?
Lucy : Flynn just saved the "Hindenburg." So no, I am definitely not okay.

[Le soir]
Wyatt : So saving the "Hindenburg," huh? How'd Flynn even do it?
Rufus : The mooring ropes. I saw crewmen, they didn't let the ropes touch the wet grass.
They wrapped them up. No wet ropes means the ship doesn't ground. There's no spark in the hull, no boom.
Wyatt : Those must've been Flynn's guys.
Lucy : I'm less concerned with how Flynn did it then why.
Wyatt : It's a bad thing 36 people lived?
Lucy : Very bad. It could change the present in ways we can't possibly predict.
Wyatt : Huh.
Rufus : Finally. Some civilization in this backwater crap-hole. I can rewire it to track the other walkie's signal, use it to find Flynn. Give me a minute.
[crickets chirping faintly.]
Lucy : You shouldn't have brought that gun.
Wyatt :  Oh, the one - I saved your ass with?
Lucy : We are surrounded by Nazis. What if one of them takes your future gun - to Berlin? -
Wyatt : Sometimes things get messy.
Lucy : It is my job to make sure there is no mess.
Wyatt : There's always a mess. That's the deal. So now we make it up as we go. And I take out Flynn. Which, by the way, might require the use of a damn gun.
Lucy : So if that's your job, why did you run off after Kate?
[tense music.]
Rufus : Hey, guys? Turns out I can't track Flynn because this isn't actually a walkie. At least, not anymore.
Wyatt : What do you mean?
Rufus : Someone soldered the lead wires. And then there's this thing.
Wyatt : Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. That's a blasting cap. This is a detonator.
Rufus : For a a bomb? Wait. Kate's column. Listen. "The 'Hindenburg' will welcome many luminaries aboard "its return trip to Europe and the king's coronation. John D.Rockefeller Jr., Omar Bradley, Igor Sikorsky"
Wyatt : I don't follow.
Lucy : Rockefeller's gonna help build the United Nations. Bradley's crucial to planning D-Day. S Sikorsky invented the damn helicopter. I mean, what if that's why Flynn saved the "Hindenburg"? What if he didn't want to blow it up on the way in because he wants to blow it up on the way out? If these people died, the the damage to the timeline it's it's catastrophic
poilicier 1 : Hands up!
[dramatic music.]
policier 2 : Stay right where you are!
Rufus : Let me guess, someone called in an anonymous tip?
policier: Shut up.

[L’équipe est mise dans deux cellules.]
Rufus : When do they invent deodorant?
Lucy : Please, just call the airfield and tell them that the "Hindenburg" is in danger! Please!
Wyatt : Piece-of-crap, old lock.
Lucy : Can you open it?
Wyatt : Oh, yeah. Easy with a hairpin, which I'm guessing you don't have.
Lucy : No, I don't.

Wyatt : How soon till the "Hindenburg" leaves?
Lucy : Just before dawn, so pretty soon.
Wyatt : Great, we just rot in here while all those people die.
Lucy :  While - Kate dies? Okay. So, what is it about her? Hmm?
Wyatt : Nothing.
Lucy : Okay, so you're just one of those soldiers who ignores his orders to chase a pretty face?
Wyatt : Kate reminds me of my wife. Okay? They even look alike. Little bit.
Lucy : I didn't know you were married.
Wyatt : Jessica died. It was my fault. If I could just change that one So when I saw Kate, I just couldn't let her.

Flynn habillé en serveur croissant Kate : Excuse me.

[Au poste de police.]
policier : What the hell kind of a gun is this? [scoffs.]
Wyatt : I know how to get out.
Lucy : How?
Wyatt à Rufus : Make a distraction.
Rufus : Uh ahem. Excuse me, can I get a glass of water, please, sir?
policier : Swallow your spit, boy.
Rufus : I'm not a boy, actually.
policier : Excuse me?
Rufus : You have eyes, right? You can tell I'm not a child, and I am definitely not your son, so don't call me "boy."
policier : I'm not sure you realize where you are, boy.
Rufus : Actually, I do. I'm in the damn Stone Age, but, man, I hope you live a long, long life. Long enough to see Michael Jordan dunk, Michael Jackson dance, Mike Tyson punch, really, just, any black guy named Michael. OJ? Yeah, he gets off. He did it, but we don't care. And Obama, he's the president. 2008. That's gonna suck for you! I hope you see it all. Because the future is not on your side, boy. [le policier s’éloigne] Okay, so where's he going?
Wyatt : Take off your bra.
Lucy :  What?
Wyatt :  Your modern bra.
Lucy : With underwire, yeah.
[suspenseful music.]
Wyatt : Here.
[door unlocks.]
Rufus : Uh gu guys? - Uh, Wyatt? - Okay, okay, okay, okay. Guy guys guys Wyatt? Okay, okay, okay.
Okay, guys, please stop. Don't come in here. Look, no, no-no-no! Hold on, stop, stop. No, no! Stop! -
Lucy : Oh, my God.
Wyatt : Not bad, Rufus.
Lucy :  Come on, come on. That was amazing.

[Dans le dirigeable.]
Rufus : How we gonna find the bomb?
Wyatt : Working on it.
Kate : Oh! - No, I need a steward! - No! I need a steward! You stay away from me, you attacked me!
Wyatt : No, no, I was trying to save you! I'm trying to save you right now. This ship is in danger. There is a bomb. And we're trying to find it.
Lucy : He's telling the truth.
Wyatt : The picture we showed you, that guy planted the bomb. Help us. Please.
Kate : I saw him. Follow me. He came out of here in a hurry.
Wyatt :  Look over there.
Okay.
[bomb beeping.]
Kate : What the hell is that?
Wyatt : We got to get this off the ship now.
Rufus : Uh about that.
Lucy : You've defused a bomb before, right?
Wyatt : I've seen it done. Had some training in Afghanistan.
Kate : Since when were we fighting Afghanistan?
Wyatt : Hey, I need you to ground the ship and get the people off.
Rufus : How do we do that?
Lucy : We make it up as we go.
[dramatic music.]
Lucy : Come on.

[Dans le cockpit.]
Lucy : Stay back! Stay back. We're the Anarchist Black Cross. We have a bomb on this ship. You're going to land now and await further demands.
Rufus : Do it or I'll cut his throat, you Nazis!

[Au sol
air siren wails.]
Flynn : The ship is landing. Something's wrong.

[Dans le dirigeable bomb beeping.]
Wyatt : Ask me something.
Kate : Wha like what?
Wyatt : Anything. It relaxes me to talk.
Kate : Anything, well Where the hell did this glowing clock come from? Or you, for that matter?
Wyatt : All right, look, I know this is hard to believe, but I'm gonna tell you the truth. My name is Buck Rogers and this thing came from outer space.
[soft laugh.]
[Ils sont attaqués par un soldat.]
Kate : Hey!
[pan clanks.]
Kate au soldat : Don't shoot, you idiot!
[gunshot.]
[bullet ricochets.]
[flames whoosh.]
[explosion.]

Rufus : Go! Go! We gotta go!
[flames whooshing.]
[grunts.]
[glass shatters.]

Wyatt : Come on!
[electricity sparking.]
[flames whooshing.]
soldat : Hey!
[explosion.]
[agonized screaming.]
Wyatt : Go, go!
[grunts.]
[glass shatters.]
[woman screaming.]
officier au sol : I need some help over here! Someone help!
[woman wailing.]
Lucy : Sir, do you need help? Here, here.
à Rufus : Go get that little girl! Here you go.
[indistinct shouting.]
Flynn braquant une arme sur Lucy : It's time we talked. You need to understand who and what you're dealing with.
Lucy : I understand that you're a psychopath trying to burn everything to the ground.
Flynn : Well, that depends on your point of view, Lucy.
Lucy : How do you know my name?
Flynn : I know everything about you. Your father's dead. You think you're meant to follow in your mother's footsteps, but you don't really want to. You wanna know how I know?
Lucy : That's my handwriting, but I didn't write that.
Flynn : Not yet. But you will.
[cries.]
I know what you're really meant to be, Lucy, and it isn't a teacher.
Lucy : Why would I believe anything from someone who killed their own family?
Flynn : Just ask them why they really chose you for this mission. And ask them what Rittenhouse is.
Lucy : Rittenhouse?

Wyatt à Kate : Get someplace safe!
Kate : Where are you going?
Wyatt : Have a good life.
[explosion.]
Flynn à Wyatt :  I know for a fact that you're not gonna shoot.
Lucy : Wyatt.
[gunshot.]
[grunts.]
Wyatt :  Kate?
Lucy : Oh, Kate. Oh, my God.
[indistinct talking.]
Wyatt : You got her?
Lucy : I got her! Go! Oh, my God.
Come on, stay with me.
I'm right here.
Wyatt : Move, move, move. You're okay
Here, let me.
Wyatt : Come on. Just relax, relax.
It's okay, it's okay. Come on. Kate, come Kate, come on! [gasping.]Come on.

[Chez Mason industries.]
Mason : The "Hindenburg" exploded early morning May the 7th, 1937. It was bombed by the Anarchist Black Cross. There were only two casualties. Journalist Kate Drummond and the man whose body was unable to be identified.
Wyatt : Okay, so so to you, this is what's in the books?  This is how it went down?
Mason : Of course.
Lucy : And the anarchist group? Three suspects who escaped from jail - and vanished without a trace?
Mason : Yes?
Lucy : That was us.
Agente Christopher : What?
Rufus : We had some issues.
Lucy : Flynn wanted a lot more than two casualties. He wanted to murder everyone onboard, and we stopped him, but the "Hindenburg," it wasn't supposed to happen like this. Flynn still changed history in in ways I [sighs.] In what ways I I don't know yet.
Agente Christooher : Did you see him?
Lucy : I spoke to him.
Agente Christopher : Really? What did he say?
Lucy : He said I should ask you why you chose me and what Rittenhouse means.
Agente Christopher : I have no idea what he's talking about. I don't know.
Mason : Rufus, where's Flynn now?
Rufus : Uh, the "Lifeboat's" CPU says that he's back in present day, but who knows where.
Wyatt : And so we can't go back to '37?  Give it another shot?
Rufus : No. Remember, we can't double-back to any place where we meet ourselves. There are no do-overs.
Mason :So what is Flynn after?
Lucy : I have a theory. Any anti-government wack-job can get a few barrels of fertilizer and blow up a federal building. It's not going to really change anything. Our institutions are too established, but in the past, things were a lot more fragile. I I think Flynn is trying to kill America in the crib. Rewrite history before it's even written.
[dramatic music.]
Agente Christopher : None of you are to say a word about any of this, under penalty of treason. If we need you, we'll call you.
Lucy :  Wait.
Rufus :  Need us?
Agente Christopher : Nothing has changed. Flynn is still out there. He still has the mother ship.
And you are still our best option. When he uses it again, we will call you.

Masaon : You have something for me?
Rufus : I didn't get everything. For some of it, they were out of earshot.
[enregistrement :
Wyatt : Those must have been Flynn's guys.
Lucy : I'm less concerned with how Flynn did it than why.
[beeps.]
I'm not at all comfortable with this. By the way.
Mason : Do you think I'm comfortable with any of this?

[door creaks.
Dehors.]
Lucy : Hey. When you shot Flynn, couple inches to the right, you would have blown my brains out.
You just that good or was I just that expendable?
Wyatt : Well, I guess I'm just that good, ma'am.
[scoffs.]
Lucy : Wyatt. You asked Rufus about going back to your own timeline because you want to change what happened to your wife, right? But maybe the "Hindenburg" was meant to explode, Kate was meant to die. Maybe we don't get to make it up as we go. - Maybe some things are just
Wyatt : What? Fate?

[A l’intérieur
piano plays Pink Floyd's "Wish You Were Here" .]
Jiya à Rufus : Hey. Um How was it? What was it like? Uh, you know, to time-travel? [laughs.]
Rufus : I'll take you to dinner, tell you all about it.
Jiya : Oh, uh Okay.

[Chez les Preston]
Lucy : Amy? How's she doing? Amy, I'm back!
Carol : Hi, sweetheart.
Lucy : Mom?
Carol : What was all that about Amy? Please say that you brought me a Snickers.
Hm? What's wrong?
Lucy : You're okay?
Carol : Yes, of course I'm okay.
Hey. Hey. Hey, hey.
What's gotten into you?
Lucy : I just How is this possible? How could how could The "Hindenburg" How could the "Hindenburg" have done this?
Carol : "Hindenburg"? Lucy, you're not making any sense.
Lucy : Sorry. I'm just so happy to see you.
Carol : Sweetheart. What's happened to your engagement ring?
Lucy : My what?
Carol : Sweetheart, what is wrong?
Lucy : Sorry, it's, um just a lot to, uh Where's Amy?
Carol : Lucy, you keep saying that. Amy who?
Lucy : No. No.
Carol : Lucy?
Lucy :  Amy?
Carol : Lucy?
Lucy : Amy!
Carol : Tell me what is going on.
Lucy : No. This isn't right.
Carol : I don't
Lucy : This isn't right.
Carol : Lucy, what are you talking about? You're starting to scare me.
[phone ringing.]
[phone beeps.]
Lucy :  Hello?
Agente Christopher : The car's turning around to pick you up, we need you  back here now. Flynn just took out the mother ship again.
Lucy : Where? When?
