12 Monkeys

- Previously - on "12 Monkeys"...

My father had plans for me.

I was a thing in a box.

The Witness in my head?

I saw a place called Titan.

Titan only leads to death.

- Your friends, - their rage is blinding.

- It's a CIA - intelligence report,

The only record

of a place called Titan.

East Germany, 1961,

and a doctor named Kirschner.

- James Cole - is loyal to a fault.

- You and Deacon? - I don't have to like the guy

To see that he cares about you.

- Paradox Primaries... - There's one more we don't know.

1957, Upstate New York,

a paradox so powerful,

it destroys the fabric of time.

It took us some time

to find it.

- No one in our organization - has set foot in here

In over 50 years.

I had no idea it was

so important to our history.

To our future.

The Witness

has spoken...

Madam?

What happened here?

Betrayal.

Christ, Whitley.

What are we doing out here?

Jones needs more data.

Yeah.

You really think that

more data's gonna stop that?

Your silence is deafening.

No one's forcing

you to stay, Deacon.

You could always join

the rest of your men.

How many was it

went AWOL this week?

I'd ask what's keeping you here,

but we both know, don't we?

Does she?

Let's hurry this up.

Easy! Easy!

It's just a kid.

Hey.

You came from

the camp near here?

They're all gone.

Your parents,

they get caught in it?

Shit.

We've got to move.

Come on, kid.

Hey!

Whitley!

[wind whooshing

Mr. Whitley's team encountered

another temporal storm.

At this rate, these anomalies

will consume this facility

in just five days,

if we're lucky.

So what are our options?

We must prevent

this last paradox.

Primary in '57.

Are we sure that'll

stop all this?

These paradoxes, they're

like gunshot wounds in time.

We can survive

the one from 1944,

but this last paradox

will bleed us out.

Everything we know about '57

comes from the enemy.

- But we've picked up - an enormous amount

Of temporal fallout

between 1956 and 1958.

The highest readings coincide

with a single event...

- An explosion at the factory - in New York

On November 7, 1957.

Hundreds of people

were killed.

The temporal signature

indicates

a massive paradox.

We'd have a full year

to complete the mission.

We go back, do whatever we can

to locate the Primary

before the remaining

Messengers can paradox.

- But if the facility's going - to be destroyed in days,

- Our real-time tethers - will break,

And everyone will die here.

But if you succeed

and stop the paradox,

time will shift and undo

all the destruction

that has occurred here.

Won't work.

Nothing ever does

when she plays God.

We got something better.

What's that?

A CIA document.

Most of this is redacted.

Read what's not.

Dr. Albert Kirschner,

a war criminal

captured in East Berlin

on August 13, 1961,

by Mossad.

Mossad?

Israeli Intelligence.

They were hunting down

former Nazis in '61.

The report mentions

a place called Titan

and a man called

The Witness.

This is it.

We go back to 1961,

- we find Kirschner - before the Mossad does,

We find Titan,

we find The Witness,

- we cut the head - off of the snake.

That's not gonna stop

the storms out there.

We save the world by killing

the one who destroys it.

Yeah, or we die trying.

We choose the wrong mission now,

we don't get a second chance.

We're going back to '57.

You gonna make that call now?

- You know, we're always - a step behind.

For once, why don't we

take the fight to them?

- Look who's all leap - and no look now.

- You know what the - difference is, brother?

I earned it.

So has she.

If I may interject,

the Core has enough power

for both jumps.

We don't have the time,

Dr. Adler.

Look, I need you,

both of you.

I can't do this alone.

One last mission

to stop the paradox.

After that, we will come back,

find The Witness,

and make him pay.

I promise.

Jones.

- You're willing - to die here on the chance

That maybe we can undo it?

If I were being forced

to bet my life on a mission,

I'd prefer it would be

one of hope

rather than revenge.

Are you with Mr. Cole

or are you not?

Yeah.

We'll go.

Good.

Dr. Adler, splinter calculation

for January 1957

will take several hours.

Let's go.

Ramse.

You sure caved quickly.

Adler, what do you think?

Ha, since when did

that matter to you?

- You know what The Witness - did to her,

To my son.

Don't patronize me

like I'm some fool,

Mr. Ramse.

I lost my son as well

in the plague.

- I, too, know - what it's like

To be denied retribution

every single day.

So help me.

Help me right that wrong.

- Well, I'm sorry - to inform you,
