S1 E15Unfinished Business

You got the wrong guy, hero ain't on my resume.

Or mine.

I know it's difficult for you to fathom, but where - when I'm from, the year 2166, you and everyone on this roof aren't just considered heroes... You're legends.

Legends?

I, um, I hate to nitpick, but doesn't a legend have to be dead?

JJJefferson "Jax" Jackson

Yeah, see, uh, that's deal breaker for me, so I'm gonna pass.

I can't believe you're hooking up with the Englishman. We're thieves. Crooks. Criminals. I have no desire to save the world. Especially 100 years after I'm dead.

He said across time, Mick. What about the years before? Before fingerprints and surveillance cameras and DNA analysis. Why did we become criminals?

Because we hate working and we love money.

Dr. Palmer, please tell me...

I didn't leave my exosuit on the ship? Okay, but I'd be lying.

Why the change of heart?

You ever play football? Yeah, I didn't think so... Anyway, the best feeling I ever got from being on the field wasn't when I made a great play or we won some game. It was when one of my team-mates took a tackle for me, and I knew they were gonna make sure I was safe. And nobody got to me. Watching all of you rush back to the ship, even those two knuckle-heads, to take on Chronos, made me feel the same way. I like being part of a team, man.

Me too.

Actually, I'm in charge, in case any of you have forgotten.

No, I remember. I just don't care.

We can't go back and change events in which we participated. Time would fold in on itself, creating a temporal vortex.

Which sounds way cooler than it is.

People actually wore this crap?

People smoked a lot of pot in the '70s. It clearly had a deleterious effect on the fashion of the era.

We wouldn't want my former self tempted by a sexy assassin from the future.

Aww, you think I'm se—

Do not finish that sentence.

What about the rest of us? Do we just sit?

Capital idea, Mr. Rory. You're not nearly as thick as most people say.

Thick... does that mean stupid?

What the hell happened back there?

You know I'm a killer. That's why you put me in your little group.

I didn't witness just a killer at work, Sara. What I saw was an animal.

You are the last person on this ship to judge anyone!

This is not judgement, Sara. It is concern.

I thought you knew how I was resurrected and what it did to me.

I know you were restored by something called the Lazarus Pit.

Well, apparently there's a downside to being brought back to life. My friend, Thea, calls it a blood lust, and I think that's being too generous, and so is calling me an animal. I'm a monster.

All right, where am I headed?

You're exiting the tracheal artery. You should see the first fragment.

No sign of it. Did I miss it?

It's the size of an iceberg. It seems highly unlikely that you could miss it.

Huh. That's probably what they said on the Titanic.

I know how it feels.

What?

To have a crisis of confidence. As unlikely as it might seem, I know. It was 2002. I was teaching quantum mechanics, and I had one particularly gifted student. He was able to solve the Ehrenfest theorem in less than an hour. He was, quite frankly, the only student in all my years of teaching who ever made me feel inferior. That student was you. You were exceptional.

And suddenly, just like that, you remember having me in your class.

I always remembered. I just enjoyed taking you down a peg or two.
