James, why don't we...?
Lock it now!
Mason???
Jeffrey Mason?
All I see are dead people. Everywhere. What's three more?
You know Dr. Mason's son, Jeffrey Mason, don't you, James? You met him in the County Hospital six years ago.
The guy was a total fruitcake.
And he told you then his father was a famous virologist.
We need gas.
I thought you didn't know how to drive.
I said I was too young to drive. I didn't say I was stupid.
What's the matter with your leg?
I got shot. Look there's a gas station up ahead.
Shot! Who shot you?
It was some kind of...war. Never mind, you wouldn't believe me. Turn off here.
You were going to run out off gas on purpose, weren't you?
No. I want you to turn yourself in, James It'll go much better for you if you do but I'm not going to trick you.
That has your name on it. Give him cash.
You smell so good.
You have to give yourself up, you know.
What have you done? Did you...kill someone?
No! I...don't think so. I stole a car and they chased me. I hit a tree.
See you can drive after all!
Yeah, sort of, I guess. I...I'm sorry I locked you up. I thought...I thought... I think maybe I am crazy!
What made you think that?
Jeffrey Mason said it was my idea about the virus. And suddenly, I wasn't sure. We talked when I was in the institution, and it was all...fuzzy. The drugs and stuff. You think maybe I'm the one who wiped out the human race? It was my idea?
Nobody is going to wipe out the human race. Not you or Jeffrey or anybody else. You've created something in your mind, James a substitute reality. In order to avoid something you don't want to face.
I'm..."mentally divergent". I would love to believe that.
It can be dealt with, but only if you want to. I can help you.
I need help all right. They're coming after me.
First, it's important that you surrender to them instead of them catching you running. Okay?
It would be great if I'm crazy. If I'm wrong about everything...the world will be okay. I'll never have to live underground.
Give me the gun.
The gun! ... I lost it
You're sure?
No gun! Stars! Air! I can live here. Breathe!
James! That's a policeman. Pretend you don't know me. If he sees you...
No, I want to turn myself in. Where is he? Don't worry it's all okay now. I'm not crazy any more! I mean, I am crazy, mentally divergent, actually, but I know it now and I want you to help me. I want to get well...
I don't understand what we're doing.
We're avoiding the police until I can....talk to you.
You mean, treat me? Cure me? Kathryn, those words on the wall I've seen them before... I...I...dreamed them.
Okay...you were standing there looking at the moon...you were eating grass... then what?
I thought I was in...prison again.
Just like that? You were in prison?
No, not really. It's...it's in my mind. Like you said.
You disappeared! One minute you were there, the next minute you were gone. Did you run through the woods?
I don't know I don't remember.
The boy in the well. How did you know that was just a hoax?
It was? I didn't...know.
James, you said he was hiding in the barn...
I think I saw a TV show like that when I was a kid. Where a boy...
IT WASN'T A TV SHOW! IT WAS REAL!
What does this mean to you?
...I had a dream about...something like that.
You had a bullet from World War One in your leg, James! How did it get there?
You said I had delusions that I created a world you said you could explain everything...
Well, I can't. ... I mean...I'm trying to. I can't believe that everything we do or say has already happened, that we can't change what's going to happen, that I'm one of the three billion people who are going to die...soon.
I want to be here. In this time. With you. I want to become...become a whole person. I want this to be the present. I want the future to be unknown.
James...do you remember...six years ago...you had a phone number! You tried to call and...
You want me to rob him?
I...I...We need cash, James.
It's a Carpet Cleaning Company...
A Carpet Cleaning Company?
No superiors! No scientists. No people from the future. It's just a Carpet Cleaning Company. They have voice mail you leave a message telling them when you want your carpet cleaned.
You... you left them a message?
I couldn't resist. I was so relieved. Wait'll they hear this nutty woman telling them...they better watch out for the Army of the Twelve Monkeys...
You... you couldn't have heard me.
They got your message, Kathryn. They played it for me. It was a bad recording...distorted. I didn't recognize your voice.
I think I've seen this movie before. When I was a kid. It was on TV.
Shh don't talk. Hold still.
I have seen it, but I don't remember this part. Funny, it's like what's happening to us, like the past. The movie never changes it can't change but everytime you see it, it seems to be different because you're different you notice different things.
If we can't change anything...because it's already happened, then we ought to at least smell the flowers.
Flowers! What flowers?
Why are we doing this?
So we can stick our heads out the window and feel the wind and listen to the music. So we can appreciate what we have while we have it. Forgive me, psychiatrists don't cry.
But maybe I'm wrong. Maybe you're wrong. Maybe we're both crazy.
In a few weeks, it will have started or it won't. If there are still baseball games and traffic jams, armed robberies and boring TV shows we'll be so happy, we'll be glad to turn ourselves in to the police.
You were in my dream just now. I didn't recognize you.
Well, you look pretty different, too.
I mean in my dream I didn't realize it was you. Then...I woke up and I...I thought you were gone.
I remember you...like this. I feel I've known you before. I feel I've always known you.
That's what they were up to! Freeing animals!
On the walls they meant the animals when they said, "We did it."
I know this place! ... This is my dream.
Airports all look the same. Maybe it's... James! Your moustache! It's slipping.
They may be looking for us, James. Use this. You can fix it in the Men's Room.
I was here...as a kid. I think you were here, too. But you...looked just like you look now.
James, if we're identified, they're going to send us someplace...but not to Key West!
Right! You're right. I have to fix this.
I'll get the tickets and meet you... in the Gift Shop.
It's important to observe everything.
I think it was...I'm sure it was 2nd Street.
They forced me to take drugs.
Forced you! Why would someone force you to take drugs?
I got into trouble. I got arrested. But I still got you a specimen a spider but I didn't have anyplace to put it, so I ate it. It was the wrong year anyway, so I guess it doesn't matter.
Let's consider again our current information if the symptoms were first detected in Philadelphia on June 28, 1995, that makes us know that...?
It was released in Philadelphia, probably on June 14, 1995.
And it appeared sequentially after that in...?
San Francisco, New Orleans, Rio de Janeiro, Rome, Kinshasa, Karachi, Bangkok, then Peking.
Meaning...???
