I know you have

a gun between your legs.

No? Well, you'll get it eventually.

Obviously.All right, listen.

This is a hard situation, but we both

know how this has to go down.

I can't let you walk away

from this diner.

This is my life now. I earned it.

You had yours already.

So why don't you do what old men do

and die? Get the f*** out of my way.

Why don't you take your gun out

from between your legs and do it?

Boy.

It's hard staring into your eyes.

It's too strange.

Your face looks backwards.

So you know what's gonna happen?

You've done all this already?

I don't want to talk about

time travel sh*t.

If we start talking about it,

we're gonna be here all day.

Making diagrams with straws.

It doesn't matter.

I hurt myself, it changes your body.

Does what I do change your memories?

It doesn't matter!

My memory is cloudy.

It's a cloud.

Because my memories

aren't really memories.

They're just one possible

eventuality now.

And they grow clearer or cloudier

as they become more or less likely.

But then they get to the present moment,

and they're instantly clear again.

I can remember

what you do after you do it.

And it hurts.

So even when we're apart,

you can remember what I do after?

Yes.

But this is a precise description

of a fuzzy mechanism.

It's messy.

All I know... I know two things.

I know what's happening in my head.

And I know that you're gonna meet her.

Who?

She's gonna save your life.

For a long time, she thought we'd...

We'd have a baby.

She'd have been a great mother.

She wanted it so much.

Yeah, but she...?

How...?

So she saves my life?

Yes.

Let's take a look at your life.

You're a killer.

And a junkie.

A f***ing child mentality.

What's mine." "My life."

Save your life. You're asking me how?

The question is why. Why would

someone sacrifice their life?

Cut your high and mighty bullshit.

I don't need my life...

Shut your f***ing child mouth.

You're so self-absorbed and stupid.

And she's gonna clean you up

and she's gonna...

You're gonna take her love

like a sponge.

And you think,

Maybe I'm clear of the past.

Maybe I'm safe."

Yesterday.

Yesterday what?

Thirty years from now

is yesterday.

You're not gonna remember it.

I'm gonna tell you what happens

to this beautiful woman

who saves your worthless f***ing life.

Have you heard of the Rainmaker?

Yeah, Seth said that night.

New boss in the future?

He used the words "holy terror."

Yeah. A reign of terror.

Mass executions. Vagrant purges.

Everywhere at once.

Legend is the Rainmaker

came out of nowhere.

In the span of six months, he took total

control of the five major syndicates.

That'd take an army.

He didn't have an army.
