but you can see now

I'm not evil.

I saved you.

Maybe a small part of you

is good.

Yes, it is.

That's my favorite part.

Stop talking.

What is that thing,

anyway?

It's a data base that cross-references

historical documents

about you and

this time period

to help with

my mission.

[electronic blips]

So, what, it like

reads my diary

in the future

or something?

Your diary's in here, too.

Yes.

You didn't read it,

right?

That thing is

how you found me.

- It knew about the fire alarm.

- Yes.

- We can stop it.

- Stop what?

If that thing knows

everything about me,

then it also knows

how I turn evil,

which means we could

stop it from happening.

- No.

- I am not evil,

at least not yet,

and I don't want to be.

My mission is to

eliminate--

Your mission is to stop the world

from being destroyed.

This is another way

to do it.

- That's not up to me.

- But it can be.

Please.

You've got two months.

Yes!

Should we make it three?

Two months is great.

That's how long I'm stuck in

your time period, anyway.

I'm just gonna need, like,

a little more info.

The way

time travel works is

you can't just jump to

whatever day you want.

Otherwise, there would be cowboys

riding dinosaurs in ancient Greece.

That sounds amazing.

There are time portals

that we have to locate.

The next one back to my time

is in two months.

Seriously, do you ever feel ridiculous

saying "time portal"?

Sometimes.

Okay. I'm totally ready.

Whatever it is,

let's change some destinies.

If you want to

change your destiny,

we have to change

all the events

that lead you down

the dark path.

First thing:
You can't

talk to her anymore.

- Hailey:
He didn't do anything.

- [laughing]

And then--

- But Hailey is--

- I know exactly who Hailey Roskins is.

Okay, so she's not

the best influence,

but how would you feel if I told you

to ditch your best friend?

I don't have friends.

You don't have

one friend?

When you're running from

killer robots

every waking hour,

it makes it hard

to get to know people.

Sorry about that.

What if me and Hailey were, like,

evening-weekend friends?

- Text only?

- No contact.

[sighs] But why?

Or we could always

go back to plan A.

Fine.

What else?

Quit the science fair.

[scoffs] Of course,

you'd ask me to give up

the one thing I've been

working on for...

forever.

So that's a yes?

[sighs] Yes.

One last thing.

Stand up to

Gary McGinty.

Is this a joke?

Oh, let me check.

No.

How do I even do this?

Easy.

He's about to steal money

from those kids.

You need to stop him.

What do we have here?

What'd I tell you

about this hall?

Okay, I get it.

To change my destiny,
