HINCKLEY: Dear Jodie,
there is a definite possibility
that I will be killed in my attempt to get Reagan.
It is for this very reason
that I am writing you this letter now.
I would abandon this idea of getting Reagan in a second
if I could only win your heart
and live out the rest of my life with you,
whether it be in total obscurity,
or whatever.
I will admit to you that the reason
I am going ahead with this attempt now
is because I just cannot wait any longer
to impress you.
I've got to do something now
to make you understand in no uncertain terms
that I am doing all of this for your sake.
[DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING]
By sacrificing my freedom,
possibly my life,
I hope to change your mind about me.
This letter is being written
an hour before I leave for the Hilton Hotel.

I'm asking you to please look into your heart
and at least give me the chance
with this historical deed
to gain your respect and love.
I love you forever.

Reagan is finishing
a luncheon address at the Hilton.
It's supposed to happen on his way out at 2:27 p.m.
Shooter was some nutjob
obsessed with Jodie Foster, right?
John Hinckley, the son of a well-connected
Texas oil family, but a nutjob, nonetheless.
He was going to stalk Jodie Foster at Yale
when he heard that Reagan was speaking
and thought killing him would impress her.
As you do. Nobody died?
Press secretary James Brady was paralyzed
until he ultimately died in 2014 from his injuries.
Brady Bill's named after him, but no,
nobody's supposed to die, not today.

How do you think the talk is going?
You know, we could have told her everything.
About Rittenhouse.
We have no idea
what kind of butterfly effect that would create.
Knowing the future is a huge responsibility.
I wouldn't wish it on anyone.

I'm sorry. This gift
that I have... I mean, what's it for?
So I can start grieving in advance?
Maybe Rufus is right.
Maybe I'm supposed to walk away from him.

Jiya.
Did you ever think that maybe you are seeing these things
so that you can save Rufus?
Just like we're trying to save her.
I used to think that history was set in stone,
unchangeable,
and then my sister disappeared.
And I just...
I just see how fragile it all is.
If we can change the past,
there has to be a way that we can change the future.

We were gonna let you go.
Must've thought Rittenhouse would find him, no matter what.
In a way,
I guess he was a victim, too.
What do I do now?
Take that job with the FBI.
The rest will fall into place.
What if I make the wrong decisions?
You won't, I promise.
Here, take this.
You won't be able to use it for another 20 years,

Come here.
Thank you. It's gonna be okay.

I've waited 37 years

No thanks necessary, ma'am.
Well, you saved my life twice.
Guess that's why I always knew
you were the right man for this job.
"Cagney" and "Lacey."

You saved my family. I've never forgotten that.

I can't imagine the stress.

Maybe you should hold on to this for now.
I can't tell you what it was like
the first time I saw a computer that could use one of those.
Right, well, now that everyone's back safely,
I'll be taking off early. It's family night,
and my mother's got a chicken biryani
and a shrimp curry waiting for me.
I'll bring you leftovers.
Wait, wait, your mother?
Yeah. It wasn't an easy road,
but... She came around eventually.
It must be nice, uh,
having her in your life.
Oh, we still have our moments.
You know what a pain in the ass she is,
but she sure can cook, and...
She loves my kids.
I can't imagine our lives without her.
There were definitely some rough patches, but...
Knowing what was waiting for me...

He tried to kill Agent Christopher.

Could still be me. What are you talking about?
If your visions end up true, then...
I could end up just like that sleeper.
Alone,
dead in the past,
some unidentified body, an 18th-century John Doe.
You're not alone, Rufus.

No, I mean,

Look, we're problem solvers, Rufus.
We don't just give up. We find a way.
We make more time.
Okay, 'cause the only visions I want to see

When you gave me the journal, you said you got it from me.
Please do come in.
I want to know what you meant by that.
Sure you want to know? Yes.
I do.
It was two weeks after my family was killed.
I was, uh, alone, in hiding.
The only thing keeping me from killing myself
was the, um, idea of
stopping these beasts who had done this thing.
At that point, I had no plans.
I ran as far as I could.
I ended up in a bar,
in Sao Paulo, Brazil.
I was on my third drink when you walked in.
You looked maybe
five years older than you look now,
uh, but no less...
You looked good.
You told me your name. [LAUGHS]
You... You knew everything.
How my family died.
That Rittenhouse was behind all of this.
You told me
there is a way for me to stop them,
and that to do it,
I was gonna need your help,
and that's when you handed me the journal.
So, Lucy, you
started all of it. No, that's impossible.
We can't travel into our own timeline.
Okay, maybe not now,
but maybe one day,
Rufus and Jiya will figure it out.
Wait, what are you saying? In the future...
I'm saying, you came up to me in the bar,
you handed me this journal,
and, then, you just left.
But that doesn't make any sense.
Well, Lucy, that's all I know.
The rest, I suppose, you'll have to wait
and see what happens.
