My love is vengeance.
That's never free.
David?
It's not much, it's, it's a bit drippy sometimes,
isn't it?
But we're happy.
Cube sweet cube.
We've been here for about an hour.
No. What's the word?
Um... "soup"?
No, don't think it's soup.
We've been here longer than that.
Anyhoo...
What happened. Well...
the world ended.
Sweetheart, don't be so dramatic.
- It didn't end. - It...
- It's still out there. - I'm exaggerating.
- Sunrise, sunset. - She had some...
- You know, everybody toiling away. - Toil, toil, toil.
You know, good versus evil, all that sort of thing.-
We just...
well, we just don't...
- do that sort of thing anymore. - No.
We were just losing too much hair.
Time. Time.
It was time that we were losing,
my beloved and I.
Groom and bride.
- Our bodies. What do we do with... - Our bodies.
What do we do with our bodies?
They're... safe.
Um, somewhere.
They're hidden.
To tell you the location would be un... genius.
I-It's actually better without them.
You know, all those aches and pains and...
aging.
Not to mention various gases.
Stop.
But it's so much more romantic now.
It's just...
well, every meal is a feast,
every day a blessing.
"O dandelion, rich and haughty,
"King of village flowers!
"Each day is coronation time,
"You have no humble hours.
"I like to see you bring a troop.
"To beat the bluegrass spears,
"To scorn the lawnmower
"that would be like fate's triumphant shears.
"Your yellow heads are cut away,
"It seems your reign is o'er.
"By noon you raise a sea of stars.
More golden than before."
- We miss them, our friends. - We miss people. Of course.
You know, our coworkers,
like, um...
of course, Glasses McLabcoat
and, the...
the-the girl who would kick,
- kick everyone, I miss her. - Yeah.
And Sydney. Don't forget Sydney.
- I had forgotten Sydney, yes. - It...
what happened to her was so sad.
Very sad.
What was it that happened to her again?
- The betrayal. - She was betrayed.
After the fight with Farouk,
when David...
- The Turn. - Turned.
The Turn.
There was a great battle with...
what's his face.
- Fa... Farouk. - Farouk. Farouk.
Very soothing voice, I found. Very hypnotic.
I remember helping him.
Yes, I... I do, too.
Why did he turn again, this David person?
Because she showed him his future.
No.
No, no, no, no.
We need to talk.
Sure.
Let me just finish killing this asshole.
You haven't had a lot of girlfriends, or you'd know...
When a woman wants to talk, you talk.
Could you maybe not point that thing at me?
You read the stories.
The women who marry serial killers and have six kids...
Meanwhile, he's driving around Portland every night
with a van full of duct tape.
What?
They have to know.
Right? The wives, deep down.
At least a feeling, something's wrong.
I know, with you. Now.
Syd, I'm the good guy.
He's the monster.
No.
You're not that.
A good guy?
I thought so for a long time.
And then I saw the things you hide.
And it hit me.
What if you're not the hero?
What if you're just another villain?
The real villain.
Why? 'Cause...
because I didn't tell you the whole truth?
Because I-I left?
- He kills people. - You...
kill people.
Dozens at Division 3 last year.
No. That was him.
He had c-control.
The Son of Sam had a dog who gave him commands,
but every time he pulled the trigger, he pulled the trigger.
Seriously, why are you doing this?
I... know.
That's the thing.
I've seen your true face.
You hid it so well.
I love you.
Maybe.
But here's what matters more.
You lie to me.
You leave me.
- You keep secrets. - No.
You're doing it right now.
Unless maybe you don't know the difference... truth, lie.
Maybe...
it's not even your fault.
He was in your head for so long, poisoning every thought.
Are you okay? Y-Your neck, that's a lot of blood.
It's not mine.
Listen to me, I know it's been hard...
I saw what you did to Oliver.
To the soldiers at Division 3.
I saw the look on your face.
You liked it.
No, I did what I had to.
You tortured Oliver.
You were beating him to death.
That's not a love story.
Wait, I...
I'm just, we're just, this is...
We're just doing what you said. You.
This is war. We're in a war.
What am I willing to do?
How far am I willing to go?
- I know I said that, but... - And that's all I'm doing.
That is all I am doing... What you said.
No. No.
Baby, please.
What happened to "God loves the sinners best"?
It won't work.
We're all powerless now.
Goddamn it, put the gun down and talk to me.
He's gonna... it's gonna wear off, and then he'll be...
You heard them... unstoppable.
And, look, I'm sorry if you have abandonment issues.
And I was taken away by you, if we're being...
If we're laying all our cards out on the table,
so think about that. I didn't leave.
You kidnapped me from the future.
Did you ever ask why? Why would I do that?
Reach out from the future?
Why ask you to help Farouk find his body?
Because of the world... The end of the world?
And who does that, end the world? Not him, right?
Otherwise, why would I ask you to save him?
I don't know. You wouldn't, you didn't tell me.
- It's you. - What's me?
You're the one who destroys everything, who ends the world.
No.
It never occurred to you
that you're the problem, not the solution.
- H-How could you even... - He showed me... Farouk.
He went to see her, too... Me, in the future...
After you quit.
See, in her timeline, you killed Farouk,
and then there was no one powerful enough to stop you
- when you turned. - When I...
So she tricked you into helping him... your enemy...
So that he could stop you
when you showed us who you really are.
I know.
It's cold to do that to someone that you used to love.
Used to?
Baby, please, I'm right here.
Your man. Don't you trust me?
Maybe I just trust myself more.
No. He's...
You're being tricked. Syd, please.
Syd, please.
You know me.
Yeah, I do.
And guess what? You're not the hero.
