[WARDEN CONTINUES INDISTINCT]
Jose.
Jose, what's going on?
Bad news, man.
Volunteers?
Yeah, and they said your name.
Hey, maybe they'll
give you a pardon, man.
Yeah. That's why none of the volunteers
come back. They all get a pardon.
Some came back, I heard.
[CHUCKLES] Yeah.
Please put me back!
Don't take me.
They got 'em up on the seventh
floor. They hide 'em up there.
They're all messed up in
the head. Brains don't work.
You don't know they're all
messed up. Nobody's seen 'em.
Maybe they're not messed up.
That's a rumor. Nobody knows that.
I don't believe that.
Good luck, man.
Volunteer duty.
COLE: I didn't volunteer.
You causing trouble again?
No, no trouble.
PA, FEMALE WARDEN: These are
the instructions for the first time probe.
Listen carefully,
they must be followed exactly.
All openings of your garment
must be sealed completely.
If the integrity of the suit
is compromised in any way,
if the fabric is torn
or a zipper not closed,
re-admittance will be denied.

the subject will be denied
reentry to secure population.
FEMALE WARDEN: Please place
blood sample in receptacle provided.
There will be a socialization
class in room 700
for citizens cited
for deviations 23-A and 96-A
per subchapter six of
the Permanent Emergency Code.
MAN: James Cole,
cleared from quarantine.
Thank you.
You two wait outside.
He's got a history, Doctor.
Violence.
Anti-social six. Repeated violations
of the Permanent Emergency Code.
Insolence. Defiance.
Disregard of authority.
Doing 25 to life.
I don't think
he's gonna hurt us.
You aren't gonna hurt us,
are you, Mr. Cole?
No, sir.
Why don't you sit down,
Mr. Cole?
We appreciate your volunteering.
You're a very good observer.
Thank you.
GEOLOGIST: We have a very advanced
program. Something very different.
MICROBIOLOGIST: Opportunity
to reduce your sentence.
ZOOLOGIST: And possibly
play an important role
in returning the human race
to surface of the earth.
ASTROPHYSICIST: We want
tough-minded people. Strong mentally.
We've had some misfortunes
with unstable types.
ENGINEER: For a man in
your position, an opportunity.
Not to volunteer
could be a real mistake.
MICROBIOLOGIST:
Definitely a mistake.
WOMAN: "Yet among
the myriad microwaves,
"the infrared messages, the
gigabytes of ones and zeros,
"we find words,
byte-sized now,
"tinier even than science,
lurking in some vague electricity.
"But if we but listen,
"we hear the solitary voice

"tomorrow's silent triumph or despair.
"Drink, for you know not
whence you came, nor why.
"Drink, for you know not

[CHATTING]
...wandering around in
nothing but his underpants
and one of those plastic,
see-through lady's raincoats.
So, they get there, they ask the
guy real nice for some kind of ID.
He gets agitated, starts
screaming about viruses.
Totally irrational,
totally disoriented.
Doesn't know where he is,
what day of the week it is.
Lemme see.
All they got was his name.
Thanks.
Of course, they figured
he's stoned out of his mind.
Some kind of
psychotic episode.
He's been tested for drugs?
Negative for drugs.
But he took on five cops like
he was dusted to the eyeballs.
No drugs. You believe that?
He's in restraints.
Yeah. Weren't you listenin'? I've
got two police officers in the hospital!
The medic gave him enough Stelazine
to k*ll a horse. Look at him. Rarin' to go.
That would explain the
bruises, I guess. The struggle.
Yeah. You wanna go in there,
examine him, what?
Yes, please.
Is this all you have?
Ran it through your system?
No match up. No license, no
prints, no warrants. Nothing.
I should probably
go in with you.
No, thank you.
That won't be necessary.
All right. He'll be
right here, just in case.
Mr. Cole, my name is Kathryn
Rattly. I'm a psychiatrist.
I work for the county.
I don't work for the police.
So my concern is for your
well-being. Do you understand that?
Need to go! Need to go!
I can't make
the police let you go.
But I do want to
help you, so I...
I need you to tell me
exactly what happened tonight.
Do you think
you can do that, James?
May I call you James?
James.
Nobody ever calls me that.
Have you been a
patient at County? No.
Have I seen you someplace?
Not possible.
I need to go. I need to... I'm
supposed to be gathering information.
What kind of information?
Won't help you.
Won't help anyone.
Won't change anything.
James, do you know
why you're here?
'Cause I'm a good observer.
Got a tough mind.
I see.
You don't remember
assaulting a police officer?
Why am I chained?
Why are these chains on me?
You've been in an
institution before, haven't you?
Or hospital?
No! Now I need to go!
Need to go!
Have you been in prison,
James? Underground.
Hiding?
I love this air.
Oh, it's such wonderful air.
What's wonderful about the air,
James? Very fresh. No germs.
Why do you think there
aren't any germs in the air?
This is October, right?
April.
What year is this? What
year do you think it is?
That's the future, James. Do
you think you're living in the future?
No, 1996 is the future.
This is 1990.
[LOUD CHATTING]
Shut up, ladies.
Where're you taking me?
South of France, buddy.
Fancy hotel. You'll love it.
I can't go. I just need
to make a telephone call.
Yeah, yeah. Zip it, daisy. You
fooled the shrink, but you don't fool us.
Let's go, ace.
All right.
Come on, come on.
There you go. Now, lemme
see your head, Jimbo.
See if you got
any creepy crawlers.
I need to make
a telephone call.
Got to take you over to the doctor, Jimbo.
Can't make no calls 'til the doctor says.
It's very important! What you
got to do, Jimbo, is take it easy.
Relax into things. And we'll all
get along fine if you just relax.
Wow! Whoo!
Let's go.
Come on, let's go.
Hey, Goines!
Yo. Goines!
Yo. Jeffrey!
Goines!
What?
Look here. This here's James.
Now, do me a favor.
Why don't you show him around?
Tell him the TV rules. Show
him the games and stuff. Okay?
How much you gonna pay me?
How much? I'd be doin' your job.
Five thousand dollars, my man.
That enough?
JEFFREY: Five thousand.
I'll wire a check
to your account as usual.
Five thousand dollars!
Five thousand dollars!
Five thousand dollars.
I'll give him the deluxe
mental hospital tour.
My man! Kid around,
makes 'em feel good.
We're pals. I love you. You're the
prisoners. No, you're the guards.
Now you got it.
Okay, it's all in good fun.
Here's some games here.
And there's...
Get out! Get out!
[WHIMPERING]
He was in my chair.
Games. Games.
Here's some games.
Games that wanna get out.
See? More games.
Games, they vegetize you.
See?
If you play the games, you're
voluntarily taking a tranquilizer.
I guess they gave you
some chemical restraints.
Drugs!
What'd they give you? Thorazine?
Haldol? How much? How much?
Learn your drugs. Know
your doses. It's elementary.
I need to make a telephone
call. A telephone call?
That's communication
with the outside world.
Doctor's discretion. No.
If all of these nuts
could just make phone calls,
it could spread insanity,
oozing through telephone cables,
oozing to the ears of all these
poor, sane people, infecting them.
Wackos everywhere.
A plague of madness.
In fact, very few, Jim...
Jim, very few of us here
are actually mentally ill.
I'm not saying
you're not mentally ill.
For all I know
you're crazy as a loon.
But that's not
why you're here.
That's not why you're here!
That's not why you're here!
You're here
because of the system.
There's the television.
It's all right there.
All right there.
Look, listen, kneel, pray.
The commercials!
We're not productive anymore.
Don't make things anymore.
It's all automated. What are we
for then? We're consumers, Jim.
Okay, okay. Buy a lot of
stuff, you're a good citizen.
But if you don't buy a lot
of stuff, what are you then?
What? You're mentally ill!
Fact, Jim. Fact.
If you don't buy things:
toilet paper, new cars,
electrically operated
sexual devices,
stereo systems with
brain-implanted headphones,
screwdrivers with miniature
built-in radar devices,
voice-activated computers...
Take it easy, Jeffrey.
Be calm.
JEFFREY: Right. That's right.
You're a very attractive woman.
[EXCLAIMS]
If you want to watch a particular
television program, like All My Children,
you can go to the charge nurse
and tell her the day,
the time the show you
wanna see is on.
But you have to tell her before
the show is scheduled to be on.
There was this guy and he was always
requesting shows that had already played.
Yes. No. You have
to tell her before.
He couldn't quite
grasp the idea
that the charge nurse
couldn't make it be yesterday.
She couldn't turn back time!
Thank you, Einstein.
Now he, he was nuts.
He was a fruitcake, Jim.
Okay, that's it, Jeffrey.
You're going to get a shot.
I warned you.
Right. Right, right, right.
I got a little carried away
explaining the inner workings
of the institution to Jim.
I don't really come
from outer space.
L.J. Washington. He doesn't
really come from outer space.
Don't mock me, my friend.
[LAUGHING]
[GROWLING]
Get outta my chair!
It's a condition of
mental divergence.
I find myself
on the planet Ogo.
Part of an intellectual elite
preparing to subjugate
the barbarian hordes on Pluto.
But even though this is a totally
convincing reality for me in every way,
nevertheless, Ogo is actually
a construct of my psyche.
I am mentally divergent
in that I am escaping
certain unnamed realities
that plague my life here.
When I stop going there,
I will be well.
Are you also divergent,
friend?
This is a place
for crazy people.
I'm not crazy.
We don't use that term,
"crazy," Mr. Cole.
You've got some
real nuts here!
I know some things
that you don't know.
It's gonna be very difficult
for you to understand it.
Hey! Hey, hey.
Hey, I'm not going
to hurt anyone.
All right.
Look,
have any of you heard of the
Army of the Twelve Monkeys?
They, they paint this.
They stencil this on the
sides of buildings everywhere.
Have you seen this?
Mr. Cole?
Have you seen this?
Why don't you take your time
and try to explain this
from the beginning?
Right, right. It's 1990.
Okay, that makes sense.
They wouldn't've been active yet.
[SHOUTS]
[SIGHS]
Five billion people died
in 1996 and 1997.
Almost the entire population
of the world.
Only about one percent
of us survived.
Are you going to save us?
How can I save you?
This already happened.
I can't save you. Nobody can.
I am simply trying
to gather information
to help the people in the
present trace the path of the virus.
We're not in the present
now, Mr. Cole? No.
happened. That's what I'm trying...
Mr. Cole? Mr. Cole?
You believe 1996 is the
present then, is that it?
No! 1996 is the past too.
Listen to me. What I...
What I...
What I need to do is
make a telephone call.
I can straighten this out
if I make a telephone call.
Who would you call? Who
would straighten everything out?
The scientists. They'll want to know
that they sent me to the wrong time.
I can leave a voice-mail message
that they monitor from the present.
Can I just make
one telephone call, please?
Please?
What are you doing in the
dog bowl? Get out of there!
[PHONE RINGING] Who put
those Doritos in there anyway?
Yes? What? Voice mail?
Look, I don't know...
Stop makin' that noise!
I don't know
what you're talkin' about.
Is this a joke?
I don't know any scientists.
Duanne, get out... James who?
[DIAL TONE]
Wasn't who you expected?
No. It was some lady.
She didn't know anything.
Well, maybe it was
the wrong number.
No. That's why they chose me.
I remember things.
James, where did you
grow up?
Dr. Rattly.
KATHRYN: I have the strangest
feeling I've met you before.
[CLEARS THROAT]
Wait, this is 1990.
I'm supposed to be
leaving messages in 1996!
It's not the right number yet!
That's the problem!
COLE:
We have a message for them.
No!
[g*nsh*t]
Won't work. You can't open it.
You think you can remove the
grill, but you can't. It's welded.
See? Told you.
All the doors are locked too.
They're protecting people
on the outside from us
when the people on the outside
are as crazy as us.
Do you know what "crazy" is?
Crazy is majority rules. Yeah.
Take germs for example.
Germs?
In the eighteenth century,
no such thing.
Nada. Nothing. No one
even imagined such a thing!
No sane person, anyway.
Along comes this doctor...
Semmelweis! Semmelweis.
Semmelweis comes along and
he's trying to convince people,
other doctors mainly,
that there are these teeny, tiny,
invisible bad things called germs
that get into your body
and make you sick.
He's trying to get doctors
to wash their hands.
What is this guy? Crazy?
Teeny, tiny, invisible, "what
do you call 'em? Germs? What?"
Now, cut to
the twentieth century.
Last week as a matter of fact, right
before I got dragged into this hellhole!
I go in to order a burger
in this fast-food joint.
The guy drops it on the floor.
Jim, he picks it up,
wipes it off.
He hands it to me
like it was all okay.
"What about germs?" I say. He
says, "I don't believe in germs.
"Germs are just a plot
they made up
"so they can sell you
disinfectants and soaps."
Now, he's crazy, right? See?
There's no right. There's no
wrong. There's only popular opinion.
You, you, you believe
in germs, right?
I'm not crazy.
Of course not! You want to
escape, right? That's very sane.
I can help you. You want
me to, don't ya? Get you out?
You know how to
get outta here?
[LAUGHING]
Yes, my son!
Then why don't ya?
Why don't I try to escape?
That's what you were gonna ask.
Good question. Very
good question. Intelligent.
Because I would be crazy to
escape. I have sent out word.
I am all taken care of.
What does that mean?
I've managed to contact
certain underlings, evil spirits,
secretaries of secretaries,
and other assorted minions
who will contact my father.
And when my father finds out
I'm in this kind of place,
he'll have them transfer me
to one of those classy joints,
where they treat you properly,
like a person, a guest!
With sheets and towels
like a big hotel,
with great drugs for all of us
nut-case, lunatic, maniac devils!
[ALL GROANING]
JEFFREY: Sorry. Sorry.
I got a little agitated.
The thought of escape crossed
my mind. And suddenly...
Suddenly, I felt like bending
the f*cking bars back!
And ripping out the g*dd*mn
window frames and eating them!
Yes, eating them!
And leaping, leaping, leaping!
Colonics for everyone!
All right! You dumb assholes,
I'm a mental patient.
I'm supposed to act out.
Wait till you morons find out who I
am! My father's gonna be really upset.
And when my father gets upset,
the ground shakes.
My father is God!
I worship my father!
NARRATOR ON TV: These
dramatic videotapes, secretly obtained
by animal-rights activists,
have aroused public indignation.
But many scientists
vehemently disagree.

We're all monkeys.
They hurt you?
Not as bad as what they're
doing to the Easter Bunny.
[JEFFREY CHUCKLING]
COLE: Look at them.
They're just askin' for it.
NARRATOR:
Animals inside the lab...
Maybe the human race
deserves to be wiped out.
Wiping out the human race?
It's a great idea! It's great!
But more of a long-term thing.
First we have to focus
on more immediate goals.
I didn't say a word
about you-know-what.
What are you talking about?
Your plan. Emancipation!
What are you writing?
You a reporter? It's private.
A lawsuit?
It's private.
You gonna sue 'em?
Yo, Jimbo. Time for your meds.

Get it? Monkey. Monk key.
Monk key.
What?
Shh.
TV ANNOUNCER: if you see a
bearish future in the decade ahead,
consider the changes sweeping the
world and the opportunities they offer.
"And the opportunities
they offer."
They really dosed you. Jim!
JEFFREY: Major load.
Danger, Will Robinson, danger.
You got to get it together.
Focus, focus, focus.
Remember the plan.
I did my part!
What?
Shh.
Not "what," when.
When?
Yes. When.
Now! Now, Jim! Now!
Yes! Now! Buy! Sell!
Stocks! Bonds!
Purchase! Sell! Yes!
No more monkey business! No
more monkey business!
I am getting dizzy.
JEFFREY: Yes, enhance
your portfolio now.
Five hundred dollars.
I got $500. I'm insured!
Yeah! Window of opportunity
is opening now.
Now is the time for all good men
to seize the moment. The moment!
Now is the time for all
good men to seize the day!
WARDEN: God damn it, Jeffrey!
Quit playin' the fool!

Kathryn, this was in my box!
But I have a slight suspicion
it wasn't meant for me.

woman I have ever sin.
"You live in a bootiful world,

"You have freedom, sunshine,

"I would do anything to
stay her, but I must leave.
"Please help me."
Okay, okay, okay.
Poor man.
Hey, Kathryn?
James Cole is
one of yours, right?
He eloped. Last seen,
he was up on two.
sh*t!
[ALARM RINGING]
We have to know exactly
what's there so we can fix it.
Doctor, we have a visitor.
DOCTOR: May I help you?
Excuse me?
May I help you?
Excuse me?
Excuse me?
Jim? Jim?
Hey, Jimbo.
What's up, man?
Hey, Jimbo.
All right, it's okay.
Take it easy.
It'll be all right.
Take care. Take it easy.
We'll work this out, okay?
Send you back to your room.
A little milk and cookies,
you'll be all right.
Just take it easy, okay?
[GRUNTING]
Come on, calm down!
Take him down!
Take him the f*ck down!
[SCREAMING]
I'm not gonna hurt anyone.
Dr. Rattly, help me please.
We're gonna give you something
to calm you, James.
No! No more drugs!
James, we have to do this.
You're very confused.
No drugs! Stop it!
[GRUNTING]
Kathryn, we've been working
together for four years.
I've never seen you like this.
So please stop being so
defensive. This isn't an inquisition.
I didn't think
I was being defensive.
I was trying to
explain exactly what...
He should've been
in restraints.
It was bad judgment on your part,
plain and simple. Why not own up to it?
Okay, it was bad judgment. But I
have the strangest feeling about him.
I've seen him someplace.
And I'm...
Two policemen are
already in the hospital.
Now we've got a security guard
with a skull fracture.
I said it was bad judgment!
What else do you want me to say?
You see that? See what I mean?
You're being defensive.
Isn't she being defensive?
Dr. Fletcher?
What?
We have another situation.
He was fully restrained
and the door was locked?
Yes, sir. I did it myself.
And he was fully sedated?
He was fully sedated.
Then, are you trying to tell me a
fully sedated, fully restrained patient
somehow slipped out that vent,
replaced the grill behind him
and is wriggling his way
through the ventilation system?
[BEEPING NOISE]
Watch it!
MAN WITH RASPY VOICE:
You sure f*cked up!
Where are you?
You can talk!
What'd you do, Bobby boy,
volunteer?
My name's not Bob.
Not a prob, Bob.
Where'd they send you?
Where are you?
Another cell.
Maybe.
What do you mean "maybe"?
What's that supposed to mean?
Maybe means
maybe I'm in the next cell.
Another volunteer like you.
Or maybe
I'm in the Central Office
spying on ya for
all those science bozos.
Or hey, maybe
I'm not even here.
Maybe I'm just in your head.
No way to confirm anything.
[CACKLES]
Where did they send you?
'90! How was it?
Good drugs? Lots of p*ssy?
Hey, Bob, you do the job?
Did you find out the big info?
Army of the Twelve Monkeys?
It was supposed to be 1996.
Science ain't an exact science
with these clowns.
But they're getting better.
You're lucky you didn't
end up in Ancient Egypt.
Shh.
They're comin'.
[KATHRYN'S VOICE: DISTORTED] The Freedom
for Animals Association on Second Avenue
is the secret headquarters of
the Army of the Twelve Monkeys.
They are the ones
who are going to do it.
I can't do any more.
I have to go now.
Have a merry Christmas.
ASTROPHYSICIST: Well?
What?
Did you or did you not
record that message?
MICROBIOLOGIST: It's a
reconstruction of a deteriorated recording.
BOTANIST: Weak signal.
We have to put them together
one word at a time.
ASTROPHYSICIST: We
just finished rebuilding this.
Did you or did you not
make this call?
I couldn't make any call.
You sent me to the
wrong year. It was 1990.
You're certain of that?
What did you do
with your time, Cole?
Did you waste it
on drugs? Women?
They forced me to take drugs.
Forced you? Why would someone
force you to take drugs?
I was in trouble.
I got arrested.
I...
I did what you wanted.
I got a specimen, a spider.
I didn't have anyplace
to put it, so I ate it.
But you sent me to the wrong
year, so it really doesn't matter.
ZOOLOGIST: Did you see this
when you went back?
No, sir, I don't think so.
ASTROPHYSICIST: What about
these people? Did you see any of these?
No.
No.
Oh, wait, wait.
Him?
You saw that man?
Maybe in the... Maybe
in the mental institution.
MICROBIOLOGIST: You
were in a mental institution?
Oh, God!
ASTROPHYSICIST: Cole, you were sent back
to make some very important observations.
BOTANIST: You could've
made a real contribution.
GEOLOGIST: Helped us
to reclaim the planet.
ZOOLOGIST: As well as
reducing your sentence.
The question is, Cole,
do you want another chance?
[INDISTINCT CHATTING]
Good.
Last connection going on.
Stand clear.
He was your choice. Nothing
we can do about that now.
[WHISTLE BLOWS]
GEOLOGIST:
No mistakes this time, Cole.
Stay alert.
Keep your eyes open.
Good thinking
about the spider.
Try and do something
like that again.
Just relax now.
Don't fight it.
MICROBIOLOGIST: We're sending you to the
third quarter of 1996. Right on the money.

full of the wrath of God
"who liveth
for ever and ever."
Revelations.
In the fourteenth century, according to the
accounts of local officials of that time,
this man appeared suddenly in
the village of Wyle near Stonehenge
in April of 1362.
Using unfamiliar words and
speaking in a strange accent,
the man made dire
prognostications about a pestilence
which he said would wipe out
humanity in approximately 600 years.
Obviously, this plague-doomsday
scenario is more compelling
when reality supports it
with a virulent disease,
whether it's the bubonic
plague, smallpox or A*DS.
Now we have technological
horrors, such as chemical warfare,
which first reared
its ugly head
during the deadly mustard
gas attacks of World w*r I.
During such an attack in the
French trenches in October of 1917,
we have an account
of this soldier,
who, during an as*ault,
was wounded by shrapnel
and hospitalized, apparently
in a state of hysteria.
Doctors found that he had lost
all comprehension of French,
but that he spoke
English fluently,
albeit in a regional dialect
they didn't recognize.
The man, though physically
unaffected by the gas,
was beside himself.
He claimed that he had
come from the future,
that he was looking
for a pure germ
that would ultimately wipe
mankind off the face of the earth
starting in the year 1996.
[AUDIENCE CHUCKLING]
Though injured, the young soldier
disappeared from the hospital,
no doubt trying to carry on
his mission to warn others,
and substituting
for the agony of w*r,
a self-inflicted agony, we
call the "Cassandra Complex."
Cassandra in Greek legend was
condemned to know the future,
but to be disbelieved
when she foretold it,
hence, the agony
of foreknowledge
combined with the impotence
to do anything about it.
[CHATTING, LAUGHING]
I'm going right out
to get vaccinated.
KATHRYN: Hi.
I think, Dr. Rattly, you've
given the alarmists a bad name.
I have?
Surely there is very real
and very convincing data
that the planet cannot survive
the excesses of the human race.
This is true.
Proliferation of atomic devices,
uncontrolled breeding habits,
pollution of land, sea and air,
the r*pe of the environment.
In this context, isn't it obvious that
Chicken Little represents the sane vision?
And that h*m* sapiens' motto,
"Let's go shopping,"
is the cry of
the true lunatic?
Kathryn, it's time.
My name is Troy.
Please. Dr. Rattly, I wonder if
you're aware of my own studies.
MAN: See you
at work tomorrow.
WOMAN:

I have got a g*n.

[COUGHING]
All right, drive.
Take my purse. I've got a
lot of cash and credit cards.
Take my keys!
Start the car!
No!
Here, turn right.
Turn right here!
[COUGHING]
Wh-Where are we going?
Philadelphia.
That's more than
a hundred miles!
That's why
I can't walk there.
Just let me go.
[COUGHING] Just drive!
You can take the car.
I don't know how to drive.
I went underground
when I was eight years old.
I told you that before.
[COUGHING] At the next corner,
turn right.
Cole. James Cole.
You escaped from
a locked room six years ago.
[CARS HONKING]
Six years for you.
Turn around, get goin'!
Okay.
I can't believe that this is
a coincidence, Mr. Cole.
Have you been following me?
You said you would help me. I
know this isn't what you meant,
but I don't have any money.
I hurt my leg. And I've
been sleeping on the street.
I'm sure I smell bad.
Do you have any food
in this car?
You have been following me,
haven't you?
No.
No, I saw this
in a store window.
I can read, remember?
Yeah.
Why do you want to
go to Philadelphia?
I checked out the Baltimore
information. It was nothing.
It's in Philadelphia. That's where
they are, the ones who did it.
The Twelve Monkeys.
Is that a radio?
Yeah.
Can you turn it on?

I've never seen the ocean.
It's an advertisement,
Mr. Cole.
What is?
It's an advertisement.
You do understand that?
It's not really
a special message to you.
Mr. Cole.
You used to call me James.
You prefer that?
James, you don't

MAN ON RADIO: WXBX news break.
News as it happens. Roger Pratt reporting.
A story breaking with us now
is emergency crews are converging
on a cornfield where playmates
of nine-year-old Ricky Neuman say they
saw him disappear right before their eyes.
Young Neuman apparently
stepped into an abandoned well shaft,
and is lodged somewhere
in the narrow 150-foot pipe.
Possibly alive,
possibly seriously injured,
playmates claim they heard
him cry out faintly.
Never cry wolf.
What?
My father said that to me.
He said, "Never cry wolf."
'Cause then people won't believe
you if something really happens.
If something really happens
like what, James?
Something bad.
Can we have some more music?
I don't wanna hear this stuff.
Can we hear more music?
[MAN SINGING]

Oh, that's good.

Do you remember James Cole? The
paranoid who pulled the Houdini in '90?
Well, he's back and...
[WOMAN WHISPERING]
Sorry about that. He's looking for
you. I thought you ought to know.
All right, take care.
It's just like I told you.
Me and my husband went ahead

That is totally unlike her.
Do you know

[BLOWS]
You were in my dream
just now.
Your hair's different.
Different color.
I'm sure it was you.
What was the dream about?
About an airport
before everything happened.
It's the same dream I always
have. When I was a kid.
KATHRYN: And I was in it?
What did I do?
[SIGHS]
You were very upset.
You're always very upset
in the dream.
Just never knew it was you.
It wasn't me before, James.
It's become me now
because of what's happening.
Could you please untie me?
No, I think it was always you.
Very strange.
KATHRYN: You're flushed,
and you were moaning.
I think
you're running a fever.
What are you doing?
[WHIMPERING, GRUNTING]
In Fresno, California,
crews continue to attempt to
rescue nine-year-old Ricky Neuman.
And closer to home,
in Baltimore, Kathryn Rattly,
prominent psychiatrist and the author
of a newly released book on insanity,
disappeared mysteriously last
night after a lecture at the university.
Former mental patient, James
Cole, is wanted for questioning
regarding Dr. Railly's
disappearance.
Authorities warn that Cole
has a history of violence,
and advise anyone spotting him
to notify authorities at once.
[ROCK MUSIC PLAYING ON RADIO]
Love this music.
We don't have this. We
don't have anything like this.
What are all those?
These?
My notes. Clues.
What kind of clues?
It's about the secret army. The
Army of the Twelve Monkeys.
They're the ones that spread
the virus. That's why I'm here.
I have to find them.
That's my mission.
I just have to locate them because
they have the virus in its pure form
before it mutates.
When I locate them,
they'll send a scientist here.
That scientist will
study the virus.
Then when he goes back
to the present,
he and the rest of the
scientists will make a cure.
MAN ON RADIO: ...police
officers from three jurisdictions,
including special
tactical unit personnel,
have now been mobilized to control
the growing thousands of onlookers
in Fresno, California...
Does that disturb you?
No.
I thought it was about us.
I thought maybe they'd
captured us and arrested me.
Just a joke.
I remember being very afraid
for that little boy.
All alone, down that well, not
knowing if anybody's gonna get him out.
The first time I was ever
really afraid when I was a kid.
What do you mean,
when you were a kid?
Never mind. Just a prank, a
hoax. That boy's hiding in a barn.

Marks? Marks?
Do you think that...

[TAPE RECORDER: LION ROARING]
It's just a tape.
I'm looking for the Army

[ANIMAL NOISES CONTINUE]
We don't know anything about
any Army of the Twelve Monkeys.
So you and your friend
just disappear.
I just want some information.
Didn't you hear me. I sa...
KATHRYN: Don't hurt her.
Please, I'm a psychiatrist. Just
do whatever he tells you to do.
He's disturbed.
He's dangerous.
Please, just cooperate.
What do you want, money?
We only got a few bucks.
COLE:I told you what I want.
Get down. Lock that door!
KATHRYN: James, don't...
Lock it now!
I told you that f*ck
Goines would get us...
Shut up!
Goines?
Jeffrey Goines?
Then Jeffrey becomes a big star,
and the media latch onto him because
he's picketing his own father, a
famous Nobel Prize-winning virologist.
You must've seen
all that on TV.
I don't watch TV.
Is this him?
FALE: Yeah, that's him.
That's him.
What are you going to
do to us?
Tell me more about Jeffrey.
Jeffrey started getting
bored with the sh*t we do.
Picketing, leafleting,
letter-writing stuff.
He said we were ineffectual,
liberal jerkoffs.
He wanted to do guerrilla actions
in order to educate the public.
Like this?
Yeah. That's when he let 100
snakes loose in the Senate.
TEDDY:But we weren't into
that kind of stuff.
It's counterproductive.
We told him.
FALE: So he and 11 guys,
they split off and formed
this underground army.
The Army of
the Twelve Monkeys.
See?
They started planning
a "Human Hunt."
TEDDY: They bought stun g*ns,
nets and bear traps.
They were gonna go to Wall Street
and trap lawyers and bankers...
They didn't do it, of course.
They didn't do any of it.
Like always, Mr. Big Shot
sold his friends out.
What does that mean?
He goes on TV and gives a news
conference. Tells the whole world
he just realized his daddy's
experiments are vital for humanity
and that the use of animals
is absolutely necessary.
And that from now on he, Jeffrey Goines,
is going to personally supervise the labs
to make sure the little
animals aren't going to suffer.
What is this?
KATHRYN: People like that
aren't accessible.
You can't just barge in on
them. It's not how the world works.
Be quiet and drive the car.
I know what I'm doing.
No, you don't.
This car is stolen.
And we are in big trouble.
Big trouble.
If you don't turn yourself
over they're going to k*ll you.
They're going to sh**t me too, 'cause
I'm going to be the accessory to m*rder.
You're all going to die.
Nobody is going to die.
You're not going to
save the world.
Okay? You're delusional.
You've made all this up out
of bits and pieces in your head.
No.
Yes.
Let me give you an example.
You know Jeffrey Goines. You
were both patients at County Hospital.
Jeffrey Goines
was a fruitcake.
[MIMICKING JEFFREY]
He told you then
his father was a famous
scientist who worked with viruses.
You've incorporated that bit of
information to this c*ck fantasy.
He didn't say his father was a
scientist. He said his father was God.
This is insane.
MAN ON RADIO: ...prominent psychiatrist

What is the matter
with your leg?
I got shot.
Shot! Who shot you?
I don't know. It was some
kind of w*r. Never mind.
You wouldn't

COLE: What are you doing?
We don't need gas.
I thought you didn't
know how to drive.
I said I was too young to

This can't go on. If you have a b*llet

You smell so good.
You have to give yourself up.
You know that, don't you?
What are you doing? James?
I'm sorry.
What are you doing?
James, stop it!
What are you doing?
Let go of me!
I have to do this.
They find him?
Who?
That kid.
The one in the pipe.
You believe that? They're
lowering a monkey down there
and a miniature infrared
camera strapped on him,
and a roast beef sandwich
wrapped up in tinfoil.
You're making it up. No, I
sh*t you not. Life is really weird.
A monkey

Hello. Very attractive.

Watch it!
Huh? County Hospital?
Am I right?
I can't do anything about
what you're going to do.
I can't change anything.
I can't stop you.
I just want the information.
We need to talk. C'mon.
Hi, ladies.
Nice to see you again.
Watch your step
on the way down.
Who blabbed?
Bruhns? Weller?
I just want access to
the pure virus. Virus?
For the future. I need to know
where it is and exactly what it is.
I get it. I see what you're up
to. It's your old plan, isn't it?
What plan?
Your plan. Remember?
I don't know
what you're talking about.
Yes, you do. We were in the
day room, watching television
and you were upset about the desecration
of the planet, which I understand.
Then you said to me,
"Wouldn't it be great
if there was a germ or virus
"that would wipe out all of mankind
and leave the animals and trees?"
You're trying to confuse
me. You were so funny.
I told you my father
was this famous virologist.
And you said, "He could make
a germ and we could steal it."
Coo-coo-ka-roo,
you were.
They mutate!
We live underground!
The world belongs
to the dogs and cats.
We live like worms.
I just need the information.
Take it easy.
You are a total nut-case! Completely
deranged! Delusional, paranoid.
Your processor
is all f*cked up.
Your information tray
is jammed, man!
Do you know what it is, the
Army of the Twelve Monkeys?
A collection of space-case
do-gooders saving rain forests.
I have nothing to do
with those bozos.
I quit being the rich kid fall guy
for a bunch of ineffective fanatics!
So much for your
grand plot, as*h*le!
Father's been warning people
about the dangers of experimentation
with D.N.A. viruses for years.
You've processed
that information
through your addled,
paranoid infrastructure.
Lo and behold,
a nonprofit organization
becomes some sinister,
revolutionary cabal!
This man is complete bat sh*t!
Ladies and gentlemen, do you
realize where he thinks he comes from?
ANNOUNCER: Captain Dan Miller, the
man in charge of the rescue operation,
says he has consulted with
experts, and they assure us...
If you ask me, the monkey's going
to eat that g*dd*mn sandwich himself.
Did a man just come
running through here?
...saying his primary responsibility
was to the missing boy.
Police say that the body of a woman
found strangled in Knutson State Park
could be kidnapping victim
Dr. Kathryn Rattly.
Anybody see someone
come through here?
...discovered less than
an hour ago by hikers.
But we have an unconfirmed
report that the victim,
a woman in her late twenties or
early thirties, was savagely mutilated.
Earlier in the day, police
located Railly's abandoned car.
It was found not far...
[SCREAMS]
Any sign of him?
Nothing.
He can't just disappear.
[PANTING]
You b*stard!
I could've died in there!
You son of a b*tch!
[CRYING]
What were you thinking of,
you twisted sack of sh*t?
COLE: I'm sorry. Sorry
I locked you in the trunk.
[KATHRYN CRYING]
I'm sick of you!
What have you done?
Did you k*ll somebody?
Yes.
A million people.
Five billion people.
What?
Jeffrey Goines said it was
my idea about the virus.
We were in the institution. It was
all so fuzzy and the drugs and all.
Do you think it was my idea?
Do you think maybe
I've wiped out the human race?
Nobody is gonna wipe out
the human race.
Not you or Jeffrey
or anybody else.
You've created something
in your mind. A... Oh.
Mentally divergent?
A... Whatever!
A substitute reality,
because you don't want to
deal with anything.
[LAUGHS]
I would love
it if that was true.
It can be dealt with, but only
if you want to. I can help you.
[MEN YELLING]
They're after me.
We have to get outta here.
Who is after you?
I think there were
some policemen at that party.
Party? You went to a par...
Never mind.
It's important you surrender
instead of their catching you running.
Wouldn't it be great
if I was crazy?
The world would be okay. I
wouldn't have to live underground.
Gimme the g*n.
I lost the g*n.
Where is the g*n?
I could live right here.
You got water, air, stars.
I'm gonna attract
their attention... Debris.
...so they know where we are.
[HORN HONKING]
[LAUGHING]
Oh, I love this world!
They're gonna tell you to put your
hands on your head. Do what they say.
I love the frogs, the spiders.
Remember, I'll be with you.
I'll help you. I won't let them...
[DOGS BARKING]
Then I said something about cooperating,
and he said he would do that. So, I...
I got in the car.
Thanks. And when I...
I started honking the horn.
Then when I got out, he was gone.
I'll tell you somethin'.
You lucked out.
For a while, we thought you were a
body they found down state, mutilated.
He wouldn't do that.
This the man he attacked?
I wanna be clear
about this, okay?
This man and the other one
were severely beating us.
James Cole didn't start it.
In fact, he saved me.
[CHUCKLES]
Funny thing, Doctor. Maybe
you can help explain it to me,
you being
a psychiatrist and all.
Why is it that kidnap victims
always try to tell us about
the guys who grabbed 'em?
And they try to
make us understand
how kind these b*stards
really were?
It's a normal reaction to
a life-threatening situation.
He's sick. Okay?
He thinks he comes
from the future.
He lives in a meticulously
constructed fantasy world,
and that world is starting to
disintegrate. He needs help.
Okay.
REPORTER: Exhausted but apparently
unharmed by her thirty-hour ordeal,
Dr. Rattly returned to Baltimore this
morning without making a public statement.
The author and psychiatrist is
currently in seclusion at her home.
Meantime, police have pieced
together a scenario of the series of events
that began with escaped
mental patient James Cole...
Sorry.
No, it's okay. I'm just
hyperalert. I can't sleep.
Did you take your sedative?
I hate those things.
They mess my head up.

a rampage of violence.
With the kidnapping
of the Baltimore woman,
James Cole is now also
wanted in connection with
the brutal slaying of Rodney
Wiggins, an ex-convict from Ardmore.
[SIREN WAILING] His body was
discovered in an abandoned theater
not far from where Cole left three
animal rights activists bound and gagged
in their Second Avenue
headquarters.
Do they really believe he's
going to show up here? Please.
And in Fresno, California, the cornfield
that was jammed with spectators...
He's dead, isn't he,
that little boy?
He's fine. It was just a prank
he and his friends pulled.
The dramatic attempt to rescue Ricky
Neuman from an abandoned mineshaft
ended abruptly
when playmates confessed
that Neuman's disappearance
was merely a prank.
And that, in fact, the missing
child was hiding in a nearby barn.

of the Twelve Monkeys
with a famous virologist
and his son.
Others will take over now.
We'll be back
on service in months.
We'll retake the planet.
This is it, James.
What you've been working for.
A full pardon.
You'll be out of here
in no time.
Women will want to know you.
I don't want your women!
I want to get well!
And you will be well, James.
Soon.
[LAUGHING]
You know, you people
don't exist. You're not real.
We can't travel back in time.
Whoop! Whoop! Uh-uh.
You're not here.
You can't trick me.
[LAUGHING]
You're in my mind.
[LAUGHING]
[SIGHING]
I am insane.
And you are my insanity.
[LAUGHING]
He not only used the word "prank,"
he said the boy was hiding in a barn.
Kathryn, Kathryn.
He kidnapped you.
You saw him m*rder somebody,
and you knew there was a real
possibility that he could k*ll you too.
You're under tremendous
emotional stress.
For God's sake, Owen,
listen to me.
He knew about the boy
in Fresno, and he says
five billion people
are gonna die.
No way he could
possibly know that!
Kathryn!
You're a rational person.
You're a trained psychiatrist.
You know the difference
between what's real and what's not.
What we say is the truth, is
what everybody accepts. Right?
Psychiatry,
it's the latest religion.
We decide what's right and
wrong. We decide who's crazy or not.
I'm in trouble here.
I'm losing my faith.
MAN WITH RASPY VOICE:
You sure f*cked up, Bob.
But I can understand.
You don't want your mistakes
pointed out to you.
I can relate to that, old Bob.
Hey, I know
what you're thinkin'.
You're thinkin' I don't exist
except in your head.
I see that point of view.
But you could still talk
to me, couldn't ya?
I saw you in 1996
in the real world.
You pulled out your teeth.
Why would I pull out my teeth?
That's a no-no.
And when did you
say you saw me?
In 1872?
Leave me alone!
Yellin' won't get you
what you want.
You have to be smart
to get what you want.
And what do I want?
You don't know what you want?
Sure you do, Bob.
You know what you want.
You tell me.
You tell me what I want.
To see the sky and the ocean.
To be topside.
Breathe the air.
To be with her.
Isn't that right?
Isn't that what you want?
Bob?
[MOANING]
[RINGING]
Hello.
Dr. Rattly, Jim Halperin, Philly P.D.
Sorry to call you so early this mornin'.
You found him?
Is he okay?
No, no, au contraire, Doctor.
No sign of your good friend,
the kidnapper.
However, the plot
does thicken.
I've got a ballistics
report on my desk.
It says the b*llet you claim you
removed from Mr. Cole's thigh
is, in fact, an antique.
HALPERIN: And all indications are it
was fired sometime prior to the 1920s.
How 'bout I take
a spin down there?
This can't be.
Maybe we can grab
a bite to eat.
Maybe you could revise
or amplify your statement.
Dr. Rattly?
No!
You can't trick us, you know.
It wouldn't work.
COLE: No, sir.
You haven't become addicted,
have you, Cole, to that dying world?
No, sir.
I just want to do my part
to get us back on top,
in charge of the planet.
And I have the experience.
I know the people involved.
He really is
the most qualified.
But all of that behavior.
You said we weren't real,
Cole.
I don't think the human mind
is meant to exist
in two different,
whatever you called it,
dimensions?
It's just too stressful.
You said that yourself.
It's very confusing, you don't
know what's real and what's not.
MICROBIOLOGIST:
But you know what's real now.
Yes, sir. I do.
DR. GOINES: No, no.
I don't know anything about
a monkey army, Doctor.
No, no. Nothing whatsoever.
Good Lord, if my son was ever
involved in something like that...
[MICE SQUEAKING]
Well, I'm sorry. I think it is
doubly inappropriate to discuss
security matters
with you, Dr. Rattly.
But if it will ease your mind,
rest assured that
neither my son
nor any other unauthorized
person has access
to potentially dangerous
organisms in my laboratory.
Is that clear to you now? Thank
you so much for your concern.
[WHISPERING]
Women psychiatrists!
I attended a lecture
of hers once.
"Apocalyptic Visions."
Yes. She was
suddenly struck by
the most preposterous notion
about Jeffrey.
Has she succumbed to her own
"theoretical"
Cassandra disease?
Maybe we ought to review
our security procedures.
Yeah. Perhaps upgrade 'em,
you know?
Beef them up?
BOTANIST: Let's consider again
our current information.
If the symptoms were
first detected in Philadelphia
on December 27, 1996,
that makes us know that...
It was released in Philadelphia
probably on December 13, 1996.
And was seen
sequentially after that in...
San Francisco, New Orleans,
Rio de Janeiro,
Rome, Kinshasa,
Karachi, Bangkok, then Peking.
That was very well done, Cole.
KATHRYN: Hello!
Is somebody in there? If you're
in there, I have to talk to you.
It's the kidnap woman.
Hello?
The one who was with the guy
who tied us up.
Turn off the lights.
Turn off the light!
What's she doin'? She's
drawing attention to us, that's what.
I don't know what you're
up to this time, Goines,
but you're going to
get us in deep sh*t.
Walkies ready,
batteries charged?
I saw you! I saw somebody
in there! Come on.
Secret experiments.
That's what they do.
Secret weird stuff.
Not just on animals.
I know you.
They do 'em on
people too down at...
Have you seen James Cole?
The man who...
They're watching you.
Takin' pictures.
The police. I know. Look.
[GASPING]
I have to contact James.
It's very, very important that he's
really careful when he reaches me.
Do you understand that?
Yeah. Yeah.
Good.
Who's James?
He was with me.
He spoke to you
several weeks ago.
He said that you were from the
future and that you were watching him.
Bolt cutters. Bolt cutters.
Did you get the bolt cutters?
One dozen.
They're in the van.
Got the plans
for the security system?
Right here.
Committed to memory.
Hey! Hey! You know
what she's doing out there?
What's it say? I don't
know. I can't see it.
Forget about my psychiatrist and
concentrate on the task at hand.
Your psychiatrist?
Did you just say
your psychiatrist?
Ex-psychiatrist.
This woman was your psychiatrist and
now she's spray-painting our building?
MAN: What's it say?
COLE: Kathryn!
James?
James.
What? What?
There's a policemen over
there. Pretend you don't know me.
No. I want to turn myself in.
Where is he?
James!
Where is he?
Down! Come on.
No, no. It's okay.
I'm not crazy anymore.
I mean, I am.
I'm mentally divergent.
I know that now.
I want you to help me.
I want to get better.
James!
Let's get outta here!
He's goin'. He's goin'.
[HORN HONKING]
[TIRES SCREECHING]
[HORN HONKING]
I've see that before.
No, James, you haven't.
A guy in a Ford is chasing her
and some other guy I can't see.
No problem. It's probably
just another kidnapping
featuring Jeffrey's shrink.
Pardon me. Make that ex-shrink.
This is your leader?
A certifiable lunatic who
told his former psychiatrist
all his plans for God knows what
whacko irresponsible schemes?
God knows what she's written
on that wall.
Who cares what psychiatrists
write on walls?
You think I told her about the
Army of the Twelve Monkeys, huh?
Impossible!
Do you know why?
Do you know why?
Because,
you pathetically ineffectual
and pusillanimous pretend
friend to animals, I'll tell you why.
When I had anything to
do with her six years ago,
there was no such thing,
I hadn't thought of it yet.
Then how come she knows
what's goin' on?
Here's my theory on that.
When I was institutionalized,
my brain was studied exhaustively
in the guise of mental health.
I was interrogated, x-rayed.
I was examined thoroughly.
[COUGHS]
They took everything about me
and put it into a computer
where they created this model
of my mind. Yes!
Using that model,
they managed to generate
every thought I could possibly
have in the next ten years,
which they then filtered through
a probability matrix of some kind
to determine everything
I was gonna do in that period.
So you see, she knew
I was gonna lead
the Army of the Twelve Monkeys
into history
before it even occurred to me.
She knows everything I'm ever
gonna do before I know it myself.
How's that?
Kweskin, you finish here.
I'll meet you there.
And if you forget one thing, I will have
you shaved, sterilized and destroyed.
KWESKIN: Jeff?
What?
You are a great man.
f*ck the bozos!
[CHUCKLES]
He's seriously crazy.
You know that.
[INDISTINCT RADIO CHATTER]
There. Over there.
Okay. Come on.
[TV CHATTERING]
I need a room.
Thirty-five bucks an hour.
An hour?
You want quarter hours?
Go someplace else.
[WOMAN GIGGLING]
[COUGHING]
Here's
twenty-five, six,
seven for an hour. Deal?
MAN: Hey! Turn it off!
One hour, honey-babe.
Number sixty-four.
Sixth floor. Up the stairs,
end of the hall.
Elevator's busted.
She's not honey-babe.
She's a doctor.
My psychiatrist.
Understand?
Whatever gets it up
for you, Jack.
Tommy, this is Charlie
over at the Globe.
[CHUCKLES]
You know if Wallace
has a new girl?
Sort of a rookie type?
A little weird?
Does fantasy acts?
Okay, you were standing there
looking up at the moon.
You were splashing through
the water, and then what?
I thought I was in
prison again.
Just like that,
you were in prison?
No, not really.
Like you said.
It was all in my mind.
[STAMMERING]
You disappeared.
One minute you were there,
the next minute you were gone.
Did you run through
the woods, or...
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.
You said he was
hiding in the barn!
I think I maybe saw a TV show
about that when I was a kid,
where a boy... It wasn't
a TV show! It was real!
Maybe this boy saw the same
TV show that I did, and he copied it.
Look, you were right.
I am mentally ill.
I imagined all these things,
these people.
I know they're not real.
I can trick them. I...
I can make them do
what I want.
I worked on 'em a little bit.
I got back here to get better.
I can stay here.
What does this mean to you?
I think I had a dream like...
About this.
[STAMMERING]
You had a b*llet from World w*r I in
your leg, James. How did it get there?
I don't know. Look,
you said I had delusions.
That I created this world.
You said you could explain...
I can't!
I'm trying to, and...
I can't believe everything we
say or do has already happened.
We can't change
what's going to happen.
And if five billion people
are going to die, it's...
I want the future
to be unknown.
I want to become
a whole person again.
I want this to be the present.
I want to stay here,
this time
with you.
James,
do you remember six years ago
you had a phone number?
It was the wrong number then.
A woman answered.
It was the wrong number
in 1990.
It should be
the right number now.
Do you remember it?
The number? Do you...
[BANGING]
This is my territory, b*tch!
Is this real, or is it one of my
delusions? This is definitely real.
KATHRYN: Excuse me. I think
we've got a little misunderstanding here.
Oh?
Yeah. We...
Gee, really?
Now, you just sit tight!
Now you listen to me,
little Miss Understanding.
You think you can go around me
and peddle your a*s in this part of town?
You bet your life we got what I would
call a major f*ck' misunderstanding.
Hey!
James, no! Don't!
Put him in the closet.
Take his money first!
You want me to rob him?
We need cash, James!
WALLACE: No, no!
Call the cops! Call the cops!
MAN: What's goin' on?
WALLACE: I've got friends,
man! Don't f*ck' k*ll me.
James. James! No, James! No!
No! James!
No! Open the door!
What the f*ck are you doin'?
Please don't hurt him.
Open the door.
James, come on.
[GASPS]
[PANTING]
Just in case.
Just in case I'm not crazy.
This is how they find us.
By our teeth.
I don't want them
to find me, ever.
I don't want to go back.
POLICE RADIO: ...calling in
a domestic incident.
POLICEMAN: Get out!
Get back.
You'd better load.
Police! Throw your
weapons out and come on out!
WALLACE: Hey!
Is that the cops?
Hey, I'm
the innocent victim here!
I was attacked
by a coked-up wh*re
and a f*ck' crazy dentist.
Try to blend in.
Oh. Jesus!
Come on!
There's gotta be a phone
around here somewhere.
There. Over there. Look.
I'm going to try that
number, okay? Okay.
Let's hope it's nothing.
Okay.
[LOUD ROARING]
[GASPS]
James! James!
It's okay! We're insane.
We're crazy. It's a
carpet cleaning company.
A carpet cleaning company?
Yeah. No superiors. No
scientists. No men from the future.
Just a carpet cleaning
company. They have voice mail.
You leave a message telling
where you want your carpet cleaned.
You left them a message?
Yeah. I couldn't resist.
Wait 'til they hear
this nutty woman telling them
to watch out for the Army
of the Twelve Monkeys.
I said, "The Freedom for Animals
Association on Second Avenue...
"...is the secret headquarters of
the Army of the Twelve Monkeys.
"They're the ones
who are going to do it.
"I can't do anything
more now. I have to go.
"Have a merry Christmas."
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.
[POLICE RADIO INDISTINCT]

No. That'll be cash.
Can you tell me

You know Fale.
If you guys get nailed,

Right?

Okay. Okay.
Hello. Hello.
Wanna hear the monkey speak?
ALL: Yeah!
Aah!
Jeffrey? Jeffrey, I know that's
you. I recognize your voice.
[IN DISGUISED VOICE]
No, you don't.
I also know all about
your warped little plan.
That lady, your psychiatrist?
She told me.
I didn't believe her. It just
seemed too crazy, even for you.
But just in case, I took steps to make
sure that you couldn't go through with it.
I don't have the code
anymore, Jeffrey.
I don't have access
to the virus.
I took myself out of the loop.
Too late! Too late!
We've got plans for you, Dad.
[MAKES MONKEY SOUNDS]
[ALL MAKING MONKEY SOUNDS]
I never let myself believe it.
Now I know it's true. Jeffrey?
You're completely insane.
[ACTIVISTS LAUGHING]
No, I'm not.
There's a cross section of one of
the old trees that's been cut down.
Here I was born.
And there I die.
It was only a moment for you.
You took no notice.
I think I've seen
this movie before.
Shh.
When I was a kid,
I saw it on TV.
Don't talk.
I did see it before.
Tall tress...
Have you been here before?
Yes.
When?
When were you born?
I recognize this.
Long ago.
Where?
KATHRYN: What's the matter?
Tell me, Madeleine, tell me.
No!
That's just like what's
happening with us. Like the past.
The movie never changes.
It can't change.
But every time you see it, it seems
different because you're different.
You see different things.
Please don't ask me.
If you can't change anything,
because it's already happened,
you may as well
smell the flowers.
What flowers?
That's an expression.
MADELEINE: Promise me
you won't ask me again, please.
Kathryn,
why are you doing this?
I want to know why. What if
I'm wrong? What if you're wrong?
What if I am crazy?
In a few weeks, it will
have started or it won't.
If there's still
football games, traffic jams,
TV shows and armed robberies,
we're going to be so glad
that we'll be thrilled
to see the police.
I'm responsible for you now.
The Chinese say
if you save a person's life,
you're responsible
for it forever.
Do you have a plan?
I have to know.
MADELEINE:
There's so little that I know.
You said you'd never
seen the ocean.

On your normal mornin', okay.
Plenty of time.
But today you gotta take into account
your Army of the Twelve Monkeys factor.
What?
What'd you say?
Twelve Monkeys. Guess you folks
didn't turn on your radio this mornin'.
A bunch of weirdoes let all
the animals out of the zoo.
Then they locked up this big-shot
scientist in one of the cages.
Scientist's own kid
one of the ones did it.
They've got animals
all over the place.
Bunch of zebras closed down
the thruway 'bout an hour ago.
And they got some thing
called an emu.
It's got traffic blocked
for miles on 676.
MAN ON RADIO: ...what
they think they're accomplishing
by releasing an animal
into a city like this one?
[LAUGHING]
That's what they were up to,
freeing animals.
On the walls.
It said, "We did it."
They meant the animals.
The animals, yeah.
If I could interrupt
for a moment, Mr. Ginger...
There is going to be a press
conference from City Hall.
I think it's going
to be all right.
Tell your people if they
spot either one of them,
not to try
and apprehend them.
They should notify us. We
have people all over the airport.
We'll take care of it.

Hello. How are you today?
I don't know whether

Maybe you just clean carpets.
If you do, you're lucky. You're

But if you other guys are out
there, if you are picking this up,
forget about the Army of
the Twelve Monkeys.
They didn't do it. It was a

The Army of the Twelve Monkeys is just a

Good luck.

They did their

"Hey, this is Cole, James. I don't

"Maybe you just clean carpets."
Where'd you get that from?

I'm calling you a f*cking moron!
f*cking moron?
Get your hands off her!
Hold it. Wait a moment.
[BOTH ARGUING]
f*cking moron? Well,
you're not getting through.
Now get in that line.
COLE: I said stop!
[ARGUING CONTINUES]
There he is! That man!
He's carrying a deadly virus!
KATHRYN: Stop him!
Somebody, please stop him!
Police Offi...
[ALARM BEEPING]
MAN SHOUTS: He's got a g*n!
Watch it!
No!
Freeze!
Excuse me.
ASTROPHYSICIST: It's obscene,
all the violence,
all the lunacy.
Shootings even
at airports now.
You might say that we're
the next endangered species.
Human beings.
[PANTING]
I think you're right, ma'am.
I think you've hit
the nail on the head.
Jones is my name.
I'm in insurance.
[AIRPLANE ENGINES ROARING]
[WHAT A WONDERFUL WORLD
PLAYING]
I see trees of green
Red roses too
I see them bloom
Just for me and you
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world
I see skies of blue
And clouds of white
The bright blessed day
The dark sacred night
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world
The colors of the rainbow
So pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces
Of people going by
I see friends shakin' hands
Sayin', "How do you do"
They're really saying'
I love you
I hear babies or yin'
I watch them grow
They'll learn much more
Then I'll ever know
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world
Yes, I think to myself
What a wonderful world
Oh, yeah
