I'm good, thanks.
Got your text.
I loved westerns.
That's all I watched when I was a kid.
Gary Cooper and John Wayne.
They never crossed the line.
Good and bad, black and white.
There was a code, you know?
And then I go to war,
and all I can think about...
is, "My God.
"Those flicks are a bunch of crap."
[chuckles]
Because nobody is that good.
And then we meet this Bass guy,
and he really was that good.
What are you saying?
I want you to help me steal the time machine to save Jess.
[soft dramatic music]
You want me to do what?
- No. - Rufus...
Wyatt, I can't do that.
I'm not helping you...
kill someone else.
I'm not asking you to do that.
I'm asking you to help me figure out another way...
... To erase someone from existence.
Rufus, the man who killed Jessica
killed two other women.
I'm trying to stop a bad man...
from hurting good people.

Please, help me.
[gentle music]
I have no one else.
Will you help me save my wife?
