Philippe Weis

You'd steal from your own father.

Sylvia Weis

Is it stealing if it's already stolen?

Philippe Weis

Is that so? You might upset the balance for a generation. Two. But don't fool yourself. In the end, nothing will change. Because everyone wants to live forever. They all think they have a chance at immortality even though all the evidence is against it. They all think they will be the exception. But the truth is: For a few to be immortal, many must die.

Will Salas
[points a gun at Philippe]

NO ONE should be immortal, if even one person has to die.

Philippe Weis

Timekeeper. After this regrettable incident it's really not necessary for you to come in person.

Raymond Leon

I'm afraid it really is... necessary.

Philippe Weis

When can we hope for a rescue?

Raymond Leon

I believe that's the point; she doesn't appear to want to be rescued.

Philippe Weis

Mr Leon... Raymond. May I call you Raymond? [Leon doesn't respond] I blame myself. I invited the man into my home. He had so much time, how was I supposed to know? Of course, Sylvia brought this on herself by her lack of vigilance. That's why I always tried to keep her close. But she is clearly under Will Salas's control. [Weis examines his arm with clock on it] If it's a matter of resources, I'm... happy to make a contribution. It's a scandal what we pay our Timekeepers.

Raymond Leon
[Leon nods lightly in apparent agreement]

I have issued a warrant for your daughter's arrest. If she contacts you and you assist her in any way, I will issue a warrant for your arrest.

Philippe Weis

There's nothing I cannot buy. Now, how many of my years do you want?

Raymond Leon

There aren't enough years, even in your lifetime Mr. Weis. Goodnight.

Philippe Weis

Even if you gave a year to a million people, you're just prolonging their agony.

Sylvia Weis

We're prolonging their lives.

Philippe Weis

Flooding the wrong zone with a million years, it could cripple the system.

Will Salas

Let's hope so.

Sylvia Weis

We're not meant to live like this. We're not meant to live forever. Although I do wonder, Father, if you've ever lived a day in your life.
