We’re the people saving the world from what might’ve been. World would never know what could happen. Even if they did, they wouldn’t care.
[Kat walks along the pavement on her way to Max’s school, and notices an ominous black car facing her.] Because no one cares about the bomb that didn’t go off. Only the one that did.
[In the car, a man is holding a pistol. Priya sits on the passenger’s seat beside him]
Do it before the boy comes out-
[The man turns suddenly as if he noticed something before being shot. Priya gasps and turns the back mirror only to find The Protagonist sitting behind her.]
That’s your idea of mercy? You gave me your word.
And I told you then, what it would be worth. Here. Today. How did you know?
[The Protagonist takes out a phone and plays a voice message.] (voiceover)
Cannon Place, 3 o’clock. Probably nothing, I’m-
Posterity.
[Outside on the pavement, Kat is holding the phone The Protagonist gave her earlier.] [to the phone]
Cannon Place, 3 o’clock. Probably nothing, I’m ...
[Cut to inside the car]
I told you you’d have to start looking differently at the world.
I, have to tie up the loose ends.
That was never your job.
Then whose was it?
Mine. I realized I wasn’t working for you, we’ve both been working for me. I’m the Protagonist.
[Priya turns the back window away, and The Protagonist shoots her.]
Mission accomplished. [looks at Kat, who is now turning off her phone]
[The Protagonist looks as Kat waits for Max.] (voiceover)
That’s the bomb with the real power to change the world.
[Kat walks away with Max, who holds her hand.]
