"I trust that you're comfortable, Mr. Rory", Rip says. "Or do you answer to Chronos these days?".

"I don't take orders from you", Mick says. " I can't believe I ever did".

"Well that's debatable. I'm calling you for two reasons", Rip says. "First: we could really use your help".

"What's the second reason?", Mick asks.

"We're headed to 2147 to engage Savage", Rip says.

"Is that the second reason or the first?", Mick asks. "Ah, forget it".

"I owe you an apology, Mr. Rory", Rip says. "I failed you. I brought you along on this mission under false pretenses, in denial of your true nature. And when that nature too it's course, I asked Mr. Snart to....deal with you. My point being, your quarrel should be with me and not him, nor Ms. Clark".

"Well, if it make you feel any better, I want to kill all three of you", Mick says.

"Captain, we've arrived at 2147", Gideon says.

"Thank you, Gideon", Rip says. "Set a course for the Kasnian Conglomerate".

Meanwhile on the Bridge
"150 years in the future and people are still wearing if wool?", Jax says. "Man I hate wool".

"Be grateful, Mr. Jackson. Those living outside the Kasnian Conglomerate are dressed in rags", Rip says.

"Conglomerate?", Bonnie asks.

"Yes, in the year 2080, governments began to give away corporations", Rip says.

"More like 2008", Jax says.

"According to Gideon, in two hours time, our favorite immortal psychopath is scheduled to attend a meeting of the Conglomerate's share holders", Rip says.

"Ooh, sounds exciting. Don't it Bon?", Sara asks.

"I guess so", Bonnie says, not in the mood.

"You think Savage takes over the word by trading stocks?", Jax asks.

"What we do is, in 20 years time, Kasnia is the foothold from which Savage takes over the world, so we hardly want to take him on there, but if we can figure out how his actions here lead to his power, then we won't need to", Rip says.

"Copy that, Captain", Jax says. "But if we're gonna be checking out the future...".

"We should invite the nerd twins", Sara says.

"You know, I can already hear what Steins gonna say about 2147", Jax says.

Kasnia Conglomerate, 2127
"The future it's...".

"Fascinating", Jax said, the same time Sara said, "Astonishing".

"Well, it was a 50-50 chance which one he'd choose", Jax says.

"Actually, I was gonna say, 'Remarkable'", Stein says.

"Isn't it? 2147 was considered the worlds zenith", Rip says. "All these people have five good years to look forward too".

"Before what?", Snart asks.

"Before a ruthless dictator named Per Degaton come to power, release the Armageddon Virus, and most of them end up dead", Rip says.

"Well, that's depressing", Sara says.

"Your quiet", Snart whispers to Bonnie.

"Just observing", Bonnie says.

"What's wrong? Had a fight with Jax?", Snart says.

"No, I'm just not in the mood to talk", Bonnie says.
