The Legends gathered on the bridge. Mick drunk straight from a bottle of Scotch.
Mick: Mission... almost accomplished.
Rip: That bottle of Scotch was given to me by Rob Roy MacGregor in 1689.
Mick: It's not half bad.
Sara: We should be toasting to Savage's death.
Stein: Apart from celebrating murder, Savage still has Carter brainwashed.
Snart: I don't know if you've been paying attention, Professor, but murdering Savage was always the plan.
Mick: Besides, Carter reincarnated, which is more than I can say about us.
Snart: As long as he's on board and breathing, Savage is a threat to everyone on this ship.
Kendra: So what, we just kill Savage and leave Carter a brainless drone?
Mick: Yes.
Ray and Jax entered the bridge.
Ray: Sorry we're late, but we found something.
Jax: We've been running diagnostics on Ray's suit after his battle with Savage's Rock 'Em Sock 'Em Robot.
Ray: The telemetry data included a comprehensive scan of the robot's tech.
They displayed the scan on screen.
Stein: Amazing. This neuromorphic profile is astonishingly futuristic.
Kendra: Yeah, it's from 2166.
Jax: Well, that's the thing. It's not.
Ray: This technology's light years more advanced than anything from 2166.
Snart: Who cares?
Rip: The Time Masters. They refused to take action against Savage because he didn't pose a threat to the timeline.
Stein: But if he comes into possession of future technology...
Theta entered the bridge, met with everyone staring at him in surprise of his new appearance.
Theta: Then it means he's been manipulating the timeline in the same way that the Time Masters were created to prevent.
Everyone stayed quiet.
Theta: You're all staring. It's uncomfortable. Do I have something in my teeth? Yes? No? New teeth are always trouble. Why mess with perfection?
Stein: I'm sorry. I just couldn't believe it when they told me. You're the same man that we boarded this ship with?
Theta: The same Theta that saw you smoking weed in 1975, yes. It's me, Professor Stein. Everyone clear on that? Great.
Rip: Are you sure you don't want to head back to the MedBay?
Theta: I feel fine. A little groggy, but it can't be any worse than Mick being drunk on every mission, can it?
Rip: I suppose not. And with this evidence, the Time Masters will finally do something about the threat of Savage.
Mick: Last time I checked, the Time Council was at the edge of the timeline, and this bucket of bolts can barely hold it together as it is.
Rip: Gideon, what's the status of the Time Drive?
Gideon: Stable, Captain.
Rip: Plot a course for the Vanishing Point. Tonight, Vandal Savage faces justice for his crimes.

Theta worked on repairs to the ship in the hallway as Sara walked past.
Theta: Ah, Sara, would you mind handing me that quantum spanner?
