Jennifer: Five years!! I've been here, alone, by myself for five years and your asking about Cassie? About Ramse?! What about me? What about, 'hey Jennifer, how did you survive WWI?' Hey, I'm really glad you asked because I was a prisoner of WAR!
Cole: Jennifer...
Jennifer: And YOU, Grandma Time!
Jones: 'Scuse me?
Jennifer: Check your mail? I've been sending you messages, leaving you clues? I even wrote an album...I'm Still In France...It's 1921...And my favorite, Jones, Send Help.
Jones: Why on earth did you use a stage name?

The Witness, your son is a child, a man, a word, our savior, present now yet also in the past. He's all of this simultaneously.

Dude

Cole: Who are you?
Sock Mask Dude [unmasks]: That's right. Take it all in. Greetings, asshole. I'm future asshole.

Cole: How is this not a paradox?
Future Cole: This helps with that [points to his chest].
Cole: That's a machine?
Future Cole: No, this is just what we all wear in the future. Yes, it's a machine!

Wouldn't you rather live in your son's adoration than his scorn for this selfish act?

You're gonna have to have to forgive yourself for what you've done, for what you're going to have to do. There's a beginning and there's an end, always. All you and I are ever going to have is what's in between. Wearing this means that somehow, some way, you're always going to find your way back to her. Time to go. See you soon.

Future Cole [to Cole]

Future Cole: That was harder than I thought it was going to be.
Future Cassie: You told him there was hope.
Future Cole: I had to get him there some way.
Future Cassie: You know there's another way.
Future Cole: No. There's not.

Cassie: Where is the Witness?
Tall Man: He's safe. One of two travelers outside of time. You brought him here Cassandra. The Witness is here... Mother.

Cassie: The Witness has his own machine?
Cole: We need to find it.

Cole: You don't get it. I can't travel through time anymore. I don't have a machine.
Lillian: James Cole does not need a machine. Go down the rabbit hole.

Cole: What if it's not over? The red forest. The plague. The Witness. What if Ramse never got him?
Cassie: I think we'd know.
Cole: How?
Cassie: We're still here. Your words. Time didn't collapse. Maybe this is just how it's meant to be.

This is exactly where we're supposed to be. Home.

Cassie

12 Monkeys Quotes

About four years from now, most of the human race is gonna be wiped out by a plague; a virus. All we know is that it's because of a man named Leland Frost. I have to find him.

Cole

What if you could take it back? All of it? A reset switch? You'd hit it right? You'd have to.
