信条Tenet Movie Script

MEDIC:

Three hours, tops.

The Protagonist thinks. He looks at Kat, who is dying.

PROTAGONIST:

I’m taking her through. I’m not going to let her die, I’ll take my chances out there.

IVES:

Chances of what? We’ve got no way to bring you back.

PROTAGONIST:

We find another machine.

IVES:

A week ago? Where?

The Protagonist looks at Neil – they have the same idea – Oslo.

NEIL:

IVES:

That facility’s impregnable. It’s inside an airport security perimeter.

那个设施坚不可摧。它在机场安全区内。

PROTAGONIST:

Not last week, it wasn’t. We’re going in. You might as well help.

Ives, shaking his head, joins in. As they carry Kat towards the vault door, Ives points at the glass partition –

IVES:

This is the proving window... as you approach the turnstile if you don’t see yourself through the proving window, do not enter the machine.

Why not?

PROTAGONIST:

IVES:

If you haven’t seen yourself reverse-exit the machine, you won’t be getting out. Okay, first in, last out. Get into the turnstile, pass through – I’ll already be there with her.

PROTAGONIST:

Is that gonna work?

Ives pauses, watching activity on the other side of the window –

IVES:

(points) Yeah... The Protagonist turns to see HIMSELF on the other side of the glass, MOVING IN REVERSE, wheeling KAT ‘TOWARDS’ THE VAULT DOOR – Let’s go! IVES (CONT'D) Ives OPENS the door – the Protagonist takes one last look at his backwards self ‘entering’ the machine, then STEPS INSIDE – We follow him in as the door SHUTS behind him – he puts his back to the wall – the machine starts CLANKING like an MRI – the door opens on the other side – he STEPS OUT... To see Ives struggling with Kat – he moves to help – Neil is already there (first in, last out).

The Protagonist looks through the glass to where he and Ives now appear to be moving backwards... The Medic tends to Kat.

MEDIC:

She’s stabilizing slowly. I’ll clean and close, the rest is time.

PROTAGONIST:

How long does she need?

MEDIC:

4 or 5 days. A week to be sure.

PROTAGONIST:

(to Neil) Figure out how to get us to Oslo – I’ve got to get back out there –

NEIL:

To do what?

PROTAGONIST:

To stop Sator getting away with the whatever it is I just gave him.
