Al Gough Died for Nothing

Sure enough, in the next scene, it's dark and Slingerland's starting the car. He says happily, "Celia Quinones, welcome to your future." Except that Slingerland's future holds a surprise -- Demetri barreling an FBI sedan right into Slingerland's station wagon as Slingerland turns on his headlights. Celia looks ...well, like a deer caught in the headlights. Demetri opens up his car door and bellows for Celia to run. She does... down the center of the road. And that is how Fiona ends up hitting Fiona at a decent clip. It's totally an accident, but still... it's a pretty bad accident. Also, somewhere in the melee, Demetri ended up taking Slingerland down and the tackle is apparently fatal. His last words are to Demetri: "See you soon, sport." Demetri is understandably freaked out. And, one thinks, probably very open to the idea of multiple universes right now. Time to find a mad scientist to send him to the one not intent on killing him!

Lloyd is leaving FBI HQ for the night when Simon approaches him and says, "I'm here to make up for my bad behavior." Lloyd mumbles that Simon's been under a lot of stress, but Simon presses on: "I just wanted to say thanks. Cambridge, the Brewschlagger Fellowship, for getting me in into NLAP." Lloyd is uncomfortable with this naked sincerity, and he says, "I did it for selfish reasons, Simon. You make me look good." Simon won't let him off the hook, and says with uncharacteristic sincerity, "Gracious as well. You helped me out, and you know it. I wouldn't be anywhere without you. I'm sorry I didn't tell you about Annabel. Truly, I am. I should've months ago, and it's been eating away at me. I've been pretending I was fine. I should have said something." Lloyd says, "I'm sorry I couldn't help. I would have, you know?" Simon knows: "I know you would. You're the only real friend I have." Lloyd can sense that this is out of the ordinary and offers to take Simon out for a drink. Simon says, "I'll see you, Lloyd," and beats a hasty retreat.
