C81-years in the future, S becomes a doctor & finds a cure for cancer, the specific type that V had. V had covered S’s tuition, he only survived 3 months after the night in the hospital but changed his will to cover her education at an Ivy League. Construction workers find carvings in walls & the hourglass.

Epilogue C80-S was rushed to hospital, her mother called to wish a happy NY & she snapped out of it. On the gurney next to S was V, he & Roger had a special word to cut the plan off & V called it, the word was Grace.

C79-D wakes at the base of the tower, turns around & runs back to A. D&A watch the sunset as they always did & slowly their bodies give out. Once their eyes closed; they rose together as a shared soul.

C78-old man says D is dying, that the cave wasn’t a punishment but rather a blessing to learn to appreciate life. He places a ring of D’s fingers, says they will all get to finish their story’s.

C77-D struggles with time being frozen, the ancient curse is taking him. V&S decide to take D back in time, they agree to stay together no matter what. V&S see the clock store proprietor, it’s the old man with the cane who banished D to the cave. He tells them to bring D in.

C76-D talks about the world into which he was born, his measuring devices, family, being imprisoned in the cave. D is getting more sick, has no idea how old he is, painfully inhales then collapses.

C75-V finds his body in a tube, all shrivelled & atrophied, skin is blotched and he looks to be in pain. The people watch his memories to remember how to feel. D explains that endless time causes un-appreciation, the days are limited to make time precious.

C74-D shows the future, few centuries ahead. There’s flying aircraft’s everywhere, difficult to distinguish gender, people’s heads seem larger. V sees people watching memories of his life that weren’t filmed, thinks he’s a legend in an exhibition.

C73-back in cryonics facility, G arrives (in the future look), she can’t see V but knows he’s in the tank. G hits and kicks the tank then walks out. V asks to be shown if the cryonics plan even works.

C72-V saw what happened to S, felt terrible for her. V notices D is looking very unwell as time goes but V is feeling much better. D says it’s V’s turn to be shown, they ascend together.
