"the impossible astronaut"

"We've told him all we can. We can't even tell him we've seen his future self. He's interacted with his own past. He could rip a hole in the universe."

By the way, I loved seeing the older self of Mark Sheppard's Canton Delaware being played by William Morgan Sheppard, his real-life father, also known as Max Headroom's Reg the punk who'd try to get kids interested in reading.

ME: "I'm ready."
THEM: "We're not."
