Plot: Gideon (Lance Reddick) and Vincent (Graham McTavish) stand apart and stare daggers at each other. Gideon looks around. He calls out for the strategist, the curator and the architect. Vincent laughs and says it is no use. The sentients are dead. Gideon questions this, who did it? Vincent smiles and says that he did. He felt that Control needed a little push in the right direction and the only way to do that was to get rid of the sentients. Gideon also questions him on the 2025 war. Vincent tells him he is starting to sound like the curator. He says that the war was inevitable he just changed the chess pieces. Gideon, shocked to hear about the sentients and the 2025 war charges at Vincent, he tackles him to the ground, suddenly they disappear.
The two of them reappear at the Control Headquarters. They are separated again, Gideon looks around and questions how he got here. Vincent explains that the little trinket that he gave him was actually a device that allows him to control his teleportation’s. He can send him anywhere. He presses a button and Gideon disappears. Vincent smiles but he suddenly disappears too.
The screen flashes, Gideon looks around at destruction and realises where he is…2025. He scurries to find shelter. Vincent also appears and wonders how he ended up exactly where he sent Gideon. Gideon comes out of cover and tells him that he too implanted Vincent with a device, he was starting to become suspicious of him. Vincent tries to find his device and throws it to the ground, as does Gideon. The two engage in a fist fight, although older, Vincent knows more about martial arts and begins to get the upper hand. Suddenly the American army marches toward their position. The two see this and scurry to the side. Gideon disappears and transports himself to the other side of the road. He can still see Vincent, however he sees another man scurry in the background, he realises it is the other Vincent, the one that started this war. He checks the date and realises it is only a day into the war. He teleports once more, a day earlier. Vincent sees he is gone and panics slightly, he also teleports away.
Gideon reappears in the exact spot a day earlier. He sees Vincent running in the distance, he knows it isn’t the one he was just fighting because he doesn’t have the battle scars. He gets down close to him and yells out to him and tells him to stop. Vincent turns around and asks what Gideon is doing here. Gideon says he knows what he is doing here, Gideon tells him he doesn’t have to do this, and he doesn’t need to start this war. Vincent looks at him and says the war is inevitable. Gideon goes to attack him but the other Vincent appears. Gideon fights both Vincent’s. Both Vincent’s are getting the better of him but he manages to teleport away. He grabs his laser gun and shoots down at the Vincent’s. They each dodge the lasers. Gideon teleports back down and fights them again. He places a teleportation device on present day Vincent, he send him away, leaving him to fight 2nd Vincent. The two have a brawl. Gideon begins to get the better of Vincent. Gideon begs him not to do this. Vincent fights back and gets up. Gideon apologises to him and pulls the trigger on the laser gun. Vincent drops dead. We go to Control HQ where Gideon sent Vincent. We see him drop to the ground and simply disappears, he was erased from existence.
