Virgil begs him to build another time machine, but Charlie won't listen. He won't even listen when Virgil pushes him against the wall and threatens him. Charlie says going back could undo the entire universe, but Virgil insists that he takes Zeke's place.

It was supposed to have been me, he says.

Charlie freezes, but shakes his head. Virgil pleads with him again, tells him that he loved Zeke and that it shouldn't have been him that went. Charlie stares at his distraught friend, tears in his eyes, knowing there's nothing he can possibly do to help his best friend.
