Description:  Sikorski kills Bremmer, then turns on J.T. and Claudia. Sikorski reveals that he knows Claudia will inherit $12 million worth of property from Bremmer. He intends to force Claudia to sign a quitclaim, then kill her and J.T., and gain ownership of the property. Carl steals J.T.'s rented green Jeep. Carl and Brad independently head to the bar where Sikorski has taken Claudia and J.T. Carl tries to kill Brad with the stolen Jeep, but Brad shoots at him. Carl loses control of the Jeep, which crashes into the bar, knocking down Sikorski. J.T. loads the empty gun Sikorski gave him with a cartridge from the briefcase. Sikorski asserts that the cartridge won't work because it is from the future, but J.T. kills him with it seconds before Sikorski fires his own gun. Carl intends to kill J.T., believing that the events revealed by the briefcase must not be altered. J.T. tells Carl to look in the briefcase, predicting that the police file has changed to reflect the deaths of Bremmer and Sikorski, and now details their unsuccessful plots to kill J.T. Carl becomes fascinated by the change, believing that physics has been satisfied. As the survivors leave the bar, J.T. surmises that Jesse „ whose middle name is Tracy „ will be the "Professor J.T. Neumeyer" who owns the briefcase in the future, and that she will send the briefcase back as a warning to her father, by some as-yet nonexistent technology.
