My name is Damien Darhk.
In 2016, I was murdered by the Green Arrow.
But I was removed from the timeline 31 years before
my death by a speedster from the future named Eobard Thawne.
Together, with Malcolm Merlyn,
a former head of the League of Assassins,
the three of us are going to locate the Spear of Destiny;
a mystical object which can rewrite reality itself.
With the Spear in our possession,
we will change our past and our future.
And the world as you know it.
Previously on âLegends of Tomorrowâ...
A deep scan reveals that Captain Hunter's
neural architecture has been reprogrammed
with a new identity.
The Longinus Medallion.
Rip!
I know that you're one of the protectors
of the Spear of Destiny and I know that you know
where the other pieces are hidden.
You're gonna torture me, aren't you?
I'm not gonna torture you.
They are.
[sirens wailing]
Damien Darhk, the man behind tonight's siege of Star City,
was killed by the masked vigilante
known as the Green Arrow.
Amateur cell phone video captured his final moments,
putting an end to the chaos that has gripped the city.
[sighs deeply]
[laughs]
This is the great Malcolm Merlyn?
I am unimpressed.
Well, he's fallen on hard times.
But this man used to be Ra's al Ghul.
Uh, we haven't met. I'm Eobard Thawne.
I'm... from the future.
What the hell is going on here?
Excellent question. Here's another...
Do you believe in second chances?
I just watched you die.
Yeah, I hear 2016's not my best year,
but I plan on fixing that.
But the question for you, Malcolm, is:
Do you wish to see your fortunes similarly reversed?
By time travel?
No. No.
Something much better.

- Well? - No luck. So far.
It's not that Captain Hunter's uncooperative.
It's that he's not fully in possession of his marbles.
So he won't tell us where the rest of the Spear of Destiny is?
Uh, it's more like... can't.
Which wouldn't be such a problem
if you two idiots hadn't lost the Longinus Medallion.
I seem to remember you being there as well.
Until you weren't.
[groans]
I hate when he does that.
If you have something to say to me, Malcolm,
I suggest you keep it to yourself.
I'm sorry.
Am I supposed to be afraid of you?
Oh, I would be. Considering I can kill you
before you even knew I was doing it.
Ah, yes.
But then you wouldn't get what you want.
You brought me and Damien into your little quest for a reason.
Without the Medallion,
Hunter is our only way to get the rest of the Spear.
You need me to get it out of him.
We already tried torture.
I'm not talking about torture.
I'm talking about hypnosis.
Regression therapy.
[groans]
Hunter's mind is locked away.
I've got the key.
[grunts]
[breathes deeply]
Is this some technique you picked up
with the League of Assassins?
The League didn't call me âthe Magicianâ for nothing.
- Well, be quick about it. - [scoffs]
Speedsters aren't known for their patience.
What's to keep Hunter's crew from finding
the rest of the Spear
before Merlyn finishes
unscrambling Hunter's brain?
The workings of the Medallion
are lost to history.
Trying to get it to reveal its secrets will prove difficult.
Plus, we have an additional advantage over them.
Enlighten me.
They're idiots.
- You're all idiots. - Excuse me?
Pot, meet kettle...
Yeah, Mick. Given your glass house,
you shouldn't throw stones.
Mixing metaphors isn't going to solve anything.
How about instead of bickering,
we figure out our next move against the speedster
and his allies.
âLegion of Doomâ has a sexier ring to it.
I'm not calling them that.
And we need to figure out a way to rescue Rip.
All you gotta do is trade the Amulet, or the Medallion,
for the Englishman. It's really simple.
The only thing is, I don't know how it works.
Hmm. You're an idiot.
You want to put an artifact that can rewrite reality
into the hands of the enemy and we're the idiots?
- Mm-hmm. - Our priority has to be
identifying this speedster.
Of course you'd say that. I mean, he is the one
that killed your boyfriend, so...
He's at the center of this,
and you can't defeat an enemy that you don't know.
Look, Amaya's right.
And I hate to say it, but so is Mick.
- Both: I'm not an idiot. - Not about being idiots.
About using the Medallion as leverage.
But first, we need to figure out how it works.
Well, in my defense, it's a mystical object.
It doesn't come with a set of instructions.
Maybe's that been the problem, approaching it
from a mystical vantage instead of leaning into our strengths,
- which are... - Technological.
Exactly. And as it happens,
I have a colleague in Central City whose knowledge
might prove to be advantageous.
Gideon, set a course for Central City, 2017.
Jax, stick with Martin.
And let's work on putting a name to our speedster.
[door opens]
Aww, here comes a man
who looks like he just struck out.
Don't get smug with me, Damien.
I may not have all my prior resources,
but at least I'm not dead.
Look, I couldn't get Hunter to remember
because his memories aren't buried or locked away.
They're gone.
It's like his old self didn't exist.
Are you sure about that?
Do you think you can do any better?
You are welcome to try.
We already tried torture.
You know what I love about torture?
I'm not sure if you have enough time for me to list
all the reasons, but mainly it's because
there's always another gear to find.
[sighs]
This is what I get for relying on a washout and a dead man.
I don't like that guy.
- [metal scraping] - Hmm, you know.
I'll be honest.
Which I have to admit, I don't have much practice in.
I don't like this situation.
Not one bit.
For one thing, Mr. Thawne has this habit of treating me
like a henchman.
And do you know what all henchmen have in common,
Captain Hunter?
No thoughts on this one?
The thing that all henchmen have in common
is that they all end up dead.
A fate that I am fastidiously trying to avoid.
Maybe it's that I just hate taking orders.
Or being threatened.
You don't like being threatened, do you?
Hm? What's that?
Oh, sorry. [chuckles]
Oh, God. No.
Yeah, neither do I.
Which is why I need your cooperation.
To end Mr. Thawne's tedious threats.
Look, I... I don't know anything.
- I swear. - Shhh!
I can't take your word for it.
But don't worry.
I will start you off with an easy question.

No, please. Please, don't.
I'll do anything, I'll... I'll tell you anything

- Please, don't! - Shh.
Second question.
When was the last time you had any dental work done?
What? No, no, God.
[groaning, screaming]
It may not be in the best condition, but then again,

Does this look like a spear to you?
[whooshes]
It most certainly does not.
It's a mnemonic archive.
I'm sorry, are we supposed to know what that means?
Since it won't be invented for a century, no.
This device is designed to store memories.
Rip Hunter's, I'd assume.
Guys, I think I just figured it out.
Why a seemingly invincible speedster
would need to take on partners.
By all means, Dr. Heywood, please enlighten us.
Okay. What if Thawne isn't just chasing us?
What if he's running from something?
But running from what?
Time.
Time takes time to harden.
And if Thawne ceased to exist the moment
his great-great-whatever killed himself,
then, maybe, he has to keep moving
in order for his own nonexistence
not to catch up with him. Poo!
That doesn't even begin to make any kind of sense.
I don't know, it could work.
Professor, what do you think?
Per the scientific method,
there's only one way to prove it.
You'd have to trap Thawne in one place and then see what happens.

What do you think you're doing?
Renegotiating the terms of our partnership.
And it is going to be a partnership.
We need a bit more of a guarantee
that you're going to uphold your end of our bargain.
- [laughing] - [chuckles]
I'll guarantee you one thing.
If you don't open that door,
I'll kill you.
Yes, but I'm the only one who knows the code to open it.

Perhaps you can persuade our friend to cooperate?
Me? No.
I'd rather see how this plays out.
Aww.
It seems you two have formed an alliance.
There's just one problem.
That you're the only one who could give us
what we want... Yes, we know.
You're always so quick to remind us
how much we need you, Eobard.
But, clearly, you need us.
You could have gotten in this vault all by yourself.
Why didn't you?

And for that matter...
why would a man who can travel through time
always be in such a hurry?
We don't have time for this.
Oh, I've got all the time in the world.

Okay!
Okay, you two have made your point.
I need you as much as you need me, all right.
But if you do not open that door,
he is going to kill us.
He is coming for me!
Who's coming for you?
It's not a who. It's a... it's a...
A what? A thing.
What thing?
Can you be a little more specific?
My ancestor killed himself in an effort
to erase my very existence.
Well, you look pretty spry despite it.
The Flash pulled me from the timeline.
He held me captive for months and when I finally got loose,
I found myself... pursued by something.
I-I thought it was a time wraith,
the monsters that hunt speedsters who mess with time.
But, whatever is hunting me is...
far worse than a time wraith.
[roars]
It can sense the Speed Force.
And it's trying to kill me.
Interestin... so that's why you keep running out on us.
Huh. So you're kinda like a shark who'll die
if you stay in one place.
We are all going to die if you don't...
[sinister whooshing]
It's too late.
It's here.
Ah, well, the good news is you two finally
got what you wanted, you managed to balance our partnership.
We're now all equally dead.
Oh, I wouldn't worry about that.
This isn't the first scary speedster
that we had to put in his place.
We're gonna get you out of this bank vault, Eobard.
But on one condition.
You stop treating us like lackeys.
[scoffs] You think you can stop that?
Good luck!
Was that a yes?
[sighs]
- Yes. - Great!
Let's go to work.
Right, so, you say this thing
is attracted to the Speed Force?
What if you don't use it?
What are you suggesting?
That you stop running.
