Warning: The following content contains spoilers for the movie Tenet, directed by Christopher Nolan. I strongly recommend this one-of-its-kind movie. If you haven’t watched it yet, save this medium story on your reading list, watch the movie, and come back.

The Present

The Protagonist: “Doesn’t us being here now means it never happens? That we stop them?”

Neil: “Optimistically, I’d say that’s right.”
