Twelve monkeys are not murderers

I found that many people did not understand the film, thinking that Pete was the one who spread the virus. Is this really the case? Let's come one by one below.
The spreader of the virus has always been Pete's father's assistant, the man with the box. At the time of 1:55:30 in the film, the airport staff took the passport and asked the assistant if you were going to so many places a week. The person who answered was the assistant. In the future, based on the graffiti "WE DID IT" on the ground, James thought that the spread of the virus was done by the twelve monkeys, so he always targeted the twelve monkeys. After the twelve monkeys released the animals from the zoo, they painted graffiti on the ground, indicating that they had completed the mission. That's why James called back at the airport and said it wasn't the twelve monkeys that they were just protecting animals. The murderer was another person. After he finished the phone call, the futuristic sent Hossi to send the gun. James said who I would shoot at. The heroine hurriedly said to the assistant. Hossi had no objection, indicating that the future has been determined and the manpower has already been arranged on the plane. . The person in James's dream in the floral shirt was Pete, who shot his assistant, but was killed on the spot at the time, so the assistant succeeded. The second time, James replaced Pete and fired at the assistant, but was also killed.
So what is the end of humanity? In the next scene, Philadelphia will still be infected, and then the world. Because the virus box has been opened during the security check.
But this is not the end, because the carrier of the virus has been identified and will continue to pass through the airport security check in the future to control the assistant. So, what is the final outcome?
Humans continue to live on the ground.

    I don’t know why my Bruce is always so tragic and so distressing. Even the ending song has become what a wonderful world that breaks my heart...

    The story is not easy to understand, but Brad Pitt's performance is too amazing! I thought "Burn After Reading" was already his limit, but I didn't expect this to far break the limit~~

12 Monkeys quotes

  • [James Cole found a spider and knows he's got to take it with him, let's it crawl over his hand while deciding what to do with it]

    Jeffrey Goines: You know what crazy is? Crazy is majority rules. Take germs, for example.

    James Cole: Germs?

    Jeffrey Goines: Uh-huh. In the eighteenth century, no such thing, nada, nothing. No one ever imagined such a thing. No sane person, anyway. Ah! Ah! Along comes this doctor, uh, uh, uh, Semmelweis, Semmelweis. Semmelweis comes along. He's trying to convince people, well, other doctors mainly, that's there's these teeny tiny invisible bad things called germs that get into your body and make you sick. Ah? He's trying to get doctors to wash their hands. What is this guy? Crazy? Teeny, tiny, invisible? What do you call it? Uh-uh, germs? Huh? What? Now, cut to the 20th century. Last week, as a matter of fact, before I got dragged into this hellhole. I go in to order a burger in this fast food joint, and the guy drops it on the floor. Jim, he picks it up, he wipes it off, he hands it to me like it's all OK. "What about the germs?" I say. He says, "I don't believe in germs. Germs is just a plot they made up so they can sell you disinfectants and soaps." Now he's crazy, right? See?

    [James Cole finally takes the spider into his mouth, Jeffrey Goines is either too deep into his talk or unimpressed by this and continues his talk as if nothing happened]

    Jeffrey Goines: Ah! Ah! There's no right, there's no wrong, there's only popular opinion. You... you... you believe in germs, right?

  • James Cole: Look at them. They're just asking for it. Maybe the human race deserves to be wiped out.

    Jeffrey Goines: Wiping out the human race? That's a great idea. That's great. But more of a long-term thing. I mean, first we have to focus on more immediate goals.
