TV reports show factories in Dayton shutting down as everyone has enough time and abandons their jobs. Will and Sylvia nearly time out themselves but survive by taking Raymond's salary. Raymond chases them back to Dayton but fails to stop them from distributing the stolen time Raymond times out, having neglected to collect his day's salary. He and Sylvia then decide to rob Weis' vault of a 1,000,000-year capsule. Fortis' gang ambushes them, but Will manages to time out Fortis in an arm-wrestling match and shoot his thugs. Now committed to ending the system, Will and Sylvia rob Weis' time banks, giving the extra time capsules to the needy, but soon realize that they cannot significantly change anything, as prices are raised faster to compensate for the extra time. Will gives Raymond enough time to survive long enough for his squad to find him and steals his car. Raymond finds Will, but Sylvia shoots him in the arm. When Weis refuses, Will releases Sylvia anyway. ![]() Will calls Weis to demand a 1,000-year ransom to be paid into the time-mission for the desperate. They manage to get a day each by selling Sylvia's earrings. Will attempts to get some time back from Borel, but his wife Greta tearfully explains that he has drunk himself to death. Will escapes, taking Sylvia to Dayton as a hostage, but Fortis' gang ambushes them, taking most of their time and leaving them with 30 minutes each.

The uncaring driver forces her to run back to Dayton, but she arrives a few seconds too late for Will to save her and times out in his arms. However, the city bus fare has risen from one to two hours, and Rachel, having used all but 90 minutes of her time to pay off a two-day loan, is short on a bus fare to return to Dayton. Will visits his friend Borel, who warns him against having so much time in Dayton, and gives him ten years, one for each year of their friendship, before meeting his mother to leave for New Greenwich together.

The following day, he transfers all but five minutes of his time to a sleeping Will, then times out by falling off a bridge before Will can stop him. In a secret location, Hamilton, who has 116 years remaining on his clock but is tired of living, reveals to Will that the people of New Greenwich hoard most of the time while constantly increasing prices to keep poorer people dying.
