When you become emperor, aren't you afraid of the possibility of being assassinated for being such an infamous figure? I'm sure you don't want to be the next Julius Caesar.
I'm not "afraid" of anyone or anything! I'd like to see people try. Have fun trying to get past all my high security and guard robots. Plus, even if they could, I've survived up against Sonic thousands of times! If I'm so brilliant, smart and strong that even he isn't powerful enough to kill me off, what makes you think anyone else has a chance?
I'm far from weak and helpless, I'm always armed and dangerous, I have thousands of powerful robots, mechs and fleets at my immediate disposal and I'm physically very strong if all else failed. Once I rule the world and have all the control and power I deserve, absolutely nobody will be able to stop me and I will rule for generations to come, hoho!
Besides, I'm the type of guy to do the assassinating, not become the assassinated. In fact, I was one of the men who killed that guy myself! Here's the proof!
You see, I was there!
How is that possible, you might ask? I went back in time, duh! Why? Because I support the assassination of anyone in power, they're all ridiculous and undeserving because they're not ME!
I'M the only one who should be in any position of power because I'm the only one deserving and I'm going to make a much more brilliant, fearsome and powerful ruler than them all!

Juno and Morrie agree to meet for brunch once a year, every year. They each visit Dr Ruiz’s gravesite, as well as young Lenore’s to pay their respects. At some point they each plant a tree in her memory, and another for Lenore - rather than a bouquet. Bill and Jules sometimes join them.
Alessandra’s colleagues fight to complete her work on the heart mesh. On their own time. Takes many years before they can properly move to human trials, but they’re gonna do it right this time. No shortcuts, no illegal activity. Everything above board. They call it the Ruiz pump or something like that. Ali pump?
Morrilla reclaims her maiden name. The Lenore Foundation is keeping her plenty busy, but she wouldn’t have it any other way. She never remarries. In fact, she hardly has time or desire left for any kind of romantic relationship. Lenore was and is her everything. She’s helping so many people and thanks to all the surgeries, she’s looking fucking fabulous doing it.
Juno is recovering quite well. She’s helping so many people. Lord knows she has her rough days but dammit she pulled through. And she’s using all of fuckhead Roddie’s money to help others pull through as well. Thousands. And soon, millions. Even out the plane field. Making up for nearly all the lives lost or ruined by her ex husband’s damn poison tablets. His fucking impressive tally.
Bill begins running his own gym. He emphasizes to his clients to never over exert themselves. Taking care of their bodies is more than diet and exercise. It’s listening to your body and resting when you need to. His new business partner is kind & beautiful. They fall in love, and see and treat each other as equals. He’s no longer just an asset. And no more girls. He is so grateful for that.
Jules starts volunteering at an animal shelter and adopting the ones that are at risk of getting euthanized. Pretty soon the local shelter has to close down so he builds a new one. Makes it a cat cafe. They get more traffic. It’s therapeutic.
They all refer clients and people to each other. They each help make the world a better place.
