![]() Kid Blue captures Old Joe and takes him to Abe. Joe realizes that Cid will become the Rainmaker and that Old Joe will now know this. ![]() Terrified, Cid kills Jesse using telekinesis. In the morning, Joe wakes to find Jesse holding Sara at gunpoint. Later that night, Sara and Joe have sex, and Sara reveals that while she has slightly above-average telekinetic powers, Cid's abilities are far stronger. Jesse, a Gat Man, comes to the farm, but Cid and Joe hide. Joe guesses that Old Joe is going to kill all three children born at that hospital on the same day, not knowing which one will become the Rainmaker. Sara recognizes the numbers on the map as Cid's birthday and the location of the hospital where he was born. Joe follows the map to a farm where a woman named Sara lives with her young son Cid. Both Joes escape, with pieces of the map. Kid Blue and the Gat Men appear, and a gunfight ensues. He acquires a map from a local library using numbers written on his hand that are supposed to pertain to the Rainmaker's identity. He wants to alter history again and save his wife by killing the Rainmaker as a child. Old Joe experiences vague memories of Joe's actions in the present, and meets his younger self at a diner. Overpowering his captors, Old Joe sends himself back to 2044, altering his history by evading Joe and escaping. Seven years later, his wife is killed when Joe is taken to close the loop. Eventually, he marries and breaks the addiction with his wife's help. He moves to Shanghai and becomes a hitman to finance his drug addiction and wild lifestyle. In another timeline, Joe does kill his older self. Returning to his apartment and finding it ransacked by the Gat Men, Joe fights with Kid Blue, falls off a fire escape and blacks out. When Joe's next target arrives, it is his older self, but with his face uncovered and hands unbound. These effects appear on Old Seth's body he goes to the address on his arm and is shot dead by Kid Blue, one of the Gat Men. Abe's elite "Gat Men" capture Seth, cut an address into his arm, and begin severing body parts. ![]() Joe reluctantly hides Seth in his apartment's floor safe, but later reveals his location after Abe threatens to confiscate half of Joe's saved silver. Old Seth has escaped, after warning Seth that a person in the future called the Rainmaker will overthrow the five major bosses and close all loops. Joe's friend Seth confesses to Joe that he failed in an assignment to kill his future self. To hide connections to the syndicate, any loopers who survive until 2074 are sent back and killed by their own younger selves, referred to as "closing the loop." These targets are identified by gold bars instead of silver, marking the end of the looper's contract. Managed by a man from the future named Abe, loopers kill and dispose of victims whose faces are concealed, recovering silver bars attached to their targets as payment. In 2044, 25-year-old Joe works for a Kansas City crime syndicate as an assassin, or "looper." Since tracking systems in the future of 2074 have made it nearly impossible to dispose of bodies undetected, the syndicate sends its enemies back in time to be executed.
