! James and Railly unwittingly created the time loop
Dr Railly calls the elder Goines to warn about Jeffrey. The elder Goines is spooked enough to remove his own access to his labs germs, but this gives his apocalyptic assistant free reign.

* As they carbon dated the remains to 1,000s of years old, this seems unlikely. Even a jump back to 1987 was difficult to achieve.

** Seems easy enough to write around - damage to the machine and/or a partial understanding of how it works sends the subject (or parts thereof... meaning they would just assume it was another failed attempt) to an arbitrary, random date in the past, but kills them in the process (say, embedded them in ice where they are later found).

! [[BigBad The Witness]] is Cole from an alternate timeline
Given that both his organization and Cole use the same phrase "set right what once was wrong", and that we do not actually ''see'' the Witness at any point, the Witness is a Cole from a different Bad End future, who was sent back to recover the plague. Unfortunately, this Cole has slightly more of an advantage (but pretty similar methods) to the Cole who we are following.

Cole is in fact a schizophrenic patient, but the only parts of the film we see happen in reality are the scenes where he is in the hospital talking to psychiatrists. Both the "present" and future worlds were artificially constructed in his head. As a child, he was traumatized by an airport shooting, which in turn led to him constructing a world in his head. The psychologist Dr. Railly is real, and has been helping Cole for some time, but she is only going along with his delusions and occasionally having a bit of fun along the way (being able to leave a prank call about the Twelve Monkeys). Ultimately, Railly's help has started to bring Cole back into reality, but he is still under the delusion that he is a time traveler and requires her assistance, but occasionally he experiences a temporary relapse (his apparent returns to his own time). The climax is ultimately Cole coming to face the source of his delusions by experiencing the shooting again and confronting his delusions which, though not shown in the film, finally bring him back into the true reality.
