Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time
Movie Quote Quiz

Prince Dastan: You really enjoy telling me what to do, don't you?
Tamina: Only because you are so good at following orders.
Prince Dastan: Don't press your luck.

Prince Dastan: I've seen its power with my own eyes. Releasing the Sand turns back time. Only the holder of the dagger is aware of what's happened.

Tamina: The gods have a plan for you. A destiny.

Continuity mistake: When Ben Kingsley places the dagger in the sand crystal time goes backward. Tamina calls out Dastan's name and then he calls out her name in the same order as it happened in forward time. This should have been backward.

Question: Spoiler alert. When Dastan and Nizam are fighting over the knife stuck in the container holding the Sands of Time, it breaks free and they are both swept up, the scene then changing to Dastan back after he first discovers the dagger after the invasion of Alamut. He is aware of what happened in the previous time line obviously and acts to prevent the events from happening again. But what I am not clear on is how Nizam is acting at that point. Is he still aware of the previous time line? It's hard to tell by how he acts when Dastan confronts him. He was with Dastan when they went back in time to that point, but it was Dastan holding the dagger. So does that mean only Dastan knew what happened, or does Nizam remember it too?

Chosen answer: Only Dastan remembers. Nizam is acting strangely because Dastan is acting strangely. He suspects that Dastan is onto his secret plot somehow but can't figure out how Dastan could possibly know.
