Suppose instead that every future-directed normal timelike geodesic were complete. Choose a point more than proper time to the future of . Global hyperbolicity supplies a longest timelike curve from to that point; it is a geodesic orthogonal to and has no focal point before its endpoint. But part d makes the convergence of every such normal congruence diverge within proper time . Nearby geodesics then intersect, producing a focal point after which the geodesic cannot maximize proper time. This contradiction proves that at least one timelike geodesic has finite maximal proper time, so has timelike geodesic incompleteness.
