Recap

In the year 2026, a 47-year-old Peter Bishop is brought to the hospital to be treated for shrapnel to the chest. Astrid assures him that he’ll be fine. Later, Ella Dunham tries to get past the reception desk to check on him and admits that she was just promoted and doesn’t have an ID badge yet. The receptionist checks her bar code and informs her that Peter is in recovery and should be out soon. Olivia Dunham arrives and Ella refers to her as her boss. They discuss the man responsible, the End of Days terrorist Moreau, and Peter arrives and hugs Olivia. Olivia worries about him but Peter assures her that he’s fine. Ella asks him if he remembers talking about being from the past when he was in the field, but Peter says he doesn’t remember and he’s fine now. On the news, Moreau claims responsibility and Olivia informs them that they’ve initiated a Stage 3 amber protocol...

Episode Quotes
Walter: I didn't realize how much I miss swivel chairs. I also missed swiveling.

Walter: Our destiny was set the day we triggered the machine. I didn't understand it until it was too late that our two worlds were inextricably linked. Without one, the other simply cannot exist. When their world was destroyed, that was the day we sealed our fate. For all intents and purposes... that was the day we died.

Olivia: Amanda from across the street gave it to us. That's you and me and the little baby that we're going to have, that she is planning on babysitting.
Peter: Ohh. Well, I think we should get started on that right away.
Olivia: You really going to use a drawing from a little girl to get lucky?
Peter: It sounds so dirty when you say it like that.

Walternate: Do you know what it's like... to wake up and just for a moment think that everything is as it was? And realize it's not. That the nightmare you had was real. Soon everyone here will experience loss the way that all those over there did. Air, water, light, even. But you, you will experience loss the way I did.
Peter: What does that mean?
Walternate: You destroyed my universe, Son, and I'm going to destroy yours. And not all at once.

Walter: I'm so sorry, Ella. I understand... words can't come close to mitigating your loss. Truly, if I could go back and change things, I would. I would give anything to go back and make different choices.
Ella Dunham: But you can't. There aren't any happy endings nowadays, are there?
Walter: No, I suppose not.
Ella Dunham: I remember the cow that stayed over there. She had kind eyes.
Walter: She did, didn't she? My Gene. I miss her.

Walternate: You shattered my universe. Do you have any idea how many deaths you've caused?
Walter: That was an accident. What you have tried to do, you have done on purpose!
Olivia: Whatever you've both done, we're here now. So maybe it's time to start to fix it.

December: You were right. They don't remember Peter.
September: How could they? He never existed. He served his purpose.
