"[SIGHS]" "Formula for root beer." "Root beer?" "That's what's so important you couldn't stop yourself from broadcasting?" "I haven't had it for ages." "L..." "I thought I might make some in the lab tomorrow." "Where are you going?" "It occurs to me it might be easier to sleep in the tub." "A root-beer float." "Delicious." "PETER:" "Next time, would you please drain the tub?" "Oh." "Yes, indeed." "PETER:" "I know how to get there." "AGENT:" "Slow down." "Her office is right up here." "I've been there before." "Sir, you don't have clearance to walk unescorted." " Peter." " We need to talk." "Is that okay?" "Do I have clearance to talk to her?" "OLIVIA:" "It's okay." "I got it." "Come with me." " Where is your father?" " Walter is at the hotel." "But your agents are standing guard." "Not that it matters, the man is unconscious." "He was awake till 5 reciting the chemical compositions of his favorite beverages after he finished lecturing on how I squandered my above-average intellect and my substantial education." "All while he was standing there naked because he prefers the breeze." "Your living arrangements are temporary." "We're finding you an apartment." "Olivia, don't bother." "I wanted to help." "I felt bad." "I still feel bad about what happened to you." "But the truth is, you don't need me here." " That isn't the truth." " It is." "Things are happening here." "Strange things that need investigating that connect to the insane work Walter was doing way back when." "But he's the one with the answers." "You need him." "I'm just a babysitter." "Peter, you decipher what he says, things other people can't even follow." "No, not anymore." "Anybody can do that." "There's nothing special about me." "You're his son." "That's not the only thing." "I don't do well staying in one place, you know that." "This isn't the job for me." " Lf you leave, so does he." " Really?" "If the federal government wants to get Walter out of a mental institution they can't without his son's consent?" " It's your father." "He's made it very clear that if you leave, he won't cooperate with our investigations." "[SCOFFS]" "I don't believe it." "He would rather go back to St claire's than work here without you." "He's said that more than once." "Was he wearing clothes at the time?" "Good morning." "Hello." "Hello." "Morning." "Morning." "Morning." "Yesterday there was an explosion at a construction site in Brooklyn." "A crane collapsed." "Left three dead, two dozen injured." "The public was told it was a gas-main explosion which, technically, is the truth." "It's what caused the explosion I want you to see." "We had it transported here late last night." "We've got NSA and cDc gathering data." "But, Dr. Bishop I wanted you to see this as soon as possible." " What is it?" " It's why you're here." " We don't know." " It just fell from the sky?" "It came from underground." "Blasted through an unused subway tunnel into a gas main." " Underground?" "BRO YLES:" "Came to rest on the surface as if someone placed it there." " Solid iridium." " We think so, yes." " Subsonic vibrations?" " At two megahertz, then at four." " This is vibrating?" "OLIVIA:" "Dr. Bishop do you have an idea what this may be?" "An idea, yes." "Do you feel like sharing?" "No." "It's too early." "BRO YLES:" "This isn't the first time one of these has shown up." "1987, at Quantico." "Colonel Jacobson was in charge of the investigation." " Henry Jacobson?" " I spoke to him myself this morning." "He's expecting your visit." "Said he's looking forward to seeing you again." "OLIVIA:" "What do you wanna do?" "What kind of man would take off on you the minute a can of magic space soup appears out..." " Who says it came from space?" " It's a joke." " Oh?" " Thank you for staying." "This is the last one, Olivia and then I'm gone." "Okay." "We need to get this back to the lab." "We can't risk transferring this to the university." " We'd rather..." " lf you require my perspicacity such as it exists, then there are certain fundamental requirements not the least of which is access to my equipment, my lab." "JACOBSON:" "Well, well, well." "I was hoping I'd have an excuse to see you again." "It's good to see you." "[CHUCKLES]" "It's been more than a year since she died." "It's still difficult." "I suppose it always will be." "Jessica took care of the house." "Hell, she, ha, ha." "She took care of everything." "I apologize for what has to be horrible coffee." "No." "It's delicious." "[CHUCKLES]" "I, uh..." "I know you lost someone too." "My condolences." "It's not easy losing a partner." "I know you and Agent Scott were close." "What can you tell me about Quantico, 1987?" "Master Sergeant Stuart Malick." "He was at his post at the Marine base on the night of June 22nd." "His job was to watch the motion sensors." "Perimeter security, to ensure that there was no breach at the base." "Except on that night, the sensors went nuts." "What he found was this." "A metallic cylinder, 24 inches tall, 12 inches in diameter." "He assumed it fell from the sky, that perhaps it was a piece of a satellite except it wasn't." "Stranger still although it seemed to be a solid piece of hard metal it was vibrating." " At two megahertz then again at four." "There's another." " Where is this one?" "Still at Quantico?" " I was called in to investigate." "We determined it was transmitting something a signal that we couldn't decode." "Forty-eight hours after we found it there was an explosion unlike anything I'd ever seen." "It went through the floor to the basement below." "It exploded down." "And was gone." "I'll give you my files, whatever you need." "But this was a weird one, Olivia." "And if it's happening again as a friend, I'd ask you to stay as far away from this thing as you can."

"Department of Defense wanted a subterranean torpedo a missile which could, in theory, be shot from anywhere in the world through the Earth's core and hit its target on the other side." "I know for a fact that is ridiculous." "Open your mind, son, or someone may open it for you." "PETER:" "Even that doesn't make sense."

"And he looks the same." "And he was there, with us." "What?" "Come with me." "Excuse us, please." "It took us a year to spot him." "You did it in three weeks." "Who the hell is this guy?" "That is one excellent question." "You've run him through every database?" " Of course." " And there's nothing on him at all?" "No positive ID." "We've recorded him at over three dozen scenes all of which relate to the Pattern." " How?" " I mean, why?" "What is he doing?" " What it looks like he's doing is watching observing." "Which is why we refer to him as the Observer." "But what he wants and why he's there, we don't know." "He was there the other day, in New York at the construction site?" "[CELL PHONE RINGING]" "This is Broyles." "When did it happen?" "Okay." "Turn it on." "[TONE PLAYING OVER SPEAKERS]" " What is that?" " Called "sound."" "[PHONE RINGING]" "I know that, thank you."

"I wanna know what the hell this tin can is." "ASTRID:" "Peter?" "It's Olivia." " Hello." " There's been an attack, Peter." "The team at the warehouse is dead." " What?" "Who did it?" " I don 't know." "We're moving the thing to a secure facility." "I'm on my way." "Got it." "Whatever the hell that thing is, you should have never brought it here." "Why do you say this?" " Someone come for it?" " Why would you ask that?" " Have they?" " Yes." "We need to keep this safe." "I need something, something very important." " What?" " Aluminum foil." " Why?" " Trust me." " No, thank you." " Damn it!" "Must you always be such a smartass?" "I need the aluminum foil right now to shield the frequencies of the cylinder." "Your life depends on it." "All our lives depend on it." "Go now." "I'm gonna go get you your aluminum foil." "When I get back, you're gonna tell me what you think that thing does."

"We'll be right there." "Walter just got picked up, walking the median of l-95." "Thank you." "[DOOR CLOSES]" "If it's possible, I would very much like my own clothes back." "Let me explain how this works to you, Walter." "You can't inject a federal officer with sedatives, steal government property escape from custody, and then ask to be not treated like a criminal." "Have you never taken anything because you knew it was the right thing to do?" "This isn't about me." "Maybe it is, Peter." "You took the cylinder." "Do you remember that?" "Yes, of course." "What would you like to know about it?" " Where is it?" " I can't tell you that." "But I can tell you that someone is coming to seek the cylinder thus I had to hide it." "And I don't recall where or from whom." "OLIVIA:" "We need you to remember." "It may be dangerous and we need to help keep people safe." "Tell me what it is." "If I attempted to explain it to you, you might think me mad." "Don't worry, there's no chance of that happening." "I believe there are only another four hours in which I must keep the cylinder from those who are trying to get it." "A theory I have discussed with my friend, who agrees with me." "Your friend." "Um, he's a tall fellow, right?" " Pink, big fuzzy ears?" " No, he's a man." "Quite nice, albeit extremely bald." "No eyebrows either." "Ha, ha." "It's disturbing, but you get accustomed to it." "You talked to him?" "You think it's a good idea to feed into his delusions?" "Walter, who is he?" "Where can we find him?" " You won't be able to find him..." " He's in the seventh dimension." "He's shy." "Though he wouldn't be any use to you." "He just observes." "You haven't talked to this man." "You've seen him in Olivia's photographs so cut out the gibberish and tell us where the cylinder is." "Must you always be so small-minded?" "Damn it, don't be like her, like your mother." "Questioning my judgment." "I am not a child." "I will not be babied." "[CHUCKLES]" "Thank you for that." "That's exactly what I needed." "Guilt relieved."

" I couldn't tell you." "Walter's hiding something." "He's being as cryptic as ever." "He says he had to keep the cylinder safe, that someone is looking for it." "Welcome to the joys of Walter Bishop." "Where did he take it?" "You'll have to ask Walter, he won't tell me." "But apparently he had a meeting with a man matching the description of our friend, the bald guy." "Well, I know a lot of bald guys." "The Observer." "Are you saying that Walter said he knows him?" "I'm saying he's not cooperating." "I'm saying I'm confused." "[CELL PHONE RINGING]" "Hey, man." "Thanks for calling me back so fast." "Look, don't start with me right now, okay?" "Well, guess what, I'm calling this time to ask for a favor too." "No, I need some work." "Well, I don't really care, as long as it puts some money in my pocket." "Anywhere but Boston." "Okay." "Agent Dunham?" "Agent Farnsworth is on the phone." "I don't know, about an hour ago." "When he left, he was pretty upset with Walter." "Maybe he just finally left." "No, there was a struggle here." "I'll check it out." "Thanks, Astrid." "Call Harvard campus security." "There's a closed-circuit camera outside Countway Library aimed at the Kresge Building." "I need footage going back two hours." "[PANTING]" "PETER:" "You don't work for Big Eddie, do you?" "Look, I think you got the wrong guy." "What I'm saying is whatever it is you want, I don't think I'm gonna be able to give it to you."

"Have you ever seen this man before?" "I don't believe so, no." "Something's happened, yes?" "Something unfortunate." "What is it?" "I believe this man may have abducted Peter." "That's not..." "No." " Peter will lead him to it." " To what, the cylinder?" " Yes." " How?" "Did you tell him where you put it?" "No, of course not." "I don't need to." "You and your colleagues had the cylinder last." "Where is it now?" "I have no idea." "And even if I did, you're the last person I would tell." "[PETER PANTING]" "But you just did tell me." "Your father hid it, but you don't know where." "[PETER GROANS]" "And yes, to answer your question, when this is over, I just might kill you." "It depends on a few things." "When was the last time your father kissed you?" " I think that's your lamest question yet." " Yeah?" "[GROANING]" "Think about your father." "[MACHINE BUZZING]" "Good." "Good." "Now think about a time before he was sent away to the institution." "A happy time." "A time when you still believed that your father loved you." "[GRUNTING]" "[STOPS MACHINE]" "[PANTING]" "Beside his car and your old house, does your father have any other hiding places?" "Answer the question." "Does your father ha...?"

"Thank you." "That's wonderful news." "Come on, I'm gonna take you back to your hotel." "If you don't mind, there's something I'd like to do first." "WALTER:" "What I did to you was very untrustworthy of me." "I never intended to harm you." "I was simply doing what was necessary to protect us all." "If it would help you feel a sense of retribution I would tell you to inject me too." "But I'd most likely enjoy it." "Hi." "Uh, Peter Bishop, he was brought in about an hour ago." "Excuse me." "Hi." "Are you okay?" "Yeah." "I'm fine." " So did we recover your cylinder?" " We dug out the hole but there's no sign of it." "As soon as the sun comes up we'll bring in an excavator, but I don't have an expectation we'll find it." "So it just disappeared?" "We ID'd the shooter." "John Mosely." "Wanted for a double homicide in Seattle last month." " A few drug-related felonies before that." " Seattle?" "Came a long way to try and get that thing." "Another in a long line of questions." "I should get back." "As you can imagine, there are some interagency fires to quash." "NSA considered that device their personal property." "They're looking for an explanation." "So I'll see you tomorrow?" "Yeah." "Hi." "You ready to get out of here?" "Something happened out there tonight, Olivia." "The Pattern that Broyles refers to, I always thought it was nonsense." "Inexplicable things happen every single day." "That does not mean that there is any deeper significance." "I know this is gonna sound insane." "I know that it sounds insane, but the man in the woods, he knew me." "I don't know how, but he was inside my head." "He knew what I was going to say before I said it." " The man I shot?" " No, the other guy, the bald guy." "From your photos, Mr. No-Brows." " Peter, I didn't see anyone." " You know me well enough to know these are the last words I would expect to be saying, but what if Walter is right?" "What if this is just the beginning?" "Listen, you took a pretty bad blow to the head." " You think I did this to myself?" " No, I just..." "I was wrong to demand that you stay here." "Walter is not your responsibility." "As you've always said, this was just supposed to be temporary." " You have your life." " Olivia, did you hear what I just said?" "I mean, I'm a fairly open-minded guy." "But there are things happening here that I can't even begin to explain, and I am not going anywhere until I can." "In that case, you might want this." "Your credentials have been approved." "Civilian consultant to the Department of Homeland Security." "This mean I don't need an escort to come into the federal building anymore?" "Yeah." "Will it get me out of speeding tickets?" "Maybe." "PETER:" "So let me tell you about my day, Walter." "I was abducted, tortured, I had two wires shoved up my nose that were connected to a machine I'd never seen before." "But maybe the strangest part of the day is that somehow, without talking I was able to answer a question that I didn't have the answer to." "Where I buried the capsule?" "How did I know that, Walter?" "I didn't know that." "I didn't know where the cylinder was buried." " You know it, son, because I know it." " No, I didn't know because you didn't tell me." "I didn't have to." "You must adjust the way you consider communications, ideas." "Ideas can be absorbed through osmosis, through proximity." "You remember the night of the accident, when you were young?" " I was driving." " Of course I remember." " Your mother was at home." " I remember, Thanksgiving dinner." "She was anxious for us to get there, join everyone." "When the car went off the road, the ice was so thick that it held the vehicle for what must have been two minutes." "What does this have to do with what happened today?" "I regained consciousness, I saw your body contorted horribly." "I reached for you, but the ice broke and we sank into that dark water." "And then you swam to shore and saved us both." "I know." "No." "I was unable to control my limbs in that icy water." "They wouldn't respond." "I was incapable of saving you or myself." "We were dead, Peter, you and I." "Until someone grabbed me, and we were going up." "We were saved, the both of us, by a man that I had never met." "A man that shouldn't have been there at all." "He pulled us to the shore." "I remember that he was bald, that he had no eyebrows." "And as he set us down in the snow, I recall his stare." "Standing there in his suit, soaking wet, seemingly indifferent to the cold." "It was as if he knew my thoughts before I did as if he were inside my head." "Without speaking, he made it clear that he would need me one day." "A return favor, so to speak." "And this is it." "Today, what happened with the capsule..." "I'm not sure how I knew about the vibrations, the composition but then when I tested it myself, heard the vibrations, felt them it was as if an envelope had been opened and I could finally read my instructions." "Instantly, I knew I had to protect the capsule for him." "Who they are and what they want, as a man of science I share your frustration in not having these answers." "But what I know is that you are sitting here now." "My son, alive." "I know you must think me insane." "Not nearly as much as you might think." "Hello, Liv." "[ENGLISH SDH]"
