And that means

you guys are stuck with me, Mr. Aitken.

So, what will it be, ladies?

We have the American Civil War

or the anatomy of a cell?

[ALARM CLOCK BEEPING]

PETER:

Lorna?

[MOANS]

Lorna.

PETER:
Lorna.

What?

NARRATOR:

Lorna Michaelson.

Daughter of Hollywood producer

Isaac Michaelson...

...and Allie Bernard,

the British model turned actress.

Lorna was left to an unchaperoned

adolescence of movie premieres...

...and club openings.

Lorna had her first hangover at 12,

her first intervention at 16.

By 23 she was burnt out,

tired of playing entourage.

So Lorna cleaned up her act.

Tequila shots replaced with

wheatgrass shots.

But in the end, it was one addiction

traded for another.

PETER:

Lorna.

[LORNA GROANS]

Watch your head.

[SITAR MUSIC PLAYING OVER SPEAKER]

KLAUS:

Shake it out. Shake it out now.

You are fools.

Your muscles are tight

with repressed feelings.

Who you were before is irrelevant.

Let go of you, become the group.

I have to exhaust you people...

...to get you to stop thinking

and start breathing.

[BREATHES DEEPLY]

[ALL BREATHING DEEPLY]

JOANNE:

Don't be worried.

Maggie's tests will get harder.

But if you pass,

then you're meant to be with us.

Then you will be ready when it begins.

This is where we grow Maggie's food.

Go on, pick one.

MEL:

Okay.

Are you good?

Yeah, fine. Do it.

Just think about Maggie.

She's allergic to absolutely everything

in this time period.

You can eat these?

Of course you can, kiddo. Heh.

It's the grocery store

you've gotta be wary of.

Produce grown by

someone you've never met...

...sitting in trucks for weeks...

...sprayed with, I don't know,

who knows what.

Yeah, but these aren't

exactly natural either.

Well, true. But Maggie says

when prices go up...

...people will start growing gardens

in their garages.

We'll be all right though.

Maggie's taking us to a safe place.

Maggie? Are you dying?

Yeah.

So are you. So is PJ.

Joanne's dying. Peter's dying.

Lorna's dying.

Every life is a death.

And most deaths are suicides.

Some are more gradual than others,

like cancer after years of smoking.

Or in my case...

...traveling back in time

to save the people you love.

Even if you kiss him as you leave the room

And even if we don't say a word

In front of them

And even if we never get to show our friends

GARNER:
Is that Abigail Pritchett?

At least three episodes a week.

Maybe she has narcolepsy.

[CAR HORN HONKS]

DEWITT:

She's always in that hat.

[SPEAKING IN SPANISH]

Okay, I bring you some hot milk. Okay?

Can you look at me

for a second there, Lorna?

LORNA:

Hello, Peter.

Hmm.

Okay. Well, this transmitter records
