Is our history altered by time travelers? Future Lucy seems as though she might have created the events she set out to stop - how much Rittenhouse control is in play in all these time travel machinations?ĩ. Finally, there’s the question of whether all these time travel alterations were predestined. It also suggests Flynn and the Time Team might not be the only active time travelers out there. That suggests there’s at least one other, third timeline, that gave Old Lucy all her information. But Flynn has Lucy’s diary that tells him where to go and what to do. Is she going to become some kind of time travel prophet? Or just be doomed to a life of constantly hopping timelines like Eric Bana in “The Time Traveler’s Wife?”Īs “Timeless” unfolds, the characters jump through time and change history, altering events the audience knows in subtle ways. In the background, we see the Golden Gate Bridge flicker, flipping between now and, according to show creator Eric Kripke, the year it was built. In the finale, Jiya (Claudia Doumit) has a seizure after being the one-too-many in the Lifeboat time machine. But at the end of Season 2, Rittenhouse has seemingly won - so did Lucy create the future she was trying to prevent? Seems likely.Īlso Read: Top 20 Best Netflix Original Series, Ranked From Great to Phenomenal (Photos) It’s pretty obvious, then, that Lucy travels back from a future point to give the diary to Flynn so he could beat Rittenhouse.


In the finale, he tells Lucy she ages well. What’s the deal with Old Lucy and the diary?įlynn has been referencing Lucy’s diary all season, which she gives him in the future. Season 2 will definitely tell us more about her involvement, but going back to “What’s Rittenhouse’s deal” - what’s Lucy’s mom’s deal? What does she gain through her Rittenhouse involvement, especially in the timeline in which she was sick?Ħ. She was also aware of time travel and Rittenhouse’s master history alteration plan. Lucy’s mom Carol (Susanna Thompson) revealed herself as a Rittenhouse member in the finale. But given how everyone is a Rittenhouse agent in Lucy’s life, could Noah pop up again? She basically ignored him until the finale, when his doctor skills became useful, then broke up with him. Lucy also gained a fiance named Noah (Daniel DiTomasso). When Lucy (Abigail Spencer) got back from the Hindenburg mission, her sister had vanished from changes to the timeline.

She captured the Mothership for the group in the finale - or did she? Emma (Annie Wersching) was supposedly hiding out from Rittenhouse in the past, but that seems like some extremely deep cover for a mole no one might ever find. Hopefully there’s more to the evil organization, especially now that it seems like Rittenhouse is about to remake history however it wants.Įmma, the missing time machine pilot Flynn (Goran Visnjic) found with Jesse James, turned out to be a Rittenhouse mole. Okay, Rittenhouse is an evil Illuminati-like organization, but what is their actual agenda? It seems like their primary goal is to become, or stay, an all-powerful shadow government, but that seems pretty thin.


Here are all the questions burning up our brains for if and when “Timeless” comes back to continue the story.

Are there multiple Lucys? Will Wyatt ever save his wife? What’s the deal with Rittenhouse, actually?Īlso Read: 'Timeless' Lives! NBC Renews Series for Season 2 After Initial Cancellation “Timeless” has suggested some very interesting things about how time travelers might have already changed history. There are also some interesting sci-fi puzzles to deal with in Season 2. Flynn’s in custody, Rittenhouse has the Mothership, and secret villains are revealed.
