Original subtitles

It was just a normal day in Eureka. Day's not over yet.

Yeah, like that was gonna last.

Hello, 1947.

Confused? Let me clarify.

The five of us got transported back in time through some wormhole thingy thanks

to the bridge device.

We eventually found our way back home, but surprise, home wasn't exactly the

we left.

Henry? Married.

Zane and Joe? Never dated. But Joe's in charge of GD security.

Kevin? Different. Much to Allison's surprise. And Fargo? Had a global

Much to everyone's surprise.

Oh, and Dr. Oldspice hitched a ride with us back to the present, but there's one

crappy rule.

We can't tell anyone.

If people ever found out about our trip, there'd be trouble. Some of us had a

harder time with it than others.

I'm not your Henry.

Not yet.

It's way off target, and that's a residential area. That was Joe's house.

she's living with me for a while. And I finally kissed Allison 63 years ago.

But, of course, Dr. Charles Grant had to get in the way. At least let me buy you

a drink.

One drink.

Don't plan a wedding just yet.

Am I the best man I'm letting?

That's Eureka for you. Same town, big changes.

You know, I think I like the hair.

It's very mature.

Yeah, and it really sells the fake ID to the bars in Cambridge.

Skidding, unclenched.

Yeah. So when's Lucas come back from MIT?

He's not.

Internship in Geneva, which isn't a bad thing.

Oh, you guys having trouble?

That would make it a lot easier.

No, it's just he's a great guy, but, you know, college changes you. What you

want, who you want. Oh, and that's not hair boy.

You know, maybe what starts in the friend zone should stay in the friend

Sheriff? Hey, Zoe.

Hey, Fang.

Looking good.

Thanks.

Oh, that's my girl.

That's my girl.

Hey.

Wow.

Jenna's gotten so big. Allison seems so happy.

Yeah. Yes, she does.

Fresh baked cinnamon rolls, raisin free and icing rich.

Just the way you like it. Welcome home. Oh, thanks, Finn.

So good to be back.

I think I'll have one. Thanks. We'll see you later.

Okay, though, um, I think some of the greatest romances in history started in

the friend zone.

Like what? And TV characters do not count.

So, you ready for spa day?

I've got us both for Shangri -La facials and mani -pedi.

What? Shangri -La facials? Well, this doesn't happen by magic, my friend.

I can't wait.

So, what are you guys talking about?

Whether it's better to stay with someone safe but dull.

Or take a risk on someone new.

I think newer isn't always better.

You've already found someone new.

Is that obvious?

Well, nothing's happened yet. We've just been holoskyping. But he's funny and

smart and so hot. Yeah, and I think with my cue to leave, I'll meet you outside.

Funny,

smart.

And hot.

Sounds like a trifecta.

Yeah. I don't know. I mean, he's a little bit older. If he makes you happy,

for it.

Life's short.

And everything can change in a blink.

Oh, it's my contractor. Wait till you see the plans from my new house.

Zimmer, what's going on?

Let me get your coat. Thank you.

Gentlemen, always take street side.

Were all men as chivalrous in your day?

They wanted a chance with a gal like you, they were.

I say we need more men like you in 2010.

You know what we didn't have in my day?

Coffee like this.

I enjoyed the highballs the other night.

The drinks?

Oh, yes.

So did I. Thank you.

How about we go crazy next time and make a dinner?

Uh, well... Hey, guys.

Why aren't you catching up on 60 years of fun facts?

Because I find the present far more alluring.

That's great. Um, I need you. Police business.

Could take a while.

Oh, okay, sport.

Ladies, could we continue?

Police business?

All my business is police business.

So what's up, Carter?

Well, it's really more of a longer conversation.

Maybe you and I could grab a bite?

I just ate.

No, not... I just ate.

No, later. Like, say dinner?

Oh, okay,

well... Kevin's going to be a dray, and I have the nanny tonight. Yeah, sure.

What time?

Uh, say eight?

Yeah, that sounds good. Okay. Hey, Jenna.

Say goodbye to Carter. Say goodbye.

Bye!

Why'd it take me four years to do that?

Well, tell him if he doesn't move that thing today, I'll move it for him.

They haven't even poured the foundation for my house, which means I get to keep

living with both you and Sarah and her mechanical boyfriend. And, oh, my God, I

need my own space.

Mechanical boyfriend?

Sarah's been spending time with Deputy Andy.

Your house is getting more action than either of us.

I try not to think about it. So what's the holdup on the swinging new batch

flight pad?

Some pinhead named Thurgood found a fossil on the site and shut down

construction. Wait, Derek?

Derek. Who's Derek? Oh, Dr. Derek Thurgood. He taught my paleoanthropology

last year at Tesla. The guy's a genius.

Really?

Well, why don't you come and watch me kick his smart ass off my property?

What?

You don't know what a big deal this is. I'm sorry. You're going to have to give

us more time. You have had three days to move it. Well, I was working on it, but

this little intimidation stunt of yours isn't helping you.

Hey, Zoe, welcome back.

Congratulations, Derek. This is really cool.

Ah, really cool. So take your fancy laser shovel and haul it back to GD.

That's a delicate process and can't be rushed.

Besides, who knows what else we might find here.

What exactly did we find here?

The distal phalange of a 15 ,000 -year -old pre -Clovis culture hominid.

A pinky.

What, a tit?

That's a big deal, Dad. Come on.

Then remove it.

Well, I would, but Boss Lady Zimmer thought it would be funny to push me

Flashcrete.

Into what now?

Flashcrete. PVA -enhanced molecular bonded concrete.

Two seconds that time. And he fell into it.

I had a little help.

If I'd helped, you would have gone in faith first. All right, let's get

Jones out of the wall here. You got a chisel?

Come on.

Here. It's depolymerizing spray.

For the clumsy and irritating.

What about my house?

With the dojo and the firing range in the basement?

See for yourself.

In Eureka, scientific discovery always trumps construction.

It's in the town charter.

Smells of orange. Yeah, it's a solvent.

Dr. Fargo wanted this house fast -tracked. What am I supposed to do now?

Go home and brush up on local cynics.

I thought she'd never leave.

You know, Derek, if you have time, I'd love to see the distal phalange. Well,

I'd love to show it to you.

It's just over here.

Carter, you have to do something.

I know.

Are they flirting?

I meant about my house.

Great, it's 911 from Fargo.

All right, Fargo, what's the emergency?

You're running sonic protocols.

Big Brother could be eavesdropping. On what?

On me.

Seems my mug may have drawn some unwanted attention from the DOD.

They've been snooping around Dr. Grant's personnel file, the one I have

manufactured.

They know I falsified documentation. They may know that I'm not Charles

.D. historian, but Trevor Grant, G .D. history.

We could be in a lot of trouble.

Try sanctioned. We violated time travel protocol.

They're going to lock us up like lab rats.

I don't like the sound of that.

Forever.

Or that.

What's our play?

We trace the text directly to the source.

Hack the Pentagon. Are you insane? The DoD mainframe has dozens of firewalls

laced with info mines along every data path.

It's like trying to hack the Matrix.

Not as much as it pains me to say.

We need to get help from the One.

Working with Derek is a chance to be part of history.

You really want to hang with Mr. I found a pinky?

I thought you were joking on the spa.

Oh, she postponed.

You know, plus Derek and I have time at the AMS lab tomorrow to start carbon

dating. You know, that skeleton could be the oldest North American hominid ever

found.

So?

Speaking of dating, check you out. Thank you. Hold on. Photo op. Oh, your first

real date with Allison.

Oh, finally. This is big.

Oh, crap.

My phone's in my bag. I must have left it at the dig site.

I got time. I can run you over.

Great.

That's weird. Derek's car's still here.

Derek!

I think I left it in the pit.

Any chance there's just a really good statue of Thurgood?

No, there's definitely a person encased in there.

Preparing for autopsy, please.

It's so horrible.

You okay?

He was such an amazing teacher. He inspired everyone.

Wait, where are you going?

He would want everyone to focus on the find, so I'm going to go let everyone

know.

Well...

I've never seen anything like this before.

Yeah.

Or this.

Got a date?

Actually, yeah.

Dinner?

Oh!

Oh, oh, oh, you meant a date.

Yeah, I did.

I'm so sorry. I just wasn't expecting... Really?

Look, we've got to focus, shall we? Yeah, you're right.

Oh, okay.

So it looks like Thurgood was dropped in a vat of cement.

Or pushed in. I'll go check with Zimmer.

And change out of my club.

Oh, my God.

His heart's beating.

Carter, he's still alive in there.

Sheriff, I told you before, I'd never use flashcrete on a person.

Except when you did.

Okay, but not on a person's entire person.

And tell me again what you did after I left yesterday.

My crew cleaned up the site and then cleared out.

Thurgood was still mucking about in his pit when we went back to the warehouse,

I swear.

Hey, hey, hey!

Well,

you're not going to leave me in here, are you? On what charges?

Probable cause.

Just because. Take it back.

It's, uh, beautiful, Henry.

What's the occasion?

You and me.

A new beginning. And I've got everything here. I've got plantain, Caribbean

sautéed pork, and Vincent's famous sangria.

All my favorites.

Something wrong?

No, no, it's perfect.

Um, recreating our first date was a lovely idea.

He did this to, um, other Henry.

I'm sorry, Grace. I didn't know.

How could you?

But really, Henry, I love this.

Come on.

Let's have some sangria.

Not to worry.

My flash creep solvent is like elixir of the gods. It works miracles on skin.

It's our most popular treatment at the Shangri -La spa. It takes only seconds.

Dr. Bicelli, it's been seconds with no improvement.

In fact, whatever he's covered with is getting thicker.

Yeah.

I'm afraid that this one is kind of out of my league.

I mean, your situation, I can help.

You mean the situation of my face?

I'm sorry. I do that. It's part of the job. I mean, really.

You look great.

But, you know, in five years... Prep for laser surgery. Let's get this stuff off

of him before it kills him.

That's a good idea.

Sonic Protocol.

This just gets curiouser and curiouser. Less talking, more typing.

You know, it might help us, Midge, if you tell me what I'm looking for. Just

in first. The DOD uses an application gateway.

You know, I could get in a lot of trouble for this.

I think I deserve a fair trade for my services.

So, who wants to start the bidding, hmm?

You're trying to play a sport?

I just think a little compensation for my particularly awesome set of illegal

skills is in order.

Zane, I know it's a stretch, but if you could try not to be a selfish jackass.

I really could use a new quantum fluctuation generator.

Fine. Now get on with it.

You're the boss.

I'll start by cutting 0 .5 millimeters.

Hold on.

Is that a tattoo?

Looks like an...

His skin isn't covered in concrete. It is concrete.

Please, help me.

Oh, my God.

I don't know, but they're both alive and petrifying from the outside in. Well,

how does it affect their clothes?

Well, you remember the woman who was fused to the fabric of her couch after

sitting there for six years?

No. I mean, wait, who?

Well, it's like that, but much faster.

Well, that's disgusting. Well, at the rate that it's moving inward, it's only

matter of hours before their vital organs solidify.

Even less for Derek.

How does that happen? More detail.

Well, in theory, any organic material can be converted into minerals through

impregnation by a silicate like quartz.

Okay. Okay.

Um... Uh -huh.

Eh!

Carter, what are you doing?

The main ingredient in Flashcrete is silica.

Ice work construction.

I'm good with my hands. Carter, Flashcrete's been used safely in

over Eureka. Well, maybe somebody rejiggered the formula.

Dr. Zimmer does have a Ph .D. in materials engineering.

Bad news, Dr. Zimmer. You've got the problem caused to... Don't.

Well? Well, if you're lucky that you found her, she's okay.

Well, she's not okay, but she's not dead.

Yeah.

I have the analysis you asked for. If there's anything else I can do, please.

Oh, my.

What?

Sorry, nothing.

Here.

Please, first treatment's on me.

Oh, wow.

Carter, the Flashcrete is just Flashcrete. Same formula as always.

No rejiggering or... None. The flash treat is not causing the fossilization.

Wait, I thought you said these guys were petrifying.

Carter, petrification is a form of fossilization.

I think we might be blaming the wrong guy.

Hmm.

Interesting.

Interesting? It's not supposed to be interesting.

Well, the people checking up on you are real badasses.

Who are we talking, NSA, CIA?

Worse.

IRS.

Seriously, who claims 11 dependents?

What? Yeah, accounting flagger W -4.

The D .O .D., accounting department.

They're the ones poking around in your file?

That's supposed to be a one, not an 11.

Larry.

So, anything else you want to know while I'm in there?

Launch codes, defense plans, TARDIS blueprints, what?

Oh, and Doc, you might want to fill out your own paperwork next time.

I'll do that, thank you.

Nice doing business with you, Fargo.

Hey, Dad.

Maybe not as well as I thought.

Check this out.

Oh, yeah, I don't know what that is. Well, I'm pretty sure that means it's

pre -Clovis hominid phalange, which would mean that I might know what's

Derek to petrify.

Do you think you can get me into his home lab?

Well, nothing out of the ordinary.

Unless you count all of it.

So, uh, what are you looking for, exactly?

Derek's perm solution.

Derek's perms.

Well, maybe he's the next to his European man person.

Perm is in permineralization.

What's it do, exactly?

No sign of quartz in your cellular walls.

So she's okay then?

Yes, along with the rest of the archaeological team.

Great.

I can't believe Derek was trying to pull a pilt down.

A what down now?

Well, Thurgood's skeleton was a pilt down man. An ape -like skeleton found in

England in 1912.

Turned out to be a hoax.

So the skeleton isn't real?

Well, it's not really old.

It looked old.

Yeah, that's the point.

The perm solution, it introduces silica and calcite, and it does it super fast.

We used it in Derek's class to study the process of fossilization.

Yeah, but a skeleton treated with perm would never stand up to radiometric

dating. Well, yeah, unless Derek tweaked the photon emissions rate.

The quartz in the skeleton that he found didn't look right, so I measured it.

It was like perm on steroids.

So we rejiggered the perm. I mean, I knew someone rejiggered something.

But now that we know that... Thurgood's perm is the culprit.

I may be able to synthesize an anti -serum to reverse the effects.

Question. How come some people at the site got fossilized and others didn't?

Like Zoe.

I don't know. Maybe a genetic predisposition or an allergic reaction.

I'll have the archaeological lab closed off, test anyone who came in contact

with it at the site. Great. I'll head over there and quarantine the perm. Can

talk to you for a second?

Look,

I know this has been tough on you, so...

Why don't you get away for a little while?

To the spa?

I can't go now. Look, I know there's nothing you can do. It would make me

better, and by the time you get back, Derek will probably be his old,

fraudulent, flesh -colored self.

How can you be so sure?

Well, I can't, but Allison's working on it.

Thanks.

So what now? Well, the computer's running panels on how to reverse

perm's effects.

Uh, an antidote?

Well, that's the hope.

Great. Give me...

Um, hey, could, uh, can I have it for you?

Um, when Grant asked you out, did you think that was a

date?

Well,

yeah, sure.

You've never asked me for a date.

B, you kissed me and acted like it never happened.

I mean, I know, you know, you had to come back to test, but seriously, it's

over a month. And C... You ever think about the kiss?

It's been over 60 years. I don't know who can remember.

You thought about it?

Carter, go set up the quarantine.

Yes, ma 'am.

Are you dead?

The soil definitely runneth over with modified perm.

Must have leached from the treated skeleton into the surrounding area.

That's it. We ready?

All right, hold on.

Consider the area quarantined. Great. Thanks. You're welcome.

Sorry for pulling you away from Grace.

No, you didn't. She went out.

Beach Blank Bingo wasn't a hit?

No, it was. Both times. It turns out that I took her on the exact same first

date as the Henry from her timeline.

No. She was okay with that? No, no. She was wonderful.

I just want to give her the passion and surprises that she deserves.

But, you know, anything I come up with, you know, he's probably already done.

It's hard to win a girl when you're competing against yourself.

Exactly. So what do you think I should do?

Well, um, you can find the person you'd be least likely to go to for advice and

ask them. I thought that's what I was doing.

I was right into that.

Mm -hmm.

Thanks, Dad. Good luck.

Hmm.

I can't relax.

Derek is in the best hands possible.

Trust me.

I'm really glad you were here, Grace.

Yeah, me too.

All right, so tell me all about Harvard.

Guys, grades, I want all the gossip.

Grades are good.

Guys are complicated.

Guys, as in someone new?

He's not exactly new.

I needed help with a physics model last semester.

He totally knew how to use an Ornstein -Zernike equation in molecular

structure theory.

Okay, that is hot.

Right? It's that rush you get when you're first getting to know someone,

know? Yeah.

Too bad you can't have both.

Yeah.

Too bad.

What happened? Derek's system is shutting down. I'm losing him. I thought

were on to something with the perm. Well, so did I.

The new compound didn't reverse the petrification. It just slowed it down.

But you're partially right, right?

Well, they're good, and the others must have been exposed to some sort of

bioactivator, something that changed the perm in some way. I'm guessing there's

lots of those. I'm going to have to cross -reference everything in your

see if I can find a match.

Every... Do they have that sort of time?

The others maybe, but Derek...

All right, Zoe.

Maybe she knows that they have something in common.

Zoe. Hey.

Hey. Can I talk to you for a second?

Yeah.

I was just wondering... Okay,

yeah, we'll talk about it later.

Sheriff?

The same.

Zoe. Finn?

He's the new guy?

Well, I know what you're thinking, but he's really sweet once you get to know

him. When did you get to know him?

Just give it a chance. No!

He's a train wreck. I just asked Joe.

Joe? Why would I ask her? Those two hate each other. Because of his poor work

ethic.

Which... Look, um, we can discuss this later. Okay, Allison needs our help.

Dad? Look, something activated the perm. We need to find out what it is before

more people are affected. Come on.

Dad! What? What?

It's too late.

I can't feel my hand.

It's all over me. Just look at me, okay? You stay with me. You're gonna be okay,

alright? You're gonna be okay.

Damn! What's wrong?

It's blocked.

What?

Stay with me.

Look at me, all right? Just look at my eyes.

Still might be able to get into the subclavian artery.

When you become a doctor, never do that.

All right, sweetie. You're going to get sleepy. Just relax.

But we will find one, okay? Just stay with her.

Lupo!

You going somewhere?

Just grabbing some stuff for Carter in case he spends the night with Zoe.

Is she okay?

I hope so.

I gotta go. No, wait.

I pulled something off the DOD mainframe you need to see.

It's Grant's personnel file.

Two felonies in one day.

Impressive. Yeah, not as impressive as his profile.

It's a fake.

What makes you think that?

Come on, when you've created as many aliases as I have, you know what to look

for. Dr. Charles Grant reads like a textbook cover job.

Chuck's hiding something.

Like what?

I don't know. You're the head of security. Don't you want to find out?

Zane, Grant went through detailed background checks like everyone at GED.

them myself.

Look, I know we've had our trust issues, but something isn't right about this

guy. I can feel it.

He is Dr.

Charles Grant.

Historian.

Trust me.

Look, I really gotta go.

Didn't know you tickled the ivories.

Oh, this was there for you in the mail room, Dr. Grant. I thought I'd deliver

to you personally.

Thanks.

Leave it over there.

You know, all I got was a paperweight when I started working here.

Not that it isn't practical. I just would have preferred an iTablet or... Or

Cheval Nuit from 1947.

Let me see that.

You know, they say it's not healthy to drink alone.

But I'm available to hang out.

Like I do.

Right.

You're busy.

Everyone always is.

We've tested hundreds of potential bioactivators. Nothing has reacted with

permits, like looking for a needle in a haystack.

We need to narrow it down.

Well, Allison, you gave Zoe a clean bill of health earlier.

I know. I'm sorry. I'm trying to figure it out. I'm not blaming you, but if Zoe

was fine then, then she obviously came in contact with the bioactivator since

then.

Well, we need to find out everything that she was exposed to in the last

of hours, and that would narrow it down.

Well, I know where to look.

Yeah? Okay, we've got to go.

I believe that Zoe had the Shangri -La special.

Ah, yes.

Molecular steam bath mani -pedi. Deep penetration for all skin types. It's

refreshing. Yeah, I smell orange. Yeah, look at the construction site.

Well, you have a very keen nose.

With, unfortunately, roomy pores. But we have treatments for that.

Thanks. Do you use flashcrete solvent?

On the face? No, never.

The solvent is a derivative of my hand dip. The active ingredient in both is

limonene. It's excellent for purifying the skin. Were Zoe's hands dipped in the

limonene? Oh, yes, of course. It's part of the Shangri -La experience.

The Zimmer circuit and the crew all used limonene solvent at the site. All

right, we're going to need a sample of that.

Now. Okay.

Thank you. Thank you.

Allison,

hey, please tell me you have some good news.

Limonene was the bioactivation agent we were looking for.

I'm sensing a butt in there somewhere.

The antidote needs to be absorbed directly into the skin.

So put it in a cream and slather it on.

The petrification process has closed off Zoe's pores.

So we have a cure, but no way to deliver it?

Not yet.

All this technology and no way to give her the cure.

Yeah, but she's still breathing. Can't she just inhale it? No, the cure must be

directly applied to the skin.

But petrified tissue is porous on a microscopic level. If we could just take

advantage of that somehow.

Well, Vicelli said that her molecular steam penetrates all skin types.

Molecular steam might be small enough to penetrate.

And if we aerosolize, the cure of Vicelli might be able to deliver it.

That's it. Hurry. Come on, Joe.

Okay. Hang on, Joe. We're going to help you.

Okay.

That's it. The system's ready. Okay. Here we go. Initiating steam.

10 % absorption.

50 % absorption.

80 % absorption.

How can we tell if it's working?

Well, not soon enough.

We tried everything we could.

Jack, I'm so sorry.

Hi. Hi.

Oh, wow.

Petrification does awesome things for your skin.

Too bad about the whole almost dying part.

Yeah. It was almost, right, Derek?

Yeah. Yeah, he's fine.

And the others, too.

It's quite a homecoming, huh?

Sure wasn't dull.

No. How we doing?

Well, we're not garden statuary anymore.

Well, that's a good start.

I'm going to keep you here for another day just as a precaution.

Man, don't even think about arguing.

If it avoids being grilled about my love life, I'm off line.

Don't count on it.

I'll be right back.

I don't know how to thank you.

I'm just happy everything worked out okay.

Wow. I wouldn't say all okay.

What's Ayn doing here?

Apparently he and Zoe...

Since when?

Since we changed stuff.

Oh, could this get any worse?

Hey, how's our girl? She's good. Yeah.

I'm going to be sick.

Come on.

She asked my advice about her new guy.

Her new guy is my old guy. I know, I know. You must be really upset, and you

probably want to kill him. In normal circumstances, I'd help you.

Okay, but you're not okay with this. No.

No, I'm not okay with this.

And I keep telling myself that it's a crush, and that it's not going to last.

What if it does?

I gotta go.

Okay.

Henry, um, listen.

About lunch today... It's poetry in motion.

You turned your tender eyes to me.

As deep as any ocean.

As sweet as any harmony.

What is going on? You blinded me with science.

You blinded me!

Team effort.

You know, Zoe said that what starts in the friend zone should just

stay in the friend zone.

Trevor Grant.

How do you know my name?

I've known your name my whole life.

I believe you knew my father, Adam, back in 1947.

Who are you?

My name is Beverly Barlow.

And we've been waiting a very long time for you.
