September: The guy who watches over Walter and Peter.
August: Devolops human feelings for a little girl, and "Makes her Important". (This had not happened yet, from our perspective of Time, in this episode).
December: Seems to be the Boss, probably why his name is the Last Month of the year.
March: We met him in Season 4 in the Orange Fringe 'Verse, he seemed like a snotty sycophant.
The other guy from this ep- "John Mosley" (Michael Kelly) - A Rogue Observer? He seems to have the same abilities. Except that he can't vanish like September can.
Hard to write a retrospective review of this, without spoilers.
From what we know of these guys now, they see time in a certain way, they know what is going to happen. Or what could happen. This ep deals with a our Season 1 Observer, "September" - Who gets the job of making sure "It" (we did not know that this suppository shaped torpedo was actually a beacon at this time) arrives and departs "on Schedule"- However The Observers deal with a Schedule.
But Peter has had it and wants to move on. Although Olivia entreats him to stay, Peter is just not having it. Walter is not helping, but Walter is of course acting with another Agenda that we don't know about.
This Ep shows the first connection between Walter and September, and there is a connection and a big one. We just don't know how big yet, but it's Major.
What did the Rogue guy want, just to take a ride on a Subterranian Torpedo? Seems to me, that world-ending phenomena would have ensued.
In retrospect I have developed a kind of theory about this guy. Apparently, he has been around long enough to have met Peter's grandfather, who according to this episode passed away before the end of World War II. That means that this person has been wandering around the 20th and 21st centuries for over 50 years or more. We also know from the last episode of the series, that observers who are going to take time jaunts need to be injected with some goop so that they can use their brain-time-machines. Which is probably why they cannot touch the beacons. But Mosley picks it up and runs with it. I don't remember if he covered it up first or if he is actually touching it, I think he may have covered it up, time to watch it again. Nope- he touches it.
But consider, if he came from the future and was trapped, maybe the gadget in the back of his brain, the same that Peter stole and crammed into his own brain in season five, had stopped working and he was trapped and maybe his goal was simply to use the beacon to get home (although I doubt it)- And his injection had worn off after 50 years, then maybe he would be able to touch the beacon. But since this little story was never really resolved completely, and they never returned to it to explain, we don't really know who Mosley was or what he was doing or what he even wanted. Also, the guy is cocky all through the episode, until he runs into Olivia, and then he actually looks scared. What the...? Maybe he had foreseen his little encounter with Olivia, and he already knew the outcome.
