September quotes from Fringe

You were right. They don't remember Peter.

How could they? He never existed. He served his purpose.

Mister, I think I found what you're looking for. Electron gun from a 58-R RCA. I had to take apart the cathode ray tube to get to it, so I'm going to have to charge you full price for the TV.

September

Yes. [holds up red switch] I will take this as well.

Mind my asking what you need all this stuff for?

September

I need to erase someone from time.

Olivia

[Alarmed, having suddenly noticed an Observer, draws her gun and begins speaking simultaneously with September. ] Who are you? Show me your hands! How did you -- stop doing that! Who the hell are you?

September

I have come to tell you something, Olivia.

Olivia

How did you know my name? How do you know my -- [notices a chest wound] You've been shot.

September

I came to tell you I have looked at all possible futures, and in every one the result is the same: you have to die.

Peter

It's not Nina working for them that worries me. I've been wracking my brain, why would Nina be dosing Olivia with cortexiphan? Then it occurred to me: the only person who's ever done anything like that, at least in my timeline, is David Robert Jones. Maybe he's trying to do the same thing again.

Walter

Do what?

Peter

Activate Olivia.

Walter

For what purpose?

Peter

I don't know. We could never figure it out, but maybe it's for the same reasons now.

September

[having appeared out of thin air] Yes. His goal is the same. [collapses]

Peter

[rushes to September's side] You! Talk to me! What do you know about David Robert Jones? What do you know about Olivia?

September

She needs you.

September

In my desire to witness the moment, I inadvertently distracted him from discovering it.

Peter

I already know all that. Walter told me, but what were you doing there?

September

It was important. You are important. It was why I could not allow you to drown at the bottom of Reiden Lake. It was necessary to allow the other Dr. Bishop to cure you instead. Despite my efforts to set things right, these actions only culminated to further corruption of the timeline. The war between the two universes, drastically altered destinies, brought about a child that was not meant to be.

Peter

What child?

September

Your son: Henry.

Peter

My what?

September

He was born to the wrong Olivia Dunham, due to a series of circumstances that never should have happened. This event would have irrevocably altered everything that was to come.

Peter

Henry. [smiles] I have a son.

September

Had. When you made the sacrifice to step into that machine, you were not the only one that ceased to exist; so would he. I believed at the time that would be the end of it. I can't explain, but it is clear that I was wrong. You have managed to return to physical form. I suspect this will provide an opportunity to set things right. She is the one. The Olivia Dunham from whom your shared future was meant to spring. This must be, and everything will be as it was intended. You must find a way. [becomes distracted] They are coming. You need to go.

Peter

What's happening?

September

There is no time. I am going to need you to do something for me.

Peter

I'm not doing anything until you tell me where to find Olivia.

September

For that you have only to go home.

Peter

I have tried everything that I can think of, everything that I know how to do to get back home, and none of it has worked. Nobody here can help me, but you can. I know you can. Please help me get back home.

September

You have been home all along.

Peter

I don't understand. I was erased.

September

There is no scientific explanation, but I have a theory. Based on an uniquely human principle, I believe you could not be fully erased because the people who care about you would not let you go, and you would not let them go. I believe you call it love.

Peter

And Olivia?

September

She is your Olivia.

Olivia

At least now we know how you got shot. I've seen you shot before just like this. You came to me at the opera house. You said in every version of the future I would have to die.

September

I did not. Or I have not yet. I suspect I understand now. The conversation you are referring to has not yet happened for me. I must investigate the future and find out what I meant. I hope I get back to you in time.
