Episode Summary:
A group of dead victims is found on a train, and Olivia is able to identify a suspect, Alistair Peck, who is an astrophysics professor at MIT. When Alistair's house is raided, the team discovers very complex notes and calculations related to the fundamental nature of time. Alistair returns home during their investigation, and promptly activates a time travel device to jump back in time, starting the sequence of events again. Over the course of several time jumps, Walter is eventually able to understand what is occurring and directly confronts Alistair in an attempt to dissuade him from his ultimate goal of traveling back several months to the day his fiance died.
