Overview
Walter thinks the abduction of a young music prodigy is linked back to his old bunkmate at St. Claire's Hospital. When he kidnaps the child he sees a sequence of flashing lights. Olivia wants Walter to return to the mental institution much to Peter's outcry, but Walter's determination to help ends up having chilling ramifications.

00:05:36 Think you might be able to jog your mind, Walter?
00:07:13 This is the day I took him home from the hospital.
00:09:12 My mom's dead.
00:11:03 during which stage the child was abducted.
00:12:58 So then it's possible that she survived.
00:14:22 Walter remembers Kim telling him a story...

00:19:40 I love you too, Bean.
00:21:21 You've assured me that Walter Bishop is doing fine.
00:23:52 Well, are you ready?
00:26:46 I'm sorry.

00:37:34 You listen. You answer me.
00:39:05 both to himself and to others.

00:48:15 Good work.
