Witness (episode)

*For the actual Witness, see Olivia.*

## Cast Information

"**Witness**" is the tenth episode and third season finale of *12 Monkeys* that premiered on May 21, 2017. It is also the thirty-sixth episode overall.

## Synopsis

Every imaginable threat descends upon Railly and Cole. With Titan looming - and ally fighting ally - The Witness finds himself on the threshold of destiny.

## Production Notes

* The season finale concluded night three as the third and final episode.
* Series co-creator Terry Matalas confirmed a few points in interviews and Twitter comments in the aftermath of the Season 3 finale marathon:
	+ Athan Cole never was the Witness - the one shown in earlier seasons, communicating to followers via the House of Cedar and Pine and red tea leaves, possessing Cassie, etc. Athan *could* have been the Witness but after his redemption chose not to be. But there wasn't an alternate timeline in which he was the Witness, which then changed to it being Olivia - it was *always* Olivia, and Athan mistook his visions of the Witness to be his future self.
	+ Mallick staged the attack on Olivia's camp that mortally wounded Ramse's son Sam, in collusion with Olivia. They were both in on it - all a Machiavellian plan to motivate Ramse to want to kill the Witness - which in turn would motivate James Cole into doing what she wanted. Olivia took Sam and raised him for years with the express purpose of killing him later to fulfill her goals. Everything that transpired was according to her plan - *except* that Athan would both survive and choose to reject his role as the Witness, then come back to save everyone. Olivia thought she would kill Athan-the-Witness to take his place, but in truth she *always was* the Witness.
	+ Jennifer Goines has been prominently repeating the mantra "Climb the stairs, ring the bell" based on her time visions. Matalas pointed out that she has been saying this since Season 1 ("Shonin"), and it means something.
	+ Matalas posted a photo of James Cole's birth certificate: he was born in Pennsylvania, his father's full name is Matthew Cole, and his mother's full name is Marion Woods.

1987

## Events

**1987** was the earliest year to which a splinter was executed. After attempting to make time ravel impossible, Ramse forced the staff at the Temporal Facility to send him back in time without knowing when he was going. He ended up in 1987. Cole met Leland Goines but the subject of their conversation is unknown because Goines was killed in "Splinter" and the slingshot has not yet occurred in Cole's timeline.
Sebastien

## Relationships

Athan Cole (ward)

Sebastien was one of the Army of the 12 Monkeys' Guardians assigned to raise and protect the baby Athan Cole when he was sent back in time to grow up in his cycle as the Witness.

In addition to protecting Athan, Sebastien was also his teacher, responsible for educating him in many subjects including language, mathematics, history, and more. Of all the Guardians, he is shown to have the closest relationship with Athan. As he spends more time with Athan, he starts to doubt "whether the child must grow into the man" (the Witness of the future). In order to protect Athan, he even starts to conceal certain prophetic drawings (ones depicting James Cole holding him at gunpoint), though these drawings are eventually discovered by Magdelena, who threatens Sebastien if he does anything like that again.

During the splinter team's raid on the safehouse in 1953, Sebastien runs into Jennifer Goines, who lets him and Athan go. They eventually run into James, Athan's father, who shoots Sebastien, despite his attempts to persuade him that he doesn't believe Athan must become the Witness of the future. While James holds his son at gunpoint, unable to prove the trigger, Sebastien regains consciousness and is able to splinter himself and Athan away to an unknown time.

In this time period, Sebastien is shown to be the one who inspires Athan to write down his Primary thoughts as a way to make sense of them, in what will ultimately become the Word of the Witness, a key artifact of the Army.

Sebastien eventually has a falling out with Athan when he tries to bring Athan back to Titan without his knowledge. His intention was to bring back Athan as a version of the Witness who is a benevolent man, rather than as the world-ending prophet. When Athan discovers his deception, he feels betrayed and splinters away.

They don't meet up again until after Sebastien's death 20 years later at Red Death Ball, when he is shot by Jones and Deacon while covering James and Cassie's escape.
The Beginning Part 2

**"The Beginning Part 2"** is the series finale of *12 Monkeys*. The episode serves as the eleventh episode of the fourth season, and forty-seventh episode overall. It is also the second part of the two-part finale.

## Synopsis

When all hope is lost, Cole must complete his cycle so that his younger self will one day arrive at the end with the answer.

## Cast

### Starring

* Aaron Stanford as James Cole
* Amanda Schull as Cassandra Railly
* Todd Stashwick as Theodore Deacon
* Emily Hampshire as Jennifer Goines
* Barbara Sukowa as Katarina Jones

### Guest Starring

* Kirk Acevedo as José Ramse

* Peter Dacunha as Young Sam
* James Callis as Athan
* Murray Furrow as Dr. Lasky
* Romina D'Ugo as Max
* Michael Rhoades as Arlen Wills
* Isys Alexis as Daughter Isys

## Trivia

* This episode close all the last remaining questions of the show, revealing that the Annapurna remains was the body of Olivia, and Cassandra's full message to Cole.
	+ The audio recording that Cassandra left is an example of a causality loops. Cole received a message in the future and seek for her in the past, chasing the Army of the 12 Monkeys, starting his many time travels, and in the end Cassandra goes back to her time to leave the message for Cole to find, to make sure that the chain of event will happen.
* A lot of questions and confusion have come from a mistake in the subtitles when Deacon shows up and rescues Cole and Ramse from the onslaught of the 12 Monkeys Faithful Army. The line in the subtitles says "Who are you two?" but what he actually says is "But you two". In 2043 Deacon already knew Cole and Ramse, even to the point that he was actively searching for them at that time to exact revenge on them for leaving the West VII.
Raritan National Laboratory

The **Temporal Facility** was the facility housing the time machine. It was located in a windowless area of a ruined laboratory and was the headquarters of Project Splinter. It was located within probable walking distance of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The Temporal Facility had once been the Raritan National Laboratory, a leading scientific center for temporal research.

While there is no "Raritan National Laboratory" in real life, Raritan Bay is a major geographic location separating New York from New Jersey. Given that other references put the installation relatively near locations such as Philadelphia and upstate New York, it appears that the Temporal Facility is somewhere in the general New Jersey area.

## Timeline

### 2015

At this time, the Raritan National Laboratory was the only research center in the world that focused on the science of quantum splintering. Katarina Jones worked there on highly theoretical research regarding the effects of time on human cells.

Elliot Jones was also working at Raritan and had developed a prototype time machine that could send objects forward in time, but not back. He gave José Ramse, who had invested heavily in the time-travel project, full and unsupervised access to the machine; Ramse planned to use the machine to return to his son in 2043. James Cole and Cassandra Railly broke into Raritan and confronted Ramse, and Railly and Ramse were both shot. Ramse gave the gravely wounded Railly his dose of the time-travel drug so that Cole could use the machine to send her to Jones in 2043 for treatment.
Word of the Witness

The **Word of the Witness** is a massive sketch filled with timelines and notes about Cole, Cassie, Jennifer, and others. It includes years of major events, dates of birth and death, and miscellaneous notes about significant pieces of information. It appears to be a guide for the Army of the 12 Monkeys.

## History

### 1879

The Word of the Witness is written by Athan Cole in London. As a young man, he struggles with the visions he sees as a result of being Primary. At the urging of his guardian, Sebastian, Athan chooses to put all of his visions down on paper, resulting in the Word of the Witness, called such because at the time, the Army of the 12 Monkeys, and even Athan himself, believed him to be The Witness.

### 1961

The Word of the Witness is in the possession of Dr. Albert Kirschner in East Berlin, Germany. Ramse notices a reference to Titan in the top right corner of the sketch. Moments before splintering, he tears off the coordinates in an effort to find and kill The Witness.

### 1960s - 1989

In an unknown year, the Army flee Germany but could not leave the Word behind. Afraid to move the document via official channels, they smuggle the manifesto in the frame of an antique painting called "Constance." However, the painting is stolen and lost to the Army for decades.

### 1989

The painting of Constance resurfaces at an auction house. Cassie, Cole, Jennifer, and Deacon arrive at the auction house with the intent of stealing the document. However, they need to keep causality intact, and allow Olivia to purchase the document. Therefore, their heist involves photocopying the Word and returning it to the painting without a trace of their presence. While Jennifer is photocopying the Word, she intentionally covers up information that reveals Athan is Cassie and Cole's son. After the heist, Olivia purchases the painting and brings it to the mansion.

### 1990

Cassie brings the photocopies of the Word to her mother, a prominent psychologist, for help interpreting it. Cassie's ultimate goal is to save her son.

### 2016

Jennifer Goines stumbles upon the Word in the mansion and sees the date of her own death.

### 2046

The team returns from 1989 with copies of the Word, which gives them prominent leads in their hunt of Athan.

Deacon struggles with personal feelings on inadequacy after realizing he is the only member of the team not mentioned in the Word, nor in any of Jennifer's visions.

## Significant Revelations

* Jennifer Goines will die on September 23, 2044.
* In 2045, Titan is located at coordinates in Colorado.
* Athan Cole is conceived outside of time in the House of Cedar and Pine by Cassandra Railly and James Cole
* Athan Cole attends a recruiting event in December 1953.
* References to prominent artists, such as Beethoven and Van Gogh, among other notes, indicate to Dr. Railly that Athan is troubled and uncertain, potentially even resisting his "purpose."
* Sebastian dies in 1899 at the Red Death Masquerade, labeled "The Red Death - Two pence for a pauper" on the Word.

Hyenas

"Hyena"

The **Hyenas** were a group of women that were recruited by Jennifer Goines from the J. D. Peoples Mental Hospital to destroy the Army of the 12 Monkeys. She called them Hyenas because (Jennifer claimed) the hyena is the natural predator of the monkey.

Ultimately the Hyenas were sort of a proto-version of the survivor group that Jennifer founded after the plague, the Daughters.

Hannah's death serves as the primary motivator for Jones to invent time travel and attempt to undo the plague.

### Season 2

Following the timeline change that results in the virus being delayed, Hannah is a young girl living at Spearhead with her mother in 2020. She becomes mortally ill and is thought to have contracted the plague, but Railly and Cole, who had splintered to 2020 only to be trapped in a temporal loop, discover that she is suffering from meningitis and that it was Colonel Foster's policy of not treating plague victims that had resulted in her death. Railly saves Hannah; however, in order to break the temporal loop and ensure that Jones starts Project Splinter, she and Cole allow Jones to think Hannah is dead and give the girl to the Daughters to raise in secret.

After returning from 2020, Cole and Railly explain how they escaped the temporal loop by letting Jones think Hannah was dead. They then meet with the Daughters and reunite the adult Hannah with Jones.

Hannah accompanies the Daughters and the Project Splinter members on the search for Titan. She scouts the supposed location of Titan, and reports that there is nothing there. She is part of the group that infiltrate Titan and is killed in an ambush by the Witness's acolytes.

Hannah is brought back to life yet again after Cassie, Cole, and Jones arrive and stop the ambush before it happens.

## Trivia

* When Cassie and Cole meet a younger Katarina in November 2015, she is in early stages of pregnancy with Hannah. This would make it so that Hannah was born in 2016, though exactly when is not shown/mentioned.
* In the episode Lullaby, when we first meet Hannah, she is 27/28 years old.

## Appearances

 "Immortal"
 "**Resurrection**"

 "Nature"

 "Die Glocke"
 "**The Beginning Part 2**"
Time

## Nature

According to Primaries, Time evolved alongside Man, with each influencing the other.

#### Fundamentally altered by Time Travel

With James Cole's first trip to the past, Time changes from something that "always moves in one direction" to being "driven crazy."

## Circular Loops

* "The Beginning is the End"
* "No Beginning, No Ends"
* "Chicken. Egg."
* Ouroboros
* "Creating the problems we're trying to solve."

#### Known Instances

* Time travel was needed to create time travel in the first place.José Ramse needed to be sent back in time through the Machine in order to fund Raritan Laboratories (which created the Machine) and Markridge's creation of the virus (which motivates Jones to crack time travel).
* James Cole ensuring his own existence. Cole needed to save his mother when she was a baby at Spearhead, so he could later be born.
* Mantis's daughter Olivia is also her mother. Mantis was grown from Olivia's ova, but she would later need to give birth to Olivia to be born.
* Jones needed help from her future self in order to crack the time travel serum. So where did the solution come from?
* Hannah needed to pass on the Ouroboros poem to James Cole, but she only learns of it from from him in the future.
* Leland Goines only learns about the virus in the Annapurna Remains from Cole, who has journeyed back in time to after the virus causes the apocalyptic future.
* Cole learns about Thomas Crawford after seeing a message left by himself at the Emerson Hotel.

## Timeline Changes

Very few events caused the timeline to shift, as actions in the past usually reinforced what was already happening.

* The death of Cassandra Railly
* The destruction of the Kalavirus
North Korea

## Background

**North Korea** is a Communist counry in Asia.

## Appearances

James Cole was accidentally splintered to the **North Korea** of 2006. Jones managed to execute a slingshot to get him to Philadelphia in 2015, but not before the North Koreans took pictures of him and took the note with the addres of J. D. Peoples Mental Hospital.
Symbols

The **Symbols** are mysterious iconography used by the Army of the 12 Monkeys, which also appear in visions to Primaries, such as Jennifer Goines. Their meaning is as-yet unknown.

Given that their leader the Witness (Athan Cole) is himself a Primary, the symbols appeared to him in visions as well - and as he later revealed to Jennifer, he himself doesn't actually know what they mean.

One symbol is prominently used on the Amulet carried by the Army's leading members.

Another set appears in the circular clockface design that decorates the floor in some of their installations. These actually may or may not be part of *the* symbols, as the TV showrunners confirmed that they are Aramaic (apparently just numbering the clock, though why Aramaic was used is unknown).

The full set of symbols are a sprawling design filling pages and pages of Jennifer's vision-based drawings.

Ouroboros Puzzle

The **Ouroboros Puzzle** is an ancient artifact passed down and protected by many generations of individuals who appear to be connected to Primaries. The puzzle, once unlocked, reveals a clue that may lead to the breaking of the Great Cycle. The solution to the puzzle lies in a poem written by Marion Woods.

## Description

The exterior of the puzzle is designed into the shape of a snake eating its own tail, also known as an Ouroboros. The interior of the puzzle consists of seven painted dials with several images on each dial. Each image is representative of a person, place, or thing within Marion's poem. By turning each dial to align chronologically with the poem, the serpent's head unlocks from his tail. Stored within the snake's head is a piece of cloth with the words "Blackleaf May 11, 1852" printed on it.

## History

### Middle Ages

The origin of the Ouroboros Puzzle remains unknown. At an unspecified time in the Middle Ages, the puzzle was handed down from a man to a young Primary girl with instructions to keep it safe. She repeats the name "James Cole" as the puzzle is handed to her.

### 2018

The puzzle resurfaces at an Ouroboros exhibition in Prague in 2018. Guided by her Primary visions, Jennifer Goines tracks the artifact down and steals it from the museum. She is pursued by Interpol Detective Bonham, who comes from a line of individuals sworn to protect the artifact.

The authorities track Jennifer down to a train station. Jennifer stages a daring escape by hurling herself in front of a train and into the arms of a splintering James Cole. Jennifer drops the artifact amid her escape and it falls into the possession of Bonham.

Jennifer arranges a meeting between herself, Bonham, and Cole. Once Cole sees the device, he remembers his mother's poem, as as a result, the solution to the puzzle. He unlocks the device and discovers the clue hidden within it.

## Marion's Poem

### Background

James Cole's mother, Marion Woods, wrote a poem describing a snake that is cursed to chase its own tail. The imagery in the poem contains many metaphors about the Army of the 12 Monkeys and time travel. At some point, the poem was tucked into a copy of The Wizard of Oz. It was discovered there by James and Matthew Cole in 2015.

In 2018, after discovering the Ouroboros artifact, Cole remembered the story and was able to tie out each phase of the poem to one of the images on the puzzle.
Marcus Whitley

## Relationships

Captain Frank Whitley (father)

**Whitley** was a sergeant in Project Splinter's military arm. He shared a mutual disrespect with Cole and Ramse.

## Timeline

### 2033

Prior to this time, Whitley was living at Spearhead. After Jonathan Foster instigated a coup and took over, he left with Katarina Jones for Project Splinter. This caused him to be estranged from his father, who remained at Spearhead as Foster's head of security.

### 2041

Whitley captured Cole and Ramse when they attempted to steal food from a group of Jones' subordinates. He interrogated them and beat them badly.

### 2043

Ramse and Whitley went on patrol in the area around the Temporal Facility. When they encountered Max, Ramse knocked Whitley out.

Whitley went with Ramse to Spearhead to request a stabilizer manifold from Foster so that Jones could repair the time machine. He met his father for the first time in 10 years.

Whitley persuaded his father to turn against Foster and help Jones take Spearhead's energy core by force.

After Ramse stole a special drug needed for splintering, Whitley led a group of soldiers from Project Splinter to find him. When one of his men, Eager soldier killed Elena, he immediately shots him to prevent Elena's group from attacking them. Afterwards, he refused to pursue Ramse any further, telling Jones to leave him alone so he could be a father to Sam. Later, he confronted Ramse when the latter returned to the Temporal Facility; Ramse knocked out Whitley again.

Whitley came to have a drink with Jones after Cole was sent to 2015 and lost in time, saying Project Splinter was over. After Jones stubbornly insisted that the mission was not over, he nearly wept as he recounted the sacrifices he had made for her. He then left Project Splinter with his soldiers.

A terrified Whitley later returned to the Temporal Facility in shock, holding a severed human head that had been pinned to his hands by unknown assailants using knives. He said only, "They're coming."

Primaries

**Primaries** are evolved human beings with deep connections to time itself. Primaries help time "think." Without Primaries, time would be unable to function.

## Background

Primaries evolved over hundreds of thousands of years. Much like how man evolved from earlier primates, time also evolved. Some individuals who evolved alongside time, known as Primaries, are inextricably linked to time. They have the ability to see the changes in time and can keep track of multiple timelines. As a result, Primaries give off the impression of being insane.

## Paradoxes

Compared to gears in a clock, Primaries are a support system for time. As a result, if Primaries are paradoxed, the structure of time is weakened. If enough Primaries are paradoxed, time will collapse and cease to exist. This is the basis of the Army of the 12 Monkeys' mission. The Messengers are a group of assassins sent back through time to paradox Primaries with knives made of bone from their future selves. Their ultimate goal is to bring about an eternal Red Forest free of the passage of time.

It is important to note that a natural death does not harm time. Only the paradoxing of a Primary will weaken the very structure of time.

## Known Primaries

* Jennifer Goines (dies in 2044)
* Thomas Crawford Jr. (paradoxed in 1944)
* Jim Morrison (dies in 1971)
* Kyle Slade (dies in 1975)
* Melinda Duchamp (paradoxed in 1957)
* Lillian
* Athan Cole (murdered in 1959)

Jinn

The Jinn, also referred to as the Great Cycle, refers to a large and neverending time loop. The Jinn consists of a series of causal loops, with no clear beginning or end. Instead, it is a neverending series of events that are both the cause and effect of each other.

A causal loop results in the lines between cause and effect being blurred. An event may cause another event, and due to time travel, be the effect of that very same event. As a result, such a loop has no discernable beginning or end. Individuals who are motivated by an event to go back in time to try and stop it may find themselves to be the causes of the event all along. Numerous causal loops have been seen to date on 12 Monkeys and appear to make up the larger, seemingly unbreakable Jinn.

## Examples of Causal Loops

Numerous examples of causal loops can be found in 12 Monkeys. As described above, these loops all make up the larger Jinn. The following list of examples, while not comprehensive, describes key causal loops within the series.

* The creation of time travel: Project Splinter is financed by time traveler Jose Ramse, who came back in time by using the very time machine he helped financed.
* Olivia & The Messengers: Dr. Kirschner creates Olivia by using the eggs of Mantis, a Messenger, as a model. Decades later, Olivia's eggs are used to create the Messengers, including Mantis herself. In 2043, Mantis goes back in time, where her eggs are used by Dr. Kirschner to create Olivia.

* CIA Report: Cassie and Ramse learn of a redacted CIA report from 1961 mentioning Titan in 2044. They travel back to 1961 and begin asking Mossad agents about Titan. The unredacted report mentions the two's line of questioning, but nothing else, meaning Cassie and Ramse created the very lead they were following.
Agent Stack

**Agent Stack** was an FBI agent from the 1940s.

## History

### Season 2

Stack was an FBI agent and partner to Robert Gale. He was a bit of a rebel, drinking on duty etc. He was assigned to protect Thomas Crawford, Sr. He encountered Cole. After Crawford Sr. was found murdered, Gale immediately suspected Cole and Railly's involvement and he and Stack went on the hunt for them. They later showed up at the scene of Tommy Jr.'s murder, expressing bewilderment at the aftermath of the temporal paradox.

They found and took Cole and Railly into custody and began interrogating them in secret, with Stack beating up Cole and demanding to know whether he was a Nazi spy. Ramse rescued Cole and Railly knocking Stack unconscious.

Henri Toussaint

## Relationships

Cassandra Railly (slept with)

**Henri Toussaint** was a doctor originally from Haiti. He had worked in the Night Room for the Markridge Group.

## Timeline

### 2013

Henri was present when a group of agents of the Army of the 12 Monkeys, led by the Pallid Man, broke into a Markridge laboratory and killed everyone except him and Jennifer Goines.

### 2014

Henri returned to his native country to help contain a viral outbreak. He worked with Cassandra Railly, with whom he became intimate. Cole splintered back to 2014 and, after helping Henri fight off the Pallid Man, he learned from Henri that the Night Room could be located because of the specialized equipment it used. Cole then killed Henri to prevent him from talking to anyone else.
Emerson Hotel

The **Emerson Hotel** was a hotel which James Cole, Cassandra Railly, José Ramse, Jennifer Goines and Hannah Jones used as a base of operations while time traveling.

## Timeline

### 1944

At this time, the Emerson was a popular upscale hotel. When pursuing the Messengers to 1944, Cole and Railly decided to use the hotel as a meeting point to coordinate their arrivals. Cole arrived there first and purchased room 607.

After their mission failed, Cole, Railly, and Ramse stayed at the hotel while waiting for Jones to bring them back to 2044. Robert Gale later entered room 607 and placed the photo of Cole and Railly there, writing T.H. Crawford's name on the back.

### 2016

By this time, the hotel had become dilapidated and run-down, a shadow of its former glory. Jennifer brought Cole there after the latter was stranded in 2016. The manager recognized Cole and gave him the key to room 607, saying that a James Cole had purchased the room in perpetuity in 1944. Inside, Cole found numerous artifacts, including a photo of himself and Railly from 1944 with the name of T.H. Crawford written on the back.

Jennifer often visited the hotel with her friends, hoping to see Cole again. Taking advantage of this, when Railly splintered to 2016 to ask Jennifer about the Primaries, she went to the hotel, knowing that she would most likely find Jennifer there.
