QUOTES (19)
ADD QUOTES-
Mark: I didn't just lose consciousness; my consciousness went somewhere else.
-
Aaron: Even if this future stuff is real, maybe it's a blessing in disguise... Ghost of Christmas future crap.
-
Mark: I was drinking again in my flash forward and, in my head, I knew it wasn't just a one-time thing.
-
Nicole: I think God did this.
Mark: Why?
Nicole: To punish us. -
Aaron: You're worried your future's gonna come true. I'm worried mine won't.
-
(A medical expert is being interviewed on TV)
Medical Correspondent: When the world-wide blackout occured, earlier today, people were undergoing brain scans at that exact moment.
Interviewer: So, like MRIs, or PET scans, that kind of thing?
Medical Correspondent: Exactly, and in each of these cases, the hippocampus, the memory center of the brain, was actively engaged for the entire two minutes and seventeen seconds. These thought patterns are consistent with a waking experience. People were not asleep, they were not dreaming.
Interviewer: So then, what is it that they were experiencing?
Medical Correspondent: Well, by all appearances, memories of events that haven't occurred yet. -
Stan: So you're saying what? Everyone's consciousness just jumped forward six months to April 29th?
Mark: Crazy as that sounds, yeah. -
Nicole: Sweetheart, are you okay?
Charlie: I had a bad dream. I dreamt there are no more good days. -
Nurse: You're lucky you have a girl.
Olivia: Are you kidding me? You only have to worry about one penis. I got to worry about all of them. -
Mark: Come on, Aaron, just call. She's cool.
Aaron: Nurses freak me out, man.
Mark: It's a date. She's not giving you a frigging enema.
Aaron: How do you know that's not my thing? -
Mark: We've been saying people have been blacking out, but that wasn't my experience. More like a dream.
-
Mark: Just because we saw these things doesn't mean they're gonna happen.
-
Mark: What did you see?
Olivia: I was with another man... I've never seen him before. -
Bryce: (talking about his flashforward) I saw a glimpse of my future and everything's changed for me now.
-
Mark: (talking about his flashforward) I was drinking again. The anxiety, the shame, it was all back.
-
Demetri: What if I didn't see anything because six months from now I'm going to be dead?
-
Mark: I didn't just lose consciousness. I was having a memory, but only it was the future.
-
Olivia: We were in the middle of surgery and we all lost consciousness, everyone.
Mark: Well, looks like this thing is global. -
Stan: The whole world is on pins and needles people. Find out what caused this!

NOTES (8)
ADD NOTES-
The episode won an Emmy Award for Outstanding Stunt Coordination.
-
Injoke: David S. Goyer and executive producer Marc Guggenheim chose the name "D. Gibbons" in tribute to comic book artist Dave Gibbons, best known for illustrating the acclaimed graphic novel Watchmen.
-
Injoke: Before the blackout, while Mark and Demetri are taking photos of the mysterious woman and the men with her, a billboard can be seen in the background which advertises Oceanic Airlines. Oceanic is the airline company which the castaways were flying on before it crashed in ABC's hit show Lost.

ALLUSIONS (2)
ADD ALLUSIONS-
Everyone in the world was unconscious for exactly two minutes and seventeen seconds. This could be an allusion to a passage in the Bible (ACTS 2;17) which reads: "... And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh, and your sons and your daughters shall prophesize, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams".
-
Oceanic Airlines:
Before the blackout, while Mark and Demetri are taking photos of the mysterious woman and the men with her, a billboard can be seen in the background which advertises Oceanic Airlines. Oceanic is the airline company which the castaways were flying on before it crashed in ABC's hit show Lost. This is most likely a reference to the fact that FlashForward is considered to be the next Lost.
