The Umbrella Academy, Season 1

by multiple writers and directors

Of the 43 children born 1 October 1989 with no gestation period, the eccentric and sometimes cruel billionaire Reginald Hargreeves brought up seven of them and turned them into the super-powered group called the Umbrella Academy when they developed powers. Nearly thirty years later, after Hargreeves dies, the five surviving members of the group gather at their family home. Oh, and: Number Six died some time ago and only Number Four can see him; Number Five disappeared about seventeen years ago, but he’s back (and in his 13-year-old body) after living 45 years in a post-apocalyptic future that’s scheduled to start in eight days.
— Michael Main
As far as I could tell, I was the last person left alive. I never figured out what killed the human race. I did find something else: the date it happens. . . . The world ends in eight days, and I have no idea how to stop it.

  • Hypertime: Despite the fact that the Commission’s headquarters is sometimes labeled as being in the 1950s, we’re convinced that it exists in a hypertime from which it can see and manipulate a single “real-world” timeline.

TIME TRAVEL ITINERARY (SPOILERS!)
  1. From the street outside the family compound, a day when the trees had no leaves, circa 2003 ⋙ to same street, a day when the trees are green. Note: Flashback in [s01e02]: Number Five begins his time travel.
  2. From an unknown time ⋙ to same street, a snowy day. Note: Flashback in [s01e02].
  3. From an unknown time ⋙ to same street, right after the apocalypse on or shortly after [d]1 April 2020[/d]. Note: Final scene of the flashback in [s01e02]: Five finds the newspaper.
  4. From unspecified place, decades after the apocalypse ⋙ to a Commission facility, outside of time. Note: Another flashback to Five’s past in [s01e05]: He finally left the post-apocalyptic future with the handler.
  5. From a Commission facility, outside of time ⋙ to various locations and times, such as the Hindenburg Disaster, unknown time. Multiple round trips. Note: Flashback montage of Five’s assignments in [s01e05].
  6. From a Commission facility, outside of time ⋙ to Dallas, [d]23 November 1963[/d]. Note: Final flashback in [s01e05]: Five figures out the equation to take himself home.
  7. From near Dealey Plaza, Dallas, Texas, the morning of [d]22 November 1963[/d] ⋙ to outside the family compound, the afternoon of [d]24 March 2019[/d]. Note: Finally, as shown in [s01e05], Five (now 58, though he’s put back in his 13-year-old body) gets back to home, eight days before the apocalypse begins. That apocalypse will begin on 1 April 2019 (based on the newspaper Five saw), and it is on a Saturday (three days after the Wednesday of Episode 7). Never mind that 1 April 2019 was not a Saturday, nor was there a gibbous moon on that date; no doubt that inconsistency will be ironed out in future seasons.
  8. From a Commission facility, outside of time ⋙ to near Griddy’s Doughnuts, the evening of [d]24 March 2019[/d]. Note: [s01e01]: A gang of five short-lived hitmen attempt to take out Number Five in Episode 1, probably coming from the Committee headquarters, but we don’t know when.
  9. From a Commission facility, outside of time ⋙ to the Fortune Smiles motel, [d]24 March 2019[/d]. Note: [s01e02]: Cha-Cha and Hazel with their luggable time machine and plenty of firepower arrive in 2019.
  10. From a public bus, circa [d]26 March 2019[/d] ⋙ to Vietnam, circa 1968. Round trip. Note: [s01e04–06]: Klaus disappears with Cha-Cha and Hazel’s luggable time machine. In Episode 5, after ten months in 1968 Vietnam (partly shown in Episode 6), he returns to a bus on about the same date that he left, whereupon he destroys the machine.
  11. From a Commission facility, outside of time ⋙ to the family’s city, circa [d]26 March 2019[/d], during the fake suitcase incident. Round trip. Note: [s01e05]: The Handler travels to the fake suitcase incident.
  12. From a rural road, circa [d]26 March 2019[/d], after the fake suitcase incident ⋙ to a Commission facility, outside of time. Note: [s01e05]: Five and the Handler.
  13. From a Commission facility, outside of time ⋙ to the family compound, 8:15 a.m. on Wednesday*, [d]29 March 2019[/d]. Note: [s01e07]: Five returns to 2019, and we see how the day changes as a result. *No, not really a Wednesday. Please see above.
  14. From a Commission facility, outside of time ⋙ to Rain Quail Bed and Breakfast, Room 12, [d]1 April 2019[/d]. Round trip. Note: [s01e07]: Upon arriving, the Handler freezes time to break up the fight between Cha-Cha and Hazel.
  15. From a Commission facility, outside of time ⋙ to Superstar Lanes Bowling Alley and the Icarus Theatre, [d]1 April 2019[/d]. Note: [s01e10]: More goons from out of time.
