How I would open tua season 3
If they used the alternate selves in the timeline:
Dark stage. The Umbrella Academy theme starts playing (the one Vanya plays on her violin in season 1 episode 1) except with an electric guitar.
We don’t see the face, just hands playing on a dark stage.
Cut to the plant from Luther’s moon base. Pull out to reveal it is one of many plants Alternate!Luther is tending to. He has his body before the accident, he’s in the sunshine, he’s happy.
Cut to scene of the family being robbed. Same as before, a man in the shadows saves them. This time we see his police badge before we see Alternate!Diego’s face (free of scars.)
(And yes before you ask his charatcer arc in season 3 will be realizing how terrible the police force is.)
Alternate!Allison walks down a red carpet. Cameras flash. Pull up, the carpet is just a hallway. A little girl runs up and hugs her: Claire. She picks her up and they smile together for a camera. The camera is lowered revealing Patrick.
An orchestra’s rehearsal room. We see musicians taking their seats, readying their instruments. We don’t see Alternate!Vanya until we get to the front of the room. There she stands, baton in hand. She isn’t a musician, she’s the conductor. The music laid out in front of her is titled The White Violin- Vanya “last name.”
Sparrow!Ben in his uniform. He stands in front of the paparazzi, covered in flecks of flood. His team stands behind him. They’ve just saved another bank.
Each time we see a sibling, their number pops up just like the first episode of season 1, but then is crossed out and replaced with the same first name but different last names.
Cut back to the guitar on stage. Again, the musician is kept in shadow but more sound filters in. There’s a shouting audience. More lights, smoke, a band appears behind the guitar player.
Similar to the first episode we then flash over to each (ex) sibling watching a news story but this time it’s of the (new) Hargreeves foiling the bank robbery. Each looks on with a flicker of confusion, but then shake their heads. It’s nothing, it’s normal. They just imagined the sense of deja vu.
Final scene is of the stage, this time with a full band behind the guitarist and a cheering audience. We pan up to see Alternate!Klaus holding the guitar. At the crescendo the crowd goes wild. He holds the note and smiles at the audience, happy with the performance.
We follow Klaus walking backstage. His band clap him on the back. He turns a corner to find:
A portal opens. Our Five tumbles through.
