How time-travel ⏳️⏰️🌗 /dimension-hopping could be used in future seasons:
Will they actually go there and reveal "The Board" is somehow future/alternate MDR/O&D Alliance members?
I doubt they would go this far...but, maybe. They kept teasing working together as Kier always intended. But nothing became of it yet.
With Keanu being the Lumon Building voice, anything is possible, but I would envision the vibe would quickly switch to a Bill & Ted Excellent Adventure with an emotional anchor pulling heartstrings.
Would they show everyone becoming Kier's children then use time travel to undo it?
I think there is morbid curiosity both ways. We want to see what a full world-building exploit would be like if everyone on earth became severed, but we also know how miserable it would be and how unsustainable the administration would be trying to maintain it. Lumon wants all the control, but is so bad at managing said control. The humor we could witness is almost limitless as Murphy's Law would make for highly entertaining cat & mouse cause and effect TV. SO revealing that the MDR twins and Watchers and "Man in Hallway" were iterations trying to break through and prevent a Kier's Children Apocalypse would be very exciting and hype the stakes involved.
And with Walter Bishop already being Fields, anything is possible. Requiring a sacrifice, revolving back into a S1 LOOP (from half-loop to full loop), preventing the original prototype chip from ever being created, preventing Harmony from ever attending ME (Myrtle Eagan)// preventing Jame Eagan from ever creating the situation where he sires in the shadows, etc., it would be sad yet noble if it meant that saving the world from 24/7 severing meant Helena Eagan had to either never be born or never do the PR stunt and thus never allow Helly to be born. We still need to know how Helena's mother fits into everything and if Fern Scout is a key player.
A new timeline would be created and whatever "The Board" currently is would probably fade away and we would see a Lumon not focused on world domination, but on non-invasive pain management.
