Crossroads

Dark 1×7

Ulrich Nielsen: Is it possible that he... purely hypothetically, is it possible he's been dead for longer, and was somehow preserved?
Pathologist Edda Heimann: Preserved? You mean, like frozen? If so there would be traces in the tissue. I would've noticed. Frozen steak isn't like fresh steak. ... How long of a preservation period are we talking about?
Ulrich Nielsen: Thirty-three years.

Helge Doppler: I can change it. I can change the past. And the future. Tick-tock. Tick-tock. Tick-tock.

The Stranger: How little we understand of the world...

Jonas Kahnwald: Is this real? Or am I crazy, just like my father? Do you even exist? Or are you the hallucination of a lunatic?
The Stranger: You're not crazy, neither was your father.

The Stranger: Sometimes it's hard for us to grasp things that go against all we are conditioned to believe. How did people feel the first time they were told the Earth was round?
Jonas Kahnwald: Yes, it is. It's totally insane.
The Stranger: And if it's not?

Jonas Kahnwald: So Mikkel hangs out here until he becomes my father?
The Stranger: Even if you don't want to believe it, that is your father.
Jonas Kahnwald: That means... that Ulrich is my grandfather and...
The Stranger: Martha is your aunt.

The Stranger: Don't you get it? If you take Mikkel back, you'll be meddling in the course of events. Your father will never meet your mother, they won't fall in love or get married. And you won't be born! If you take him back now, you'll be erasing your own existence. The role you play in all of this is much bigger than you think. But every decision for something is a decision against something else. A life for a life. What will you decide?

Ulrich Nielsen: "Why not forest road?" What does that mean? Egon Tiedemann wanted to ask him that. "Why not forest road?"

Jana Nielsen: You can never give up hope. There's as much light out there as there is darkness. Don't forget that.

Ulrich Nielsen: The question isn't who abducted the children, but when. I was right, Helge Doppler. Not now, but in 1986. Call me back immediately when you get this.
