The Alternate Timeline is a version of both the Prime and Alternate Universes in which Peter Bishop died as a Peter was never saved by the Observer in the Alternate Timeline
young boy. In this timeline, the drowning boy was not saved at Reiden Lake by September after crossing universes with Walter Bishop. As a result, there are many differences between the Alternate Timeline and the Original Timeline that Peter had lived in. The Alternate Timeline was seemingly created after Peter drew the two universes together by The Vacuum. Moments after this, he flickered out of existence. The Observers outside commented on the fact that no one remembered him. An Alternate Timeline is different from an Alternate Universe (Both the Prime Universe and Alternate Universe are a part of the same timeline, though dimensionally separated). As such, both universes were affected by Peter's death.
The Alternate Timeline was created immediately following Peter Bishop's activation of The Vacuum. Peter's sacrifice resulted in the bridging of the two universes, as well as the creation of a new timeline in which he was not saved by September in Reiden Lake. In the Original Timeline, September distracting Walternate resulted in Peter living in this universe. This caused a paradox that would result in the destruction of the Alternate Universe (and a dying Prime Universe in 2026) when Peter entered the machine. To rectify the paradox, the machine created the new timeline, so that both Peters ended up dying in 1985, expunging him from the timeline. This would allow the machine to form a bridge without Peter's influence and set the universes on track.
Peter continued to bleed through into the new timeline, prompting the Observers to want him permaneantly erased. September, however, perhaps suffering a crisis of faith or responding to an innate conscience that Observers typically seem to lack, had one more plan up his sleeve. He believed that, if Peter and Olivia were to be together, Peter wouldn't have to be erased. Therefore, he could live a happy life with Olivia and the universes would be set back on track, despite the temporary deviations from the natural order. Their relationship culminated in the birth of Henrietta Bishop.
Differences Between The Original and Alternate TimelineEdit
Among the major differences:
Peter Bishop died as a child in the Prime Universe and the Peter Bishop from the Alternate Universe drowned in Reiden Lake.
Walter Bishop hates Nina Sharp in this timeline for intervening in his plan to save Peter Bishop in the alternate universe and breaking the vial of the cure that Walter intended to use to cure Peter on the other side.
After Peter died in Reiden Lake Walter became angry with god and planned to destroy both universes.but he asked William Bell to remove portions of his brain after he realised that he was smart enough to destroy both universes to create a third.William Bell continued what Walter started years later.
From the moment the Alternate Timeline was created, parts of Peter Bishop were bleeding through, even though he had been erased. This had been pointed out by the Observers. Peter began appearing to Walter, who was terrified and confused. Later, in what appears to be a massive influx of energy, Peter appeared in Reiden Lake. However, much to his shock and dismay, no one in the Alternate Timeline recognized who he was. This led to Peter's speculation that he was not, in fact, home, but somewhere else, setting him off on a goal to return to his home. As it turned out, Peter was home all along. According to September, the reason Peter could not be permaneantly erased was because the people he loved (and who loved him) could not give up. Their love kept him from being entirely stamped out.
It was confirmed by September that the Alternate Timeline is still Peter's home. Both universes are the same universes from prior to Peter's erasure. The only difference is that Peter had been temporarily erased and returned to the newly impacted universes. With this new information, the Original Timeline as things had initially played out is believed to have been replaced with this alternate history.
