Episode talk:Gone
From The 4400 Wiki, a fan encyclopedia that anyone can edit.
Should this be divided into two seperate episodes? I'm thinking maybe it should, because unlike The New World, these are airing a week apart. --Mateo 17:24, 19 June 2006 (EDT)
- Hmm, I think we should retain some consistency with other two-parters, maybe have different sections (Part One, Part Two, etc) --Vigilyn 17:30, 19 June 2006 (EDT)
While the five children were gone, wouldn't it have been The 4395? Or were five additional other people abducted and returned, and if so, who were they?
It depends if the name "4400" refers to the total number of people taken (regardless of when/where they were returned. 4400 were taken and 4400 were returned, thus they can be called the 4400. The decision to return them further back in the timeline doesn't change that; it was a correction made after the fact. --Caroline 20:54, 9 August 2006 (EDT)
That makes sense for naming the television show, but not for the characters in the show. IIRC, they did computer searches for Maia and found nothing, but still referred to the returnees as "4400s". If Maia and the other children were removed from NTAC's database, the total number of returnees would be reduced. Perhaps the future folk abducted more than 4400, then returned five extra when they re-abducted the children? If so then perhaps we can look forward to an episode focusing on those five (unless they were re-abducted when the children were returned). In any case, too bad we didn't get to hear more about those lunar colonies :).'
- This is just one of the moments where you have to forget about things like that.

[edit] Vaccination
Maia died of smallpox at 25 when she was sent even further back. She was born in 1938. Shouldn't she have been vaccinated? The Radio Star 13:36, 3 October 2006 (EDT)
[edit] Merging "Gone Kidnapping" into this article
The Gone kidnapping was an attempt by the People from the Future to complete their goal. Their enemies sent Isabelle to destroy the 4400 and disrupt their mission. In order to "counteract that evil," they had to take five 4400 children and send them to 19th and early 20th century America with new knowledge.
Each of the children were given new knowledge or missions. Tyler Downing graduated first in his class from Yale engineering school in 1893, and invented synthetic oil in 1919. Lindsey Hammond was adopted by Robert Goddarard, a pioneering rocket scientist, and invented composite materials used in lunar colonies. Maia was sent back to the year 1832, but died of smallpox in October 1847 at the age of 25, without having affected the future in any foreseeable way.
Because Diana lost Maia, she became very depressed and entered an alternative reality with the help of Alana.

[edit] Arc Significance
Tyler Downing invents synthetic oil in this alterative timeline. Jordan Collier said in Terrible Swift Sword that all of the world's resources were collected by a small group of people.
