Special Agent Walt Forbes (Traveler 4112 and Traveler 4991) is Grant MacLaren's partner at the FBI as well as one of his closest friends.

Walt had his consciousness overwritten by Traveler 4112 and subsequently by Traveler 4991 after it was discovered that Traveler 4112 was a member of The Faction. (S2E01: Ave Machina, S2E06: U235)

Averted Death[]

Walt didn't technically have an 'averted death'. He, among other people in the FBI, was sent a text to meet in the room where the quantum frame was being held. For a while, it was believed that the Quantum Frame had a bomb which would go off if anyone tried to destroy it, which later turned out to be untrue. In reality, the Faction had hijacked the quantum frame and were taking over the bodies of hosts who weren't destined to die. (S2E01: Ave Machina, S2E05: Jenny)

History[]

4112 Future History[]

Traveler 4112 was a member of the Faction, fighting against control of the Director. Before the Director was shut down, his consciousness was sent through to the quantum frame and later to Walt Forbes' body.

Walter Forbes[]

Walt was an FBI Special Agent alongside Grant MacLaren, his partner, for many years.

Traveler 4112[]

Just after transferring consciousness, Traveler 4112 struggles to adjust to life in the 21st century. He mentioned to Grant MacLaren at one point that he accidentally went into the wrong bathroom and asks Grant to drive since he doesn't know how to. (S2E02: Protocol 4)

Walt, along with other Faction members from the army, tries to stop Grant from leaving a nuclear weapon where the Director is destined to be built. He knew by doing this that the Faction's plan to control overpopulation with the virus would fail as it powered the Director long enough for him to send the cure and overwrite some of the Faction travelers. He failed and Grant chased him to the edge of a cliff where he was overwritten by traveler 4991. (S2E06: U235)

Traveler 4991[]

After overwriting traveler 4112, he explains that what Grant and the rest of the team did was enough to power the Director for three seconds, in which he was able to transfer consciousness to overwrite him and Jenny (possibly among others) and send a cure for the disease which the Faction had spread.
