‘Timeless’ Season 1, Episode 7 Spoilers: “Stranded” – Team Struggles to Work Together for Survival After Time Machine Breaks Down

‘Timeless’ season 1’s episode 7, entitled “Stranded”, will follow the team as they reach 1754 only to find out that they have to work together to survive the hostile environment. After finding out that their machine has broken down, Rufus attempts to create a machine to communicate with the present.

The synopsis for episode 7 posted on Cartermatt stated, “The team chases Garcia Flynn (Goran Visnjic) to 1754, but after he reveals his true intentions, they’re forced to scramble through hostile territory. Now, if they want to survive, they’ll need to learn to trust each other.

Meanwhile, Agent Christopher (Sakina Jaffrey) quietly investigates Connor Mason (Paterson Joseph), and Jiya (Claudia Doumit) has a hunch that Rufus (Malcolm Barrett) might be resourceful enough to open a line of communication with the present.”

When the team land in a chaotic time before the American Revolution, they run into some major problems. In the promo, Wyatt (Matt Lanter), Lucy (Abigail Spencer), and Rufus (Malcolm Barrett) find themselves amidst battle and will need to cope with a hostile environment that involves gunfights, lots of running, and even getting captured.

Lucy warns, “We’re gonna have to work together. I can’t imagine a worst place. An era full of hostile forces and you know… smallpox.” When their time machine is shot and eventually breaks down, the team watch in horror as they realize that they are trapped in 1754.

However, there is hope that they can get through it as Jiya suspects that Rufus can somehow find a way to communicate with the present.

NBC also released a series of preview images ahead of the episode release on November 21, 2016. The various photographs posted on K Site TV showed Lucy, Wyatt, and Rufus attempting to do what they can in a forest territory.

In one of the images, Rufus looks to be creating a contraption made of wire and glass bottles, presumably as a form of machine to communicate with people in the present. They are soon captured and sent to a native camp where they have to bargain their way to freedom.

‘Timeless’ season 1’s episode 7, entitled “Stranded”, is scheduled to air on NBC on November 21, 2016. It will be followed by episode 8, entitled “Space Race”, scheduled for November 28.
