Theo James (Henry): You hang on to things from the past, like the past matters any more. You… you worry about the future, and it’s not even here yet, when the only time is now. That’s the only time there ever is. Now. The past is what didn’t kill you, the future is what definitely will, and in between is the only thing that matters. You. You and me… right now. You and me… right now.

Rose Leslie (Clare): Why does sеx with you always make me feel like I’m going to hell? Henry: I don’t know…but it is the single greatest compliment I’ve ever been paid. Lock the door. [They start to kiss, pushes her to bed. Just then a voice comes through the wall]

Peter Graham (Mark Abshire): Hey, Clare! Put him down. Lunch in five!

Clare: Okay, lunch. We’re due at the table. [She pushes him off as he grunts]

The Time Traveler’s Wife Promo Episode Five (HD)

After the disastrous dinner with friends in Episode 4, what could happen now when Henry meets Clare’s family for the first time? Another disaster of sorts. Everything is already problematic with Henry being a time traveler and all. But is amplified by the fact that Clare belongs to the ‘old rich’. The couple go to Clare’s ancestral home in Michigan which also happens to be a historic architectural landmark.

Henry meeting Clare’s well to do parents was not as dramatic or funny in the novel (or the movie version). In the series it’s an opportunity to expand it, make it more dramatic and maybe more entertaining in the process. This has been the Steven Moffat modus operandi the whole season, head writer, series creator, executive producer.

Alicia

Meeting Clare’s sister Alicia Abshire was also a surprise when she literally jumps on Henry while hiding in the bathroom. Taylor Richardson plays the sexually aggressive Alicia, not unlike Clare. This is a juicer role for Richardson who was also in another HBO series, THE GILDED AGE and Netflix’s ALL TOGETHER NOW. Set in 1882, THE GILDED AGE is about the rising wealth and power of a railroad tycoon and their conflict with established New York elite. Morgan Spectre plays robber baron George Russell.

Mark

Another expanded role is Clare’s brother Mark played by Peter Graham. He was hardly mentioned in the book, non-existent in the movie. In the series Mark is an annoying character out to get Henry and humiliate the young couple in front of their parents.

The role as a stuck up, budding lawyer is a complete departure from his TV debut in WILL & GRACE (2020) Bi-plane episode. This is where, Grace is having difficulty accepting her niece marrying a bisexual (Trevor) played by Peter Graham. He shows his versatility as an actor performing both roles convincingly and with ease.

Gomez

Henry’s immaturity has always been in the forefront and a source of conflict with Clare. Hardly anyone notices Gomez bitchiness, one of Clare’s best friends, who is just as hard headed and petty. Played by Desmin Borges who is of Puerto Rican descent, like Natasha Lopez who plays his wife Charisse (also Clare’s BFF).

Both Henry and Gomez are surprised by their future selves devotion to each other and gives in eventually to the friendship they didn’t expect.

Borges has a ton of TV roles in the past but is best known as Edgar Quintero in YOU’RE THE WORST, followed by LIVING WITH YOURSELF, UTOPIA and WELCOME TO FLATCH.

Growth

More than any other episode this is where we see characters change. We may not notice it but love has the power to change us in ways we didn’t expect. Usually, it’s for the better. IF it’s someone who genuinely cares for you, they’d want you to grow as a person. They both change each other without noticing it.

Henry realizes the best way to make Clare happy is to become the man she fell in love with, his future self.

HBO GO – PLDT

The series is also available on HBO GO, their streaming service. PLDT has a promo which slashes the regular price. It’s a great deal considering it includes many more award winning series like the upcoming WESTWORLD (season 4) and GAME OF THRONES prequel HOUSE OF THE DRAGON, even BARRY (season 3 – created and starred in by SNL legend Bill Hader). Taking advantage of the promo before HOUSE OF THE DRAGON premiere in August would be wise.

You can actually stream the first episode for free on the official HBO website:
