It's just like she said. He's not brave. He's a coward and a wimp. He's afraid of change, and didn't want to lose her. Like that time... Like that blue bird. Diana apologizes. They're getting into the pods again? Oh, right, they "look like beds". Diana says she has a dream, and Sigma knows that she wants to go to the moon. She's been obsessed with it since she was a kid. Even her name, Diana, comes from the goddess of the moon. (Well, close enough.) Diana asks how he knows so much about her. Sigma says that he's lived with her for three years. In the future, his past. He uses his legs as a multiverse. Right now, they're on the right knee, but he was talking about the left leg path. She asks if he's really from the future. She does believe him; it makes the dream better.

Three months later. Diana says she needs to tell Sigma something. She may be... her hands are over her stomach.

11/16/2029. Roughly nine months after Diana's drunken outburst. A crying baby. A healthy boy. And Diana says she still feels something. She thinks there's another. There's two. Fraternal twins. Sigma asks if she realized. She says she had a hunch, but couldn't be sure. Sigma's glad she managed to give birth safely, even in a place like this. Diana thanks him. He gave up his own food once he knew she was pregnant. He says he never believed in unconditional love, that in the back of his mind, he always believed he was expecting recompense whenever he helped someone. But now, he believes he'd give his life for them. That they survive...that's all he asks. Then he turns to Gab. That biscuit he just gave Gab was the last one. There's none left. He thanks Gab for everything, listening to him while he was in pain. He says there's something he wants to show Diana. The transporter's turned on. But there are only two input pods...he wants to transport them. He reminds Diana that their original bodies will stay here. But they're out of food. If they do nothing, they'll all just starve and die. It takes ten months to charge, so this is the last chance to use it. Diana asks when they should send them to. Sigma says not the future; it's too dangerous. And not the near past, either. Sometime before Zero obtains this device. Sometime before the year 2009. Holy shit, man. I was right about needing to know Phi's birthday! The clues were all there. I even noted that her big reveal about being a redhead was kind of obvious seeing her in scenes with Diana, because even though Phi dyes her hair, their eyebrows are the same color. But wow, that's sneaky. Sigma asks if Diana thought of a name, and Diana asks the same of Sigma. They promised, she'd name it if it was a boy, and he would if it's a girl. Diana comes up with the name "Delta", after her first initial and his Greek letter theme naming. Sigma says he was thinking of a Greek letter, too. The one that means the most to him. Phi. He wants to name her after the Phi they knew. And then Diana says that it's not right if someone changes their names now that they've given them to them. And she sends Phi's brooch back in time with baby Phi. And with Delta, the Blue Bird music box. Answers, we have them! "The Twins' Birthday" and "Mother's Mementos".

Hot damn. You know, I vaguely remember a throwaway line in VLR about Phi telling old man Sigma that he's not her father. I did think it odd that both those characters were named after Greek letters, but... This is truly crazy. I shouldn't be surprised in a series that has so many time travel shenanigans, but I am. What a trip.
