I thought the arc kept jumping back and forth, i.e. - 18 months ago, 10 months ago, 4 months ago, until they wouldn't show how long ago that event was taking, which led me to believe it was present day. I assumed that when Boomer stole away with Ellen, it was real time activity, but you could be right - they could have been running for a period of time, and possibly went to some locale for reasons as of yet unknown.
