You may want to make sure that your CC warranty covers products that aren ' t brand new . <| sep |> In my theory the little girl only exists in the present . The moment you see the girl in the steeple city the shot actually changes to what present day Dolores is seeing . There are visual hints when you see the present and the past . In the present the scenes colors are more vivid and more warm . I agree about the color temperature , but mostly in reference to the overall warmer tones of the William scenes compared to the TeddyMIB scenes . But I think you are wrong in interpreting the little girl in the present scene . I don ' t think we have gotten into the present to the point where a present massacre begins . Besides . Dolores is wearing the blue dress talking to the girl , this is crystal clear . The blue dress is the signpost to the early white church . Dolores in gunslinger garb is the present Dolores that is how she is dressed alone on the train in the very shots you mention . That is how she appears as she looks over the newly built but empty white church , before she enters and the shot shifts into memory mode and she shifts into blue dress .
